Chapter 681: Phoenix Hall of the Equality Temple
didn't wait for Yingji Kanpei to finish sighing, only to hear someone behind him whisper: "Lord Guan Bai, aren't you going in?" ”
Eagle Division Kanehei was startled, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Crown Prince Heein!
Crown Prince Hee-in was also dressed in ordinary civilian clothes, followed by several attendants, looking at him with a smile on their faces.
Eagle Si Kanpei was about to salute in surprise, but was stopped by Crown Prince Heein stretching out his hand and said, "Lord Guan Bai is exempt from salutation, this is not the place to salute." ”
Ying Si Jian Ping lowered his voice and said urgently: "How can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince easily make a mistake? Let the ministers protect His Highness. ”
Crown Prince Heein smiled: "I just came to walk around, and I didn't dare to work with Lord Guan Bai." ”
Ying Si Kanpei understood his intentions, hesitated again and again in his heart, and reluctantly said: "His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan and his wives and concubines are playing inside, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can just give him a guided tour." ”
Crown Prince Heein pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh? It's a coincidence, and in that case, I can't help but be the host. ”
Eagle Division and Ping immediately said: "His Majesty the Emperor ordered his ministers to secretly protect His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan are also very convenient for the ministers. ”
Crown Prince Xiren smiled and said, "Your Excellency Guan Bai, you have to work. Walking inside, Takaji Kanehei followed.
There are quite a lot of things about the Equality Temple, Cheng Yue took his wife and concubine to play around, and Masako and other Japanese beauties tried their best to explain to Cheng Yue, which was very enjoyable.
The people of the Equality House were surprised when they heard that Cheng Yue was in person, and immediately poured out of the nest and followed Cheng Yue to serve carefully.
After a while, Cheng Yue "happened to meet" many ministers in the court, and these people rushed forward to salute Cheng Yue. Some even pushed their daughters in front of Cheng Yue, and the purpose was not unclear.
If it comes, it will be safe, and Cheng Yue will not rush people. but they talked with them merrily. The beauty of Rou Niang, Zhang Shufang, Ye Yiyi and other concubines amazed the ministers, and also made those women ashamed of themselves and quietly retreated.
Cheng Yue came to the core of the Equality Courtyard - Phoenix Hall, which faces the water on three sides, is not big, and only has a few small buildings with fine carvings. The generals and ministers of the protector army all entered with it, plus Cheng Yue's wife and concubine and the people of the Equality Courtyard, which suddenly crowded the inside and outside of the Phoenix Hall, which was a momentary prosperity.
The Phoenix Hall enshrines the seated statue of Amitabha Buddha, and the surrounding furnishings and murals are also extremely exquisite, and the people of the Equality Temple are explaining softly in Cheng Yue, and suddenly hear the footsteps outside the hall together, and someone shouted: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Heein has arrived, avoid!" ”
The ministers around Cheng Yue and the people of the Equality House hurriedly flashed to the side and knelt on the ground. Make way for Crown Prince Hee-in to pass.
Cheng Yue frowned slightly, looked out of the hall, and saw that Crown Prince Xiren and Yingji Jianping came together, with a smile on their faces.
All the beauties also knelt aside, but Cheng Yue did not move. Cheng Yue didn't move, and his wives and concubines didn't move, just waiting for Crown Prince Xiren and Yingji Jianping to step forward.
Crown Prince Heein walked closer. Seeing that Cheng Yue's face was uncertain, he was anxious. Xian Shili said: "His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan, I heard that His Highness came here to visit, and I didn't think I could do anything, so I wanted to give His Highness a guided tour, so I took the liberty to come." ”
Eagle Si Kanpei also hurriedly saluted and said, "Lord, the minister is ordered to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xiren. Don't dare to disturb the prince. ”
Cheng Yue sighed and said, "I made it clear yesterday, I just want to calm down, it's a good thing that you want to guide me, but it's so fanfare." Why? ”
Crown Prince Xiren was embarrassed, so he had to say: "The prince's lesson is that I didn't think it through. "Although Crown Prince Heein is not the emperor, he is also the crown prince, and it is very rare for him to apologize in public.
Cheng Yue saw that he was making amends, and he didn't think much of himself, and said, "Okay, it's okay for you to come, come and walk around with me." ”
Crown Prince Heein hurriedly nodded in thanks, but his eyes were so attracted by Rou Niang that he was reluctant to turn away.
Ying Si Jian Ping was afraid that Crown Prince Xiren's gaffe would be seen by Cheng Yue, so he hurriedly cut off his gaze with his body and said, "Lord, the minister is also guilty of daring to come." ”
Cheng Yue saw that he was witty, smiled, and said, "Lord Guan Bai came by order, what is the crime?" Get up. ”
Takaji Kanhei defended Emperor Kameyama a few more words before getting up.
Crown Prince Xiren came prepared, and Phoenix Hall was a place he was familiar with, so he took the opportunity to explain it to Cheng Yue, and he spoke the way of the Tao, no worse than the people of Equality Temple.
Cheng Yue stayed at the Equality Courtyard at noon, but he ate the food he brought, and distributed it to the crown prince Xiren and a minister, and there was refined dried meat in it. From the crown prince to ordinary officials, everyone ate without hesitation and praised it, as if the meat ban never existed, and of course, the dried meat was really delicious.
The seating of the meal is also particular, Cheng Yue sits on it, on both sides are the three princesses, the crown prince of Xiren accompanies him, and Cheng Yue's concubine room sits behind the ministers.
After a simple meal, Cheng Yue did not continue to watch the Phoenix Hall, but talked with the ministers about the poverty he saw along the way, and compared with the wealth of the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty could even afford to wear silk shoes, which caused the ministers to sigh and strengthen their will to change the law.
Because he had to return at night, Cheng Yue didn't want to stay for a long time, so he returned to the palace with Crown Prince Xiren and his ministers.
Cheng Yue's chef bought out almost all the ingredients available in Kyoto, causing prices in Kyoto to rise by more than 30%, and the market was booming, and the merchants were especially happy that their business was better than before the war.
That night, Cheng Yue set up a banquet in the cool hall, and the palace was unprecedented, and all the monarchs and ministers arrived.
Compared with the shabby and boring Japanese feast, the food prepared by Cheng Yue for everyone is much more colorful. Even if they were constrained by the ingredients, the Japanese monarchs were still stunned by the variety of dishes that were full of color, flavor and flavor.
All Japanese people have never seen so many dishes in their lives!
Cheng Yue specially ordered Shi Song to lead people to hunt and buy in the suburbs of Kyoto, and obtained a total of thirteen wild boars, seven deer, and a number of pheasants and hares. Since the Japanese rarely hunt, there is a lot of prey.
With meat, the skills of the cooks can be brought into play, and when the yellow and clear barbecue is served, the aroma emitted attracts most vegetarian Japanese monarchs and ministers on weekdays to salivate!
Cheng Yue had ordered the abolition of the ban on meat, and the Japanese monarch and ministers intended to curry favor with Cheng Yue, so no one at the banquet refused these tempting barbecues.
After Cheng Yue toasted, he feasted on the top and bottom!
Emperor Goyuta was young, and he couldn't help it. took the lead in picking up a piece of barbecue, glanced at Cheng Yue and Emperor Guishan, and decisively put it in his mouth. After chewing a few times, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he blurted out: "It's delicious!" It's so fragrant. He turned his head to the Emperor of Guishan and said, "Father, the barbecue of His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan is much better than the roast pork we ate last time." (To be continued.) )
