Princess Yongmu copied Li Yi and picked up a bug. She placed it in front of her nose and smelled it. It smelled like sauce.
"Sister Wen Tian, you can't eat it. It's a bug." Xiao Lan was anxious.
"Li Lang won't harm people. If bean worms can be eaten, the people who plant beans will have time to raise them. Everyone will eat better."
Princess Yongmu looked gentle, but her words were for the sake of the people.
She opened her mouth slightly and took a small bite of the bug. She quickly closed her eyes and moved her mouth. She opened her eyes again and took another bite.
"Is it delicious?" Li Yi asked. He then introduced, "It's even better when fried. The oil is not wasted. It's still edible."
Princess Yongmu nodded as she ate. Her eyes were filled with surprise.
She realized that the baked bean worms could be eaten. They tasted pretty good.
"It looks scary." Xiao Lan saw that Princess Yongmu had eaten. She had to eat first.
As she spoke, she closed her eyes and took a bite. She chewed and directly stuffed the rest into her mouth.
After swallowing, she said with a smile, "Actually, I'm not afraid at all. Really."
"No one said that you're afraid." Li Yi had a look of approval.
Xiao Lan pouted again and glared at Li Yi.
"Xiao Lan, don't be rude to Li Lang. Li Lang cares about the people of the Tang dynasty. He actually knows how to raise bean worms."
Princess Yongmu said to Xiao Lan. When she looked at Li Yi, her eyes were filled with a different kind of expression.
As expected, she didn't come in vain. She got a good idea.
She smiled at Li Yi again. "The people of the world all think that bean worms are harmful, but they've never thought of raising them for meat. There are also maggots that can be raised to feed chickens. When the grasshoppers aren't everywhere, even chickens and ducks can be eaten. "
"In the southwest, we catch bugs to eat. Many of them are poisonous. Wen Tian, where are you staying tonight? "Li Yi suddenly changed the topic.
"Zhang Family's village." Princess Yongmu turned her head and looked in the direction of the village.
"I have an empty courtyard in Zhuangzi. It used to be Third Brother and Sister-in-law's residence. Now that it's empty, why don't you stay in my Zhuangzi?"
Li Yi very naturally extended the invitation.
"Li Yi, what are you doing?" Xiao Lan glared at him and stood up with her hands on her waist.
"Many people from the Li Family Zhuangzi went there, but I didn't do anything. Even the Minister came, but the Minister used the same courtyard.
There's another courtyard for Old Man Mu and Madam Mu. They always send me cows, and I don't let anyone else live in their courtyard.
I also have palace maids and eunuchs. They are not ordinary people. They are all supervisors in the palace. "
Li Yi continued to introduce his Zhuangzi. Eunuchs had the word 'eunuch' in them. The eunuchs he was referring to were officials, and at the same time, eunuchs.
Li Yi's words made Xiao Lan speechless. She said anxiously, "But, but, if we live there, others will think …"
"Listen to Sister Wen Tian, right?" Li Yi asked Princess Yongmu.
Princess Yongmu lowered her head and whispered, "Listen to Li Lang's arrangement. The Li Family Zhuangzi has always been open and aboveboard."
"I have chili noodles. Let's try it. I won't give it to others. It's still too little. Next year, more people will be able to buy it."
Li Yi seemed to be relieved. He stood up and roasted skewers. They could be dipped in chili noodles, but they couldn't be sprinkled on the skewers.
"Princess, let's live in the Li Family Zhuangzi, okay?" Xiao Lan whispered.
"The Li Family Zhuangzi is safer. Living in Imperial Father and Imperial Mother's courtyard, there are also palace maids and eunuchs there. It's more convenient."
Princess Yongmu was thinking about this. She knew who the third brother and sister-in-law Li Yi was talking about were.
When she heard that others weren't allowed to live there, she was relieved. How could living in the Zhang Family's village compare to the Li Family Zhuangzi?
After she finished speaking, she looked up at Li Yi who was busy roasting skewers. She didn't eat anymore. Wait a minute.
She hesitated for a moment before asking, "Li Lang bought land in Huazhou and Tongzhou to settle the nine families of Tiele. Will they be able to live in a new house in winter?"
"They will work very hard to build their own house. If they can't finish it before winter, they will freeze."
After Li Yi finished speaking, he came back with a bunch of hoof tendons.
Hoof tendons were originally cooked and would soften after roasting. They could be eaten directly with dried ingredients.
He took a skewer for himself and put it in his mouth. He chewed and said in a muffled voice, "This year, their job is to build a house."
"After the house is built, they still have to work in winter, right?"
When Princess Yongmu spoke, she imagined a group of people working hard.
"This year's winter is mainly for learning how to speak the Tang dynasty language. Some of them can speak it, but their accent is not good."
Li Yi poured iced fruit juice for the two of them. He drank the yellow wine himself.
Princess Yongmu paused for a moment. "That's right. Wen Tian actually forgot about the language barrier."
"Sometimes I also forget. It's all thanks to the people in Zhuangzi who reminded me. In less than ten days, the capital's water network will be fully connected. The Li Family Zhuangzi will release a large number of boats.
At that time, it will be convenient to travel to and from different places. If Wen Tian likes, she can directly go to the Li Family Zhuangzi by boat.
But when winter comes, she will change to a different kind of transportation. The speed on the ice is faster than on land, and it will save more energy.
She will change to a large ice plow, which can transport goods from one place to another. "
Li Yi changed the topic and talked about the use of the water network.
When there was water, boats were used. After the water froze, it would snow on land, and it would be difficult to travel. The ice plow could be used.
There was also snow on the ice, so dogs could pull the sleigh.
When he was in the northeast, he also used dogs to pull carriages. There were also deer, elk, and horses.
It was different from the horses in amusement parks. As long as the horses there could earn money, they could work themselves to death.
Once the horses in the Tang dynasty were tired, the people would immediately let the horses rest if they were not fighting for their lives.
Princess Yongmu blinked her big eyes and listened. In her mind, the scene of people and goods on the water network of the capital's water network appeared.
She felt that it was especially beautiful. The water network's function was reflected.
Just as she was about to speak, one of the village masters ran over. "Dongzhu, the assistant minister of the Yellow Gate, Yuan Qianyao, who was appointed a few days ago, is here. He's walking over."
Princess Yongmu's expression changed. She looked at Xiao Lan helplessly. Xiao Lan also became nervous.
"I won't see him. Stop him. If he's willing to eat skewers, arrange for him to go somewhere I can't see."
Li Yi suddenly spoke up and refused.
Xiao Lan revealed a shocked expression. Prime Minister, Li Yi said he won't see him, but he came in person.
"If he wants to barge in, drive him out." Li Yi added.
"Yes." The village master nodded and left. Afraid that it would be too late, the Winged Knights followed.
"Li Lang, you …" Princess Yongmu revealed a worried expression.
"The prime minister can't disturb me eating with a beauty." Li Yi said righteously.
Xiao Lan nodded vigorously. "Yes, Li Dongzhu, I won't see him."
Princess Yongmu was stunned. Could this be the reason?
"He's too scheming. Her Majesty arranged for him to be the prime minister and wanted to make good use of him.
But when he comes to important matters, he doesn't say anything. What's the use?
I'll think of a way to remove him from the prime minister position. Is Her Majesty more important or is he more important? "
Li Yi gave another reason.
"Her Majesty is more important. Is he really not good?" Princess Yongmu was suddenly energized. This prime minister was not good?
