Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 1177 Mid-Autumn Festival

In the side hall of Cuiwei Hall, Li Yuan looked at the proud Li Shan with some dumbfounding, and said to Li Shimin on the side: "How to deal with being proud of sin?"

Li Shimin glanced at Li Shan, who was stunned, and said briefly: "The crime will be punished by one degree."

Li Shan was also speechless. It was just some beef!
I spent so much effort to make braised beef, garlic minced beef, braised steak, oxtail soup, and beef brisket hot pot, in exchange for a penalty?
There were not many people attending this small banquet. Apart from Li Yuan and Li Shimin and his son, there were only two little guys, Chai Shao, Li Daoxuan, Xiao Yu, Su Dingfang, Chai Zhewei and Li Yuanjia.

Chai Shao, Li Daoxuan, and Xiao Yu were all members of the clan or close relatives of Li Yuan. Su Dingfang was granted the privilege because of his contribution to rescuing the driver at the last moment.

In addition, there is another person, the former Yanzhou Road marching commander You Qianniuwei General Dou Gui, who just arrived at Renzhi Palace this afternoon to meet him.

"Last year, His Majesty promulgated the "Wu De Law", and those who are good at killing cattle will be sentenced to one year." Xiao Yu said with a straight face. While investigating Yang Wenqian's rebellion case, he had always disliked Li Shan... Although Li Shimin privately I tried to persuade him, but he was a stubborn man.

"He fell to death." Li Shan said calmly: "My leg was broken. Should I leave it to die?"

"Did he really fall to death?" Li Yuan picked up the chopsticks and tapped Li Shan with a smile, "Do you believe it, Shi Ze?"

"I don't believe it." Dou Gui immediately shook his head and said: "Last year, the army was stationed in Baiquan County. The Liang thieves sent envoys. I and the Lingzhou Road Marching Commander Shi Xihe County Duke Wen Yanbo couldn't find them. I found out that Huairen and several others were nowhere to be found. My friend is hiding in another house..."

Dou Gui sighed, "It's hot pot... Your Majesty may not know, but His Highness the King of Qin must know."

"Well, put a charcoal fire under the soup pot, boil the thinly sliced ​​beef and mutton, wrap it up and eat it, it's quite delicious." Li Shimin thought about it for a while, and smiled: "It's also an industry in Sun Moon Lake, in a place in the West City The restaurant, and that restaurant was given to Huairen by the Jingzhao Du family because of Yu Hu Chun."

"Oh, it's Du Yan?" Li Yuan said cheerfully: "What else does Huairen have to say?"

"It's definitely not an unauthorized killing!" Li Shan said seriously: "Reporting to the Baiquan County Government Office certainly isn't an unauthorized killing."

Today's law stipulates that killing a cow is not a crime, but killing a farm cow without permission is a crime. Since the crime was reported to the county government, it is naturally not killing without permission.

Dou Gui, who knew the situation best at that time, said quietly: "I remember Baiquan Ling is your best friend Li Kai."

Li Dao

Li Shan glared hard at Li Daoxuan, who said indifferently: "I remember that Zhang Wuan once mentioned in Baiquan County that even though he took over the Turks in exchange for Yugushe's horses and cattle, you still killed them. It is said that a calf with a broken leg is eaten with gusto.”

"None of your business!" Li Shan snorted, "That's also blackmail..."

"Yes." Li Daoxuan chuckled and said, "I heard the Qinghe County official once mentioned that on the last day of ten days in Mayi, you and Yu Sheshe drank wine and ate cattle?"

Li Yuan also remembered, "Yes, yes, Yuan Qing also mentioned that after eating meat and drinking wine, he would fight back that night."

After everyone laughed for a moment, Li Shimin coughed twice and said, "Huairen must not be greedy in the future. Cattle are important weapons of the country. If you kill cattle without permission, your punishment will be increased."

Li Yuan didn't care. "The revision of the "Wude Code" will be done by Erlang himself."

Li Shan complained in his heart that he did not dare to take law in the scientific examination because there was no serious law at all at that time. It was not until the beginning of last year that the "Wude Law" came out, but after checking it, he found that it was not the same as law. "Kaihuang Law" is basically the same.Everyone sat down and began to eat. Everyone ate every dish with gusto. The older ones like Li Yuan and Xiao Yu liked plain beef. Li Shimin, Chai Shao, and Su Dingfang, who had good teeth, liked braised steak and beef brisket. The two children liked it best. Love braised beef.

Dou Gui liked every dish and ate it with great enthusiasm. He said with a smile: "Huairen has learned a lot about cooking. He is even good at cooking."

Chai Shao said: "Before dusk, your Majesty gave the cakes. Many colleagues asked each other and said they were delicious."

"Is it also done by Huairen?"

Li Shan was too lazy to pay attention to these people's teasing, and fed the two children with braised beef.

"When I returned to the capital this time, Shi Wen was transferred to Shu Ling, and the scholar was appointed as the right servant of Shangshu Province." Li Yuan put down his chopsticks and said softly: "How is Sichang's injury?"

"I can barely walk." Chai Shao glanced at Li Shan from the corner of his eye.

Li Yuan pondered for a moment and then said: "Then let Pingyang temporarily control the Beiya Imperial Army, with Duke Zhao as his deputy."

Su Dingfang stood up and said that he was not unfamiliar with this as he had been ordered to control the Beiya imperial guards and take charge of the imperial palace the year before last.

"We will set off in three days." Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin, "After returning to the capital, Erlang will move to Tiance Mansion in Jinchengfang first. There is no need to build another residence."

Li Shimin's face was calm, and Xiao Yu's face was quite happy. Dou Gui turned his head and glanced at Li Shimin. The battle for the throne that had lasted for many years was finally coming to an end. Unexpectedly, the prince lost two points last year and this year, so that King Qin turned defeat into victory... ... There is no need to build another residence, which means that Li Shimin will soon replace Li Jiancheng as the East Palace, probably within this year.

However, Dou Gui is also happy to see the success. He has also been under Li Shimin's command for a long time and participated in the Battle of Qianshuiyuan and the Battle of Luoyang.

"As for Huairen..."

Li Shan, who was feeding Li Yuanjia, raised his head and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask Zhi Yan of the Tiance Mansion to have this portrait erected."

"Yan Liben?" Li Yuan thought for a moment and asked, "Is it the Yan family in Henan?"

"Yes." Li Shimin explained: "His father, Yan Bi, was a young eunuch in the Sui Palace and was given the title of Duke of Shibao County. His mother is the princess of Qingdu in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. His brother Yan Lide is now serving as the imperial minister."

"Oh." Li Yuan reacted immediately, not because the imperial attire he wore was made by Shang Yi Fengyu Yan Lide, but because he remembered that his maternal ancestor was Yuwen Yong, Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. This man was a ruthless and powerful man. The temporary Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed by this man.

"That's him." Li Yuan looked at Dou Gui and said with a smile, "Prince Zhao, Shize, and Huairen entered Lingyan Pavilion first."

Chai Shao quietly glanced at Li Shan. In fact, he has been hesitant about the list of heroes of Lingyan Pavilion in the past two months. His Majesty has not made up his mind. However, Li Shan took the initiative to bring up the matter at this time, which seemed to be a favor. Arrogance, on the other hand, is actually a measure of advancement and retreat.

The portrait is provided to Lingyan Pavilion. Although it is not enough to reward him, it is reasonable.

And Li Shan thought in his heart that after returning to Beijing this time, he really couldn't take care of anything except Pei Shiju's side... Just last night, Li Shimin asked Ling Jing to send a message that Li Yuan intended to send Zhang Zhongjian to the Lingzhou Road Marching Army. Steward.
