In a blink of an eye, it was noon.

"Your Majesty!"

"The Western Regions delegation arrived at the West Gate (Jinguan Gate) a quarter of an hour ago and is now heading to the Honglu Hall."

"Half of the nearly 1,000 cattle and sheep have been handed over to the Imperial Household Department, and the rest have been sent to the Lijin Manor by a special person, and fifteen accompanying carriages have also been sent to the manor."

The eunuchs waiting for news outside the Jinguan Gate came to the Imperial Study to report.

Li Shimin nodded, "Okay, I already know!" He gently waved his hand to send away the eunuch who reported the news, and looked at Su Chen:

"Su..."

"Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, I want to go back first!" Su Chen stood up and bowed, and suddenly Li Shimin seemed to have something to say but was interrupted by himself, "Your Majesty, what did you want to say just now?"

"You...you...!" Li Shimin's fingers trembled and kept pointing at Su Chen, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while.

"Is the palace short of food for you, or did someone beat or scold you?"

"Hmm?"

"You're leaving after just a while?" Li Shimin immediately stood up, took two steps at a time and stood in front of Su Chen and spit wildly.

"Uh~ Your Majesty, what else do you have to say? I can go back later!"

Su Chen wiped the saliva on his face and took a step back.

Seeing that Li Shimin was like a mad bull, Su Chen didn't dare to offend him, lest he anger the emperor again and spit on him.

Li Shimin shook his head helplessly, thinking that it was not worth getting angry with such a person.

"Well, tell me, when should I summon the envoy from the Western Regions?" Li Shimin sighed, weakly.

"Your Majesty can summon him at any time!" Su Chen blurted out without thinking.

The emperor was angry, glared at him, and said, "Hmm?"

"Well, your majesty, this is what I think. Since we have come to the Tang Dynasty, we should do things according to the rules of the Tang Dynasty. These two days are weekends, and we will summon them next Monday!"

"How can we, the wise and powerful emperor of the Tang Dynasty, have to meet him whenever they come?"

"Your majesty has the final say on the territory of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Your majesty, don't you think so?"

Su Chen thought that the quality of his flattery should be pretty good!

"Hahaha, well said!"

"My territory, I have the final say!" Li Shimin laughed heartily.

Fang Xuanling, Zhangsun Wuji and others all cast sneerful eyes at Su Chen. They looked down on such flatterers the most.

"Your majesty is wise!" The ministers shouted immediately!

Su Chen saw that his flattery was effective, so he asked softly, "Your Majesty... Can I go back now?"

Thinking of the strong yaks in the Western Regions, Su Chen's mind was filled with various ways to eat beef balls.

"For beef balls, choose beef hind legs, which have less fascia and thicker fibers. Beat them by hand until they are pulpy... Tsk~tsk~tsk!"

'Real ingredients, no additives! '

Su Chen couldn't wait a moment, not to mention in the Tang Dynasty, even in his previous life, he had no chance to taste a bite of Western Region yak meat.

"Haha, I want to hear what you are in a hurry to go back for!" Li Shimin waved his sleeves and laughed angrily.

"Gurgle~Gurgle!"

"Gurgle~Gurgle!"

It was noon now, and Su Chen's stomach was growling!

The gurgles in the originally quiet imperial study were particularly harsh.

Li Shimin looked down at Su Chen's abdomen, and he no longer had any temper at this moment.

"Boy, if you rush back now, you will be hungry for half an hour. It's better to have a meal in the palace."

"How?"

Su Chen thought for a while. It's not that fast to slaughter a cow. It's okay to return to the manor later.

He touched his stomach and looked at Li Tai and the other two. He thought that they rarely came back to the palace. It would be a good opportunity to have lunch with their mothers.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Then we can go back after dinner."

Li Shimin suppressed his anger, "Haha!"

Looking at the ministers, he said: "My dear ministers, I have ordered someone to send lunch to Ganlu Hall. Chengfan, you will have lunch with me and the ministers."

"Minister, obey your order!" Li Daozon stood up and accepted the order.

"Minister and others thank your majesty!"

Li Daozon and Fang Xuanling bowed and left the imperial study.

Only Li Shimin, Su Chen and others were left in the study.

"Your Majesty, where are we going to eat?" Li Shimin didn't say anything, Su Chen asked.

"Lizheng Palace!"

Su Chen looked at Li Ke and Li You after hearing this.

"You come too! Recently, your mothers have been eating in Lizheng Palace." Li Shimin took the initiative to allow Li Ke and Li You to eat in Lizheng Palace.

"Thank you, father!"

Unless one's own son is allowed to enter the palace of the emperor's concubines, this rule was not set by Li Shimin, it has existed since ancient times.

"Let's go!" Li Shimin glared at Su Chen again.

Su Chen bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty, please go first!"

"Hmph!"

The emperor snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and put his hands behind his back!

...

Lizheng Palace!

"Li Zhi, tell us what the difference is between a nurse and a maid!"Seeing that it was already noon, Empress Changsun thought that if the emperor didn't come in another quarter of an hour, she would order people to prepare lunch.

Now a large group of people in Lizheng Palace were waiting for lunch.

"Mother, nurses mainly help out in Sun Zhenren's clinic. They receive patients who come to seek medical treatment, get medicine, decoct medicine, and take care of patients after surgery."

Empress Changsun asked after hearing this: "So it's like an apprentice in a clinic."

Princess Changle didn't know how to answer, so she just repeated what Su Chen said to her.

"When you return to the manor, Xia He will arrange six palace maids to accompany you."

Princess Changle nodded, looked at her watch, and asked: "Mother, what are we going to eat for lunch?"

"Lunch..."

"Guanyin maid!"

Empress Changsun smiled when she heard the voice, "The person in charge is here, go ask your father!"

Everyone stood up and prepared to welcome Li Shimin's arrival.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you, all the aunts!" Su Chen was no exception. Her manners were always considerate, but not comprehensive.

Li Shimin felt something was wrong when hearing all the greetings with different calibers!

Li Shimin frowned slightly and said, "Guanyin, I think we should treat this greeting as if we were in the manor in the future."

"Your Majesty's suggestion is very good." Empress Changsun responded perfunctorily, and then looked at Su Chen.

Before Princess Changle returned to the palace, a guard sent a message saying that Su Chen needed a few maids. Empress Changsun thought Su Chen had come to her senses.

She needed maids to serve her, but she didn't expect that she was looking for someone for Sun Simiao.

As soon as Li Shimin entered the palace, the old king brought a group of eunuchs to move a set of eight-immortal tables.

There were many people today, so two tables were set up in Lizheng Hall.

"Your Majesty, we need to wait another quarter of an hour for the meal." The old king asked people to set up the tables and stools and reminded quietly.

Li Shimin nodded.

"Did you hear that? Wouldn't the Marquis be starving if we waited another quarter of an hour?" Li Shimin joked sarcastically.

"No, no!" Su Chen shook his head repeatedly.

Empress Changsun laughed out loud, thinking that the two of them had quarreled again for some unknown reason.

"Guanyin, you don't know how hateful this bastard is. After coming to the palace and saying a few words, he actually clamored to go back to the manor."

"Tell me, when did I give him less food, or is the food in the palace too bad to swallow?"

Li Shimin complained to Empress Changsun indignantly.

"Haha!" Empress Changsun didn't know the cause and effect, so she smiled but didn't say anything.
