Duguzhen also smiled and raised the glass cup, "You can come to the house as a guest, and if you have friends, don't you say it?" The old year has passed, the new year is coming, for the prosperity of Yan Tang and the sage congratulations, drink victory"

Everyone also ordered to raise a glass and take a sip, but Chen Dao laughed, "Wine is sugar water, and a certain man should drink strong wine and change it for a burning knife."

So Dugu Xinci got up upside down and poured wine for everyone, the three ladies smiled and said that they would not drink spirits, and Dugu Xinci also poured wine and water.

"There are four sentences in these four dishes, so these four dishes should also have verses to match" Zhang Jiuling didn't understand Dugu's kind and retributive temperament, and he chattered endlessly.

The people were also curious, and commanded to make a coax.

Dugu Xinci's eyes blinked and opened his mouth to say, "I read history yesterday, and I was very touched when I read the Liuhou chapter, and I have to have a poem, I don't know if Zhang Zhizhao is interested in hearing about it?" ”

Feng Yuanyi immediately resurrected with full blood and shouted, "Come and listen"

The one who stayed behind, Zhang Liangye of the Han Dynasty, and Zhang Jiuling's distant ancestor.

"Lifting the sword Jing Ke is extremely brave, and the wave will be seven feet to martyr Qin. Yan Qiu did not take revenge on Han Qiu, and her appearance turned out to be like a woman. Dugu Xinci happily chanted.

Everyone heard that they all had different colors, and they all thought that offending this son was really the existing report? A good marquis who has left a name for the ages is praised as "looking like a woman"

Zhang Jiuling also couldn't cry or laugh, and gave up.

"Look at these four dishes upside down, Uncle Chen's poem" Dugu Xinci, Xiao Heng on the left hand side also came to show off

"The black clouds crush the city and want to destroy it, and the armor light opens to the sun.

The sound of horns fills the sky with autumn colors, stuffed with swallow fat and night purple.

Half a roll of red flags is in the water, and the frost is heavy and the cold is silent.

repay the king's will on the golden platform, and carry the jade dragon to die for the king. ”

Everyone heard that it was really attached to the meeting if you looked at it carefully, the Taiji diagram of the crucian carp steamed egg used black clouds to suppress the city and wanted to destroy it, and the description of Jiaguang Xiangjin was quite appropriate, the black hair cabbage shredded, the red egg yolk, and the people who watched it had a great appetite.

The second plate of roasted turtledoves lies on the tree, and the soup on the plate is not an exaggeration to describe it as rouge and night purple.

The third plate of braised pork is also aptly described as a golden table, and it is more appropriate that there is a sugar man sitting on it.

The fourth plate is in the shape of a jade dragon, carrying the jade dragon to die for the king.

"Far-fetched," Duguzhen said with a smile.

"Well, it's not bad, Xiao Langjun, the poetic eye of this poem is the ingenuity of the Far Eastern Hou" Chen Dao supervised the envoy to chew on the cranberry silk, not knowing whether it was appropriate to praise the poem or to say that the dish was delicious.

Everyone dared to question the poem as an old work, and they all tasted it and praised it.

Dugu Xinci sipped his wine triumphantly, "These four dishes are not so particular, while the dishes are still warm, please use them slowly"

"Such a beautiful picture, I really don't want to destroy it," the little lady of the Li family sighed.

"The dishes are eaten on the table, and the little lady of the Li family doesn't have to mind" Dugu was kind and consoled, picked up the turtledove, picked up the silver knife and cut it into several parts, and the little lady of the Li family remembered what she said earlier that her heart and liver were not as delicious as the calf meat, and quickly shook her head, and picked up the cold spinach in the small plate, which tasted really good.

However, after tasting a few bites, the lady of the Xiao family tasted the dishes of the Xinglou, and praised Dugu Xinci's cooking skills, saying that it was more elegant and delicious than the Xinglou kitchen, which made Dugu Xinci very happy, and frequently raised her glass to invite wine.

Although everyone is half of the civil ministers, Dugu Zhen has led the army to fight for many years, but in his bones he is still the Confucian scholar Confucius and Mencius's Taoism, Feng Yuanyi hairpin Hua Tai Sui Xuanjing master has the title of general, but with Dugu Xinci's words to ridicule is to lead three or five hundred hairpins and flowers to fight three or five hundred thieves.

Wenchen is naturally not as enthusiastic as Wufu when he drinks, Dugu Xinci and a few guards need to fight when drinking, but Dugu Zhen and their table are as warm as water.

It's nothing more than a sentence about what kind of scenery you had back then, and you can drink a cup of wine; There will be no one who will say that if you didn't start first, you would marry so-and-so.

The most discussed is the repair of the Cao Canal that is about to start, arguing about the route of the new Cao Canal, Dugu Xinci does not intervene, and dedicates himself to frequently inviting wine and cloth dishes with the three big and small ladies and Xiao Heng.

Xiao Song repeatedly wanted to guide Dugu Xinci to explain Wannian County's support for the repair of the Cao Canal, but Dugu Xinci was perfunctory on the grounds that he had not yet made a field investigation, even if he said that it was unrealistic.

Han Xiu Shilang of the Ministry of Rites also repeatedly wanted to study Dugu Xinci's resignation, and Dugu Xinci pushed and shoved in every way.

The rest of the people who are familiar with the Dugu Demon Wolf dare not provoke him, and everyone is the same as the Jinshi, all of them are on the same list in the last years of the Wutang Dynasty, but the original champion Song Zhiwen is now unknown in life and death.

There are different opinions, and there is a tendency to recall the difficult years of the year.

After eating lunch for half an hour, Dugu Xinci and a few ladies fled from the table, they were all full, and a few people returned to the front yard lobby, Xiao Heng Langjun stayed with great interest to listen.

Dugu Xinci put out the tea set, and after a tea pouring process, the three ladies and sisters all had gold stars in their eyes, and then asked, and were dizzy by Dugu Xinci's tea ceremony, but everyone was still too full of food, and the two cups of tea were unbearable.

Dugu Xinci's eyes turned and proposed to play mahjong, the two eldest ladies were stunned, but the little ladies were at a loss.

"Far Eastern Hou is also a mahjong play?" The eldest lady of the Li family asked.

"Mahjong is a game that is beneficial to the body and mind, a lot of joy" Dugu Xin said shyly, the two ladies looked at the direction of the second hall, I don't know where a few memories of the bittersweet when, here chatting is better than touching two on the table?

Dugu Xinci's mahjong is not a mortal thing, this is a pair of jade mahjong, it is very cool to touch, but everyone drank some wine at noon, and the house is hot and dry, giving people a warm feeling.

Although the little lady of the Li family is young, she is also smart and clever, and she will find out the rules after a game, so Dugu Xinci naturally proposed to add color heads, and intimately took out a few silver coins to send to the little lady of the Li family to make this book.

Dugu Xinci is just boring to pass the time, and he doesn't need to bother with his brains, the two big ladies are also veterans of the Ma Tan at first glance, and the little lady of the Li family is a little excited, and she has forgotten about this cannibalism, and she has made a few rounds.

Until Xiao Heng was also kicked out at the beginning, Dugu Xinci took the opportunity to let him serve on the table, and he went to Wannian County for a walk, anyway, it was only a tea trip away from there, and it was a little bit of a show to show up.

The taxpayers of the county party lined up, think about it, 20,000 households are concentrated in these days, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is crowded, the snow in the courtyard was cleaned two days ago, and now it is quite dry, otherwise the mud will make people's hearts congested.

More than a dozen tables in the Cangcao room are lined up, all those who can write conversations are driven to the shelves, and they are very relieved to see that everyone is busy with no time to greet him, but he is afraid that his appearance of walking around will not be affected, so he is very considerate and leaves early, and then returns to the palace of Liaoyang County.

The mahjong in the house is still continuing, and several dizzy middle-aged officials are also collectively skipping work for half a day today, and they are drinking tea at the moment, and they don't know the taste of tea when they look like that, just to quench their thirst.

Seeing Dugu Xinci coming in from outside, Duguzhen asked if he knew that he was on duty, and he was very pleased.

When the day is near, the mahjong table is over, and they need to go back to their homes, and they need to be on the value tomorrow.

Dugu Xinci pretended to leave everyone for dinner, and they all shirked, which made him very hurt, could it be that lunch was not delicious.

Han Xiu Shilang and Zhang Jiuling waited for the edict to rely on the wine, saying that Dugu Xinci's dishes today have no new words and are very tasteless, so let him make up for it quickly.

Dugu Xinci was afraid that these two would stay at the dinner party after being entangled for a long time, so he said nonsense:

"The sun is waning in the lonely village,

Light smoke old tree jackdaw,

A little bit of Feihong.

Mountains

White grass, red leaves and yellow flowers. ”

The two pondered it, it was more appropriate than carrying the jade dragon to die for the king, "It's very expressive, but this is autumn, and now it's still a cold winter" Han Xiu Shilang commented, although he was the Zhigong Ju of the Dugu Heart and the Kind Scholars of the last year, but the term "master" has not yet become popular.

"In just five sentences, I wrote the autumn mood, and Tanhualang deserved its name," Zhang Jiuling commented more professionally.

The two were satisfied to leave the house, and Dugu's father and son sent them out, watching everyone leave the carriage before returning home.

"The heir of the king of Liaoyang County is worthy of his real name," the eldest lady of the Li family sighed in the car.

"Warm and thoughtful, full of talent, it is really worthy of being a first-class Tanhualang" The little lady also obeyed.

"It's just that the words are a little floating," the eldest lady of the Li family smiled, "The words of cannibalism can also be nonsense"

Li Yuanhong looked at his wife and daughter, and muttered, "A certain year ago, I heard that there was a recital in the imperial history, saying that there were barbarians in the Far East, who fed on people, and I was afraid that there would be something really wrong."

The ladies of the Li family were stunned.

At the same time, Xiao Song was also answering the same topic as his beloved son, "In the sixth year of Shenlong, Hailan Pao was surrounded by 150,000 Turkic soldiers and horses, and 50,000 Far Eastern feudal soldiers and wolf mercenaries were finally only left with more than 5,000

The eldest lady of the Xiao family almost vomited, and Xiao Heng was also pale.

"The glory of the Dugu family father and son is hard work in the dead pile, I can't wait," Xiao Song sighed. "One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither"

Not to mention the behind-the-scenes discussions of the guests, the father and son of the Dugu family also discussed everyone in the lobby.

"You are really interested, and you have heated the dishes three times in one meal," Dugu teased.

"It's been a long time since I've been so dedicated," King Dugu Zhen occupies the position of Dugu Xinci today.

"Three or five confidants, red furnace and green ants, it is also a pleasure, and it will be invited more in the future" Dugu Xinci said casually, making tea again.

"When you go to a certain kind of office, you can't say more than two words of greeting when you meet on the road on weekdays, let alone a party and a feast? Those people in the Goshitai have bright eyes, what about this? ”

"Then why are you so bold today?"

"There is your plague god town, and if you have a bright light armor to protect yourself" Duguzhen actually had the heart to make a joke about her heir, and seeing that she was a little depressed, she didn't explain, "But your nonsense today frightened the little lady of the Li family."

"It's not intentional, it's just right to say it, bless the little lady of the Li family tonight from having nightmares" Dugu Xinci said that it was just the end of the Li Mansion's marriage.

"Let it be, don't let some grandson wait too long," Duguzhen sighed.

"Can you have a son and have fun?"

"Fooling around"

"By the way, I'm afraid that your party is not just eating, drinking, and nostalgic, right?"

"Isn't it your article about the small troubles that you have at a glance?"

"Oh, the saint still remembers Mount Tai Feng Zen? Is it decided? ”

"Still figuring it out"

"You still need to find out, go to Daizong, at least the official is promoted to one level, who doesn't want to?" Dugu Xinci sneered, "It's just that a certain father and son are afraid that they won't have this good opportunity, and they are afraid that they are making wedding clothes for others again?" ”

"Hey, how many Chang'an celebrities and fortunes?" King Dugu also sighed, ending the topic.

Because tomorrow is planning to negotiate with the Wannian merchants and monks about the placement of lanterns, Dugu Xinci is a little simpler at night, and he does not drink alcohol for fun.

"What kind of lanterns do you need to place in the county palace of Shangyuan Festival this year?" Dugu Xinci asked at the dinner.

"Feel free to order" King Dugu didn't care.

"Then it's really casual, Uncle Qiu and others can find something to do and play by yourself," Dugu Xinci ordered at will.

"How can some clumsy person do anything?" Qiu Bin was a little stunned.

"What about you?" Dugu Xinci looked at Dugu Jia and the others again.

"I've done it in previous years, but I definitely can't get on the stage, why don't you teach the little prince?" Dugujia and others still call them little princes.

"A certain taught you and made lanterns, so I'm afraid that the palace of Liaoyang County will become a scene in Chang'an?" Dugu Xinci's shameless self-gold. "Just do it, Ah Dog has a certain true biography, let him guide it, this year's Shangyuan Festival County Mansion can't be the most beautiful lantern, but it can't be said to be the ugliest."

"Is it possible that the lanterns on Vermilion Street in Wannian County will overshadow Chang'an County?" Qiu Bin asked curiously.

"There is so-and-so, Chang'an County is the scum" unsurprisingly came to an arrogant conclusion.

"You will meet with the merchants of Wannian County and the people of the two realms of monks and Taoists tomorrow, and this is also for this matter?" Duguzhen also asked.

"That's right, the Lantern Festival needs the concerted efforts of the monks and laymen in the Three Realms to do it well" Dugu Xinci sighed, "The monks and the Taoists are competing and stirring up the disturbances in the Three Realms, so always find something for them to do and stop for a few days."

"You need to control your temper, and you can't do whatever you want when you come into contact with the monks," warned King Dugu.

"There are acquaintances with everyone in the Three Realms, don't worry, a certain has its own countermeasures" Dugu Xinci was quite confident, so the king of the county was no longer noisy.

There was nothing to say overnight, on the sixth day of the first month, due to the cumbersome affairs in recent days, Dugu Xinci deliberately packed up in the early days, and went out of the house with the king of Dugu County, today Dugu Zhen deliberately went from the north gate of Qinren Fang Fang to the imperial city of Shangshu Province, and there are only two squares apart, Dugu Xinci is closer, and the southeast corner of Xuanyang Fang is Wannian County.

Came to the county party, there were people in the county party who were earlier than the Ming Mansion, Dugu Xinci drank tea in the study, and found that Du Juan came out of the back house, and was very surprised.

"Is it okay for a certain person to move to the back house?" Du Juan despised this Shangguan who didn't care about his subordinates.

"Moved to the county office? Isn't it lively to go to a certain house? "Dugu is dissatisfied.

"If you are not your subordinate, you will not hesitate" Du Juan smiled bitterly, "I will often go to see the king of Liaoyang County, and you will make a few more delicious meals as compensation?" ”

"Okay, it's good if you're happy," Dugu sighed.

"You don't care how much tax you received yesterday?" Du Juan asked again.

"Well, how many did you receive yesterday?"

"It was too late yesterday to calculate the final amount"

"Thou hast molested so-and-so early in the morning?"

"You left early yesterday, and you are desperate."

"Hey, it's someone's turn to fight hard today" Dugu Xinci sighed, and Du Juan thought so.

There are two or three hundred large and small Taoist temples in Wannian County, and nearly 1,000 large and small merchants, of course, it is impossible for all of them to be present, but it is also crowded with the second hall, because the front yard also needs to collect taxes today.

A few real abbots with white beards sat outside, and the rest stood.

Dugu Xinci came in with two guards, a shuttle patrol, it was considered to give face, and there were many abbots who came, but the Taoist temple had a future, so that Dugu Xinci was very despised, no wonder he couldn't compete with Buddhism, Taoism was a small family.

: Riding a bull far beyond the former village, piccolo blowing across the ridge. How many Chang'an fame and fortune customers, the organs are not as good as you.
