If you don’t remember it, I haven’t remembered it either.
There are a group of ladies in my family who are all beautiful and charming.
To be honest with you all, I also want to be a foolish king who will never come to court from now on, but unfortunately I have no choice.
When I was still a minister, I emphasized more than once that I would stay in my position and pursue my political affairs.
So what if I can't bear to get up? For the sake of the newly unified world, I have to get up."
"Little Chengzi!"
"According to the order!"
Little Chengzi waved the fly whisk and shouted in a sharp voice: "Your Majesty has a decree, a banquet!"
Under the astonished eyes of all the officials, one by one, the guards held trays, pushed open the palace door and walked in.
For a moment, the hall was filled with the aroma of mutton soup.
The officials stared blankly at the mutton soup placed in front of them by the imperial army, as well as the pastries and fruits beside the soup bowl. They still didn't come back to their senses. This was the first time they had seen such a morning court in decades.
Liu Mingzhi took a sip of mutton soup and looked at the dumbfounded civil and military officials nonchalantly: "You haven't even had time to have breakfast. Today I will withdraw silver from the inner treasury and take care of the food. I will eat and drink until everyone is satisfied."
.
When you need to eat, when you need to drink, when you need to discuss things, don’t delay them, don’t be formal.”
The officials looked at Liu Mingzhi who was drinking mutton soup and kept swallowing saliva, but no one dared to hold the bowl.
"What are you stunned for? Drink! Aren't you hungry?"
"This... I'll wait... I'll wait..."
An Gou'er was silent for a while, then directly picked up the mutton soup and ate the pastries.
Seeing this, the officials hesitated for a moment, then took up the mutton soup one after another, and tasted it while looking at Liu Mingzhi's expression.
Liu Mingzhi picked up a piece of mutton and stuffed it into his mouth. The remaining half of the walnut cake was stuffed directly into the queen's lips.
Under the Queen's stunned gaze, she turned the bowl in one direction.
"Tobe!"
Jiang Yuanming, who was cautiously drinking soup, quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks and stood up.
"I'm here!"
"Sit down, you should drink, you should talk about your will!"
"This... I obey your order."
"The snow this year has been a bit heavy. According to the information submitted to the Ministry of Household Affairs by the various prefecture and government offices, are there any problems with the people's housing and food shortages?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the memorials from various places do not contain this content.
However, officials in Xingzhou and Tongzhou Zhezi mentioned that traces of locust eggs seemed to have been found.
The local officials asked the old minister how to deal with it to prevent the locust plague in the coming year!"
"Have you returned?"
"Already replied!"
"How to reply?"
"Shilling revives the state, and merchants in Tongzhou prohibit the export of grain and feed chickens, ducks and goose seedlings to eat locusts next spring.
The worst plan is to imitate His Majesty’s Qingzhou disaster relief work and encourage the people to catch locusts.”
"The handling is good. If the weather permits, I will write another letter to the local officials in Xingzhou and Tongzhou.
Try to eliminate the locusts as soon as possible before they take shape.
Locusts are just locusts, and it has nothing to do with my improper position or the retribution sent from heaven.
Let officials not worry, set an example, and actively carry out locust control.
If this continues, if the people of Xingzhou and Tongzhou are still affected by the locust plague, I will take their heads."
"Yes, yes, I will send a message as soon as possible after I retire from the court!"
