Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

In the Li Zheng Palace, although the Su family still occupied his queen, Li Shimin was in a good mood today and didn't care.

"Why haven't you passed on the food yet..."

Empress Changsun and Mrs. Su had nothing to do. They were working on their makeup skills in the Lizheng Hall every day. Now their makeup skills have reached their peak, and it is impossible to tell that they are over forty.

Li Shimin turned to look at his dear queen: "Oh, Baolilou came to the palace to cook today, and they used the ingredients Xiaobao sent back from the ocean... Huh?"

Empress Changsun's makeup at this time is called fresh and elegant. She seems to be wearing makeup, but she seems to be without makeup, but she looks good and looks very young and energetic.

Just as Li Shimin was about to speak, he saw Mrs. Su walking out of the inner court of the Zhengzheng Palace: "My wife is here to see your Majesty."

Li Shimin wanted to scratch his head, why is Xiaobao still there? Otherwise, he could make stuffed rice with his own Queen Jiangjiang.

Fortunately, the meal delivery from Shangshi Bureau arrived. Wu Niu and several cooks came with the waiters to pass the meal. The first dish was three small portions of cold skin. It looked red and smelled a bit sour, which was quite appetizing.

Li Shimin picked up the chopsticks, picked up the small bowl and finished the cold skin in two mouthfuls. The oily spicy peppers with the aroma of sesame and chili went straight to Tianling Gai. The flexible and chewy cold skin was mixed with refreshing cucumber shreds, tribute vegetable strips and full of fat. The fragrant peanuts are chewable in the mouth, and the sour taste of rice vinegar is even more appetizing on a hot summer day.

"Hiss~, hiss~ This, why is my mouth so spicy?"

Wu Niu took out a chili pepper from his pocket: "Your Majesty, this is a spice that the young master found outside the ocean. Its taste is full of aroma and spiciness. Its spiciness is not like garlic and onions. , it’s more pure!”

Queen Changsun took two bites. For Queen Changsun, she didn't like such a strong spicy taste, but it tasted really delicious. Although she didn't like it very much, she still finished it.

Su Shi was completely different. She fell in love with this pepper at first sight. She was so happy after eating it: "Can you add more?"

Wu Niu simply messed up the order of serving. The second dish was boiled beef. A whole basin of hot red soup was placed on the table. Empress Changsun could not help but be attracted by its overbearing aroma. attract.

Li Shimin fished out a piece of beef from it. The beef that had been marinated by top chefs like Wu Niu was so smooth that even a toothless old man could easily eat it.

The beef melted in Li Shimin's mouth, with the strong aroma of beef and the mellow aroma of chili. The hot taste kept stirring in Li Shimin's mouth, making him unable to stop eating one bite after another.

Just when Li Shimin looked at Wu Niu, Wu Niu took out a bowl of rice and handed it to Li Shimin. At that moment, Wu Niu became Li Shimin's light.

A spoonful of red soup was poured on top of the rice. Two pieces of beef were turned over and wrapped in the rice and brought into Li Shimin's mouth. The aroma of beef, the spiciness and fragrance of chili exploded in his mouth, no! There are actually experts!

Wu Niu handed another two bowls of rice to Empress Changsun and Mrs. Su: "This year, the Baoli Commercial Bank Grain Branch internally selected the best quality rice. The rice from the Black Earth of Northland has reached the peak in terms of taste, aroma, oil and dryness. "

Li Shimin looked regretful: "You didn't tell me earlier, so I poured the red soup on it and couldn't taste the rice fragrance itself."

Empress Changsun took a bite of the rice. It was indeed different from all the polished rice she had eaten before. The rice had a mellow aroma, not soft and chewy texture, and the more she chewed, the more fragrant it became.

"Is there any dish that isn't spicy? I don't like spicy food."

A large bowl of black beef stewed with potatoes is immediately served on the table. The aroma of high-quality beef ribs also carries an unprecedented smell of grain.

In the middle of the exquisite porcelain is an old cow carved from a radish with its front hooves raised.

Queen Changsun picked up a piece of yellow potato and said, "What kind of dish is this? I have never seen it before, but it is a new ingredient brought back by Xiaobao?"

Wu Niu nodded: "Potatoes, potatoes, and potatoes all belong to it. The texture of the noodles combined with the stewed beef brings a different texture. Its unique grain aroma and beef are also the best partners."

Empress Changsun fell in love with the beef and potato stew after just one bite, while Su preferred the spicy dish that was served next.

"Chicken gizzards stir-fried with pickled peppers, extremely spicy and refreshing. Added with the unique kimchi of Jiannan Road, it is sour, spicy, and a perfect addition to rice!"

I didn't eat several dishes. The rice was made from kaka. Queen Changsun held a bowl and ate pine nuts and corn: "What is this? I have never seen it before. Is it also a crop from far away from the ocean?"

Wu Niu took out a picture of what the corn looked like when it was just harvested and showed it to Queen Changsun: "This is what it looks like right after the harvest. It is dried and peeled before being shipped back. It is said that the fresh flavor is sweeter, and the dried one is more fragrant and sweet." After adding water and steaming it before cooking it still lost some flavor.”

As a cook, Wu Niu is a little annoyed that he cannot show the freshest side of the ingredients, but there is nothing he can do about it. The transportation problem still needs to be solved.

Queen Changsun saw what Wu Niu was thinking: "If it is planted in Datang in the future, there will be fresh ones. I will go to Baolilou to try it."

Wu Niu nodded: "The young master said that these corn kernels can be made into cans. Transportation should not be a problem by then. There are also various textures, including soft and waxy, crispy and sweet."

Li Shimin held a piece of honeycomb corn and moved it to the side of the black cow: "Hey, I want some spicy oil for dipping..."

Wu Niu took a step away: "Honeycomb corn dipped in oil and spicy food? Humans can't, at least they shouldn't."

After the meal, Li Shimin rewarded all the untouched dishes. Empress Changsun suggested that she go to the imperial garden to eat. Su Shi directly took Empress Changsun's arm. Li Shimin clasped his hands behind his back and frowned. Dead flies.

Li Shimin chatted with Empress Changsun while walking: "There is news from Gao Ming that Wan'er is pregnant. You said it is true. Either there is no movement at all, or they are all pregnant at once. I really don't know what to say to me. Just say it.”

Empress Changsun grabbed Li Shimin's sleeve: "Do you mean what your majesty said? Wan'er's happiness is a great blessing!"

Mrs. Su was a little worried: "I'm sorry for Princess Chengyang. She follows Quan'er outside every day. I don't know what's going on lately."

When talking about Su Quan, Li Shimin was also embarrassed: "There is nothing we can do. Now the entire focus is on places outside the original territory. To strengthen control over there, building roads and railways is indispensable. We can't fight. When Quan'er comes back, I, my father-in-law, will make him a duke."

Li Shimin missed Yuchi Baoqi again: "I don't know when Xiaobao will come back. Why are he staying there after finding the immortal seed? It would be great to come back as soon as possible so that Changle can give birth and raise in Chang'an. I can hold him as soon as possible. Grandson!"
