Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 228

When Gao Ming went around the barracks, it was time for dinner. Seeing tens of thousands of people lined up in dozens of long lines, Gao Ming also walked up with Huzi.

Seeing Gao Ming and Hu Zi approaching, the soldiers who were queuing up for dinner stepped aside one after another, and those who were close lowered their heads, not daring to look at Gao Ming.

Gao Ming knew that his prestige was initially established.

When Gao Ming walked to the front, he saw the food of the soldiers - sesame seed cakes and broth.

The sesame seed cakes are the most common big sesame seed cakes in Chang'an City, each weighing half a catty, and the broth is pork soup.

In the Tang Dynasty, pork was cheap meat, and people with better living conditions would not eat it, so its price was very cheap.

However, the soldiers in the Tang Dynasty were all bitter. For them, it was good to have something to eat, so they didn’t pay so much attention. After getting the sesame seed cakes and pork soup, they ate it in a hurry.

They ate so deliciously that Gao Ming immediately smiled at the cook.

"Haha, I'm hungry seeing them eating, come on, give me some too!"

"Yes!"

Hearing Gao Ming's order, the cook standing next to the cauldron quickly turned around and brought out a tray from behind.

Looking at the things in the tray, Gao Ming frowned suddenly.

Gao Ming didn't frown because the food was not good, on the contrary, it was because the food in the tray was so good.

Inside the tray was a roast chicken, a bowl of delicious mutton, besides that, there were three snow-white steamed buns.

When the tray was brought out, the soldiers next to it immediately cast their gazes over with envious expressions on their faces.

Watching this scene, Gao Ming frowned even deeper.

"Hegan Chengji asked you to prepare it? Thank you!"

Originally, when he saw Gao Ming frowning, the cook was a little nervous, but now when he heard his polite words, he immediately shook his head like a rattle.

"Don't dare not dare, His Royal Highness has praised you, the little one can't afford it!"

Seeing the panicked look of the cook, Gao Ming also knew that if he continued to be polite at this time, he might be frightened, so he nodded and took the tray from him.

However, when Gao Ming took the tray, he didn't carry it away directly, but turned around and handed the tray to Huzi, and then said loudly to the surrounding soldiers: "The one standing here today is not the prince, but your commander." , is your general, so I don't do anything special!"

After finishing speaking, Gao Ming took out the roast chicken from the tray, tore it into several pieces and threw it into the big pot next to him, then poured his own bowl of mutton soup into the pot, even the steamed buns were broken by him It became a few pieces and put them into the bowls of several soldiers around.

After finishing these, he grinned at the stunned guy.

"Come on, give Commander two biscuits and a bowl of broth, hurry up!"

Seeing the scene in front of him, the cook was stunned for a moment, and after realizing it, he quickly made a big bowl of pork soup for Gao Ming, and then took two sesame seed cakes and put them in Gao Ming's hands.

After Gao Ming took the biscuit, he put it in his mouth and took a bite, then picked up the big bowl and took a sip of the broth.

Seeing this scene, the surrounding soldiers suddenly exclaimed.

"Oh god!"

"Eat! Eat!"

"His Royal Highness actually ate pork soup!"

In the eyes of these soldiers, it is very unimaginable for a person of Gao Ming's status to eat pork. It is like a leader of a country in later generations eating rat meat, which can be said to be appalling.

But after the shock, the soldiers became a little more kind to Gao Ming.

Especially the few soldiers around Gao Ming, there was still a small piece of steamed bun in their bowl, which Gao Ming broke for them just now, at this time they looked at Gao Ming with even more fanaticism.

"Long live the Commander!"

I don't know who was the first to yell, but as the sound rang out, the people around also started to yell.

"Long live His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"Long live the General!"

In an instant, the shouts of the soldiers resounded all over the barracks, and the scene of thousands of people shouting made Gao Ming a little speechless.

"Isn't it just eating a big pot of food once, do you need to make your blood boil like this?"

Although Gao didn't know why everyone was so excited, he felt that these were all details and he didn't need to pay too much attention, so he left while drinking the broth and eating sesame seed cakes.

Gao Ming didn't know that after he left, the place where he was standing just now was crowded with people, and everyone stepped forward one after another, asking the cook to serve them a bowl of soup.

The reason why the soldiers made such a request was of course not because Gao Ming threw the mutton and roast chicken into the pot, but because the soup Gao Ming had just drank was cooked in this pot.

After a while, the pot of soup bottomed out. Seeing that the pot was empty, the soldiers around reluctantly went to other cauldrons.

And already soldiers are bragging about it.

"Did you see? My bowl of soup is not ordinary. Let me tell you, my bowl of soup was made from the same pot as the Commander, who is also the current Crown Prince."

Of course, half of the soldiers in the entire military camp said the same thing, and it was difficult for everyone to tell the truth from the fake, so everyone didn't pay much attention to it, but there were a few people who attracted everyone's attention from the very beginning.

To be precise, the purpose of attracting everyone is not themselves, but the steamed buns in their bowls.

"Did you see it? Did you see it? It was given to me by the Commander, the current Crown Prince, and there is still the lingering fragrance of His Royal Highness's fingers on it."

Obviously, Yu Xiang's thing is obviously nonsense, but this does not prevent everyone from casting envious looks at them, and at the same time regretting that they didn't get closer to Gao Ming just now, otherwise they might also get a small piece of steamed bread for Gao Ming.

In the hearts of everyone, this is no longer steamed buns, but glory!

So, just as the soldier was holding the steamed bun with his chopsticks and explaining to everyone what "Yuxiang" was, a big mouth suddenly appeared in front of the chopsticks!
"Ow!"

The buns are gone...

Extreme joy begets sorrow, nothing more than that.

Faced with such a sudden situation, the soldier who was showing off was immediately dumbfounded. It was not until the other party turned and ran away that a scream came from his mouth.

"Ah...my steamed bun, you return my steamed bun!"

What's even more hateful is that the stealer is still very arrogant.

"I've already eaten the steamed buns. You can only wait until tomorrow when I pull them out for you. Hahahaha..."

"Damn it, stop!"

A bloody case caused by steamed buns is unfolding!

But these clever people don’t know, at this time he was sitting in a marching tent, eating sesame seed cakes and drinking broth, while Hegan Chengji was persuading him beside him.

"Your Highness, how can you eat this pork soup? How about I give you a bowl of mutton soup instead!"

Gao Ming was eating well, so after hearing Hegan Chengji's words, he didn't even raise his head.

"What's wrong with this pork soup? It's all natural and pollution-free, without any additives. It smells delicious and tastes good. What's wrong with it?"

What Gao Ming said was from the heart, because in future generations, even those feed pork would be ridiculously expensive, let alone the "green food" in front of him.

Seeing Gao Ming's indifferent attitude, Hegan Chengji immediately sighed.

"His Royal Highness, you don't know, this dirty hog is raised by the people next to the hut, and what they eat is those filthy things, you..."

Before Hegan Chengji finished speaking, Gao Ming raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Stop, stop talking!"

Speaking of this, Gao Ming immediately raised his head and looked at Hegan Chengji with dissatisfaction.

"I said Aki, you are sincerely not letting me eat well, aren't you?"

"not me……"

Originally, Hegan Chengji wanted to say something, but Gao Ming interrupted him again with a wave of his hand.

"You don't need to explain. When I'm eating, the most annoying thing is for people to talk about shit and shit in front of me. Now it's okay, let alone this pork soup. I can't eat it even if I get dragon liver and phoenix brain."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Hegan Chengji immediately knelt down with a "plop".

"The villain is guilty, please His Royal Highness punish him!"

Seeing Hegan Chengji's sincere expression, Gao Ming immediately waved to him.

"In order to punish you for a meal, let's not say whether you are convinced or not, even I can't pass this test myself, forget it!"

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, Hegan Chengji immediately bowed to him.

"Thank you, His Royal Highness, for your kindness!"

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming shook his head helplessly.

"It's just that your routine is deep, well, get up, don't waste this bowl of soup, you can drink it!"

"Thank you, His Royal Highness, for your kindness!"

Hegan Chengji stood up in agreement, and then drank the pork soup in Gao Ming's bowl with a happy face.

Seeing such a scene, Gao Ming nodded in satisfaction, then stood up and walked outside, and Hegan Chengji quickly followed.

At this time, the soldiers had basically eaten, and they were walking towards their tents in twos and threes.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming frowned immediately.

"It's still early before dark, why are they starting to return to their tents?"

Hearing Gao Ming's question, He Gan Chengji hurriedly cupped his hands and smiled at him: "His Royal Highness, in the past, it was dark after the soldiers finished their dinner, but today's meal time is earlier, so the soldiers have nothing to do, naturally It’s back to the tent to rest, His Royal Highness don’t mind.”

After listening to Hegan Chengji's explanation, Gao Ming immediately understood that this situation was caused by himself.

But Gao Ming didn't feel that what he did was wrong, seeing Hegan Chengji's respectful expression, he immediately laughed.

"Haha, there's nothing wrong with eating early. By the way, besides training, do you have any recreational activities? For example, playing football or something."

He Gan Chengji frowned immediately when he heard Gao Ming's words.

"Play football? His Royal Highness is talking about Cuju?"

Gao Ming thought for a while, and in this era, cuju seems to be football, so he nodded.

"Yes, it's Cuju."

Hearing Gao Ming's answer, a hint of embarrassment appeared on Hegan Chengji's face.

"Uh...His Royal Highness, something as elegant as Cuju is not suitable for us warriors, so there is no such thing in the army."

Cuju is elegant?

This is the first time Gao Ming has heard of this kind of statement, so after Hegan Chengji's voice fell, Gao Ming was stunned.

"Are we really talking about the same thing?"
