The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

When Liu Niang mixed the batter, she made it quite thick, wrapping it on top, and added some salt and soy sauce to the batter as the base flavor. After frying, the overall color was a bit dark, and because of the thick batter on the outside, it was impossible to see that there were locusts inside.

Not to mention that the wings and legs of the locusts were removed when they were put into the pot.

Short, thin, one.

"Your Highness, what kind of meat is this?" A guard asked curiously.

"Emmmm........" Li Fu smiled.

Wu Liangye knew from his husband's expression that this thing might be delicious, but it would not be something people would eat on a daily basis.

Having been with Li Fu for so long, Wu Liangye knew his husband too well.

If it was a normal thing, his husband would taste it himself.

Maybe, this thing is more excessive than pig intestines and offal.

It was so much that my husband didn't even try it himself.

"There is a saying that no matter how small a bug is, it is still a piece of meat. Have you heard of it?" Li Fu looked at everyone and asked.

Everyone nodded.

But this is a truth.

Wait a minute?

This can't be.......

"My husband, this, this can't be a bug?" The guard asked curiously.

"Well, how should I put it, although it's a bit offensive, but you guessed it right." Li Fu smiled and said, "How is it? Is it delicious?"

When the guards heard Li Fu say that this was a bug, they were all dumbfounded.

Bug? !

Did they just eat a bug?

Seeing this, Wu Liangye stepped forward, took out a fried locust from the basin, and threw it into his mouth.

"Although it's a bug, it's still delicious." Wu Liangye said, "My husband, what kind of bug is this?"

"Locust." Li Fu didn't hide it and told them directly: "Locust with the head, wings and feet removed."

!!! !

The guards stared with wide eyes.

Locusts, locusts?

They are eating locusts? !

This.....

Some people couldn't accept it and retched a few times.

They were all children who grew up in poor families and worked in the fields. They had seen this thing before and even caught it when they were young.

"What's wrong? Isn't it delicious?" Li Fu asked, "Is it not delicious?"

The guards looked embarrassed.

"My dear, it is delicious, but locusts, can you really eat it?"

"Yes." Li Fu said, "You have eaten it, and this thing is not poisonous, it's just a small piece of meat. You can treat it as meat, and that's it."

"This is still considering your senses, not letting you eat something more shocking." Li Fu said, "Liu Niang, bring the other pot over."

Li Fu shouted to the kitchen.

Liu Niang's sturdy body was leaning on the door frame of the kitchen door to watch the fun. Hearing what her husband said, she hurriedly turned to the kitchen and brought out another pot.

Seeing this pot of fried locusts in their original appearance, the guards felt that their goose bumps were about to rise.

They had never seen this thing cooked into a dish.

Wu Liangye was not afraid.

This is much better than dead rat meat.

At least it is cooked and will not harm people. He ate a few just now and has no reaction so far.

When eating this thing, the first bite is mainly to overcome your own psychology.

And Wu Liangye has nothing to overcome.

His experience is not comparable to that of ordinary guards in the house.

Wu Liangye picked up a locust and threw it into his mouth.

"This is better than the one wrapped in batter. It is quite fragrant, but it is a little light and has no taste." Wu Liangye said.

"Sprinkle some fine salt." Li Fu said, "Here are the seasonings. See how to make it delicious."

Li Fu winked at Liu Niang, and Liu Niang understood and went to the kitchen to bring out all the seasonings that Li Fu asked her to find.

There were fine salt and various spices.

Wu Liangye tried them one by one.

"It tastes good just by sprinkling some salt." Wu Liangye commented seriously.

The guards beside him were stunned.

No, big brother, you really can eat it.

After seeing the fried locusts, these people have forgotten how delicious the locusts wrapped in batter they just ate were.

Now, some of them can't eat it.

"Don't you want to try it?" Wu Liangye asked, "What a pity, give me this pot, I like it very much."

Wu Liangye really likes it, because it tastes good! It's really delicious!

Wu Liangye also knew that if the five people including Qu Yanghe came over, they would also eat this thing, and it tasted good, and even this pot was not enough for the six of them to share.

Take advantage of now and eat more.

Wu Liangye said as he ate one bite at a time.

It was really delicious!Crunchy.

Seeing this, the other guards still had a difficult look on their faces.

However, they were not as resistant as they were at the beginning.

This was because they had recovered.

"Eat some?" Li Fu gestured to them to look at the locusts that were not wrapped in batter.

"This..."

"Try it, it's better than the ones with batter." Wu Liangye also advised.

Although he didn't know what his husband was going to do and how he turned the locusts into a dish, he still helped Li Fu and persuaded the guards to eat these locusts.

The brave ones, who were mentally stronger, chose to try again.

Because they had just eaten it and thought it was okay, and seeing that Guard Wu was eating so deliciously, they were also a little curious.

So they tasted it.

As Guard Wu said, it was better than before.

More and more guards chose to taste it, and soon, the pot of locusts was empty.

And they were a little reluctant.

"I have asked people to catch more." Li Fu smiled and said, "Today's ones are gone."

As he spoke, Li Fu spread his hands.

Even if they were caught today and cooked tomorrow morning, they would not be for the guards to eat.

Li Fu planned to bring a food box into the palace, and by the way, bring Wu Liangye with him.

He knew that once Li Shimin's "emotions" came up, he dared to swallow the locusts directly, but the way he ate was so unhygienic, it was disgusting to think about it.

Since you want to eat it, just improve it for you.

Don't let the emperor eat it alone, these ministers around you should eat it too!

Li Fu didn't plan to let Changsun Wuji and others go.

Stand in a row on the city gate tower and eat together!

"Perform" together for the people to see.

Isn't the people's hearts gathered?

It's unfair.

"Take this portion back and share it." Li Fu gave them the locusts wrapped in batter.

"Yes." Wu Liangye smiled and responded.

This thing is a good snack to go with wine.

In the evening, the people sent by Li Fu to catch locusts came back. Liu Niang told them to store the locusts for the time being. She would get up early tomorrow and deal with them properly. Then she would do it the same way as today, without coating them with batter, fry them, and put them in a food box.

"I will bring them to the palace tomorrow," said Li Fu.
