Chapter 93: Emperor Taishang's Birthday Banquet

Li Shimin was a little jealous.

He also rewarded Cui Shaoqing with a lot of things, why didn't Cui Shaoqing miss it at all?

However, Li Shimin quickly calmed down again.

He hasn't seen Cui Shaoqing yet, so how can Cui Shaoqing give it to him?

Moreover, he, Li Shimin, as the Son of Heaven, can't be so unlucky.

He should consider the significance of this matter to the entire Datang.

In previous winters, vegetables were very expensive, and if you wanted to eat them, you had to transport them from the south.

But if Cui Shaoqing's vegetable greenhouse really works, then if it is promoted, the green vegetables will be able to enter thousands of households even in winter, right?

This is a good thing for them Datang.

The more Li Shimin thought about it, the more excited he felt.

"Lu Guogong, did Cui Shaoqing really get a vegetable greenhouse?"

Cheng Biting Jin said: "The minister didn't see it with his own eyes, but he was able to provide so many green vegetables, I think it's true." ”

Li Shimin sighed and said: "Since it is true, it is a good thing for my Datang, next year, my Datang will promote this vegetable greenhouse, this Cui Shaoqing is a capable person, if this matter can be done, I will reward him." ”

This time, Li Shimin didn't reward Cui Shaoqing first, but first asked Cui Shaoqing to find a way to promote this greenhouse, and when he promoted it, he would give Cui Shaoqing benefits, and obviously, he already had a hint.

If it is feasible, Cui Shaoqing is afraid that he will be promoted.

However, everyone tacitly understood this matter, so they didn't say anything.

After saying this, Li Shimin said again: "In a few days, it will be the birthday of the emperor, and then I will hold a banquet in the palace to entertain the ministers, and let Cui Shaoqing send some vegetables to the palace." ”

Li Shimin was embarrassed to ask for it, so he could only use this excuse.

As soon as Li Shimin said this, many officials in the court remembered that it would be the emperor's birthday in a few days.

At this time in previous years, Li Yuan's birthday was a very important thing, after all, Li Yuan was the Son of Heaven before, and everyone must attach importance to the birthday of the Son of Heaven.

However, now that Li Yuan has become the emperor and is under house arrest in the palace, everyone has more or less forgotten about him.

However, the ministers have forgotten a little, but Li Shimin has not forgotten, not only has he not forgotten, but he also feels that Li Yuan's birthday banquet should be held more beautifully this year. 、

In this way, his Li Shimin's infamy will not be too ugly.

Li Shimin said this, and Cheng Yanjin immediately responded.

Subsequently, Li Shimin said: "The birthday banquet of the Emperor Taishang, I am going to organize it in a big way, and I must satisfy the Emperor Taishang, that Aiqing is willing to take over this matter?" ”

Hearing this, everyone immediately understood what Li Shimin meant, but with so many officials in the DPRK and China, no one was willing to handle this matter.

Since Li Yuan was forced to abdicate and placed under house arrest in the palace, his temper has become a little irritable, and he is capricious, in case they don't do a good job, which makes Li Yuan angry, and even, he doesn't come to his birthday banquet directly, then isn't it very embarrassing, most of the people who handle this matter will also be punished, right?

Everyone doesn't have the confidence to do this well, so naturally they don't want to come forward.

Li Shimin was a little unhappy when he saw that no one in the court was willing to undertake this matter, and then looked at Pei Lin and said, "Pei Aiqing, how about you handle this matter?" ”

With so many officials in the DPRK and China, the one who has the best relationship with Li Yuan may belong to this Pei Lian.

In this way, if you want to say that you know Li Yuan best, there is only this Pei Lian, and there should be no problem in leaving this matter to him, and he can't refuse.

When Pei Lin heard this, his heart sank.

After the Xuanwumen Change, he Pei Lin quickly chose to surrender to Li Shimin, which should be regarded as a renegade in Li Yuan's opinion, right?

But Li Shimin doesn't particularly trust him, he is tantamount to saying that both sides are not pleasing to him.

If he refused, it would just give Li Shimin the opportunity to dispose of him.

He didn't care about this official position, but he had to think about them Hedong Pei Clan.

They Hedong Pei clan can't be destroyed in his hands.

After thinking about it for a while, Pei Lin hurriedly stood up and said, "The minister's decree." ”

After saying this, Li Shimin finally waved his hand and retreated.

-------------------

Wannian County Ya.

That afternoon, the snow continued unabated.

After Cui Shaoqing and the others were busy with official business, when they were about to leave, someone came to the palace.

It was still the eunuch named Ah Bao.

At this time, Po's attitude was very good.

"Cui Xiancheng, you are really good, you can grow vegetables in such a cold weather."

Cui Shaoqing smiled lightly and said, "My father-in-law praises me, I don't know what happened when my father-in-law is here?" ”

"In a few days, it is the birthday banquet of the Emperor Taishang, and the saint wants Cui Xiancheng to send some vegetables into the palace, as well as this vegetable greenhouse, which is very beneficial to the court and the people, and the saint said, if Cui Xiancheng can promote it, the saint is ready to reward you, Cui Xiancheng, although the saint did not say it explicitly, but it has the meaning of giving you a promotion."

For an official, a large part of his lifelong pursuit should be promotion, right?

This should be very tempting for Cui Shaoqing, and Cui Shaoqing really wants to be promoted.

However, he behaved very calmly and said: "As an official of the Tang Dynasty, it is my duty to consider the people, I will find a way to promote the vegetable greenhouse next year, and I will send someone to send the vegetables needed for the birthday banquet of the Emperor Taishang soon." ”

This year is definitely not good, he has to rely on this to make money, and at this time this year, it is a little late to plant vegetables, and it will be more than a month before the New Year, and the weather will slowly warm up after the New Year.

Seeing Cui Shaoqing say this, Ah Bao immediately breathed a sigh of relief, this Cui Shaoqing knows current affairs, and he also saves some trouble on his tongue.

"Okay, okay, by the way, the birthday banquet of the Emperor Taishang, the saint is ready to hold a big event, and when the time comes, you Wannian County and county government here, also choose some people to participate, the saint said, to be lively."

After Ah Bao said this, he didn't continue to stay in Wannian County, and hurried to the palace again, the snow was very heavy, if he was fast, he would be able to rush back before dark.

And after Ah Bao left, Chen Gu and the others immediately became excited.

"This time it's really stained with Cui Xiancheng's light, the birthday of the emperor in previous years, but we didn't have anything to do."

"That's it, that's it, we were lucky enough to participate this year, which is really a lifetime of glory."

"We are the first to participate as county officials."

“…………”

Before, Li Yuan's birthday, those who could participate were all senior members of the third rank or above, so what chance did other officials have?

This year, Chen Gu can go, and they are naturally excited.

"Cui Xiancheng, you have to prepare a gift, if the emperor likes it, it will be indispensable for your benefits."

Everyone knows that although Chen Gu is the county order, Cui Shaoqing is the protagonist.
