Li Chengqian's residence was relatively deserted because the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace that belonged to him was now occupied by Li Er.
As for the place where the emperor should stay, it was naturally where Li Yuan, who only knew how to make babies all day, lived.
Therefore, Li Chengqian was currently living in a side hall beside the Eastern Palace. Because the treasury was tight, it had been in disrepair for a long time and looked rather dilapidated.
Therefore, Li Chengqian was more curious as to why Li Er would bring the officials to his place.
Logically speaking, if Li Er wanted to see him, he only needed to make an announcement.
He looked at the group of people who pushed the door open and asked,"Why is Imperial Father here?"
He didn't get up, nor did he have any luggage. However, the happy Li Er didn't care about these details. He smiled and waved his hand."It's nothing. I just wanted to come over and take a look. What kind of dish are you eating?”
Li Er stared at the two dishes on the table and asked curiously. Although the smell in the air was very faint, this strange dish had already attracted him.
"It's just stir-frying." Li Chengqian smiled calmly.
This scene also made the minister's eyes light up. He secretly thought that the Crown Prince had great character.
Following that, they also surrounded the two plates of stir-fried vegetables, clicking their tongues in wonder and commenting.
It was as if he had never seen the world.
Of course, this kind of behavior was not surprising. Anyone who saw something new for the first time would behave like this, even modern people.
Li Er was very curious. He sniffed and said,"I have never seen such a dish before. Come, bring a set of chopsticks. I want to taste the taste of this dish.”
The clever Xiao Cui quickly brought over a bowl and chopsticks. Li Er couldn't wait to have a taste, and his eyes lit up.
"Hmm, not bad. The taste is not bad." Li Er's praise made the ministers swallow their saliva.
They also wanted to eat, but they did not dare to overstep their boundaries.
Li Er ate a few mouthfuls before he stopped and asked,"Crown Prince, who cooked this dish? Why have I never eaten it before?”
"This stir-fried dish is a dish that your son suddenly came up with today. Naturally, Imperial Father has never eaten it before."”
"You made it?" Li Er was surprised and then pondered.
The ministers were also deep in thought.
"Your Highness, a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen," Wei Zheng said."Are you the crown prince or…"
Wei Zheng didn't finish his sentence. Li Chengqian naturally knew what he meant and said,"Clothes, food, housing, and transportation are the foundation of the people, why can't this prince touch them? A gentleman is far away from the kitchen? Ha…you are also a well-read person, so you should be clear that this is just an excuse for lazy people to use ancient books.”
" This..." Wei Zheng's expression froze."Although that's the case, the mouths of all the scholars in the world…"
"They can say whatever they want. As the crown prince, why would bengong be afraid of a few scholars?”Li Chengqian snorted coldly, his face filled with disdain.
If it were any other crown prince, he might care about what outsiders thought.
But he was different. He came from the modern era and had a better system.
Here, he didn't care about what others thought. He only lived for his heart.
The scene was silent for a moment. The Crown Prince's domineering side was revealed, and it reminded the officials of Li Chengqian's disdainful posture in the afternoon when he was bathed in blood.
This Crown Prince had changed.
Everyone sighed in their hearts, and Li Er was secretly happy.
He liked this kind of son because he also hated scholars.
Especially for a scholar like Wei Zheng, who always scolded him.
The old fox Cheng Yaojin laughed at this time. He stared at the stir-fried vegetables and said,"Your Majesty, what is the taste of this stir-fried dish? This minister has never eaten it before.”
Cheng Yaojin looked like he was not stingy, but in fact, he was very wise. His rude action was to cover for Li Chengqian and change the topic.
Before Li Er could speak, Li Chengqian took the lead and said with a smile,"Stir-frying is naturally delicious, but bengong's culinary skills are average and I can't make the essence of it. Alright, you are all meritorious officials of the Great Tang, shedding blood for the stability of the country and thinking hard for the stability of the country. Today, I will personally cook and let you have a taste.”
After saying that, he stood up, and the ministers were terrified.
What a joke. The Crown Prince cooking for them was too humiliating.
"Your Highness, you can't do that."
"I appreciate the Crown Prince's intentions, but the Crown Prince is a man of gold. If you cook personally, wouldn't that be a waste of my time?”
"That's right, Your Highness the Crown Prince.”
"This subject is terrified."
Everyone tried to dissuade him, and then they united and glared at Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin pursed his lips, not caring.
"For those who have made contributions to the country, why can't bengong personally cook and comfort them?”Li Chengqian said and left. At the same time, he instructed Little Cui to prepare a large table in the courtyard.
The ministers were all touched.
Such an easy-going crown prince made their hearts warm, and at the same time, they felt endless pride.
Since ancient times, they were probably the only officials who had received such treatment from the Crown Prince.
Not to mention anything else, just this matter alone could be bragged about for generations.
There was no doubt that Li Chengqian had won the hearts of the people as soon as he arrived in the Great Tang.
Li Er laughed loudly. He was extremely satisfied with Li Chengqian today and said,"The Crown Prince is right, why not? Everyone, today you will taste the Crown Prince's cooking with me.”
With such a crown prince and such a wise emperor, why should the Great Tang be worried about not being prosperous?
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Highness.”
