Datang: My apprentice is Li Chengqian

Chapter 98 Does your conscience not hurt?

"How many people have not even solved the problem of food and clothing, but you are complaining that the nightlife is not rich enough. Qin Xiedao, won't your conscience hurt?"

Before Chang He could answer, another voice came from Qin Xiedao's ear.

"This is a question that the court ministers need to consider. If they are not in their positions, they will not plan their own affairs..."

Qin Xiedao had just finished speaking halfway, when he realized something was wrong.

This voice sounds a little familiar.

At this moment, Chang He's expression changed with fright.

After finally being lazy once, he was caught by Li Shimin.

This is like the working people of the later generations. They used to work hard every day, earn less than beggars, and do more than their bosses. Finally, they got lazy one day and went out for some personal affairs, but they ended up running into their bosses.

this mood...

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

Fortunately, Qin Xiedao's reaction was not too slow, and he didn't finish his sentence completely.

However, even so, Li Shimin's face was full of displeasure.

"I heard that you have been on duty diligently at Xuanwu Gate during this period of time. You stopped messing around and wanted to come over to encourage you. In the end, you are doing well. The refugees outside are starving and cold, and you are hiding in the battlements and drinking warmly." Little wine, eating hot pot, the little life is more comfortable than mine."

The more Li Shimin talked, the more angry he became, and the more he talked, the more he felt that what kind of life was he living?
Not a school captain is comfortable yet.

"Your Majesty, is the refugee problem outside serious?"

Qin Xiedao has been living a two-point and one-line life during this time, and he really doesn't know much about things outside the city.

"Tens of thousands of refugees gathered outside the city, and the number is still increasing. Nowadays, there is a lack of clothing and food, and the weather is getting colder and colder. Marquis Wu, who patrols the streets every day, has to push several carts of corpses to the mass graves. You are serious. serious?"

Although Li Shimin felt that he shouldn't get angry at Qin Xiedao, but he couldn't get angry when he saw that this guy had such a happy life.

"Your Majesty, please appease your anger. There are always more solutions than problems. There are so many ministers in the court, all of whom are talented, and they will definitely be able to find a solution to the refugee problem.

Why don't you sit down and eat some hot pot first, Weichen has a habit, when he is in a bad mood, he likes to eat more, eat delicious food, and his mood will improve after eating. "

Qin Xiedao looked like a dog's leg, and set up a stool for Li Shimin to sit down.

In the cold weather, seeing the hot hot pot, Li Shimin couldn't help feeling hungry.

It's not that he has never heard of hot pot.

After all, Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong took the lead in publicizing that in Chang'an City, many generals have started to eat hot pot in their homes.

It's just that the food and clothing in the palace has its own rules.

Unless Li Shimin specifically ordered the imperial dining room to prepare hot pot, no one would be so bold as to put this kind of unworthy food in front of Li Shimin.

This led to the fact that although Li Shimin had heard the name of hot pot for a long time, he had never eaten it once.

Now that the opportunity was in front of him, he naturally sat down without hesitation.

"It's best to use small fat lamb to slice this hot-boiled lamb. After putting the lamb outside in the cold for a while, it will become easy to slice.

Look, Your Majesty, this slice of mutton, as thin as cicada's wings, will be cooked in no time as long as it is passed in the boiling copper pot.

Then dipped in a little cornel sauce, it is absolutely delicious in the world. "

As Qin Xiedao spoke, he demonstrated with clean chopsticks, and then put the cooked mutton in Li Shimin's bowl.

Wang De on the side opened his mouth, trying to prevent Li Shimin from directly eating the food of unknown origin.

However, Li Shimin was very interested, and the food on the table was what Chang He and Qin Xiedao were eating just now.

So in the end, he stood behind Li Shimin without saying a word.

"How can you eat mutton like this? This dogwood sauce has a very strange taste."

After Li Shimin took a bite, he immediately fell in love with this kind of food.

Next, without Qin Xiedao saying anything, Li Shimin quickly killed a large plate of mutton.

"Your Majesty, come, try this cabbage. After eating a large plate of mutton, some cabbage is definitely the best match."

Qin Xiedao saw that Li Shimin was no longer obsessed with his cheating and cheating, so he hurriedly helped to boil a few womb cabbage leaves.

"Well, eating some cabbage can really relieve the tiredness."

Li Shimin enjoyed Qin Xiedao's service unceremoniously.

However, just after he swallowed a mouthful of womb cabbage, he was stunned.

"It's winter, where did you get the cabbage?"

When Li Shimin asked such a question, Wang De who was next to him also reacted.

There is a handful of cabbage on the table, which seems inconspicuous, but considering that it is the cold winter months, even in the Daxing Palace, there is no chance to eat cabbage, this handful of cabbage is very eye-catching.

"Your Majesty, of course it's still planted."

Qin Xiedao naturally knew why Li Shimin was so surprised.

In fact, when Qin Qiong and Zhang ate fresh cabbage, their reactions were even more intense.

"Impossible, there is almost no snow outside, how can weed cabbage survive?"

"Build a thatched house for cabbage, remove the thatch during the day and cover it at night, and it will naturally grow."

Qin Xiedao looked so calm and clear that Li Shimin wanted to kick him twice.

However, at this time, he felt hot all over.

Wiping the palm of his hand on his forehead, it was actually covered with sweat.

Although eating hot pot will be much warmer than eating ordinary food, but in such a cold day, it is not enough to make people sweat profusely.

Li Shimin couldn't help but thump in his heart, could it be that he was sick?
Qin Xiedao at the side was shocked when he saw Li Shimin's face changed drastically.

What happened?
Didn't I just grow some vegetables, do you need to react so strongly?
Are you disgusted that I didn't bring fresh vegetables to the palace?

Should not be ah.

From what I know about Li Shimin, he is not the kind of emperor who pursues pleasure.

At least he, who just ascended the throne, is not such a person now.

What's the matter?
Did it hurt your stomach?
There is no laxative added, even if it hurts the stomach, it shouldn't react so quickly.

"Your Majesty, would you like to take off a piece of clothing? I see that you are sweating profusely. It should be much better if you take off your coat."

Seeing that Li Shimin didn't speak, Qin Xiedao couldn't help but put forward his own suggestion.

Both himself and Chang He took off their heavy coats now.

But Li Shimin was still wearing a mink jacket, no wonder he was sweating profusely.

"Why is it so warm inside the battlements? Except for the charcoal fire under the hot pot, I didn't notice that you have any charcoal stoves."

With Wang De's help, Li Shimin took off his jacket and looked around suspiciously.
