Chapter 69: A Good Thing

From the first meal, Li Jing fell in love with the food of King Xu's mansion.

And as Li Yuanjia's most distinguished guest after coming to Luzhou, Li Jing's great name has also taken advantage of it, and the chef Yu Niang can be said to have spared no effort and really used a lot of real skills - four side dishes for breakfast, two staple foods and a bowl of porridge, all eight dishes and one soup at noon and evening, never the same!

After living in the Luzhou Government Office for three days, Li Jing suddenly felt that he had lived in vain for more than 60 years.

So although he was quite embarrassed, on the third night, the old man still opened his mouth and asked Li Yuanjia for more than a dozen dishes of "secret recipes", including his favorite fritters and xiaolongbao in the morning, as well as some hard dishes such as braised pork ribs and boiled beef, and cheekily asked for a few mouthfuls of the "original" iron pot of Xu Wangfu.

The blacksmiths of Chang'an really can't be so thin and round here.

After dinner on the third night, when the two were sitting on the Taishi chair and chatting, Li Jing stroked his long beard and couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, the king is the one who knows how to enjoy, Li has already begun to worry about returning to Chang'an, and he will never be able to eat the delicacies here from the king, I am afraid that the eclipse will be unpleasant!" ”

"Haha, Li Xianggong laughed."

His eyebrows trembled, and Li Yuanjia had already pursed the corners of his mouth at the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty in his heart.

Is this considered enjoyment?

It's just a few dozen dishes that Li Yuanjia knows how to do and then teaches Yu Niang, where is this? You must know that it has been nearly two years since he came to Luzhou, if he only made some stir-fried dishes for such a long time, then Li Yuanjia can really be reborn again.

It's just other things, Li Yuanjia didn't plan to let the guests see it.

Otherwise, let's not talk about anything else, just comparing the guest room where Li Jing lives with his own bedroom, I'm afraid it can make the old man's eyes widen and he can't close his mouth for a long time - that's really enjoyment!

It's just that Li Jing didn't know about these thoughts of his, and continued to smile: "And what makes Li even more admirable is that what the king has done has cost a lot, but he has never used Luzhou's financial resources and manpower...... To have such a history of thorns as the king is really a blessing for Luzhou and a blessing for the people! ”

What Li Jing said was not a kind word.

As an envoy personally appointed by the Tang Emperor, Li Jing certainly would not draw conclusions to the officials in Luzhou just by relying on the few people who asked after entering the city. Therefore, during the three days of visiting Li Yuanjia, Li Jing's subordinates traveled all over the city and suburbs of Luzhou, as well as the various counties to which they belonged, and had already come to a conclusion - it is decent, not much different from most other states and counties.

And about this King Xu......

Whether it is the officials under Luzhou or the ordinary people, their understanding of Li Yuanjia is almost zero, and even many people do not know about his existence, as if this King Xu is not in Luzhou at all.

This point made Li Jing quite appreciative.

Li Jing, who is still acting as the Duke of the Kingdom and will be renamed the Duke of Wei Guo in the future, will be a representative of the high-level self-defense of the Tang Dynasty in the future. Therefore, after seeing that the sixteen-year-old Li Yuanjia could endure loneliness so much, and never disturbed the people because of his own affairs, Li Jingfeida did not feel that the other party was not vibrant, but thought that Li Yuanjia had a stable temperament and could endure loneliness, and he had already put a checkmark on this King Xu in his heart!

The prince of the Tang Dynasty, shouldn't that be the case?

Especially the brothers of the current emperor, in Li Jing's opinion, they should be like Li Yuanjia, honest, prosperous and rich for a lifetime. Other things, such as Luzhou's political affairs or something, just leave it to other officials to do. Otherwise, why are the Shangzuo in other states such as Don't Drive and Changshi all decorations, basically the officials who support the elderly, and only the states where the prince is the assassin of the history, and the Shangzuo have real power?

So if you think about it, this little guy is kind of interesting!

“……”

Looking at Li Jing's look of admiration, the corners of Li Yuanjia's mouth twitched, and he really didn't know how to reply to this big guy.

This is the luck of Luzhou and the luck of the people?

According to the standards of later generations, Li Yuanjia is a assassin but almost cares about things, and he is an official who nests in the mansion every day to tinker with his own things, I am afraid that he will be scolded to death by the people directly, right? What the hell is out of the category of lazy politics, it's just idle dinner, right?

It's a pity that this is Datang, and he is Li Shimin's younger brother.

So after complaining secretly, Li Yuanjia smiled and said, "Hehe, Li Xianggong has a good reputation." Although this king is young, he also understands that when I was first established in the Tang Dynasty, the people need to recuperate......"

Li Jing was perfunctory on his lips, but in his heart, Li Yuanjia was already a little annoyed with this big guy.

For three days in a row, you have to accompany this big guy carefully.

It's exciting to talk to famous people in history, but it's just the first day. On the second day, Li Yuanjia felt a little bored, and on the third day, he began to get bored - he and this military bigwig didn't have any common language at all!

Li Yuanjia didn't understand the topics that the old man said at all, and he was not interested, but when he wanted to popularize some knowledge and leave some impressions on the court bosses, Li Jing did not react, and even faintly showed a trace of disdain - what the hell is the difference in the way and not premeditated, right?

If he could hear what he was thinking at this time, I am afraid that Li Jing would immediately smoke from the top of his head!

If it weren't for the emperor's special explanation, how could he have stayed in the Luzhou Government Office for three days, and accompanied a yellow-haired boy all day? If it weren't for wanting to judge some things with his own experience through this guy's words and deeds, Li Jing would have been in the mood to chat with Li Yuanjia for three days in a row?

The dignified right scholar shoots, watching the customs, is it really so idle?

But......

After getting along for the past three days, whether it was Li Yuanjia's own natural performance or Li Jing's side knocks through words, he gradually saw a fact clearly: "This Li Yuanjia is really indifferent by nature." ”

For government and military affairs, this King Xu has no interest - no matter how many times Li Jing tries hard, but as long as he talks about the way of being an official, or his own most proud art of war, Li Yuanjia is at most casually perfunctory, and he can soon see the obvious impatience in his eyes.

And when Li Jing took the initiative to talk about the situation in Chang'an City, as well as the appointment and dismissal of officials in various ministries, and the changes in the official positions and titles of the top bigwigs, this kid also looked indifferent, and he had a completely aloof attitude that had nothing to do with himself.

In addition, Li Jing also discovered one point, that is, although Li Yuanjia is not interested in officialdom and the art of war, he attaches great importance to food, and these things made by his own blacksmiths and carpenters, and it is easy to talk endlessly!

Without a doubt, this is a good thing!

……

Sorry, take a leave of absence.
