Chapter 96 Li Chengqian's taste!

At the end, a song and dance passed, and the second wave of steamed mooncakes came out of the pan.

Li Lizhi and others served them one by one for Li Shimin and Empress Changsun to taste and appreciate.

Although I have eaten all of them just now, now is the time for the real competition.

Everyone wants to be praised by Li Shimin, because Li Shimin is the emperor, the lord of the world, and it is a great honor to be praised by the lord of the world.

I saw Li Shimin first picked up Li Chengqian's mooncakes and put them in his mouth, because Li Chengqian made them by himself, the taste was not very good, and they were a bit dry.

Li Shimin only took a bite and didn't eat more.

He couldn't help frowning.

"Chengqian, why are you so messed up in this regard? Moon cakes are snacks, not dry food."

Li Chengqian's face suddenly changed.

This was the first time Li Shimin criticized him in public, but Li Yin was praised among them.

He felt very unhappy, but he had no choice but to endure the jealousy in his heart, and his face became even worse.

Empress Changsun sensed Li Chengqian's emotions, and smoothed things over with a soft smile.

"Oh, Your Majesty, it's not like you don't know that Cheng Qian has been busy with his homework, so how could he have the time to study it? Although Cheng Qian is not very good at cooking, his homework has always been very good, so don't mention him. .”

Li Shimin didn't criticize too much and let him sit down.

Immediately afterwards, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun tasted Li Lizhi, Li Leyan, and Li Tai in turn.

Li Lizhi's was a bit too sweet, while Li Leyan's was a bit dry.

Li Tai's is not sweet enough and tasteless.

But these are all okay, Li Shimin didn't praise or criticize.

Finally, it's Li Yin's time.

Li Shimin looked at the bear-shaped moon cake, was taken aback for a moment, then smiled helplessly, picked it up and took a bite, immediately, the rosin was soft and glutinous, and there was a faint tea fragrance.

I don't know how much better it is than the one made by Yushanfang. Only one bite captured the heart of Li Shimin, a foodie.

"Hmm! It tastes good, Guanyin servant girl, you should try it too."

As he spoke, he handed a piece to Empress Zhangsun.

Empress Changsun tasted it and nodded appreciatively.

"It tastes really good."

Li Shimin laughed out loud.

"Min'er, I didn't expect you to be able to make mooncakes. The craftsmanship is so good. The mooncakes are delicate and sweet, especially the fillings are very well made and delicious! I will greatly appreciate it."

Li Yin smiled when he heard "hehe", jokingly, he is a well-known dim sum master, is there any need to talk about this stuff?

"Father eats as long as he likes it." Li Yin said with a smile, but in his heart he had already started thinking about rewards.

While speaking, Li Shimin had already eaten the second one.

Sitting on the table, Li Chengqian watched Li Shimin praise Li Min, and unconsciously clenched the hands on his lap under the table.

Why?Everything is Li Yin!
What's so good about Li Yin?Is it because he is so smart at eight years old?
Li Chengqian felt very uncomfortable, eating alone in a dull mood.

From childhood to adulthood, in order to get Li Shimin's approval, he constantly strives to improve himself. As a result, Li Yin can get Li Shimin's smile just by smiling.

Pity him for trying so hard to please him.

Thinking of this in his heart, Li Chengqian felt more and more uncomfortable.

"My son, come, come to me."

Eat a few mooncakes.Li Shimin held the moon cake thoughtfully.

Suddenly, he waved to Li Yin and said so.

Li Min ran up with his short legs.

I saw Li Shimin looking at the mooncake in his hand, and asked, "Min'er, how did you make this mooncake? What does it look like? A bear?"

Li Yin beckoned to Li Shimin mysteriously, as if he couldn't tell others.

This is an eight-year-old child, doing such a gesture, made the eldest grandson empress laugh.

Li Shimin tilted his head slightly.

Li Yin quickly stood on tiptoe and said in a low voice: "The mountain people have their own tricks."

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

Li Min is probably the only one in the entire Chang'an city who dares to do this to the current emperor.

The point is that Li Shimin is not angry yet.

It is not good for the king of a country to be angry with an eight-year-old child.

"Okay, okay, don't say it, if you can't say it, you can't say it."

"Then can you tell me, what kind of filling is this mooncake? Why does it taste different from the one you ate before?"

Li Yin blinked, paused, took the mooncake and broke it apart.

I saw a few pieces of Longjing tea leaves mixed with pine nuts.

"Longjing tea? Did you add Longjing to it?" Li Shimin was a little surprised, looking at the mooncake in his hand, and then at Li Yin.

Li Yin nodded and shook his head.

"Not at all. When kneading the noodles, Erchen used Longjing tea and the noodles, and the pine nuts were also soaked in Longjing tea, so the father could taste a faint tea taste. However, Erchen made this faint tea taste Call it matcha flavor."

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows.

"Matcha? The name is poetic. It seems that Min'er has a lot of weird ideas in his mind."

Li Yin smiled "hehe".

"Father, is this a compliment to my son? Is my son a compliment to my father? Hehe, thank you, father, for your compliment!" It was rare for Li Yin to show his childish nature.

Li Shimin was amused and laughed.

At that time, the music and songs were played, and with Li Shimin's permission, the palace officials collected the tools and ingredients for making moon cakes one by one.

Li Shimin and Li Min were talking and laughing. Compared with other royal children, Li Min and Li Shimin seemed more like father and son.

Couldn't Li Lizhi and the others sit enviously in their seats?
"Father rarely laughs so heartily. It seems that he really likes the sixth brother."

Li Tai said this with some taste.

He also hopes that Li Shimin can treat him like this, but he is not as courageous as Li Yin, so he only dares to envy here.

And at this time.A seat at the banquet.Li Chengqian gritted his teeth in anger.

He believed that he also envied Li Shimin's treatment of Li Min, but his curtain call was not the same as Li Tai's envy, and envy was mixed with jealousy and hatred.

He tried his best to improve his position to please Li Shimin, but Li Shimin was serious to him.

He once doubted whether Li Shimin really didn't like him, even if he had reached that point.

But sometimes, Li Shimin gave him a very warm feeling.

He smells a little jealous.

But what was more important was the strong sense of crisis that frightened him. The children of the royal family are not the children of the common people. Whoever Li Shimin likes is very likely to be the future emperor!
Li Chengqian fixed his eyes on the stage. If possible, he hoped to play with Li Shimin now, and he was the one who made trouble.

It's a pity that he can only watch from a distance, thinking that maybe he and Li Shimin will never reach this point in this life.

Because Li Shimin only likes Li Yin.
