"What is this?" Li Shimin stared at the thing in front of him for a long time.
Judging from the appearance of this thing, does it seem to be the watermelon Dai Zhou mentioned?
But Li Shimin didn't dare to confirm it himself, so he had to ask Dai Zhou.
He knows more than himself.
"Dai Zhou, is this the watermelon you are talking about?"
Dai Zhou waved his hand and said: "I don't know either! I have never seen this thing before!"
"Look, this should be a watermelon!" Li Shimin said.
But they don't know why the watermelon appears here.
The only explanation is that it was sent to the palace by the Shengtang Group, and it was given to Concubine Yang by Li Min.
But why is no one guarding here?
What happened?
Dai Zhou said: "But why is the watermelon here?"
Li Shimin doesn't care about that much.
Because he may have already understood it in his heart.
It must have been sent to the palace by Li Min for Concubine Yang.
Apart from this, there is no other possibility.
In Chang'an, and even in the Tang Dynasty, only Li Min could do such a thing.
What he cares more about is whether this watermelon is really what Dai Zhou said?
He licked his tongue.
If you can, you must eat this watermelon and see how it tastes.
He looked around, but there was no one there, and it didn't matter if he ate.
This is the palace, your own territory.
If you eat your own food on your own territory, what happens?
He doesn't care so much anymore.
So he asked:
"Dai Zhou, do you know how to eat this watermelon?"
When Dai Zhou was asked this question, he was immediately confused.
Because he doesn't know either.
And there’s no telling whether this thing is a watermelon or not.
"Your Majesty, the origin of this thing is unknown, so it's best not to touch it!" Dai Zhou said.
But Li Shimin smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? At worst, you can try it first!"
Dai Zhou:……
Is there anything so deceptive?
Li Shimin didn't want to eat it himself, but let himself try it.
He doesn't want to say anything.
If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have said so many things to Li Shimin.
It's really depressing.
Dai Zhou did not reply directly, but looked around, trying to find a eunuch and let them try. Wouldn't it be better?
However, now there is no one.
"What? You don't want to?"
"I...are willing..."
"Why don't you open a watermelon and let me try it?"
Li Shimin said this.
"yes!"
Dai Zhou had no choice but to bite the bullet, and he seemed a little clumsy.
Looking at the two frames of watermelons, he fell into deep thought.
What to do with these watermelons?
And he murmured: "Perhaps, this is like a winter melon, you have to use a knife to break it!"
But how to break it?
He picked up a big watermelon and didn't know where to start.
Until he put it on the ground and pressed it lightly.
Bo...
The watermelon cracked. The watermelon was so ripe that it cracked all of a sudden.
The red juice inside was exposed.
Moreover, it exudes a refreshing fragrance of watermelon.
After people smell it, they feel very strange.
Dai Zhou looked at Watermelon and then at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin frowned.
Why is it so bright red here?
Is it poisonous?
Then he motioned for him to eat.
Dai Zhou had no idea, so he had to take a sip.
After tasting it, his whole expression lit up.
This was probably the best thing he had ever eaten in his life.
And, once I started eating, I had no intention of stopping.
Li Shimin was watching on the side, not knowing whether to eat or not.
I had to swallow my saliva.
"Dai Zhou, how are you? Is this food edible?"
Dai Zhou may know that this is the watermelon Li Min mentioned.
In order to punish Li Shimin, he said: "Your Majesty, this thing is delicious, but I don't know if it is poisonous. I will wait until I finish it!"
After finishing, he started to eat.
Li Shimin was only on one side, watching him eating watermelon.
Dai Zhou, on the other hand, seemed to be eating happily, without caring about Li Shimin's feelings at all.
This stuff is good. He may be the first person in the entire court to eat watermelon.
"Dai Zhou, should this be okay?"
Dai Zhou ate even the skin, leaving only a thin green skin.
And, he threw it casually and threw it to the side.
He even swallowed the seeds.
Seeing Dai Zhou eating with gusto, Li Shimin swallowed again.
"Dai Zhou, let me try one piece!"
Li Shimin couldn't bear it anymore, he said.
"But Your Majesty, if it's poisonous, your dragon body is superior, so you can't test it with your own body!"
Dai Zhou said while eating.
Li Shimin didn't care so much, he took the watermelon from Dai Zhou's hand and took a look.
Dai Zhou tried to stop him, but it was too late.
Because Li Shimin had already taken a bite.
This bite made him feel happy.
"Good stuff, really good stuff!"
Li Shimin praised.
"I have never tasted such good food!"
He said again.
"You Dai Zhou, it's so delicious, you don't even have to describe it! I'll keep watching you eat it!"
Dai Zhou felt aggrieved in his heart.
"Your Majesty, the origin of this thing is unknown. I will try it myself. It will take at least a while. If you eat it like this, if something happens to it, it will not be good!"
Dai Zhou couldn't admit it.
This admission would make Li Shimin angry to death.
"Because you are so loyal, I won't argue with you for the time being!"
After that, he took another bite.
There was red watermelon juice all over the corners of my mouth.
Dai Zhou only watched from one side. He had never seen the emperor look like this.
Is this still the emperor in his heart?
But although he had thoughts in his mind, he didn't dare to say them out loud. He just watched Li Shimin eating watermelon.
Li Shimin has never tasted such delicious watermelon.
He also learned to wear a coat and ate the watermelon in his hand until only a thin rind remained.
With such a performance, Dai Zhou didn't know whether the food could be eaten.
"Your Majesty, slow down, don't be impatient!"
Finally, he said.
Because Li Shimin picked up another piece and started eating it.
"How can you not eat something so delicious? Dai Zhou, open another one!" Li Shimin was addicted to it.
"this……"
"Hurry up!"
Dai Zhou had not yet taken action, but Li Shimin came by himself.
He picked up a watermelon and pressed it on the ground.
The watermelon burst open.
He doesn't care about his image anymore.
He opened his mouth wide and started eating.
At this moment, two people appeared from a distance.
These two people were none other than Su Dingfang and the eunuch.
They were surprised when they saw everything in front of them.
One monarch and one minister actually squatted there and ate watermelon.
Su Dingfang was completely confused.
At the same time, I saw the watermelon on the ground.
And the watermelon rinds and seeds scattered on the ground...
That was what Li Min asked him to send to the palace. Two of them were eaten before they were given to Concubine Yang. And judging from their situation, they seemed to have no intention of stopping.
