Happy Little Scholar

Li Yi is keen on making soup recently. This job is not simply about boiling a bunch of ingredients in water. The proportion of various ingredients, the amount of water, the heat, and the time can change any parameter, and the taste may change qualitatively. .

He is already very experienced in this regard.

Of course, the amount of love that goes into making the soup cannot be described in terms of quantity.

Ruyi's soup nourishes and prevents miscarriage, and Xiaohuan's soup is good for the growth of adolescent girls. Although Miss Liu Er doesn't need to grow any more, there is no harm in drinking more.

The one who needs to grow up the most is actually the eldest princess, even more than Xiao Huan, so when Li Yi entered the palace, he brought her a full cup.

Eating egg fried rice is best paired with delicious, nourishing and body-building soup. Egg fried rice with wine is not what it sounds like.

"How is it? This soup tastes good, doesn't it?"

The egg fried rice is a bit greasy, but this soup can relieve the greasiness, and more importantly, it can also help you gain weight.

Li Mingzhu nodded. Soup with rice is indeed better, but after experiencing something, when she mentioned soup, she would think of something that would make people blush. She looked at Li Yi with some vigilance and asked: "What does this soup...do?"

"It's always bad to drink to relieve tiredness." Li Yi looked at her and said indifferently: "Don't worry, it's not poisonous."

With that said, he took a bowl for himself and drank by himself.

The suspicion in Li Mingzhu's heart disappeared, but she felt a little guilty. She really shouldn't have doubted him just now.

Li Yi took out a piece of paper from his arms and said, "This is for you."

Li Mingzhu took it, looked up, and found that what was written on it was exactly what he told himself yesterday, but the order was clearer. As for the more detailed and specific things, he had deliberately omitted it.

"It's enough to hand it over like this." Li Yi was worried that she would tell all the details on her own initiative, and also reminded her.

Li Mingzhu didn't ask any more questions. She knew that he had his intention to do this. This matter was beneficial to the country and the people, and he would never harm herself.

Li Mingzhu looked at him and asked, "Where did the money come from?"

"It will be kept secret for now."

Li Yi didn't tell her directly, not because he didn't believe her, but because he believed in her too much.

This silly girl is very good at martial arts, but her mind is actually very simple and she can't hide things in her heart.

If you really solve all the problems and then tell the truth, what else will they have to do?

"I'm leaving. I'll come back to you in a few days."

Li Yi waved his hand and wandered out of Chenlu Palace.

"Marquis Li is very kind to His Highness." The figure who had been standing behind Li Mingzhu suddenly said when he saw Li Yi walking out.

Her intention is not limited to bringing her favorite meals for Her Royal Highness every time she comes. In fact, she does much more for Her Royal Highness.

He made a princess, a woman, step by step, a being that the men in the court could not underestimate. No one dared to say more about why the eldest princess of Jingguo was not married yet, and no one questioned why she could become a The dean of the women's college, she led a group of noble ladies in Kyoto to do many things that even men could not do, and also let those people know what it means to be a woman and not to be inferior to a man.

Li Mingzhu did not respond directly. She glanced outside the hall, finished the egg fried rice, drank another bowl of soup, then put down the jade spoon and said: "There is still some soup, I can't drink it anymore. Drink it, mama, don't waste it." ”

The old woman smiled, knowing that she was not willing to waste Marquis Li's efforts. She took a bowl and poured out the last bowl of soup in the soup cup. After taking a sip, she smacked her lips, and the expression on her face was suddenly stunned. .

Before the princess was born, she had always been with the Empress. She had served her closely for more than ten years. Watching the Empress transform from a little girl to a woman, she naturally knew what the familiar soup had. Such effect.

Li Mingzhu looked at her with some confusion and asked, "What's wrong?"

The old woman put down the bowl, gave her a meaningful look, and said: "This soup... will only be useful if Your Highness drinks it, so I'd better forget it..."

…

…

It was late at night, and the Qinzheng Hall was silent. Occasionally, the sound of pages turning could be heard.

Chang De walked out of the shadows, coughed slightly, and reminded: "Your Majesty, it's time to rest."

"Changde, tell me, am I really old?" Emperor Jing put down a memorial. The expression on his face could not tell whether he was happy or lonely.

"Your Majesty is in the prime of life, why do you say this?" Chang De's voice finally contained some emotion.

"If the pearl were a man, why should I be like this today?" Emperor Jing seemed to be thinking to himself. He picked up the memorial and read it carefully. Every piece of it was clearly organized and extremely thorough. He couldn't help but murmur. He said: "Did Mingzhu come up with all this alone? That boy is right. I am indeed old. The future of Jingguo still lies with young people like them."

Changde had probably guessed what he meant at this moment. When it came to composing poems and lyrics, Your Majesty was not as good as County Uncle Li, and when it came to martial arts skills, Your Majesty was not as good as the eldest princess. However, running the country has always been something Your Majesty is good at. When one day, he found out that... When you are not as good as others in these matters, it is not strange to sigh like just now.

Changde thought for a while and said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is also worried about Your Majesty, and I am afraid that County Uncle Li will not contribute less."

"It's not the first time that he has given all the credit to Mingzhu." A trace of anger appeared on Emperor Jing's face, and he said, "If this stinky boy had taken out these things earlier, I wouldn't have had such a headache for so long..."

As Emperor Jing spoke, he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, let Mingzhu do this, and I will be happy to have some free time."

He was very confident in Mingzhu's ability. Since she proposed this matter, he would let her do it. In this way, he would be much more relaxed.

The most important issue of funds was that it was only said that no treasury funding was needed. As for where the huge amount of money came from, he was not so concerned.

Someone will always find a way.

As if thinking of something, Emperor Jing suddenly said, "Do you think he has any thoughts about Mingzhu?"

If Li Yi didn't have a wife, he would even think that this was a good thing, but a princess of a country could not be a concubine.

"Your Highness Princess has known him for a long time, and she is also very kind to him..." Chang De thought for a while and said, "As for the others, it shouldn't be that."

He naturally didn't say much about this kind of thing.

"At Mingzhu's age, if it were any other princess, she would have been married long ago, but she has always had her own ideas. I don't know her thoughts, so it's not easy for me to make a decision for her. If it were someone else, it would be fine, but that kid..."

Emperor Jing frowned, muttered a few words, then shook his head, and smiled with relief on his face.

"It's getting late, take a rest."

Although he was still a little lonely in his heart, this was the child's heart. The child had grown up and could finally help her father share some things...

...

"Is it done?"

Li Yi looked at Li Mingzhu and couldn't help asking.

Li Mingzhu didn't speak, but nodded.

Although he didn't know why she didn't look very happy, and the look in his eyes was a little strange, but it was always worth being happy that the plan had made another big step forward in the expected direction.

"Drink soup, drink soup..." Li Yi served her another bowl.

Li Mingzhu looked at him, a trace of shame and anger appeared on her face, and she lowered her head slightly.

Seeing that she didn't seem to want to drink, Li Yi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, and said, "Forget it, I'll take it back for Xiaohuan to drink. The food bureau still has all the materials. I'll take this soup bowl back with me, and I'll return it next time I come..."

After all, whether the eldest princess grows up or not has little to do with him. The little maid is in the growth period, and nutrition must keep up.

Seeing him stand up and prepare to leave, Li Mingzhu's face turned the same color as peach blossoms, and gritted his teeth and said, "Put it down..."
