People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 297 Cake
It was already noon when we arrived in Jingyang, and we could smell the aroma of food as soon as we got off the carriage.

Walking into the stables familiarly, several dishes of side dishes have already been placed on the dining table.

Li Lizhi sat down and ate by herself.

Coming out of the kitchen with a bowl of bone soup, Li Zheng watched Li Lizhi eating the dishes he cooked, "Your Highness, why are you here today?"

"Someone asked me to bring you a message." Li Lizhi said after taking a bite of food.

Put the bone broth in the center, and the two sit facing each other and eat.

Several female guards turned their backs very skillfully to show the wind vigilantly.

"This is called salted duck egg, which is pure green and pollution-free by myself," Li Zheng said.

"Salted duck eggs?" Li Lizhi took a bite and said, "It tastes a bit salty, but it goes well with rice."

After taking a sip of the bone soup, Li Lizhi asked again: "What is this black thing?"

"This is soy sauce, and I made it myself, and I will sell it in our market someday."

Li Zheng picked up a piece of boiled pork, dipped some soy sauce into Li Lizhi's bowl, "Taste it."

Li Lizhi picked up the pork and ate it, "It's very fresh."

Seeing that Li Lizhi was eating in a hurry, after a meal, Duhu was very sensible and poured tea.

After taking a sip of tea, Li Zheng watched Li Lizhi wipe her mouth, "You can't eat such delicious food in the palace."

Li Lizhi put away the handkerchief, "It's just that you have to sit upright when you eat in the palace. It's too particular, so you should be more comfortable here."

"The princess just said that someone brought me a message?"

"En." Li Lizhi nodded and said, "Your gate of life and death has been unlocked."

"Tell me." Li Zheng was also a little surprised.

Li Lizhi said in a low voice: "The two guards guarding the gate of health and the gate of death, as long as you kill one of them, you can ask which is the gate of life and which is the gate of death."

"It's interesting." Li Zheng smiled.

"Isn't it?"

"No." Li Zheng shook his head.

"That's why it's not unlocked?"

"Misunderstood my question."

Li Lizhi raised her head and asked, "Then how do you solve this problem?"

Li Zheng shook the goose feather fan in his hand and said: "The way the person you said just now solved the problem was wrong in the end. If he kills one of them, he can only get one answer. You can only choose to believe."

"In this way, there will be no way out, and there will be no way to survive. It seems to be solving the problem, but in fact it is trying to simplify a complicated problem, but ignoring that this is a very complicated problem."

Seeing that Li Lizhi was a little confused, Li Zheng smiled and said, "It's a bit confusing, isn't it?"

"Indeed." Li Lizhi said with her hand on her chin.

Li Zheng said: "For example, there are a group of people in front of you who say that is the gate of life, and another group of people say that is the gate of death. After you kill a group of people, you can only get one answer, and you lose the conditions for argumentation." , which turned out to be wrong.”

"Indeed." Li Lizhi nodded.

"However..." Li Lizhi looked at Li Zheng and said, "If you can't come up with the correct way to solve the problem, it will be difficult for this princess to convince me. Don't worry, I will never tell your answer."

Li Zheng took a sip of tea and said: "His Royal Highness, listen carefully, there are gates of life and gates of death in front of me, as well as a guard who can only tell the truth and a guard who can only tell lies."

Li Lizhi nodded to signal Li Zheng to continue.

"Then I will ask the next question." Li Zheng said, waving his goose feather fan, "I don't care which one can tell the truth and which one can tell the lie. I will ask one of them first. Is the one who tells the lie guarding the gate of life?"

The words stopped abruptly.

Li Lizhi fell silent.

"For example, the answer received is: no." Li Zheng said with a smile: "He must be guarding the gate of death."

Seeing that Li Lizhi still looked confused, Li Zheng said, "Your Highness, don't think too much, there are thinking traps in this question."

"Thinking trap?"

Li Zheng nodded, "It's the same thinking trap as the thaumaturgy of infinite wealth and the connection of nine palaces."

Li Lizhi heaved a long sigh, "It seems that she was reckless."

"Xianhou, the cake is ready, do you want it out of the pan?" Duhu came back and said.

"Pour over the cream and bring it out."

"okay."

Dahu came with a cream cake and placed it between the two of them.

Li was lighting a candle in the middle of the cream cake, "To tell you the truth, Your Highness, today is my birthday, after today I will be 13 years old."

"Your birthday?"

Cut off a piece of cream cake and handed it to Li Lizhi, saying: "I wanted to make egg noodles today, but I prefer egg noodles to cakes. A batch of chicks have just hatched in the village. After making cakes, my family doesn't have enough eggs." used."

"Aren't all the eggs in the village yours?"

"The village chief's grandfather shared it with each family. I have at most 20 or more. I will wait until the next time the hens lay eggs and then divide them. I will also keep some hatchlings."

Li Lizhi took a bite of the cream cake, which contained some dried fruit.

"It's delicious." Li Lizhi ate with a smile on her face.

The little girl finally smiled, she looked unhappy when she came here today.

Sure enough, since ancient times, girls have no resistance to sweets, such as cakes.

The cake is very big, and you will be full after one bite. Li Lizhi regrets eating so many meals before.

Li Lizhi went back with the remaining half of the cake contentedly.

On the way back to the palace, passing the residence of the warrior Xun, Li Lizhi said to Wu Mei who had been waiting at the door of her house: "Your answer is wrong."

"Wrong." Wu Mei stood still, "How could it be wrong?"

"I thought wrong from the beginning, and no matter how I answered it later, it would be wrong."

After Li Lizhi finished speaking, she asked the coachman to drive the horse back to the palace.

Wu Mei stood there suspiciously, wrong?

If you think wrong from the beginning, you will only make mistakes again and again later.

Sitting in front of the steps of her own house, Wu Mei thought back and forth about life and death.

"Then what is the correct answer?" Wu Mei was still thinking, Li Zheng asked this question, and all the scholars in Chang'an may not be able to answer it.

Even His Royal Highness King Wei and the present prince could not answer, Wu Mei became more and more curious about Li Zheng.

It wasn't until the rain fell that Wu Mei returned to her home.

Li Lizhi returned to the palace and distributed the cake to her younger brothers and sisters.

He was about to take a piece of cake to distribute to his father, when he just walked outside the Ganlu Hall, he heard the discussion inside.

Hearing Wei Zheng's voice and Fang Xuanling's voice, they were vaguely talking about Songtsan Gampo, the king of Tubo.

Li Lizhi walked into the hall and the discussion stopped.

"Father, this is a cake." Li Lizhi put the cake on the table.

Sensing the somewhat dull atmosphere in Ganlu Hall, the emperor father and several ministers all put on a straight face.

Li Lizhi put down the cake and left.
