The county fruits, pears, peaches and vegetables picked from the greenhouse are quickly turned into delicious delicacies under the processing of the imperial kitchen chef.
Li Shimin and Li Mingda are very picky about what they eat, especially the composition of the food, which must include meat.
The family sat together in front of the huge round dining table. In the center is an iron plate with some charcoal fire placed on it. The charcoal fire is put on the grill. The roasted whole lamb is still sizzling and oily while being heated by the charcoal fire.
After the mutton grilled with fruit charcoal and brushed with honey, the special aroma greatly increases everyone's appetite.
A joyful meal
After eating, they took a short rest in the courtyard. Under the leadership of Li Shimin, the family climbed the hillside.
The afternoon was spent drinking tea and chatting. Changsun found an opportunity to ask Li Mingda about the current protection of women and children's rights in Datang. The current atmosphere in Datang is getting better and better, but there is still a long way to go to protect rights and interests. The eldest grandson was thinking about whether he should go out and continue to work on this.
"Xiao Sizi, I plan to put down the issue of women and children's rights. Who do you think is suitable?" Changsun's eyes scanned the family members around Li Mingda. Her family members only knew superficial information.
"Mother, you don't plan to continue to take charge of this business. To be honest, I think you are doing a good job in this business." My mother is meticulous and conscientious in her work. It would be best if she continued to take over this business.
As a result, the eldest grandson shook his head and said firmly, "No, I plan to continue to live a pastoral life with your father, without being disturbed by those trivial things, and be free and at ease." The eldest grandson's words were plain, but the truth was true.
Among my family members, apart from Xu Hui, there are no others, but if she is asked to handle it, she is sure to be safe, but she does not have enough experience and ruthlessness. Li Mingda looked at his family members, and it seemed that except for Murong Xue and Lin Dong, no one else could do it alone.
Anyway, this area is still running normally. Lin Dong and Zhao Xiaomeng occasionally go to help the cabinet deal with it. "Then let's do this for now. They all perform their respective duties. Let's look for two people later." Li Mingda didn't have much to do either. That was the answer.
When they heard that they were looking for two people, the eyes of the family members changed instantly.
It was obvious that they were going to expand the harem. Murong Xueji winked at Wu Jue and others: Everyone, hold on, let's go back and talk alone.
Wu Jue: What bad idea do you have?
Lin Dong: I am innocent.
Zhao Xiaomeng: I am a melon-eater.
Xu Hui and Zheng Wanli:......
Murong Xue: What if there is another person who is prettier and more capable than you, Xiao Wujue? You will become a size three and a half.
Wu Jue: Why is it number three and a half?
Murong Xue: I'm still not ranked No. 1. If you don't, it's half.
Wu Jue: That seems to be the case.
She was finished. Why did Murong Xue call her that she could not reach No. 1? Her brain circuit was distorted by Murong Xue.
The people in the family were sending some looks, but Li Mingda just glanced at her briefly and continued to get tired of being beside his mother.
Seeing that Li Mingda didn't pay attention to them, Murong Xue became even more unscrupulous and started an emotional exchange with Wu Jue that lasted ten thousand words with her eyes.
Lin Dong, Zhao Xiaomeng and Zheng Wanli and Xu Hui were eating watermelon and watching their performance.
Happy time always passes quickly. After a simple dinner in the afternoon, Li Mingda said goodbye to Lao Li and his mother, and returned to Tai Chi Palace with his family members.
On the day when Li Mingda was away, the atmosphere in the imperial study was particularly relaxed. Fang Xuanling and others finished the day's government affairs early and returned home.
At the residence of Duke Wei of Li Jing, she looked at Li Jing who had returned home early and was practicing dancing in the courtyard with a confused look on her face.
"Pharmacist, why are you back so early today? Is there something wrong?"
Li Jing looked at his wife Hong Fu, especially her dancing posture just now, which reminded him of the night he was at Yang Su's residence in Sikong, Sui Dynasty.
Seeing that Li Jing didn't answer him directly, his eyes were a little blurred, and a springy smile leaked from the corner of his mouth. Hongfu's face was slightly displeased: Did this Medicine Master Li feel that he was getting old and losing his luster, and was thinking about that young girl?
However, it seems that he is indeed not too young and should find two concubines for him. Some of the dancers whom I personally trained were quite good, with excellent figures, appearance, and conduct.
Li Jing came back to his senses, looked at his wife Hongfu, and reached out to hold her hand, "Hongfu, watching you dance just now reminded me of when I was at Yang Su's house."
Sure enough, this big pig's hooves reminds me of me when I was young and beautiful.
Hong Fu Nu said to Li Jing who was holding her hand, "Yakist, I plan to find you two concubines. What do you think?"
Concubine?
Li Jing looked confused. He was old, and he didn't want to have two more cubs. What kind of concubine did he want?
"Hongfu, I'm old, why do I need a concubine?" Looking at his wife's eyes, the tacit understanding between husband and wife for many years made Li Jing wake up. He knew that Hongfu had misunderstood him, so he hurriedly "Hongfu, I just remembered the time you and I were together, and I didn't have any other thoughts."
Hong Fu looked at Li Jing with a suspicious look on his face, "Really?" She didn't believe that Li Jing didn't mean this. In fact, Li Jing didn't have a concubine in his family. She had brought up a concubine to help Li Shimin travel around the world and gather information. After he became successful, a few parts that could survive a good death remained in the mansion.
There are children between them and Li Jing. The difference between Li Jing and his descendants is the right to inherit the title. Everyone else is doing well.
"real?"
Hong Fu: "You didn't look like this when you first took in my little sisters."
Li Jing's old face turned red. "This is all in the past. Alas, your hands are like this." Hong Fu's hand held hands and there was a trace of siltation. Although it was not very obvious, there were still slight bruises.
Hong Fu Nu's face froze, "This was sprained while dancing the sword. Isn't it going to heal soon?" Hong Fu Nu covered her wrist with her sleeve, and the master quickly covered it.
"Oh, that's it. Madam, please pay attention in the future."
"Know it"
The couple walked harmoniously in the yard until after dinner. Li Jing went to the study to read, and Hongfu Nu began to organize the housework for the day.
In the study, Li Jing said he was reading, but in fact he didn't read at all. He was a military commander and had been married to Hong Fu for many years. He could interpret Hong Fu's every move. The scar on his wife's wrist was obviously not a slight sprain, but a reverse injury caused by forcefully stabbing her with a sword during a fight. Today's move to cover her sleeves was obviously a cover-up.
