Datang: Hiding private money, exposed by Xiao Sizi

Chapter 123: Shocking Three Views!You call this the world's greatest treasure?

"Yes, old man, this old man has been to many places in his life, and he has eaten a lot of good things. He has eaten almost all the meat in the world, such as sheep from the Turkic side, venison from the Tubo side, and even meat from the Tubo side. I have eaten bear meat."

"But.... I have never eaten such a fragrant meat. It is so fragrant! This taste is even better than those meats!"

Changsun Wuji took a big mouthful of soup, looked up at the old man, and asked incomparably novelty.

This meat is really different.

He could tell that he had never eaten it! !
"Yes, old man, this meat is a little hard to control. Even if you are full, you can't help but want to eat another bite. Dare I ask... what kind of meat is this?"

Empress Changsun also asked with a smile.

"It's beautiful, it's so beautiful. This bowl of rice has meat, vegetables, and soup, and then eats flatbread. It's much more delicious than those so-called delicacies from mountains and seas!"

Wei Zheng finished eating the big pancake in his hand, and took another one in the middle of his speech.

"This meat seems a bit strange." Du Ruhui smacked his mouth, "It's more fragrant than all the meat I eat, even more delicious than mutton."

Cheng Yaojin was at the side, taking advantage of the time when the few people were talking, he added another spoonful to himself.

Let's discuss it, I'll eat it.

He has such a mentality.

the other side.

Little Sizi and Princess Changle ate even more happily, and they didn't even bother to raise their heads.

The old man wiped his mouth, patted his stomach, and said happily: "This meat is actually very common, it is pork."

He didn't hide anything, he said it directly.

"Your Majesty, since it's delicious, eat more. This meat is worthless in my Chu Palace."

The old man picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup.

When you are full, have another cup of tea.

These days, he is really much more comfortable than he is in the deep mountains and old forests.

Come to Chang'an with His Highness, this decision is indeed correct.

There are also medical skills and the book of Feng Shui.

With the books left by His Highness, his own skills have improved a lot compared to before, and gradually he has the systematic understanding that His Highness said.

It's wonderful.

The old man is still immersed in the beauty of eating and drinking.

but…….
Pata!

The chopsticks in Li Shimin's hand fell directly to the ground.

He stared blankly at the old man, his eyes were bigger than copper bells, and the eyeballs seemed to be about to burst out.

His eyes were horrified.

incredible.

Not only him, Empress Changsun, Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng and Cheng Yaojin were also stunned.

The corners of the mouth twitched.

There was a trembling between the eyebrows.

Even Princess Changle raised her head, and the movement of chewing in her mouth stopped at once.

in the whole room,

Only the cute little Sizi is still eating happily "Hula Hula".

They were at a loss.

It is also somewhat difficult to accept.

What is this meat! ?

This is... Pork? ?
What I ate just now... Pork? ? ?

This... how is this possible! !
Pork, why does it taste like this! !
How could it be so fragrant?
Pork is full of stinky fishy smell!

Impossible, absolutely impossible! !

Besides, what is this place?
This is the Chu Palace, this is the Chu Palace! !
You tell me that everyone in Chu Palace eats pork? ?

my mother!

How can they accept this.

pork?

They have never eaten in their lives!

This stuff, in the mouths of the people, is considered cheap meat, the kind of meat that is unacceptable.

Now, tell me, this is pork? ?
Just now, what I ate... and still so happy?
Boom! !
Everyone's heads felt like they were growing wildly, their minds went blank, and they even felt their stomachs were constantly churning.

Even Empress Changsun's face turned pale.

Not to mention the faces of Li Shimin and the others.

Scholars like Du Ruhui and Changsun Wuji have always despised pork.

Usually, it can be said that they don't even look at it.

The pork is even more flogged, but who would have thought that today, I actually ate... ate... this pork!

"Old man, this is...... Are you joking? This joke is not funny."

Li Shimin's throat was a little tight, and his voice became a bit like an eunuch.

Even with a smile on his face.

But... uglier than crying.

However, the old man smiled.

Laugh very happily.

"Your Majesty, aren't you looking for His Highness's private money? In fact, this thing is also a treasure."

"Why, you all look like this?!"

The old man smiled happily.

He looked at Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji Cheng Yaojin, the group of so-called emperors and princes, and their faces seemed to turn into liver-colored faces, like children who succeeded in pranks.

The old man was speechless about their frequent visits to Chu Palace.

They come here every day to snatch things from their Prince Chu's Mansion, this time it's time for you to enjoy it.

This taste is very uncomfortable, right?
The old man couldn't help but laughed again.

hiss…….
what…….
Hearing this, Li Shimin's body trembled violently again.

damn it!
damn it!
damn it!
How could this be a treasure! !

Who doesn't know about pork?
Even the common people know that this stuff is the cheapest meat in the world, but the Prince of Chu's mansion... unexpectedly, all the people eat this stuff.

Li Shimin licked his lower lip.

Although this meat is a bit fragrant, I still want to eat it.

Holy shit! !
Li Shimin quickly shook his head, picked up a glass of water, and drank it all in one gulp, trying to suppress his dangerous thought.

What do you still want to eat?
Is there any promise!

Do you like pork so much now?

Gudong.......
Li Shimin swallowed.

He put down his teacup, pointed at the meat in the pot with trembling fingers, and said in a trembling voice, "This...here, old man, this meat, the king of Chu... the king of Chu also eats it?"

The old man nodded and said casually, "Your Majesty, it's only natural."

"It was His Highness who led us to eat this pork. His Highness said that there is no more delicious meat like this in the world."

"Although mutton is good, eating too much mutton can make people angry. As for chicken, duck and fish, these meats are good to eat once in a while, but once you eat them often, it makes people sick. Only this pork is delicious! Pure !"

"Moreover, it is said that it is extremely nutritious, and it is a rare god-given good meat. If you don't eat it, it is really a pity, it is really wasteful!!"

The old man laughed.

Li Shimin's eyes were still a little dark.

Changsun Wuji, Cheng Yaojin, Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng also had bitter faces, a little unacceptable.

The reputation of this pork for thousands of years can be said to be terrible.

cheap! !

One word already explains everything.

But now...
I ate it myself...
Eternal hatred for a mistake!
They want to cry but have no tears!

No one expected that the Chu Palace would entertain guests with pork! !
"Oh, I'm so full, but Sizi still needs to eat. The old man will fill another bowl for Sizi. Sizi wants that white meat, and he wants lots and lots of white meat!!"

Xiao Si held the bowl in his hand, staring longingly at the fat in the pot.

white meat.

This is the child's pet name for fat meat.

Because fat meat has no fiber, and it tastes full of fragrance and oil, it is very popular among children.

"Okay, good, eat more, your highness, you are cute if you are white and fat, and you will grow taller at that time. When your highness comes back and sees that you are not thin, he will feel more at ease, so that he will not feel more guilty."

The old man stood up with a smile, and helped Xiao Sizi fill another big bowl.

Seeing this, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun felt their scalps go numb, and the corners of their eyes twitched wildly.

Princess Changle was beside her and wanted to stop her, but she didn't know what to say when she saw Xiao Sizi's eager eyes.

Children don't know the concept of pork.

Little Si seems to be addicted.

It was a joy to eat.

Cheng Yaojin pursed his lower lip, holding the second pancake he just took two bites of in his hand.

The little si was delicious.

He couldn't help swallowing.

This meat.... Excluding the prejudice left over from history, the taste is really good.

what!
wrong! !
Is this really pork?

impossible!

Pork is fishy and smelly, so it is called cheap meat, but the meat in this pot...
Cheng Yaojin's eyes lit up, and he looked at the old man.

"Old man, are you wrong? Are you lying to us? Pork is smelly and fishy, ​​but this meat is fragrant and glutinous. I don't know how many times better than pork. You...you must be lying us, right?"

Cheng Yaojin retorted.

It has to be said that although he is big and rough, he is good at finding blind spots.

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji, Empress Changsun, Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui all brightened up.

What the hell!

Yup!

This damn....
What does pork taste like?Although they haven't eaten it, the records in the book are detailed!
Moreover, they have all seen pigs before, and they have heard a lot about what pork tastes like on weekdays.

But the taste of this meat is extremely fragrant!

Come to think of it, it's definitely not pork!
Li Shimin's eyes were flying, and he said loudly: "That's right, old man, this is definitely not pork, don't lie to me."

Li Shimin was excited.

"Yes, yes, we all know the taste of pork, but this meat... no, no, absolutely not!" Du Ruhui shouted.

"Hahaha, old man, did I annoy you when I came here today, so you wanted to lie to us? Now, have we figured it out?" Changsun Wuji roared.

The old man sighed.

This group of people is really top-notch in self-comfort.

Cowhide!Too skinny!
The old man really can't do without admiration.

He stood up, stirred the pot with a spoon, and fished out something.

A trotter.

He put it in Li Shimin's bowl.

"Your Majesty, why do you bother? There is no denying this. Let's see what it is. I haven't eaten pork, but I should have seen pigs running. You should know what part it is."

"Besides pigs, is there a second animal with such hooves?!"

The old man's words directly stunned Li Shimin and others who had just gotten excited.

Trotters!
This is pig's trotters!

This evidence can be said to have directly stared them in place!

For a moment, everyone was silent.

Eyes, just stare at this pig's trotter!
Gudong.......
Li Shimin swallowed hard.

How could he not know pig trotters?
Changsun Wuji and the four of them were also completely silent.

This is pork, there is no doubt about it.

The air is a little dignified.

They all seem to have been sealed dumb.

The old man smiled, looked at them, sighed slightly, and shook his head.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being old and unreasonable. You still don't know the beauty of pork."

"Pork, why is it called cheap meat? It's because it's not tasty, not because it's cheap meat, so it's not tasty. Don't confuse this."

"Why don't I tell you that this... Pork is the most precious treasure in the world! It is also His Highness's absolute private money, this... is a good thing!!"

The old man suddenly felt a little sad.

He looked at the rulers of the Tang Dynasty in front of him, and felt that the common people were too pitiful. They couldn't grasp such a good thing in front of them.

Li Shimin frowned slightly, looking at the old man.not talking.

Changsun Wuji and the others were also sitting quietly, a little uneasy.

They could sense the old man's emotions.

The old man... seems to have a bit of hatred for himself and others.

"Your Majesty, and all of you, the old man has traveled all over the years and has a much deeper understanding of the people than you. Open your eyes and see how the people have been doing in the past few years?!"

"Although the common people in the Tang Dynasty are not starving to death, but... well, they can barely eat enough. Most of them are pale and emaciated, listless, and full of diseases. Why is this?"

"The old man knows that the answer is very simple, that is, there is no meat to eat."

The old man's voice was a little choked.

"I have seen too many people. They should be alive, but... because of insufficient nutrition, they died of a very small disease."

"Insufficient nutrition, one's own immunity will be very lacking. By the way, His Highness told the old man the word immunity. You can understand it as Yang Qi. If Yang Qi is weak, diseases will take advantage of the emptiness, and the people will get sick. Then , aggravated to death."

"In fact, they didn't die because of illness. The reason is that they were starved to death, and most of them did."

The old man took a deep breath, and he controlled himself not to let his tears fall.

He loves the people.

Otherwise, in these years, he would not have studied various medical techniques in a simple way, and helped the people like the four sages, Daoist Sun.

but…….
Because he loves the people and goes deep into the people, he also understands how weak his own power is compared to the world.

"Fortunately, the old man met His Highness, His Highness has great ambitions, he wants to heal the world, he wants to make all the people better!"

"Your Majesty, you don't understand Your Majesty, this meat is not cheap meat, but a good recipe that His Majesty gave me in Tang Dynasty!!"

The old man's voice was low.

There were tears in his eyes.

Thinking of the people, he couldn't help being excited.

Such a good pot of meat, but this group of people called it cheap meat!
How unfair! !

Li Shimin looked at the old man quietly.
