Li Xian finally won Li Yu once, and knocked away two large carriages of good wine from Li Yu, and the large wine cellar buried deep in the mansion was emptied by one-third.

"Hey, the older the liquor, the more mellow and fragrant it is, I wanted to hide it for ten or eight years, and then take it out for sale or reward the virtuous generals under his command It is a good choice, this time it is better than one-third."

Li Yu looked at the empty place of the wine cellar with a sad expression.

When he returned to his dormitory, Li Yu smelled a particularly mellow fragrance wafting from a distance, which immediately made people appetite. Just by this rich mellow aroma, you know that the taste of the cooked chicken soup is absolutely a must.

Seeing Li Yu, the faces of the women who had been waiting for a long time were happy, and Mei'er rushed over to grab Li Yu's arm, and her little mouth couldn't stop

"Jun Xun, you don't know, the dart riding general who has been raised for five or six years is hot, the taste is really delicious, taste it, the fragrance can not be dispersed between the mouth and tongue for a long time, and the aftertaste is long......"

"Then I'll have to try it."

Li Yu had already been talking and couldn't wait to sit down at the table.

Yang Huanniang scooped out a small bowl of chicken soup from the can, scooped Li Yu's favorite chicken wings into the bowl, because it was very hot not long after it came out of the pot, and intimately helped Li Yu blow it before putting it in front of Li Yu.

Seeing that Li Yu picked up the spoon and was about to take a big gulp of soup, Yang Huanniang had to remind: "Don't be in a hurry, be careful of burning your tongue." ”

"With the intimate Sister Slow Niang here, how can you bear to see Brother Yu burning his tongue?"

Li Yu said with a wicked smile.

"Naughty."

Li Yu scooped a spoonful and drank it carefully into his mouth, trembling all over, an indescribable fragrance rippling between his lips and teeth, and the feeling of deliciousness made people clear. Swallowing the hot juice into the abdomen, the fresh fragrance in the mouth still can't be dispersed for a long time, and there is a faint medicinal fragrance of Codonopsis astragalus, mixed with the fresh and unique taste of chicken, and the whole body is suddenly full of energy.

"It's worthy of being a dart riding general who has been eating and drinking for six years, and such a delicious and smooth meat is worth the cost I spent on it."

Li Yu sighed with emotion, it seems that if you want the chicken to be delicious, you have to take a little longer like raising a dart and riding general, and feed some fresh herbs every day in terms of diet, so that the meat can be delicious and delicious, and the soup cooked out is even more mellow.

"Sister Slow Niang, Xin'er, Xing'er, Mei'er, don't look at me, divide this can of soup together......"

Seeing that the four girls didn't move their chopsticks to look at him, Li Yu, who only cared about eating by himself, greeted him with some embarrassment. In private, Li Yu is very easy-going with people close to Yang Huanniang and Xin'er, and he is willing to share good things with them, after all, he can't experience the happiness of being alone.

The five of them sat around a round table like a family and ate with relish, and from time to time there was the sound of laughter between Li Yu and the four girls.

……

When the sky is bright, the bell of Chang'an City rings, marking the end of the night ban.

Li Yu put on his court clothes under Xin'er's service, and rode out of the mansion after eating a bowl of dumplings, followed by six battle-hardened guards.

Walk out of Yongxingfang through the cross street and join the ranks of the pilgrims on Danfengmen Street.

On the way, I met a group of officials, big and small, and when they saw that it was Li Yu, the king of Yan, they all grabbed the reins and greeted Li Yu, and Li Yu also returned the salute one by one.

Most of the officials in the Beijing Dynasty were the lords and adjutants of the three provinces and six ministries, and they were definitely the first to know about the events in the Tang Dynasty and the courts.

Along the way, Li Yu talked with them as he walked, and learned what happened in the DPRK and China that he didn't know during the year he was not in Beijing.

Some inquiries are just trivial matters, or so-called major matters in the DPRK and China that are not involved and that Li Yu does not care about.

Of course, the most important event in the DPRK at the moment is to prepare for the prince's wedding, which is a great event. The news of the prince's upcoming wedding has long been reported by the Ministry of Rites to the various states, and for this reason, there have been many foreign faces in Chang'an recently.

Even Tubo, who was at war with the Tang Dynasty in Hexi, Longyou, and Anxi, heard that the prince was about to get married, and sent envoys to Chang'an with generous gifts to congratulate them. Not to mention the Turkic tribes that have been subjugated for decades and have not yet developed a rebellious heart.

The leaders of the tribes came to Chang'an early to open their eyes with the titles of governor and assassin given to them by the Tang Dynasty, to see what this rich Chang'an city looks like, and to enjoy the life that rich people should enjoy.

In the prairie, although they are noble tribal leaders, they have the power to kill and seize the livelihood of their own people, and they have a lot of wealth. But on the grassland, they have money and no place to spend it, how can they experience the feeling of being rich, only in a world of flowers like Chang'an City, can they show their wealth.

Although compared to the powerful and wealthy merchants of the Tang Dynasty, the wealth of these Turkic tribal leaders is not worth mentioning.

In the conversation with the officials, I learned that with the entry of the Turkic chiefs into Beijing, there were a number of local tyrants in Chang'an City who bought things without bargaining and bought them in large quantities, and because of their arrival, the prices in Chang'an City have risen a little in recent days.

Although the salaries of the middle and low-level officials in the Tang Dynasty are the highest in all Chinese dynasties (higher than those of civil servants in later generations), their families rely on this official income to survive, and they are still quite concerned about the rise and fall of prices.

"Your Highness, you have just returned to Beijing, I don't know how arrogant those Hu leaders are, go to Mingyue Xuan to live in the most expensive room, go to Xiaoyao to drink the most expensive and strong wine, eat the most expensive dishes, and find the Hu girls who accompany the wine are all specially selected to ask for the highest price, even if they don't know anything about music and dance......"

After getting acquainted with Li Yu, an official immediately described to him the behavior of those Turkic leaders who spent money lavishly in Chang'an City, and there was inevitably envy, jealousy and hatred between his eyebrows.

After all, our dignified officials in the country and Beijing are not as good as a group of Hu leaders who have been beaten down to teach them to be people, how can we be embarrassed!

This is the inner confession of a six-rank Beijing official.

"It's not just mud."

Other officials hurriedly added: "You didn't go to the Xinxiang Palace to take a look, you almost bought all the jewels in the jewelry shop in the Xinxiang Palace, and a certain lady couldn't buy a pearl-inlaid hosta yesterday, all of which were picked by the Hu people and left small and not very good-looking jewelry." All kinds of animal skin coats and cloaks produced by Anton were bought out by the Hu people. Perfumes and spirits have always been hot sellers in Hu Ren, and this time they went to Chang'an, and they bought and hoarded them in large quantities......"

"Hahaha, if you want to say that the Hu people buy goods, the most lively is the auction house of the Xinxiang Palace, last night the Hu people almost fought in order to compete for a huge Dongzhu in the auction, and shouted cruel words to each other, to return to the grassland to wash away today's shame by force. What shame? To put it bluntly, there is no more money than others, and I was ridiculed by the other party who knew the family background, and I couldn't swallow that breath. ”

Everyone laughed, and Li Yu thought happily in his heart, if only there were more contradictions between the Turkic tribes because of such problems. In this way, after seven or eight years, it will be difficult for them to unite to rebel against the Tang Dynasty.
