Empress Changsun rolled her cute eyes covertly, patted her husband's arm with a smile, and pointed forward.
Li Shimin didn't know what he muttered in a low voice, but he still took big steps and headed that way.
As he approached the target, Li Shimin's old face gradually stretched out like a chrysanthemum.
Li Mingda, who has sharp ears and eyesight, heard the noise coming from behind him. He turned his head and saw his father and mother coming hand in hand.
Jumped down from the stone and ran towards that direction. "Dad, mother..."
Seeing the girl running towards her like a fluttering butterfly, Li Shimin was already in tears and hurriedly knelt down and opened his arms.
Then he caught the precious girl flying towards him.
Li Mingda's little face arched towards his father, Li Shimin, and his big eyes flickered as he asked.
"Daddy, daddy...is the fried chicken I sent over delicious?"
Li Shimin was overjoyed and nodded vigorously, proudly.
"Of course it's delicious. Dad ate all the fried chicken you sent."
Cheng Chubi also quickly stood up and bowed respectfully to the two big men.
"Nephew Chu Bi, why are you here?"
Before Cheng Chubi could speak, Li Mingda, who had bright eyes, said loudly.
"Mom, a butterfly flew there just now, so I asked Brother Cheng San to catch it for me, and we ran over here, right Hu Shanggong?"
Seeing the sparkling eyes of Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang, Hu Shanggong didn't dare to offend this little ancestor face to face even if he had a thousand courages.
Hu Shanggong nodded quickly. "Yes, empress, that's it..."
Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang smiled sweetly at Hu Shanggong, her smile looked so sweet and full of innocence.
Li Shimin hugged Li Mingda with a smile and looked at Cheng Chubi.
"Good girl, what were you and Cheng Sanlang talking about just now, making you laugh so happily?"
"Dad, Brother Cheng San just said that he wants to do big business and make me rich, and then we can eat well and drink spicy food together."
"..." The summer wind blew quietly...
I don't know where the annoying crow came from, flapping its wings and flying over everyone's heads.
It flew into the sky between Cheng Chubi and Li Shimin, and pulled out a piece of bird poop, which landed in the middle of the two people, as if the center of a circle was drawn for a decisive battle in the Tai Chi Palace.
There was a puff, followed by a series of coughs. The gentle and skillful Empress Changsun patted her heart, as if she had just choked on her saliva.
Li Shimin's face was dark, and the corners of his eyes twitched as he looked at Cheng Sanlang who was two feet away from him.
If he hadn't been holding his cute and caring daughter, Li Shimin felt that he would definitely be able to cross this distance with one flying kick and ambush the enemy with one strike.
"Daddy, daddy, what's wrong with the corners of your eyes? Is there sand in the corners of your eyes? Let me blow it for you..."
"Well...thank you, dear girl, daddy is much better."
Li Shimin hugged his daughter and turned around to leave. He was not willing to deal with that bastard boy who wanted to make his daughter rich and go out to eat and drink.
I always feel that such adjectives are like the heroes gathering in the mountains and forests. Does my daughter need to do this?
Besides the stars, the moon and the sun, what else does she want that I can’t afford?
Queen Changsun shook her head helplessly when she saw the sullen Cheng Sanlang.
"Okay, why are you still hanging around? Come over here quickly."
I complained silently in my heart, "I am just trying to make your daughter happy, so why should I have such red eyebrows and green eyes?"
His majesty, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, may not have enough appetite.
His Majesty said nothing, and Cheng Chubi was too embarrassed to slip away so quietly, so he could only follow the team honestly.
Li Mingda was whispering to Li Shimin quietly at the moment.
Li Shimin looked at his daughter helplessly, looking at her little face full of expectation, and he really couldn't bear to say rejection.
Li Mingda began to twist in Li Shimin's arms, and the apple of his eye began to use his secret skills of coquettishness.
"Daddy, daddy is the best to me, right..."
"Chengchengcheng, my little ancestor, don't move, dad just wants to check it for you.
I'll ask that boy later, and I'm sure it won't delay my little Sizi's big job of making money."
"Well! Daddy is the best to me." Li Mingda smiled, even the grand scene of this early summer was inferior to it.
#####
After a short while, I arrived at the previous pavilion, where all the original cooking utensils had been removed.
Tables and mats had been set up inside. Li Shimin put Li Mingda down and let Li Mingda and Empress Changsun go in first.
He turned his head and ordered towards Zhao Kun. "Go and ask quickly how much pepper is in the palace now."
"Give me a detailed number, please do it quickly. Do you understand?"
Zhao Kun looked confused and didn't understand why His Majesty suddenly thought of pepper. Could it be that he wanted to give Cheng Sanlang a heavy blow with a solid reward?
Zhao Kun quickly agreed and glanced at Cheng Chubi's body subconsciously.
Tsk tsk, this guy won’t have any problem even if he carries two hundred kilograms of pepper back to Duke Lu’s mansion.
Li Shimin looked at Cheng Chubi and twitched the corners of his mouth with a smile on his face.
"You kid want to do pepper business?"
Cheng Chubi quickly shook his head and stated his point of view.
"No, no, my nephew is planning to plant pepper."
"Jiaozhou, right...can you really grow pepper in Jiaozhou?"
"Your Majesty, I have conducted a very detailed investigation and evidence collection, and I am 100% sure that Jiaozhou is the most suitable area for growing pepper in the Tang Dynasty."
"Pepper is a species that likes humidity very much, but needs a hot environment all year round."
"The Tang Dynasty is vast and vast, but the area that really fits this kind of environment is the Jiaozhou area."
"Hmm..." Li Shimin stroked his long beard. Even he, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, knew that pepper was precious.
Every year those from the Western Regions pay tribute, and there will be pepper in the tribute, but the quantity is really not much.
Even if we distribute some of it every year, and add in the palace expenses, there won't be much left.
While he was asking Cheng Chubi about pepper cultivation, Zhao Kun had already arrived quickly.
He whispered into Li Shimin's ear, and then Li Shimin nodded knowingly.
He glanced at his daughter, and then at Cheng Chubi who looked confident in front of him.
Rather than letting the children of those aristocratic families focus on Chang'an, it would be a good choice to let them set their sights on Jiaozhou.
Jiaozhou can not only grow rice that can be harvested three times a year, but also produce pepper and other spices that were very valuable in the Tang Dynasty.
Even if something happens to Jiaozhou by then, the reaction from all aspects of the court...
"That's all, since you young people have the energy to make trouble, I won't stop you."
"One ounce of pepper for a hundred pounds, right? My daughter wants ten strands, is that okay?"
