The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 243 I am your uncle, why don't you ask your father

"Delicious, delicious, so delicious, rare in the world."

"It's really delicious. I've lived most of my life, and I've never eaten such a delicious dish."

"Hey, how can I swallow the food at home in the future?"

After everyone put the dishes into their mouths, they couldn't stop, and they praised while eating.

As for Jin Shui and Xu Fu, due to their identities, they couldn't share the same table, so they had to wait on the side.

However, the saliva of the two of them was almost dripping on the ground, and they could only watch these guests eat such delicious food, and the two of them could only watch, it was really painful.

Although the identities of the two of them are not much different, for this matter, we can only blame this era, but not anyone else.

However, Zhong Wen had already prepared some dishes in the back kitchen, as long as the banquet was over, they would naturally be able to eat them.

The banquet ended quickly, probably in two quarters of an hour.

Originally, Zhong Wen was still thinking that it would take an hour or two. After all, this is a banquet, not a fast food or something.

However, this matter was not what Zhong Wen expected at all, and it was not on the same channel as his original idea.

At this time, everyone was already full of food, and they all sat slumped on the chairs, clutching their stomachs, and staring at the unfinished dishes on the table from time to time.

According to the amount of Zhong Wen's cooking, it must be enough.

In fact, to Zhong Wen, the taste of these dishes can only be described as mediocre.

At that level, I really can't cook delicious dishes. What can I cook?

But in this day and age, it's basically cooking, so don't even think about cooking.

Zhong Wen prepared for this banquet for three days.

Although no soy sauce was found, there was still such sauce. Moreover, Zhong Wen also found some spices from foreign lands. Although the types were rare, these spices were also what Zhong Wen hoped for.

Although there is no monosodium glutamate, as long as you can find such things as seaweed and kelp, there is no fear of no monosodium glutamate. It's just that Zhong Wen's method is poor.

Seaweed and seaweed are rare in West Market, but there are still some.

After Zhong Wencai bought it, he dried it and ground it into a powder, and used it as monosodium glutamate. Although it is definitely not as good as monosodium glutamate, it can at least improve the taste.

What's more, if there is no such thing as MSG, as long as there are eggs and small sea shrimps, they can also enhance the taste of the dishes.

"Nine Heads Daoist, if you don't open a restaurant with your skills, it's a waste."

A doctor in the medical center praised Zhong Wen after eating.

"That's right, Taoist Master, I really have nothing to say about your craftsmanship. What do you tell me to do in the future? No, I will come to your place for dinner in the future."

Cheng Chumo also agrees.

"Everyone is flattering you. It's really a home-cooked dish. It's not on the table. Forgive me."

Zhong Wen quickly responded.

In fact, Zhong Wen spent a lot of energy for this banquet, and at least dozens of pennies of this money were spent.

Happy event, of course, has nothing to do with money.

Therefore, Zhong Wen didn't care about how much money was spent to go there, he added a penny to his family, and no matter how much money he spent, he had to put on this wedding banquet.

However, no matter how much money was spent on this banquet, the gifts collected are probably enough for Zhong Wen to earn a fortune. After all, in this era, gifts are the source of everything, and those who are rude will not enter the door.

Everyone sat in the lobby, sitting and resting, drinking tea.

Chatting with Zhong Wen from time to time, and Jin Shui and Xu Fu had already cleaned up and were feasting in the back kitchen. At this time, the two of them, like that puppy robbing food, almost got into a fight in the back kitchen.

"Jin Shui, this is my braised pork, you are not allowed to grab it, or I will beat you up."

"Xu Koumen, hit me up and see, believe it or not, I called the people from my camp to come over and peel off your skin."

"You, hum."

Where are the two of them eating food? This is obviously grabbing food.

After half an hour, everyone began to leave one by one.

"Junior brother Jiushou, thank you very much. If I have spare time, I will come to disturb you later."

Zheng Feng is bowing to Zhong Wen and saying goodbye.

"Senior brother Zhengfeng, if you have time, come over more. You and I, brothers and sisters, should communicate more. It's just a pity that you are busy with business."

Speaking of, Zhengfeng and Zhongwen can be said to be close, which should be considered the best.

Zhong Wen should keep the positive wind and talk more, but Zheng Feng is the captain of the Jinwu Guard, and Zhong Wen can only give up if he has official duties.

Afterwards, everyone basically took their leave and left, leaving only Cheng Chumo and a young man in the lobby.

"Xiao Daoist, come, come, let me introduce you to a noble person. I haven't had a chance to introduce you just now. Now everyone else has left, just right."

Seeing the crowd dispersed, Cheng Chumo quickly led Zhong Wen to the young man and said.

"Hello, Xiao Daoist, don't listen to what Cheng Chumo said, I am no noble person, Xiao Daoist can call me Gao Ming."

The young man hurriedly stopped Cheng Chumo from continuing, and said directly to Zhong Wen.

"Gao Ming? Li Gaoming? Are you the son of the current Majesty?"

When Zhong Wen heard this name, his first reaction was the prince.

In fact, Zhong Wen didn't know the name at first, and during these times, with Jin Shui, he basically introduced all the people in Chang'an.

As for the person in front of him, he naturally knew that Li Chengqian, the son of Li Shimin, the current lord of the world, had a good character, so he could also be called Li Gaoming.

"The little Taoist knows me?"

Li Gaoming was puzzled, this was the first time he saw this little Taoist priest, so he was naturally not familiar with him.

"Of course I know, His Royal Highness, how can I not know, if it is about seniority, you have to call me uncle."

Zhong Wen looked at the current crown prince in front of him, he didn't have the so-called respect in his heart, and he felt a bit of pity.

Speaking of which, Zhong Wen didn't show much respect when he was with Li Shimin, he was very casual.And this is a pity, it can only be said that the prince did not last until Li Shimin passed away, and he began to want to seize power.

Although he was not killed in the end, but was demoted to a commoner, this life can be said to have experienced ups and downs.

"Uncle? Daoist, are you joking? He is His Royal Highness, and you are not a royal family member. How could he be the uncle of His Royal Highness? Daoist, you should not talk nonsense, just be careful."

After Cheng Chumo listened, he looked at Zhong Wen with a foolish face, and stayed there for a long time before reminding Zhong Wen.

"That's right, the Taoist chief is not a relative of my Li family, so how could he be Gao Ming's uncle? Although the dishes you cook are indeed delicious, don't be complacent and ignorant of your identity just because of such a small achievement. Otherwise, If this family finds out about it, they will have to accuse you of being disrespectful and send you directly to the prison in Dali Temple."

After listening to Zhong Wen's words, Li Gaoming was very unhappy.

For this little Taoist priest, he had a good impression at first, the dishes were so delicious, he thought that he could ask this little Taoist priest to make some delicious dishes, so that he could bring them back to the palace and give them to his parents taste it.

However, when he heard what the little Taoist leader said, he felt that the little Taoist leader might have a lack of nerve in his head, or he was just a fool.

"As I said just now, I am your uncle Li Gaoming. If you don't believe me, you can ask your father."

Zhong Wen heard the meaning of Li Gaoming's words, he looked down on himself, even with a hint of warning and intimidation.

Zhong Wen also sneered back because he was unhappy.

Originally, this is the truth, you, a little kid, pretended to be a wolf with a big tail in front of me, with a long line on the left and a long line on the right, didn’t you see such a big living person like me, taller and younger than you Are you old?

Cheng Chumo called me Little Daoist because he was older, but if you really called me Little Daoist too, then I would have to teach and preach according to the qualifications of an elder.

You don't even look at it, how old are you? If you are less than 14 years old, and you call a 17-year-old Taoist priest, is it because you feel that you are noble, you can ignore others?

Well, I, Zhong Wen, couldn't find the qualifications of being an elder in front of your father. Could it be that I couldn't find the qualifications of being an elder in front of you, a brat?

In fact, Zhong Wen's mentality is purely childlike.

Of course, there is also a certain concept from the previous life, so it came out like this.

"This……"

Standing on the side, Cheng Chumo, had been doing this for a long time, but couldn't figure out what was going on inside.However, he is really smart, anyway, this matter has nothing to do with him, so he will not say more.

But he thought about it for a long time, and he also felt that there was such a possibility. After all, what happened after Zhong Wen injured Uncle Yuchi that day still appeared before his eyes.

If there was no background, would Li Shimin have said that he should give up on this matter?It shouldn't be possible, right?

This is a big event, a big thing.

Cheng Chumo thought in his heart, after going back to this matter, he must tell his father, or ask, who is the identity of this little Taoist leader.

"You, hum, Cheng Chumo, let's go."

Li Gaoming couldn't bear Zhong Wen's eyes, but he really couldn't define this matter.

After all, he knew the butler sent by Zongzheng Temple Li Zhong.Mingli is Li Zhong's housekeeper, but behind the scenes are his staff, Li Gaoming knows it all.

He knew who Li Zhong was, and he knew very well that he was able to send a butler to attend the banquet of the Taoist leader in front of him. Thinking about it, this matter was quite true.

As for the five-point leave, it was exactly as Zhong Wen said, and he was going to ask his father for advice.

The two left without saying goodbye, leaving with question marks on their foreheads.

Zhong Wen didn't pay any attention, let's just leave, anyway, there is no intersection, as for Cheng Chumo, from now on, there is nothing to say, after all, he was repaid the accommodating him, and climbed on the city wall of Chang'an love.

If we really meet in the future, it will be nodding acquaintances at most.

Xungui, naturally has a circle of honorable people, who he is, Zhong Wen knows in his heart.

Taoists should be in the circle of Taoists, and they are always mixed with these nobles. How can this be a Taoist? Is this a noble Taoist?

When the two left Changshoufang, they parted ways.

One returns to Chengfu, and the other returns to Miyagi.

"Father, I just heard a big news."

As soon as Cheng Chumo returned to Cheng's mansion, he began to report to his father, of course, to seek proof.

"what news?"

Cheng Yaojin looked at his unprogressive son, and really wanted to slap him, but when he came back, he was bluffing.

"Didn't I go to the Changshoufang Huilai guest house today to go to the banquet of the Taoist priest? I heard from the Taoist priest that he is Li Gaoming's uncle. At that time, I almost thought that something would happen. Fortunately, I dissuaded him in time. Otherwise, the Taoist leader will be in bad luck."

Cheng Chumo stood far away from his father, afraid that his father would beat him, after all, at this moment, his father stared at those eyes, as if he usually wanted to beat him.

"That little Taoist priest is Li Gaoming's uncle. What can we say? Besides, this matter must not be passed on."

After Cheng Yaojin heard about it, he didn't say much, he just told his son not to spread it to the outside world.

But after Cheng Chu listened silently, he froze on the spot with a silly look, which made Cheng Yaojin stand up and slap him.

"Did you hear me."

"I heard it, I heard it."

After being slapped, Cheng Chumo hurriedly left the room where his father was, but he was terrified in his heart. What the original Taoist priest said was true, he was really Li Gaoming's uncle.But I was sighing in my heart: Why is this seniority so high, I also want to be an uncle!

As for how his father knew about it, he must have asked Li Shimin about it. Otherwise, although Cheng Yaojin was not very helpful about Yu Chigong's matter, if there was no word from Li Shimin, he would definitely have passed someone through. Some means, to put some pressure on Zhong Wen.

But now, Cheng Yaojin knew the truth of it, and naturally, he stopped thinking about these things, even Yu Chigong couldn't take revenge, let alone him.

At this time, Li Gaoming, after returning to Miyagi, got into his East Palace, and did not ask his father Li Shimin for advice.

The East Palace originally belonged to him, and there were quite a few halls. After all, as a crown prince, his status was not comparable to that of some princes.

Of course, this doesn't mean that he can do as the common people do. After all, he is just a prince, not the current emperor.

Chapter 244

After two days, Zhong Wen didn't wait for Li Gaoming's attack, but he waited for his brother Li Tai and Li Qingque.

Zhong Wen didn't understand, so he was really confused about the arrival of such a prince.

"I heard that the dishes cooked by Taoist priest are very delicious, so I came here. I want to ask Taoist priest to cook some delicious dishes. I would like to respect and give my mother a taste."

Li Qingque chatted with Zhong Wen for a long time, and then Li Qingque explained to Zhong Wen his intention.

"His Royal Highness Yue Wang praised me. Although I can cook a few dishes, I'm not good enough to let His Royal Highness come to ask for food, right?"

To be honest, Zhong Wen really didn't believe that Li Qingque would come to his house, and begged himself to cook a few dishes for his mother to taste. There must be a reason for this, otherwise, the Yue King Li Qingque would not have known Own existence.

"The Taoist priest really knows how to joke. I also heard what my elder brother said, so I came here to ask for it. I also ask the Taoist priest to agree."

Li Qingque arrived directly, pointing out that it was his elder brother Li Gaoming who told him.
