Datang Library

Therefore, the poison of forgetting worry - there is no solution. "

Li Xinzhong nodded, and strode out of the prison, the joy in his heart could no longer be restrained.

I have read a lot of books since I was a child, and I accidentally glimpsed the clues of the grass of forgetfulness from Buddhist scriptures, and met a learned bard from Tianzhu here in Tubo, and only then did I know the legend about this poison.

Now that the poison has finally been successfully produced, the future is promising. It is worthwhile to send people across the vast snow-capped mountains and go deep into the ancient country of Tianzhu to establish diplomacy. They also successfully let them open up a place to plant the grass of forgetting worries. Poison, can be regarded as daring to succeed before the Tang Dynasty destroyed Tubo.

A few days ago, I heard that the Tang Dynasty had already wiped out Goguryeo and other countries. It may be that the next target is Tubo.

He winked at the captain of the personal guard beside him, and that person immediately understood that everyone in the dungeon could no longer survive. From now on, only the king can know the secret of the grass of forgetting worries. All teachers will be executed.

Li Xinzhong is looking forward to it very much. He wants to see the effect of these things after they are put into Datang?I have planted thousands of acres of poisonous weeds in Tianzhu. If an empire comparable to a strong man is destroyed by a simple herb, I am afraid there is nothing more popular than this. The Li family in Longxi can be regarded as revenge. up.

In the city of Yufu, Li Yuanji heard from the military newspaper that the Great Tang had swept the northern Siyi, and the generals in the military department had made a lot of money in battles, and the whole country was praising their achievements.

As a general of the royal family, how can Li Yuanji not be envious, not because he envies the prosperity or wealth of the generals. As the king who stands side by side and the emperor's brother, Li Yuanji has nowhere to be promoted, but as a general, he has made great achievements and left history. Who doesn't envy fame?

I have been in Tibet for several years. The military training plan was originally planned for two years, but now it has been successful, but the Tang Dynasty did not spare a hand to deal with Tubo. But none of the generals dared to snatch what he had already set in his pocket. This was a god-given feat of destroying the country.

The ambitious Li Yuanji immediately wrote a letter, requesting the destruction of Tubo, no need to increase troops, as long as Hong Tianlei and food keep up, his [-] army can complete the project within one month.

But he didn't know that when he was thinking about Tubo's fat, Li Xinzhong of Tubo was also thinking about him, Li Yuanji.

Li Yuanji, king of Qi in the Tang Dynasty, has such a great name. Being a nail in Tubo seems to have infinite benefits, but everything has two sides. You are using this to understand and infiltrate the enemy, and the enemy is also taking this opportunity to understand you and infiltrate you. The city has long been infiltrated by people sent by Li Xinzhong.

And if Li Xinzhong wanted to avenge the Li family in Longxi, he would naturally look for the Li family of the Tang Dynasty, the Hou Junji family who did it, and the Baifan family who planned behind the scenes. Now the younger brother of the Tang emperor Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, is right in front of him. Of course, this good start cannot be let go, so Li Xinzhong sent his confidants, and the first one planned to poison Li Yuanji.

The poison of Wangyou was made into a black ointment, and it was transported into Yubo City without anyone knowing it. There is a big restaurant here, which is said to be a branch of Wangjinglou in the Tang Dynasty. Li Xinzhong spent a lot of money to infiltrate a cook. The poison of Wangyou was used in the restaurant in the first step.

And the one who tested the poison first was Li Yuanji's confidant general, the deputy general who defended the city. Introducing colleagues to help promote this place, everything went so smoothly. As the immediate boss, Li Yuanji was naturally the first to be pulled over by the deputy general.

7 Chapter Ninety

On the third floor of the Wangjing Tower in the city, Li Yuanji was calmly watching a group of his subordinates making noise.

"Old Hu, what are you talking about that makes you so obsessed with it? Our brother is a regular visitor to this Wangjinglou, and we come here quite often. Why don't we know that there is such a rare event?" The lieutenant joked.

Without waiting for the deputy general to explain, someone next to him guessed: "Could it be that Lord Hou has developed new dishes?"

"Ha, Master Hou's new dish? Then we must try it out."

"How is it possible? If Lord Hou has a new dish, our prince must be the first to know about it. Where will it be Lao Hu's turn?" The man took advantage of the opportunity to give Li Yuanji who was next to him a compliment.

Li Yuanji smiled without saying a word, and also looked at the lieutenant general, wanting to ask him what's going on?

Deputy General Hu's name is Hu Zilai. He has followed Li Yuanji for many years and has always been his confidant.

"My lord, don't you know that this time it's not the new dish of Lord Hou, but a chef in Wangjinglou created it himself. The taste is really... not much better than that cooked by Lord Hou himself."

This person originally wanted to say that he surpassed Lantian Hou Baifan's craftsmanship, but after thinking about it, he didn't dare to be disrespectful to Bai Fan, so he changed his words and said no more concessions.

"Really? Hu, you're exaggerating. Who is Lord Hou? That's me, the God of Cooking in the Tang Dynasty. Can a frontier restaurant cook compare to him?" Some people didn't believe it.

However, Li Yuanji waved his hand and said: "Old Hu is recognized as the number one foodie among our group of people, even if the dishes he praises are not as good as Jianzhi, there must be something extraordinary about them, I am looking forward to it.

If it really surpasses Jian Zhi, then Wang Ding will write a book himself, and let Jian Zhi see what is called the sky beyond the sky. It's interesting to think about it. "

Lieutenant General Hu Zilai said: "Haha, Master Hou understands me, and I will not guarantee that I surpass Master Hou, but this man's cooking is really memorable, and I even want to taste his cooking every day. , even my family is almost inseparable, I guarantee that today's dishes will not disappoint you all."

A few people chatted and laughed, the food and drink in the restaurant was ready, and a man dressed as a chef came to serve the food with a few helpers and a few trays.

"Haha, Cao Cao is here, everyone, this is Liu Zicheng, the new star chef of the restaurant I was talking about. Today, I heard that His Royal Highness Qi Wang came to taste his craftsmanship. I admire him so I took the opportunity of serving the dishes to come to see him. "Hu Zilai introduced carelessly.

Although everyone felt that it was a bit strange for the chef of the restaurant to serve the dishes himself, this statement was not surprising.

The chef sent someone to put the food on the table, and then he wanted to kneel down to salute Li Yuanji and express his admiration.

But Li Yuanji came here with his personal guards, and the personal guards never left their duty, so how could they let a stranger come forward?

"Stand back, strangers are not allowed to come within three steps of His Highness." The guard scolded.

Li Yuanji waved his hand and said, "Hey, I'm out of touch now. Since it was recommended by Lao Hu, I'm not a villain. Don't worry."

"Your Highness, we are in an important border area, so we must be cautious. Your Highness's safety is more important than Mount Tai. If someone wants to assassinate..."

"The villain once learned cooking skills from Chef Xu in Chang'an, so he is the descendant of Lord Lantian Hou Ye in terms of seniority, so he is not a villain." The man said boldly.

Li Yuanji smiled and said: "Haha, no wonder the skills are so extraordinary, so there are famous masters inheriting them.

Forget it, you don't need to worry too much, how can Wangjinglou recruit people without distinguishing between good and evil?This king is also a general, so I don't know if the assassin has murderous intent?Don't disturb our pleasure of eating. "

"Well, that's fine, but when your Highness eats out, food safety inspections are mandatory. Please don't obstruct your subordinates anymore." The man insisted on going forward for a drug test.

Naturally, Li Yuanji would not stop him. After all, this guard is a true confidant, the person he trusts the most. For the general to be outside, these careful procedures are still required.

Soon after the chef's visit, he left with all the chefs happily, and there was no surprise in the drug test, and the generals began to eat heartily under the sway of Deputy General Hu.

In fact, this Deputy General Hu is not a spy, but a fool who is addicted to food and drink. As long as there is delicious food, he can't help but trust others without buying it. Chef Liu Zicheng is from the Tubo king Li Xinzhong The undercover agent who came here made a long-term plan after taking on the task.

First, he conquered Hu Zilai with delicious food, without revealing his purpose, but naturally waited for the opportunity to lure Li Yuanji to him, and then gradually borrowed the relationship between colleagues in the restaurant to add food to his colleagues, so that colleagues and even the restaurant executives were taken away by his food. In this way, it is considered to be invisibly controlling the Wangjing Tower of Yuhe City.

Then there was an opportunity to launch a plan against Li Yuanji. The reason why it was only open to Li Yuanji and not the people of the city was to capture the thief first and capture the king first. Otherwise, if something happened to the people in the city, Li Yuanji would definitely be alerted.

"Huh? That's right. This sliced ​​yak meat tastes very different from Tang's beef. It seems that this chef developed a new dish on this plateau. This person is a talent.

Look back and see if you can recruit him to the palace. "

The last sentence was spoken to the guard behind him.

"Follow your Highness, but after all, he is an unknown person, and you need to find out the origin to make sure it is safe."

"I can't, Your Highness, I, Lao Hu, can't do without the chef's skills now, and I didn't dare to rob him because the people in the city also want delicious food, otherwise I would have taken him home and become a cook.

You can't win love with a knife, otherwise what will we do when we eat in the future?You can't just go to your city lord's mansion. "

Well, the other generals have already been conquered by the delicious food at this time, and they all joined in, so the matter of recruiting a cook will be over.

Undoubtedly, Liu Zicheng's plan succeeded, or Li Xinzhong's plan succeeded, because he was the big boss behind the scenes.

The leaders of this group of defenders of Yuhe City remembered all the food here for a meal, and the more they thought about it when they went home, the more they ate it every day. This is the poison of forgetfulness added to the food. , and this thing actually has a well-known name in the late Qing Dynasty, that is, poppy. At this time, people sent by Li Xinzhong have developed a finished edible poppy powder, which cannot be tested with silver needles.

(Remarks: opium extracts can be made into opium paste (title of the book 'opium'). Opium is generally smoked, and opium paste is poisonous if eaten with alcohol, but opium paste is also edible, and it will also cause harm if eaten directly. Addiction, although the onset is slow and not violent, but the drug addiction lasts longer.

Here we use the black technology of poison making in the Tang Dynasty to make edible powder, the kind that will not be poisoned when paired with wine, hereby explain. )

As Li Yuanji and others were tricked into the net step by step, Wangjinglou finally began to reach out to the people in the city. The richest people in the city are the soldiers who defended the city. It can be said that the treatment is extremely generous, just to pave the way for the future training of Tubo.
