Empress Changsun was also surprised. This smell was very fragrant. She had never smelled it before.

Li Lizhi and Princess Chengyang also came to the stove and sat down next to Empress Changsun.

"Sizi, what is in your arms?" Empress Changsun pointed at the popcorn.

The little princess was excited when talking about popcorn, "It's not too bad~"

The little princess grabbed the popcorn, "Mother~ It's so delicious~"

Princess Chengyang also quickly agreed, "Mother, it's sweet and crispy."

The little princess also nodded hurriedly, "Hmm~"

Empress Changsun took the popcorn from the little princess with a suspicious look on her face. She had never seen such a thing.

But I have to admit that it is indeed very fragrant.

"Mother, I also tasted it. It's very delicious. There is no such thing in the Tang Dynasty." Li Lizhi couldn't figure out where the little princess got it.

Empress Changsun looked at it and saw that there was still a lot in the little princess's arms, so she tasted it.

The expression on her face was wonderful, and she nodded repeatedly in approval. The first feeling was that it was very sweet.

"It's really sweet. What on earth is this?" Empress Changsun knew that the little princess couldn't explain it, so she could only look at Li Lizhi.

Li Lizhi shrugged and said she didn't know.

"Where did you get it?" Empress Changsun asked in a different way.

"I don't know the details. Sizi said it was in her inner palace. Not to mention that Sizi didn't go out, no one else has been to Sizi's inner palace. There is no such thing in the Tang Dynasty."

Empress Changsun was puzzled, "What's going on?"

Empress Changsun looked at Qinglan, hoping to get some valuable information from the little princess's personal maid.

"Your Majesty, I don't know either. The little princess said she wanted to drink water before..."

Qinglan told Empress Changsun everything she had said to Li Lizhi before.

Dare not hide anything.

"Sizi, who gave you these delicious foods?" Empress Changsun asked the little princess while holding her in a doting manner.

"Meaaa~ I got them from my mother~"

What the little princess said was indeed the truth.

How could a child under two years old lie!

"Did you get them yourself? Where did you get them from?" Empress Changsun became more and more confused the more she listened.

"I got them from the mirror~" the little princess said truthfully.

"Mother, I asked before, Sizi was referring to the dressing table, and Qinglan also said that Sizi likes to climb the dressing table." Li Lizhi had no way to explain.

Empress Changsun looked at the little princess in her arms, and she had no way to explain.

The little girl did not lie, but she was too young to explain clearly.

The main reason was that the little princess told the truth, but no one believed it!

The little princess said that she got it from the bronze mirror, and Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi completely ignored this issue.

The little princess didn't care whether others believed it or not, she grabbed the popcorn, "An Niang Ni Qi Ya~"

The little princess fed it directly to Empress Changsun.

Empress Changsun smiled and didn't refuse.

The little princess didn't forget Li Lizhi and Princess Chengyang.

Now Empress Changsun seemed to understand why Li Lizhi brought the two little princesses here.

It was because of the delicious food of unknown origin.

Empress Changsun looked at the innocent little princess and couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Are you sure no one went to find Mingda?" Empress Changsun wanted to figure this out.

Otherwise, she would be worried about the safety of the little princess.

"Replying to the queen, except for Princess Changle and the maid who was responsible for delivering the imperial meal, no one else went." Qinglan was a little scared, fearing that she would be punished for this matter.

She was also afraid that there would be any potential threat to hurt the little princess.

If the little princess was injured, she, the close maid, would lose her life.

Even if it was not caused by Qinglan, it would not be excessive to execute Qinglan for dereliction of duty.

"Mother, I checked before. There are no extra footprints around. It is impossible for someone to go looking for Sizi, unless they flew over."

Li Lizhi did go to check it out in person.

Empress Changsun frowned, "It's really strange, where did it come from?"

Li Lizhi picked up a popcorn, "Until now, I don't know what it is!"

Corn was not available in the Tang Dynasty, so Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi certainly didn't know it.

Empress Changsun also stared at the popcorn, "The Tang Dynasty didn't have this thing, so it shouldn't be from the Tang Dynasty."

Li Lizhi said thoughtfully, "If it's not from the Tang Dynasty, then it may have come from the Western Regions."

The Silk Road to the Western Regions was the most frequent way for the Tang Dynasty to communicate with the outside world in this era. Many things from other places flowed into the Tang Dynasty from the Silk Road.

Similarly, many things from the Tang Dynasty flowed out through the Silk Road.

Empress Changsun shook her head, "It shouldn't be possible... The palace is heavily guarded, how could someone bring such a thing in without anyone knowing?"

At this time, Li ShiminAlso here!

As soon as he entered the Taiji Hall, Li Shimin heard the laughter of the two little princesses.

"The voices of Er Niang and Si Zi!" Thinking of the two cute little girls, Li Shimin smiled.

"Your Majesty, I have seen you!" The maids and eunuchs in the Lizheng Hall saw Li Shimin entering the inner hall and hurriedly saluted.

Li Shimin smiled and walked towards Empress Changsun and the others, "Okay, okay, the girls are all here!"

Li Shimin has many daughters, but these three are special. Princess Changle, Princess Chengyang and Princess Jinyang are direct descendants.

Not quite the same as the others.

With Li Shimin's arrival, Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi also put away their thoughts and hurriedly stood up.

"Grandpa~" The little princess shouted in a baby voice and ran towards Li Shimin with her short legs.

"Hahaha! Si Zi!" Li Shimin bent down and opened his arms, and picked up the little princess who was running over.

"Do you miss Grandpa?" Li Shimin walked towards the stove with the little princess in his arms.

"Yes~" the little princess waved her hands.

Li Shimin smelled the smell of popcorn on the little princess the first time.

This smell is so special.

"Your Majesty!"

"Grandpa!"

Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi also greeted him.

"We are all family, there is no need to be like this, Queen, please sit down." Li Shimin sat next to the stove with the little princess in his arms.

"Grandpa!" Princess Chengyang also threw herself into Li Shimin's arms.

"Second mother, come here, Grandpa hugs you!" Li Shimin held one daughter on each side.

"Okay!" Princess Chengyang also kissed Li Shimin very much.

"By the way, what is this smell? It smells so good. Why haven't I smelled it before?" The smell of popcorn next to the stove was too strong.

To be precise, the smell inside the inner hall of Lizheng Hall was very strong.

Li Lizhi picked up the popcorn bucket on the other side, "Grandpa, this is it."

Li Shimin looked at the popcorn bucket, "What is this?"

Li Shimin held a little princess in one hand, and couldn't free his hands. The little princess stretched out her little hand and grabbed the popcorn, "Grandpa, this is really good~"

"Okay, then I have to try it." Li Shimin really wanted to try it. What's the problem?

After all, the Tang Dynasty didn't have these things.

When he tasted the popcorn, Li Shimin's expression changed.

Shocked, "This tastes really good."
