Chinese dining table

Chapter 188 The Weird Family
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I was asked by this humble minister."

Li Zhi looked at Yunchu and said, "You asked for it? Since you can ask Yinggong, why don't you ask for a bigger official position?"

"Because Weichen has just studied hard for three years from the Taixue, and was lucky enough to participate in the Grand Competition, and was lucky enough to win. In addition, Weichen has made minor achievements in the country in the past, so he thinks that he can still be competent as a seventh-rank county lieutenant."

"Do you know that Li Yifu and Chu Suiliang circled a big nine characters on your paper just after you finished writing it?

Do you think you are worthy of this nine characters? " Li Zhi took a step forward when he said this, almost staring into Yunchu's eyes.

Yun Chu took a step back humbly and said: "If Li Yifu is not Weichen's benefactor, Weichen's test paper should be ranked among the top three."

"Oh? Do you really have such a talent?"

Yunchu looked down at Li Hong's dark eyes and said: "Jinchangfang has allowed His Majesty to visit many times, which is already a good example, even if the paper that Weichen answered in Sifang Pavilion is not good.

Your Majesty thinks how well you answered the paper called Jinchangfang in front of you? "

Li Zhi looked at Yun Chu for a long time before saying, "Bold! I'm here to ask you, are you responsible for the two rotting corpses hanging on the lotus pond in Dongshi?"

Yun Chu saluted and said, "Exactly."

Li Zhi said angrily: "The world is peaceful and the universe is bright and bright. Why do you want to do such things?"

Yunchu took another step back and saluted, "Feng Zhong, the garrison supervisor, swallowed a total of 130 yuan of special funds for the reconstruction of the saline-alkali land in Hama Mausoleum, and Zhao Sanlang, a subordinate official, corrupted seventeen soldiers from Wannian County by impersonating him and painting his name. The auxiliary horse purchase amount is [-] three consecutive.

Chen discovered this problem when he checked the Wannian County money bank, grain storehouse, and Liucao account books.

The two were ordered to make up the money embezzled by them within two days. As a result, they were given a chance to make amends, but they hanged themselves that night.

The minister thought that when a person dies, the money and food of the greedy ink must be returned to the public, and in order to deter those who come later, the corpse will be hung for punishment. The minister thinks that there is nothing wrong with it. "

After hearing what Yunchu said, Li Zhi looked back at an official who was holding a pen and taking notes at any time. The secretary Cheng nodded slightly, indicating that what Yunchu said was well documented.

"Even so, you can use other methods. Why did you use such rough methods in Chang'an?"

Yunchu saluted again: "Because I grew up in the Western Regions, I haven't learned any good ways to shock people's hearts. Moreover, I think that there is no better way than hanging corpses."

Li Zhi thought for a while and said, "Oh, since it's an official matter, it must be done in an official manner. I will forgive you for your innocence."

Although Yun Chu didn't know where he was guilty, he still thanked him with a salute: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En."

Li Zhi looked back at Wu Mei, who was potbellied, and said to Yunchu: "There must be a good life, since the two of them have failed the court and I, I have to be kind.

How about this, let me repay the missing 330 pennies for them, and after you go back, untie the rotten corpse for a good burial. "

Yunchu didn't think it was a good idea for Li Zhi to do this. If Li Zhi's wish was fulfilled, wouldn't it mean that he was a villain for nothing during this time?It took me a lot of effort to make the people of Wannian County feel that it is right to abide by the law. If Li Zhi did this, wouldn't he be back before liberation?

Yun Chu cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty is merciful, I am inexplicably grateful, but the family members of these two people have already arrived, and I have already recovered part of the stolen money, and the other part of the money and food. I only need to sell the family members of the criminals to make up for it." .”

Li Zhi's brows were immediately frowned, he didn't expect to encounter a contradictory seventh-rank official here.

At this time, Wu Mei said from the side: "Your Majesty wants to pray for the child in my womb. I am very grateful. If for this child, you make Your Majesty forget the rigor of the Tang Dynasty, it will not be beautiful. Concubine I thought that His Majesty bought the offender's family with a reward and then released him, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds."

Li Zhi ignored Wu Mei's words, continued to look at Yun Chu and said, "Is there no room for negotiation in your eyes?"

Yun Chu shook his head and said: "If even legal standards need to be discussed, I will not know what rules to follow in order to continue to be an official."

"Okay! Remember today's words for me. I don't hope that one day, because you violated the law, I hope that I will forgive you.

Since you follow the law, then continue. The family members of criminal officials should be sold, sold, and killed. I will not act rashly. "

Yun Chu clasped his hands again and said, "Your Majesty's instruction, I will keep in mind." After speaking, he wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and Yun Chu burst into tears like rain under Jiang Mo's urging.

Li Zhi was very satisfied with Yunchu's reaction, so he specially rewarded Yunchu with the fisherman he stole from the Xiaoshui landscape in Jinchangfang.

As for the young Li Hong, he held up a handkerchief on his feet to wipe Yun Chu away, tears streaming down his face.

Li Zhi looked at Yun Chu who knelt down to accept Li Hong's tears, and sighed, "Don't forget today's favor!"

Yun Chu was inexplicably grateful, although Li Hong had already wiped away his tears, it might be because Jiang Mo got into his eyes, which caused his tears to flow down continuously until, under Wu Mei's contemptuous eyes, the water from the canal He rubbed his eyes fiercely, so that he could not continue to be moved by Huang En.

After the dispute just now, the communication between the red-eyed Yun Chu and Li Zhi became smoother.

Every plant and every tree in Jinchangfang was made by Yunchu, so no matter what Li Zhi asked, he could speak clearly and plainly. With such an expression, the contempt in Wu Mei's eyes Only then gradually dissipated.

When I came to visit the canteen, even Li Zhi was shocked by the nearly two hundred dishes displayed in the canteen and was speechless.

Several people came to the noodle stall first, Li Zhi looked at the no less than twenty dishes of noodle in front of him, and asked Yunchu.

"These are all pasta?"

Although it was nonsense, Yunchu still pointed to the nearest bowl of noodles, and told the emperor about its recipe, taste, production cost, and even the selling price.

After some calculations by the two of them, Li Zhi was very satisfied with the profit of only one and a half copper coins for a bowl of noodles.

"In this way, such a huge canteen, even if it is open all day, the benefits are very little."

Yun Chu smiled and said: "Your Majesty does not know, the reason why the price of this bowl of noodles is so low is to allow poor people to come to Jinchang Fang to eat a bowl of noodles. It is very important to eat a bowl of noodles in a big restaurant in such an environment as Changfang.

Back in my hometown, I can brag to my neighbors for a long time.

However, for a rich man, how can such a bowl of noodles be worthy of his identity, so..."

Yunchu brought a bowl of beef brisket from the steamed vegetable area, a bowl of braised mutton, a piece of red-boiled braised pork, and a bowl of pork balls.

After a bowl of noodles was put together with these four dishes, Yunchu pointed at the bowl of noodles again and said, "At this moment, the price of this bowl of noodles has more than tripled."

Li Zhi frowned and thought for a while, "You mean to say that this bowl of noodles is worth a single price, only a mere three pennies. If you put it together with these fats, it will become ten pennies?"

Yun Chu said with a smile: "Your Majesty is wiser, for those with little money, eating a bowl of noodles for three Wen would be very cost-effective.

Even a rich person who eats these four kinds of fat together, let alone this bowl of noodles for three pennies, is suspected of looking down on others.

Not only did the guest not appreciate it, but he also thought that this bowl of noodles was worthless, which lowered his status. "

"Hahahaha..." Li Zhi burst into a burst of violent laughter.

Although Yunchu knew where the point of the joke was, Li Zhi's exaggerated smile still baffled him, but the people around him, including Wu Mei, were all laughing, so he could only grin along in embarrassment. .

Seeing Yunchu smile, Li Hong, who had been keeping his face on his face, opened his mouth and laughed. This smile made Yunchu suddenly realize that this child is really good-looking.

In fact, this is just nonsense, Emperor Taizong and Empress Wende, these two people are the dragon and phoenix recognized by the Tang Dynasty.

Although Li Zhi looks a little weaker, but his facial features are a bit weak, he is also very handsome. As for Wu Mei, even with a big belly, she is the most beautiful pregnant woman Yunchu has ever seen. If such a child is not good-looking Only then did the ghost come out.

At first, Yun Chu really didn't want to pay attention to this child who died of a sudden illness in his twenties.

The more affection I pour into this child at this time, the more sad I will be when the child dies in the future.

If you want not to be sad, don't touch too much from the beginning.

"Yes, yes, this is how business should be done. Earn little or no money from the weak, and take more profits from the extravagant. This kind of business is happy.

It's a pity that many people's business in this world is reversed. They take more profits from the weak, but take less or no profits from the strong. It's really absurd, absurd. "

For Li Zhi's words, Yun Chu believed that he was speaking from the bottom of his heart.

Sitting in his position, to be honest, his interests are actually the same as those of ordinary people.

If the country is peaceful and the people are well-being, he, the emperor, can be at ease. If the country is full of wars and the people rise up, he, the emperor, must be the most uncomfortable.

After seeing more than 200 delicacies, Li Zhi didn't have any intention to taste them, but the strong man behind him, who was as strong as a bear, ate all the way after walking all the way.

However, this bastard never eats food one by one properly. Instead, he took the chopsticks and tried the meals on the long table one by one. Whether it is what he likes or not, he will Take a bite with chopsticks and taste it.

After admiring these dishes, Li Zhi couldn't help admiring: "Is this the famous long table banquet in Jinchang Fang?"

Yun Chu smiled and said, "Exactly."

Li Zhi said again: "The people treat each other with such a feast, even if the soldiers fight hard, they will have no regrets."
