I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Chapter 464 Who is to blame for poisoning the emperor?

Tai Chi Palace, East Palace.

A pot was set up in the courtyard.

"Hey, hey..."

Little chubby Li Tai walked to the pot with firewood in his arms, panting.

Li Chengqian, Li Ke, and Li Lizhi were also busy collecting firewood, carrying oil, and stocking condiments, all of them were not idle.

Xu Fenglei touched the iron pot and nodded slightly.

"You all come here."

He beckoned.

The children quickly gathered in front of him, and Li Tai drank ice water, his clothes were already soaked in sweat.

"Do you know why you were asked to do this?"

Xu Fenglei stood with his hands behind his back and asked.

"I don't know..." All the children shook their heads.

"Today's class is a common sense class for life. It is for you to learn the basic skills for making a living!"

Xu Fenglei snorted softly,

"All of you, you have always kept your fingers away from the spring water. When it's time to eat, you just need to open your mouth, because there are servants who will feed you."

"Such people have no common sense in life! You have never even seen what raw meat looks like, let alone turning raw meat into delicious food. If you were in the wild, each of you would be able to survive independently Unbelievable trash!"

Li Tai scratched his head.

"But master, Mr. Kong said...a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen."

He retorted,

"Baby is someone who wants to be a gentleman, and doesn't bother to be a cook."

"Besides, we are all nobles of the royal family. Even if we go to the wild, there will definitely be a lot of servants serving us. Why do we need to cook by ourselves?"

There was a hint of arrogance in Li Tai's words.

As a prince, he will spend his whole life well-clothed and well-fed, and his servants will be like a cloud. Even if he travels far away, his quality of life will not be reduced. There is no time when he needs to survive independently in the wild.

Xu Fenglei sneered.

"What if one day you are in trouble?"

He crossed his arms and said,
"You have read a lot of history books. How many of those nobles in history enjoyed their life without any twists and turns?"

"A lot?"

Li Tai was slightly taken aback, and shook his head hesitantly.

"Many great figures in history have had times of downfall. After all, life is ups and downs, just like valleys."

Xu Fenglei said in a deep voice,

"When life is at a low point, let alone fine clothes and fine food, maybe you don't even know where to live at night or what to eat for the next meal!"

"At this time, if you are still the noble young master who doesn't understand any common sense of life, then it is very likely that you will no longer have the chance to make a comeback, because at that time, you will have starved to death."

"So, the general knowledge class of life is very important. I hope that you will never use the content of this course for the rest of your life, but if you are really in trouble one day, it may help you get through the most difficult period in your life."

After hearing these words, the children all became serious.

Especially Li Chengqian nodded.

"Master is right."

he said,

"I don't read many history books, but I also know that in the past Qin Huiwen Wang Yingsi was exiled to the countryside. He was a very powerful king, but he also had such a difficult trough."

"I think, if he doesn't know the common sense of life, can't cook and can't build a hut, he may have starved to death and froze to death, and Qin will have no future Mingjun."

"Qingque, you have to learn how to cook! In case of any accidents in the future, we can still have the ability to settle down."

Xu Fenglei grinned.

This kid is really sensible.

But speaking of it, Li Chengqian in history was also exiled in Qianzhou for treason, and his life was miserable... Even if he repeats the same mistakes in this life, after learning this, his life will be a little easier, right?

bah bah bah!
What exile!
Under my teaching, Chengqian must ascend to the throne smoothly and succeed in the grand unification!
"Chengqian is right!"

Xu Fenglei snorted softly,

"You are a fat bird with a big head and a thick neck. Just like that Tang Jian, you are born to be a cook!"

"Don't tell me, Princess Haogong Qianhe of Dongying wanted to learn, but she didn't want to teach her as a teacher! She even knelt down to her teacher, and the teacher reluctantly agreed to teach her a half move. You don't know the blessings!"

Hearing the words 'Princess Dongying', the children's eyes lit up immediately.

"Master, is the Dongying princess good-looking? According to rumors, she is very beautiful!"

"Master, my boy heard that the Dongying princess likes the books of Tang Dynasty, and she is spending a lot of money to buy them. How many rare copies do you have here, do you think they can be sold at a higher price?"

"Master, we don't want more Dongying Junior Sisters..."

"..."

Several children were chattering, which made Xu Fenglei a little dumbfounded.

Envoys from other countries came to Tang, but they didn't see these little guys so caring?

What are the beautiful rumors, what are the huge sums of money for books...

The Dongying people are really good at publicizing and beautifying themselves, and they have already made a name for themselves in Datang in such a short period of time.

"That's it, it's far worse than our beauty."

Xu Fenglei pinched Li Lizhi's little face and said with a smile,

"When Li Zhi grows up, we will be able to crush her!"

"You can do it now!" Li Lizhi said confidently with her swan neck held high.

"Hahaha, yes yes yes, crush her now!"

Xu Fenglei laughed unceasingly, nodded repeatedly, and then said to Li Tai,
"What kind of books are those lonely copies of yours?"

"Ancient poems, ancient music books, etc., as well as ancient books on astronomy and water conservancy." Li Tai scratched his head, and said with some embarrassment, "I want to compile a book recently, and my money is a little tight, so I wonder if I can Take some idle books to exchange for money, anyway, I have copied all those lonely books."

Xu Fenglei's eyes showed surprise.

"You can do it, kid!"

He patted Li Tai on the head and praised,

"At such a young age, you just want to compile a book? Your courage is commendable! Can you comprehend it?"

Li Tai smiled hesitantly.

"Barely, I have to ask some bachelors to help, so it will cost money."

Xu Fenglei suddenly understood.

Also, editing and compiling a book cannot be done by one person, it is a very technical job!

"Then why don't you just ask your father for money? For such a good thing, he will definitely allocate money to you generously."

he said again.

If Li Er knew that his children had started compiling books spontaneously, he would probably laugh crookedly.

"The boy wants to finish compiling this book before his father's birthday next year, and give him a surprise then."

Li Tai clung to Xu Fenglei's ear and whispered,

"So, I don't want to ask my father for money, so I ask my master to keep it secret."

Xu Fenglei frowned and nodded repeatedly.

"No wonder your father dotes on your kid, you really have tricks!"

He stroked Li Tai's head, grinning and said,

"It's okay, you can sell it! You can sell it, remember to ask for a higher price, after all, it is an isolated copy handed down from the royal family! Can it be sold at a low price?"

"Just kill her! You're welcome!"

Li Tai looked excited.

"The child understands!"

He responded angrily, and began to calculate the price with his fingers.

Or, sell all the ancient books in hand at a high price?

Anyway, there are transcripts...

"Who asked just now, will there be more junior sisters?"

Xu Fenglei glanced at the children and asked with a smile.

"I, I, I..." Li Chengqian raised his hand.

boom!
Xu Fenglei slapped Li Chengqian on the head, causing him to cover his head and scream.

"Master, what are you doing..."

Xu Fenglei snorted coldly and reprimanded:

"Return to junior sister! Is it so casual for you, master, to accept apprentices? I'll accept it if it's an individual?"

"The first rule in choosing an apprentice as a teacher is not to accept people from other countries, especially Dongying people. They have small courtesy but no great righteousness. On the surface, they are respectful, but they may secretly plan to stab you with a knife behind their backs!"

"So, even if you are a talented person, as long as you are from Dongying, you will not be interested in being a teacher. Even if you are interested, you can only suppress his interest, and you will never be interested in recruiting apprentices."

"understood?"

"Hmm..." Li Chengqian covered his head and nodded repeatedly, not daring to talk anymore.

He was afraid that he would suffer another blow.

"Okay! Let's stop talking, the first dish I want you to learn today is very simple, it is scrambled eggs!"

Xu Fenglei picked up the spatula and said,
"The things to be used are oil, salt, and eggs."

"Look carefully. Cooking is a skill. Although this scrambled egg is simple, it also needs to be coherent. Especially the process can't be wrong. Put the oil first..."

The children watched intently, and the aroma of eggs rose from the pot and floated into their noses.

……

After half an hour.

"Ah, the frying pan is on fire!"

"Quick, put out the fire!"

"Don't use water, use a pot lid, cover it with a pot lid!"

"..."

Black smoke billowed out in puffs, and Xu Fenglei's head was covered with black lines.

Just scrambled an egg, and these guys started a fire!Finally, with the help of the eunuch and maidservant, the fire was stopped and the 'Eastern Palace Fire' was extinguished.

The four children had already been smoked into black charcoal.

And the pot...was already burnt.

"Master..."

Li Chengqian scratched the back of his ear, and carefully glanced at Xu Fenglei.

Suddenly, he realized that the movement was not right, and immediately let go of his fingers, but there was already a dark patch beside his ears.

"You guys...are really geniuses!"

Xu Fenglei crossed his waist, stared and said,
"It's just scrambled eggs, but it can be done like this, I'm convinced of you!"

"Is it as oily as yours? I poured almost half a bucket of it. Are you going to scramble eggs or deep-fry evil spirits?"

The four children lowered their heads and listened obediently.

Xu Fenglei stepped forward to take a look at the charred piece of egg, and was even more angry.

These guys can't survive three days in the wild!
At this moment, he was about to have another attack, but he saw a eunuch rushing to report:

"Xu Gong, Your Majesty has summoned you, please go quickly."

Xu Fenglei turned his head slightly.

"it is good."

He responded, then immediately turned his head around, and said viciously,
"I'll take your masterpiece over now, let your father taste this peerless delicacy, and see how he evaluates it!"

The children felt guilty at the moment, how dare they speak up?He could only watch Master leave with the plate until his figure disappeared...

"Will the father be poisoned to death?"

Li Lizhi sucked her finger, raised her head and asked.

"maybe……"

"not sure……"

Both Li Tai and Li Ke looked worried.

Li Chengqian frowned.

"You said..."

He said with a troubled face,
"If the father is poisoned to death, will it be blamed on us or the master?"

……

Royal study.

Snapped.

A dinner plate fell in front of Li Shimin's face, which made him slightly startled while working at his desk.

Looking at the greasy and dark scene, he was even more confused.

"You... what are you?"

Li Er raised his head and asked.

"See Your Majesty."

Xu Fenglei saluted briefly, then said angrily,
"The masterpieces of some of your good children, I taught them how to cook today, and in the end they made something like this, which almost burned the East Palace!"

"You try it?"

Li Shimin: "???"

"This...hahaha."

He said dumbfoundedly,
"Aren't you ignorant to teach, why teach them this? They will never cook by themselves in this life."

Xu Fenglei rolled his eyes.

"That's impossible to say."

"In case something unexpected happens one day, you won't lose out if you know some life skills, and you won't be overwhelmed if you have too many skills."

Li Shimin nodded.

"makes sense……"

After all, he had a wealth of experience and quite agreed with Xu Fenglei's words.

Who is to say what will happen in the future?

This kind of skill may not be used in a lifetime, but once it needs to be used, it can save one's life!
"Let me take a closer look."

Li Shimin became interested, looked at the plate for a while, then picked it up to his nose and smelled it.

A burnt smell.

"Come on, get the chopsticks!"

he said.

"Your Majesty, do you really want to taste it?"

The personal servant suddenly became nervous, and said,

"Looking at it, it's burnt, I can't eat it..."

Li Shimin smiled.

"It's okay, the first dish my child cooks, even if it's unpalatable, I have to try it anyway."

he said,

"The queen made dim sum for the first time back then. It was too sweet and extremely unpalatable, but I finished it anyway. This gave her confidence and aroused her interest."

"Look, isn't the white fungus and lotus seed soup she makes now a must?"

The valet nodded yes and brought the chopsticks.

Li Shimin touched the egg with his chopsticks, his smile froze slightly.

"How hard is this..."

Xu Fenglei didn't collapse, and laughed out loud.

"Try it quickly, if you hesitate any longer, I'm afraid you won't have the courage to taste it."

Li Shimin glared at him.

"I don't have the courage? Are you kidding me!"

Li Er quickly picked up a piece and put it into his mouth.

In the next second, his face twisted...

"puff!"

The egg pieces stayed in his mouth for less than a second before being sprayed out.

"Bah! Bah, bah, bah! Why is it so bitter, greasy and bitter! Ahhh...I feel a little sick, bring some tea, quickly get some tea!"

The servant hurriedly handed over the tea, and Li Shimin drank a few swigs before his expression eased.

But there was still that unspeakable taste on the tip of his tongue, which made him quite uncomfortable.

"Hahahaha..." At this moment, Xu Fenglei was already laughing.

"Do not laugh!"

Li Shimin said angrily,
"I can't be the only one who tastes it, you, a master, have to taste it too!"

"You finish it for me now, hurry up!"
