Chapter 1208: The New Year is coming
Su You's reputation for being good at cooking has now spread to North Korea.
Su You also specially prepared chicken soup, meatballs, and shredded radish soup for Xiao Zhao's maid, and asked the nurse not to give him barbecue.
Zhao Ji held a plate and a skewer, and stood on the stargazing platform of Si Tianjian overlooking the entire imperial city and Kaifeng Mansion: "The country is so good, how can you allow Fanyi to be ugly and contemptuous!" ”
Su You said: "Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry, the foundation has been consolidated, and their era is gone forever." ”
Zhao Ji wanted to listen to persuasion, but told him in his heart that he didn't allow it: "You really can't start it in advance?" I can't wait to send troops now! ”
Su You shook his head: "Now that the troops are dispatched, the soldiers will certainly die the same, but they will make more senseless sacrifices." Your Majesty, their lives are very precious. ”
Zhao Ji said: "It's a pity that the ministers in the palace didn't see the big war coming, only Zhang Fangping of Zhishi was on the table, but he wanted me to rest quietly." ”
"What do you say about a good soldier or a lustful man, what Wang Shao caused trouble in Xihe, Zhang Dian provoked in Meishan, Shen Qi and Liu Yi recurred in Annan, and Li Xian's division returned to Taozhou."
"It is also said that in the past few years, the public and private affairs have been in dire straits, the accumulation of the internal government has been exhausted, the land has been swept away, the state and county tax reserves, the supply has been exhausted, and hundreds of officials have been served, and they can only be continued, and the southern suburbs have been rewarded, but they have not been done for a long time."
"What else do you say that the ministers enter and say that Yu Jun, because he is tired of it, it is easy to do it; It is difficult to do anything to meet the tax of the party. He also asserted that when he saw the harm of the use of troops in the future, he would be sad and remorseful and blame the ministers left and right. said that he would be old and die, and seeing the emperor in the ground, there was also an excuse! ”
The more Zhao Ji spoke, the more angry he became, and turned his face to look at Su You: "There is a rumor in Beijing, saying that this article is written by Da Su, you are his elder, do you know about this matter?" ”
"Your Majesty is angry." Su You handed Zhao Ji a bowl of chicken soup with vermicelli: "The minister knows about this." ”
After speaking, he paused: "Because this is what the minister asked him to write." ”
Zhao Ji just took a sip, and this time he sprayed all the way to the bottom of the stargazing platform: "You, you, you...... Why? ”
Su You said: "Jun is not a secret loss of his country, we build Luocang and transfer a large amount of grain, these things must be completely covered up, and it is not very likely." ”
"Therefore, the minister asked His Majesty to supplement Xiongzhou with Xiangzhou and Mizhou with Liangzhejiang, and ordered Dasu to write this article, just to confuse the public."
"Your Majesty can refute Zhang Gong in a text, saying that the Great Song Dynasty's move to prepare grain is only for the relief of the people in the disaster area, and I want him not to think about it."
After speaking, he spread his hands: "We really don't need to say wrong, the grain in Xiongzhou and Mizhou is indeed used for this." ”
Zhao Ji shook his head with a smile: "However, there are only 300,000 stones in Hebei, and there are 700,000 stones in the first batch of Zhulu in Shaanxi." You're a liar. ”
Su You didn't carry the pot, and the thief smiled: "Only qualitative and not quantitative, this is taught by Fan Deru, and the minister is just drawing a scoop according to the gourd." ”
Zhao Ji glanced at him: "The Su family is famous for their wild manners, and they have so many thoughts, so they should worry more about the Great Dynasty." ”
"This year, you are the head of the ministers, and you haven't experienced it a few times before, and the impeachment of the palace is out of honor, and even I can't protect you."
Speaking of this, Su You made a bitter face: "Otherwise, Your Majesty will spare me from this, I can still be a clan brother, this year's court meeting is not trivial, and the minister is really a little scared......"
Zhao Ji glared at him: "How can the order of class seniority be arbitrarily pushed?" What are you being a court celebrity? ”
Su You had no choice but to give up: "That minister...... After Nachen goes back, he will practice more......"
……
In December of the third year of Yuanfeng, Bianjing City was immersed in the urgent anticipation of a festival that was coming.
According to the grapevine, this year's New Year's excitement is amazing.
In the past December, the affairs of the yamen have basically stopped, and the officials often fish, and are dragged by their families to quietly go to the Wan surname to purchase New Year's goods.
At the end of the year, it is still the concentrated season for the government to ask for money, and the officials are busy reporting to the government, requesting the distribution of the money that has not been settled for a year, and the chief officials of the various yamen should start to worry about how to give their subordinates a little welfare.
If it is the Imperial Pharmacy, the inner library lacks these fat yamen, and the Chinese envoys will see the chickens, ducks, and fat fish to the yamen, and blatantly distribute dividends, so that the petty officials of the cold yamen grit their teeth and scold the dog officials.
Taichang Temple, the Ministry of Rites and other 10,000-year-old cold benches, looking forward to the stars and the moon and looking forward to having a big court ceremony every year, and then you can go to Kaifeng Mansion, the Imperial Pharmacy, the Third Division and other departments to help the bureau money. Officials of the two systems and above were named to rehearse the ceremony at the Ministry of Rites.
Especially those officials who have just gone to Beijing, they are not familiar with the doorways here, and not all of them are supported by old clan brothers who are proficient in rituals like Su Song.
The citizens of Kaifeng Mansion are happy, and the official government is the most lenient in this New Year's Festival, and some small mistakes, the street patrol class reprimanded a few words at most, and they dare not go to the yamen to receive them.
At the end of the year, there are cases that have to be stopped, and after the New Year, Kaifeng Mansion also wants political achievements.
If there are more than 70 elderly people in the family, widows and lonely people, the government will take care of one or two, send some millet rice, meet a kind-hearted mansion Yin, and even have oil and meat.
Speaking of this, I have to praise Xiao Su Tanhua, when he ruled Kaifeng Mansion, he gave salted eggs, bacon, and a small change made Xiao Su Tanhua's reputation in Kaifeng burst.
Where did the average Fu Yin want to get this? How can a poor family be willing to eat meat for a catty? But if you don't eat it for a long time, it will be bad, and if you want to marinate it, you have to buy another salt, right?
Xiao Su Tanhua's small changes, five catties of bacon, is enough for a poor family to eat for a year.
How to eat? I'll teach you a good one, sixteen taels is a catty, five catties is ninety taels, take one tael every ten days and cut it into pieces and sprinkle it on the rice and steam it together, this is even a meal of meat, isn't it?
In this way, eat three taels a month, three catties and six taels a year, and the remaining two catties can still be asked by the neighbors for the New Year, and there is no shame, and then the government should send meat again......
After the first year of visiting, Xiao Su Tanhua heard that the poor family ate meat like this, and her tears came down, and she immediately decided not to send bacon in the future, but oily meat!
Oily meat is said to be the practice of the Southwest Yi people, which is similar to bacon, but there is an additional process, that is, it is fried and soaked in the oil jar.
This kind of storage method is managed for three years, and the poor family has an extra benefit, that is, in addition to five catties of meat, there is also more than half a jar of oil!
However, Xiao Su Tanhua didn't let everyone remember his love, saying that this was all the grace of the Royal Charity Fund, but he was thicker than other Kaifeng Mansions, so that Lai could always come down.
Recently, there has been a big disturbance in Beijing, the little young master of the Su family and the eldest princess of the young master Yanbi have put a sheep to sleep with for the official family, and it is said that after waking up, you will find this sheep, and take a heavenly fire from the sun for the official family!
What do you use when you come down from the skyfire? It's not like you and me to boil water and barbecue meat, that's useful!
I don't know how to use it...... I know that I will accompany you to talk about this idle day, and you won't go to the official family to ask for money and food?
In short, I just ask you if the two young masters are powerful?!
You've got to be amazing, right? The official family is full of joy and is ready to reward the two young masters.
You know what? Hey, a royal history surnamed Xing is so short-sighted, and he played the two little masters! What to say about tempting the official family with KitKat, and saying that the two young masters are too young to enter the official career and should not be rewarded!
So Grandpa Guo was stunned and resigned from the reward of the little master of the flat jar, and only let the young master Yanbi receive it alone. If you want me to say, he shouldn't drink the water from the tap well on the street side of Kaifeng Mansion, isn't this also the KitKat of Tanhualang's family?!
If you don't have the ability of two young masters, you can't see the good of others! Impeaching a child under the age of ten, he Xing Yushi is really willing to shame his old donkey face!
