"Oh! It's delicious! Imperial Father, Imperial Mother, have a taste! "
Li Zexuan and Li Er were discussing Changle's condition, but the person in question went to taste the yellow delicacies. It seemed that she didn't care about her condition at all. It couldn't be said that she didn't care. Perhaps the little girl knew that her illness couldn't be cured by medicinal stones, so she didn't want to show that she cared very much, lest her father and mother worry.
Zhangsun picked up a locust and looked left and right, but couldn't see what it was (because it was wrapped in eggs and flour). She tentatively put it into her mouth, and with a light bite, her mouth was suddenly filled with a crisp fragrance.
"Well, this thing is really delicious, but I can't tell what it's made of!"
Empress Zhangsun praised sincerely. She felt that this thing was more delicious than Ken's chicken.
Li Zexuan said embarrassedly, "Your Majesty, this dish is called Soaring Success. As for what it's made of, forgive me for not being able to say!"
In fact, Empress Zhangsun also had Qi disease, so eating more locusts was also very good for her body. But if Li Zexuan really said the ingredients of this dish, everyone present probably couldn't eat anymore!
"Oh! Soaring Success? That's a good name! It's just that you're being so secretive. Could it be that you're afraid that this consort will steal your secret recipe? "
Empress Zhangsun smiled and said.
Li Zexuan repeatedly said that he didn't dare, but this guy didn't say what the ingredients were.
Li Er's curiosity was greatly aroused. He picked up a piece of "Soaring Success" into his bowl, and then quietly poked the egg on the surface with chopsticks. A "cute" locust head suddenly "popped" out, and Li Er's face suddenly became very interesting!
"Li Zexuan, come with me!"
Li Er quickly "buried" the locust under the rice, and then said to Li Zexuan opposite him.
Empress Zhangsun and Changle looked at each other. Li Zexuan's heart thumped, and he felt that something was wrong. He braced himself and stood up, saying, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
…
"Bastard! How dare you feed locusts to the Empress and Changle? I see that you are getting bolder and bolder ~! "
Walking to a nearby pillar, Li Er shouted in a low voice with a gloomy face.
Li Zexuan did not expect Li Er to find out so quickly that Soaring Success was made from locusts. However, he was not unprepared. "His Majesty is angry because he thinks locusts cannot be eaten by humans. In fact, not only could locusts be used as food, they could also be used to detoxify, stop coughing, and stop asthma. They had extremely high medicinal value! Your Majesty, if you don't believe me, you can ask the doctors of the Imperial Physician Bureau! "
Li Er was stunned when he heard that. This was the first time he had heard that locusts had so many effects!
"Your Majesty, as long as you don't think that it's a locust when you eat it, the taste is still very good! Moreover, who knew how many locusts there would be next year? When the time comes, if this method of eating locusts becomes popular, coupled with the many chickens raised by the people, there will be no need to worry about the locusts not being wiped out. "
Li Zexuan added.
Li Er was greatly moved, but he still hesitated and said, "But there is a saying among the people that there is a locust god. What if you incur the wrath of the gods …"
Li Zexuan sneered and said, "Your Majesty, not to mention that there are no gods in this world, even if there were, they would not be locusts! They nibble away at crops and harm the common people. They can only be considered evil spirits and are not fit to be gods! "
Li Er nodded and then unhappily said, "No matter what, you cannot use the Empress and Changle as your experiment!"
Li Zexuan smiled and said, "Your Majesty is wise. This subject cannot bear the responsibility of this crime. In fact, before this, there were already people who tried this dish. This subject saw that the response was not bad. In addition, these locusts were indeed beneficial to the Empress and Princess Changle's illness. Therefore, this subject brought it out!"
"Oh? Then who else? "
Li Er asked.
Li Zexuan smiled and told Li Er about Cheng Chumo eating locusts yesterday. Li Er laughed and said, "En, that's more like it! Today, We will give you some face and go taste that so-called soaring to the heavens! "
Looking at Old Li's back, Li Zexuan silently cursed, Tsk! Still giving me face? If it weren't for me, Old Li, you would have to eat locusts raw next year!
The history books recorded, "In the second year of Zhenguan, there were locusts in the capital. Xinmao entered the garden and saw locusts. He plucked several of them and said, "The people live in the valley. If you eat them, you would rather eat my lungs and intestines." He raised his hand and was about to swallow them when he admonished, "Evil things may become diseases." He said, "We are suffering for the people. Why should we avoid diseases?" Thus, he swallowed them. In this year, locusts are not a disaster. "
Compared to eating locusts raw, deep-fried locusts were obviously more delicious!
"Heh! Imperial Father, Imperial Mother, Changle? You're all here? "
When Li Zexuan and Li Er were talking, the gongs and drums of the academy had already sounded. Li Tai, who was always very enthusiastic about eating, was naturally the first to arrive at the cafeteria. After seeing the table of people inside, the little fatty was stunned, as if he had suddenly found his backbone. He hurriedly complained to Li Er and Empress Zhangsun,
"Imperial Father, Imperial Mother! Xiaoxuan … Yamachō deliberately abuses people. He punishes students every day and doesn't let us eat meat. He only lets us eat vegetables. You see, in just a few days, I've lost weight! "
Li Zexuan widened his eyes and secretly thought that this little fatty was arrogant enough! He actually complained in front of him. It seemed that he would have to make things difficult for this fellow in the future.
Li Er frowned. It was true that he doted on Li Tai, but Li Tai's behavior of complaining still made him a little unhappy. In his opinion, he was Li Shimin's son. If he was bullied outside, he should be bullied back. What was the difference between crying and complaining to him like this and a girl ~?
"Qingque, Li Zhanshi is also doing it for your own good. Although it's a little bitter, it's only for a month. Just bear with it and it'll be over!"
Li Tai was instantly dumbfounded. What was wrong with this scene? Why was Imperial Mother, who used to be "obedient" to him, speaking up for an outsider today? Also, why was his tried and tested method of complaining and acting pitiful not working today ~?
What this fellow didn't know was that he had the method of complaining and acting pitiful, and Li Zexuan had the knack of "public relations" in advance. Now, Li Er and Empress Zhangsun had already been "public relations" by him ~!
"Hehe ~! Brother Qingque is so embarrassing. You actually came to Imperial Father and Imperial Mother to complain about Brother Xiaoxuan. Shame on you ~! "
Changle, who was eating happily at the side, raised her head at this moment and made a funny face at Li Tai and giggled.
Actually, her words more or less had the intention of helping Li Zexuan out of the predicament.
Just as Li Tai was about to quibble, he noticed the golden and dazzling delicacies on the plate. He quickly ran over and sat beside Changle, saying, "Meteoric rise, this must be meteoric rise! Changle, you … you leave some for me, let me try it ~! "
