Royal Gold Magistrate

The woman hurriedly went to the stove and brought a small porcelain basin over, and gave it to Li Yuan to look after.

Li Yuanzhao stretched out his head to look, and there was a lump of paste mixed with vegetable leaves inside. He couldn't see what the ingredients were, but there was a faint rotten smell wafting to his nostrils.

Guo Tianyang leaned over and looked at it in disgust, then backed away.

"what is this?"

"This is porridge made with bran, yellow rice, and wild vegetables, and some salt is added..."

Li Yuanzhao frowned.

He couldn't imagine that this thing was for people to eat... In Taoyuan County, he had seen people squatting on the street to eat.

The food inside is rice, and the vegetables are vegetables, and everything looks normal.

But this thing in front of me doesn't look good, and it doesn't smell good. Is it really edible?

"Is this food edible?"

"Eatable, this is what the women's family eats every day!"

Hearing the woman's affirmative answer, Li Yuanzhao still couldn't believe it.

Curiosity suddenly rose: "Can I taste it?"

Guo Tianyang was terrified, rushed forward and snatched the porcelain basin, crying, "You can't eat it! You can't eat it, my lord!"

"What can I do if my body is damaged after eating this inexplicable thing, the master has to kill me!"

After speaking, he looked back at the woman with a fierce look in his eyes.

The woman was so frightened that she shrank to the corner of the wall.

"Then you eat!"

"what!?"

Guo Tianyang wants to cry but has no tears, why do we want to eat this thing!

Wouldn't it be good to go back to the palace honestly, and insist on rolling around in the garbage dump, the goddamn Fangzhengyi, the goddamn Taoyuan County, the prince went there and was demoted?

Guo Tianyang looked at Li Yuanzhao eagerly while holding the porcelain basin and did not speak.

Seeing his appearance, Li Yuanzhao became even more excited: "Hehe, don't you dare?! Bring it to me!"

After all, he grabbed the porcelain basin directly.

"Go away!"

Guo Tianyang rushed to grab it, but was kicked away by Li Yuanzhao.

Li Yuanzhao looked at the mess in the bowl and suddenly became timid.

This stuff... looks really inedible.

Then he glanced at the woman hiding in the corner and asked again.

"Can you really eat?"

"Eat."

Li Yuanzhao looked at the things in the basin, his throat felt a little tight, and then he was heartbroken, hooked a small piece with his fingertips, and quickly put it into his mouth.

The paste slowly melted in the mouth, and an indescribable taste immediately filled the mouth.

Sour, bitter, rancid, and slightly salty...

"Yuck~"

Unable to hold back this moment, Li Yuanzhao bent over and vomited, choking with tears and snot running down his nose.

The porcelain basin also fell to the ground.

Guo Tianyang secretly wanted to die, so he hurried up to help him, and kept patting Li Yuanzhao's back.

After coughing for a while, Li Yuanzhao felt better.

At this moment, a trace of heartache flashed in the eyes of the woman in the corner, and she tremblingly wanted to step forward to help Li Yuanzhao.

Li Yuanzhao swung his arm vigorously, and the woman staggered directly!

Angrily said: "Bold! How dare you lie to me! You don't know how to live or die!"

Guo Tianyang bared his teeth and yelled out the door: "Come here!"

Five or six people rushed into the house together!

The already cramped room was now even more crowded.

Li Yuanzhao's chest heaved and heaved, obviously he was very angry, and he was actually teased by this troublemaker.

Just as he was about to speak, the man in the room was awakened by the sound and staggered out.

Seeing so many people around the room, I was scared.

Kneeling down with a sick leg, he said in a trembling voice, "Masters! What happened to my family?"

Guo Tianyang pointed at the mess on the ground, and sneered: "Your mother-in-law dared to lie to my young master that this food is edible! You two scumbags!"

The man looked honest and explained in a panic: "It can be eaten! It can be eaten! I will eat it for a few masters to see!"

After finishing speaking, regardless of the woman's tugging, he lay down on the ground and ate his food.

Li Yuanzhao was shocked...this thing is really edible!

And judging from the man's expression, it seems that eating is not difficult.

Seeing his doubts, Guo Tianyang leaned into Li Yuanzhao's ear and whispered: "Your Highness, this common people eat like this, maybe your Highness is not used to it!"

...................

Li Yuanzhao was stunned on the spot, his face turned pale and red, and he felt extremely ashamed for a while.

Then he kicked Guo Tianyang, and said angrily: "You dog! Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Guo Tianyang clutched his butt aggrievedly, what did he say!If you insist on eating, you won't be able to stop it. Our family is really in trouble!

Looking at the man who was still lying on the ground, Li Yuanzhao blushed and said, "Get up! Get up!"

The man staggered to his feet, and Li Yuan looked at the man's face covered with a lot of dust, feeling even more ashamed in his heart.

He whispered: "I vomited in your room and ate your food, I should pay for it."

"Guo Da, give them ten taels of silver!"

The honest man quickly waved his hand: "Master, no need! Those things are worthless! They are worthless!"

"If you give it to you, you must take it!!" Li Yuanzhao said sternly.

Guo Tianyang directly slapped the ten taels of silver in the man's hand.

Seeing that the silver had arrived, Li Yuanzhao left the room without saying a word.

Guo Tianyang came to the street after him.

Seeing the Prince's back look a bit sad, he stepped forward and said softly: "Your Highness, go back to the palace."

"You said, do the little eunuchs in the palace also live in this kind of house and eat this kind of food?"

Guo Tianyang smiled apologetically: "How can it be, Your Highness! The worst place in the palace is a hundred times better than this, and the food is much better than theirs!"

"After all, this is the outer city, no! The inner city, yes! Your Highness can go to the inner city more in the future."

"Then what did you eat before entering the palace?" Li Yuanzhao asked

After he asked such a question, Lao Guo remembered his embarrassing, Jin Jinjian childhood.

Sighing: "Maybe it's not as good as them! It's not bad to have porridge every day, and it's common to eat once every three days and once every two days."

"Your Highness, don't worry, it's only been two years in Ansheng, and some people's lives may be worse now, and the good days are yet to come!!"

Li Yuanzhao nodded, suddenly realized: "No wonder so many people are willing to enter the palace as eunuchs!"

Guo Tianyang: "......."
