The group returned to Yizhou City with all kinds of prey, envious of many people, Li Su took the prey back to the palace to explain to Zhang San to start preparing, Shangguan Yi and others left first, sorted out the list of invitations at night, and presented it to Li Su tomorrow.
Feng Chen returned to the south courtyard, and as soon as Li Yu entered the door, he saw Cui Yingying burping, and then looked at her hand, the good guy was holding a half-eaten sandwich bread.
"You're not going to eat all day, are you?" Li Su touched Cui Yingying's round belly, "Didn't you tell you not to eat too much?" ”
Cui Yingying said: "Your Highness, it's so delicious, I can't help but want to eat it." ”
Li Su snatched the bread from her hand, stuffed a few mouthfuls into her mouth, and said, "Don't eat any more, be careful of bloating." ”
Under Li Su's stern gaze, Cui Yingying had no choice but to nod.
At night, Cui Yingying tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, her stomach was uncomfortable, Li Su scolded her for deserving it, let her have a long memory, Cui Yingying admitted her mistake in a loud voice, and began to pick. Teased Li Su, Li Su shook her head and sighed, and rubbed her stomach for a while.
The next day, Shangguan Yi presented the list of invitations to Li Su, Li Su took a look, there was basically no problem, and asked Shangguan Yi to inform them one by one, these people are basically the county orders of each county and the lord below, and there are those old wang clans in Yizhou, and the last high-level matter, thanks to their cooperation, the rest of the clansmen were captured, and this time they are also grateful.
In order to prepare for this family banquet, Li Su divided the palace into two places, the front hall is where the officials eat and drink, and the south courtyard is the place where the ladies and ladies have fun.
After another two days, all the qiē were ready, the day of the family banquet came, and the guests who came to the door in the morning began one after another, Li Su sat in the front hall, and Cui Yingying received the lady and the lady in the south courtyard.
"Grass people, see Your Highness!" After greeting with several county magistrates, three richly dressed old men and a group of young men and girls of different ages came forward to salute Li Su, Shangguan Yi attached his ear to Li Su's ear and introduced it, it turned out that this was the old Wang family of Yizhou, the Dou family, the Sun family and the Qian family.
Li Su smiled: "It turned out to be Dou Gong, Sun Gong, and Qian Gong, thank you for your help last time!" ”
"Your Highness is polite, in fact, we old bones are just moving our mouths, and the real contribution is still Ding Zhuang in the clan, and Xiande has not seen His Highness." The patriarch of the Dou family said to a seventeen or eighteen-year-old son standing behind.
"Grass people, see Your Highness!" The young man bowed.
Li Su smiled, he glanced at the patriarch of the Dou family with a look of hope, and probably understood the thoughts of these old wang clans, Yizhou was pacified, and the high-power forces were cleared out of the Yizhou officialdom, but this also caused a vacancy in the official position, and after Shangguanyi and Wang Yinlong took power, many students from poor families were enabled, and because of the bad influence of the high-ranking families in Yizhou, Shangguanyi and Wang Yinlong did not consider the old wangs in terms of recruiting officials.
Li Su understood that the Shi clan was still the dominant force in the Tang Dynasty, and it could not be disintegrated by violence alone, and their inheritance was long, and their cultural heritage was indeed much higher than that of those poor people, so there were also many talents in the clan.
"Is this Dou Gong's grandson? What a talent! Li Su looked at Dou Xiande, this guy is too handsome, he really has a face like a crown of jade, and the jade tree is in the wind.
"His Royal Highness has won the prize, and he just won the Jinshi in this year's imperial examination." Despite saying this, the patriarch of the Dou family was proud.
If you win the jinshi, you only have the qualifications to be an official, and you still need to go through several procedures if you really want to become an official, but one of them is that they can omit such a step, that is, let the official recommend, and to be an official in a place like Yizhou, as long as Li Su nods, and then report to the court.
Li Su thought for a while, no leader likes his subordinates to form a group, and they all hope that there will be competition between them, so that the leadership can be left and right, which is why the princes of ancient times have turned a blind eye to the minister's party struggle, Li Su is the same, he still understands the truth of the slave bullying the master, thinking of this, Li Su smiled: "Oh, yes? There is still a lack of a Sima in this Yizhou City, and Xiande is willing to give in. ”
"This..."Dou Xiande was stunned for a moment and looked at his grandfather.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" The patriarch of the Dou family was stunned for a moment, and suddenly his heart blossomed, this Yizhou Sima is not the same as the local county order, it is a close minister by Li Su's side.
Dou Xiande bowed deeply and said, "Your Highness Xie!" ”
gave the Dou family such a cheap, and the other two families naturally couldn't be treated badly, Li Su asked Shangguan Yi to use it only when selecting officials, and also to take the wang family into account, so that he could be regarded as winning over the three families at the same time and tying them to a rope with himself.
Unveiling this little episode, the family banquet officially began, Zhang San led his subordinates to set up three cauldrons in the open space of the front hall, the pot is the soup that has been stewed, if it is a modern person here, they will definitely smell it, this is clearly the taste of the hot pot base, this is Li Su bought back from the modern era to store in the zài cellar, originally planned to open a small stove with Cui Yingying, but I didn't expect to catch up with today, in addition to these cauldrons, there are five or six grills with coal were carried out, and rabbits and pheasants were skewered and placed on it, A few housekeepers began to paint and turn the grill with various spices.
Because there were too many people coming, Jin Daqian lifted out the low table in the canteen of the North Courtyard, and spread a clean plain cloth on the ground, and at this time, one stir-fry after another began to be served.
All the officials and nobles looked at these novelties in amazement, and the tempting fragrance made them swallow their saliva wildly, and Li Su looked at these people's expressions with pride.
"You are seated, please feel free!" It was almost time, and the maidservants began to serve wine, and Li Su said to everyone.
Hearing this, the officials and nobles began to sit down, picking up chopsticks and picking up vegetables, "It's delicious!" I don't know who said it, and then the words of praise kept ringing out, Qin Huaiyu, Shangguan Yi and others also tasted this dish for the first time, their appetite was great, and they began to sweep wildly, what is amazing is that such a big family banquet for a while only the sound of chewing remains.
Li Su walked to the hot pot and said, "You can stand up and walk around at will, the dishes here will not be delivered to the table, so you don't have to be restrained."
As soon as Li Su's words fell, Qin Huaiyu walked towards a hot pot with a saucer, he saw Li Su holding a plate in his hand, and saw that there was one in front of everyone on the table, so he walked over, the water in this hot pot was already boiling, bubbling and bubbling, and there were a lot of materials, meat, and vegetables in it, he picked up a meatball and tasted it, and nodded again and again, this meatball was taught by Li Su to make Zhang San, pure meatballs, soaked in soup is even more delicious, and Qin Huaiyu stuffed it into his mouth one after another after eating a meatball.
When Shangguan Yi and Wang Yinlong saw it, they both stepped forward and ate the hot pot in the same way, and the three of them stayed by the hot pot and didn't leave.
The others were attracted when they saw this scene, and then the hot pot was the main dish of the family banquet, and they ate it for a long time in vain.
At this time, the barbecue is almost over, and the family takes down the barbecue good, and whoever eats it will take it himself.
The situation in the south courtyard is similar to that here, they are all the same kinds of vegetables, but the amount is less, but for the female dependents, the food is delicious for a while, and their attention is more focused on Cui Yingying's treasures, such as the full-length mirror, these female dependents were shocked when they saw it, and several young ladies even had the urge to rob, and those snacks, Cui Yingying hid them all, so many people, she was going to die of distress.
The family banquet started at noon, lasted for a whole hour and a half, and the guests who came were all drunk and drunk, they didn't expect that they could eat such a good meal before the New Year.
In a voice of thanks, Li Su sent these officials and the wang clan away, he did not attend the annual meeting of the Tang Company, and he completed the annual meeting of the Tang Dynasty.
