Chapter 176 The Mischievous Princess

Chapter 176 The Mischievous Princess

The next morning, Xiao Chuan skillfully combed his long hair into a ponytail, tied it with a blue ribbon, smoothed the hair curtain with his hands, and put on a royal blue gown with a silk sash around his waist, looking neat and tidy .

Dugu Cheng came to visit, straight to the point: "Brother, why don't you take someone to make money."

Xiao Chuan said: "Okay, you help me carry a bag of peppers."

Dugu Cheng was also refreshing, carrying a bag of peppers on his back, and followed Xiao Chuan who was walking with his hands behind his back.

There were too many chili peppers, Xiao Chuan no longer used chili powder to fool people, but directly poured half a catty of chili peppers into the soup.

"Ah Choo! Cousin, why is it so spicy?"

Yang Guang and Li Yuan pushed the door into the store and couldn't help sneezing.

"Ah Chen, I improved the recipe of Malatang, and I used dried chilies in the future, so it will naturally be more spicy."

"Oh, I'll try."

"Cousin, don't worry, I'll make spicy hot pot for you today, it's several times more delicious than Malatang."

"What is spicy hot pot? I want to eat it too."

A crisp voice came from behind Li Yuan, and then a thirteen or fourteen-year-old loli showed her head.

Xiao Chuan said: "Cousin, who is this?"

Li Yuandao: "Oh, let me introduce to you, this is my cousin Li Yu, the granddaughter of Shangzhu Kingdom, Bingzhou Governor, Shen Guogong Grand Master Li Mu, General Hussars of Xiangcheng Mansion, and the apple of the eye of Anwu County Duke Li Hun. , In order to congratulate His Majesty on his enthronement, I followed Taishi Li to Beijing and stayed for a few days, sister, this is Xiao Chuan."

Yang Guangdao: "Li Taishi is a minister that my father relies on very much. When my father was the prime minister of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yu Chijiong rebelled and sent someone to recruit Li Mu. Li Mu detained his envoy and handed over the letter contacting the rebellion. Li Shirong, the son of Li Mu, Thinking that his father had a powerful army, he privately persuaded Li Mu to rebel. Li Mu didn't express his opinion, and his father sent Liu Qiu and Li Yu's father Li Hun to enlighten him. Said: "The virtues of the Zhou Dynasty have declined, and both foolish and wise people can see this. If the destiny is like this, how can I disobey it?" I sent my tenth son, Li Hun, to Beijing, brought an iron to my father, and said to my father: "I hope that the king will take over the authority, so as to appease and calm the world." Father was very happy, and his hanging heart was finally let go. Later, Li Mu used the destiny as evidence to secretly submit a letter to persuade Father to ascend the throne."

"After the father accepted the abdication, he was very moved by Li Mu's support. He once issued an edict saying: "The father is not only old-fashioned, but also the father's party. He respects and benefits the decree, and there is nothing wrong with it. Therefore, on the 100th day of this month, he respectfully received the mandate of heaven." In February of this year, when Li Mu came to see him, his father stepped down from the steps of the court to pay his respects, conferred him the title of Grand Master, allowed him not to report his name when he paid his respects, and gave him the seal of [-] households in Cheng'an County. Among the descendants of Li Mu, even those who are still in their infancy, all worship Yitong. In his family, there are more than [-] descendants who hold elephant wats and serve as officials. Li Mu's noble prosperity is unmatched now. My mother loves sister Li Yu very much, and named her princess."

Xiao Chuan looked at the pretty girl in front of him and sighed in his heart: "Another thick leg. She is the princess at such a young age."

On the mouth, he hurriedly said: "Hello, little Princess."

Li Yu smiled playfully and said, "Hee hee, I know you, Count Turtle. I saw you at the Queen's place yesterday. You must have donated the chili pepper."

With black lines on his hair, Xiao Chuan said, "I am Earl Wannian, not Earl Turtle."

Li Yu laughed so that the flowers trembled, and said: "The thousand-year king and the 8-year tortoise, what are you not the Earl of the tortoise?"

Xiao Chuan was momentarily at a loss for words, wishing he could grab a handful of peppers and stuff Li Yu's little cherry mouth.

Yang Guang smiled and said: "Sister Yu is right, let's call Dugu Chuan Earl Turtle from now on."

Xiao Chuan was speechless, and said weakly: "Ah Chen, you also pick on me?"

Li Yuan said embarrassedly: "Sister, don't mess around, otherwise I won't bring you here next time."

Then he said to Xiao Chuan: "Cousin Chuan, don't blame me, my sister has been spoiled and spoiled since she was a child, and that's her temperament."

Naturally, Xiao Chuan couldn't be as knowledgeable as a little girl, let alone a beautiful little princess, so he couldn't be offended, so he said, "Cousin, it doesn't matter, Earl Turtle is also very good, and he has a long life."

Li Yudao: "Mr. Turtle, it seems that you are very sensible, so I won't tease you."

Li Yuan said: "Cousin Chuan, Yumei heard that Malatang is delicious, so I want to come and try it, so I brought her here."

Xiao Chuan said: "It's easy to say, I'm about to make spicy hot pot for Ah Chen, and we just happen to eat it together."

"Brother Cheng, you go upstairs too."

Several people went up to the second floor, Xiao Chuan introduced: "Ah Cheng, Cousin Yuan, Little Princess, this is my cousin Dugu Cheng, brother Cheng, come and greet me."

Dugu Cheng hastily bowed and saluted, "Dugu Cheng pays homage to His Royal Highness Prince Jin, Tang Guogong, the little princess."

Yang Guang patted Dugu Cheng on the shoulder and said, "Dugu Cheng, we have met a few times before, and we are all real relatives, so you don't have to be polite."

Li Yuan said: "Yes, we are all cousins, broken bones and connected tendons."

Li Yudao: "Dugu Cheng, since you are Xiao Chuan's younger brother, you should be called Brother Gui."

There was a wry smile on Dugu Cheng's face, and he said: "What the little princess said is, as long as you don't call me Wang Bage."

Li Yu patted Dugu Cheng on the shoulder, and said, "Dugu Cheng, you are still sensible, unlike your elder brother, who is the first one."

Everyone sat around the table, Xiao Chuan put the Jiugongge hot pot on the charcoal fire, and said: "This is the Jiugongge hot pot, and the soups in the nine small grids are different, some are spicy soup, some are mushroom soup, some are big bone soup, and some are soup. Clear water soup, whichever taste you like, you can boil it in that grid, seasonings include sesame paste, sesame oil, minced green onion, minced ginger, minced garlic, etc., you can adjust it yourself.”

Yang Guangdao: "What are we doing?"

Xiao Chuan took out thinly sliced ​​mutton, yellow throat, louver, hairy tripe, and a few plates of vegetables.

Xiao Chuan said: "Ah Chen, would you like to drink some fermented glutinous rice?"

Yang Guangdao: "Xiao Wang should replace the bar with tea, so as not to be known by the emperor."

Fermented glutinous rice is rice wine with a relatively low alcohol content. It was drunk by rich and noble people, and the ancients did not have enough food, so many emperors did not make much wine.

Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty advocated frugality and didn't like drinking alcohol, so Yang Guang naturally didn't dare to touch his bad luck.

Xiao Chuan first poured tea for Yang Guang, then poured fermented glutinous rice for Li Yuan and himself, but Li Yu asked for wine, so he also poured a small cup of fermented glutinous rice.

Dugu Cheng is a good boy, so he naturally drinks tea with Yang Guang.

The hot pot soup was boiling, and after a few people clinked glasses, they began to boil.

The hot and spicy hot pot, fermented glutinous glutinous rice with a suitable concentration, and the bitter and slightly fragrant Lei Cha, everyone can only describe it with two words, "comfortable!"

Li Yu didn't know if it was grilled over charcoal fire or if it was spicy. His little face was flushed, sweat dripped from his forehead, and he drank the fermented glutinous rice in his cup. He patted Xiao Chuan on the shoulder beside him and said, "Mr. Turtle, it's so delicious! Spicy hot pot I want to buy a share of the store, and I want to eat hot pot every day."

Before Xiao Chuan could speak, Yang Guang said, "Li Yu, do you have money?"
