"Is it tasty?"

"tasty."

While replying, the prince did not forget to pick up another locust and stuff it into his mouth. At first, he first grabbed a shrimp steak, but after the second grabbed a locust and ate it, he even grabbed three locusts.

Feng Lishi coughed twice and reminded the prince, but the prince still picked up another one.

Luo Cheng laughed and said, "I have said a long time ago that you will think of two if you eat one. I will remind you that Mr. Liu will have more delicious foods made of locusts later. You have to keep some stomach, and you won't be able to eat them if you wait."

After the prince chewed the one, he reached out to wipe his mouth.

"Father, I'm so rude, but the shrimp and chicken chops are so delicious this day."

The prince said, bringing the plate of Tianzhe Chicken Steak to the emperor.

Luo Cheng took a pair of new silver chopsticks from the Eunuch Hall and picked up a locust. It was so crispy when he entered his mouth, but it also stuffed with chicken smell. It was not an exaggeration to call it a Tianji.

The emperor only ate one, gave the chef a thumbs up, and then ate another shrimp, and pointed to the remaining locusts and shrimp trays, "Feng Lishi, try it, and give the rest to everyone."

There were only eighteen locusts and eighteen shrimps in total.

The prince ate four locusts and one shrimp, the emperor ate one, and Li Lianying also ate one, with fifteen shrimps and twelve locusts left. There were more people and few grasshoppers, so he followed the grade, one by one, and after that, he could only swallow his saliva if he didn't eat anything later.

The prince couldn't help but ask Mr. Liu, "What is the second dish?"

"The second dish is drunk grasshoppers. Add salt, sugar, and pepper to boil. After cooling, add wine and mix well to make drunken braised. Then wash a pound of live grasshoppers, drain the water, take a porcelain bowl, put in green onion, ginger and tangerine peel, then put in live grasshoppers, put on the green onion, ginger and tangerine peel, press on top of it and add heavy objects to the drunken braised braised, put in the ice room for refrigeration for four days and then eat. When eating, pour water on it to make drunken braised. This dish is fragrant, fishy and delicious."

The prince was drooling again as he listened.

"It sounds like the same as the recipe for drunk shrimp. It has to be refrigerated for four days, so I can't eat it today."

The chef said, "I have prepared this dish in advance. I brought ten kilograms here today. Now I poured some drunken braised rice and can be eaten directly."

With a wave of his hand, the imperial chef immediately brought bowls of drunken shrimps.

A large bowl is exactly one pound of prepared drunk shrimps, a total of ten bowls.

Open it and pour it on the intoxicating stew, and a special aroma of wine hits you.

This time Feng Lishi asked to try the dishes for the emperor.

The prince couldn't wait, so he took the silver chopsticks and picked up one and ate it.

"It's very similar to drunk shrimp, and it's as delicious."

This dish was prepared for ten kilograms, so the officials in Jinglou Division, even the guards of Jinwu Guard, were assigned one.

When I first took it, I felt that the locust was ferocious and had nowhere to put my mouth, but I couldn't stand the temptation of the wine. After taking it, I found that it tasted fresh and fragrant. After eating it, I wanted to eat it again, but it was gone, so I could only lick my lips and my fingers.

"Chef Liu, what other locust dishes are there?"

"Locusts are soaring, spicy grasshoppers, crispy fried locusts, braised locusts, golden sand flying geese, fried chicken, grasshoppers cross the snowy mountains..." Mr. Liu announced a long string of dishes in one breath, with hundreds of dishes, but it didn't stop.

The prince was shocked.

I was amazed at the ability of Mr. Liu to report hundreds of dishes in this breath, and even more amazed at the hundreds of locust dishes. Just listening to those names is very tempting.

There are two dishes such as shrimp and chicken chops and drunk grasshoppers as the base. The prince no longer resists the locusts at all. In his opinion, locusts are simply synonymous with delicious food.

"Please ask Mr. Liu to make it for the orphans as soon as possible, no, it is for the saint to taste it." The prince could no longer control his saliva.

Mr. Liu was calm on the noodles, but he was still very proud and excited. The prince and everyone liked his dishes so much. Although these locust dishes were all told by the emperor and he improved them, they were still the recipes of the saints after all. This is the only regret.

"Li Lianying."

"I'm here." Li Lianying was also very satisfied with eating. She ate more than a dozen locust dishes, but she was not tired of it at all.

"I brought the prince and the imperial chefs here today. The most important thing is to ask your Jinglou Department to help promote this locust recipe. We must find ways to let more people know these recipes, and let more people accept these locust dishes in the shortest time."

Li Lianying was a little puzzled. Why did the emperor pay attention to such small things?

"If everyone likes locust vegetables, the chances of extermination of locusts will increase by 10% again. So don't underestimate this. As long as everyone thinks that the locusts can be eaten and delicious, then I believe that there will be fewer locusts in the future."

"Then I first sent someone to inform the restaurants and hotels in Luoyang City, let them come over to visit and learn locust dishes, try locust dishes, and then let them go back and add locust dishes?"

"This is not enough. Isn't it enough? Isn't it during the imperial examination? There are many scholars in Chang'an, and there are also many merchants in various places. Now Luoyang is also building street markets with demolition of walls. I think you can set up some food stalls on various streets of Luoyang, such as fried locusts, roasted grasshoppers, etc., to make it up!"

"I will also hold a full locust banquet in the palace, and then all civil and military officials, meritorious soldiers, scholars and students, merchants and craftsmen will come to eat."

Jinglou Department is the commander-in-chief of the imperial court to control locusts, so Luo Chengyexian used this place as the first stop to promote locust vegetables. The emperor could not do everything himself, and the most important thing was to use the help of the following to execute it.

The emperor was able to personally develop locust recipes and take the lead in trying them out, which was already a great example.

"If it can set off a wave of people eating locust vegetables, I will remember that you, Li Lianying, have made great contributions, but if the promotion is not effective, I will be punished severely at that time."

When Jinglousi left, Prince Jiawen did not forget to hold a few skewers of roasted grasshoppers in his hand, saying that he would take them back for his mother and younger brothers and sisters to eat.

"You guy is a little filial, not just greedy." Luo Cheng took out his handkerchief and wiped the prince's mouth. "You can't eat too much fried food, it's easy to get fat. Prince, how have you practiced martial arts recently? How many bows can you shoot, how many arrows can you shoot, and how are you shooting equestrian?"

When his father asked about this, Jiawen's joy suddenly dissipated.

He answered a little embarrassedly, and Luo Cheng frowned when he heard this.

"You are a slasher who is riding and shooting. Your brother Zhewei's riding and shooting are far superior to you. Although you are the prince and you will be the emperor in the future, you don't need to charge and kill the enemy. But our Luo family started with martial arts. All of you and your uncles are brave and good at fighting. You can't be too bad."

Jiawen said in a little disappointed manner, "My son will work harder."

"The exercise must be strengthened and the diet must be relatively improved. I will ask the Shang Food Bureau to formulate a special diet recipe for you. In addition, every day in the future, you will get up early to exercise and exercise with me. There is no trick, you can only study hard and persevere. You will come to practice martial arts with me in the morning, and then go to court to study government affairs with me. After going to court, you will take classes at Chongwenguan, do your homework in the afternoon, and some tasks that I have assigned you to feed horses, dogs, silkworms, and flowers."

The prince nodded helplessly.
