Chapter 113: Don't bully the poor boy
The cumbersome etiquette, coupled with this era when everything relies on the legs, caused the whole ceremony to be tossed until the afternoon before it was over.
This is enough to toss everyone, especially those princes and ministers, they are not young, if they toss two more times, it is estimated that they will go to see Taizu.
One by one, they dragged their tired bodies and withdrew from the gate of the harem, and under the guidance of the eunuchs, they walked to the garden where the banquet would be held.
"It smells so good!"
When they came to the area near the garden, they suddenly smelled a burst of fragrance, and these hungry princes and ministers involuntarily shook their noses and looked around.
Soon, they found that there were a lot of pastries, preserves, and wine on two plates on the road in front of them, and there were young and beautiful palace maids standing beside them.
What else to eat here?
When did the emperor become so sweet.
In the past, if you want to eat, you have to wait until the point of eating, after all, everything in the palace is a one-size-fits-all look, so it doesn't matter if you are hungry or your chest is close to your back.
These princes and ministers involuntarily walked over, but after all, this is the palace, and they don't dare to mess around, who knows if it is prepared for them.
"Are these edible?"
"If you go back to your lordship, these are specially prepared for your lords."
After receiving an affirmative reply, these princes and ministers were no longer polite, and immediately devoured them.
"Well, this pastry is really good, sweet and soft, refreshing and delicious."
"The pastries in the palace are naturally different."
"Huh? Chef Zhou's secret, hop cake. β
"Chef Zhou? Isn't this from the palace? β
"Jinyulou's new product, Jinyulou cake."
"This wine is champion red!"
"The pastries, wine, and tea here don't seem to be from the palace."
"But the taste is really good, why didn't the old man eat such a delicious pastry when he went to Jinyulou."
"Hehe, didn't you read what it says, new product."
......
After eating for a while, they found that there were some signboards on the side of each pastry, with the names of folk restaurants written on them, and not only that, but there were also the seals of each restaurant under the plate.
In short, there are all kinds of advertisements everywhere, and you can't fail to find them.
If this is seen by future generations of netizens, they have to scold Xiang Xiang, this advertisement is played without skill, and it has lost its conscience, and I have never seen money in my previous life.
But in this era of no advertising, everyone did not feel anything wrong, but was grateful, after all, they were all starving, and these pastries could be regarded as saving half their lives.
The key is that they are hungry and panicked, what they eat, and they have written down their favorite pastries.
The ad was undoubtedly a great success.
Stopping to eat for a while, it can be regarded as relieving, everyone began to talk and laugh again, this way over, but all of them were eating, so they were not in a hurry, but chatting, while eating, so leisurely.
Suddenly, I heard a person say in a deep voice: "How can you be rude in the little thing." β
This reprimand immediately broke the harmonious atmosphere.
Everyone raised their eyes one after another, and it was the cabinet minister Wang Xijue who spoke out, only to see him glaring at the front person, and walking in the front was not the cabinet minister, nor was it a relative of the emperor, but the seven-grade household department, Jiang Yinglan.
Hundreds of officials are here, you are at the forefront of a small matter, do you want to be an Internet celebrity?
Shen Shixing frowned slightly, in fact, he had noticed it a long time ago, but pretended not to see it, but Wang Xijue couldn't bear it.
Jiang Yinglan turned around and asked, "Dare to ask my lord, why can't I be at the forefront of the matter?" β
Without waiting for Wang Xijue to speak, one of them reprimanded: "Jiang Yinglan, you are a jinshi, don't you even know this most basic dignity and order?" β
Jiang Yinglan asked again, "You know? β
"You... Are you clearly pretending to be stupid? β
Jiang Yinglan laughed, pointed at those cabinet ministers and said, "It turns out that everyone understands this truth, I thought you had forgotten it." β
As soon as these words came out, the scene was silent for a while.
Obviously, they understood what Jiang Yinglan was referring to.
Jiang Yinglan looked at the silent ministers, snorted angrily again, and said: "As human ministers, we should do our best to assist Your Majesty and help Your Majesty gain and loss, but what about you?" Hmph, obviously I know it, but I pretend to be stupid here, I only care about my black yarn hat, and even the most basic dignity and humility can be left behind, you see what the palace looks like today, like a market. β
Speaking of this, he often pointed behind his hand, "Even the tooth merchant can appear in the palace, this king is not a king, a minister is not a minister, the people are not a people, if this goes on like this, the country will not be a country." β
Shen Shixing glanced sideways and saw a young man standing innocently on the side of the road.
It was Guo Dan, the son-in-law of the Kou family.
The princes and ministers opposite Jiang Yinglan hated it so much, this guy was really hateful, and he was determined to block everyone.
And those officials and historians began to move, and for them, this kind of scene was too exciting.
Wang Xijue, who has a hard temperament, couldn't bear it, and when he was about to refute, he was stopped by Shen Shixing.
You must know that there are actually many ministers who support Jiang Yinglan, and they will definitely not speak out.
And those who support the emperor or the cabinet seem to be a little timid, if this matter has to be fought for, they can't fight with ironclad, because Jiang Yinglan obviously refers to Wanli's canonization of Zheng Guifei, even if it is said to break the sky, this matter is indeed inappropriate.
The key is that this is a good day, if you quarrel over this matter and make trouble to Your Majesty, no one will have a good time.
The atmosphere was rather awkward.
At this moment, a hand fell from the sky and put it on Jiang Yinglan's shoulder.
Shen Shixing and they were all shocked.
Jiang Yinglan looked back and saw that it was the little tooth merchant who was standing on the side of the road, when did this kid walk behind him, he was still .......
"What do you want to do?"
Jiang Yinglan immediately glared at Guo Dan angrily.
One of his colleagues also immediately stopped and pointed at Guo Dan, "You are a little tooth merchant, how dare you be rude, let Jiang give things to you quickly." β
Another man shouted, "Someone, take this man down for me." β
The surrounding forbidden army also felt that Guo Dan's action was very dangerous, and when he was about to step forward, Shen Shixing suddenly stared.
Immediately, the forbidden armies stopped moving.
Although this official is arrogant, his power is not as great as that of the cabinet.
Guo Dan, relying on his youth and regular exercise, grabbed Jiang Yinglan tightly, so that he couldn't break free, and swept his eyes and said: "Don't worry, I won't hurt Lord Jiang, my life is not cheaper than Lord Jiang, I just have something to give to Lord Jiang." β
As he spoke, he turned his head, looked at Jiang Yinglan, and said with a slight smile: "Master Jiang, remember, don't bully the young man to be poor." β
Jiang Yinglan was slightly stunned.
The corners of Guo Dan's mouth raised slightly: "I think Lord Jiang may have forgotten how the Taizu Shengshang established my Ming Dynasty back then, and I privately think that the Taizu Shengshang must have met many incomparably noble and upright gentlemen like Master Jiang back then." β
A speaker immediately stood up and said, "Back then, Taizu Shengshang hated you businessmen the most. β
Guo Dan's eyes widened, and he said: "Bold, you little official, dare to insult the Taizu Shengshang, it is really unreasonable, come on, take him down for me." β
Shen Shixing and they were shocked, is this kid crazy?
Guo Dan raised his hand again and said: "Forget it, today is a good day, and it is not appropriate to see blood." β
The surrounding forbidden army glared at him angrily, you are a little tooth merchant, shouting nonsense, and you don't look at what place this is. As soon as Guo Dan shouted, they subconsciously prepared to step forward, if this was the case, it would be a shame and a big shame.
"You... How dare you slander me? β
The official pointed at Guo Dan like thunder.
Guo smiled lightly: "Let me ask you, Taizu Shengshang loves the people like a son, am I wrong?" β
"It's nature."
"Am I a common man?"
β......γβ
The official suddenly turned pale, and he couldn't make a sound, this question is simply fatal, and it is impossible for him to deny that the merchant is a common person, but if he admits it, then this crime will be big, slandering the Taizu Shengshang, it is not an exaggeration to copy the whole house, this time it is really careless Jingzhou, and he was pecked blind by the eagle.
Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue glanced at each other, and couldn't help but smile on their faces.
What a stroke of genius!
Guo Dan suddenly let go of Jiang Ying's scales again, his momentum was constricted, and he said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am just a humble businessman, I really don't understand the big truths you said, but I think that no matter how humble a person is, he also has his own dignity, and a person who wantonly tramples on the dignity of others will not get any respect, let alone be qualified to preach to others, and who can guarantee that I, Guo Dan, will not soar one day." β
Taizu is in front, who dares to say no.
Guo Dan smiled at Jiang Yinglan again: "Don't blame Lord Jiang, I have no intention of being an enemy of you, and I don't have this qualification, I just want to reason with you, just like you just want to reason with Lord Shoufu, I think you should be the most able to understand me." β
This sentence made Jiang Yinglan and other officials scold, as if they had eaten stool, and their faces turned the color of pig liver.
Guo Dan is nothing more than giving back to him in the other way, you can only refute his remarks, but you can't shut him up, you have to shut him up, then Shen Shixing will also shut them up.
Those officials really have a hard time, because Shen Shixing is obviously secretly supporting Guo Dan and scolding him. Otherwise, Guo Dan would have been taken down a long time ago.
They didn't know how to deal with this attack from both sides.
Guo Dan bowed his hand again and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, if there are no other instructions, the grass people will go to work, in fact, the grass people are here, not to participate in the ceremony, but to be ordered to prepare for the banquet, which is some very humble work." β
This is undoubtedly said that Jiang Yinglan heard it, I didn't have any trespassing, I am a businessman, but I also do the work of subordinates, and you are insulting me with all your heart.
Shen Shixing smiled and said, "You go and get busy." β
"The grass people are retiring."
