Yuzhou has always been famous for mutton and beautiful jade.

Cattle and sheep have always been forbidden to be slaughtered by the imperial court livestock has always been only by those high-ranking and powerful people on the table, can only be seen all year round, if you want to see this kind of animal meat on the people's table, only when someone's cattle and sheep fall to death, or old and useless, will there be a family who can talk about the family to be rich, with money to buy, but also need to report to the management office.

It's okay for sheep, unlike the cattle used for farming, during the New Year's Festival, the state officials also turn a blind eye, and it doesn't hurt to kill a few, but with the opening of trade in Beizhou City by King Wu, a large number of your cattle and sheep were driven to the south, although the imperial court has not abolished the ban on cattle and sheep and livestock, but compared with the previous strictness, now only need to be within the number of livestock that can be slaughtered in each state limited by the imperial court, and the state officials will not ask more, and even with more and more livestock coming from the north every year, the imperial court no longer limits the number of livestock in the state capital, but has released various restrictions, and also let go of the people's mouths。

And Yuzhou, since the establishment of the Great Yan Dynasty, it is classified by the world as the division of the north and south, every year from the Beizhou City full of rich merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, will be here as a transit hub, will be from the Beizhou City Xingshi mobilized the public to exchange for the livestock, scattered to the states of Dayan, the states come to not only those small merchants who are distributed, but also attract a lot of gourmets who are fond of food to rush here.

It is said that these lambs from the grassland come up, every year from the North Courtyard to Beizhou, after a thousand miles of trekking, after arriving in Yuzhou, the most delicious, to the north too fat, to the south and too thin, only in Yuzhou can eat just right, fat and thin mutton, it is precisely like this, to create the world "cooking sheep out of Yuzhou", "sheep out of Yuzhou less than half fresh" a series of sayings, but also created "Yuzhou mutton alone in the world" reputation.

And the unique division of Yuzhou's continental boundaries has made the merchants and diners who come and go to this place in an endless stream, if nothing else, because they can eat a bite of pure and authentic Yuzhou mutton in Yuzhou, and at the same time, they can also watch the excitement while eating.

This is all thanks to the demarcation of Huainan and Jiangnan Province, as the top continent of the Great Yan Prefecture, Yuzhou is famous for jade and mutton, and the most talked about is whether the jade city of Yuzhou belongs to Jiangnan Province or Huainan.

When it is divided into north and south, it all originates from the Tianjiang River that does not see the beginning and the end, and the two sides of the river are divided into north and south, and the boundary between Huainan and Jiangnan Province also originates from this, there should be nothing wrong, but the problem lies in this Yuzhou.

The difference between the jade city and all the cities is that a small tributary of the Tianjiang River prefers to go straight through the jade city without dying, as if a heavenly knife in general, the jade city is divided into two halves, it is said that when the city was built, it was only a tributary of a small stream, when the city was built in general, it rained heavily in March, the city construction was interrupted, not to mention, when the construction started again, this stream has been about to be completed in the jade city, submerged most of it, a cadre of officials in charge of the city construction are waiting for the emperor to fall, when the young emperor of Dachu, but there is no anger at all, but he rewarded all the officials, but also issued an order, not allowed to fill the river to build the city, but let this not big or small river pass through Yuzhou.

According to the division of the 29 continents of the world by the imperial court that year, the division of Yuzhou made hundreds of officials argue endlessly, some said that according to the laws of the Great Qin thousands of years ago, Yuzhou should be under the jurisdiction of the Huainan Palace, and some said that it should be divided into north and south today, and Yuzhou should be divided into Jiangnan Province, and the two sides insisted on their own words, but Zhao Jing was a little troubled by these voices.

Only Li Ting, who was sitting on the prime minister's seat and taking a nap, seemed to be disturbed by a dream, and said casually, "Look for Lao Tzu, a knife is split in half, and one person is in charge of one place, is it possible to be in such a place, and it will not be possible to fight again?"

Later, there was a position in the history of one continent and two thorns in Yuzhou, and the jade city was even more peculiar, the imperial court only managed to divide the continent, but regardless of the ownership of your city, the jade city that was divided into two by the tributaries of the Tianjiang River became an unclear area.

Although the jade city is not big or small, and there are not so many taxes that can influence the taxation of a continent every year, but the Huaizhou that was almost grabbed by Li Ting in the past has made the Huainan Wangfu lose a lot of face, and it is unlikely that this jade city will be given out again, as for Jiangnan Province, the Zhennan general Chang Yulin, although Zhao Xiong is a serious vassal king, and there are 300,000 Huainan elite horsemen under his hands who claim to dare to fight with the Li family's group of evil tigers, but Chang Yulin is not a simple person, not to mention that Jiangnan Road has 100,000 spearmen left over from Dachu back then, even the 50,000 black armor heavy horses, are not ordinary goods, So everyone knows that this Chang Yulin has never bought the accounts of these vassal kings, I will not give you what you want, if you don't want it, hey! Lao Tzu will accept it, this temper is estimated to have something to do with Li Ting's entanglement back then.

Therefore, Yucheng can be seen all year round, on the north side of the river, a team of fierce Huainan elite horsemen look vigilantly at the rows of arrogant spear foot soldiers on the south side of the river, but whenever they are on the eye, although they are still a little scruple about dancing knives and guns, but they take off their armor and are shirtless, and it is common for them to scuffle on the spot, until both sides leave the scene with blue noses and swollen faces.

So on both sides of the river, there are a lot of restaurants and mutton restaurants, and the windows near both sides of the bank are specially dismantled into courtyards, just to let those diners and rangers who come to see the two groups of soldiers fighting each other while eating mutton, which makes those who are tired of listening to the travelers who are not telling stories or singing songs in the restaurant feel very novel, and they have been boarding the restaurant in an endless stream, taking out the money for mutton, and seeing the scene of martial arts, who will hesitate?

In the restaurant, on the slightly wide table of the Eight Immortals, there are mutton cooked with various condiments, Li Zi is sitting precariously looking at the mutton that Xiao Er is still serving in front of him, looking unmoved, but the crystal hara at the corner of his mouth, and slightly shrugging his throat, but it betrays his mood at the moment, until Xiao Er brings up the last plate of dry fried lamb and exits the room, Li Zi looked at Li Bad hesitantly, with an inquiring look in his eyes.

Li Bad's eyes finally glanced at the plate on the table when he saw Li Zi, rolled his eyes, remembered the surprised look of Xiao Er and the shopkeeper when they saw Li Zi enter the door just now, and asked curiously: "I said Li Zi, you don't have anything to taboo?" I heard that you Taoist priests don't eat four, why haven't I seen anything you don't dare to eat?"

Li Zi swallowed his saliva and said embarrassedly: "Master said that I am still young and don't need to know so many rules, so Master didn't let me taboo it, and said that I can eat whatever I want, but I am not allowed to be extravagant and wasteful." ”

Li Bad laughed and said, "Then did your master say that he is not close to women?"

When Li Zi heard this answer, he instantly looked at Li Bad with a flushed face, and he didn't know how to answer.

Li Bad laughed, "What are you afraid of, otherwise, Li Zi, if you fancy a girl from any family in the future, you just have to tell me, I will find a place for you, and keep your master and brothers don't know, how about it?"

Hearing Li Bad's teasing, Li Zi buried his head lower, and said something in a voice like fine lines, Ren Li Bad pricked up his ears, but he didn't hear what he said, and he estimated that he didn't dare, he wouldn't say something like that, Li Bad stopped teasing him, picked up a bowl of mutton soup handed over by Murong Qing, and drank it.

As soon as Li Zi saw that Li Bad was no longer teasing himself, he instantly swept away the embarrassment just now, grabbed the chopsticks and ate them directly, no matter what the dish, he was stuffed in his mouth, with a look of concentration, and he shook his head at the old white on the side.

The mutton that has just entered the winter, combined with the clear soup boiled out of the big white radish in winter, instantly forced the winter cold out of the body, and a warmth slowly rose from the abdomen, straight to the heart, spreading to the whole body, very refreshing.

Murong Qing looked at Li Bad with some confusion and said, "What's wrong? Is it not the right appetite? I think it's good, it's fresh and doesn't have the nasty smell of mutton." ”

Li smiled and pinched the tip of Murong Qing's slightly sweaty small nose, and said, "It's not that it tastes bad, it's just that there are these foods in the Northland all year round, and I have long been used to eating them, and I don't think it's anything unusual." ”

As he spoke, he shouted to Xiao Er to come over and said, "Xiao Er, go and call your shopkeeper to come here." ”

Xiao Er looked at this son who seemed to be dressed unusually, and then looked at the two beauties beside him, and when he heard Li Bad's voice, he felt a little drumming in his heart, and asked with a bitter face: "What is the guest officer dissatisfied with?" But tell the little one, if the shopkeeper knows, the little one's salary this month will be a few points less." ”

Li Bad waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you lose this job, I just want to ask the shopkeeper something." ”

Xiao Er looked at Li Bad with some hesitation, and saw that Li Bad no longer cared about himself, so he had to walk out of the box and look for the shopkeeper, no way, this son doesn't look like an ordinary person, and it's better for him to talk less, but the sugar man he promised to buy for his sister this month is gone.

Li Bad, who didn't care about the little Jiujiu in Xiao Er's heart at all, habitually picked up the chopsticks, gently knocked on the eaves of the bowl, and was about to hum those little tunes, but Murong Qing patted the back of Li Bad's hand that picked up the chopsticks, glanced at him slightly, and said, "There is no virtue in eating." ”

Li Bad smiled when he heard this, and put away his paws in a curt, "Qing'er, if you look at your brother's appearance, you don't think my virtue is good haha!"

Murong Qing turned her little head, glanced at her brother who was in the wind, sighed softly, and said, "I don't think it's strange that my brother didn't come back to eat and look funny." ”
