An hour later.
The huge round table was already in a mess, and there were basically only empty plates left.
Only a piece of tripe was left on one plate.
Li Shiming and his daughter were staring at each other, both of them wanted to eat the last piece of delicious food.
Lin Yuan looked at the two of them and stared at each other. He mercilessly picked up the tripe and put it into the bottom of the red oil pot. He dipped it in the prepared sesame and garlic sauce.
He swallowed it in one gulp!
Awesome!
Lin Yuan squinted his eyes in enjoyment.
Li Shiming and his daughter suffered.
Li Shimin was still not satisfied, but he wanted to give it a try when he returned to the palace!
"Kid, what exactly is this tripe of yours?" he asked.”
"Tripe is beef tripe," Lin Yuan replied.”
"Ah?" Li Shi Min was shocked and suddenly thought of the meat roll.
"That meat roll, could it be beef roll?”
Lin Yuan nodded again.
Li Shi Min was a little angry.
Princess Chang Le also tugged on Lin Yuan's sleeve and said,""Lin Yuan, you'll go to jail for eating cows!”
" Who dares to capture me?" Lin Yuan smiled disdainfully. A high-ranking official like you? Besides, this wild ox is acting wildly in front of my village. Naturally, I have to kill and eat it.”
Hearing this, Li Shi Min's expression became better.
Lin Yuan wasn't lying. Even though the farming facilities were perfect now, the cattle were still the main force. These cattle were indeed wild cows in the mountains.
"I'll believe you for now. I'm full. I want to talk to my daughter alone.”Li Shi Min put on airs.
Lin Yuan didn't refuse and left.
Li Shimin watched Lin Yuan leave and carefully looked around to make sure that no one was eavesdropping.
He walked up to Princess Chang Le and whispered softly.
"Lizhi, are you okay? Did this kid bully you?”
Although Princess Chang Le was angry in her heart, her father's concern still made her cry.
Seeing this, Li Shi Min's heart tightened and he hurriedly said,"Tell me what Lin Yuan did to you. I'll get Cheng Yaojin to teach him a lesson when I get back!”
Princess Chang Le's expression was complicated as she shook her head again.
Last night, Lin Yuan was a little reckless. He was bullied, but he didn't seem to reject it. In other aspects, Lin Yuan was indeed a good husband.
Li Shi Min looked at his daughter and a thought came to his mind.
"You two are already husband and wife?" he asked in disbelief.”
Princess Chang Le nodded, her blushing face buried under her collarbone.
Sigh!
Lin Yuan was really lucky!
Li Shiming shook his head and sighed. Looking at his daughter's expression, he knew that she had already acknowledged Lin Yuan as her husband.
Even though a grown woman couldn't be kept, Li Shimin didn't expect Lin Yuan to act so quickly!
Princess Chang Le looked at Li Shimin's expression and was worried that her father would vent his anger on Lin Yuan.
She said," Father, Lin Yuan's place is actually quite good. Lin Yuan treats me very well, and the people here respect me. I feel happier than when I was in Chang 'an City!”
Li Shimin felt a little jealous when he saw his daughter speaking up for Lin Yuan.
Especially when he talked about Chang 'an Fortress, which he was proud of.
He might not be able to do it in terms of farming, but he was not convinced in other areas.
"How can my Chang 'an be inferior to this mountain stronghold?" Li Shimin said unwillingly.”
"I can't compare to him in the first place!" Princess Changle said.”
"Then tell me!" Li Shimin was a little angry.
Princess Chang Le smiled and told her father everything that Qing Zhu had said in the morning.
"The factories here have everything you need. They produce cloth, paper, iron, and wood. Coupled with advanced farming, they can be self-sufficient in food, clothing, housing, transportation, and education!”
"There's even a new sugar factory now. The candies made inside are even better than those in the palace! Moreover, a salt factory had been built recently. In the future, there would be oil factories and other factories. Soon, the facilities would be even more complete than Chang 'an's!”
" Other than these things, I like the faces of the people the most. In Chang 'an, the people look at me with awe and fear, but the people here respect me from the bottom of their hearts. In the morning, a child gave me candy!”
Princess Chang Le said happily.
Li Shi Min was shocked.
The factory!
After hearing this new term from his daughter, he finally understood why the people here could live and work in peace and contentment.
At first, he thought that the village was just planting food and trading for clothes and other things.
Only now did he know that Lin Yuan had already turned the village into a 'self-sufficient utopia.'
This was something he had never expected. It seemed that other than farming, there were still many ways to govern the world to learn!
As the emperor, he naturally wanted to gain the love and respect of the people, not the fear and reverence of the people.
Thus, Li Shi Min sighed and said,""Lizhi, since that's the case, Imperial Father won't say much. You can be Lin Yuan's wife in peace!”
Princess Chang Le was stunned. She stared at her father with her mouth agape.
"Aren't you going to take me back to the palace?"
Li Shiming shook his head. For the sake of the Tang Empire, you should give up a little!
However, Yu Shang said," This place is better than Chang 'an. There are even better delicacies here than in the palace. You can also avoid the infighting in the palace. I'm very relieved!"”
Princess Chang Le nodded her head blankly. Her father's words seemed to make sense.
"Since that's the case, then let's do it this way. I have to talk to Lin Yuan and ask him to let me go. Otherwise, Cheng Yaojin and the others will lead the army to attack this stronghold!”Li Shi Min pondered.
"Yes, Imperial Father, go quickly. Otherwise, Lin Yuan will be in trouble. He definitely won't be able to defeat Cheng Yaojin!”Princess Chang Le was very worried.
Li Shimin was speechless. You don't know how Lin Yuan looks like when he's hugging a tree and hitting someone!
However, he also left the courtyard in a hurry.
