Tanabata Diva Concert: Happy Breakup

Zheng Zhengjin did not speak, but picked up the teacup and drank water.

Queen Changsun on the side smiled and said to Jinse: "Miss Jinse, please take us for a walk in the yard."

Jinse said with a smile: "Okay," and she also felt that everything here was not what she should hear. Damn, that was a national matter.

When Queen Changsun left the pavilion, Li Er said: "Guanyin can listen. He never interferes in the government affairs."

"Am I afraid of Empress Changsun? It's not suitable for Jinse, a little girl, to listen to such national events. You know it. I do it for her own good." Zheng Zhengjin rolled his eyes and said to Li Er.

Li Er said "oh" meaningfully.

Zheng Zhengjin complained in his heart: "You are a hammer."

Li Er asked: "Do you have a suitable candidate?"

Zheng Zhengjin rolled his eyes speechlessly: "The court has nothing to do with me. I just want you to arrange important positions in the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Industry. As for who should be appointed, This is your own business and has nothing to do with me.”

In fact, Zheng Zhengjin has a recommended candidate, but he will not say it out loud. After all, if that person has problems in the future, he will inevitably be criticized by Li Er, not to mention the butterfly effect he brings is already huge.

Li Shimin asked: "Among the six departments, you are the only one who did not mention the Department of Rites. What is the situation?"

Zheng Zhengjin rolled his eyes and said, "Think about it yourself."

Now the Minister of Civil Affairs is Gao Shilian, Li Er's eldest brother-in-law and the uncle of Empress Changsun. The current situation will definitely not cheat him.

Li Daozong, the Minister of Punishment, is Li Er's uncle Wang, and he will not cheat him.

Duan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, is a good one and there is no need to change him, and he is also loyal to Li Er.

As for the Minister of War, it should be led by Changsun Wuji now. After all, Li Jing is not in Chang'an for the time being.

As for the relationship between Changsun Wuji and Li Er at the moment, it is natural that they must be so good. They played Tao Da Dao together when they were young, and after all, they achieved the first merit of Cong Long Zhi Gong.

Zheng Zhengjin couldn't figure out why Li Er would put this position in the hands of an aristocratic family. Is it the family's trick? This is unknown, but it is easy for Zheng Zhengjin to think too much. The idea that this family wants to use the dragon-slaying technique on Li Er may be overthinking.

After all, Li Er is not the original Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang.

"How to deal with it is your own business, but if the Minister of Hubu is still a member of the aristocratic family, then I can guarantee that when the time comes, the matter of your cooperation with me in business will be known to the aristocratic family as soon as possible. And then it will be Some people will come out and say that you are competing for profits with the people, and they will forcefully take the coal business out of your hands." Zheng Zhengjin was speechless. People from the household minister family did not know what Li Er was thinking. The special aim is ridiculous.

"Actually, I also hate people from aristocratic families. I hate that they are struggling to make money for the country. They simply don't regard the common people as human beings." Zheng Zhengjin said seriously.

Li Er fell into deep thought and said calmly: "I will consider this matter carefully." It was obvious that when he returned to the palace, he immediately summoned Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others to come and answer.

Zheng Zhengjin looked at the sky and felt that it was time for him to cook.
Then he stood up and said to Li Er: "I'm cooking today. Did you bring the imperial chef here to prepare for learning? Anyway, Du Ruhui didn't send anyone."

Li Er smiled awkwardly: "I didn't bring it either."

Zheng Zhengjin said: "Okay, you win." Then he stood up and walked to the kitchen with his schoolbag. After all, it was a bit scary for some things to appear out of thin air. It's better to find an excuse to take it out of your schoolbag, which can ease everyone's mood a little.

Li Shimin sat there, drinking tea quietly. The delicious fragrance of tea could calm him down.

He was thinking at this moment that all the aristocratic families in the court thought that someone from the Taiyuan Wang family should be the Minister of Household Affairs. Could this really be a conspiracy? Now Li Shimin was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. But what Zheng Zhengjin said makes sense. At this moment, he felt that it made sense.

Zheng Zhengjin came to the kitchen. There were still many people in the kitchen at this moment.

Everyone was surprised by Zheng Zhengjin's arrival. After Xiao Tao saw Zheng Zhengjin, she timidly shouted: "Young Master."

"Well, you come with me in." Zheng Zhengjin stepped into the kitchen with an expressionless expression. Everyone found it incredible. After all, the gentleman's words about being far away from the chef were not just casual remarks.

Zheng Zhengjin came to the place where his cooking pot was.
After all, there has never been such a strange thing as stir-fried vegetables in the Tang Dynasty at this time.

Zheng Zhengjin looked at the various dishes in the kitchen. I'm a little speechless, there are too few of them.

There is no other way, so just cook the mutton. Then, under the watchful eyes of the little maid Xiao Tao, Zheng Zhengjin quickly shaved off the bones of the sheep with a knife, then put the bones into the cauldron and asked the servants to add firewood to quickly light the fire.

Cut the half of the sheep into long strips, put it in a pot with water, then open your schoolbag and take out some spices such as star anise to get rid of the mutton smell from the sheep.

Then Zheng Zhengjin thought for a while, maybe it was time to return to Qingcheng Mountain and pick up his cook there. In this way, some materials can be used openly, such as fine salt. If Zheng Zhengjin takes it out, it will cause a sensation in Chang'an.

Zheng Zhengjin was boiling mutton in the pot and said to Xiao Tao next to him: "Little girl, go help get a small jar." Then Zheng Zhengjin compared it to roughly how big it was.

Zheng Zhengjin took out a bag containing a pound of salt, opened it, and poured some into the mutton.

Xiao Tao quickly brought a small jar to Zheng Zhengjin, handed the small jar to Zheng Zhengjin and said, "Sir, is this jar okay?"

Zheng Zhengjin nodded, and then under Xiao Tao's gaze, he poured the pound of salt into the small jar. Then he quietly gave her a thumbs up and said, "I'll leave this jar to you. If you do it in the future, If you cook for everyone, use this salt, you know?”

Xiaotao's face was flushed, and she nodded, thinking to herself: "Young Master entrusted me with such an important task. It seems that you value and trust me very much. Then I will definitely not let you down." She lowered her head, Looking at a jar of snow-white salt, I was moved to death. She never thought that she could taste such good salt.

Then Zheng Zhengjin made a pot of mutton fried with green onions and mutton soup. After a series of operations, everyone in the kitchen was stunned. Even the boy who was lighting the fire on the stove was stunned. Especially when Zheng Zhengjin was cooking, the pot Everything is on fire.

The cooks next to him were all crazy. They couldn't believe that Zheng Zhengjin's cooking skills were so superb.

Zheng Zhengjin put the mutton on a plate and then ordered the cook and the servants outside to bring it to the restaurant.

Before leaving, he said to the maid Xiao Tao: "Little cook, the remaining half of the mutton will be your food. You can process it yourself."

The little maid was so moved that she said excitedly: "Okay, okay, I understand, Master."

Zheng Zhengjin followed the maids serving dishes to the restaurant. At this moment, Li Er, Queen Changsun, several princesses, and the Minister of Industry, Duan Lun, had already appeared here.
Zheng Zhengjin had no choice but to say: "There are relatively few dishes, so we only made one thing, a whole lamb feast. But there is no roasted lamb. Everyone, sit down quickly. You're welcome. Let's have a try."
