My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 151: The potatoes are done!

??ps: (Thanks to the old man, I will call me Empire from now on, Hong Shuangxi’s monthly ticket, thank you for watching 4582’s reward)

??Although Li Yin thinks so, he has nothing to do now. The most difficult thing to destroy in this world is not a diamond, but a belief, especially in this era.

?? "You let the people in Chang'an keep an eye on this Taoist priest and the East Palace, and report to me immediately if there is any trouble." Li Yin thought about it.

??Su More nodded, "Yes, Your Highness!"

??In addition to this, Li Min also planned to write a letter to ask Li Ke to persuade Li Shimin. As for whether Li Shimin would listen or not, it is hard to say. After all, even people like Wei Zheng never advised Li Shimin not to take elixir in history.

Su Mo'er responded but did not leave, but took out a red sachet with gold trim from her bosom, and said shyly: "Your Highness, this is a peace amulet embroidered by Mo'er himself, and please invite the master of Moluo Temple If the light is on, His Highness accepts it if you don’t dislike it.”

"This..." Li Yin's expression was a little unnatural for a moment, looking at the shy and smiling Su Morer, and thinking of her, a young girl with cardamom years, who had suffered so much for herself, she couldn't help feeling a little pity in her heart, and stretched out her hand to pick up the incense. Sac, but fingers inadvertently touched Su More'er's green hand.

??Su Mo'er's face was like a red sunset glow, very beautiful, she said: "Your Highness, Mo'er is leaving." After saying that, she walked away quickly, but her heart was very sweet.

??Li Yin's hand stayed in mid-air, and the slippery feeling still remained between his fingers. His heartbeat actually accelerated a little at that moment, and he shook his head.

??He went back to the South Courtyard thinking wildly. Accompanied by her maid, Cui Yingying was playing around in the small garden when Li Yin walked over. Cui Yingying happened to arrive at the stone bridge, and seeing Li Min approaching, she said: "Your Highness, this pond is too monotonous, and these few golden carps are too shabby."

??Looking at the dozen or so golden carps swimming around in the pond, Li Yan had a flash of inspiration. The ornamental fish in the Tang Dynasty were not as abundant as in modern times. At this time, some goldfish and the like will definitely make these nobles flock to them, because what these people lack is not money, but things to decorate their appearance, especially in this era of rich and powerful politics. It can be seen in Fu's story.

?? "In a few days, I will find some strange fish. Then the pond will be lively." Li Yin said to Cui Yingying.

?? "A strange fish?" Cui Yingying asked doubtfully, "What kind of fish is that?"

??Li Yin smiled mysteriously and said, "You will understand in a few days."

??Cui Yingying nudged Li Yin dissatisfied, "Your Highness is always mysterious, and is it true that Yingying can't meet that Luo Anguo businessman?"

?? Li Yin can let Cui Yingying do other things, but this is the only one that Li Yin will not let anyone know. He said: "No, this Luo Anguo businessman is very jealous that I bring other people there. If you let him know, you will have no underwear, mirrors, snacks and the like in the future. Then don't blame me gone."

?? Cui Yingying nodded obediently when she heard the words. She can't leave these things now, and dare not ask again.

??Seeing her like this, Li Yin smiled secretly in his heart, remembering the news that Cui Zhang and Dou Xiande were at odds, and asked: "I heard that Cui Zhang and Dou Xiande are at odds with each other. What's going on?"

?? "Your Highness, you already know?" Cui Yingying asked in surprise.

??Li Yin nodded, "I don't know anything about this Yizhou?"

"That's right, with Sister Mo'er here, Your Highness knows Yizhou well." Cui Yingying glanced at Li Yin, and then she said: "I also heard about this matter, and I asked my cousin later, but there is no truth to it." What a deep hatred."

?? Cui Yingying said and walked to the small garden in the south courtyard. The garden is not big, but it is exquisite and small. There is a gazebo in the middle of the garden, and there are six stone benches and a stone table in the gazebo.

Cui Yingying pulled Li Min to sit down in front of the stone table, and said: "Speaking of it, it's just a dispute between the wind and the moon. Two years ago, Dou Xiande and his cousin went to Chang'an to take the exam, and the Pingkangfang in Chang'an is where these people came to Beijing to take the exam. A place where scholars must go, and my cousin is no exception."

??Pingkangfang is a famous place for fireworks in Chang'an. I didn't expect these scholars to go there often. At this moment, Li Yin suddenly felt that he was too pure.

Cui Yingying continued, "There is a geisha who is proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is extremely beautiful, and has not yet been combed. Both my cousin and Dou Xiande have taken a fancy to this geisha at the same time, and they want to redeem her. , this bustard is greedy for money, so he asked the two to bid."

?? "Dou Xiande lost in the fight for wealth?" Li Yin interjected.

"That's not true. Although the Cui family is a big family, they are very strict with the children in the family. They don't have much monthly salary, but Dou Xiande, a wealthy family in the south, has a lot of money. It is said that he bids ten thousand taels of gold at once. Cousin There’s no room for bargaining.”

?? "Then what happened in the end?" Judging from the information Li Yin got, it was Dou Xiande who had a big opinion on Cui Zhang, and he must have suffered a disadvantage.

Cui Yingying proudly said: "But that woman fell in love with her cousin, but the bustard is greedy for money and wants to sell her to Dou Xiande, who would have thought that the geisha would give her body to her cousin in secret that night, so that From the point of view of my concubine, Cui's name is much more valuable than money."

?? "No wonder! This Dou Xiande is much better than Cui Zhang regardless of his parallel appearance, so it's no wonder it is so." Li Yin said.

Cui Yingying stretched her body and stood up, "Later, it was a done deal. Although Dou Xiande was extremely ashamed and angry, he couldn't marry a woman who had lost her chastity as a concubine, so he had to give up, and his cousin begged his uncle. Although his uncle was angry, he punished her." After some discussion, he still agreed to let the geisha in."

??After talking about this, Cui Yingying walked to the center of the garden and shouted to Li Yin: "Your Highness, look, the potatoes have grown."

?? Li Yin heard the words and walked over. In front of Cui Yingying were a few low plants with a few white flowers blooming on them. The plants grew very lush, like a ball.

?? Squatting down, Li Yin took a closer look. These are the potatoes in the yard that Li Yin asked his servants to seed. There are only four or five plants. He asked them to plant them here to calculate the harvest time more accurately.

?? Cui Yingying said that the potatoes had grown, but in fact, a few potatoes had already emerged from the ground. Li Yin counted the days and found that the potatoes had come to be harvested, so she pulled them out with all her strength.

?? Cui Yingying said: "Your Highness, why did you pull it out?"

"Potatoes eat the stems below. How can we eat them if we don't pull them out?" When he said that, the entire potato plant was pulled out by Li Yan. There were seven or eight yellow-orange potatoes growing under this plant, and each of them had a potato. An adult's fist is about the size of a fist. Li Yin tried it and it weighed at least four catties.

?? Cui Yingying stared curiously at the potato in Li Yin's hand, just like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, she said: "Your Highness, how do you eat this?"

Li Yin pulled out several other plants, picked the potatoes one by one, and piled them up in front of him. He said: "There are many ways to eat this. You can eat it boiled or fried. It can be eaten fried, how about having braised pork with potatoes tonight?"

??Cui Yingying swallowed her saliva, and nodded like a chicken pecking rice.
