Chapter 124



In the fifty-second year of Kangxi, there is actually another very important thing, but in Su Li's opinion, it is a very unimportant thing, that is, the sixtieth birthday of Emperor Kangxi. Since fifty-one years, he has made all kinds of preparations for the old man's 600,000th birthday, and the old man has checked everything one by one, and will make orders and make amendments. Anyway, just like the current founding of the People's Republic of China for many years, gift programs, birthday gifts, and auspicious events have emerged in an endless stream in various places, and even Su Li sometimes laughs when she sees the newspaper when she cleans up the desk for Yin, please! Is it good to be the Emperor Kangxi, if you don't have knowledge, you have to have a little common sense, and he also believes in this kind of child? Originally, I thought that this matter had nothing to do with herself, the matter of the birthday ceremony, Fujin and Nian's would handle it, she never looked for something for herself, but she forgot that if you don't look for something, things will look for you. Sure enough, in the first month of the Qianqiu Festival, Yin brought back the will, and the banquet of Qianqiu was co-organized by Su Li. Su Li thought about it for a long time, looking at Kangxi's next will, although he knew that it would be very valuable to get it in 2009, but now it is a representative of trouble!

"The ......"

"Again...... There is only one prince in this mansion! Yin was also very annoyed this time, no one harmed Su Li this time, it was the old man who remembered it himself, so he directly asked Li Dequan to make an order, and he didn't discuss it with anyone at all.

Sixty years old, how can it be a big feast, let Su Li do it, of course, it is the importance of Su Li, but think about it, this is also a big risk, how many eyes are staring at it now! The third child looked at the clouds and the breezy and put on his literati temperament, but I heard that these days I have been currying favor in front of the old man, too, the eldest has been circled, the second has been abolished, he is the head of the brothers, and he always and everywhere shows his "eldest son" demeanor, I heard that the old man's birthday banquet will be placed in his garden, isn't it obvious to let everyone know that the most important person for the old man is him now? If Su Li is really allowed to enter the palace to help at this time, can't he be a thorn in the side? If you drop a plate at a birthday banquet at this time, you will lose your head. How many heads does Su Li have to play like this?

"I know, but master, this is a big banquet in the palace, and there are so many rules that it scares people to death, and Li'er can't carry it on her back, so let Li'er co-organize. Of course, the old man probably meant that Li'er was only in charge of the kitchen, but you must know that the kitchen menu is not Li'er's decision......" Su Li stammered her defense.

The Qing Palace's strict hierarchy and elaborate etiquette are simply over all the dynasties in history, saying that they are people outside the country, they also pay special attention to etiquette, when Su Li was in the palace, he was really scared by them.

Under the strict etiquette system, the formal banquet and dining process attended by Kangxi was even more strict and orderly to the point of perversion. Take your seat into the tea. The music played, the banquet was unveiled, and the wine was raised. Food, rewards, etc., are all carried out in a fixed program.

The number of banquet tables, styles, table decorations, dim sum, fruit boxes, group meals, cold meals, hot meals, etc., as well as the shape and name of the utensils used in the palace banquet, are strictly regulated and differentiated. The old man Kangxi wants to use the golden dragon banquet table. On both sides of his seat, there are a table of heads, two tables, three tables, etc., the left and the right, the queen, the concubine or the prince, the bailor, etc., all of whom are seated in order of status and status. The old man took a seat. Out of the seat, into the soup, into the wine and food, all have music accompaniment; The ceremony was very solemn and solemn; The etiquette is quite cumbersome, and everywhere it is necessary to reflect the "imperial road", "monarch's way" and "official road" of the monarch's dignity and humility.

In the arrangement of seats, the old man's throne and banquet table are located in the middle of the north of the banquet hall, and the prince, elder brother, concubines, nobles, Mongolian princes, Eju Taiji and others are listed on the east and west sides of the banquet hall according to their grades.

The tableware and dishes on the table also vary from person to person. The Manchurian aristocracy had a marriage relationship with the Mongol aristocracy before entering the customs. Huang Taiji's five concubines are all Mongols and have the same surname. All of them are the boudoirs of Mongolian nobles. Therefore, at the court banquet of the Qing Dynasty, the Mongolian princes were treated with first-class food, and the Eyu Taiji and others were treated with second-class food.

The first-class meals are made by the imperial dining room, and each table has a bowl of sheep silzhan (minced meat), a bowl of roast mutton, a bowl of goose, a bowl of rice, three plates of meat, a plate of steamed food, a plate of stove food, two dishes of snail box side dishes, and a bowl of shredded mutton soup. The second-class meals are made by the dining room, and the dishes are slightly less varied than the first-class meals, and the changes in the varieties are: a bowl of goose is replaced by a bowl of rice, and the rice is replaced by roe deer meat.

Later generations often say: "The flag man has a lot of courtesy". This can also be seen in the Qing court banquet. Everyone at the banquet knelt down to the emperor and thanked him. It is an example of the etiquette of the Qing court banquet. Wait for the emperor to take his seat. Endless kneeling and knocking begins. Such as the emperor giving tea. Let the people kneel and knock; The master of ceremonies gives tea. All will knock; Finish the tea. Let the people kneel and knock; The minister toasted before the emperor. Kneel three times and bow nine times; Others such as pouring wine. Return. Finish drinking. Music and dancing and so on. Kneel and prostrate. The banquet is over. Everyone should kneel and bow and thank you until the emperor returns to the palace. The whole banquet. And they were to kneel thirty-three times. Knock ninety-nine times. It can be described as stretching the muscles and exercising the waist and neck!

Look at Su Li, the ground is colorless. Yin can only be strong and calm. Clear your throat. "You don't have any jokes. The will has been given. What else could it be? The master has already told Li Chenda. Will find a safe person to help you. And again. Since you know that the old man only asks you to be in charge of the affairs of the imperial dining room. Don't come out. Don't interfere with other people's lives. ”

Su Li knew the meaning of Yin's words. If you are only in charge of the imperial dining room. Then only the old man's table and the Mongolian prince are in charge of her. Anyway, it's dead. Kill only the imperial dining room. Be sure to keep in mind what your friends say. Talk less. Deal with this matter with a non-practical attitude. Otherwise, a few heads are not enough to be cut!

Things can't be changed. Then she has to bite the bullet. I carried the baby into the palace. First she had to be familiar with the rules. Know the workplace process. Then it was customary to draw the diagram. Write a proposal. Coordination arrangements were made for the manpower assigned to her and the work to be done. And wrote a detailed plan. There are also contingency plans. This is in modern times. Write the ground every quarter. She's also very familiar with it. Finished written. The heart will have a bottom. It would be nice if you just managed the kitchen. The kitchen field affairs have nothing to do with her. Think about asking people to go to the room and call Yin. Concubine De held the baby and watched her write a piece of manuscript paper. Shake your head.

"What a big deal. Look at the land you can. ”

". Now Li'er is not seeking merit. But ask for no fault. Such a big deal. It's really bad for the old man's elegance. Li'er really didn't have a pity to die. It's okay if Li'er is dead. Isn't it a shame for the mother? Su Li smiled and drew two beards for the baby with a brush by the way. The baby wants to wipe it. But the more you rub it, the dirtier it gets. Su Li couldn't help it. I like to watch the baby eat turtles. It's a bit of a child. It's not fun for a while. I drew two more glasses frames for the baby. It's even more funny.

"Bring a basin of water! You are really, the fourth child is going to be angry when he sees it. Concubine De hurriedly hugged away, but looking at the baby's appearance, she laughed, just Yin came in in a hurry, and was just about to salute Concubine De, but she saw the baby with a black face in Concubine De's arms, and the baby was wrinkling his face and rubbing his sleeves on his face. The sleeves are black, and the baby's face is like a little flower cat.

"Ye auspicious!" Su Li hurriedly put down the pen and jumped off the kang to salute Yin. Yin glanced at her, hugged the baby, honestly saluted Concubine De, grabbed the wet cloth handed by Mingxin and carefully washed the baby's face, the baby looked at his father gratefully, but did not dare to have the slightest dissatisfaction with his mother. After the baby's face was washed, Yincai handed the baby to Mingxin and asked her to take it down to change her clothes, and she looked like something with two sleeves black.

Concubine De smiled busily. "Li'er is playing with the baby! You too, how old is the baby, how lively it is. ”

"E-Niang's instruction is yes!" Yin hurriedly got up to respond, Concubine De was so bored, so she had to smile, "I'll go play with the baby, you can talk to Li'er about serious things!" ”

Su Li didn't dare to delay any longer, and was busy showing the plan she had made to Yin, and she had gotten used to it in the past few years. Ask Yin's opinion before doing things, how to say that he is also a scheming person, and he is better than thinking about himself.

Yin saw it quickly, and he also went through the things in the inner court, and he was more familiar with Su Li, and after looking through it, he looked for it again but didn't find what he wanted: "What about the fold?" ”

"What?" Su Li didn't know that she still had to play a fold, although she had been reading a book for the past few years, but she asked her to write a fold in classical Chinese. It's better to kill her. What's more, is the slave she co-organized qualified to give the old man a twist?

"Twist and turn! You don't think you can do what you want, do you? The dishes at the banquet are to be granted by the old man. What flavor is used, what shape is used, and what plate is used, you must report to the old man, even if someone says irresponsible things in the future, the old man will not really blame you. ”

Su Li's sweat! Of course, she knows that she has to report, just like she has to show the leader after writing the plan, and after reporting, if there is something in the future, the leader will bear it. She understands this rule, but she didn't expect it to be such a thing, and she actually asked the old man to see it himself? secretly slandered in his heart, he really didn't look up to him, he was the small section chief of a state-owned enterprise! In fact, the original leader of Guan Suli was really a small section chief.

Under Yin's guidance, Su Li wrote an excerpt and wrote down his arrangements in detail. When the handwriting was dry, Su Li thought about it and turned his head to look at Yin, "If I give the fold directly to Li Chenda, will it make the third master feel that I have exceeded my authority, and make him feel that the master is currying favor with the old man?" ”

The most important thing in the modern workplace code is not to report to the next level, and Su Li still feels that it is unwise to give the old man a direct excerpt.

"You're not afraid that the third brother will rob you of your credit?" Yin couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect Su Li to think of this, he knew that Su Li's folding like this would make the third child feel uncomfortable, but she forgot that she was facing everything to make a decision with a sacred heart, Emperor Kangxi! If she gives the fold to the third child, I am afraid that the old man will be more suspicious.

"Forget it, it's really meritorious, the old man summoned Li'er to question, but he was afraid that he would either die or be injured, and Li'er would rather let the third master rob it. Safety first, and the safety of the master is also the first. ”

"But how do you give it to the third brother? After a few hands, it will be transferred to the third brother? In the end, I'm afraid that the old man will blame you for procrastination! Send someone to hand it over to Li Chenda, saying that you don't understand the rules, and ask him to hand it over to the third master! Yin glanced at her.

Su Li thought for a while, laughed, and printed a big lip print on Yin's cheek while holding Yinxue's baby. How else can it be said that Yin grew up in struggle! I couldn't think of such a good idea, Li Dequan was responsible for the coordination of these things, and it was completely normal for her to give Li Dequan the excerpt. But if it is through Li Dequan's hands, naturally, the old man will know what the cause and effect are, she followed the normal procedures, and Yin stopped the third child's interception.

"High, really high!" Su Li gave Yin a thumbs up, Yin really didn't want to pay attention to her, and hurriedly went to the mirror to wipe her face.

"That's right, that, the old man won't go to the prelude to Li'er, right?" Su Li was still a little afraid.

"He's busy, and even if he looks for you, it shouldn't be for this little thing, so if the old man looks for you, unless you make a big mistake, it shouldn't be something else."

"Don't scare Li'er!" Su Li's face was really frightened, and Yin laughed.

In fact, he just met Kangxi, Kangxi was in a good mood, and he didn't know which one killed a thousand knives in order to make the old man happy, and he actually fooled a thousand old people over sixty years old to go to Beijing to celebrate the old man's birthday.

How smart the third child is, he said that he should also invite some old ministers! The old man felt a lot at once, and said which people died, and which people were how many and how old they were...... It's really a reminiscence of the past eventful years, who cares if others love to hear it or not!

Anyway, when Yin went out of the door, he only felt that his head was as big as a fight, the Qiansu banquet was not fun, the first thing was the safety issue, if he moved in the Forbidden City, mixed in one or two assassins, he couldn't hurt the old man, but other concubines and princes couldn't afford to hurt him; The issue of diet, and what to eat, eat one or two, just wait for the officials to impeach themselves; There is also the problem of entertainment, which is nothing new, people look down on the royal family, and by the way, the old man looks down on himself; What if you are overjoyed, happy and sad, and one or two die? Finally, there is the question of timing. The old man was happy, but how long could he hold on? In the end, some old people are just afraid that they won't be able to see the old man, so what should they do if they make trouble?

Su Li silently listened to Yin's complaints, thinking about it, she only remembered the Qiansu banquet in the sixty years of Kangxi, sixty years after ascending the throne, rare in ancient times, since she wanted to do a special event, of course, it was done, and there were no days left to live, I didn't expect that she would do it at the age of sixty, and now she didn't have a computer to check with Aunt Baidu, so she could only resign herself to fate, and gently leaned on Yin, maybe snuggling with each other could comfort the two people who were under great pressure.

Kangxi's 60th birthday is March 18 of the 52nd year of Kangxi, and preparations have been made since the first year, earlier than Dai Duo went to the book.
