After hearing Li Shimin's comments, the generals couldn't wait to start eating.

For a moment, chopsticks were flying on the table, and everyone was reaching for the plate of braised pork.

Soon, the four of them devoured the whole plate of braised pork.

"Is this really pork? How can it be so delicious?"

Li Ji was full of disbelief. He stared at the empty plate and felt that such delicious meat should not be pork. The taste had completely overturned his perception of pork.

What made Li Shimin most curious was the thing called hot pot.

According to the waiter, the red soup base is called spicy hot pot.

Li Shimin looked at the boiling soup in the hot pot, his eyes full of curiosity.

He picked up a piece of mutton roll as thin as a cicada's wing and, imitating the people around him, put the mutton into the boiling pot.

He counted to ten silently in his mind, then quickly took out the mutton roll, dipped it lightly in the seasoning bowl next to it, and put it into his mouth.

In an instant, the spicy and fragrant taste was like a surging tide, attacking his taste buds that had never been stimulated like this before.

The spicy taste was like a ball of fire burning in his mouth, and the numbness was like countless little ants dancing on the tip of his tongue.

He couldn't help but open his mouth and breathe out loudly, trying to relieve the burning feeling.

He just picked up the wine glass to quench his thirst, but suddenly remembered that this was strong liquor and drinking it would probably make him feel even worse.

In desperation, he could only eat the vegetables fried with lard in big mouthfuls to relieve the spicy taste in his mouth.

Seeing Li Shimin eating hot pot like this, the other three looked at each other with surprise and curiosity in their eyes.

They were all waiting for Li Shimin to comment on the taste of the hot pot.

Li Shimin finally recovered and said, "It's delicious. This is the feeling. It's hard to describe!"

After saying that, he asked someone to bring up a pot of cold water. He picked up the cup and drank a large glass of cold water in gulps. Only then did he feel better.

He looked at the still boiling hot pot, and the desire to eat it grew wildly in his heart like weeds.

Yuchi Jingde was also eating hot pot. For some reason, he had a strong resistance to spicy food.

He was sweating while eating, and sweat was running down his cheeks like beads that had broken off the string, but he still kept eating the spicy hot pot and pickled fish.

The spicy hot pot base and the sour pickled fish seemed to him the most delicious food in the world. He enjoyed the strong taste so much that every bite seemed to dance on the tip of his tongue.

A few of them enjoyed this rare time with delicious food and fine wine.

After a while, they were full and satisfied, and everyone wiped the sweat from their foreheads with a towel.

They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: "This life is worth it!" This meal allowed them to experience a delicious taste they had never experienced before, like a carnival for their taste buds.

Li Shimin stood up and walked to the girl with a generous and open attitude to pay the bill.

Not only did he pay for the meal, he also said he wanted to buy some more Xiaobai Gan and take it to Chang'an to drink.

But he didn't expect to be rejected directly by the girl.

Li Shimin asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Why can't I buy some dried white beans to take out?"

In his opinion, customers are willing to buy and the store can make a profit. It is a win-win situation and there is no reason not to sell.

The girl said helplessly to Li Shimin: "Sir, it's not that we don't want to sell it to you, but even if we sell it to you, you can't take these things out of Xianyang City!"

Her eyes were full of seriousness. "If you secretly take things out of Xianyang City, it's illegal!"

Li Shimin widened his eyes. He had never heard of such a law in the Tang Dynasty.

He frowned and asked, "Why have I never heard of such a law in the Tang Dynasty?"
