Spacious and bright living room.
The two maids are ready.
Li Shimin and three other people were here just now, and the two maids felt very cautious. After all, they were facing the current Holy Emperor.
The hot pot is already steaming hot, and the bottom of the pot is filled with fresh and tender soybean sprouts.
Various dipping sauces have been carefully placed on the table.
The new tea has also been washed in boiling water.
Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang were in the kitchen, carefully slicing meat.
The meat slices used in hot pot must be as thin as cicada wings. The young master's preference made Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang increasingly sophisticated in their knife skills.
Li Shimin and three others followed Li Hao to the outside of the living room, and Li Junxian came in a hurry.
He whispered in Li Shimin's ear: "Your Majesty, Li Hao is not the biological son of the late owner of the village, but he was picked up from Luoyang in the thirteenth year of Daye..."
Li Shimin's heart thumped hard when he heard this.
"Have you asked carefully what I asked you to ask?"
"To tell you your Majesty, there is indeed a birthmark on Li Hao's left arm, and it is as big as a thumb. It was just a token from when I brought him back, and it was locked up by the late owner of the village."
Li Shimin took a deep breath excitedly and said to Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling: "Xuanling, auxiliary machine... you two go first, Jun Xian and I have something to say!"
Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji agreed and followed Li Hao into the living room.
"Jun Xian, do you know where the token is locked?"
"It's in the box in the old house."
"Let me find a way to get rid of it. If something happens, I will be responsible. Remember, if it is a red bellyband with the word "Kuan" on it, return to Chang'an City immediately and let the Queen take a look!"
Li Junxian didn't know why Li Shimin was so nervous at this time, then his position as the commander of the Hundred Cavalry Division was in vain.
It has been thirteen years. Li Shimin has been secretly searching for his eldest son for thirteen years. Unexpectedly, today in Lijia Village, he made the biggest discovery.
Li Junxian respectfully accepted the order and left. When Li Shimin saw that the food convoy had begun to load food, he took a deep breath and stepped into the living room.
No wonder I felt a particularly warm feeling when I first saw this child.
I even once suspected that I was just like this back then.
Perhaps, he was really the one he lost and his true eldest son.
"Xuanling, auxiliary machine... what are you two doing?"
Li Shimin stepped into the living room and found Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji, each holding a teacup in their hands, their eyes widened, staring hard at the teacup.
"Your Majesty, look at this tea..."
Li Shimin returned to his place, only to find that Li Hao was not there.
"I wonder where your young master has gone?"
"In response to your majesty, the young master of the village will go to the kitchen to have a look."
The two maids discovered that Li Shimin and the other three did not have much official power and were no longer as reserved as they were at first.
Li Shimin nodded and stared at the tea in front of him.
Hey, the tea is so golden that you can even see the bottom of the bowl.
What's even more amazing is that a rich fragrance hits your nostrils, making you feel comfortable in your bones.
"Your Majesty, drink it while it's hot, otherwise the tea will lose its original taste when it gets cold."
Li Shimin nodded happily, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.
It tastes bitter at first, but becomes extremely sweet when entering the throat, filling the mouth with a mellow aroma.
"Good tea, really good tea..."
Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling also closed their eyes in pleasure.
This tea is meant to be found in heaven, but it is rare to drink it in this world!
How happy and lucky it is to be able to drink this tea in life!
"Girl, can you tell me where this tea comes from?"
The two maids pursed their lips and smiled, and said: "To tell you your Majesty, the young owner of the village roasted it himself. The tea comes from the south of the Yangtze River, and it must have fresh buds..."
Li Shimin was extremely happy. If Li Hao was really his eldest son, the more capable the child was, the happier Li Shimin would be.
"Your young master is really not simple. Who did he learn from since he was a child? Why is he so smart?"
The answers of the two maids surprised Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling!
"Your Majesty, you don't know. My young master is thirteen this year. He can't speak until he is six years old. He never thought that an accidental drowning seven years ago would suddenly open his mind..."
Hearing about the accidental drowning, Li Shimin's heart skipped a beat. If Kuan'er had been alive, he would have been thirteen this year.
"I don't know. Since your young master never spoke before he was six years old, why did he suddenly drown?"
After Li Shimin finished speaking, the faces of the two little maids were also full of sadness.
"Replying to Your Majesty, although the young master never spoke, every day he would climb to the top of the hill at the entrance of the village, overlooking the direction of Chang'an City. He would go at sunrise and return at sunset. Even lunch would be delivered by us. of……"
Li Shimin felt a little severe pain in his heart.
"Seven years ago in the morning, the young master went hiking as usual. It rained all night, and the young master accidentally fell into the water. When he was rescued, he was already dead..."
"Fortunately, the young master is blessed with great fortune. He suddenly opened his eyes and called the old village master daddy..."
"When the old village owner was happy, he couldn't even breathe... he was gone..."
Li Shimin and the other three were stunned for a while.
This kid is killing me!
Just shouting and killing someone!
Especially Li Shimin, his whole body tightened!
Li Hao stepped into the living room, holding a large plate of meat slices in his hands.
"You two don't go to the kitchen to help and talk nonsense in front of His Majesty. How do you teach you on weekdays..."
The two maids stuck out their tongues playfully and slipped away to the kitchen.
"Tell Da Zhuang to bring two jars of wine."
"Oh, I see……"
Li Hao put down the meat plate and said with a smile: "Let your majesty and the prime minister, the eldest grandson Shangshu, laugh."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I think the two girls are extremely smart."
Da Zhuang brought the wine, broke the seal, and started pouring the wine.
This matter can only be done by a strong man, as the two maids cannot hold the wine jar.
Li Shimin and the three of them were secretly shocked. They didn't have food to eat anywhere else, but they had poured it out and there was still wine.
Looking at this wine jar, this wine should be home-brewed.
"My friend, is this wine brewed by yourself?"
"What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true. There is nothing I can do about it. Although I know that privately brewing wine is against the laws of the Tang Dynasty, there is too much food and it will be wasted when it gets moldy. There is nothing I can do about it..."
Li Shimin and the three of them felt miserable, but they couldn't talk about it yet.
"Forget it, I don't blame you for making wine privately. I just want to ask you, why don't you use so much food to help the victims?"
"Your Majesty, Li Hao doesn't know how to answer your question."
"Whenever refugees set foot in Lijia Village, I, Li Hao, will definitely send dry food. Only in this way can I do good deeds and accumulate merit. If I, Li Hao, donate porridge shacks, wouldn't it be like buying people's hearts with ulterior motives..."
call!
call!
call!
After listening to Li Hao's words, Li Shimin and the three of them stared at the young man in front of them with eyes like fire.
He is only thirteen years old, but he is so thoughtful.
