When Li Shimin arrived at the hall, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui had already arrived. As soon as Li Shimin entered, the three stood up to salute, and then the host and guest took their seats.
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Keming, speaking of the banquet tonight, it is thanks to Erlang."
Du Ruhui looked modest, and said: "This kid likes to toss about these things now. I can't control him because of his low position. So now, I can only let him go."
Hidden under modesty, there is a trace of pride.
Today, who doesn't know that Du Qi's No. 1 tea in the world is making money every day.
Now Du Erlang has become a talent.
Changsun Wuji said: "Keming, I remember His Highness also invited your Erlang. Why, you have already arrived, but Du Erlang has not yet arrived at the palace. Could it be that he is still in the tea shop and can't make it for the time being?"
Du Ruhui smiled and said: "What's the matter, Erlang came to the palace early in the morning."
Changsun Wuji said: "Come early in the morning?"
He was a little puzzled.
This Prince Qin's Mansion is not something that ordinary people can enter and leave at will, and Du Erlang is not very old, what is he doing in the Palace.
Li Shimin took the words and said with a smile: "Erlang came early in the morning to prepare for the banquet tonight. The dinner dishes tonight, except for the wine, are all made by Erlang. This kid is in the back kitchen I'm busy, I guess, it's coming soon."
After Changsun Wuji heard it, he laughed, looked at Du Ruhui and said, "Keming, your Erlang was a businessman first, and now he's sneaked into the back kitchen and mastered the art of cooking. It's really unbelievable." ah!"
This is a word in words.
It is specially to stimulate Du Ruhui.
Du Ru's face was dark, and he was just about to speak, when suddenly, he heard a clear voice from outside the hall: "What Uncle Changsun said is not right."
"At least, the boy begs to agree."
"As the saying goes, the country is based on the people, and the people regard food as the heaven. It is equivalent to saying that food is also the foundation of the country. If the people in the world cannot eat enough, then the world will be in chaos, so the people regard food as the heaven."
"No matter what major event you plan for, no matter how supreme your status is, you cannot do without eating. Since food is so important, why not study the art of cooking, and what is there to be ashamed of?"
Du Qi talked eloquently, and already strode in, he said sternly: "Uncle Changsun said that I have skill in cooking, it is unimaginable, and the implication is that I look down on cooking."
"But you, a despised person, keep you hungry for three meals a day, so that you can cheer up and do things."
"Uncle Changsun has contempt in his heart, but he doesn't know that when you say these words, you have lost your identity and lost your principles. Your actions like this make the kid look down on you."
"It is said that Uncle Changsun is unparalleled in resourcefulness, and possesses the strategy of governing the country. He is a person with great wisdom, courage and ability. But now, seeing it is not as good as seeing it, and the name is not worthy of the name."
At this moment, Du Qi has already stood still.
He glanced at Changsun Wuji, and bowed to Li Shimin respectfully.
Changsun Wuji looked embarrassed.
He just mocked Du Qi sourly. Unexpectedly, Du Qi came over with some eloquent words. The most important thing is that Du Qi is so proficient in buttoning his big hat. Changsun Wuji couldn't bear it.
Especially Du Qi is only twelve or thirteen years old.
At any rate, he is from Qin Wangfu and Li Shimin's confidant counselor. No way, he would personally end up arguing with Du Qi, which would be disrespectful, and he would inevitably bully the small with the big.
So Changsun Wuji sat on the wax immediately.
Du Ruhui saw all this in his eyes, and couldn't help showing a smile in his eyes, but his face was serious, and he said in a neutral way: "Erlang, why did you not apologize for talking to your eldest grandson uncle?"
Du Qi turned to look at Changsun Wuji, and said, "Uncle Changsun, since my father said it, I apologize to you. But this apology does not mean that I agree with your words. It's just that you are old and I respect you." .¡±
Changsun Wuji smiled sarcastically.
Damn it, Du Ruhui is really shady, he would tease his son with one word, and make Du Erlang tease him.
It was inconvenient for Changsun Wuji to speak, so he turned to look at Li Shimin with a look of asking for help.
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Okay, let's not talk about what happened just now. Erlang, are you ready?"
Du Qi said: "Reporting to Your Highness, the back kitchen is all ready, and the food can be served only when all the guests arrive." After a pause, Du Qi continued: "Eldest grandsonUncle looks down on this culinary skill, no matter what, I asked the back kitchen to prepare the dishes for Uncle Changsun specially for tonight, Uncle Changsun will not eat the dishes I arranged. Anyway, you can't look down on it. "
Changsun Wuji looked at Du Qi, with a trace of helplessness in his eyes.
This Du Erlang is really a stalker.
Really hard to deal with.
People are big as little ghosts, especially when their minds are smaller than the tip of a needle. He only said one sentence in total, but from the beginning to the end, Du Erlang kept fighting back, which made him very embarrassed.
Li Shimin knew Du Qi's temperament. He looked at his eldest grandson Wuji and joked, "Wuji, it seems that you have angered Du Erlang. If you don't apologize today, I'm afraid you won't be able to pass this test."
Changsun Wuji was very embarrassed.
He is the core of Prince Qin's mansion. He also has an official position in the court and is a person of dignity. Now, he has to apologize to a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, which is really shameful.
Fortunately, there are not many people!
Changsun Wuji cupped his hands and said, "Erlang, uncle is narrow-minded and said something wrong, please forgive me."
Du Qi said with a smile: "Forget it, although I am young, I can row boats in my belly. This time, I won't argue with Uncle Changsun. On that day, when Uncle Changsun thinks he wants to reason, we will argue."
When Changsun Wuji heard the words, he felt contemptuous in his heart.
You can punt a boat in your stomach.
I'm afraid you can't even hold a single needle in your belly.
In Changsun Wuji's heart, he reminded himself that Du Qi is a dog and must not be messed with. Once he got into trouble, Du Qi would be a stalker.
Li Shimin said: "Erlang, when the guests arrive, you will sit next to me. On the one hand, you will accompany me to eat; on the other hand, after each dish is served, you can explain it to everyone."
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Du Qi responded immediately.
The pupils in Changsun Wuji's eyes shrank, because Li Shimin was too kind to Du Qi. You must know that being next to Li Shimin is not something ordinary people can have. It shows that Li Shimin attaches great importance to Du Qi.
Seeing this, Du Ruhui had a calm expression on his face, but joy in his heart.
Du Qi will not go into official career.
But it has its own fate.
After Fang Xuanling saw it in his eyes, he thought about it in his heart. This Du Erlang's future is limitless, and he must let his little one's wife, Fang Xuanling, spend more time with Du Qi and move around more with each other.
When several people were thinking about each other, hurried footsteps came from outside the hall, but it was Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong, and Qin Qiong who entered together. After entering the hall, the three of them bowed to Li Shimin and took their seats.
Cheng Yaojin is tall and strong, a typical big man in the north, his big black eyes rolled around, and his eyes fell on Du Ruhui, and said: "Keming, where is your Erlang?"
Du Ruhui looked to Li Shimin's side, now Du Qi is sitting beside Li Shimin.
Cheng Yaojin's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Du Erlang, uncle said before that he wanted to thank you. Unexpectedly, there are so many things to do, and they have been postponed again and again, but they have not gone. Cheng Chumo's evil obstacle, nothing can be done, thanks to your support. Although You are young, but you are not an exaggeration to be his elder brother. As an elder brother, you should mention him more to prevent him from being stupid. Uncle is here, thank you. "
For Cheng Yaojin, he doesn't care about face, and he is very kind to Du Qi.
Du Qi quickly said: "Uncle Cheng, you are being polite, they are all my brothers."
Many people in Prince Qin's mansion now know that No. 1 tea in the world makes a lot of money, and the Du family is making money every day. Therefore, when the group of people who entered looked at Du Qi, they were much more eager. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
