Chapter 49: Really Fragrant

Seeing Li Chengqian's disbelief, Chen Zhengtai became excited and smiled and said, "Don't you want to give it a try?"

Li Chengqian lowered his head and sipped a sip of tea. After all, he was a young man and was competitive: "I will try it if I try it, but I don't believe it. A chicken can make me unforgettable forever."

Seeing that Li Chengqian was intrigued, Chen Zhengtai spoke, "But, my secret recipe cannot be revealed to others. He needs to remove the entourage around his junior brother."

Li Chengqian waved his hand and ordered the eunuchs and guards, "Retreat some, don't get annoyed here."

Only three people are left here.

Chen Zhengtai said, "First of all, we have to kill the chicken, but unfortunately I was bleeding... Junior sister, why don't you come..."

Princess Sui'an was actually dizzy when she heard the word "kill".

Li Chengqian looked at Chen Zhengtai and then at Princess Sui'an, and couldn't help but curse: "If you want to let the orphan come, just say it..."

As he said that, Li Chengqian rushed forward excitedly.

Speaking of which... Li Chengqian is really difficult for killing a chicken. After all, he is Li Shimin's son. Moreover, Li Chengqian has loved horses and riding and shooting since he was a child, which is also a tradition of the Li family.

After a while, a chicken was firmly held in Li Chengqian's hand.

He hummed in his heart: "Let's see how this kid Chen Zhengtai can never forget Gu. He thinks I am a three-year-old doll and has never seen the world..."

While thinking this in his heart, he killed the chicken according to Chen Zhengtai's instructions. Princess Sui'an brought boiling hot water. Li Chengqian opened the chicken and threw it into the water, plucked the hair.

Princess Sui'an was excited to drip hot water and pluck her hair, which naturally fell on Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian whined in his heart. He didn't want to do this... but he couldn't resist the curiosity in his heart. He wanted to see why Chen Zhengtai dared to say such big words, so he simply followed Chen Zhengtai's instructions.

He squatted on the ground. At first, he was very unfamiliar when he plucked his hair. Moreover, the water was a little hot. He grinned, but it seemed that the chicken feather was always incompatible with him. So he became annoyed and couldn't help but curse.

Princess Sui'an blushed when she heard the emperor's brother's scolding and said bravely: "If the emperor cannot pull it off, let the senior brother help you."

Chen Zhengtai took the charcoal next to him. When he heard this, he shouted: "Yes, if junior brother fails, I will come..."

Li Chengqian was sweating profusely on his forehead: "Stop talking, can't I deal with a chicken?"

After finally pulling the hair, Chen Zhengtai was still picking on the side: "Look, there is still a small group here, and there is also here... here..."

Li Chengqian was patient and finally finished it. On the other side, Chen Zhengtai took the lotus leaves and wrapped the chicken properly. Then he stuffed some garlic and vinegar into the chicken's belly. He naturally added some expensive peppercorns, pinched white salt, sprinkled some, wrapped the processed chicken with lotus leaves, and then ordered Li Chengqian to apply yellow mud on the outside.

Li Chengqian thought it was dirty, but he was unwilling to give in and applied the yellow mud firmly. On the other hand, Chen Zhengtai had already set up the charcoal, made a fire, and placed the chicken wrapped in the yellow mud on the charcoal to start barbecuing.

The fire rose and the charcoal fire emitted a red light. Chen Zhengtai ordered Li Chengqian to keep adding firewood. The yellow mud wrapped in was very thick and was afraid that it would not burn through for a while.

On the other side, Chen Zhengtai had already sat down with Princess Sui'an.

Li Chengqian heard that the charcoal fire could not be extinguished. After just so much trouble, he was a little hungry. He wanted to start a raging fire and cook the chicken quickly.

But he was wary, and while adding firewood to the side, he sweated: "Can this chicken be eaten even if it is covered with mud?"

"Yes." Chen Zhengtai said: "Junior brother, don't talk too much. I, Chen Zhengtai, said yes, that's sure."

"Yes." Princess Sui'an said frankly: "You must trust your senior brother."

Chen Zhengtai suddenly sighed, "Princess Sui'an is still conscientious." He looked at Princess Sui'an sideways and saw that her cheeks were already pink and tender, so he couldn't help but feel happy because of the charcoal fire.

"Hmph, this dirty mud-made chicken is still edible." Li Chengqian obviously questioned Chen Zhengtai's way of making chicken, making fire while nagging.

"Girl, don't fool this guy. He doesn't make us hungry later."

Li Chengqian was anxiously scratching his head and ears there. Why was the fire not burning strong?

He is the prince, and is cared for by thousands of people. He is always pampered and has a good time. He is out of clothes and food, and knows nothing about this.

He didn't know that there was so much knowledge to make fire.

So he lay on the ground, his buttocks arched high, and his head poked out like a turtle, took out the bamboo tube, and blew it into the fire desperately, so... a burst of smoke and chaos.

"Oh, this damn fire, I will cut them sooner or later."

Chen Zhengtai is already immune to various threats from Lee Seung-qian.

After all... he is still a child.

A child full of anger.

Such a person... can't afford to offend him. Chen Zhengtai would rather learn from Wei Zheng and scold Li Shimin than dare to make Li Chengqian anxious.

But then again, I, Chen Zhengtai, are also a child now.

The sun is already on the verge of noon.

Finally... the almost-baked cracked yellow mud exuded a burst of fragrance.

Li Chengqian, who was fiddling with the charcoal fire, was already hungry. When he smelled the fragrance, his saliva flowed out in a daze and fell on the red charcoal, making a crackling sound.

"Okay, is it time to eat?"

"Wait a little longer." Chen Zhengtai calmed down and acted as a thinker.

It seems that the fire is not strong enough.

Li Chengqian then continued to add firewood, gritting his teeth. He had never felt hungry in his life, let alone the smell emitted from the yellow mud was so fragrant.

So he spent the whole time and struggled for an hour and a half. Li Chengqian felt that he had almost no strength. The sun at noon had begun to slowly fall. His whole body was soaked with sweat. He was sick and lost his strength at once.

The originally decent clothes are now smoked black, with extremely well-combed long hair, and they also look a bit undressed.

He panted, feeling that every moment passed, it was like suffering in a pan of oil.

Finally... Chen Zhengtai stood up: "Come on, hook the chicken out."

Li Chengqian suddenly felt energetic. He felt that his chest was hungry and pressed against his back. On weekdays, he wanted to have meals. No one would starve him. Today... after working for so long and hungry for so long, his eyes turned green, staring at the chicken wrapped in yellow mud, emitting a creeping light, green, like a green grassland.

At this time, Chen Zhengtai asked someone to take the tableware, and then knocked the yellow mud outside the chicken bit by bit. Then, the lotus leaves covered with fat were exposed to everyone's eyes, and a strong fragrance came to his face. Li Chengqian ignored the hotness. He was so hungry that he opened the lotus leaves, and the burning orange-yellow chicken showed clues. Chen Zhengtai took a knife, cut off a small piece of meat, and sent it to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian had long forgotten the anger with Chen Zhengtai, and his saliva flowed out in a bad mood, stuffing meat into his mouth like a vicious dog rushing to eat.

In an instant, Li Chengqian felt a crispy, fat and tender meat in his mouth, and there was no ordinary chicken feeling. It felt like melting in the mouth. The salty taste of salt, the vinegar flavor blended with the chicken, the spicy taste brought by the pepper, and the unique aroma of the chicken. Of course, this is not the point. The point is that Li Chengqian was hungry, and a hungry person with his chest on his back suddenly tasted such chicken: "Cough... cough..."

However, Li Chengqian was eating too fast and even coughed so hard that he was about to burst out.

Princess Sui'an on the side was anxious: "Brother..."

Who knew that Li Chengqian had swallowed the chicken in his mouth completely regardless of his politeness. Then he reached out and grabbed the remaining chicken. He didn't hesitate to tear off a chicken leg without hesitation. The taste of the chicken leg was even more fragrant and refreshing. At this time... Li Chengqian grabbed the chicken leg that had been chewed halfway, and said with a spirit: "It's so fragrant. I have never eaten such a delicious food in my life, haha..."

Of course chickens are good chickens.

But another reason why it smells so good is that he is too hungry. A man who has never tried to be hungry suddenly became so hungry. Why didn’t this chicken not teach him unforgettable?

In addition... there is also an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.

This was almost a chicken made by Li Chengqian himself. The prince made it himself and spent countless effort. This hard-won sense of accomplishment was enough to make Li Chengqian feel indescribable comfort while having a feast.
