The happy life of a prodigal

Just for a moment.

The farmer appeared in front of Emperor Chu, "Your Majesty."

After such a short period of busy work, they were able to face the Emperor Chu calmly.

Because, they saw with their own eyes just now that Emperor Chu was also working in the fields!

In this way, the emperor may not be much different from them.

It's just that there are more people around, and they use gold hoes.

Emperor Chu never thought that they would think so, but asked, "Do you know how to eat these sweet potatoes?"

When Chu Huang said this, he felt a little nervous in his heart.

I'm afraid that the answers from these farmers will bring great joy and sorrow to myself.

The high yield of sweet potatoes, the main reason why they are so happy, is based on the fact that sweet potatoes are food and can be eaten.

If this sweet potato cannot be eaten.

Then it doesn't matter how high its output is.

The farmers looked at each other with puzzled expressions on their faces.

It took a lot of time to dig the sweet potatoes.

As an emperor, he doesn't even know how to eat?

This emperor is too stupid!

They thought so in their hearts, but the expressions on their faces did not change at all.

Instead, he replied respectfully: "Returning to Your Majesty, there are many ways to eat sweet potatoes. You can wash them and eat them directly. They are sweet and delicious.

It can also be roasted with fire, it is sweet and glutinous, or it can be boiled and eaten, it is also delicious, but I don’t know how to describe it, it is much better than ordinary porridge, very sweet.

Moreover, this food is very anti-hunger, much more anti-hunger than other grains, and I feel full of strength all over my body after eating a little!

Now we just dig sweet potatoes, eat sweet potatoes, occasionally eat one or two, and Qian Guanshi doesn't say anything. "

Manager Qian was referring to Qian Zheng.

Chu Huang was slightly taken aback, with a look of surprise on his face.

There are actually three ways to eat?And according to the old farmer, it seems to be delicious?

Very sweet?

how can that be?

In Emperor Chu's cognition, the way of heaven and earth is the way of the mean.

Everything maintains a balance.

In the book "Basic Physics" published by Zhuxuanzhai, this seems to be called energy conservation.

Anyway, it means the same thing.

That is to say, the yield of this sweet potato is high, so there must be shortages in other places.

How could the yield be high and taste good?

Chapter 697 Roasted Sweet Potatoes

In Chu Huang's view, this is impossible.

However, he changed his mind.

These farmers may not have eaten anything good at all.

It is human nature to think that this sweet potato is delicious.

After all, they haven't eaten anything good at all.

How do you know what is delicious and what is not?

Thinking of this, Emperor Chu felt relieved.

Because what he needs is not something delicious, but something that can be swallowed and used as food.

As long as these farmers find it delicious, it is enough.

As he thought about it, a gratified smile appeared on his face, and he was about to say something when he heard the farmer say: "Your Majesty, would you like to try this sweet potato?"

Chu Huang was slightly startled, and then, with a smile on his face, he said lightly: "Okay, I have never tasted the taste of this sweet potato."

Liu Cheng next to him heard this, but his face showed hesitation. He stood beside Emperor Chu, thought for a while, and said: "Your Majesty, after all, this sweet potato is still unclean, you still..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Emperor Chu.

"I dug this sweet potato out of the ground myself. Could it be that I would harm myself?"

When Liu Cheng heard this, he didn't dare to say anything.

Because he knew in his heart that the purpose of Emperor Chu's trip to the south of the Yangtze River was the sweet potato.

If you insist on blocking it, there will definitely be problems.

Therefore, he didn't say anything, but sent someone to find a bucket of water.

Then wash the sweet potatoes repeatedly.

Until there was no more mud, he cut it into small pieces with a knife, like fruit, and handed it to Emperor Chu.

Emperor Chu originally wanted to gnaw and eat like those farmers, but seeing this scene, he didn't say anything.

Just pick up a piece and taste it.

In an instant, his face changed.

This sweet potato...is it like that fruit?

Sweet and delicious?

So, can it be eaten raw?

With this surprised expression on his face, Emperor Chu picked up another piece and ate it.

The expression changed again.

Not only tastes sweet and delicious, but also very anti-hunger.

He just ate two pieces and felt a little full.

Liu Cheng next to him saw this scene, but he was a little worried.

Your Majesty won't have any problems, will he?

Fortunately...

As he thought this way, Emperor Chu had already picked up the third piece.

Since His Majesty has already eaten the third piece, it means there is nothing wrong with it.

Liu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

However, there were some changes in Chu Huang's expression.

He looked at Liu Cheng, and ordered: "Go and set up a pot, I want to taste what this sweet potato tastes like after it is boiled into porridge.

In addition, send someone to roast two sweet potatoes, I want to try it too! "

Where is this food to satisfy the hunger?

Simply delicious!

Even for Emperor Chu, it was the first time he had eaten such a sweet food.

The most important thing is that this sweet potato has not undergone any processing!

If it tastes like this after being processed by the chef in the imperial dining room, that's all.

Without any processing, it's just dug out from the ground.

Chu Huang didn't know what to say anymore.

It can only be said that Fang Xiu really found a treasure!

Seeing this scene, Liu Cheng was very surprised.

This sweet potato is so delicious?

Let His Majesty be so full of praise?

Is it a bit too exaggerated?

Although he had doubts in his heart, he still didn't say anything, and immediately sent someone to look for the pot.

Fortunately, the carriage had already prepared a pot.

After a while, the pot was set up.

Then......

The royal chef who followed the team also came.

Looking at Emperor Chu, he stood upright, saluted respectfully, and asked, "Your Majesty, what should I do with this sweet potato?"

Can be selected to go to the south of the Yangtze River with the Emperor Chu.

Naturally, this royal chef has some real skills.

It is also the best chef in the imperial dining room.

After staying in the imperial dining room for such a long time, he must know what dishes the emperor likes to eat.

However, at this moment, he really didn't dare to make a claim.

Because this is the first time he has seen this sweet potato, he doesn't even know what it tastes like, and what to do with it, how could he know?

Therefore, I had to ask the Emperor Chu.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Chu waved his hand, and said casually: "You don't need to do anything, just add some water and rice, and make porridge. Don't add anything else."

"But Your Majesty..."

The imperial chef of the imperial dining room opened his mouth, wanting to say something else.

But just as he opened his mouth, he heard Chu Huang say: "Of course I know that adding some seasonings will make this porridge taste better, but I want to taste the taste of the sweet potato itself, as long as it is simple.

The so-called Daozhisi..."

Anyone can see it.

At this moment, Emperor Chu is in a very good mood.

Because in the past, when Emperor Chu was in a bad mood, he was often reluctant to speak.

But now that he can talk so much about how to cook porridge, he must be in a good mood.

After hearing this, Yu Chu understood.

For an imperial chef like him, cooking porridge couldn't be easier.

This sweet potato looks not too different from a pear.

How to cook porridge with pears, how to cook now...

Just pay attention to the heat.

With that thought in mind, he had already started to light the fire.

On the other hand, the roasted sweet potato has already been made.

Emperor Chu looked at the delicious-looking baked sweet potato, and asked, "Why don't you bring it up?"

The soldier showed hesitation on his face, and he replied: "Returning to Your Majesty, this sweet potato is a little too hot, I am worried..."

"Well, I see."

Chu Huang nodded, and was about to see how the porridge could be cooked.

But the farmer next to him said: "Your Majesty, this roasted sweet potato is delicious when it is hot, but if it cools down, it will not taste good, and it will not have the taste of roasted sweet potato.

This is also our experience, Your Majesty. "
