Chapter 138: Meatballs

Of course, Ji Nan would not ask Qi Qin about how to deal with the matter of this inner house as soon as he came up, and he would definitely come to inquire about it in a roundabout way.

What's more, Qi Qin has always understood the affairs of this officialdom very well, and his tone is tight, so he will not say anything to the outside world, plus his relationship with Qi Shu, his identity is here, no matter how he says, he will also help.

So, when Ji Nan found out that Qi Qin had a top trick, he drove Qi Shu and Ning Ze away without hesitation. What's the use of asking for them?

Originally, I thought that I wanted them to come to the house to have a look, and by the way, I would help talk to them, and it would be easy to talk to each other.

Unexpectedly, it was self-defeating, so that it broke up unhappily!

That's it, he shouldn't have invited them over today, what a mistake!

Forget it!

So, Ning Ze and Qi Shu, who were inexplicably pushed over to watch a good show, could only go out to eat some wine together after the two of them left the prince's mansion, of course, Ning Ze was a treat.

Qi Shu didn't want to agree to him, but he had to say that there was a new store in Shaoliang City, saying that it was exotic food, which made Qi Shu a little curious, so he wanted to try it by the way.

Regarding whether Ji Nan was going to find her father, Qi Shu didn't want to intervene anyway, anyway, Ji Nan didn't seem to be a person who would do anything irrational, so it was okay to let it be, anyway, it was impossible to really open his mouth and ask him what to do if he had two wives at home who often quarreled.

Everything is very normal and very orderly, the officers and soldiers in Shaoliang City patrol every day, guarding the city gate one by one, guarding the safety of the royal capital.

Although the Wei State did not close its doors at night and did not leave its roads behind, it was also very prosperous, and there was no regression under the governance of Yanmo, but the progress was also slow.

If it weren't for the windfall after the war, the Wei State might still be very poor, and the people could not say that they were living and working in peace and contentment, and now their lives are thriving.

Liu Ruofeng is the one who can feel this close to the lives of the people.

Some time ago, Liu Ruofeng was very resistant to being a soldier guarding the city, but now he can get by if he gets used to it, all of this is thanks to Qi Shu's advice at the beginning, if it wasn't for her proposal, how could Liu Guogong send him to defend the city for no reason?

It's one thing for the Liu family to have weaknesses, and it's another thing to really hope that Liu Ruofeng can get better.

withstood the pressure of the whole family, Grandpa Guo forced Liu Ruofeng to guard the city gate for several months, and he is still guarding it.

It's already summer, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day.

Liu Ruofeng's sisters-in-law often took turns to send him things, and the people around him had some strange eyes on him, and after a long time, he also felt that this was not good, so he often refused to let his sisters-in-law come over, but they still didn't listen to him.

I feel sorry for my little uncle, I run to the city gate several times a day, and I want to send food and drink to Liu Ruofeng when I go in and out.

Liu Ruofeng was previously teased by the soldiers who were guarding the city, saying that there were no women and only sisters-in-law. But they themselves are mostly poor bastards who can't afford to marry a wife. Therefore, if everyone has no wife, don't laugh at fifty steps and take a hundred steps.

There are many children who are about the same age as Liu Ruofeng, all of them are not yet adults, most of them have to come over to be soldiers because their families are poor and have to come over to defend the city because they can't go to the battlefield, in the words of the old soldiers, they are just soldiers!

But it was with these soldiers that Liu Ruofeng saw many things he had never seen, what the lowest level of people looked like, and what he was like in the upper echelons of society.

He didn't read much, and his father, brother and sister-in-law never restricted him, but they just let him learn this and that, and if he wanted to learn, he would learn if he wanted to, and if he didn't learn, he would be wasted, causing him to do the same thing as reading books and studying, and it was easy to give up halfway.

He always only reads the books he likes to read, some interesting essays, stories, popular novels, scripts and plays, and he reads everything.

But he doesn't like to read it lately, and his sisters-in-law sent him books to relieve his boredom, and he didn't read them all and threw them back. The people in the Guogong Mansion only said that Liu Ruofeng had changed his temperament, and he didn't even read his favorite interesting article.

In the past, Liu Ruofeng had two hobbies in this book to relieve boredom, one was the heroic writing of dancing guns and sticks, walking the rivers and lakes, fighting righteousness, squandering wealth, robbing the rich and helping the poor, and the other was anecdotes, funny, absurd and ridiculous articles. I liked it in the past, I don't like it now.

Not long ago, sleeping on the Chase bunk across from him, a man he thought was a brother, was gone.

Liu Ruofeng was a little uncomfortable, he felt that his brother's death was inseparable from him.

The reason is this, not long ago, before going to bed at night, several people from the Chase shop were gathered together. A group of people in Hulala gathered at Liu Ruofeng's bunk, and the blocked water could not be drained.

Why is it blocked?

It is precisely because Liu Ruofeng can tell some funny stories, and he can take out different ones every day for a month, that the soldiers will pester him to tell him a story when they can't sleep at night.

At the beginning, I listened to one or two, but after a long time, the big guy found that what Liu Ruofeng said was indeed quite interesting, which often caused everyone to laugh.

As a result, more and more people listened to him tell funny stories.

Not only these people who slept on the Chase bunk, but some superiors also ran over to listen after they found out.

Over time, this became a habit.

One day, Liu Ruofeng suddenly remembered a funny thing, which was about the emperor of the previous dynasty. He happened to hear this from his father Liu Guogong, so he told everyone in a ridiculous way.

The emperor of the previous dynasty was surnamed Zhu, named Zhu Baiba, and he looked like a pig. Greedy for food and sleep, ignoring political affairs, the number of times he went to court was counted on five fingers a month.

At the beginning, the court was quite able to hold on, and it was okay if you didn't go to court for a while, but you can't always go to court, right? It is only a matter of time before traitors gain power, and some things in this world cannot be seen at once.

It's like fruit, some of the fruit is rotten and can't be seen from the outside, and when you cut it, you realize that the inside has long been rotten. This front court also looks good, and the building will tilt when it is said.

The Yanguan who recorded this incident always felt that the * that led to the fall of the previous dynasty was that when Zhu Baiba was in the twelfth year of his reign, Zhu Baiba was the emperor for a total of 18 years, and he was overthrown by the first empress Ji Wei.

In the twelfth year, there was a flood in the southern territory of the former dynasty. Hundreds of thousands of people were left homeless, starving, and thousands of miles of corpses, and the victims were on both sides of the roads, rivers and lakes. The listener is sad and smells tears!

How many urgent letters rushed to Kyoto in the starry night and flew to Zhu Baiba's side, and the advice of the old ministers was like a sharp knife, almost piercing Zhu Baiba's eardrums.

The most heard sentence is that the people are going to starve to death! The people will be starved! There is no food! Didn't eat! Yizi Yiyi is happening all the time, and it is by no means sensational!

Caring for the people, Sheji is naturally very anxious, and he can't sleep all night, and his hair is gray in a hurry. And those evil traitors don't care, they still have fun all day long, and do evil!

After withstanding the stormy exhortations of those loyal ministers of the court. Zhu Chongba had no choice but to go to the court to deal with the matter in person.

Everyone thought that the saint was going to open a warehouse to release grain, and they couldn't help but feel sad and joyful when they thought that this living person was saved.

But to their surprise, things did not go as expected, Zhu Baiba did not directly say how much money he wanted to allot, and even pursued the officials, which was also shocking.

"Can't you eat meatballs without rice? Don't you know how to work around? Are you dolphins? ”

The dolphin is Zhu, in order to avoid secrecy, the pigs of the previous dynasty are called dolphins.

Zhu Baiba stood in the court and pointed to the sky and said that such a major disaster was so simple for him to say.

Even said that if there is no rice, why don't you eat meatballs? You'll be full when you eat meatballs!

When an elderly minister heard him say this, he vomited a mouthful of blood in anger, threw himself back, and fell unconscious.

Zhu Baiba's words shocked the government and the opposition, how much does this emperor have to know how ridiculous the people's livelihood is to say such a thing?

Ridiculous and ridiculous!

It's a ridiculous joke!

Some ministers were directly stimulated by Zhu Baiba's laughter, and resigned on the spot. is about to resign and go home, those are all old ministers of the two dynasties!

Zhu Baiba didn't even look at it, and directly shook his hand to let him go, don't be an eyesore in front of him, if you want to go, hurry up.

A minister with a strong temperament directly crashed to death in the court, and the startled people hurriedly hid around, covering their eyes and not daring to look.

Zhu Baiba was also taken aback, and hurriedly beckoned people to drag the body down, don't disgust him in front of him.

Some courtiers who usually like to oppose these old ministers also dare not make mistakes at will, and wait and see the development of the situation.

"That's it! Tell them to buy more meatballs for them to eat, and stop their mouths! Zhu Baiba said. The ministers were all trembling, not daring to say anything more.

The "meatballs" incident was recorded by the historian, and the whole country was ridiculed, and the dead and wounded of the loyal ministers of the court and the wounded ran away, all of them had no nostalgia for this Zhu Baiba, only discouraged! The saint is mediocre, and the whole country is ruined!

When Liu Ruofeng described this past in a colorful way, he did not forget to carefully describe what this meatball looks like, how smooth it is in the mouth, how bright the color is, and how attractive the aroma is.

has earned enough saliva from everyone, and it is really gluttonous.

I don't know why, Liu Ruofeng casually mentioned which one in Shaoliang City made meatballs that are really superb, but the price is also extremely expensive, and ordinary people can't afford to eat them.

Liu Ruofeng himself often goes, but later he learned that the cost of a meal for him is the income of an ordinary family for nearly a year. I didn't go much after that.

However, what he didn't expect was that someone would actually follow his instructions to find the store. It was the brother on the shop opposite Liu Ruofeng.

However, the brother knew that he couldn't afford to eat, so he didn't think about going to the store to spend money openly, but chose to sneak into the store in the middle of the night while patrolling, just to find the meatballs.

No one knows why he went back.

However, he went in standing and came out sideways, because he was mistaken for a thief, so he was beaten to death by someone with a stick, and he didn't know until the next day when the government received the news.
