Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 156 The Benefits of Cotton Clothes

"This food is good. After eating such a mouthful in winter, you will feel warm all over. Your Highness, what is this called?"

"It's really the first time to eat like this. It's delicious and warm. I wish I could eat it every day!"

After eating meat and vegetables, the lights in Li Si and Feng Quji's eyes changed, while Ying Zheng was more interested in the pot.

"Father, this is called hot pot. It was invented by the prince himself. Use this to eat meat and vegetables. It tastes so good!"

"You can add mutton, venison, and even various vegetables to this soup, and it will be cooked once you blanch it!"

"Brother Prince said, it's so late in winter, it can drive away the cold and keep warm, and it can even cure diseases!"

Like Ying Liman presenting treasures, she told Ying Zheng everything that Zhao Yi told her before, and Ying Zheng and the two prime ministers nodded in succession, and looked at the hot pot with different eyes.

They have all tried the taste of hot pot just now, but they did not expect such a thing to be so useful.

After Ying Zheng had a full meal, he leaned back in his chair with a face full of contentment, but sighed deeply inexplicably.

Ying Liman heard Ying Zheng's sigh, and asked strangely, "Father, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Li Si and Feng Quji also put down their bowls and chopsticks at this time, seeming to understand why Ying Zheng sighed after eating.

"Girl, I'm afraid you don't know yet. In the eyes of snow disasters everywhere in Daqin, even in Xianyang City, there are victims everywhere!"

Ying Zheng spoke emotionally to Ying Liman, but his eyes kept looking towards Zhao Yi. Seeing Zhao Yi's indifferent appearance, he couldn't help but sighed deeply again: "I suddenly thought of those people who were affected by the disaster, and then look at myself , I feel extremely ashamed!"

Zhao Yi almost threw up when he heard Ying Zheng's words.

[Fuck, can the old man show some face and stop people from eating? 】

[You were the one who ate the most and the fastest just now, I can't even beat you, why didn't you think about it when you ate just now? 】

[What the hell is a scumbag, that's obviously not the case, who is he showing it to! 】

Zhao Yi looked contemptuous, and continued to eat on his own. Eating hot pot is one of the benefits, it is not easy to get full, no matter what his old man said.

Seeing Zhao Yi's appearance, Ying Zheng was bitter, and then continued to sigh. Ying Liman didn't know it, and stepped forward to comfort him: "Father, don't worry too much, there will always be a way."

"Since it's a snow disaster, let's find a way together. It's cold and we should keep out the cold. The court should find a way to keep the people out of the cold."

"I almost forgot, Father, do you know why we are eating hot pot at the Prince's brother's place today? It's because the Prince's Mansion Clothing Factory, run by Meng Jiangnu, has produced the first batch of cotton-padded clothes!"

Ying Zheng's eyes sparkled when he heard the words. He originally wanted to seduce Zhao Yi to tell about the cotton-padded clothes, but he didn't expect his daughter to talk about it, but the effect was the same.

Li Si and Feng Quji also had a strange light in their eyes. They didn't expect the cotton coat His Majesty mentioned, and from what the princess said, it seemed that the prince had already started preparations. Could it be that the prince already had a way to deal with the snow disaster?

Li Si and Feng Quji couldn't help but look at Zhao Yigao a few times, then Li Si cupped his hands at Zhao Yi, "Can the prince take out the cotton coat and let me see it?"

At this moment, Ying Liman suddenly realized that she seemed to have said everything that should be said and should not be said, so she couldn't help but look at Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi was helping his forehead at this time, but since Ying Liman had already said that he was originally used to produce cotton clothes, he was not afraid to let Ying Zheng and others know about it earlier.

"Bubai, go and get two cotton-padded clothes, I want a large size." Zhao Yi shouted out the door, Dongfang Bubai immediately agreed, and quickly fetched two cotton-padded clothes.

"This is the padded jacket!" Zhao Yi waved at Meng Jiangnv, motioning for the little girl to come over and introduce them to Ying Zheng.

At the dinner table just now, Meng Jiangnu already knew the identities of the other two besides Ying Zheng, so she introduced them generously.

"Your Majesty, the two prime ministers, these are the cotton clothes made by the clothing workshop of my Prince's Mansion. They are all used to keep out the cold in winter. After wearing them, this one is definitely better than five ordinary linen clothes for keeping warm." Effect."

"The princess and a few nobles have just tried it on, and the effect is very good. You only need to wear a cotton coat, and you won't feel cold inside or outside the house."

Ying Zheng, Li Si and the others subconsciously looked at Ying Liman and the other girls, and they found that the girls were wearing thick cotton padded clothes, and they were just so focused on eating that they didn't notice.

After hearing Meng Jiangnu's introduction, Li Si and Feng Quji were skeptical, so they asked Zhao Yi tentatively, "His Royal Highness, can Rong Chen try it on and feel the effect?"

"Of course, you can do it, the two prime ministers." As soon as Zhao Yi agreed, Li Si and Feng Quji immediately took a cotton coat, went to the outer room to change into the sackcloth official robe on their bodies, put on the cotton coat, and went straight To the ice and snow outside the hall.

When the two prime ministers first put it on, they just felt that the cotton clothes were very comfortable to wear, which was indeed very different from the commoner and linen clothes they had worn before.

But after they walked in the ice and snow, they soon realized the benefits of cotton clothes.

Wearing the cotton-padded clothes, you can't feel the cold at all, as long as the place wrapped by the cotton-padded clothes is warm, when the two prime ministers walked back into the steaming hot pot room, they felt like a fire was burning all over their bodies .

"Well, Your Majesty, this cotton coat is really extraordinary. I only wear the inner coat and this cotton coat, and I feel warm enough!"

"Yeah, the warming effect of this cotton coat is indeed more than five on top of the linen one. It's so warm!"

"Really, what about in the snow?" Ying Zheng suddenly became interested, and couldn't help but ask the key point.

"It's the same in the snow. I have tried it just now." Li Si and Feng Quji looked excited.

"Really? Let me see!" Ying Zheng was a little unconvinced, and motioned the two prime ministers to go outside to have a closer look.

So the two prime ministers immediately led Ying Zheng to the snow field outside the door. Ying Liman wanted to go out to play in the snow a long time ago, so she took Wang Wanting and Meng Jiangnu out together.

Feng Shuyi fell behind. Looking at Zhao Yi who was still feasting, she couldn't help but ask: "Isn't His Highness going?"

Zhao Yi instinctively wanted to refuse. He didn't like snow, and that thing didn't look clean on the surface. Besides, he was not a child, so there was nothing to play with.

But seeing Feng Shuyi's hopeful eyes, Zhao Yi stood up inexplicably, "Let's go, let's take a look together."

Feng Shuyi smiled, and walked out of the room hand in hand with Zhao Yi. The door of the hall outside was already open, and a cold wind hit her.
