There is no banquet in the world, although the procedure of the state banquet is lengthy, after all, there is a time when the song is over, the emperor returns to the palace on the palace of Wanli, and the ministers and officials are thankful for the withdrawal, and the big court meeting and the banquet on this day will come to an end, and then there will be a next time to wait until today next year.

It has always been bittersweet and uneven, when Qin Lin was enjoying the sumptuous food at the banquet, Hong Yangshan, Lu Yuanzhi, Niu Dali and others squatted in the shelter outside the room on the south side of the noon gate, chatting and farting with the entourage brought by the adults, and waited for two hours.

Thanks to Hong's command of the old fritter to find out the affairs of the capital, he knew that Qin Lin and the ministers were attending the state banquet, and they couldn't get out for a while, so they went out from Xibianmen, where a restaurant was for the courtiers and their entourage, and bought some porridge and baked cakes, and brought them to Lu and Niu to eat.

Until they saw a large group of scarlet-robed ministers coming out of the left and right doors on both sides of the noon gate from a distance, the three of them hurriedly greeted them together, but among these officials were Zhang Juzheng, Xu Wenbi, Li Wei, etc., but there was no Qin chief they had to wait for.

Liu Shouyou, the governor of Jinyi, was also in the crowd, and Hong, Lu, and Niu were always the official schools under his command, so they made a court visit to him together, and when Liu Dudu answered, he asked him why Chief Qin hadn't come out yet.

Liu Shou said with a smile: "General Qin's holy family Youlong, I'm afraid I will have to wait for a while to come out." With that, he flicked the sleeves of his robe and walked away without looking back.

Hong Yangshan knew that Liu Shouyou was not a good person, and he couldn't hear whether he was telling the truth or the opposite, so he was worried for a while, worried about his own parents.

"Hey, Lao Hong, you're worried" Lu Fatzi waved his fat hand, and his tone was very determined: "Our Chief Qin has seven hearts and eyes and nine lives, and he will never suffer." ”

Hong Yangshan replied yes, but his heart was still uneasy, as the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and the things in this palace are not so simple!

After waiting for a while, Niu Dali shouted first: "Haha, isn't that our Chief Qin?" ”

The fat man also smiled very brightly: "Hey, there is also a little eunuch carrying things and following behind, isn't it a reward of gold and silver treasures?" ”

Qin Lin was full of food and drink, staggered from the palace, and all the officials went home empty-handed, but he couldn't eat and walked around, and deceived a table of imperial banquets from the palace, and remade the delicacies from Guanglu Temple, and seven or eight little eunuchs carried food boxes to send them back for him.

Lu Yuanzhi's voice was loud, Qin Lin heard it from afar, and approached and punched his chest full of fat: "Ramming!" Do you know the bounty and the silver treasure? ”

The fat man cried with a sad face: "Brother Qin, you are still pounding my chest.?" You eat the royal banquet in the palace, just called the full man does not know that the hungry man is hungry, our brother squatted outside the room for most of the day, only ate some gruel, baked cakes, and was already hungry, if you smash me down with this punch, I won't be able to get up! ”

Qin Lin raised his eyebrows: "Haha, fat man, you also want to eat the imperial banquet?" ”

The fat man nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice, and then the fat face was pulled into a bitter gourd, even Qin Lin himself was the commander, and the fat man was just a trial hundred, if he wanted to be promoted to the military governor or above, he had to wait until the Year of the Monkey?

Qin Lin smiled and pointed to the group of little eunuchs behind him: "Pigs!" Keep your eyes open to what they are mentioning? ”

The food boxes in the palace are all extremely delicate lacquerware, and the fat man didn't recognize it, but at this time, when he took a closer look and recognized it as a food box, his little eyes immediately widened.

"Your Majesty has given me another royal feast!" Qin Lin laughed and patted the fat man and beckoned Hong Yangshan and Niu Dali: "Let's go, let's take it home and rub it again!" ”

The fat man smiled so much that his mouth was crooked, looking at him like that, his saliva flowed out three feet long, and he said vigorously: "Brother Qin, you are closer than my own brother......

In the minds of ordinary people, the emperor is definitely the true son of heaven, the emperor's imperial banquet is definitely comparable to the dragon liver and phoenix in the heavenly palace, Niu Dali is also very happy, and feels that Chief Qin is really lucky.

After all, Lu and Niu don't have much knowledge in the officialdom, but Hong Yangshan knows that the Ming Emperor does often give his courtiers imperial food, but it is often a roast duck, two steamed fish or something, and the whole imperial banquet is given on New Year's Day, which is not an ordinary favor!

If Zhang Juzheng and Xu Wenbi were big officials, and they were replaced by other third- and fourth-grade officials with this honor, I am afraid that they would have been grateful for the grace of heaven for a long time, and they would not have burned incense with the whole family to eat the royal banquet? and even to the fathers and fathers.

But looking at Qin Lin's appearance, he didn't seem to care at all, and when he turned around, he was going to wipe out the imperial banquet with the fat man and Niu Dali.

Of course, Hong Yangshan didn't know that Qin Lin was completely stunned in this kind of thing, he just became more and more in awe: Chief Qin was really hidden, and he was still silent when he suffered such a special encounter, this state of mind that was not shocked by the humiliation was really admirable. ,

Of course, Qin Lin asked him to go to the house to eat the imperial banquet together, which made Hong Yangshan even more flattered, and the chief's gesture of showing kindness was naturally closely related to his performance in front of Zhi Shouyou today......

The banquet of the imperial gift was really rich, on the night of the first day of the first lunar month, the Qin Lin Mansion was full of laughter again, the male and female hosts and the pro-military captains and female soldiers and sisters eliminated the imperial banquet together, and the difference from Chinese New Year's Eve was that there was one more guest of Hong Yangshan, and a royal banquet was enough for more than twenty people.

Xu Xinyi didn't care about any imperial banquet, but the pro-soldier captains and female soldiers were very strange, and they were all sincerely afraid, which made Qin Lin laugh.

Early the next morning, someone came to the door to fly films, and the servant who threw the films pulled his throat outside and asked the captain of the pro-soldier guarding the door: "What's the matter, you don't have a door book in your house?" ”

In the Ming Dynasty, the rules of the Beijing division were that on the first day of the first month, the first day of the first month, the three hundred officials of the second and third hundred officials bowed to each other, and only after the fourth day of the first month did they go to relatives.

Officials voted each other to congratulate each other, which was equivalent to the New Year's card of later generations, and each family posted a red paper bag on the door, on which was written the official title and surname of the owner, called "door book", so that the person who came to worship with the sticker could put the name card inside.

Qin Lin and Xu Xinyi were having breakfast, and when they heard that the soldiers came in to report, Xu Xinyi said strangely: "Hey, we also know Wu Qingbo and Dingguo Gong in Beijing, where did so many people post them?" ”

Qin Lin touched his chin and smiled with satisfaction, his actions before the Great Dynasty Meeting were tantamount to setting up a big banner and setting up a mountain, although the direct effect was only Hong Yangshan's complete surrender, but he had already shown his face in front of Emperor Wanli, the first assistant and the second assistant, and the Dingguo Gongwu Qingbo, and the civil and military officials at all levels.

No, although there are not many people who come to worship, but there are a lot of stickers, and they hurriedly called the soldiers to paste a red paper bag and hang it on the door, and it didn't take long to receive a big bag of New Year's cards.
