Li Shimin

Page 264

Li Xuan stood aside and introduced Cui Mi.

According to his prediction, these little bastards should stay with Li Shimin in Lijiazhuang for a while.

No matter what, Cui Mi will have a chance to meet these little bastards.

"Don't look at these little bastards who are very well-behaved in front of His Majesty, His Highness the Queen and others, but if they are placed in the paddy field, their wild nature will come out..."

Listening to Li Xuan's introduction, Cui Mi couldn't help showing a smile.

Cui Mi has never experienced this husband caring so much for her.

"Thank you king!"

"However, these are the current princes, princesses, and kings. If outsiders listen to it, especially those censors..."

"It's okay!"

Li Xuan chuckled lightly, with an expression of indifference.

"Princess, don't worry. This king is the third uncle of these little bastards. Let alone a mere title, no one dares to say anything even if they are caught and smoked."

"Also, princess, don't forget that this king is the king of Jin. Except for the fact that he is not as powerful as your majesty, in other respects, this king is no different from your majesty. Even, this king can enjoy some things that your majesty can't enjoy. "

"This king is now living in the Li Family Manor. He never participates in political affairs. He only wants to be a happy and idle prince. As long as he does not raise troops to rebel, His Majesty will not treat this king too harshly."

"Therefore, if there are those censors who don't like this king and dare to bully me, I can directly lead the guards in the house, and enter Chang'an within a stick of incense, smashing the gates of those censors ..."

Cui Mi: "..."

"Hey, of course, Wangfei, don't worry, until now, this king has never led his personal guards to smash the gate of a family of censors!"

As he said that, Li Xuan had some regrets in his eyes.

Chapter 330 Bamboo Paper

"King~"

Cui Mi couldn't help but glared at Li Xuan.

However, as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he couldn't help being surprised, his face was flushed red, and his heart was full of remorse.

Embarrassed!

She doesn't know what's wrong with her, since the day of welcoming the bride, she has spent less than four days with the king with all her efforts, so how could she utter such goosebump-provoking words?

Even Li Xuan couldn't help but glance at Cui Mi.

My princess has great potential!

After a long while, Cui Mi said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is so respected, and you will definitely be criticized if you lead your bodyguards to smash the Yushi Yanguan!"

Li Xuan snorted softly, "Why is this king afraid?"

Afterwards, without waiting for Cui Mi to continue, Li Xuan said: "Okay, you can tell the butler what the princess wants to eat."

"In Lijiazhuang, there are more than 1000 fat chickens in captivity, which can lay 800 eggs a day; more than 400 fat ducks, which can lay more than 500 eggs a day; thousands of acres of paddy fields, the fields are full of fat fish, countless; There are more than [-] fat pigs, fat and thin, old and young, all these princesses can eat!"

"So much?"

Hearing this, Cui Mi's mouth couldn't help but slowly opened.

Chickens, ducks, hogfish, these domestic animals are also raised in captivity in the Qinghe Cui family.

However, such a large family also raises hundreds of them in captivity, and they only need to provide daily food for the family.

And such a small Li Family Manor raised so many at once, according to Cui Mi's estimation, they could all supply Chang'an City.

Therefore, he subconsciously said: "Your Majesty keeps so many poultry and livestock in captivity, but you want to sell them to the rich and powerful in the city?"

Li Xuan didn't know that his concubine mistakenly thought that he kept so many poultry and livestock in captivity to sell them to the rich and powerful in the city to make money, or she said indifferently: "This king just wants to eat meat, and Lijiazhuang has a lot of land. If there are more farm households, more captivity will be raised."

"These poultry and livestock princesses can eat whatever they want. On weekdays, the servants and farmers in the house can also buy some chickens, ducks, fish and pigs for food at extremely low prices.

As for selling these poultry and livestock to the dignitaries in the city, the village will sell some every day, but not too much.The amount of these chickens, ducks and hogfish can only be eaten in the village at present! "

"Your Majesty is saying that these chickens, ducks, fish and pigs can also be eaten by all the farmers and servants in the village?"

Cui Mi looked surprised.

As far as she knew, outside, not to mention the servants and servants of some wealthy families, even some families with better family backgrounds sometimes only had a meal of meat every half a month.

"exactly"

Li Xuan nodded lightly, "On weekdays, these chickens, ducks, hogs, and fish are all taken care of by the farmers and their servants. When they are ready to eat, they will naturally give some to the farmers. However, the farmers eat chickens, ducks, hogs and fish. Sometimes, you also need to spend some money to buy it.

Moreover, the money is more than ten or dozens of coins, which is as much as half cheaper than those outside the village who come to buy meat in the village! "

"Your Majesty is merciful, it is really a blessing for the farmer and the servants!"

Cui Mi nodded thoughtfully and praised.

Cui Mi also vaguely guessed why Li Xuan would explain it like this.

As the concubine of Jin, she will also intervene in some affairs of Jin's residence.

Apparently, the king told her about this in such detail because he was worried that she would increase the price of those chickens, ducks, and hogfish, or prohibit farmers from buying food.

It's just that the king underestimated her by doing this!

"Your Majesty, what will you have for dinner?"

At this time, Li Chang came up and asked Li Xuan.

In other courtyards, such as the small thatched hut before, Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others cook the meals.

In the other courtyard, there are dozens of chefs, and there are three chefs who cook for Li Xuan.

Moreover, the way of cooking was also taught by Li Xuan himself.

"What would the princess want to eat?"

Li Xuan turned to look at Cui Mi.

"Your Majesty can decide!" Cui Mi said hastily.

Hearing this, Li Xuan was startled, and then he reacted.

It was Cui Mi's first time here, so he probably didn't know what to order, so he told us what he usually eats.

"Scrambled eggs with chopped green onion, stewed chicken with mushrooms, braised carp in soy sauce, spicy chicken feet, roast duck, big pork knuckle, eight-treasure porridge, a few big steamed buns, and a bowl of rice!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Chang glanced at Li Xuan strangely, paused for a while, and then hurriedly retreated.

Seeing this, Li Xuan looked puzzled.

However, he still explained to Cui Mi who was on the side: "These meals are what the king usually eats, and the king doesn't know what the princess likes to eat, so I ordered it first. In the future, if the princess wants to eat something, You can directly order the servants to do it."

"In the other courtyard, eating is the most important thing, the princess doesn't need to have any scruples!"

"Thank you king!"

Cui Mi thanked Li Xuan again.

Half an hour later, Li Chang came up with a few maids, carrying the meals Li Xuan had ordered.

Seeing a table full of food, Cui Mi couldn't help being surprised again.

"My lord, how can you finish eating so many meals?"

"Princess, don't worry, if you can't finish eating, leave it to the king!"

Li Xuan comforted, and began to take the lead.

There is no need to worry about not being able to finish this kind of rice with less steamed buns and more meals.

It was the first time for Cui Mi to eat this kind of food, and after taking the first bite, his eyes could not help but brighten, and the fast food in his hand never stopped.

Today's appetite is twice as much as in the past!

After the meal, Li Xuan completely returned to his usual lazy time.

After finishing eating, Cui Mi was allowed to hold a clairvoyance and look around on the third-floor rooftop.

As for him, he was going to the forge.

After walking for so long, Le Tai and the others should have researched something, right?

Li Xuan faintly looked forward to it.

"See Your Majesty!"

In the paper making workshop, seeing Li Xuan's figure, Le Tai, Li Dashi and others looked happy, and hurriedly bowed their hands to Li Xuan.

"Get up quickly!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly, then looked at the three large pots that were cooking.

"What's the progress?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me!"

Le Tai looked ashamed, "In the past few days, the villain and others have produced a few pieces of pure white bamboo paper, but it is still very difficult to achieve the speed required by the king!"

"Bamboo paper?"

Li Xuan was overjoyed and quickly asked, "Where is the bamboo paper?"

"Look, Your Majesty!"

On the side, the band stage quickly pointed to a glass cabinet beside it.

"These papers are indeed much whiter than the yellow papers in the past!"

Li Xuan looked over, and sure enough, he saw a stack of thick white papers neatly stacked in the glass cabinet. If you don't look carefully, you really can't see it!

When I touched it with my hand, it was smooth and delicate, much better than yellow paper, and Li Xuan's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction.

"How fast are these bamboo papers made?"

"Back to your Majesty, I have been able to forge so much bamboo paper in six days!"

Letai quickly replied, "Compared with Huangzhi, the speed is about the same!"

"So, let's start making bamboo paper in the future!"

Li Xuan nodded, and ordered, "In addition, you should pay more attention, find some places suitable for bamboo growth, and plant more bamboo!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Le Tai nodded quickly.

"In such a short period of time, you have already made bamboo paper. It is also a great achievement. I will reward you with fifty sticks!" Li Xuan said.

"Thank you king!"

Le Tai, Li Dashi and others immediately beamed with joy.

"In this period of time, if you do more research on how to speed up the production of bamboo paper, this king will take half of the bamboo paper first!"

After looking at it for a while, Li Xuan didn't find anything, so Li Xuan prepared to go back.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Several people from the music stage responded again.

Immediately, Li Xuan walked back with a stack of bamboo paper in his arms.

……

Chapter 331 This is my princess!

"My lord, what are these papers?"

In the other courtyard, Cui Mi saw the white bamboo paper in Li Xuan's arms, with a look of surprise.

"This is bamboo paper."

Li Xuan explained.

"Bamboo paper?"
