0323 Celebration Banquet
"Your Majesty!"
At this time, a young eunuch with a gentle appearance and an extraordinary temperament stepped forward and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, but your head hurts again?" The slave asks you to boil a bowl of walnut dew! ”
The little eunuch's name was Zhao Dagou.
Although Zhao Dagou is young, he is very stable and old-fashioned, and he does not like to socialize, which makes Chongzhen very appreciative.
Since Wang Chengen's accident, Chongzhen no longer dared to put him by his side, but rewarded Wang Chengen with a large sum of money and let him retire early to enjoy it.
At this time, Zhao Dagou was born, took Wang Chengen's position, and became the hottest eunuch in the palace.
I don't know how many ministers outside want to hook up with Zhao Dagou, but they can't get it when they ask him to see it.
This made Chongzhen appreciate it very much, as the personal eunuch next to the emperor, he had to have less contact with the foreign ministers and do his own internal affairs.
Of course......
The name Zhao Dagou is really difficult to get into the hall of elegance, he was just a little eunuch before, and it doesn't matter if he uses this name.
Right now......
As the great eunuch beside His Majesty the Emperor, it would be a bit out of place to use this kind of cheap name, so Chongzhen personally gave the imperial name......
Zhao Dacheng.
Chongzhen waved his hand and said lightly, "No, I'm just worried about national affairs and people's livelihood, so I have a headache. ”
Zhao Dacheng was in awe, and he secretly thought: Fortunately, I'm Zhao Dagou, oh no~ I, Zhao Dacheng, can serve such a Ming Jun in this life, it's really a blessing to cultivate for eight lifetimes.
Chongzhen held his forehead with his hand and casually flipped through the folds, which were all newly presented by the ministers.
The ministers made all kinds of sycophantic remarks on the matter of exterminating locusts, and directly touted this Chongzhen Emperor as a king like Yao Shunyu.
Erzhou Yanguan's recital is even more explicit, look at what they say.
The minister's words: The virtue of the saint is connected with heaven and earth, and the virtue of His Majesty touches the heavens and the earth, and now the locusts have been destroyed, thanks to the grace of the saints.
The minister heard: the small people of the capital take the locusts as the dry shrimp, the delicacy is incomparable, a pound of dry shrimp can be worth several catties of rice, and now thousands of dry shrimp are piled up in the major warehouses, I don't know how much it is worth?
This is a blessing for the country and the people.
Fang Tian rained locusts in Daming!
Chencheng is happy and happy, and he is the first to be stunned!
Chongzhen looked at the performance of the second Zhou Yanguan, and his angry teeth were itchy, how much money did Nima's ~ spend on his official position, and you still said that it is a good thing to have a locust plague?
These thin locusts, you still say how much they are worth, and they are delicious? It's fucked up.
is really a clean talker who doesn't eat the fireworks of the world.
Chongzhen put aside the recitals of the second Zhou Yanguan, and looked at the recitals of other ministers, without exception, sycophants.
Chongzhen pondered for a moment, and said to Zhao Dacheng, "Spread my will, order the official kitchen to set up a banquet, and I want to reward the ministers to celebrate the victory of the locust extermination." ”
……
His Majesty the Emperor wants to hold a banquet?
These ministers are all happy.
Since His Majesty kicked Guanglu Temple, the dishes in the official kitchen have become more and more delicious, even the simplest cabbage and radish can give the whole feeling of delicacies from the mountains and seas.
Therefore, these ministers have also gone from being afraid of going to the emperor's banquet in the past to looking forward to going to the banquet now.
On this day, the main hall was filled with fragrance, and the ministers were lined up on both sides, sitting upright.
The status of the ministers of the Ming Dynasty was still very high, at least they sat and ate with the emperor, instead of kneeling and kowtowing at every turn.
"Ladies and gentlemen."
Chongzhen Zhengse said, "Since I succeeded to the throne, there have been natural and man-made disasters in the country, and I just killed the anti-thief Li Zicheng last year, and there is a locust plague this year, I am really worried!"
I am still young, but I have to govern such a big country, sometimes I really feel that my heart is haggard, but fortunately......
With the assistance of the ministers, I and the Ming Dynasty have been able to turn the crisis into peace again and again, and I thank you. ”
Chongzhen's words were sincere, which made these ministers very useful, and they all said that this was all the credit of His Majesty the Emperor.
The Ming Dynasty passed through the Huang Taiji Pass, Lin Dan Khan committed the border, the anti-thieves were rampant, the scourge of black incense, and the locusts were raging, but it was still at the peak of national strength, and the government was harmonious.
All this is because Your Majesty is benevolent and kind, and God has blessed you with peace!
Look at how well these ministers can talk, they used to spray me as a faint king + tyrant + greedy for money.
Now one by one, the sycophants are slipping, anyway, good or bad, it's just one of their mouths.
This time to exterminate locusts, how much money did I spend on food and official positions, and I suppressed this locust plague that covered the sky and the sun, and the result was ...... People are fluttering, and the peace of God's gift.
Chongzhen deliberately sighed and said, "Da Ming is indeed a political and harmonious person now, but I still have one thing to worry about. ”
Second Zhou Yanguan hurriedly stepped forward, bowed down and said, "I don't know why Your Majesty is worried?" ”
Chongzhen smiled, "The locust plague has been extinguished, but I have accumulated a large number of locust corpses in my warehouse, and I don't know what to do with these things?" ”
Second Zhou Yanguan breathed a sigh of relief, what did they think was the matter, wasn't it just the corpse of a locust?
Erzhou Yanguan's voice, "I heard that locusts are also called dry shrimp, and all major restaurants in the capital will buy this thing, the taste is extremely delicious, and the price is also good, Your Majesty, these locusts are silver!" ”
Silver?
What kind of wool is silver?
Chongzhen smiled, "Well, I also think that locusts are the supreme delicacy, and I will feast on locusts today, and I will not get drunk with you." ”
The voice did not fall......
One by one, the beautiful little palace maids walked up with porcelain plates, and the palace maids placed these porcelain plates in front of the ministers.
Lifting the lid, the delicacies on the plate are finally revealed, Nima's ~
It's actually a big locust.
Don't look at the ministers boasting about how delicious this locust is, how delicious it is, and how high the price is.
But they don't really eat it, anyway, they just move their mouths to make His Majesty happy, so why not?
The ministers were dumbfounded when they looked at the locust dishes in front of them, they didn't expect that His Majesty was really embarrassed to serve this thing?
Chongzhen said with a smile, "Hurry up and move your chopsticks, these are supreme delicacies, and if you sell them in a restaurant in the capital, you will have to pay a lot of money for a plate!" ”
After that......
Chongzhen slowly picked up a chopstick locust, and feasted on it, the taste was sweet and silky, and it was delicious.
The ministers looked at the locusts in front of them, and these locusts stared at each other, as if they were dead, so mad.
Erzhou Yanguan sighed.
Just now they said that this locust is very delicious, and now they are too embarrassed not to use their chopsticks?
The two reluctantly took a locust, fed it to their mouths in disgust, and took a bite...... Crunch.
Chew it, lie in the groove ~ full of earthy smell.
