Chapter 719: The restaurant in the city is starving to death

Li Longji's trip was not kept secret.

So almost everyone who wants to know knows where the emperor is going.

As soon as Xu Mingyang asked, his family told him that the emperor went to the dock, and it was estimated that he was going to have a fun there, of course, this can only be said by Si Xia, although many people know that the emperor is here to play, by the way, look at the extent of the railway construction here.

But on the surface, it is to say that His Majesty the Emperor cares about the people's livelihood and personally went over to understand the situation, so it is not bad, whether it is to play or have fun, you have to contact the local people.

Once any of the people have grievances, they can directly tell the emperor, and the local officials must not stop them, and after the people and the emperor say it, the emperor will not give the local officials any face, and will ask on the spot, if the officials really make mistakes, then the crime will be great.

Xu Mingyang was also worried, thinking that after he arrived in Luzhou, would there be any problems in the process of assassinating the history, if there were, it was estimated that the people would have to mention it to His Majesty.

"Your Majesty is really, and there is no record in the book that any emperor wants the current Your Majesty to be like this, when he is out of the house, he does not ask the officials about things, but directly asks the people to ask, and the people are ignorant one by one, what can they know? Did I do something wrong? ”

Xu Mingyang muttered and asked a concubine who was guarding next to him.

His little concubine is beautiful, although the status is not as good as the wife, but it has a different taste, the wife is responsible for running the house, and she has to manage the big and small things in the family, not only generous, but also dignified, she doesn't have to be very charming, and her body is plump.

But the concubine is different, the concubine must be beautiful, the best eyes are attractive, the figure must be good, and know how to sprinkle jiāo, and at the same time be proficient in the art of boudoir.

This is the case with the concubine chosen by Xu Mingyang.

"Husband, what mistake can you make, you have been helping the local people do good things when you arrived in Luzhou, if you really have to find a fault, it is just that you don't spend money on eating delicious things, the wine and food in Haiyunjian Restaurant taste really good, the concubine still wants to eat at noon, give the husband some supplements, and the concubine is still waiting for Hou Fujun at night."

Xu Mingyang's little concubine didn't care whether Xu Mingyang was still sick or not, and when she was talking, her body leaned over softly.

Not to mention, she really played a big role in this dependence, at least Xu Mingyang's body reacted, and there was more squinting in her eyes.

Stretched out his hand, stopped the concubine's waist, laughed twice, and said: "Yes, the wine and food in Haiyunjian Restaurant are good, let them send them, it's not that I don't give money, who let Lu Zhou's rules be like this, don't eat for nothing, see how I clean you up at night." ”

"My husband is bad." Xu Mingyang's concubine sprinkled jiāo.

Xu Mingyang said that he was eating the wine and food of Haiyunjian Restaurant, looking like he was taking advantage, but he was a little helpless in his heart, he hoped that the emperor could find him over for a meal.

Although it is said that when you eat with the emperor, you can't drink too much, say the wrong thing, and there are many rules, but being able to be given a banquet by the emperor is a kind of grace in itself, even if you eat ordinary dishes and drink ordinary wine, the taste is different.

What's more, how can the food and wine that the emperor eat be bad?

It's a pity that His Majesty went out to play by himself, and he didn't call the biggest official of his place to accompany him, and he didn't even leave a word of condolence.

It's hateful that the people of the Zhang and Wang families, they can be by His Majesty's side at any time, and even that little child dares to say himself in front of His Majesty, but what should I do, if I really offend people today, will I be arrested?

Fortunately, after he became a assassin, there were no problems, hey, even if he wanted to find a problem, he couldn't come out, and the entire Luzhou government and local operations didn't need to go through their own hands at all.

If you want to do something, the officials of each county on the other side are doing it, and at the same time, they send a document to their state capital to ask for approval or not, and what they do is to write two words of praise and things that need attention on the paperwork, and then press the official seal.

If you write it yourself, if it is the same as what others think, they will listen, if it is different, you don't care at all, even if you don't print it on it, what should people do, or how to do it.

The stab is no different from an ornament, like a puppet with a string, in this way, of course, he can't make a mistake, even if he makes a mistake, it has nothing to do with himself.

Unless Xiaobei was deliberately looking for a disease, it was obviously the problem of each county in the state capital, and then he was caught by Xiaobei, because there was a seal of thorn history on the paper, so he directly asked for his own trouble.

It's really possible, maybe Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan disdain it, but Xiaobei and their group of children can't do anything, and they are still unreasonable, otherwise the officials of Datang would not be so afraid of them.

"Fake, everything is fake, whoever can get His Majesty's favor is real, what a history of assassination, what a third-grade official, it's useless."

Thinking about it, Xu Mingyang muttered sadly.

The concubine next to him is not stupid, she knows what this man of her is talking about, she knows what she knows, but there is no way, who makes the family have great skills.

But what she said was not what she thought in her heart, the little concubine said to Xu Mingyang: "Husband, don't be angry with your child, wait for our child to be older, and let him study hard, he may not be worse than Zhang Xiaobao in the future, and he will also take the top exam and become a big official, which is more powerful than Zhang Xiaobao." ”

"Okay, let the child learn hard." Xu Mingyang said, he never thought that his children could be compared to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, or even compared to Xiaobei's group of younger children, I heard that the education methods of the Zhang and Wang families are different, and the nine little guys are more than one step smarter than ordinary children.

Don't say anything else, just say that their courage is not ordinary, ordinary children, seeing the emperor and knowing the identity of the emperor, are so frightened that they dare not speak out, how can they be like Xiaobei They still dare to let His Majesty hug them, and grab something to eat with His Majesty, they have become sperm.

"Go ahead, let Haiyunjian Restaurant prepare the noon wine and dishes, I want to eat a big feast, the kind of sixty-four dishes, I can't control them otherwise, and I have to make them uncomfortable when they eat."

Xu Mingyang gritted his teeth and said.

Immediately, someone left and went to Haiyunjian Restaurant to order, it was done before, anyway, it didn't cost money, no matter what you wanted to eat, Haiyunjian Restaurant promised to do it as long as there were materials, and it was done very carefully.

Although other restaurants and restaurants also do not cost money, but the taste is not as good as Haiyunjian, therefore, rarely go to other places to eat, unless the old man wanders on the street, hungry, and does not want to wait, this will find something to eat casually, and then the next person is responsible for giving something as a proof, writing a note of what was eaten, and letting the seller go to the business association to receive money for reimbursement.

But today seems to be different from before, after the next person arrived at Haiyunjian Restaurant, he came back with his head down very regretfully, found Xu Mingyang who was still lying there, and reported: "Master, the small one went, but the people in the restaurant said that they didn't have any ingredients, and they would talk about it sometimes, ......what do you think?" ”

"Bastards, a bunch of bastards, nothing? Will there be nothing in Haiyunjian Restaurant? Fools? Fools won't believe it, revenge, this is revenge on me, it must be Xiaobei, without her orders, how dare Haiyunjian Restaurant? I promised to be honestly an official in the state capital, and I didn't care about everything, but now it has changed? ”

Xu Mingyang shouted angrily, and after shouting, he commanded his subordinates with little confidence: "Let's change a restaurant, maybe it's really gone." ”

The reason why he lacks confidence is because he has just shouted out what he has just said, and it is important to be his official in the state capital honestly, and there will be no shortage of other supplies.

But, is he honest? He also estimated that he would make trouble with others when they came, and in front of others, he said those words to the emperor, which seemed to be not close to the word honest.

The next person went out, and after a short time, he came back again, and reported: "Master, the little one went to a few restaurants again, each with its own reasons, anyway, if you don't cook for us, what should we do?" ”

"Have you asked about all the restaurants? Is there anything missing? Xu Mingyang was scared this time, he was afraid that the people of Luzhou would starve him to death.

"I didn't go, but the little one probably didn't need to go again, because the little one told a rice noodle seller to ask for a bowl of rice noodle, and the rice noodle seller also said no, but while talking, he gave another person who passed after the small one a rice noodle, master, what should I do?"

The servant asked worriedly.

Xu Mingyang was really stupid, thought about it, and asked, "What is there to eat at home?" It's better to do it yourself, but deal with it first. ”

The subordinate shook his head: "Back to the old man, no, there is not even rice and noodles in the house, let's eat, but all of them go directly to eat outside, or let others give it, so we don't fire at all, no matter how late it is, there are many shops in our city that are open, and they are open all day for twelve hours, and we don't need to do it ourselves." ”

"Waste, it's all waste, can't you buy some if you don't do it yourself? It's okay to put it there, so let's just drink water? And then starve to death day by day? Or which of you goes fishing? Or go to the mountains to catch wild animals? ”

Xu Mingyang said depressedly, he was not very worried that the people in his house could be starved to death, and Zhang Xiaobao and they couldn't do so much, but it was still very possible to starve a few times.

Especially now that they are out and not in the city, it doesn't taste good to be hungry.

The concubine next to him felt hungry now, swallowed her saliva, and came up with an idea: "Master, it's better to let the people who don't go out much in the mansion dress up in disguise and take the money to buy food, let's spend money, we can't buy it in one house, we have to go a few more, otherwise, when the people who sell things see that they have bought more, they will naturally suspect that they bought it from our house, and they should not sell it." ”

Xu Mingyang couldn't think of a good way, nodded and said, "Go ahead, do it, it's best to buy some more rice noodles and vegetables, and stay in the mansion, I don't know how long they plan to toss." ”

The next person took the order, and this time he bought enough food, in addition to the rice and noodles made by others, so as not to be found out next time, and not to sell things, so as not to be hungry.

When it was almost noon, Xu Mingyang had eaten the food and wine, and the clever concubine came up with a good way to successfully evade the locals and win the battle for food containment.

But Xu Mingyang did not have the slightest joy of victory in his heart, and he once again felt how far the power of the Zhang and Wang families in Luzhou had reached.

"Husband, it's better for us not to be officials in Luzhou, change places, but be assassins in other states, so as not to starve to death." When the concubine was drinking with Xu Mingyang, she said worriedly.

Xu Mingyang took a sip of wine and shook his head: "It's useless, as long as you are in Datang, it's useless to be an official anywhere, as long as Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are willing, there is nothing we can eat in the entire Datang, even if you pick up others and throw them out to feed the livestock, you can't pick them up, and the people are biased towards them." ”

"Then, the concubine went to apologize to them, and it was not good to be soft, and she was always tinging." Xu Mingyang's concubine is clever, in her opinion, it is not a big deal to be soft or something, she often pleases his wife, although it seems that she is favored, but if the wife does not allow the master to sleep in her room at night, she has no choice.

Xu Mingyang was moved, and sighed: "I know your heart, but you can't go, don't apologize, you can't see anyone, you can see them as anyone?" The people were able to see them, because they were willing to see the people, and there was no one younger than me.

I'll go, and when they come back, I'll go sick, and tell them that I haven't eaten yet, and let them be pitiful, and if there is such a thing in the future, I will hide as far as I can. ”

Xu Mingyang, a person from the house, was eating the food he secretly bought, and Li Longji and his party were also eating.

There are a lot of children in the children's park near the pier, some of them come to travel, some go here, their children when they think about the world of 'men and women', or when they talk about buying and selling, they will be arranged to the amusement park, and the amusement park also has the function of a kindergarten, and it is free to take care of.

Today, in addition to the children from outside, the children of the locals also have a holiday, and on the festive day, the children have to have time to play, just in conjunction with the summer vacation, and there is nothing a few days in advance.

For a while, the children's paradise became lively, and more importantly, today's lunch meal was different from before.

The cooks dispatched by Haiyun made something to eat, not a big pot of rice, it was all fried alone, but a child couldn't eat a large plate of dishes, so they were divided into samples and placed there.

The children held the distributed dinner plates, waiting in line to eat, and the people in charge of cooking today were Li Longji, Queen Wang, Concubine Wu Hui, as well as Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

The children were nervous and looking forward to it, they hadn't eaten yet, they felt that it tasted good, and their adults were also standing from a distance and watching, one by one, the people who cooked were the highest existence in the Tang Dynasty, not to mention the food made by the chef of Haiyunjian Restaurant, even if it was a raw thing placed there, as long as these people cooked it, it was also delicious in the world.

Li Longji filled a child with a spoonful of braised pork, and then a few other dishes, and finally asked, "How much do you eat?" ”

"I'll eat as much as I want, and I'll eat as much as I want." The child also knows who is the one who cooks, and his eyes are wide open, full of little stars,!。
