Chapter 240: Undercurrents are surging

Zhu Biao's face was suddenly full of remorse, "We have only occasionally heard that if multiple farming cattle live together, they will fight with each other, and even kill each other, and they are not asked to slaughter the farming cows, how can they distort our words so ......?" ”

Zhu Biao is really benevolent, if this matter is put on Lao Zhu, Lao Zhu is afraid that he will directly stare at the traitor and scold the traitor.

Those old soldiers will inevitably be punished, and forty lashes are considered light.

"Alas!"

After talking for a while, Zhu Biao came back to his senses.

"Fourth, why don't you have a trace of surprise on your face? Did you already know about it? ”

Zhu Di hurriedly said: "Big brother misunderstood, how could I know about this in advance?" ”

"Fart ......"

Zhu Biao was so angry that he directly burst out foul language, "We still wonder why the old man said that there would be ploughing cattle fighting and dying, or falling to his death!"

They all looked weird, and even Jiujiang and Cao Zhen all looked weird! ”

"It turns out that it's not that old man who has an unpredictable prophet, but he was trained by these people!"

"Jiujiang, Cao Zhen, and when you are in Beijing, will you often do this kind of thing?"

Li Jinglong and Cao Zhen panicked,

hurriedly explained, "Your Highness has misunderstood, we will never dare to slaughter the ploughing cattle at will, otherwise Your Majesty will know about it, and you will definitely punish us severely!" ”

Zhu Di also followed: "Exactly, big brother, I don't dare to slaughter ploughing cattle on weekdays, but today those old soldiers learned that you came to inspect Beiping in person, so they slaughtered one ruthlessly, and specially picked up the wind and dust for you, so that you can taste the taste of beef!" ”

Zhu Biao stared at Zhu Di tightly, "Fourth, tell us honestly, how many ploughing cattle will fight and die every year on your farm?" ”

Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, big brother, I really don't like to eat beef, and I won't take the initiative to slaughter cultivated cattle."

Because, so many ploughing cattle are raised in the mountains, there will always be ploughing cattle who accidentally fall and fall to their death, or die in a fight, every one or two months, they can always eat beef! ”

"Alas!"

Hearing this, Zhu Biao couldn't help but feel helpless, and blamed himself: "In this way, it's still our sin."

Because of curiosity, we went to the farm and actually asked for the life of a ploughing cow?

How many acres of land can this ploughing ox plough for the people every year? ”

Zhu Di was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Big brother doesn't need to blame himself, even if the eldest brother doesn't go to inspect the farm, I will order a ploughing cow to be slaughtered to entertain the eldest brother!" ”

"Zhu Di, how dare you do this?"

Zhu Biao was furious, and said with a look of remorse: "We shouldn't have come to Beiping Mansion!" ”

Zhu Di said again, "Even if the eldest brother doesn't come to Beiping Mansion, if I am greedy, or want to celebrate the good rice, I will slaughter a ploughing cow!" ”

Zhu Biao couldn't help glaring at Zhu Di angrily, "Why do you always want to eat the ploughing cattle?" ”

Zhu Di said: "Big brother, as the king of Yan, I raise so many cultivated cattle, and it is not too much to eat one or two ploughing cattle that fell to death or died in a fight!" ”

Zhu Biao angrily reprimanded: "Fourth, slaughtering cattle is a crime, and those who deliberately kill other people's horses and cattle will be punished with seventy rods and one and a half years in prison;

and he that slaughtereth his own horses and cattle shall have a hundred rods;

If the ploughing ox dies of injury or disease, it will not be reported to the government, and it will be flogged forty times without permission! ”

Zhu Di said: "Big brother, the ploughing cow died by accident, and someone has already told the Yamen of Beiping Mansion!" ”

Zhu Biao looked angry: "......"

"Okay, okay, big brother, the ploughing cattle taste so delicious, I have so many heads on the farm, why not slaughter one?"

Zhu Di said with a smile: "Moreover, as a dignified Yan King, I have never bullied the people, nor have I been corrupt and bent the law, let alone like the second and third children......

Even, on weekdays, he also built schools, paved roads, and repaired some infrastructure, and he was completely a virtuous king......

It's just that if you get hungry by chance, it's not too much to eat a few bites of beef! ”

Zhu Biao let out a long sigh, if you compare Zhu Di with the second and third children, it is really not too much.

Moreover, Zhu Di is so greedy, the second and third are ...... And those gentry and magnates everywhere......

Thinking about it, Zhu Biao couldn't help but feel heavy.

……

After two years of training, those cooks in Yanwangfu have already made great improvements in cooking.

After the veterans and soldiers on the farm brought those chickens, ducks, pigs, cattle and sheep, all the cooks quickly made them.

Soon, the whole kitchen of Yanwang Mansion wafted with the enticing aroma of meat.

Subsequently, a plate of meat meals was served by a group of waiters.

Even, in there is a whole roast lamb, roast chicken, roast duck!

Sour, spicy, sweet......

In the entire hall, there was a sudden sound of swallowing saliva.

Zhu Di greeted with joy on his face, "Big brother, come, come, have a good taste!" Among them, most of the meat dishes are researched by Guo Qing, and the taste is a must......"

Zhu Biao put away his thoughts, picked up a piece of beef, and took a bite, his eyes lit up.

Immediately, a bunch of lamb was picked up.

"Hiss......"

It was spicy and fragrant, and I couldn't help asking: "Fourth, what kind of condiments are put in the mutton, and why is it so fragrant?" ”

"Big brother, it's chili!"

"Chili?"

"It's a spicy vegetable, and you can't eat it alone, but if you fry it in a dish, or use it to stir-fry meat, it tastes delicious......"

"Hoo ......"

"Compared to the food in your house, those in our East Palace are simply pig food......

At this time, Zhu Biao was already sweating profusely, but his face was full of excitement and he couldn't stop at all.

"Go back and bring us a hundred catties of chili peppers!"

Seeing that Zhu Biao no longer paid attention to the matter of cultivating cattle, Zhu Di also breathed a sigh of relief.

As for 100 catties of chili peppers, for today's Yanwang Mansion, it is a trivial matter.

"Big brother rest assured, he will order his subordinates to prepare in a while. However, the peppers are so spicy that you can only eat half a stick, or a small stick, at a time! ”

"Eat silently! Don't talk much, concentrate on eating......"

"Yes, big brother......"

At this meal, Zhu Biao's mouth was full of oil juice, and he was satisfied.

He wasn't wrong just now, the food in his East Palace was really inferior to the food in Yanwang's Mansion.

After the meal, Zhu Biao sat there with a big belly, not wanting to move.

Below, Li Jinglong, Cao Zhen and others were even more full of belly.

I sat there for a long time.

Zhu Di said to Zhu Biao: "Big brother, go, I'll take you to the bath and massage, you stay in the East Palace, don't talk about working all day, and you have to be watched tightly by a group of stubborn civil officials, you can't do this, you can't do that, it's too wronged......

You finally came to Beiping Mansion, and without those annoying officials around you, I will take you to enjoy it! ”

"Bath?"

Hearing this, Zhu Biao's eyes lit up.

Guo An, Zhu Fu and others below hurriedly got up and said goodbye to Zhu Biao and Zhu Di.

"His Royal Highness the Prince Qiqi, His Royal Highness King Yan, Weichen and others still have important things to do, so retire first!"

"Accurate!"

Zhu Di bowed slightly.

Suddenly, in the entire hall, only Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, as well as Li Jinglong and Cao Zhen were left.

Li Jinglong and Cao Zhen looked bitter, and they had no excuse to leave.

Zhu Di glanced at Li Jinglong and Cao Zhen, "You two go down to rest, let's discuss something important with the eldest brother!" ”

"Your Highness, the last general will retire!"

The two glanced at Zhu Biao and found that Zhu Biao had no objection, so they hurriedly got up and said goodbye.

And Zhu Di helped Zhu Biao to get up, "Big brother, let's go, this kind of fairy day, if you go back to the East Palace, you won't be able to enjoy it!" ”

Zhu Biao nodded reservedly.

Soaking in that pool for a while, and then being massaged for a while, it felt like his whole body was lighter.

……

At the same time.

In the political envoy department of Beiping Mansion, the command department of the capital, the envoy department of the inspection department, and even in the yamen of the Beiping Mansion, a group of officials sat in their respective yamen, waiting with anticipation on their faces.

Until a person ran in from outside the yamen with a disappointed face.

All the officials in the yamen looked at the man with expectant faces.

"What is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doing now? Can you give me an edict? ”

"Nope! In the Yanwang Mansion, there is no movement......"

"This ......"

"It's been more than an hour since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came back from the farm outside the city, why hasn't there been any news?"

"Ladies and gentlemen, is it because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has forgotten us?"

"Impossible, what kind of character is His Royal Highness the Prince, don't you know?"

"It's hard to make it, it's King Yan who ...... it"

"Humph!"

"No matter what, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally made a tour of Beiping, and under our governance, Beiping Mansion is so prosperous, such a good opportunity must not be missed!"

"Rest assured, the lower officials will go to wait outside the Yanwang Palace in person!"

"Good!"

……

At the same time, in a house in the Beiping Mansion.

A group of people, also gathered together.

Among them, two middle-aged figures carefully introduced: "The one who visited Beiping Mansion this time, there is only one Cao Guogong and one Marquis of Jingchuan next to him, and there is no one else...... Not even a civil official who can speak ......"

"Yesterday I came to Beiping, directly entered the Yanwang Mansion, and was taken into the Yanwang Palace by the Yanwang without meeting any officials in the Beiping Mansion......

Until today, I went out to the farm under the Yan Wang's mansion, and then returned to the Yan Wang Palace again......"

"There are officials from the Political Envoy Division, the Command Division, and the Inspectorate Department of Beiping Mansion who are guarding outside the Yanwang Palace, but they can't get in......"

"Then King Yan is so domineering!"

"Hmph, otherwise, why can I always control the Zhangjiawan Wharf, and even the trade fleet with Goryeo is tightly controlled in my hands, and I don't leave a mouthful of soup for us, and even drive me to wait......"

"This time, according to the Inspectorate and the Political Envoy Division, they will definitely be dissatisfied!"

"It's not just dissatisfaction, blatant rewards for officials for corruption, he doesn't give hundreds of officials in Beiping Mansion a way to live......"

"This time, even if King Yan can't be punished, he will lose his favor to him!"

"It's extreme, it's extreme!"

"Have you written your blood letters and pleadings?"

"Don't worry, Gong Li, I've already written it!"

"Tomorrow, that one is bound to meet with the officials of Beiping Mansion!"

"I'll send someone to give a copy of the certificate to the Inspectorate, and then send someone to hand over a copy to the person next to me......"

"It's best to hand it over to that person in public, so that King Yan will lose face!"

"Those old men have also been arranged!"

"When that one returns to the capital division, the Beijing division will all play Your Majesty, and he Yan Wang will not want to monopolize the power of Goryeo trade alone!"

"Great Good ......"

Inside the house, there was another secret discussion.

……

The next day.

Guo An is also a daily value.

In the Department of Long History, all the officials were on duty in the morning.

However, there are not too many major events today, and Guo An and Zhu Fu and other officials of the Changshi Division are still handling the government affairs of the palace as in the past.

In the Peiping Mansion, the envoy suddenly exploded.

In the main hall of the Inspectorate, they suddenly had a pile of pleadings, and even half of them were bloody.

Moreover, all the spearheads in these pleadings are directed at King Yan!
