I am engaged in construction in Datang

At the farm, Li Shimin's identity was Li Yin's elder brother, a servant.

These ministers were all Li Shimin's colleagues. Although it was ridiculous for a servant to have so many high-ranking colleagues, everyone tacitly disclosed the matter.

Those who have made it to the court are quite clear-headed. If it is not required by their status or profitable, no one would go against Lao Li.

"Sister, do you have any new tricks today?"

Li Shimin came over with Empress Zhangsun and saw Li Yin carrying a bucket of crabs towards the kitchen.

"Yes!"

Li Yin asked mysteriously, "Brother, do you know about crab meat stew?"

"Crab meat stew?" Li Shimin instantly thought of chicken stew and beef stew. "I've eaten this kind of meat stew before."

“The crab pot is different. The crab pot is unique.”

In the past, when people mentioned meat pots, the first thing that came to mind was crab meat pot, and there was no place for other pots.

Unfortunately, there are no potatoes now, so Li Yin can only use taro instead.

I made a big pot today. The pot is nearly one meter wide. I put crabs, chicken feet, crayfish, frogs, chicken wings... all in the pot and stewed them. It smells very fragrant.

The people in the village are particularly generous with the ingredients when cooking. Even before the meat is cooked, the aroma will make you drool.

"Sister, that pot is really big."

Li Shimin took a sip of tea to suppress the growling in his stomach.

“Some food tastes better in a small pot, while other food tastes better in a bigger pot.” Just like the pig-killing dish in Northeast China, the dish will taste half as delicious if the pot is one inch bigger.

Li Yin had eaten there before. It was a genuine pig-killing dish from the countryside, and it was so delicious.

"Brother, the farm is going to cook pig-killing dishes during the Spring Festival this year, so you must bring your sister-in-law over to try it."

"I would have come even if you didn't tell me." Li Shimin said as a matter of course.

Last year, there was a banquet in the palace with delicious delicacies on jade plates, but it lacked the festive atmosphere that made people unable to stop.

Of course, there will be a banquet this year, but he can slip away first and then bring Guanyinbi to the farm for a second banquet.

"Sister, I sent people to search for the disease in Guannei, Hedong, Huaihai, and Guandong, but we found no trace of the disease."

Li Shimin relaxed his mind and said, "Maybe because the flood was well controlled, the disease didn't spread and disappeared!"

"Maybe..." Li Yin nodded.

Because of her influence, many things in history have changed. For example, Gaochang was destroyed ahead of schedule, and some old men who should have died in the past two years are now in good health.

Empress Changsun's breathing problems have also improved a lot, Jinyang is fine, and Changle is not pregnant...

"Brother." Li Yin broke the egg roll, put it into the yogurt, stirred it, and put it into her mouth.

Have two bites before meal to whet your appetite.

"I heard that Japan has sent another envoy to Tang Dynasty, and now they have arrived in Yangzhou."

Li Shimin snorted coldly: "Their envoy Fujiwara said that he wanted to have friendly exchanges with us and humbly ask for advice and learn the culture of our Tang Dynasty."

"Brother, what do you think of the Japanese?"

"The barbarians are beasts, they fear power but not virtue." Li Shimin showed disdain: "And they still have some sense."

He knows how to be humble and knows who is the boss. In his heart, he is more pleasing to the eye than those who are ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.

"It's just that I was good at disguising myself when I was weak."

Li Yin continued, "Only when we become strong will they respect us. Once our dynasty becomes weak, hypocrites like them will probably be the first to get a piece of the pie."

"That's right." Li Shimin continued, "But they don't have that chance."

A small island country, no matter how developed it is, can never compare to the Great Tang Dynasty.

"Brother, everyone in the world thinks so."

"But things are unpredictable. What if they really find an opportunity to massacre millions of my compatriots?"

People at that time still believed in ghosts and gods. Yuan Tiangang, Li Chunfeng and others were all metaphysical. Now there was Li Yin, who always advised everyone to believe in science but had her own metaphysical experience. After being shocked, everyone accepted it politely.

"How much?" Li Shimin's hands trembled, and the tea in the cup almost spilled out: "Ten million?"

His Tang Dynasty has a population of only tens of millions. If the other side kills tens of millions of him, wouldn't that be equivalent to destroying his Tang Dynasty?

This is too exaggerated!

Li Shimin's hands began to tremble, not knowing whether he was frightened or angry. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and for the first time he felt that the Japanese country had no necessity to exist.

Everyone at the table was silent, even Cheng Yaojin didn't dare to say a word.

Only Li Yin and Empress Changsun were content.

"These are just my speculations, don't take them seriously."

After Li Yin finished speaking, the big iron pot containing the crab meat stew was lifted up by two people.

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Empress Chang Sun quickly invited everyone to eat meat and drink wine.

Li Yin said it was just a speculation, but others dared not take it lightly.

Master Li always has a point and never speaks without purpose. It's just that the epidemic didn't come true this time, but weren't his predictions quite accurate at other times?

The military generals have already begun to plan how to ask His Majesty for permission to destroy Japan.

Before, they didn’t dare to say that they had this ability, but now with sufficient guns and cannons, it would only take a few minutes to defeat Japan.

The main meat in the crab meat pot is hairy crab. The red crabs lie at the bottom of the pot. Some of them have been fried without their shells, revealing a handful of white soft meat.

"Crabs can clear away heat and detoxify, nourish the tendons and activate blood circulation, and strengthen the body. Unfortunately, crabs are cold in nature and can easily cause allergies. Pregnant women and those with weak spleen and stomach should not eat them."

After Li Yin finished speaking, she said to Empress Changsun, "Sister-in-law, you can only eat two crabs. More is not good."

In addition to crab meat pot, Li Yin also made meat pot without crabs and shrimps, which is specially for special groups of people to enjoy.

"I know." Empress Changsun moved her bowl and refused Li Shimin's offer to feed her: "Don't serve me any food. I can eat whatever I want."

Then he looked at the loach on Li Shimin's chopsticks with disdain...

……

Imperial College.

Wen Zhen pulled Fang Yiai, Yan Yangting and others and sneaked onto the roof, bending over and walking cautiously in a certain direction.

"Is there really a young lady who wants to enroll?"

Fang Yiai was extremely curious. Ever since that talented girl came out of the test, many people had been asking for qualifications for their daughters to study at the Imperial Academy.

His younger sister was among them.

"Really." Wen Zhen replied, "Doesn't your sister also have a quota?"

"Yes, but she wouldn't say much to me."

A-mei has been close to her mother since she was a child, and she has always ignored her brothers. Only Sister Yu can make A-mei talk more.

"Who told you to never dare to express your love for A-mei?" Yan Yangting retorted to Fang Yiai.

His good friend is introverted and timid by nature. He is the second child in the family and is like a invisible person.

A few people and dogs were lying on the roof timidly. When they turned the corner, they unexpectedly met a few big guys on the opposite side.

"..."Cheng Chuliang and others.

"..."Wen Zhen and others.

"What are you doing here?" Wen Zhen took the initiative.

Cheng Chuliang snorted coldly: "Just do the same thing as you guys!"

"What do you mean by the same as us?"

Wen Zhen and others were furious and tried to save their reputation: "We are here to bask in the sun!"

"So do we!"
