Datang: This imperial censor has a million points of recklessness!

Chapter 9 Charcoal Grilled Locusts
"Master Fang, don't worry, I'm going to talk about how to control the locusts soon!"

"The way is to eat!"

"Eat? This locust can still be eaten, isn't it poisonous?" Fang Xuanling said in surprise.

"That's right, these locusts are bugs, how can they be eaten? Just thinking about it makes me feel sick!" Du Ruhui continued.

"Several masters, don't worry, listen to me slowly, this locust is not poisonous, it's just a rumor.

The reason why it is said to be poisonous is because wherever they go, all the food is eaten up. Such a ruined scene makes people feel naturally that these locusts are poisonous.

In fact, not only are these locusts not poisonous, but their bodies are also rich in protein. As long as the cooking method is used correctly, not only the taste, but also the deliciousness, will be harmful to the human body after eating. It will be beneficial! "

"Protein? What is protein?" Fang Xuanling asked suspiciously. This was the first time he had heard of this term.

"Protein is a substance rich in food, which is very much needed by our body.

For example, the eggs and meat that you eat on weekdays, the main substance in them is protein.

This kind of thing can make our body stronger and more powerful! "Cheng Yu explained patiently.

"So, Cheng Yushi, what do you mean, let me invite everyone to eat locusts together, so that everyone can eat up all the locusts?" Li Shimin asked now.

"Exactly, moreover, you are not only calling, but also taking the lead!" said the old god Cheng Yu.

"Absurd! Nonsense! Cheng Yushi, I think this is a stupid trick of yours, and let His Majesty take the lead in eating it. If the locusts are really poisonous, can you take care of your Majesty's dragon body except for any problems?" Changsun Wuji was clamoring again at this moment.

"My lord, if you don't believe me, let's make a bet.

If I prove that the locusts are really edible, you can yell at me three times 'Brother, I was wrong',
And if you can prove that this locust is inedible, then I will do as you please, and take off this official uniform, and never step into the court again.

How about it?You dare? "

【Ding!The host said something to Zhangsun Wuji, points +10! 】

Facing Cheng Yu's aggressiveness, Changsun Wuji's momentum, which was still high just now, was instantly extinguished.

Who would have thought that Cheng Yu would play so big, in front of the emperor and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, Changsun Wuji naturally would not dare to make this bet with him.

"Childish, I don't care about betting with a dude like you!" Changsun Wuji said angrily.

Finally shutting up this annoying mouth, Cheng Yu said to Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, if you are worried, you can ask someone to catch a few locusts and bring them back. I will cook them on the spot and eat them for everyone to see. How about it?"

Li Shimin also became interested when he heard him say this. If this method is really feasible, then this big trouble can be solved!
"Come on, go catch some locusts for me!"

Two forbidden soldiers came in to receive the order, and quickly carried it out.

A moment later, the imperial army came back with a bag full of locusts.

At this moment, a brazier has been set up in the middle of the main hall, which Cheng Yu asked people to prepare when the forbidden soldiers went to catch the locusts.

In addition to the brazier, there are also a few iron sticks.

At this moment, Cheng Yu is going to have one on the spot, charcoal grilled locusts!

Before time travel, Cheng Yu was a gourmet. He likes to study some delicious food on weekdays, and his baker is also first-rate.

At that time, he thought that if he lost his job one day, he could support himself by setting up a stall on the side of the road and selling barbecue.

But he never thought that one day, this ability would be used in the court of Tang Dynasty!
It's really good-for-nothing!
I saw Cheng Yu moving neatly, stringing the locusts, a few strings, on the iron sticks, and then putting them on the brazier.

After a while, five or six strings have been strung together.

Feeling that it was almost done, Cheng Yu stopped skewering and began to concentrate on roasting, turning over from time to time.

Li Shimin and all the ministers were a little surprised when they saw this scene.

This Cheng Yu actually knows how to do it, and he does it in style.

But if you think about it, it's not uncommon for him to be a dude who thinks all day long about eating, drinking, and having fun.

"Hmph, you are indeed a dude. You can't do anything else. How can you eat, drink and have fun? You are a good person!" Changsun Wuji sneered.

"My lord, although I only know how to eat, drink and have fun, I can find out the solution to the locusts. You are serious and upright on weekdays, but you have come up with a way to control the locusts!" Cheng Yu told those who were roasting. The locust turned over and replied unhurriedly.

【Ding!The host said something to Zhangsun Wuji, points +10! 】

"Hmph, don't get complacent too early, it's not sure if you can do it!" Changsun Wuji said disdainfully.

At this moment, the aroma of the roasted locusts gradually spread out.

The people present were very surprised when they smelled this smell.

Unexpectedly, this taste is actually quite fragrant!

At this time, Cheng Yu sprinkled some coarse salt on it, which was brought over from the imperial dining room.

There was no barbecue seasoning in this dynasty, but with salt roasting, the locust meat was already delicious and no other seasonings were needed.

Sometimes, simple is often the most effective.

I saw that after the coarse salt was sprinkled, the taste became even more delicious, and it actually attracted all the greedy people present.

Those who thought that the locusts must not be eaten before are eager to try it now, and want to go forward and taste it.

Li Shimin was originally sitting on the dragon chair, observing all this silently, but now he couldn't sit still anymore, and walked down from above to observe Cheng Yu's roasted locusts at close range.

Thus, above the main hall, such a scene appeared.

A young man squatted in front of the brazier, holding a few strings of locusts and turning them over.

And around him, surrounded by the emperor and a group of ministers.

They stared intently at the young man's constantly flipping fingers, and swallowed from time to time.

Seeing everyone surrounding them, both Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng stood still.

It's not that they can't feel the fragrance of the locust, nor is it that they are not curious.

It's just because both of them have a feud with Cheng Yu, and their self-esteem does not allow them to show too much interest.

As the smell became stronger and stronger, Wei Zheng swallowed.

Said, "I'll go and see if his thing is really so amazing!"

After finishing speaking, he hurried over.

"You are worthless!" Changsun Wuji said angrily.
