Chapter 268: Warm Pavilion (2)

As soon as he finished speaking, the mat suddenly became cold.

I don’t know if Xin Yande is really naughty or his words are meaningful.

Li Jinglong felt embarrassed and scolded in his heart, "Your grandma's!"

"The three generations of wealthy families in Duke Cao's family can still afford to drink Shaoxing Huang!" Bao Zhao laughed at the side.

This seems to be a good thing, but if you listen carefully, it is not a good thing.

Civil officials and military officials in Huaixi were born to urinate less than a pot. Even if they were both counselors of the Nanshufang and were eating at the same table, they would have to take a few insidious sarcasm when they were the chance.

When the atmosphere was cold, Xu Huizu said unexpectedly, "Duke Cao is so hiding. He doesn't say anything about this kind of good wine at home!" As he said, he smiled, "I will send someone to ask for some later!"

"There is also a junior!" Xie Jin also smiled, "If you drink this good wine one jar less, you can't miss this kind of good wine!"

"Haha, I have a lot of wine at home, so you can do whatever you want!" Li Jinglong laughed.

Then, he glanced at Xin Yande inadvertently and also at Bao Zhao.

The meaning of that look is, I am a big official and a lot of money, why do you have to be so sad?

Then there was a little dismay on the table again, and everyone was talking casually. They also avoided the affairs of the government, not talking about the officialdom, but only the customs and customs of their hometown.

Not long after, the waiter from the shop came outside the door, "Serve the food!"

Stewed turtle with ham, stewed pigeons in Huangshan, steamed stone chicken, pickled fresh mandarin fish, questioning mountain bamboo shoots, double-burning skewed flying...

In an instant, there were thirty or fifty dishes served in a large table.

These famous dishes are nothing in the eyes of the wealthy families, such as Xu Huizu and Li Jinglong, and are also lacking in the eyes of Xie Jin. However, they are indeed unheard of in the eyes of poor officials such as Hou Yong, Zhao, Xin Yande, and they don’t know where to get chopsticks for a while.

After all the dishes were served, Li Jinglong's entourage also brought the rice wine from Li's mansion, put it in a beautiful wine container, added shredded ginger and red dates, and soaked it in hot water.

Xu Huizu was under the table, touching Zhu Gaochi calmly.

The latter stood up, held the wine in his hands and said, "There are no princes today, only the younger generation of the later generation Zhu Gaochi. Gaochi is young and poor, and he will ask you all to give advice in the future. If there are any shortcomings, please forgive me. I would like to pay attention to this cup."

As he said that, he raised his head and started to do it first.

Everyone drank it all in one go, but Xin Yande just dripped his lips and put down his glass.

"Well..." Seeing everyone looking at him, Xin Yande whispered, "The officials are not good at drinking, and they have to go back to handle official duties after the show is over, so you can't drink too much!"

"It's okay!" Zhu Gaochi smiled, "Just click until you can, don't delay the important matter!"

Zhu Gaochi disagreed with such a young man who was ignorant of the current affairs. But in his heart, he also had a vague admiration for the other party. There are very few people who can do this big dye vat in the officialdom without being stained like mud. There are only a handful of people who can abide by the principles so much.

Zhu Gaochi didn't care, but Xu Huizu was a little unhappy.

The banquet was paved for Zhu Gaochi through his mouth, and he was half the master no matter what. Although he had a bad relationship with King Yan Zhu Di, he really had a good impression of this nephew.

Is Xin Yande a little ungrateful when he did this?

Besides, although Xu Huizu is so low-key and mature, he is also a top-notch noble family member. Since childhood, even the royal family has given him some face. Even if the emperor talks to him, he is always kind. Isn’t you too ungrateful?

Therefore, Xu Huizu asked, "Sir Xin, what official duties can't be waited until tomorrow?"

Xin Yande was also stunned. Xu Huizu was not asking him what he said, but he said that you have official duties but others don’t have them? Since you are here, why bother so confused?

"It is a memorial for the garrisons in various places!" Xin Yande opened his mouth, "It also has something to do with the Duke of Wei and the Ministry of War. The emperor asked the emperor to review the memorials of the military farms and soldiers in various places. The emperor ordered the officials to submit all the memorials when all the memorials arrived. The order of these memorials was different, and the numbers submitted by the garrisons, the Ministry of War, and the Governor's Office were still inconsistent, so the officials had to go back and sort them out!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Huizu and Ru Wei, the Minister of War, could not hold back their faces.

Although they were the counselors of Nanshufang and had the right to read memorials, they would still decide what kind of memorials to show them and what kind of memorials to the emperor's imperial front.

What embarrassed them even more was Xin Yande's words, that the numbers in the memorials of the three parties do not match.

"It would be strange if you can match it!"

Zhu Gaochi thought to himself, "The local garrison offices naturally have to hide it. The people who went down from the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office have different butts, and the ones who made the comments are naturally different. Alas, the difficulty in the world lies here. Everyone doesn't tell the truth for their own interests! If these memorials are sent, I'm afraid that the people from the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office will inevitably suffer from bad luck!"

"I won't talk about official duties today, I just talk about human feelings!" Li Jinglong smiled with a glass of wine, "Come on, I have a hard time having a half-day free time, so you can drink another drink!"

Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door, "You are still very leisurely for half a day of your life? Which day are you not leisure?"

~~

The ministers in the private room were all stunned, then stood up suddenly, not even taking care of the bowl, and fell to his knees.

Li Jinglong rushed to the door and went straight to open the door.

Outside the door, Zhu Yunxiu, dressed in casual clothes, stood with a few guards and smiling.

"See me..."

"All the rules are exempted, it's not a court meeting!" Zhu Yunxiu smiled and waved his hand, and stepped into the house, "I came here without invitation and became a villain!"

"Long Sui Ye can come, that's a blessing for me!" Li Jinglong bowed and supported me, and smiled, "You are thinking about me even more!" As he said that, he pulled open the chair, and just before Zhu Yunxiu sat down, he took off his outer cover and folded it in three or two and placed it on the chair. "Long Sui Ye, you came in outside just now, with a cold air on your body, I'll give you some cushion!"

Suddenly, Hou Yong brutalized Xin Yande and showed disgust.

"Oh, the food is good!" Zhu Yunxiu looked at the table and smiled, "Sourceful!"

"It's Hui..."

Before Zhu Gaochi finished speaking, Li Jinglong spoke, "Hui cuisine started in southern Anhui. During the pre-Song Dynasty, Emperor Gaozong of Song Dynasty liked this bite very much, especially this sandy horse-hoofed turtle, which is the most nourishing and nourishing person! Long live your life, try it!"

"Don't be restrained when you sit down!" Zhu Yunxiu smiled again, "I'm passing by too. I heard you are here, so come and have a look!" As he said, he looked at the wine pot on the table, "What kind of wine are you drinking?"

"yes...."

"Back to the emperor, this is a treasure of Duke Cao's family. The thirty-year-old Shaoxing yellow wine!" Xin Yande said from the side, "The market price is three silver dollars per jar, and the supply is still in short supply." As he said, he said, "Duke Cao made a big deal and took ten jars at a time. The minister's salary for half a year was gone!"

"You fucking want to get along with me?" Li Jinglong wanted to kick him on the spot.

Then he quickly laughed in a low voice, "Isn't this a wedding in my family about to be held? The marriage between the tutu and Princess Jin is approaching. I think this is marrying the daughter of the Tian family. Isn't it a waste of time to lose the emperor? So I bought these wines from Shaoxing at a high price. I thought that the days of great joy would be used to entertain guests. Today, my prince treated me to a gift, so I gave me a bonus!"
