Is this pork?

Is it not just Li Zhen's question, but also the question shared by the other three ministers?

Although they had never eaten pork, they all knew that pork was sour, sour and unpalatable. But why is the pork in front of me not a little sour or sour, and it is fat but not greasy when bitten down, which is better than the beef and mutton they eat.

Several people looked at each other, and they all found the surprise in each other's eyes, although they did not open their mouths to express their opinions, but their non-stop action of putting down chopsticks proved that this braised pork was delicious.

"Everyone, Aiqing, this braised pork is okay, right? I don't cook much, so I don't have a good grasp of the taste. Seeing that several ministers were eating deliciously, Li Ye asked with a smile.

Li Zhirou hurriedly said, "The ministers can eat the braised pork cooked by His Majesty himself, which is really a blessing for three lives." And this braised pork is fat but not greasy, which can be called a treasure. ”

"His Royal Highness King Xue has a point, but His Majesty is the king of a country, and it is better to do less about cooking, so as not to spread it and damage His Majesty's reputation.

The so-called gentleman is far away from cooking, His Majesty's words and deeds are related to the face of the court, and he must be cautious. Liu Chongwang, the servant of the door, couldn't help but persuade.

"Liu Aiqing's words are a little biased. 'Gentleman's Far Kitchen' comes from "Mencius's "Liang Hui Wang Chapter Sentences", the original text is that the gentleman is to the beast, see its life, and can't bear to see its death; Hearing its voice, I can't bear to eat its flesh. It is a gentleman who cooks far away.

According to Mencius, 'a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen', not that gentlemen and dignified men who do great things should stay away from the kitchen, but that they should keep a benevolent heart.

Liu Aiqing, I can understand your original intention. However, for the works of these sages, they cannot be taken out of context, otherwise the meaning will be completely different. Liu Aiqing, what do you think? Li Ye looked at Liu Chongwang.

The emperor's words made Liu Chongwang a little embarrassed, but he didn't expect that he wanted to persuade the emperor to stay away from the kitchen, but he didn't expect to be educated.

He was also a Jinshi more than ten years ago, and he was also very familiar with "Mencius", but he didn't expect to be educated by a person in his early twenties in front of several other ministers.

Of the four ministers present, his position was the most awkward.

Although he is the left servant of Shangshu and the servant of the door, he was also the prime minister before, but he, the 'prime minister', is even Li

Ye, the new emperor's decision-making circle, did not enter.

In the first cabinet, Du Rangneng, the right servant of the Shangshu and the servant of the Chinese book, all entered, but he was also the prime minister but did not enter, which shows that his status in front of the new emperor is not high.

Li Zhirou is different, he is Zong Zhengqing, and his seniority is too high, as long as he is honest and doesn't worry about what he shouldn't worry about, no matter who becomes the emperor, he will not treat him badly. What's more, Li Ye also attaches great importance to the clan now, and can't help but let the clan lead the troops, and also let the children of the clan enter the Chongwen Hall to study.

Liu Chongwang smiled embarrassedly but losing face, "What Your Majesty said is that the minister is a little biased. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is a little curious, although the minister has not eaten the pork before, but he also knows that it is sour and sassy, I don't know how Your Majesty got rid of the peculiar smell in this pork?" Li Zhen said curiously.

"It's very simple, the pork of this braised pork is not the same as the one you have heard, this kind of pork was castrated in childhood, so the pork does not have that sour taste, and the latter method is unique, this is the pork you just eat." Li Ye explained.

Everyone suddenly realized, but there were still many doubts in their hearts, Li Zhirou couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, although this pork has no sour taste, after all, it is still a lowly thing in the eyes of everyone, why does Your Majesty bother with this pork." ”

Li Ye smiled, "It seems that Zong Zhengqing still doesn't know the significance of this pork to ordinary people." ”

Although Li Zhirou is relatively low-key in the clan, he is a royal nobleman after all, so naturally he has not experienced the life of the people, and he will not realize that the sour taste of pork has removed the meaning of the people.

"Your Majesty, the minister probably understands why Your Majesty did this." Li Zhen on the side said confidently.

"Really? Li Aiqing will talk about it, and I will listen to you. Li Ye said with a smile.

Li Zhen arched his hand and began to explain, "For this pork, the minister has understood, this thing used to have a relatively heavy sour taste, so it was not loved by large families, and the people who ate it were generally ordinary people and slaves who couldn't afford to eat beef and mutton.

It is also for this reason that the price of pork has been low.

After His Majesty improved the method of raising pork, the sour smell of pork was removed, and now His Majesty personally took the lead in eating pork.

In this way, the price of pork is bound to rise, and for ordinary people, the income of the family will be more, and life will be better.

Before, the minister always thought that His Majesty was not doing his job, but now when he looked at it, the minister knew that the minister's wrong body was incomplete.

The minister was stupid before, and he did not understand His Majesty's true intentions, which led to a misunderstanding of His Majesty. Now it seems that what His Majesty has done is really for the ordinary people of the world, and this is the act of a saint! ”

After speaking, Li Zhen bowed deeply to Li Ye.

Li Zhen's use made several other people suddenly realize, and then they understood why the emperor did this, which was very different from the emperor they knew before.

Fortunately, they are not people who do not admit their mistakes, let alone in front of the emperor.

"The ministers are stupid, I hope Your Majesty will forgive your sins!"

"Let's get up, this matter is really accidental to learn from the people below, the credit is not mine, but I just did a promotion. And Zhongqing is from a big family, so he doesn't mind this pork, and I think other people will slowly develop the habit of eating pork, but this also requires Zhongqing to play a leading role. ”

There is also a reason why these people were brought in. Li Zhirou represents the clan, Du Rangneng is from the Jingzhao Du family, and Liu Chongwang is not from an ordinary family, and the selection of these people is based on Li Ye's plan, and if they take the lead, they can influence many people.

"Your Ministers obey!"

As soon as a few people heard it, they knew that they couldn't run away, to be honest, even if the pork didn't have the sour taste before, they would be very mindful, but mind it, the emperor took the lead in eating, did they dare to come out and disagree?

It seems that pork has to be eaten on some occasions and made for the emperor to see.

sp; Seeing the reluctant statements of several people, Li Ye was not unhappy, and he also knew that it was not easy to change these people's bad views on pork for a while.

However, everything must be thought about on the good side, even if it can't be changed in a year or two, it can also subtly change the world's prejudice against pork through some appropriate guidance. Of course, the new pork breeding method must be promoted first, and this matter is estimated to be handed over to the household department.

Strictly speaking, at this time, the household department did not care about agriculture.

The so-called six ministries are also related to agriculture, so this matter can only be handed over to the household department.

Just when Li Ye took the lead in demonstrating how to eat pork, there was a relatively strange person at the scene, at least a few people present had never seen it, and even Li Zhen had only seen a portrait, not a real person.

Although they didn't know who this was, Li Zhirou and the others didn't ask much, but left directly.

This person is not a bystander, but a Fu Cunju.

At this time, he naturally knew the identity of the young man in brocade in front of him. He really didn't expect that he would be summoned by the emperor, and he didn't expect this emperor to actually eat pork.

Naturally, he has never eaten pork, because his father is a general in Chenzhou, and he is not an ordinary family. However, he knew about pork, and their descendants ate this kind of lowly meat, but he didn't expect the emperor to eat this meat too.

He also heard the other party's words not far away, and he was also a little shocked in his heart. Just say that it is for the sake of the people, it means that it is enough to be a Ming Jun, do you think Zhu Wen and Li Keyong will consider this for the people?

Even Zhu Wen, who used to be a pig killer, said that he would improve the breeding method of pork and take the lead in eating pork?

It is estimated that the other party has not eaten pork for many years.

And the little emperor in front of him is different, the other party is not from a poor family, he was born a prince, and he doesn't know the suffering of the people, but he can do this, which makes him very shocked.

Just when he was in a daze, the ministers who were around the emperor also began to leave, although he didn't know the identities of these people, but he also knew that he couldn't offend, so he also saluted respectfully, which was considered to leave a good impression.

Just as he had finished saluting, there was a sound in his ears that let him pass, and the emperor waved over there, and the soldiers of the Forbidden Army beside him motioned for him to follow the other party.

"You're Fu Cunxian?"

Looking at the man with some clear eyebrows in front of him, Li Ye was a little surprised, no wonder the other party's granddaughter can become the queen, if he looks too bad, his granddaughter will definitely be affected. If you don't look at the calloon on the other party's hand and change into a literati costume, maybe no one thinks that he is a fierce general who has fought on the battlefield for many years.
