Emperor of the Tang Dynasty

"Cough! You... what did you say? This is cheap meat? Cough!"

Li Shimin was obviously one of them, so frightened that Zhao Nei Shi hurriedly stepped forward to help Li Shimin to clear his esophagus.

At the same time, Chamberlain Zhao secretly made up his mind that in the future, no matter or topic related to His Royal Highness the King of Chu would appear when His Majesty was eating the food of His Royal Highness King of Chu.

The last time His Majesty ate Li's steamed buns, he almost choked to death because of the news of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, which made the servants in Zhao have to wonder if there was something like Curse 2.8 in it.

"This...is this really cheap meat?"

Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others were surprised to pick up a piece of pork with chopsticks and looked at it repeatedly.

No wonder, including His Majesty, no one in the audience could recognize what kind of animal meat it was. It turned out to be the cheap meat that they would never eat once in their entire lives!

In the Tang Dynasty, apart from the fact that cattle could not be eaten for legal reasons, there was another animal that everyone did not eat, and that was pigs.

The reason is that pork is born with an unbearable stinky smell, which is far bigger and smellier than mutton, so over time everyone thinks that pork is cheap meat and cannot be eaten at all.

Only Li You knows that the reason why pork has such a smell is because the pig has not been castrated!

Chapter 552 He is the most suitable to inherit the throne (Chapter [-])

As long as the pork is not castrated, the taste is indescribable. If it is a castrated pig, it is basically the kind of pork that modern people eat.

Cheap and delicious.

Therefore, the meat pigs eaten by modern people are basically eunuch pigs, which are pig fathers.

"If this is cheap meat, why didn't it even taste fishy just now?"

Li Shimin gradually regained his strength and asked with great doubts.

With the sound of Li Shimin's questioning, many ministers who were very excited just now began to try to clean up the pork that was sprayed out from the table in embarrassment.

Because they also reacted, although this is pork, but it really tastes unambiguous, especially delicious.

"Back to the father, this is because after the pig has been castrated and then bled, the stinky smell in the meat will completely disappear."

Li You replied indifferently, Li Shimin immediately seemed to think of something when he heard the words.

"Then you serve the pork together this time, yes..."

"That's right," Li You replied, "Because everyone doesn't eat pork, 11 pigs breed very fast in the wild, and there are no natural enemies, so pigs are a huge food source that we have ignored! "

"This is the same as locusts. It is a good remedy for the great famine. In addition, pigs are easy to feed. We can start raising pigs from now on, and then we can also increase some food when the great famine comes. reserve."

The ministers and officials listened to each and everyone with a thoughtful look, and they didn't care about eating meat for a while, but they all seriously thought about the feasibility.

After a while, Zhang Liang said with emotion: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu really taught me a lesson today, whether it's locusts or pork, they are things that we avoid like snakes and scorpions on weekdays. Great stuff!"

"Master Zhang is right. To deal with the coming famine, the first strategy we need to adopt is to use everything!"

This time, Li You didn't laugh anymore, but showed a serious look as well.

His eyes looked at the civil and military officials one by one, and they all showed the look of being taught, and listened intently to Li You's next words.

No one thinks this is wrong or inappropriate. Although Li You is still very young for them, firstly, the locusts and pork proposed by Li You are very helpful. They are used to Li You being in a high position.

"The so-called use of everything, in short, is to eat everything that is not usually eaten! In addition to locusts and pork, this king will give another example, that is sorghum. Because of the taste problem, sorghum has always been used as feed, but This is also due to the lack of proper handling!"

Li You's words seemed to have convincing magic power.

"There are still many things like this. As long as we can turn waste into treasure, we can turn the original disasters and garbage into good things, so that the entire Tang Dynasty can tide over the difficulties!"

Seeing Li You's confident expression, all the civil servants and generals at the banquet slowly felt at ease and listened more carefully to what Li You said.

And looking at Li You, who was the focus of the audience, and all the officials listened attentively, Li Shimin even saw a sour taste in his heart.

Even for him, there were few moments in the imperial court when he was so convinced by the officials in the audience. Most of the time, it was Wei Zheng and Xiao Yu and other thorns who always jumped out to quarrel with Li Shimin and start a war.

Just thinking about it made Li Shimin feel suffocated.

However, listening to Li You's encouraging words, as well as the feasible methods full of dry goods that were not just talking about, Li Shimin immediately felt a sense of relief.

"Isn't this just the joy of being able to inherit the father's business...?"

Even Li Shimin himself didn't realize it. At this moment, a thought flashed through his mind - Li You and Li Yangjie, is he the most suitable person among all his sons to inherit his throne and become emperor?

If my Great Tang is handed over to him, there is absolutely no need to worry about its decline, right?

Although this idea was only a surprise, even Li Shimin himself was not aware of it, but it was like a seed that took root and sprouted deeply in his subconscious!

One day, it will grow completely!

……

After the banquet, Li Shimin's mood was obviously much better.

Taking advantage of this soothing moment, Li Shimin got rid of all the previous awards, otherwise it would be impossible to owe it all the time, right?

Among them, Yue Fei, just as Li You expected, got a lot of benefits, and was promoted directly from General Yun Hui to become a champion general, also at the level of the third grade.

It can be said that Yue Fei is the fastest general in history, but this time, no one was dissatisfied or there were rumors 190, because Yue Fei's talent and performance along the way were obvious to all.

Even legendary figures such as Li Jing and Li Daozong admired Yue Fei's leadership talent, and even admitted that he was not under him, so who would dare to oppose it secretly?

In this way, Li You's subordinates have two generals of the third rank who are completely devoted to Li You!

But don't underestimate the position of this third-rank, basically in the class of generals, it is a veritable fourth person.
