Chapter 6 Born Foodie!

It didn't take long for Laifu to have two servants in the palace carrying a whole pot of grilled fish.

"Laifu, put it here!"

Shu An stood up and said loudly, although the conditions in ancient times were simpler, he still had a lot of methods.

For example, to maintain the temperature of the meal, this pot is specially made by him, and unlike the round pot you usually see, it is a rectangular shape, and there is an iron frame attached to it that can be used to burn charcoal.

There are also two iron holes around the iron frame that allow the two to lift up, so that the temperature of the food can be ensured.

Even Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he saw this manufacturing, after all, sometimes because of the distance or various reasons, sometimes the food he ate was cold.

Shu An directly lifted the lid of the entire pot, and suddenly a fragrance permeated the entire palace.

"Your Majesty, sir."

"Miss, no, Queen Mother!"

"This is a grass carp that has just been caught, and it weighs nearly thirty catties."

........

Laifu was a little nervous, and some stammered, after all, with the change of identity, the original young lady became the current queen mother, which made him a little uncomfortable.

"Grandpa An, Changle wants to eat big fish!"

A little Lori had already come to Shu An's side, her eyes were bright, and she fell on the iron pot, and said excitedly.

"Okay, grandpa will give Xiao Changle a big bowl."

Shu An said with a hint of pampering on his face, although there is no way to complete the ingredients because of the age.

For example, there is no such thing as chili peppers yet, and he vaguely remembers that it will be a thousand years before it is introduced.

However, Shu An used green peppers instead, as early as Zhang Zhongjing's theory of typhoid fever and miscellaneous diseases, there was a spicy taste, and the source of this spicy was green peppers.

As long as there are things, then it is not difficult to find Shu'an, and there is also some pepper added, which is purchased from Hu Shang, and it is comparable to the previous life in terms of spiciness.

"Your Majesty, do you want to test it?"

A guard whispered in Li Shimin's ear, but Li Shimin shook his head.

If he can't even trust his own father, then who else can Li Shimin trust.

"Innocent, let Changle serve a bowl of white rice."

Shu An's voice sounded slowly, if there was no white rice, it would not be enough to eat fish alone.

Although flour was the main food in the north, and more often than not, it was made into cakes, but for wealthy merchants and nobles, rice was the staple food.

Empress Changsun also ordered the palace maid on the side to give Changle rice, and at this time, even the future prince Li Chengqian, who was sitting upright, couldn't sit still.

If it weren't for the presence of his father, I am afraid that this prince would have jumped up, and the rich aroma would spread throughout the continent.

In his previous life, Shu An often ordered a pot of grilled fish with several college roommates, and a few bottles of drinks, which was a great pleasure for Shu An.

Although it's not winter yet, late autumn in the north can be a bit chilly, so a bowl of grilled fish with rice is definitely a great treat.

"Grandpa An, I want it too!!"

A little fat man couldn't help it at this time, and came to Shu An's side with his own bowl, and Shu An also served a big bowl.

"Queen Mother, the grilled fish is delicious!"

Changle, who had already started eating, couldn't help but say with a happy smile on his face, and at this time, the eldest grandson queen also couldn't help but have some intention to move.

Although he had a good time in the Qin Wangfu this year, he was naturally not as good as when he was his father in terms of food.

"Let's all serve a few bowls together, especially Wujian to eat more."

Shu An couldn't help but say slowly, to know that asthma should eat more protein-rich items, among which fish is particularly rich.

In fact, there were people who raised fish during the Tang Dynasty, but Shu An doesn't remember when it was the Tang Dynasty, but there were not many people who could raise fish in the early Tang Dynasty.

After the words fell, even Li Shimin, the king, couldn't help but have an appetite in the face of such food.

"This grilled fish is so fresh!"

Li Shimin couldn't help but think of four words in his mind for the first bite he just ate, especially because it seemed to be mixed with some wine and spicy taste, which made him feel the stimulation from his taste buds.

You must know that because of the drought in Guanzhong, Li Shimin has no appetite these days, and of course it is inseparable from the simple food in the palace.

Now it's just the soft taste of the fish, especially the charred outside and tender taste of the grilled fish, which seems to be a heavenly delicacy for Li Shimin, who has never eaten it.

Those present were in a burst of gobbling, even the eldest grandson queen, who had always had good manners.

As for Li Shimin's words, it is not surprising, do not forget that Li Shimin started in the army.

"Come on, send some fish and meat to my father, just say that it was sent by An Xuangong!"

After eating another bowl of grilled fish, Li Shimin couldn't help but think of something and said loudly, obviously not forgetting his father.

Shu An on the side nodded, it seems that Li Shimin was still filial at least at the beginning, even if it seems that Li Yuan's later years are a little desolate in history.

Presumably Li Yuan is not good compared to him, in fact, he and Li Yuan are quite familiar, after all, they were one of the few acquaintances back then.

After thinking of this, he couldn't help but think, after a while, he could meet this old friend, thinking that Li Yuan insisted on giving him the title of duke.

However, he was restrained by dislike and declined, and even after it was spread, it was even more indifferent to Shu'an's fame and fortune.

You must know that this is almost the pinnacle of the people, even if Li Yuan wooed those family lords, the highest is only the position of the county prince.

And it is basically a title, and it is also placed in some inconsequential positions, so it can be said that Li Yuan has given Shu An a lucrative position.

Even if it is the twenty-four meritorious heroes of Lingyan Pavilion now, it was rewarded by Li Shimin after he took the throne, not by Li Yuan.

You must know that Shu Jingjing made a few suggestions when the Tang Dynasty was first established, of course, this is based on the historical situation.

Basically, there is an eight, nine, and ten, and speaking of which, his merits are just that, which is also one of the reasons for Shu An's refusal.

There was no merit, but Shu An accepted some rewards, such as his current mansion and the farm in the suburbs of Chang'an.

Before that, because of the troubled times, even Shu An didn't dare to put all his family resources in one place, and in the early years, because he knew the reasons for the troubled times.

Secretly, he even sent people to prepare in advance as small traders, and made a lot of money from it.

Of course, these are all secret operations, and only a few henchmen know about it, and it was not until the Tang Dynasty established itself in Chang'an that Shu'an began to raise fish and arrange the industry.
