The sky was getting dark!
Apart from Princess Changle and Xiao Yu, Yang Xuan's shop never opened again.
There were quite a number of people who came here, but when they heard that a dish actually cost 300 copper coins, they could not help but curse 'black-hearted merchant' and leave angrily.
Yang Xuan wasn't worried. After all, the taste of the mutton bread soup was there.
As long as someone had tasted it, it would be difficult to resist the taste.
The two girls who were disguised as men would probably become his repeat customers. A month's time was already considered as one day.
Yang Xuan took a look. It was almost midnight.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, Tang Chao had to implement a curfew.
Ordinary people were not allowed to stay on the streets!
Yang Xuan naturally couldn't do business anymore. He immediately closed the door of the restaurant and bought himself a bowl of mutton soup. After eating to his heart's content, he said,"
He was prepared to take a shower and rest.
After all, there were no entertainment activities at night in the ancient Tang Dynasty. After a busy day, Yang Xuan was a little tired and needed to sleep to refresh himself.
He had experienced so many things today!
..........
In the Imperial Palace, countless guards were still guarding the place late at night. It was very dignified.
No one was allowed to approach the palace!
The palace was brightly lit.
They did not sleep that early, especially Emperor Taizong.
The reason why Zhenguan was able to be ruled like this was because Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty had worked so hard. He had sworn to be the most wise ruler in history, so he had naturally put in his heart and blood.
Reading memorials late at night was a common occurrence.
Today was no exception. It was already the second watch outside, but Li Shimin was still frowning as he looked at the documents on the table.
The people of the world sighed at the Emperor's good deeds, but they did not know that the Emperor's distress was far greater than theirs.
He heaved a long sigh of relief after he finished marking almost all the memorials in his hand.
It was almost midnight.
Li Shi Min suddenly felt hungry. Next to him was the dinner prepared by the imperial chef. It had been placed in the steamer and there was hot water below to keep it warm.
Li Shiming opened the steamer, and the aroma of food wafted out.
Mutton, noodles, a few side dishes...
Chang 'an belonged to Guanzhong, so they did not have the habit of eating rice.
They mainly served noodles and mutton.
However, Li Shi Min frowned after taking a look. He didn't have any appetite.
Food was the most important thing to the people. Li Shimin was also a human, even if he was not the emperor.
Naturally, there was a need for food. The imperial chefs in the palace could be said to be the best in the world, but they were always eating these things.
No matter how delicious the food was, one would get sick of it after eating too much.
Li Shi Min was no exception!
The hunger in his stomach became more and more obvious, but Li Shi Min picked up his chopsticks, not wanting to touch the food in the steamer.
Rubbing his forehead, Li Shiming didn't know what to do.
During this period of time, the weather was hot.
He didn't have much appetite to begin with. Coupled with the complexity of his affairs, he was very upset. When he was faced with this food again, he couldn't swallow it at all.
Li Shi Min sighed and could only give up.
"Princess Chang Le requests an audience!"
A sharp voice suddenly sounded from outside. It was a eunuch reporting.
Li Shi Min was quite surprised. Why was Princess Chang Le not asleep yet? Why was she looking for him?
"Xuan."
Li Shi Min said.
After a while, the door opened and Princess Chang Le walked in wearing a palace dress.
She had a dignified temperament and exquisite looks.
Her skin was like white jade, and under the illumination of the lamp, it even flickered with a luster.
Every frown and smile was extremely moving.
"Greetings, Imperial Father!"
Princess Changle bowed.
"No need for formalities."
Li Shi Min waved his hand and looked at Princess Chang Le. He couldn't help but smile,"Why do you have the time to look for Imperial Father today?”
Princess Chang Le was his Di daughter. Coupled with her dignified and gentle personality, she had been deeply loved by Li Shi Min since she was young.
"These few days, I heard from the imperial kitchen that Imperial Father doesn't have a good appetite. Her daughter was very worried. Fortunately, she left the palace yesterday and found some food on Chang 'an Street. It should be able to make her father's appetite increase.”Princess Chang Le came to Li Shi Min's side.
Li Shimin nodded.”
The struggle in the palace was very fierce. Even between brothers, they would kill each other. However, Princess Changle valued family ties very much, which was also one of the reasons why Li Shiming liked her.
"Bring the food up." "I'd like to see how delicious the food you value is." Li Shi Min laughed.”
"This..." Princess Chang Le hesitated.
Li Shi Min couldn't help but feel puzzled. After some careful questioning, Princess Chang Le had no choice but to tell him everything that had happened today.
Li Shi Min couldn't help but exclaim," There's actually a restaurant like this. It doesn't report the menu. Each person can only buy one serving per day. Take-out is also not allowed."”
His interest was piqued. As the current emperor, he knew very well that the more capable a person was, the worse their temper would be.
Many of his officials in the court, such as Wei Zheng, were the same.
Wei Zheng even often disagreed with him in court and directly scolded him.
However, he never expected that the owner of the restaurant would have such a capable person.
"In that case…" Li Shi Min waved his hand." I've issued an edict to summon him to the palace tomorrow. I want to see how amazing his craftsmanship is to be praised by you." To be able to process the mutton without any smell, I am still very curious.”
As the emperor of a dynasty, he naturally couldn't personally go to a place just because it was delicious. It was enough to directly summon him into the palace.
Presumably, as a commoner, being summoned by the emperor was a great honor. How could he resist?
Princess Chang Le was delighted to see Li Shi Min like this.
She had originally wanted Yang Xuan to enter the palace to be the imperial chef, but because of her identity as a princess, it was inconvenient for her to express it.
If Li Shi Min directly issued an edict, it would be much easier.
"Then your daughter will take her leave first. I will definitely be able to surprise Imperial Father tomorrow.”Princess Changle said confidently.
Li Shiming smiled and replied, but he didn't take it seriously. As the emperor, he had eaten all kinds of delicacies. It must be because the Princess of Changle occasionally ate something different when she was out of the palace.
