If Li Chengqian's matter could not be solved, he would not even be able to sleep well.
Now it seems that this boy has indeed learned well.
Li Shimin was naturally very happy about this.
"Southern mountains are in the south, autumn is sad in the north, there are stacks of grain in the southern mountains, and the wind is blowing in the south, and there are tombstones in the north sea, and there are tombstones in the north sea..."
Li Shimin held his daughter in his arms proudly, hummed Nan Shan Nan, and walked into the room.
…
In the kitchen.
Zhao Shi had already processed the beef and followed Li Chengqian's instructions to wash the beef and add it to the pot.
Of course, with Li Chengqian here, everything would be extraordinary.
This seemingly simple and unpretentious iron pot beef stew also has to go through layers of processes.
Tangerine peel, fragrant leaves, and aniseed are products that are not available in this era, and none of them can be missing.
And it must be paired with bean paste, otherwise the beef stew will lose its soul.
The sauce was made by Li Chengqian himself, and the condiments were bought by Li Chengqian at the system grocery store.
When the beef comes out of the pot, the aroma fills the courtyard.
Zhao Shi filled a bowl of beef by himself and handed it to Li Chengqian.
"Your Highness, please try it, does it taste like this?"
Li Chengqian took the bowl, sniffed it, then picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.
"How is it, Your Highness? Is it delicious?"
Zhao Shi asked expectantly.
"Um."
"delicious."
Li Chengqian showed a satisfied smile on his face: "You should try it too."
With that said, Li Chengqian handed the bowl and chopsticks directly to Zhao Shi.
Zhao Shi didn't dislike it either.
In other words, he has no reason to dislike it.
On the contrary, it feels like an honor.
After all, not everyone is qualified to pick up the leftover food from the eldest prince.
After tasting the beef, Zhao Shi's face suddenly showed a surprised smile.
"This is too delicious."
"If it tastes good, I'll have another bowl."
Li Chengqian was quite generous and said with a smile: "Originally, I I thought the meat from this old scalper was old and poor, but I didn’t expect it to be so delicious."
"Thanks to the pot made by His Highness."
Zhao Shi glanced at the strange-looking pot on the side.
It is because the beef is cooked first in this pot that the old and woody beef can be stewed until tender.
If not, this beef would probably chip out a person's teeth.
At this time, Zhao Shi looked at Li Chengqian: "May I take the liberty of asking, what is the name of this pot?"
"This is called a pressure cooker."
Li Chengqian explained: "Normally, the boiling point of water is about 100 degrees."
"And because of the high altitude here, the water will boil when it reaches 90 degrees."
"If you want to cook food under these conditions, you can only apply pressure to the water."
"This way, the water can reach a higher temperature without boiling, thereby speeding up the efficiency of stewing food."
After hearing Li Chengqian's explanation, Zhao Shi was really confused.
It can be seen that what Li Chengqian said is clear and logical, and he can't help but admire his little master even more.
The abilities of my little master are indeed not something that ordinary people can predict.
With such an outstanding person, he would accept it even if he could only cook and cook for the rest of his life.
But he just couldn't understand why so many people outside were scolding his master.
Among them is the sentence ‘without knowledge and without skill’.
The most unbearable thing for him.
How can an ignorant person create so many good things?
Sometimes, he really wanted to tear those people's mouths apart.
"I must learn my skills well in the future, so that I can help Your Highness teach those people a lesson."
"Yes, that's it, His Highness Ding and I will follow you."
Zhao Shi secretly made up his mind.
But who would have thought that a world-famous great eunuch would be born under such circumstances.
I saw him stunned.
Li Chengqian chuckled: "Zhao Shi, put out a separate dish."
"okay."
Zhao Shi came to his senses and hurriedly followed Li Chengqian's instructions.
Because he knew in his heart that this portion was for Li Shimin to eat alone, he made it especially delicate.
Unexpectedly, just after he finished pretending, Li Chengqian came over.
In his hand, he still held a large handful of salt.
Li Chengqian smiled evilly and sprinkled salt on the beef.
"Damn old man, I asked you to kick me."
"I still want to eat beef, let's dream..."
Seeing this, the muscles on Zhao Shi's face bulged.
This is the legendary cheating...
…
At this moment, in the main house.
Li Shimin was already a little impatient with waiting.
Even if beef is difficult to cook, it won’t take so long, right?
Li Shimin took a deep breath and looked at Cheng Yaojin: "Zhijie, go and see what this kid is doing."
"My dear, beloved, great father."
"You are here, how can I dare to make a name for myself?"
Just when Cheng Yaojin was about to go to the kitchen to take a look, Li Chengqian had already brought someone in with a large basin and a small basin of beef.
The big basin is for everyone to eat, and the small basin is naturally for Li Shimin.
You don’t need to eat it, just smelling it will make your mouth water.
Cheng Yaojin clapped his hands.
Servants and retinues came in from outside and brought bowls and chopsticks to everyone.
Li Lizhi did her job, and without waiting for Li Shimin to eat first, she took a large piece of beef and stuffed it into her mouth.
As a result, before I could taste it, I was boiling all over the floor.
"Oh my princess."
"Why are you so anxious?"
Changsun Chong felt distressed, and he helped wipe his mouth with a handkerchief, and then rinsed his mouth with herbal tea.
Seeing this scene, Li Shimin looked like an old father-in-law looking at his son-in-law. His daughter hasn’t even married him yet, so she’s so anxious to be courteous?
To be honest, pleasing my father-in-law has been a difficult problem since ancient times.
After all, you took away my little lover from my previous life.
That can't be solved by saying a few nice words and buying something for the New Year and the holidays.
Changsun Wuji was already a man. When he saw the look in Li Shimin's eyes, he knew what was going on.
The old father was obviously jealous.
While Changsun Wuji found it funny, he couldn't help scolding Changsun Chong with a straight face.
"Chong'er, don't be rude to the princess."
Changsun Chong was stunned for a moment and wanted to say a few words of defense.
But when he saw Changsun Wuji's eyes, he immediately shut his mouth.
At this time, Li Shimin picked up the bowl and chopsticks with satisfaction and began to eat meat.
His actions all fell in Li Chengqian's eyes.
Li Chengqian watched from the side with a smile on his face and unblinking eyes.
He just waited. Li Shimin ate beef and was so salty that he stuck out his tongue.
Seeing Li Shimin throw the beef into his mouth, Li Chengqian was already ready to escape.
At this moment, Li Shimin suddenly stopped chewing and looked at Li Chengqian with raised eyebrows.
Li Chengqian subconsciously wanted to run away.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Li Shimin suddenly gave Li Chengqian a thumbs up.
"Although I hate to say it, this beef tastes really good."
Um???
Li Chengqian was dumbfounded.
Didn’t I sprinkle an extra pinch of salt on it?
Didn't he eat it?
Seeing Li Shimin enjoying the meal, he was really dumbfounded.
Could it be that I sprinkled fake salt?
Just when Li Chengqian, a black man with a question mark face, was confused.
Zhao Shi outside suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and quietly threw away the bag of candy in his hand.
Mom, you scared me to death.
If His Majesty is allowed to eat that dish, His Majesty will definitely be beaten...
