Wei Zhengdao: "Back to the Emperor, I would like to observe the calligraphy of the Eighth Prince! It is vigorous and powerful, and every stroke is as impressive as Mount Tai! Different from the elegant calligraphy of the calligraphy sage Wang Xizhi, the calligraphy of the Eighth Prince is indeed comparable to that of the calligraphy sage Wang Xizhi."

Fan is enough to become a school of its own!"

"Ding, compliment from Wei Zheng, naughty value is 13!"

"Ding, appreciation from Li Shimin, naughty value 15!"

"Ding……"

"Okay, well said!"

The ministers on the side all clapped and applauded!

Li Shimin stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he looked at the many ministers with pleased eyes and said: "My dear friends, can someone please explain to me what the meaning of the word 'hot chicken' is?"

As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, Li Tai raised his hand and said: "Father, do you know that spicy chicken means garbage?"

"Um?"

"Pfft...hahaha..."

After Li Tai finished speaking, all the ministers couldn't help laughing.

How can there be such an explanation?

It seems that Prince Li Tai was also infected by the Eighth Prince's naughtiness, right?

As expected, Li Shimin was really angry this time!

Li Shimin suddenly shouted loudly and said: "Asshole! How can you be allowed to talk nonsense in the palace study?"

"Ah? Father, Father, I know I was wrong!"

Li Tai was startled by Li Shimin.

Li Shimin continued: "Huh, for ignoring the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty, I have to teach you a lesson today! I will punish you today by going back and copying the Four Books and Five Classics, each copy ten times. When the month comes out next month, you will be punished."

Teach me how to punish you!"

"Yes, it's Father!"

Li Tai dared not speak out in anger.

It really pissed me off.

Li Shimin wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He just didn't understand why Li Taiyi's IQ seemed to be dropping obviously when he was with Li Chengfeng? Wasn't he like this before?

However, at this moment, Li Chengfeng laughed so hard that his stomach hurt.

This Li Tai is really interesting. He actually dares to say the word "trash" in front of so many ministers?

The other ministers also couldn't help laughing.

Unexpectedly, the eighth prince not only tricked the ministers, but also tricked his own brother, the prince Li Tai?

So strong!

Li Tai smiled bitterly and glanced at Li Chengfeng helplessly.

Li Chengfeng smiled and said, "Didn't you tell me?"

"Isn't this what you told me, brother?"

Helpless, Li Tai had no choice but to admit defeat.

…

Li Shimin took a deep breath and asked again: "Feng'er, now it's your turn to explain what spicy chicken means, right?"

"okay!"

Li Chengfeng took a step forward and said: "Return to my father, spicy chicken is a very famous dish in our hometown, commonly known as spicy chicken! It means, use hot pepper, mince it, add minced garlic and light soy sauce

, dark soy sauce, oil consumption, and other condiments, stir-fry until fragrant, add chicken nuggets and stir-fry together! Light soy sauce enhances freshness, dark soy sauce enhances color, oil consumption creates fragrance, minced garlic removes fishy smell, and chili blends into chicken nuggets

Spicy! Take one bite and your mouth will be filled with oil and water. The spiciness is endless and will make anyone salivate after hearing it. It’s never too much..."

"Chiliu..."

As Li Chengfeng spoke, he sneered and took a sip of saliva.

To be honest, he started to miss the spicy chicken he used to eat.

But because Datang did not have such advanced cooking skills, the chicken that was cooked was nothing more than stewing in soup, stir-frying, etc.

"So, it's the name of the dish? It's just that my knowledge is shallow!"

Li Shimin nodded slightly.

But after hearing Li Chengfeng's description, Li Shimin felt that this dish called spicy chicken must be extremely delicious.

So Li Shimin asked again: "Feng'er, may I ask where you can eat this spicy chicken?"

"Where? My grandma used to make a portion for me to eat, but now, I guess I can't eat it anymore! Because my grandma is no longer in this world!"

"Ah? That's it. My condolences..."

"Yeah! But it doesn't matter. As long as there are enough materials, I can actually make spicy chicken! And don't call me bragging. I dare say that I am the only one in the entire Tang Dynasty who can make spicy chicken!"

"Oh? Then, if I have a chance, I would like to taste what the spicy chicken tastes like!"

"Okay, welcome father to the Prince's Mansion, I will cook it for you another day, okay?"

"Okay, hahaha! Feng'er is interested!"

Li Shimin laughed happily.

After a round of laughter, Li Shimin spoke again and said: "Okay, today's calligraphy competition is over! What's left is the beginning of the political chapter!"

Speaking of this, Li Shimin's eyes clearly flashed with a glimmer of light.

The opening of the political chapter meant that he was now going to ask questions to test the way these princes viewed the policies of the Tang Dynasty.

In the past, Li Chengqian could give Li Shimin a satisfactory answer every time.

I just don’t know what the result will be this year with the addition of Li Chengfeng?

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said: "Qian'er, if you want to be a good emperor, you must have a sharp vision, a sense of smell, and excellent political skills!"

"Yes, Father, please remember your father's teachings!" Li Chengqian said, cupping his fists.

Because he is the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, in the eyes of the civil and military officials, if nothing else happens, Li Chengqian will be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty in the future.

Li Shimin continued: "And the princes, you will definitely join politics in the future and assist Prince Li Chengqian! So I also want to test your political abilities!"

"Listen to the question!"

Li Shimin said: "I have a very important question to test you now!"

"Excuse me, if one day, the Turkic army invades the country, the Tang Dynasty is in war, and the people are in dire straits!"

"Excuse me, will you use the money in the treasury to strengthen the army, or will you use it to relieve the people?"

Li Shimin asked the prince and princes this question that even he himself could not come to a conclusion about.

In fact, he just wanted to test them to see who could come up with unique strategies and responses?

And this problem is very serious.

If you give a bad answer, you may be severely punished!

On the one hand is the country, on the other hand is the army, on the other hand are the people.

How should these three be arranged?

And how should the prince and princes answer this question in order to solve it perfectly?

As expected, as soon as Li Shimin's words came out, all the princes fell into deep thought.

Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling on the side also shook their heads helplessly.

They thought to themselves that the emperor was really embarrassing them by testing the princes with such questions!

Li Chengfeng just rolled his eyes and thought of a perfect solution.

…

After a while, Li Shimin looked at Li Tai and said, "Tai'er, please answer first!"
Chapter completed!
