Dragon Cry Temple on Qu Jiang Street was built by Li Er after he took over the throne.
As one of the three major religions in the world, Buddhism had been introduced to China since the Eastern Han Dynasty. It seemed to have a pivotal position after hundreds of years.
Although Li Er was not a Buddhist, he had always been kind to Buddhism because it had contributed to the establishment of the Tang Dynasty.
At this time, the sky had not yet darkened. The front and back of Dragon Cry Temple were already filled with lanterns, but they had not yet lit up.
The lanterns were of different colors, and from afar, she could see the various patterns on them.
Li Chen saw that the front and back of the temple were decorated with lanterns, but those lanterns were all hung high up.
It was very lively to admire the lanterns, watch the lanterns, and read lantern riddles.
Countless adults like Li Chen and Li Er brought their children to the front and back of the temple. Their ears were filled with the cheers of the children.
"What a peaceful world." Li Er sighed.
When Li Chen heard this, he nodded his head. It had to be said that Glory World's Li Er had indeed contributed a lot. To a certain extent, Li Er could still be called a wise ruler for thousands of years.
As they got closer, Yaya, who was on Li Chen's shoulder, looked up at the colorful lights and wanted to reach out for them.
However, she had already stretched out her arms with all her might, but she still could not touch the lantern. She could not help but feel a little unhappy.
"Yaya, these lanterns are lit up at night for tourists to watch. If you see any lanterns for sale later, I'll definitely buy them for you.”Li Chen smiled and explained patiently.
"Alright." Yaya didn't make a fuss and nodded obediently.
There were many tourists in the temple. The six of them took a quick look around. After leaving the temple, Yaya was attracted by the food street beside the temple.
"Daddy, look. There seems to be delicious food there.”Yaya said happily.
Princess Jin Yang and Princess Lan Ling's eyes lit up at the same time.
Usually, they lived in the palace for a long time, so they were used to the delicacies in the imperial kitchen. However, there were rumors that there were exotic delicacies in this article.
On the food street that stretched as far as the eye could see, countless stalls lined up on both sides. Li Chen looked up and said,"
Roasted mutton, Hu cake, cherry cheese, spirit sand, sweet dew porridge
Every time he saw a snack, Li Chen would immediately name it for Yaya. There wasn't a single snack that Yaya didn't want to eat.
Although Li Chen, Li Er, and Zhangsun Wuji were not very interested in these snacks, they had no choice but to follow Yaya and the two princesses as they walked.
Not only did he act as the " walking wallet ", Zhangsun Wuji followed behind and carried countless snacks for Yaya and the two princesses.
There were countless snacks in Chang 'an, some of which were not fresh, while some were delicacies that could not be tasted in later generations.
For example, roasted mutton was just an ordinary mutton skewer in the future. However, the mutton was fresh and had a mellow flavor.
Hubing was the meatball of the future, and it could also be eaten at family dinners.
The thing that Yaya and the two princesses loved the most was the cheese cherries, a delicacy that had been lost in the later generations.
Li Chen, who was proficient in cooking, knew the process of making the cheese cherries with just a light taste.
This was done by dripping yak pulp on the freshly-picked cherries, then pouring cane pulp on them. Finally, this sweet but not greasy delicacy was achieved.
The cooking method was somewhat similar to fruit salad. Li Chen's eyes lit up as he had inspiration for other delicacies.
It took two hours for Yaya and the two princesses to finish their meal.
At this moment, Yaya was still not satisfied. All the cooking methods of these delicacies were clearly grasped by Li Chen.
"Yaya, let's go somewhere else?”Li Chen suggested.
"No, Yaya wants to eat it again.”Yaya gulped down the sweet dew porridge in the bamboo tube.
Upon hearing this, Zhangsun Wuji rubbed his old legs that were as if they were filled with lead, and he was on the verge of tears.
"Daddy can make all the delicacies that Yaya just ate. Moreover, they will only taste better. You don't have to worry about not being able to eat them in the future.”Li Chen said gently.
"Daddy is awesome." As Yaya spoke, she placed her greasy little mouth on Li Chen's neck and gave him a kiss.
Princess Jin Yang and Princess Lan Ling looked at Li Chen at the same time. Their eyes were shining. They had both experienced Li Chen's craftsmanship. If possible, they only wanted to stay in Li Chen's residence in the future.
As for Zhangsun Wuji, he looked at Li Chen gratefully. In the future, if Li Er mentioned anything about a party, he would definitely not agree so easily.
The sky darkened quietly. As the lanterns inside and outside Dragon Cry Temple lit up, it became the most beautiful scenery on the entire Qu Jiang Street.
"Daddy, let's go watch the lanterns?" Yaya whispered.
"Yaya can go if she wants to." Li Chen said without hesitation.
There were many tourists in front of Dragon Cry Temple, and it was lively.
All kinds of colorful lights were like a hundred flowers competing for beauty, each with their own characteristics.
Layers of colorful lights reflected each other. Even from a few miles away, one could see this dazzling scene.
"Daddy, what kind of lamp is this with a horse riding?”
"This is a lantern."
"Daddy, where's the lamp with the rabbit?”
"This is a Jade Rabbit Lamp."
"What about this lamp with the bird?"
"This is a peacock tail lamp."
“......”
Yaya was like a curious baby. Every time she saw an interesting colored light, she would ask questions, and Li Chen would always patiently explain it to her.
By the end, Yaya had forgotten how many kinds of colored lights she had memorized. Unfortunately, these high-hanging colored lights were all for people to admire. Thinking of this, Yaya couldn't help but feel annoyed.
"Look over there." Princess Jin Yang said happily.
Yaya followed Princess Jin Yang's finger and indeed saw a row of small lanterns. In front of the small lanterns were all stalls. She immediately clapped excitedly and said,"Daddy, Yaya wants colored lights."
"I'll buy it immediately." Li Chen couldn't do anything to this little girl. He smiled bitterly and carried her on his back.
