Datang: Inheriting the system legacy at the beginning

The smell was like chicken, but it was different from any chicken they had eaten before.

The aroma is tangy, straight into the heart and lungs, making people feel salivated.

Then they saw the true appearance of the locusts on the plate.

Yellow orange and golden, it looks very delicious.

Cheng Yaojin and many other generals moved their Adam's apples, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a "gulu".

Although Wen Cheng's performance was not as unbearable as that of the generals, they all looked salivating.

The appearances of everyone in the hall fell into Li Yin's eyes, and he secretly laughed in his heart.

Huh, you people who haven't seen it.

How about it, haven't seen it.

Fried big grasshoppers, this was my favorite when I was a child.

After secretly being happy for a moment, Li Yin asked everyone:

"Father, uncles, which one has the courage to try the taste of this locust first?"

"Bring it up, let me taste it first."

Since ancient times, emperors on horseback have always been very forthright, and Li Shimin spoke first without hesitation.

"Your Majesty, no, locusts are edible, but they have not been verified. You are a body of ten thousand chariots, so don't take risks easily."

When Changsun Wuji heard that Li Shimin was going to try first, he immediately stood up and strictly stopped him.

"Yes, Your Majesty! You are the god of Tang Dynasty, you must not take risks lightly."

"Yes, Your Majesty, don't take risks."

……

The ministers also spoke out to persuade Li Shimin, for fear that something unexpected happened to Li Shimin.

Then the Datang country that has just stabilized may be precarious.

Just when Li Shimin was also hesitating, someone who no one could have expected stood up.

Tongueless suppressed his smile, looked at Li Shimin and said:
"Your Majesty, my lords, don't worry! This old slave has already tasted the locusts, and there is no danger."

"Oh, you have tasted Tongueless, how is it?" Li Shimin asked curiously.

As the eunuch who has been with Li Shimin for more than ten years, Tongueless can say that he knows His Majesty as well as anyone else, so he quickly replied:
"Returning to Your Majesty, the locusts made by His Royal Highness King Shu not only do not have any strange smell, but taste delicious."

"Oh..." Li Shimin trusted him the most as an old servant, and Dang even waved at Li Ke, saying:

"Come on, Ke'er brings up the locusts for Father to taste."

Hearing Li Shimin's order, Li Ke was also overjoyed, and hastened to trot to Li Shimin's side with the tray respectfully in hand.

Li Shimin first sized up the locusts in front of him. He had already moved his index finger for this yellow locust exuding a strong fragrance.

But out of self-cultivation, he just gently picked up a golden locust with his thumb and forefinger, and gently put it into his mouth.

Immediately, everyone heard a clicking sound coming from his mouth.

After a while, everyone saw His Majesty Li Er, closed their eyes and began to savor carefully.

At the first moment when the locusts entered his mouth, Li Shimin could clearly feel a scent that was completely different from the usual boiled dishes filling his mouth.

Then after the first bite, the fragrance became more intense, and it was almost entangled between the lips and teeth, and it was hard to dissipate for a long time.

This taste is not comparable to any delicacies he has eaten before, it is so refreshing.

Li Yin knew this would be the result, he couldn't stand Datang's boiled vegetables.

If he didn't want to be too ostentatious before, he would have brought out all the eight major cuisines of later generations.

A small deep-fried big grasshopper is not even a fart in front of the eight major Chinese cuisines.

No matter how good the big fried grasshopper tastes, it's not worth the small one.

Soon Li Shimin opened his eyes, with a hint of unsatisfied disappointment in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, how is it? Does it taste good?" Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin hurriedly asked.

Minister Zhengguo also waited for Li Shimin's answer with curious eyes.

"Well, the taste of this locust is very good. Although it is very different from the dishes we usually eat, it is also a different kind of delicacy."

Li Shimin also thought carefully about the taste just now before replying.

Cheng Yaojin was a well-known gourmet in Tang Dynasty, when he heard that there was a different delicacy, he immediately got up and came to Wu Tong's side.

Without waiting for Tongue to move, he directly lifted the silver cover, grabbed a few locusts from the plate, and stuffed them into his mouth.

Then in the empty hall, there was a sound of "click, click".

After a while, this guy finished eating the locusts in his mouth, and reached out to grab the locusts on the plate again without saying a word.

Just when his hand was about to catch the locust, he was stopped by a person.

This annoyed Chen Yaojin, who had turned into a glutton, very much.

Who the hell is this?

Don't you know that the sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest?

Immediately he turned around, took a look, and said angrily:

"You motherfucker, what do you mean by disturbing my food?"

"Hey~!" Li Ji first took Cheng Yaojin's hand off the plate, and then said with a smile:

"You old killer, you should tell everyone what it tastes like after you eat it."

All the generals also booed.

"That's right, Old Cheng, Your Majesty has told us all about it, so you should tell us too."

"That's right, Zhijie, just talk about it."

……

No matter how thick-skinned Cheng Yaojin was, he was too embarrassed to catch the locusts on the plate at this time, so he simply said:
"I, Lao Cheng, haven't read any books, and I can't say something as elegant as His Majesty, so I can only say this stuff, old smell.

how to say?Yes, crunchy, chicken flavor, hehe. "

After speaking, taking advantage of Li Ji's inattention, he grabbed a large handful of locusts from the plate and stuffed them into his mouth.

Li Yin laughed secretly in his heart, he was so goddamned that he didn't know what to say.

Isn't that what you said very well?

Crunchy, chicken flavored.

It's too damn good to sum it up.

Everyone in the hall knew Cheng Yaojin's temperament as a glutton, otherwise why would his cattle often commit suicide?
Hearing that the old gourmet praised the taste of locusts, they all burst into a rage, and they all got up and surrounded Wu Tongue completely.

Wen Cheng's performance was relatively gentle, he picked up the locusts on the plate one by one, and began to taste them carefully.

The generals are not as gentle as they are, and the one who comes up just grabs a handful, and then hides aside and slowly tastes it.

After a while, there was not a single locust left on the tongueless plate.

Li Chengqian and Li Tai were left alone, two little kids who couldn't squeeze in, and didn't get one of them. They could only watch the uncles savoring or gobbling it up, while staring at the dish on Li Shimin's case. Pan secretly swallowed.

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Li Yin felt amused and amusing in his heart.

So he quietly pulled the two of them aside and said:
"Brother Prince and Fourth Brother, I let the three of them stay a lot in the imperial dining room, and we will eat together later."
