Nine hundred and thirtieth chapters stimulate the law
He took out the fire stick and ignited the wax block under the pot, and immediately the flames burst out.
Du He turned around and brought up the box again. In the box, there were clean and washed vegetables that had been prepared. There were six plates in total, including a plate of potatoes and a plate of pork slices.
In a short time, the soup in the pot began to boil, and Du He poured all the vegetables into it in time.
Then, he took out two pairs of bowls and chopsticks, handed them to Li Er and Empress Changsun himself, and said with a smile: "Father and empress, please have a meal!"
Dinner?
The banquet has not started yet, do you want to start eating?
Li Er was somewhat reluctant at first.
However, he just saw Du He putting fresh vegetables into the pot to cook, and he couldn't help but swallowed his saliva.
I am used to eating big fish and meat, but I haven’t had fresh vegetables for several months. I miss it so much!
So he nodded: "If that's the case, then I'll give it a try!"
Li Er and Queen Changsun each picked up their bowls, picked up their chopsticks, picked up a piece of potato, and stuffed it into their mouths, shivering from the cold.
Just took a bite.
Mmm, soft!
It was cooked very well.
But at this moment, Li Er felt that the potatoes in his mouth were like thorns, burning, and like a ball of fire burning in his mouth.
People who are used to eating chili may not notice it, but those who eat it for the first time will definitely feel it is very sour and refreshing.
At this moment, Li Er was in trouble and couldn't tell.
Tears were brought to his eyes.
His mouth trembled, and he swallowed the potato in one bite.
Looking at Queen Changsun again, she was also confused. She quickly asked others to pass the silk scarf to cover her mouth. She only felt that her mouth was spicy, and she soon lost the feeling.
Li Er suddenly frowned and was about to scold Du He.
At this moment, he suddenly felt hot all over.
There was actually a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead.
It felt extremely cold just now, but now it feels very warm.
After the spicy taste came over, I felt an indescribable feeling of comfort.
This was a taste he had never experienced before.
Um?
It’s interesting!
Li Er glanced at Du He and thought, this is my son-in-law, he will never harm me no matter what.
So, he picked up the chopsticks again, picked up a vegetable and stuffed it into his mouth.
This time, he was mentally prepared and Li Er chewed carefully.
hot!
It's really too spicy.
After eating it, I was sweating all over.
But it is precisely because of this that I feel extremely comfortable all over.
Li Er seemed to understand Du He's intention and asked: "Du He, what's so special about your soup?"
Du He introduced with a smile: "Father, this soup is called Warm Heart Soup. Are you satisfied with it?"
Li Er nodded appreciatively: "Heart-warming soup, good... What a heart-warming soup. This soup is something I have never tasted before... Okay, hahaha... If you still have it, take it out and invite everyone."
Let’s eat together!”
Du He shook his head: "Father, in the whole world, there is only one pot, and there will be no more!"
"What a pity!" Li Er originally wanted the civil and military ministers to try it, but there was nothing they could do.
Li Er stood up and immediately announced: "Dear ladies, I announce that the best gift for today is Du He's heart-warming soup. Let's have a banquet!"
What?
Everyone was dumbfounded.
The best gift is a pot of soup?
Originally, everyone agreed that the best gift this year was fertilizer for Prince Li Chengqian. Who would have thought that it would actually be a pot of soup.
"Is there anything special about the soup?"
"Why is it called Heart-warming Soup?"
"Du He, the sun-hungry guy, is he making ecstasy soup?"
"His Majesty has always valued the country and advocated frugality, but now he actually says that Du He's pot of soup is the best?"
"Does anyone know what's going on?"
Everyone was talking about it.
During the court banquet, everyone secretly glanced in the direction of His Majesty Li Er from time to time, only to see His Majesty and the Queen guarding the pot of soup, reluctant to leave even half a step, chatting and laughing while eating.
As for the delicacies prepared by the royal chefs, His Majesty and the Queen did not move a single chopstick or even glance at them.
Now, everyone is even more curious, what is the heart-warming soup?
The banquet ended quickly and everyone left Tai Chi Palace one after another.
Du He stood up and turned around, but was shocked.
In front of him, he saw a dense crowd of people.
One by one, their eyes were staring straight at Du He.
The leaders were Wang Gui, Changsun Wuji and others.
"You... what are you going to do? Let me tell you, this is the Tai Chi Palace. If I take action, I'm afraid I'll beat you all to death." Du He waved his fist and threatened.
Everyone: "..."
Wang Gui asked hurriedly: "Du He, I want to ask you, what is the secret of your heart-warming soup? Why is it regarded as the best gift by His Majesty?"
"Yes, Prince Consort Du, what's so special about the heart-warming soup?"
"Is it possible that your soup has an extraordinary origin? There is something very tonic in it?"
"..."
Everyone asked in a hurry.
Du He felt relieved now. He originally thought that these gangsters were going to start a fight.
He smiled and asked: "You want to know?"
Everyone nodded in unison.
Du He took out a chili pepper from his arms, showed it to everyone, and introduced: "My lords, in fact, that heart-warming soup is just an ordinary hot pot. The reason why it is special is that I added this
Thing, this thing is called Chaotian pepper, it can be called a divine thing. Just a small one can be added to soup or dish to enhance the flavor, turning the originally chewy dish into a delicacy in the world.
Do you think God is not miraculous?"
Everyone looked up and down at the small chili pepper in Du He's hand, all envious.
Needless to say, no one has ever seen this thing before, so Du He must have gotten it from somewhere.
Changsun Wuji sneered and said: "Du He... who are you kidding? Is this thing really so magical? It's just empty talk. Why don't you give me this hot pepper and let me go back and try it!"
He just wanted to use this provocation method to trick a sky-high pepper into coming over.
Originally, this was a very inferior method.
Unexpectedly, Du He was actually fooled: "Okay, Master Changsun, if you don't believe it, just take this one back and try it."
Du He then handed the Chaotian pepper to Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji took it and hurriedly stuffed it into his sleeve, turned around and ran away. He was afraid that Du He would regret it.
People around him tried to persuade Du He not to hand over Chaotian Pepper to Changsun Wuji, but Du He smiled noncommittally and didn't care.
…
Tai Chi Palace.
Everyone dispersed.
Du He took the two princesses and walked out.
Suddenly, he saw a lost figure in front of him.
It was Li Ke, the king of Shu.
Li Ke walked alone, stumbling like an old man in his twilight years, muttering something in a low voice.
On a very cold day, he was naked inside, wearing only simple clothes woven from leaves, and only a loose robe on the outside.
This is because this guy is physically strong. If it had been anyone else, he would have been lying on the ground in the cold.
Du He hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness, why are you so sad?"
