My harem can't be this messy

Chapter 196 The First Can of Maltose
In the evening, Chuntao waited on His Highness to sleep. After all, His Highness didn't let him sleep with her, so she had to serve His Highness and left here.

Li Zhi slept very deeply, and at night the wind blew up, and the wind passed through the bamboo forest, making a humming sound. It's time to go back to Chang'an.

Sizi should be back by then, and Sizi should be 12 years old this year, and I don't know how the father's favorite princess is doing.

If he was like his mother, Empress Changle, then he would be troubled again. According to historical records, Jinyang Princess Li Mingda has the closest relationship with him, not one of them.

Just looking at the titles, he was titled King Jin, and Li Mingda was titled Jin Yang, this was already evident.

Born to one mother and growing up together since childhood, Li Zhi didn't dare to think about how he would face this slim princess who had just grown up when his son came back.

Another scourge!Li Zhi sighed, at this time in the night wind, Li Zhi was a little disturbed, the wind blew by, and his hair curled up, Li Zhi watched the bamboo forest swaying in the shadow, and the sound of the wind blowing the bamboo forest was endless.

There was a rustling of bamboo leaves, and a few bamboo leaves were blown up by the wind, passed by Li Zhi, and finally landed on the long bamboo and wood corridor.

Li Zhi got up at night, so he didn't think too much at this time, the soldiers came to cover up the water and soil, and when his father and son came back, he just dealt with it carefully.

At this time, he took off his obscene trousers, and sprinkled a piece of warm and turbid spring comfortably by the bamboo forest.

Hearing footsteps behind him suddenly, Li Zhi turned around quickly, this was already an instinctive reaction.

Then a suppressed scream was heard, and Qiu Juzao stood not far behind her, covering her red lips.

Li Zhi quickly put on his obscene pants, and looked at the maid beside the queen mother.

"Your Highness, it's dark, and Qiu Ju didn't see anything."

After Qiu Ju finished speaking, she hurriedly withdrew.

"I didn't see what it was called, so this king thought it frightened her."

Li Zhi went back to his room and continued to sleep, so he didn't care about this.

In the morning, at dawn, the sound of roosters and bells floats over the city of Chang'an.

The sun's rays diffracted from the sky have gradually dyed the east into a bright and upright place.

Thousands of households in Chang'an gradually became populated, and traffickers got up early to make a living.The merchant hugs the delicate maid, and needs some exercise in the morning.The doors of the shops facing the street have been removed, especially those that are engaged in catering, and they need to open early to prepare.

Someone in the inn hurried out, and it was dawn, and they were about to start their journey again. In a fireworks alley, several frivolous men walked out one by one, and melted into the Chang'an Street, which was gradually becoming more and more popular.

In a carriage, the charming woman in the carriage covered her vermilion lips and yawned lightly. Next to her was a charming loli, who was holding a ceramic pot, and hugged her tightly in her arms.

The carriage passed through Chang'an Street in the early morning, passed through the fireworks on earth, and passed through the most prosperous, richest, and safest city in the world at this time.

"Hengshan, you insisted on going to the bamboo garden early in the morning, and Miss Huang didn't sleep well."

"Last night, I was going to Hengshan. The imperial sister insisted that it was too late, for fear of disturbing the rest of the mother, the empress, and the emperor."

Princess Changle looked at her little imperial sister, but there was nothing she could do. The first can of caramel was ready last night, and Hengshan had to go to the bamboo garden. She finally persuaded her, and she woke herself up before dawn this morning.

Princess Changle usually sleeps until she wakes up naturally, how can she stand this, looking at Mount Heng at this moment, there is nothing she can do, this little girl can't control herself anyway.

Next to Xia He, looking at the pair of sisters, the eldest and youngest daughters of the current empress, could only secretly smile.

"Your Highness, you hugged the sugar bowl all the way, then hand it over to Xia He, let Xia He hold it!"

"No, the caramel is finally ready, and Hengshan wants to let the queen mother and the emperor's brother taste it first."

After hearing this, Princess Changle put her arms around Hengshan's shoulders and sighed softly.

"You little girl, in your eyes, you only have your mother, queen, and brother, and you don't have me as an imperial sister."

The little man grimaced, and Princess Changle smiled.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the crowds outside gradually became more and more prosperous. Chang'an City in the morning has already shown signs of prosperity.

The fireworks in the world, the world of mortals, a ray of sunlight penetrates the gap between the two pavilions facing the street, and falls on the carriage passing by in a hurry.

Bamboo Garden, freshly washed, Cui Yan brought breakfast as usual, today it is still the old custom, put the wooden table in the corridor, Princess Yuzhang's room, Li Zhi has already left the room after feeding the congee and rice to the imperial sister.

As soon as the few people sat down, they heard the galloping carriage outside entering the bamboo garden, stopped in the bamboo garden, and the horses pulling the cart neighed rhythmically.

Empress Changsun and the others looked towards the direction of the carriage, and then heard hurried footsteps. The footsteps were very urgent, and it was obvious that someone was running over.

"Hengshan, run slower!"

"Your Highness, slow down!"

The sound of running and calling came from the bamboo forest.Then I saw Princess Hengshan holding a pot and ran out of the bamboo forest path.

"Queen, brother!"

The little girl ran with sweat on her forehead, and a strand of long hair on her forehead was stained with thin sweat.

After running to Empress Changsun, Empress Changsun hugged her in her arms and wiped off the sweat from Hengshan's forehead with the brocade handkerchief she was wearing.

"Mother, look!"

Heng Shan held the sugar bowl in his arms, Empress Changsun quickly caught it and put it on the table.

"Have you made the caramel from Prince Jin's Mansion?"

"My queen, I made it last night. The emperor said it was too late to let Hengshan bring it to the bamboo garden."

Empress Changsun dotingly hugged Hengshan tightly, and Princess Changle and Xia He also rushed over there. Princess Changle naturally heard Hengshan complaining in front of her mother, and glared at Hengshan, responding to the grimace of Princess Hengshan in Empress Changsun's arms .

"Zhi'er, this caramel was made by Prince Jin's Mansion, you come and open it!"

Li Zhi got up and quickly opened the sugar bowl. He also had no idea. At this time, he also wanted to taste the maltose made according to the family craftsmanship of later generations as soon as possible.

When the jar was opened, a faint fragrance wafted out. Li Zhi smelled it, and now he was a little more confident, but the smell was right.

Li Zhi took clean bamboo chopsticks and lightly dipped them in the sugar bowl. The bamboo chopsticks were stained with some maltose syrup.

Li Zhi picked out a small piece, put it in a small dish, and respectfully sent it to the queen mother.

"Queen, try it!"

Empress Changsun moved the bamboo chopsticks beside her, and gently put them into her mouth.

In an instant, the sweet aroma of maltose filled the mouth, and the strong sweet taste stimulated the taste buds of the tongue coating, making Empress Changsun slightly close her eyes and savor it carefully.

After coming to Datang for six years, I tasted this long-lost taste again.Datang's maltose is different from the maltose of later generations. One is strong, while the other is bland.

It took a while for Empress Changsun to open her eyes, then took the clean bamboo chopsticks from Li Zhi's hand, picked another piece, and delivered it to Hengshan Pass herself.
