When Yuwen Hu was still persistently giving Li Tai eye medicine in front of Yuwentai, Li Tai took advantage of this rare leisure to feast his old friends in Beijing at home, mainly Li Mu, Tian Hong and other colleagues from the former military governor's mansion.

In the wide hall, Li Mu looked at his son Li Ya with a complicated expression and skillfully cut the mutton with a knife.

But the question is, whose father will be relieved that his son has this craft, especially Li Mu's family. He entrusted his son to Li Tai, it was for the sake of talent growth and hope to become successful, not to let his son learn to be a cook!

Of course, he doesn't know, the standard of being a cook here in Li Tai is higher than being a third prince, and Li Mu can't do it if he wants to.

"South of Wuguan, there should be more rice and fish, right?"

He raised his mouth a little vaguely, and Li Ya, who was cutting meat seriously, suddenly became interested when he heard this: "Aya wants to eat fish? I'm even better at this, and the generals all praise the fish made by the son is a must in the north and south! It's just that there aren't many river fish suitable for making fish chest, so I wonder if there are any preparations in the palace?"

Li Mu's face suddenly darkened when he heard this, I am working hard for the boss, you cut fish for the boss, how did Lao Tzu give birth to you scum!

Li Tai didn't know the little Jiujiu in Li Mu's heart, he picked up his wine glass and greeted the few people present and said with a smile: "In the past, he was relatively unaware of him in the mansion of the working together, but now he is divided into all parties, and it is rare to see him at every turn, but now I finally have to get together, you don't have to save wine and food for my family!"

When everyone heard this, they all laughed and raised their glasses.

Li Mu glanced at his son who was still humming and cutting meat on the side, and his heart was even more unhappy, and he said to Li Tai again: "It's rare for guests to come to the door to bother, of course, they want to eat and drink to their heart's content, but the host should not be too stingy, just give shabu to cook!"

After Li Tai heard this, he realized that this guy was distressed about his son, so he smiled and said, "Duke Wu'an, don't worry, you will definitely have a good time today!"

The area of the food table in front of each person is limited, so the dishes can only be served one by one, and after each dish of shabu shabu appetizing, if you like it, you can continue to keep the shabu-shabu, and if you don't like it, there will be new dishes.

Because Li Mu expressed his dissatisfaction before, he received key care, and brought him three plates of new dishes at a time, which were silk yam cubes, hanging frosted perilla leaves and bamboo tube dumplings dipped in sugar, the main one was full of sugar.

Although these three dishes were common home-cooked dishes in later generations, at the moment, they give people a sense of freshness and amazement that transcends the times, so that Li Mu didn't dare to eat them directly.

"Ayah, eat! This is all uncommon food in Guanzhong, if you don't come to the general's house as a guest, where to find it? Sweet!"

Li Ya couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she saw her own Lao Tzu looking like a fuss and dirt buns, so she urged in a low voice on the side.

Li Mu glanced at his son first, and then carefully picked up a piece of the most familiar bamboo tube steamed rice, and when he saw his son hand over the small snack box containing sugar, he also shook his head and said, "Don't use salt!"

Li Ya was even happier when she heard this, and she couldn't help but sprinkle the sugar in the food box on the zongzi and then stuffed it into his mouth.

Li Muzi was a little resistant, but thinking that this kid should not poison himself in public, so he also opened his mouth to bite it, and after a little chewing, his eyes lit up sharply, and he even sprinkled a lot of sugar and ate it, ate three bamboo tube zongzi in a row, and shouted with some unfinished thoughts: "Come again!"

Seeing this, the others also tried it, and soon a series of exclamations of praise sounded in the hall after a burst of chewing. Different from the magnates on the Southern Liang side, the poor people on the Western Wei side who had never even seen Shi Mi were greatly shocked after seeing the white sugar at first glance.

In fact, when it comes to their status, of course, there is no lack of sugar in the diet, but the sugar content of white sugar is higher, and the taste is clearer and more obvious.

now

The meals at this banquet are all made of sugar as the main condiment, because Li Tai is going to sell the sugar back to Guanzhong next, and these powerful people are undoubtedly the main target customers, of course, they must be instilled in the diet.

As for whether this kind of eating habit is healthy or not, why should it be so healthy? They all already have money and status, they should eat and drink, and they should quickly reopen their accounts to promote the redistribution of resources, so that latecomers can take the position in advance, and the rich people still play health, which is particularly anti-social.

Although these people couldn't stand eating a sweet and greasy meal, and in the end they didn't drink the wine, and they all held the bitter tea to relieve their greasyness, but they were still full of praise when it came to the sweet and delicious meal just now.

Of course, Li Tai invited them to the banquet today, not just to take care of their food and drink, since the brothers have already eaten and drunk enough, of course they have to do business.

So he coughed twice and cleared his throat, and then said, "I should be happy to be rewarded again when I return to the country, but there is still something in my heart that does not vomit and is unhappy!"

When everyone heard this, they immediately pricked up their ears, wanting to hear what had made General Li so displeased.

"This time, the Ming monarch came to the dynasty, the state affairs were restored, and the masses were able to increase their official ranks, which can be described as rejoicing inside and outside. But the Lord is the only one who has worked the hardest in this, and the result is nothing, do you think about it?"

Li Tai looked at everyone again and sighed and said, you dogs have no conscience, and you have gained benefits, but you don't want to think about our boss and how much he has no money.

After hearing this, everyone suddenly came to their senses, and nodded again and again, but then they were a little confused: "Now the Lord is already a high master, and the people are extremely powerful, if you want to go further......

It's just that when the words came to this, everyone didn't dare to continue, although they were just a group of martial artists, they also understood that some things could not be said casually.

Li Tai saw that they looked uncertain, so he said with a smile: "In the early years of the Great Unification, the lord Xiangfu Emperor Wen established the rule of Guanxi, and Emperor Wen originally intended to reward the lord of the famous king, but the lord did not dare to live in the honorary position with the imperial industry Xin'an and the surrounding areas were not appeased, although the matter had to be stopped.

But this time is not the same as then, who can reach the credit of the Lord to help the community? If you don't award a matching position, who can be at ease with the meritorious people in the country? I have been on the border for a long time, and I don't know much about state affairs, but I still have this awareness, and you have been standing for a long time, but you don't speak directly, and when will you wait!"

Li Tai also inquired from King Guangling and learned that the last time Emperor Xiaowu was abolished and Emperor Wen was supported by the Yuan Bao Torch, the first emperor once wanted to canonize Yuwentai as the king of stability.

However, at that time, the Kansai regime was not firmly established, coupled with the fact that Yuwentai's own power was not strong enough, and there was also the need for united front work from all parties, as well as Gao Huan, a powerful minister with a different surname, Bohai Wang's new ugliness of chasing the king, and other reasons, Yuwentai did not dare to ask for a position too much, so he resigned.

After this resignation, there was no better opportunity in the future, so Yuwentai has maintained the title of Duke Anding until now.

Li Tai originally thought that Yuwentai had not tried to win the prince, because his so-called Togu reform had restrictions in this regard, or he himself did not have similar needs, so the matter has been shelved.

However, after learning about it, this so-called restructuring is just a skin-changing game led by the overlord, and there will be no restrictions on Yuwentai's position.

As for saying that Yuwentai does not have this need, it is even more impossible. A powerful minister is especially necessary to distinguish himself from other courtiers, the need to list himself alone, what praise is not named, entering the court is not trending, adding nine tin, etc., all over the body has to show that we are different!

Soon after the death of Yuwentai in history, there was an attempt by Zhao Gui, Dugu Xin and other Yi Qiang ministers to rebel, although it is not excluded that Yuwen Hu made the first move, but it also shows that these people have a great threat to the power inheritance of the Yuwen family because of their long-term reputation.

Therefore, Li Tai concluded that Yuwentai needed a name mark that was different from other pillar countries, and the reason why he did not take the initiative to fight for it was because there were many reasons.

Li Tai wanted to maintain a good relationship with Yu Wentai before the Battle of Gangneung, so it would be much more effective to run a prince for this really cheap old man than to say 10,000 beautiful words. I'm working so hard to help you build momentum, if you want to get me back, you

Wait for another eighteen years to be reincarnated and come back, and no one will be willing to persuade you!
