Chapter 13: Who's Passing the Note
Pei Lin heard Xu Yang say that His Majesty's food was too luxurious.
Suddenly shook his head dissatisfiedly and said: "The jade food given by His Majesty is all for you and me, and it is worthy of it, don't mention it again." ”
In fact, the annual expenditure of the government hall is a considerable amount, so that some prime ministers look at it painfully, and more than one prime minister has put it forward more than once, saying that the country's finances are very difficult, we are always eating and drinking, the impact is too bad, or reduce the budget of this piece?
As a result, Xu Yang was shocked, and other prime ministers were all opposed in groups, among which the old man Pei Lin said a particularly classic sentence, which was very representative, and everyone was very convinced, and the original meaning was probably this:
The emperor allocated so much public money to give us food and drink, in order to give preferential treatment to talents, and hoped that after we finished eating, we could work hard and govern the country well. If you have a weak heart and feel that your work is not worthy of this good meal, then you sparkle and step aside, and you have someone else who can eat and compete. You don't have to worry about national affairs, you are all chirping crookedly on these trivial things, isn't it fame and reputation? What's more, saving the money for this meal will not do much to solve the country's financial problems, if you work hard and do a good job, you can benefit the people of the country, and a good meal is not too much.
Xu Yang felt that it would be strange if the officials who eat and drink at public expense in modern times used this crooked reasoning to justify it, and it would be strange if they were not sprayed to death by netizens, but the people of the Tang Dynasty (especially the literati) actually agreed with this statement, so the luxurious lunch of Kenda Chicken in the Political Affairs Hall continued like this.
But then again, this luxurious lunch is really not covered, Xu Yang has been in Datang for several months, and he has eaten a lot of things in Tiannan and Haibei, but the food of the Tang Dynasty people is generally equivalent to chaff in Xu Yang's eyes.
That's why he is in a hurry to build a hotel, no way, can't be greedy.
This time to eat the meal of the imperial dining room, Xu Yang finally felt that he had eaten a good meal, the red pigeon is not only crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the meat is soaked in the braised soup, Xu Yang who eats it is about to bite off his fingers, the steamed rabbit meat is smooth and moisturizing the part of the essence of a whole rabbit's mouth, and the few vegetarian dishes are also remarkable, the seashells are not as delicious as the later generations, and the fishy smell is still difficult to remove. In the end, I ate more than half of it.
"Delicious! What a delicious ear! Pei Lin puffed up his stomach, sat on his back in front of the table, and said with satisfaction.
Xu Yang also licked his lips, he must invite the two imperial chefs to be his personal chefs when he goes back, and go back to give them all the recipes that he has not eaten in later generations and let them make them.
Just as Xu Yang was also stroking his stomach and sitting in the political hall, several fathers-in-law suddenly rushed in outside, led by the white-eyed father-in-law beside Li Er.
The father-in-law looked at the big man in the hall, respectfully bowed, and then walked in front of Xu Yang, and said very casually: "Xu Guigu, Your Majesty has invited you to go to the East Palace to face the saint, remember to bring your mobile phone mirror." With that, he bowed down and waited for Xu Yang to follow him.
GG Smecta, Xu Yang's heart is already 10,000 divine beasts rushing by.
How Diao is Li Er's intelligence agency? Is the FBI trained out? I only performed for the bigwigs before eating, and the new word 'mobile phone mirror' was just invented before eating, and Li Er summoned him just after eating, and asked him to bring his mobile phone over by name.
'God forbid, Li 20 must not be wealthy. Xu Yang now regrets showing his mobile phone, although it is very stylish, but if he is robbed by Li Er, he has no place to cry, and the day before yesterday he just said, "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, and the king's minister." Even the world is his, so of course his own is also his, if he doesn't give it to Li Er, it will be a slap in the face.
Bidding farewell to the big guys, Xu Yang cried with a sad face, and followed the father-in-law of Baimei towards the East Palace, the East Palace is still some distance from the political hall, and the father-in-law of Baimei did not speak all the way, but just took Xu Yang around.
When he was about to arrive at the East Palace, the white-eyed father-in-law suddenly turned around and approached Xu Yang like a ghost, Sen Sen said: "Xu Guigu, it's a good thing that the court knows a lot of things, but it's never a good thing to know too much, the more you know, the faster you die, you are a smart person, and the old body only said this." Ignoring the stunned Xu Yang, he turned around and continued to walk towards the East Palace.
Xu Yang was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted, and hurriedly followed, although this father-in-law was ghostly, he was a good person, and he also knew to advise himself not to know too much about those royal secrets, and his good impression of him suddenly increased a lot.
When he arrived at the East Palace, after two inspections, the white-eyed father-in-law took Xu Yang into the Liangyi Hall of the East Palace.
"陛xià! Hou Xuyang of Chang'an County brought. ”
The Liangyi Palace, as a place for Li Er to eat and rest after the court on weekdays, is not as strict as the Imperial Study and the Yeting Palace, and the number of forbidden troops and the father-in-law serving are much less than those two places.
"Let him in." The voices coming from the room were a little playful.
The white-eyed father-in-law pushed open the window door and took Xu Yang into the two yi halls, the two yi halls are used as the emperor's resting place, and the various decorations are obviously heavier in the atmosphere of home life, not as domineering and luxurious as the Taiji Palace.
Li Er was kneeling on top of the main hall of the Liangyi Hall at this time, and a fair-skinned woman beside him was feeding him spoonful by spoonful of food.
Xu Yang looked at the woman with straight eyes, the royal sister was full of fan, her fair face was like milk, she was wearing a golden crown, a purple robe and silk dress, dignified and virtuous, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was simply an otaku killer.
When the woman saw Xu Yang so gaffe, she also frowned, but fortunately Xu Yang just appreciated it, and she didn't have any lust, so she was stunned for a second or two and then kowtowed: "See Your Majesty." ”
Li Er chewed his rice and was silent for a few seconds before he said, "Xu Yang, Xu Xiaoyao, you are so bold." ”
Xu Yang lay on the ground and said, "The courage of the minister has always been quite small. ”
Li Er chewed two mouthfuls of food vigorously, as if what he chewed in his mouth was Xu Yang, and said: "I don't even tell me about the artifacts that predict ancient and modern times, mobile phone mirror, I haven't even heard you mention it, the crime of bullying the king, you still dare to say that you are cowardly?" ”
Xu Yang lay on the ground and said a little reluctantly: "It's not that the minister wants to hide it from His Majesty, it's just that this Guigu artifact mobile phone mirror has predicted two major events in the Tang Dynasty, and the minister is afraid that once His Majesty knows the secret art of Guigu, he will endlessly use the artifact that predicts the ancient and modern times, so that he will be punished by God and be angry with people and gods." ”
Li Er's eyes narrowed slightly, and several fine rays of light shot out of them, carefully calculating the authenticity of Xu Yang's words.
"Two big things? Tell me about the two big things? Li Er's eyes were like torches, like a hunting hunter.
"In the second year of Zhenguan, there was a locust plague in Guannei, and the minister already had a way to deal with it." Xu Yang said confidently.
Li Er's brows were twisted into a pimple, such a thing as a locust plague can be described as a devastation, and the people will say that it is a punishment sent by heaven to warn the Son of Heaven.
"What else is there to do?" Li Er's tone was not good.
"In the third year of Zhenguan, the Turkic snow disaster, the thief captured the king first." Xu Yang smiled very happily.
Li Er suddenly got up.
"It's a note from you!"
