There are no potatoes, no corn, and naturally no peppers. Tomatoes, pumpkins, etc. are actually all introduced from the Americas. Even the sunflower seeds are actually native to the Americas.

Even if Zhu Xiongying is the eldest grandson of the emperor, he cannot control these things. If he wants to taste those delicacies, he has to travel far across the ocean.

But if you want to eat spicy food, there is no problem. You can also use some peppercorns. However, these spices are more expensive and spicy, and ordinary people cannot afford such things.

Zhu Xiongying was in a good mood and was eating hot pot. These things have been available since ancient times. Although it is not Zhu Xiongying's "familiar taste", it is still delicious after all, and he is eating it with gusto now.

While Zhu Jingwan was cooking mutton for Zhu Xiongying, she said, "Xiongying, you have to be more careful about worshiping ancestors during the New Year."

Zhu Xiongying also understood this and said hurriedly, "Don't worry, little sister, the most important thing on this trip to my hometown is to worship my ancestors. Now that I am in Zhongdu, I naturally have to do my best on these things."

After eating the hot-boiled meat, Zhu Xiongying felt very good. He was about to prepare for the New Year. He must not delay it. The sacrifice was very important. Since Zhu Xiongying was in Fengyang, he must be the chief priest. These things cannot be left to chance.

Others do it for you.

While Zhu Xiongying was happily eating hot pot, Chang Sheng continued to be busy in the military camp. He still had a lot of things to do.

Especially today's nursing military doctors must pay even more attention to it. This is the achievement of His Highness the Emperor Changsun and cannot be delayed.

Seeing Zhu Xiongying, a young primary school student quickly clasped his fists and said, "Master Qianshi."

Chang Sheng was a minister of the Hou Army Governor's Mansion, with an official position of the second rank, and the same rank as the six ministers.

Chang Sheng nodded slightly and just asked, "Is it possible that there is a thread in the intestines of this sheep?"

The principal was very embarrassed and said, "Returning to your lord, most of them are just trying, but still can't find a way."

Chang Sheng was not happy and said very unhappily, "Idiot, you can't do this little thing well! You can definitely get a thread out of the sheep's intestines. This is inevitable! You will think about it later and you will definitely find the thread!"

It is also the job of these people to find threads in the intestines of sheep. These are the things that some people have been busy with in recent months.

Chang Sheng was about to leave, but suddenly he remembered something and reminded him, "From now on, you must not call me 'subordinate', but should be called 'subordinate'."

The principal was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said, "I understand!"

In fact, there is no need to think about avoiding taboos, at least at this stage. It’s just that the Chang family is special, so some things need to be thought about a little more. Even if it seems a little pedantic, it may be a bit redundant, but the Chang family should do this.<

/p>

Just because the Crown Princess comes from the Kaiping Palace, and because His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson also has the blood of the Chang family, this is the key.

While Chang Sheng was busy with these things, Chang Sen was also busy in Huainan, busy preparing to dig coal and cast ordnance.

He also remembered the emperor's eldest grandson's instructions, and asked carefully about the production of lime, and carefully selected some excellent craftsmen. These people may be able to do things for His Highness, there is no ambiguity, these things must be done well.
p>

Although he doesn't understand the importance that the emperor's eldest son places on craftsmen, even if he doesn't understand these things, he will unswervingly carry them out. After all, he is the third uncle of the emperor's eldest son, and these are the things he must do well.

The Chang family, or it can be said that the King of Kaiping's family, are all looking forward to seeing His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson being crowned the Emperor's grandson, and looking forward to His Royal Highness the eldest grandson being able to ascend the supreme throne one day.

It was freezing cold, so Zhu Xiongying didn't pay too much attention. He just did his duty as the eldest grandson of the emperor and worshiped his ancestors in a proper manner.

Since he was not in the court, Zhu Xiongying did not forget to go to the almshouse in this cold winter to see the old people and young children. Naturally, he was not empty-handed, and there were still some rewards, so that these people could celebrate the New Year.

The season is getting better.

Everything seemed normal. In a blink of an eye, it was the seventeenth year of Hongwu. Zhu Xiongying was also ten years old. Perhaps many people were eagerly looking forward to and waiting for Zhu Xiongying to return to Yingtian Mansion.

Officially canonized.

Zhu Xiongying does not need to be anxious. He is still waiting calmly and promoting the development of some things.

Chang Sheng and others are the same, they are doing their duty faithfully and fulfilling their responsibilities. They are also waiting for the day when they return to Yingtian Mansion.

Zhu Jingwan couldn't wait any longer and looked outside the house and said, "Although my hometown is good, it's just not as good as Yingtian Mansion. When I was in the palace before, I didn't know how lively it was outside. Only after I left the palace did I know that Yingtian Mansion was prosperous. If I were here,

Yingtian Mansion, it’s time to go enjoy the lanterns now.”

Zhu Xiongying gloated about the misfortune and said, "I can't go out on a regular basis, and I can only stay in the palace during the Lantern Festival. This trip is the best. I can't see the lantern festival, so my sister-in-law shouldn't go to the lantern festival."

"I'm hurting you for nothing!" Zhu Jingwan said a little annoyed, "When I get back to Yingtian Mansion, I'll have a good time outside."

Zhu Xiongying said proudly, "I know, I know that my sister-in-law likes to go to the tailor shop the most. I know that my sister-in-law likes to look at those rouge and gouache. Even if she doesn't buy them, she still goes there. Sister-in-law, you said you would go to the tailor shop the most.

How can you be so comfortable with your feet off?"

Zhu Jingwan rolled her eyes at Zhu Xiongying, not seeing that Zhu Xiongying was so proud, "The bound feet don't have to be very small, you can still walk, but you can't walk long or far, which means you are troublesome!"

Zhu Xiongying thought for a while and asked casually, "Sister-in-law, you said that I am ten years old and I am about to be conferred. Do you think that if I go back now, can I be allowed to go out of the palace more in the future?"

"Don't worry about becoming a general. My family doesn't expect you to be a general. The marshal just wants you to be a good grandson." Zhu Jingwan said to Zhu Xiongying sincerely, "How big a person are you?

,Why do you like martial arts so much?"

Zhu Xiongying didn't understand and could only explain again, "What man doesn't look forward to leading thousands of troops to fight on the battlefield? Ordinary people don't have this opportunity, but I do. Why don't men bring Wu Gou and collect Guan Shanwu?

Ten states; when I was drunk, I lit up the lamp and watched the sword, and dreamed of blowing the trumpet company. Think about it, I am looking forward to these things."

This time it was Zhu Jingwan's turn to gloat, "Even if you were favored again, I would never let you go to the battlefield."

Mentioning these, Zhu Xiongying was helpless. Although he had some luck in his heart, he always felt that he might still have a chance to go to the battlefield. But to be honest, the probability of this was really low.

However, after thinking about it, Zhu Xiongying still did not give up, "My grandfather is responsible for the affairs of the court. My father can also manage the government now. The court does not need me, the eldest grandson of the emperor. As long as I have some military strategies, I think it will be a good thing."
p>

Zhu Jingwan said in disgust, "Don't think about it any more. It's weird that you can go to the battlefield. If it weren't for some big event, the emperor and the prince could be allowed to go to war?"

There are indeed some. For example, Zhu Di, who went on several Northern Expeditions, asked the prince to supervise the country and then conquered Mongolia five times. It was not a life-and-death situation at that time, but no one could stop Zhu Di.

No, Zhu Xiongying needs to plan carefully. If he misses some opportunities, he may be trapped within the palace walls for most of his life.

Chang Sheng still followed his past habits and stared at some things again.

"Sir." A leader of the craftsmen smiled happily and said to Chang Sheng, "Sir, I finally got the catgut out!"

When Chang Sheng heard this, he quickly asked, "Oh? Please tell me how you got it."

Catgut sounds simple, and it seems to be sheep intestine. But now, after countless studies, I discovered that it is not sheep intestine at all, but made of the serous membrane of the outermost layer of sheep intestine.

The gut fat and other tissues are scraped off, the innermost mucosa is taken, and then washed, soaked, etc., to get the catgut.

Although this thing was time-consuming and laborious, it was finally done anyway. Sometimes the royal family can do things regardless of cost, and more resources can be used to promote the development of these technologies.
