After being dressed as Wu Zetian's daughter, she was favored by the group

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom..."

The chilling sound of war drums lasted for a long time, and every time the drumsticks fell, it seemed to be beating on everyone's heart. The atmosphere at the scene was terribly depressed.

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

The imperial guards drew out their sabers and struck on the shields, following the frequency of the war drums, they let out a roar that shook the sky.

The east gate, which was originally noisy and chaotic, seemed to have been pressed the pause button suddenly, and everyone was quiet.

Li Lingyue carried a bowl of fried locusts, and stepped up to the high platform step by step. Behind him, Eunuch Chen and the commander of the imperial army followed, both of whom also held fried locusts in their hands.

Although there was no chili noodles in the Tang Dynasty, spices such as prickly ash, pepper, and cardamom were all available.

According to Li Lingyue's instructions, the fried locusts were made into a salt and pepper flavor.

"Bastard, don't throw it away!"

Seeing Li Lingyue bring the locusts to the high platform, Li Zhi was even more furious.

With a bitter face, Li Lingyue smiled apologetically at Li Zhi, and then, regardless of her father, she came to the side of the high platform alone, and raised the bowl in her hand high.

The sound of drums from the city tower stopped suddenly, and the scene was completely silent. Li Lingyue took a deep breath, and uttered a sonorous and forceful voice to the people in the audience:

"Do you think that my father is a foolish emperor, he is a high-ranking emperor, he only cares about his own pleasure, but he doesn't care about the lives of the people. He is called giving porridge, but in fact he is letting you eat locusts that even dogs would not eat? "

This outrageous remark, uttered from the princess's mouth, immediately shocked everyone present.

"Wrong! Big mistake!" Li Lingyue's voice became louder:

"You can see that insects are rampant in the pass, and hunger is everywhere. If my father is a fool... he will not leave Chang'an and enter Fuzhou to eat and sleep in the open; he will not go to the dam or go to the field to experience the suffering, and he will not kill profiteers. Corrupt officials, live food and night clothes."

What Li Lingyue said was deafening, and every word pierced the heart, Li Zhi was so ashamed to hear it, and she felt a little embarrassed.

Smelly girl, am I as good as you say?Still eat night clothes!
Li Zhi looked at his daughter, and then at the people under the stands. The next moment, he was surprised to find that the dissatisfied people had shown shame. They were like devout believers, and all their eyes were on his daughter.

In an instant, Li Zhi thought of the afternoon when his daughter was just born, he galloped on the stone steps of Daming Palace, overlooking his empire.

The four directions are peaceful, Fanbang pays tribute, the people are safe and prosperous, and the world is peaceful!
"Taiping! Yes, Taiping!" Li Zhi repeated these two words, and then looked at his daughter, a happy smile gradually appeared on his face...

Li Lingyue on the high platform, after making an impassioned report, made a jaw-dropping move in front of tens of thousands of people.

I saw her twist a locust out of the bowl!
"Eating my people's grains is like eating my heart! Today's Japanese princess ate this pest!"

Amid the exclamation of countless people, Li Lingyue put the locust into her mouth without hesitation, chewed it and swallowed it.

"Moon!"

Li Zhi shouted emotionally. He would never have thought that his daughter would eat locusts in the body of a princess in order to help him share his worries.

Li Zhi's eyes turned red, he felt distressed and moved!

Mei Niang, look, this is the good daughter you gave me!
The act of the princess devouring the locusts quickly caused a huge commotion in the crowd, and the quiet scene was full of uproar, and the common people whispered to each other.

"Oh my god, how dare the princess eat locusts?"

"The princess can eat it, so what am I, a commoner, afraid of? I can eat it too!"

"Haven't you heard that the princess is Shura who descended to earth, and is invulnerable to all poisons!"

"The princess is unparalleled in kindness and righteousness, and I am ashamed to be a scholar!"

"It's a good one, 'You eat the five grains of my people, like eating my heart', this is the demeanor of the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, which is many times higher than those great Confucian scholars!"

Li Lingyue ate the locusts in the bowl one by one, and the people suddenly felt: This noble princess has always stood with them. Only the princess really understands them, and only the princess really cares about them. them.

The people who were so moved spontaneously knelt down and shouted in unison:
"The eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

"The eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

"The eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

Not only the common people, but even nearly ten thousand forbidden soldiers knelt on one knee, slapped their swords on their shields, and let out a neat roar. They used the most noble etiquette of soldiers to pay tribute to this princess who loves the common people.

"Hahahaha!" Li Zhi looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he had been cured suddenly of wind dizziness, strode up to Li Lingyue, and proudly touched her hair.

"Eunuch Chen, bring me a bowl too, I want to eat locusts with my daughter!"

Li Zhi was in high spirits, as the emperor, he should stand up and take the lead.

"Your Majesty, this..."

Eunuch Chen looked at the locusts in the bowl, and was so frightened that he couldn't even hold the bowl steady. He just wanted to comfort him, but Li Zhi was determined to eat it, so he had to bite the bullet and offer it.

Li Zhi picked up a locust, pretended to be calm and said to the people:
"My people depend on five grains for their lives. This insect eats five grains and harms my people. I will eat it today!"

Although Li Zhi made a generous statement, he still couldn't accept it if he really wanted to eat it.

Li Lingyue smiled, stood on tiptoe and whispered in Li Zhi's ear:
"Aye, it's hard to swallow for the first time, you just need to close your eyes!"

Hearing this, Li Zhi didn't hesitate any longer, closed his eyes, threw the locust into his mouth, chewed it twice, and found that it was crispy and delicious, his eyes lit up immediately.

After eating one, he picked up another one. This time, he didn't close his eyes again, but the more he ate it, the more delicious it was.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The common people once again burst into loud shouts.

Even the emperor and princess took the lead, and the hungry refugees below were even less afraid.

In front of dozens of cauldrons, a long queue began to form. Li Lingyue caught nearly a thousand catties of locusts in the past two days, and they were quickly eaten up.

The refugees who ate the locusts were amazed to find that after they were deep-fried, dipped in pepper noodles and salt, it was simply a delicacy in the world.

From the feedback from the common people, Li Lingyue can already predict that in the land of Tang Dynasty, there will soon be a frenzy of delicacies featuring locusts as the main food. What tastes like salt and pepper, dogwood, pepper... will appear on the dining tables of the common people. .

Of course, in order to promote the enthusiasm of the people to catch locusts, I have to help!

Just as he was thinking, a familiar voice came from his ear.

"Princess! Princess!"

A little court lady trotted all the way to the stage holding her skirt like a fluttering butterfly.

The corner of Li Lingyue's mouth curved.

Sure enough, it was said that Cao Cao Cao Cao had arrived.

My sweetheart, you are finally here...
