Chapter 164
The whole person is different, how long has it been?

Is that really Duho?

Du Ruhui wiped his eyes vigorously, and when he saw Du He coming forward, kowtowed to himself on the ground, he couldn't help crying.

Li Shimin was secretly surprised by the changes in Li You and Li Yin.

What did the daughter of the Cheng family do to them?
How can it be reborn in such a short period of time?
Repressing the wonder in his heart, Li Shimin planned not to go back today, but to stay in Xiaoqingzhuang to observe carefully.

Speaking of which, he hasn't come to see this girl since Zhuangzi gave it to her.I only heard people report that this place has become a land of fish and rice. The emperor of Chongyang County has done a lot of construction work and made a lot of tricks in the village. Recently, he has also invented a new steelmaking method and a thing called cement.

This cement is very magical, and it is a sharp tool for paving roads, building bridges and building bunkers.

So he personally escorted his grandpa here, and by the way, he also wanted to see how this Zhuangzi was different.What method did that girl use to make the crops more productive?

Li Shimin personally escorted Li Yuan to Xiaoqingzhuang, and the whole Xiaoqingzhuang was boiling.

Liu Wenhui, the county magistrate, also came early to greet Shengjia, and the farmers of Xiaoqingzhuang were even more excited, flocking to the gate of Zhuangzi to see the sky.

The voice of shouting long live three times resounded through the clouds, and Li Shimin helped Li Yuan into Zhuangzi.

"The concubine (the courtier's daughter) and the young and old of Xiaoqingzhuang welcome the holy driver, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Be flat!"

Li Yuan and Li Shimin raised their hands together, and the farmers shouted again excitedly, "Long live, long live, long live!"

Li Shimin personally helped an old man up, seeing his ruddy complexion and bright spirit, he nodded in satisfaction, and asked, "What is your age this year, old man?"

The old man was trembling with excitement, as if he couldn't even speak clearly, "Back, back, back..."

"Qigong, calm down, calm down..."

Yang Xiaoran was really afraid that the old man would faint from excitement, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, this Wang Qigong is seventy-one this year, the so-called people who are over seventy are rare in ancient times, seeing the sky for the first time, I hope your majesty will forgive me if I am rude."

Li Shimin glared at Yang Xiaoran, and said, "Could it be that I'm a tyrant?"

Then he patted the old man's hand with an amiable face, "Old man, don't worry, speak slowly."

The old man was so moved that tears came out, and his mouth, which was missing two front teeth, shriveled and mumbled: "Thank you, thank you, Your Majesty."

As he spoke, he reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.

Seeing how amiable today is, everyone was even more excited, and they took out the special products they had prepared.

There are pickled salted duck eggs, preserved eggs, bacon, sausage, smoked chicken and smoked fish.They are all produced by Zhuangzi, they are worthless, but they are full of heart.

Li Shimin asked people to accept all the things with a smile, and then with a big wave of his hand, each family rewarded them with a piece of high-quality silk.

The people were even more crazy, and kowtowed again and again to thank them.

"The Supreme Emperor and His Majesty have come from a long distance, and I think they are tired. The courtiers and Auntie have already prepared a reception banquet..."

Yang Xiaoran paused, a little hesitant.

Li Yuan snorted coldly and said, "Speak up if you have something to say, don't use your cleverness for this."

Yang Xiaoran stepped forward to help Li Yuan with a smile, and said with a little coquettishness: "You can't hide anything from your old man."

Li Yuan reached out and tapped her forehead, "Smart! Tell me, what's going on?"

Li Shimin chuckled, "Father still doesn't know about this ghost girl? She must have promised someone something. This is clearly a request."

Yang Xiaoran stuck out his tongue, made a grimace and said, "Nothing can be hidden from the Holy Son of Heaven."

Li Shimin smiled lightly, waved at Li You and Li Min, and said, "Okay, let's talk about it. I made my son look like he was reborn, and I promise you whatever you ask for today, it's a reward."

"really?!"

Yang Xiaoran's eyes glowed.

Li Shimin's face darkened, "Don't tell me you want yellow and white things again, heh heh, the money you earn in a month is almost as much as the sum of several counties in a year, why do you need those things?"

Yang Xiaoran blushed, shook Li Yuan's arm and said: "The Supreme Emperor, look at Your Majesty, how can you entertain me, how can I be the kind of person who takes advantage of money?"

Li Yuan laughed loudly, this girl can always bring surprises to herself.

She is not afraid of not talking about herself at all, not even her own son, but behaves more like her own granddaughter.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan was even more satisfied with Yang Xiaoran.

The same goes for the granddaughter-in-law.

Li Yuan, who had lost several sons, enjoyed this girl's coquettishness very much, which made him feel a little like a grandfather. He patted Yang Xiaoran's hand, and said with a straight face on purpose: "You girl is so awkward, the old man The old bones will be twisted by you."

"How could it be? Your Majesty, your old man's demeanor is still the same as before, and you will grow old and strong, and you can live for a hundred years!"

"Isn't that an old turtle?" Li Yuan deliberately teased: "Well, you compare me to a bastard?"

"How could it be? The dragon has nine sons, and the tortoise is also the son of the dragon. It is always different from others, and the dragon is so angry!"

Fang Xuanling and eldest grandson Wuji finally couldn't bear it anymore, pointed at Cheng Yaojin and said, "Yizhen, how did you teach this child? Witty, witty, this reaction is fast enough!"

Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly, and said: "My precious girl, if I can, I really want to keep her forever, the whole pistachio, the old man is not happy, just say a few words to this girl, all troubles will be gone."

Li Shimin stroked Li You's head, and said with a smile: "This is a way to teach people, You'er and Min'er are much stronger."

"Your Majesty's words are great!"

Du Ruhui pulled Du He, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, "This, this has changed too much. At the beginning, the old officials didn't even dare to admit it. This, this is like a different person?"

"Father, my son was too stupid before. If the county lord hadn't given me some guidance, my son would have gone astray."

Du He said seriously: "But in the future, my son will not mess around and make his father angry."

As he spoke, the corners of his mouth slowly rose, showing a brilliance on his face, and two eyes gave out a radiant brilliance, "After studying with the county lord for a while, my son realized how ignorant I was before, and how many interesting things there are in this world. I have never seen my son. My son has made an appointment with the fifth prince and the sixth prince. When we succeed in our studies, we will build a big ship and go to sea to find our descendants of China, and take America for His Majesty, Australia and other uninhabited lands."

"Chinese descendants? America, Australia? What do you mean?"

Li Shimin was stunned, and said, "Tell me in detail."

Yang Xiaoran hurriedly stopped, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor, Grandpa, let's eat first, and chat while eating."

After a pause, she said again: "My daughter actually doesn't have any special requirements, it's just that these villagers are so kind and want to taste the special products of the village with your majesty and the Supreme Emperor."

"Ha, what should I do? That's why."

Li Shimin smiled and said: "Yes! I will have fun with the people today, daughter of the Cheng family, use all your skills, if you want to eat unhappy, I only ask you!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

A lively village banquet was held in Xiaoqingzhuang.

In fact, three days ago, Cheng Chumo came here first and told himself that a group of ministers and emperors would escort the Supreme Emperor over so that she could get ready.

After all, although the Supreme Emperor has no rights, his status is there.

Li Shimin wanted to be a filial son again, so he not only came here himself, but also called a group of ministers to inspect Xiaoqingzhuang.

The imperial guards brought hundreds of people, plus a group of civil and military officials and followers, this team is not to mention how spectacular it is.

No wonder Li Shimin wants to expand his house.After he left, Li Yuan had to stay here, the guards must be indispensable, the two hundred guards were a must.

There are so many people, they can't live in tents every day!
With Cheng Chumo's explanation in advance, Yang Xiaoran consulted with Mrs. Pei, and felt that it was necessary to inform all the farmers about this matter.

Calling the heads of the various households, these people were so excited that they were about to cry on the spot, and they came up with ideas one after another.

In order to let Li Shimin and Li Yuan feel everyone's love and affection, Yang Xiaoran made up his mind early in the morning to let the two emperors have a banquet to enjoy with the people.

There is everything in Zhuangzi, including chicken, duck, fish, pigs and sheep.Vegetables and short-season fruits are also available, so I have to go to the county town for emergency purchases.

With Liu Wenhui's help, these are not difficult tasks.This old ghost also had a cheeky face, and on the pretext of being loyal to the emperor, he brought a few people of some status from the county government to have fun with the people.

Some preparations have been done long ago, and a group of women from the farmers came to help, typical farm dishes.

I learned how to cook vegetables from the county master, and when I fired the cement, I also got briquettes, and lime was added in it, so I made it directly into anthracite briquettes.The family sent a dedicated stove, and brought an iron pot.

They are all leftovers from manganese steel smelting, waste utilization, one for each family.

Now they all moved to the threshing ground, which was in full swing, and the scene of dozens of stoves lighting a fire and cooking together was quite spectacular.

The dishes are typical farm dishes, eight meat and eight vegetables, and a soup to take away.

This is eight bowls.

This is the highest standard banquet in the farmhouse.

Stir-fry the farm meat, add the new product chili in it, it looks good and delicious!

Artificially cultivated double-eared eggs, preserved eggs mixed with tofu, fried diced chicken with yam, pork ribs with sauce...

It's a pity that the soy sauce has not been eaten yet, otherwise today's farm banquet will be even more brilliant.

The chef of the Cheng family became the commander-in-chief, and he also taught these women to cook on weekdays. Ordinary people eat like the big and small daughters-in-law of the farmer; Excited, not tired at all.

How many times in a person's life can he serve two generations of kings and these important ministers at the same time?
The outer and inner walls of the county lord's mansion are covered with thick sackcloth. It's hot, and eating under the sun will make you lose your appetite for the most delicious food.

For several days in a row, a large amount of ice cubes were made with saltpeter. They are only used to cool off the heat, and they don’t need to be so particular. I borrowed large tanks from every household, fetched water, and made ice directly. There is a coolness.

The entire County Lord's Mansion is full of such large vats, so that when Li Er and Li Yuanyi came in, they thought that the County Lord used his power for personal gain and used the craftsmen sent to build a cool palace for himself!
