Chapter 34: Help Yuan Chonghuan in the dark!
Speaking of the daily meals of the emperor and empress, as well as the queen mother and others.
I believe that in the modern 21st century, the first impression in the minds of many people is the picture of the Empress Dowager Zixi eating hundreds of dishes at a meal and finally throwing them all away. Think they must be different from ordinary people, how willful how to come!
However, the ideal is so full, but the reality is so cruel.
If you really think that every emperor and his family are so wasteful, you are very wrong.
(The Manchu royal family has only occupied for more than 200 years.) There are countless emperors in the entire Chinese civilization, with a history of about 5,000 years. The Qing Dynasty was a dynasty that did not enter the stream in any way. However, X Zhang wasted and killed Han people, as well as the royal family was notorious. )
There have been hundreds of emperors in Chinese history, and most of the daily meals have strict rules and procedures.
After all, it is not easy to govern the country, and it seems that life is more important for whether to eat well or not.
It's just that it is the late Ming Dynasty, so let's focus on the daily food situation of the emperors in the late Ming Dynasty.
Just like these dishes that Zhu Zilong saw in front of him now, because the country's finances were in some difficulty, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse loved carpenter work before he hung up. Therefore, I don't pay attention to what I eat, and the variety and quantity of the dishes that come up are basically on the same level as the landlord of the Zhang family!
There are quite a lot of rules for eating here, don't look at the many people accompanying you on the side, but Zhu Zilong is how unhappy he looks.
First of all, in order to reflect the emperor's style, there are ancestral regulations. He doesn't have to go to the food to eat himself. As long as you gesture with your eyes, a professional eunuch and a palace maid will bring the dish to you in portion.
Obviously, Zhu Zilong felt good about this dish, and he wanted to eat more.
As a result, after only three bites, no one sent them over, but they were withdrawn.
After recalling it carefully in his mind, Zhu Zilong remembered. TM, that's what it was!
No matter which dish, no matter how delicious it is, the emperor cannot eat three bites in a row, which is a family rule handed down by the ancestors, called "no more than three spoons are allowed to eat vegetables".
The reasons are, firstly, the ancestral family rules, and secondly, the fear that someone will know the emperor's hobbies.
I am afraid that someone will make up their minds about the diet and poison the emperor. The four eunuchs standing behind the emperor were dedicated to enforcing the rules of the family, and even the emperor had to follow the rules set by his ancestors.
The palace called this rule "passing on the meal but not persuading the meal".
In short, the emperor's meals are always unpredictable, and people can't easily grasp the rules. (The fear of death was the most important ingredient, and it gradually became the ancestral family rule.) )
For example, the food expenses of the Wanli Emperor of the Ming Dynasty were 480 taels of silver per month, and Wanli was a little rich because of Zhang Juzheng's reign.
Oh, by the way, there will also be eunuchs who will test and taste the poison before the emperor eats this dish to prevent poisoning. Indirect means that the emperor is eating other people's saliva and vegetables every day. I can't think of it, the grandeur is there!
Zhu Zilong was the emperor of this cottage, because it was the first time to experience eating, so he was patient and walked according to the process.
When he finished this dinner and looked at the time, I fainted.
It took more than an hour, huh?
The time that the brother clone controlled the emperor was basically the same as this. Gotcha, that's all for today, the golden tube is still not full!
Now that time is of the essence, Zhu Zilong waved his hand and asked people to issue an order to summon Sun Chengzong.
I don't know much about historical celebrities, if you check the information and find people, Zhu Zilong's ability to control the emperor's clone for two or three hours at most every day. You can only take your time!
However, the eunuch who had received the order seemed to have a bit of a dilemma on his face.
Zhu Zilong immediately sensed that something was wrong, and asked him why he didn't go yet: "What the hell is going on, you should come quickly." In any case, forgive your sins! ”
Unexpectedly, the little eunuch knelt down immediately and replied in a panic: "If you return to the emperor, Lord Sun has already returned to his post!" ”
In an instant, Zhu Zilong's eyes were round.
Hurriedly asked what was going on? Don't hide it!
When I asked, I found out that Sun Chengzong was impeached by the ministers of the DPRK and China again, and he resigned again in anger and returned to his hometown.
Zhu Zilong recalled the history of the Ming Dynasty that he remembered, and it seemed that according to the year, it was indeed true. The last time Master Sun, who had an extreme temperament, seemed to have played such a resignation and returned to his hometown once, this is the second time.
If history didn't change, he would have to wait until two years later, when the Emperor of the Apocalypse hung up. When the Qing Dynasty attacked again, he would enter the court again as an official. (But now that the Emperor of the Apocalypse has become Zhu Zilong's doppelganger, no one knows whether he will hang up on time in two years.) )
Oh wait. Wrong!
This should be the third time, weird. History seems to have gone awry!
Zhu Zilong thought about it in his mind, and seemed to feel that it might be because of himself that he caused the butterfly effect.
Do you want to call the old grandson back to continue working?
To be honest, Zhu Zilong was a little entangled. After all, they are very old, and the successor Yuan Chonghuan seems to have done a good job in recent months!
Even the wild boar skin NO1 Nurhachi, it is said that two months ago, he was hit by a cannon, and then he fell ill.
Well, Yuan Chonghuan currently has a few good little brothers helping out, (Man Gui, Deputy General Zuo Fu, Zhu Mei, Zu Dashou, He Kegang, etc.), as long as there are no accidents, the border side is still very OK!
Okay, Mr. Sun, for the time being, should take a few days off to rest and rest!
Zhu Zilong, who had made up his mind to let Teacher Sun rest for a few days, quickly put his mind on other aspects.
He asked someone to send the eunuchs' red folds over, focusing on those related to the border passes.
With the speed of unforgettable and ten lines at a glance, Zhu Zilong read a lot of excerpts. When he saw a secret report from Jinyiwei, Yuan Chonghuan seemed to want to negotiate peace with Houjin.
Zhu Zilong obviously felt that he had a faint sadness again.
Yuan Chonghuan, a kid with a flawed character and an iron bull character, could it be that as recorded in history, he began to embark on the road of death from then on?
It's not the master of the trouble!
After thinking about it, Zhu Zilong personally stepped out and put a batch of red on the fold with a pen.
"I know it, this must be a plan, and the celebrant can't bother it!"
Comrade Zhu Zilong's meaning is easy to understand, that is, the emperor knows, and the people below don't have to worry too much. This must be Yuan Chonghuan's strategy to deal with the enemy, just wait and see. Don't be suspicious when you have nothing to do, of course, timely reporting is still necessary!
Putting down the pen, Zhu Zilong felt a little dizzy again.
He knew that time was running out to become emperor today. Yuan Chonghuan, Yuan Chonghuan, brother can only help you get here for the time being!
I hope you don't die all the way!
Otherwise, I, the fake carpenter emperor who faints every day, won't be too easy to talk to.
