Chapter 338 Chili Pepper

The atmosphere became tense for a while.

"Stop acting nonsense!" Ying Zheng finally caught his breath and scolded Meng Yi sternly, "I'm fine!"

Li Zhao fiercely patted his heart, and the ups and downs slowly calmed down.

This is the second time. Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. I wanted to let the emperor see the special features of Shanglin Garden, but instead he was frightened. It was a bit outweighing the gain.

Qin Shihuang was so good at being surprised, and those guards were so competent, but his little heart couldn't stand it. He had to face such intimidation without doing anything, and it was hard to get over it!

It seems that it is better to stay here less to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Meng Yi was confused and immediately asked the guards to sheath their swords.

There was another clanging sound of swords, and the guards quickly put away their weapons, and the atmosphere relaxed.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Shang Xin asked anxiously.

Ying Zheng stood up and said with some embarrassment: "I'm very good, but the sauce caught me off guard."

Caught off guard?

This is a bit difficult to understand.

Ying Zheng ignored everyone's reaction and immediately stared at Li Zhao.

"Li Zhao, what is this? It has a tingling sensation in the mouth, but it is very refreshing. With it, this hot pot feels better and more delicious. I have never eaten anything like this."

Li Zhaoneng could guess that Qin Shihuang would react like this.

This is Purple Sky Pepper, the king of spiciness. Although it is very uncomfortable in the mouth, it leaves you with endless aftertaste. In the previous life, it was listed as one of the five flavors.

"This is chili pepper. I accidentally discovered it and tasted it delicious, so I brought it back. I didn't expect that your majesty also likes it. It's my unintentional luck."

This was Li Zhao's excuse. Purple Tianjiao was purchased in a department store and was the best dipping sauce when paired with hot pot. However, this thing had not been introduced to Da Qin yet, so it was not known to the people of Da Qin.

"Chili pepper?" Ying Zheng was deep in thought, but couldn't think of what it was. He waved his hands as if it didn't matter where it came from. Anyway, he had seen too many new things from Li Zhao, and his thirst for knowledge gradually faded.

"What a good thing! After eating this, I feel my appetite is whetted. Please send a few stones to the palace!"

Ah! Here it is again.

Li Zhao felt very embarrassed. He was like this when he saw the glazed tiles, and now he was also the same when he saw the peppers. Qin Shihuang was a bit greedy.

It's not that he is stingy, it's just that the things in the department store are too expensive. It's okay for less, but it's only a few kilo! This is to suck his blood.

He quickly explained: "Your Majesty, this thing was acquired by me occasionally. There is not much in stock at present, but I have ordered people to plant it in large quantities, and it will be sent to the palace on the day of harvest."

"Yeah!" Ying Zheng didn't want to embarrass his unrecognized son, so he nodded and started to enjoy the meal.

The joy of being alone is not as good as that of others. Seeing Shang Xin and others next to him who were dripping with greed, he did not put on the airs of an emperor and invited them to taste it together.

Shang Xin and Meng Yi were not polite at all, and immediately began to enjoy the meal.

Seeing everyone devouring their food, Li Zhao shook his head and smiled.

A group of people who have never seen the world! But it’s no wonder that things from the past life are strange and curious to this world, so it’s natural to show such embarrassment.

Li Zhao was not stingy, and also prepared several tables for the guards. Everyone enjoyed the meal happily. I thought this trip would be hard, but I didn't expect it to be so interesting.

Some of the guards said in admiration and swept away the hot pots.

After a long time, a group of people slowly walked out of the hot pot stall, but it was already evening, night was approaching, and the distance was already gray.

The life of the people in Daqin is simple. They close their doors at night. In fact, lights are too expensive and few people can afford them. The only way to live is to take a rest early.

However, when everyone walked out, it felt like daytime. The big characters of the food street were shining with the brilliance of the scorching sun, and the signboards of each stall also lit up with colorful lights in an instant.

In the haze of the fragrance, afterimages flashed out under the illumination of the light.

The food is still the same, the shouting has not stopped, but the number of people has increased, even more than during the day.

"Hey! What's going on? What is this? Can it release candlelight?"
