Before Li Yu set off, he had already understood the situation in the palace clearly through his own eyeliner, knew the emperor's living arrangements for this day, and also knew that the emperor had a lot of twists and turns to deal with early in the morning, so he deliberately chose a more suitable time to come to the palace, and after entering the palace, he sent someone to check the situation and make sure that the emperor had finished handling government affairs, so he rushed to the front of the hall at the most suitable time to prepare a barbecue for Li Longji to taste.

"Your Majesty, King Guangping is here."

Li Longji can lie down and close his eyes to recuperate when he is tired, but Gao Lishi can't be so willful, he just stands next to him, and naturally he can see Li Yu who is coming.

"Yu'er is here, what is he doing here?"

Li Longji said casually.

Gao Lishi looked at it for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, King Guangping has brought a lot of things, it seems that there is a big yellow dog, no, the old slave is wrong, it seems to be a sheep, and there is a strange thing, I don't know what it is." ”

When Li Longji heard this, he suddenly became a little interested, got up and stood up, and looked at Li Yu who was walking over.

"Grandson greets the emperor's grandfather."

Li Yu bent down and saluted.

Li Longji saw the yellow sheep, he naturally knew the yellow sheep, but he didn't recognize the rest of the strange thing.

"Yu'er, what is this thing and what is it for?"

Li Longji looked at the solar barbecue grill and asked.

Li Yu replied with a smile: "Grandpa Huang, this is a solar barbecue grill, which was made by Li Shilang a few days ago, and I used it once yesterday, so I brought it to Grandpa Huang today and let Grandpa Huang taste the roast yellow mutton made by his grandson." ”

Li Longji had seen a solar cooker, and as soon as he heard about the solar barbecue, he immediately looked at the sunny weather.

"Solar barbecues, how different is this from a solar cooker? Isn't it all possible to use it with the sun? ”

Li Longji personally used the solar stove to boil boiling water, and naturally understood the situation of the solar stove, but looking at the solar barbecue in front of him, it seems to be very different from the solar stove, the difference in shape is too great, and Nuoda's glass tube is the most essential difference between the two.

Li Yu hurriedly explained: "Grandpa, compared with this, the sun cooker is too bad, this has a glass tube, which can lock the heat, even in winter, the sun is not very good, it can be used normally, the effect is much higher than that of the sun cooker, especially for barbecue, the effect is particularly good, yesterday in the wild hunting, my grandson personally roasted a few ovens of yellow mutton, especially delicious, and it doesn't take much time, you can roast the meat in a while." ”

Li Longji quickly understood, through his previous understanding of the solar cooker, he also easily thought about the principle of the solar barbecue, and knew what the working principle of this equipment was, but as for this equipment, how effective it is, he must see it himself before he can be clear.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense, let's do it! I'm really hungry, but don't keep me waiting! ”

Li Longji is really looking forward to it, and he is really interested in this new thing.

Li Yu waved his hand, and asked the people brought behind him to quickly assemble the solar barbecue grill and put it in the sun to dry, which could be regarded as a preheating, and the other group of people went to deal with the complete yellow sheep, first peeled and then cut the best delicious food on the yellow sheep, and prepared to cook, while Li Yu was by Li Longji's side.

"It's really rare to see such a big yellow sheep! I remember that last month Chen Xuanli went out hunting and sent a yellow sheep into the palace. But the yellow sheep was much smaller than this one. ”

Li Longji opened his mouth and said.

Gao Lishi interjected: "What Your Majesty said is that the old slave also remembers that the yellow sheep is only sixty percent the size of this one, at that time, General Chen also proudly said that inside and outside the capital, he can hunt the yellow sheep, he is not willing to eat, filial piety to His Majesty, at that time His Majesty also praised him for being old and strong, and the hero did not reduce the year?" ”

"Old is old, I see that he is loyal, I casually boasted, and showed off his pleasure everywhere, at such an old age, I drank half a jar of wine at every meal, I was really worried about him."

Li Longji said with a smile, paused, and asked, "Was this yellow sheep hunted by Yu'er?" ”

Li Yu didn't want to lie, after all, there were so many guards present at that time, in case any of these guards leaked the true situation and was known by the emperor, he would be self-defeating if he lied, not only could not improve his image in the emperor's mind, but would also greatly reduce his image.

"No, Grandpa Huang, it was Li Shilang who hunted, speaking of which, it's quite embarrassing, I tried hunting with Jun'er, Qiao'er and Li Shilang, and the three of us caught nothing in an hour's time, but Li Shilang hunted five hares and two yellow sheep alone, ate a yellow sheep, and the remaining one was brought by me, Li Shilang was worried that he would not be able to explain to his wife when he went back, so he ran to hunt a yellow sheep, I saw that it was much bigger than before, so I replaced this big sheep and asked Li Shilang to take the small one back, haha!"

Li Yu answered truthfully and told many details of the matter, and it was like the truth when he heard it.

Li Longji's face was slightly cold, and he looked very happy at random, and said with a smile: "Really? This yellow sheep mainly lives in the north of the Great Wall, there are very few near the capital, last time Chen Xuanli accidentally hunted one, happy to be like that, if I heard that Li Shilang hunted three so easily, I don't know what the expression is, this is a good thing, it means that my Tang Dynasty is smooth and rainy, and the yellow sheep in the capital can grow so big. ”

He was surprised to hear the news, first, he was surprised that Ang Lee's hunting efficiency was too high, which was beyond his expectations, and secondly, he thought that his three grandsons had found nothing, but Ang Lee could catch so many prey at one time, which made him feel a little embarrassed, but if he thought about it carefully, Ang Li had practiced martial arts since he was a child and fought in battle, and his grandson had lived in the palace since he was a child, and it was normal for him not to be good at hunting, so he was relieved.

"By the way, Yu'er, Qiao'er and Jun'er?"

Li Longji has more than 20 sons, hundreds of grandchildren, and even many great-grandchildren, so many grandchildren, he can't remember every single one, and he has no impression of the unfavored Li Qiao and Li Jun.

Li Yu was slightly surprised, and replied: "Grandpa Huihuang is the two sons of the fourth uncle Di Wang, the king of Yidu and the king of Jinan. ”

"Oh, yes, yes, I remembered, this title is still sealed by me, it's really old, I forgot it so quickly."

Li Longji said with a smile.

Gao Lishi hurriedly interjected: "Your Majesty, King Di is the most blessed, he has fifty-five sons, where can I remember this, King Di has many sons, and he has added so many grandchildren to His Majesty, which is also a blessing for Your Majesty!" The more I can't remember this, the more it shows that there are many children and grandchildren, and there are many blessings. ”

"Yes, yes."

Li Longji was in a very good mood when he heard it.

And in the moment of their conversation, the butcher brought by Li Yu had already quickly processed the yellow mutton, this is the butcher specially selected by Li Yu from the capital, the knife work and speed are first-class, after all, it is to slaughter the yellow sheep near the emperor, and the other party cannot be allowed to wait too long, and the yellow sheep must be processed as quickly as possible, and the best yellow mutton must be selected.

Because the sunlight is good enough, when the processed yellow lamb is served, the solar barbecue has been hot enough, and the internal metal lining has almost been roasted, so it is very good for the barbecue, and it is estimated that the meat will be cooked soon.

"Grandpa Huang, it's all ready, the best yellow mutton, green onions, ginger and garlic, chili noodles, sauces, and mutton fat, you can roast the meat now."

Li Yu first made a report, and then started the barbecue himself.

He followed Ang Lee's example, first gently opened the inner lining of the solar barbecue, evenly smeared a layer of mutton fat, and then put the cut yellow mutton into it one by one, sprinkled some condiments at random, and pushed the lining in.

Li Longji didn't speak, just looked at the solar barbecue grill quietly, wanting to see what the speed of the barbecue was, and whether it was really as easy to use as Li Yu said.

"Your Majesty, the old slaves have smelled the fragrance."

Not long after the raw meat was put in, Colliers smelled the aromatic smell of food.

Li Longji naturally smelled it, stood up, walked to the solar barbecue, and looked at the solar barbecue with great interest, in a very good mood.

"Add the condiments again, and it will taste even better."

Li Yu gently pulled the lining of the barbecue oven, sprinkled the seasoning condiments on the yellow mutton that had been roasted almost, and then continued to push the lining into the glass tube.

Seeing Li Yu's skillful operation, Li Longji wanted to operate it himself, after all, it was not very difficult to watch, and it was very convenient to use solar energy to process food, there was no open flame and smoke, and there was no harm to the body.

In ancient times, there has always been a gentleman who cooks far away, that is, there are ideal people, it is not allowed to cook in the kitchen, this intention is probably to prevent people with ideals from delaying too much time on small things, so as to forget that they are people who do big things, in addition, cooking is not a particularly important thing for an empire, an empire does not have a good emperor and good officials, it is likely to die, causing the people of Li to suffer, and whether there is a cook who can cook, it does not matter much, so, relatively speaking, Cooking is nothing, a person who can cook, the biggest achievement is to be the emperor's imperial chef, and he will not have much interest.

Cooking is processing food, the importance of food processing was relatively minor in ancient times, but the food itself was very important, many dynasties would let the emperor personally farm the land, in order to reflect the emperor's peace of mind and respect for the land.

"Grandpa Huang, the yellow mutton has been roasted, how about you taste it?"

Li Yu gently turned on the solar barbecue grill, and pinched all the yellow mutton grilled inside into the plate, and then prepared to make the next one.

Li Longji gently picked up the chopsticks, with a satisfied smile on the corner of his mouth, this roasted yellow mutton, just from the appearance and smell, can definitely be very delicious, this Li Longji is still sure.

After gently stuffing the meat into his mouth, Li Longji chewed it very satisfied, and his expression was very happy.

This yellow mutton is grilled on the outside and tender on the inside, and the taste is very good, that is, the iron plate barbecue of later generations, and the taste is naturally not said.

"Sure enough, it's a different delicacy, it's good, it's good, Yu'er can eat some too! Here, let me try it for myself. ”

Li Longji asked Li Yu to eat some too, picked up the tongs himself, and sandwiched the yellow mutton in front of him into the inner lining of the solar barbecue grill.

"Grandpa Huang, it's easy to bake directly like this, you have to add some mutton fat first, and you can use any other oil."

Li Yu saw that Li Longji directly put the mutton slices into the inner lining of the barbecue grill, and opened his mouth to correct.

"Yes, yes, yes, put in mutton fat."

Li Longji smiled and smeared some mutton fat on the chopsticks, and then gently put it into the inner lining of the barbecue grill, because the temperature of the inner lining was very high, so the moment the solid mutton fat touched the inner lining, it quickly fused, and it also made a sizzling sound, a very intoxicating sound of making food.

After the mutton fat melted, it began to flow from the middle to the sides, Li Longji picked up the mutton slices, smeared them back and forth on the mutton fat, so that the surface of the entire mutton slices was filled with mutton fat, and continued to make the next slice until all the meat slices were full, and then gently put the inner lining into the glass tube, and then it was time to wait.

"It seems that cooking is not difficult! That's it, haha! ”

Li Longji smiled, then looked at Li Yu and asked, "Yu'er, why don't you eat!" I can't finish it alone. ”

Seeing that Li Longji really let himself eat meat, Li Yu was no longer polite, now it was just a meal, and he was really a little hungry.

The speed of barbecue is very fast, but no matter how fast the barbecue is, it is not as fast as the speed of eating meat, because the solar barbecue in front of me is small, the amount of processing is relatively limited, and the processed food is very delicious, so it can be eaten quickly after it is baked.

"Li Shilang is really a talent, he can always think of ways to invent new things, he is really a pillar of my Tang Dynasty!"

Li Longji felt a little complicated, although this kind of thing made him very happy, but Ang Lee's invention talent is too crazy, all kinds of strange but also very practical items have been invented in the same way, put it on anyone in this era, will be very surprised and unbelievable, at this time, it is only because they have adapted step by step, so this feels very ordinary.

"Your Majesty, the meat is ready, and it can be baked again."

Colliers reminded from the side.

When Li Longji heard this, he personally opened the lining of the barbecue grill, took out the yellow mutton that he had roasted one by one, tasted a piece of it himself, felt that his appetite was very good, and smiled with satisfaction.
