My harem can't be this messy

Page 265

Li Zhi thought about it, and got into the carriage to Jinwang Mansion.

After returning to Prince Jin's Mansion, Li Zhi was lying on his soft bed, and Wang Yan was lying there next to him, leaning on one side of her cheek, looking at Li Zhi.

"Your Highness, what are you thinking, why did you suddenly laugh?"

"It's nothing, Yan'er, tell me, will the two of you be happy looking at the endless desert by the Peacock River?"

"I'll be thirsty!"

"Isn't there the Kongque River next to it?"

"Yan'er doesn't like deserts."

"Have you ever seen a desert?"

Wang Yan shook her head. This kind of lady, who has never been to such a far place, is only two points and one line between Taiyuan and Chang'an. These are all the areas where the crown princess is active at this time.

"If you haven't seen it, you can say you don't like it. When I will take you to see the desert, you will know whether you like it or not."

"What's wrong with Your Highness today? You always talk about the desert."

Li Zhi leaned on Wang Yan's ear and said something.

Wang Yan looked at Li Zhi and covered her mouth.

"Your Highness, you cheated on the son-in-law."

"What do you mean cheating him? The guardian is always higher than his current official position. Going to Anxi will give him a promotion and a noble rank. Moreover, going to Anxi is far away from the emperor. He and my imperial sister don't know how happy they are."

"Anxi is nothing but sand, so what's the matter?"

"Isn't there still an oasis? Besides, there are many beauties in the Western Regions."

Li Zhi said with certainty, the Western Regions, beauties, it seems that later generations have always said so, the beauties in the Western Regions are unique, especially in places like Loulan, where beauties are born!

Thinking about it, Li Zhi couldn't bear it anymore, so he called Caiyu and asked her to pass on the Persian orchid.

Thinking of the beauties in the Western Regions, Li Zhi was currently kneading the princess with his hands. When the Persian orchid came, Li Zhi lay barefoot on the bed and picked her up She kissed her legs hard on those thighs.

There is a saying in later generations, why so many emperors want to conquer the Western Regions, look at the territory of the Chinese dynasties, it is easy to find that the Western Regions are always the priority of all dynasties and generations to conquer, why, there are so many beautiful women in the Western Regions.

At this moment, Li Zhi threw the Persian orchid hard on the bed, and the Persian orchid fell in pain, and let out an ah.

Tonight's crown prince showed his supernatural power, probably because the beauties in the Western Regions were thinking too much, and he was a little fascinated by thinking about it.

Chapter 513

Think about the flying sky in Mogao Grottoes, think about the graceful waist twisting by the Lop Nur, think about all kinds of legends about Loulan.

Li Zhi was in surprisingly good condition today, Caiyu cried and called two maids, and a few people barely satisfied the prince.

Holding the Persian orchid in his arms at this time, Li Zhi was still carefully examining her body, and when he became the emperor himself, Anxi was a springboard, and Li Zhi wanted to make the countries around Anxi submit to the feet of the Tang Dynasty.

If I can live forever at the age of 15, the whole world will be under my feet.Li Zhi wanted to eat that mouthful of oily and spicy peppers!America can’t hold it, how can it be eaten?

Thinking about it, Li Zhi squeezed the Persian Orchid hard, and the Persian Orchid looked at the prince in pain, but his eyes were still obsessed.

On the second day at the Prince Jin's Mansion, Li Zhi looked at a down jacket that had already been made, and carefully spread the down jacket with his hands, stroking every place.

This body is for the queen mother, but I won't give it away at this time, and I will give it to the emperor's father when it is ready.

At this time, after folding the down jacket, Li Zhi watched Yun Xi busy at the side, watching Yun Xi doing needlework was also a kind of enjoyment for Li Zhi.

Li Zhi was almost obsessed with watching those pair of jade hands shuttle back and forth with the needle and thread.

"Yun Xi, you look really good when you make clothes."

Yun Xi bit off a piece of thread with his teeth, and looked at His Highness the Crown Prince in puzzlement, why did he look so good when he made clothes?Is there any difference between usual and when making clothes?

Li Zhi looked at her with puzzled eyes and didn't say anything. People in this era don't know that the working people are the most beautiful!

Li Zhi packed up the down jacket for his mother, and walked out of Yunxi's courtyard. Just as he walked out, he saw Xinruo leading a little eunuch and walked over here.

"Is the father looking for this palace?"

"Return to your highness, your majesty and empress are waiting for your highness at the Lizheng Hall!"

At this time, why did the emperor and the empress call him to the Lizheng Hall?

Li Zhi couldn't guess it, but he had to hurry to the palace. Li Zhi told Xinruo to prepare his horses and horses, so he rushed to the palace.

When he arrived at the Lizheng Palace, Li Zhi saw his father, queen mother, and his three imperial sisters inside from a distance. Among them, his father and his son were playing chess, and the other three were watching beside them, looking happy.

When Li Zhi walked in, Si Zi looked at his father helplessly, and put away the chess pieces, ready to reposition them.

"Okay, son, let's stop, your brother emperor is here."

"Zhi'er has met the emperor father and the empress mother."

"Zhi'er, come here quickly, and sit on Father's side."

Li Zhi hurried over, looking at his father and queen mother, they called him here, what the hell is going on!

"Father, Queen Mother, let Zhi'er come to the Lizheng Hall today, do you have something to tell Zhi'er?"

"It's nothing important. In ten days or so, it will be New Year's Eve. Father and mother discussed with your mother, and want to add a few dishes to this year's New Year's Eve banquet."

"Father means that this year's New Year's Eve banquet will include the roast duck, garlic duck blood and duck blood vermicelli soup that the emperor presented a few days ago?"

"Zhi'er, that's exactly what your father meant."

"The emperor will have someone prepare it when he goes back today, and then he will buy back all the live ducks in Chang'an City."

"Zhi'er, you don't have to worry about the duck, your father has already ordered someone to take care of it."

"Then the emperor will transfer the cook of Prince Jin's Mansion to the Shangshi Bureau in the palace to help."

"By the way, Zhi'er, are there any new dishes recently? The queen mother has been a bit greedy recently."

As Empress Changsun said, Li Zhi realized that not only his mother was looking at him at this time, but also his father and three younger sisters were also looking at him eagerly!

They are all foodies!Li Zhi shouted depressed in his heart.

But this is not surprising, although the Tang royal family is very rich, although the Tang royal family can get as long as they can get anything in this era, the problem is that the dishes in this era are actually very monotonous, and the monotony makes people feel scared.

You must know that in the history of China, cooking was not created until the Song Dynasty, and shabu-shabu was introduced from the northern nomads, and it was not the nomads like the Huns and Turks, but Mongolia. , It was not until the Yuan Dynasty that it began to gradually rise.

At this time, the staple food of the Tang Dynasty was noodles in the north and rice in the south, but there were very few dishes, and they were mainly boiled.

Even if the royal family can be richer, in fact, the richness is limited, and there are only so many back and forth.And there are so many royal taboos to die for.

For example, pork can’t be served on rice noodles, and dog meat can’t be served. Even beef and mutton are only eaten meat, not offal.As for vegetables, well, if Zhang Qian hadn't been sent to the Western Regions, it is estimated that Datang would not even have cucumbers and spinach at this time.

You don't even have to think about peppers, tomatoes, and potatoes.

Empress Changsun has been in Datang for six years, and the most worrying thing is the problem of eating. Fortunately, she is dressed in the royal family and is the queen of the world, otherwise the food of Datang would really be depressed to death Empress Changsun.

For so many years, it was only when Li Zhi came to Datang that he kept bringing surprises to Empress Changsun, such as maltose, and the roast duck blood a few days ago.

At this time, the glutton in Empress Changsun's belly was aroused. As for Li Shimin and the three princesses, they were also tired of eating boiled vegetables and boiled meat, and wanted to change their tastes.

The roast duck is so delicious, at this moment they naturally expect Li Zhi to bring more delicious food.

Li Zhi looked around and felt that he was possessed by the God of Cookery at this moment. Why did everyone look at him like a female goblin looking at Tang Seng, and he was almost drooling.

"Queen, when Zhi'er was making roast duck, he asked the maid to collect a lot of duck fat."

"Duck fat?"

Li Shimin asked strangely, why does he feel that this food is not tasty?

"Brother Huang, is the duck fat delicious?"

Heng Shan also asked a question, and licked Xiaozui's lips with his tongue.

"Zhier, how much duck fat have you collected?"

"About half a tank."

"So much, what are you going to do with this duck fat?"

Empress Changsun knew that duck oil can be used as frying oil, although in later generations, duck oil is a second-use oil, which is inferior to rapeseed oil and peanut oil.But at this time in the early Tang Dynasty, it would be good to have duck fat, so there is no need to pick it.

Empress Changsun naturally couldn't directly ask Li Zhi to use this duck oil to stir-fry vegetables and fried fruit twists, so naturally she could only ask Li Zhi what to do with this duck oil.

"Queen, a few days ago Zhi'er tried to use this duck oil to fry chicken and pork. It tastes good."

"Zhier, the smell of pork is so strong, can I eat it?"

The royal family does not eat pork, not because of ethnic and religious reasons, but because of the habits of pigs and the earthy smell of pork.

"Father, onion, ginger and garlic can remove the earthy smell of pork, and it can also remove the fishy smell of fish."

"Zhi'er, you greedy cat, have you been studying how to eat all day in the Prince Jin's mansion?"

Chapter 514 Eating Meat

Empress Changsun said something on purpose at this time, and Li Zhi understood that this was the empress mother trying to smooth things out for him.

I have made so many delicious food, my father will not be suspicious at this time, and it is inevitable that I will not be suspicious after a while.

"Mother, you know that Zhi'er has always been greedy, so he went to Prince Jin's Mansion, but Zhi'er made the kitchen of Prince Jin's Mansion so busy that the maids complained every day."

Both Li Shimin and Empress Changsun laughed out loud, and the words came to an end.In the future, when the father thinks about it, he will only think of his son's mischief.

Since Li Zhi said that there are new dishes, Li Zhi will not be alone when he returns to the Jin Palace this time. His father, queen, mother and three younger sisters will follow him, so Li Zhi will naturally not stop him.

When they arrived at Prince Jin's mansion, the youngest Hengshan shouted to go to the kitchen, but was stopped by Empress Changsun, and the princess went to the kitchen, what a shame.

Li Zhi had already called Xin Ruo at this time, and asked her to go to the kitchen to order. Li Shimin took his three daughters around the Prince Jin's mansion at will, and Empress Changsun had already held Li Zhi's hand, and asked Li Zhi to take her to have a look. Pregnant Xia He and Yue E.

At this time, the two pregnant women lived in the same yard, and Chuntao was there to wait on them.

When Empress Changsun took her son over, Chuntao rushed out after hearing the footsteps.

"Your Majesty, you are here."

"You girl, I haven't seen you for a few days. When I see you in this palace, you look more and more beautiful."

Chuntao was overjoyed to be praised by the empress, at this moment, she looked into the room and led the empress and His Royal Highness into the room.

At this time, Xia He's belly is round, and the child will be born in February and March next year.

Xia He wanted to get up, but was stopped by the queen, and now she sat next to Xia He, stroking Xia He's stomach with her jade hands.

"Chuntao, call Yue'e over."

"Zhi'er, I've heard people say that you don't come here often."

"Mother, it's Zhi'er's fault. From now on, Zhi'er will definitely come to accompany the two of them."

"I will mess around all the time, and even neglect the woman who is pregnant with her own child. You don't know that it is the hardest for a woman to bear a child."

Li Zhi quickly pleaded guilty. What the queen mother said was reasonable, that is, Li Zhi has been busy recently, so he doesn't come here often.

At this time, Yue'e had also come in. She had not been pregnant for a long time, and her abdomen hadn't bulged obviously, but she had been eating very well recently, so she was a little fat at this time. She bowed to the empress, and was pulled by the empress. , also stretched his hand above her lower abdomen.

"The two of you must take good care of each other in Prince Jin's Mansion, and pay more attention on weekdays, Zhi'er, you go out first, and the mother will talk to them."

Li Zhi was obedient and walked out. As soon as he walked out, he saw that girl Chuntao looking at him eagerly.

Li Zhi hooked his fingers, the girl had already run away from Li Zhi's side, and held Li Zhi's hand as soon as she came.

"Have you thought about it?"

"What are you thinking! Your Highness?"

"Of course I'm the head of the palace maid, what else could it be?"

"Anyway, Chuntao listens to His Highness, and it's okay not to listen."

Li Zhi patted and patted that upturned buttocks, but he didn't leave his hand, pinching that upturned buttocks.

"Looking at you, I can tell that you still have a little temper. I like your petite temper the most."

"Chuntao has a small temper, or she thinks that if Chuntao takes the palace maid, it might ruin His Highness's affairs."

"Don't worry, what can you do wrong? Recently, have you asked Yue'e for more advice, or asked Sister Rui'er for some advice?"

"Sister Yue'e teaches me every day!"

"That's right, if you want me to pamper you all the time, you have to help me share your worries and do things for me."

Li Zhi said, pinching Chuntao's chin, gently rubbing her soft skin with his fingers.
