Chapter 30

The palace banquet of the puja is no different from usual.

But people's moods will change with things and life. Even if you go to the meeting every year, the atmosphere will be very different.

Especially this year.

One is that in front of the iron-fisted emperor who can control the enemy with literary skills and martial arts, even if it is inevitable to talk about state affairs, it is just a trivial episode at the banquet.

It's definitely not the same as the previous "mad king", crying blood in front of the Buddha.

Baiguan is happy to be content.

The second is that today's food is really delicious, which makes this trip worthwhile.

Outside the Mahayana Palace, everything seemed peaceful.

The emperor on the dragon chair has troubles of being a father.

For a moment his eyes swept over the four children who made him frown, and Emperor Qing picked up a piece of crisp and put it in his mouth.

After a while, the gloom gradually dissipated.

Emperor Qing was surprised.

I was just trying to suppress the depression in my heart, but I didn't expect that this mouthful would be sweet on the tip of my tongue, and a special taste came to my heart.

The serving eunuch caught the sage's joy from the corner of his eyes, and he took a step forward and said in person: "The thing the sage said was Longjing tea cake, and the abbot specially invited the master to make it for today's event."

The eunuch and Shun Chong Ci'en were blessed together.

Ci'en returned the salute with a smile.

Emperor Qing nodded in agreement, not because Ci'en wanted to flatter him, but because he sincerely felt that the cake in his mouth was very beautiful!

"The taste is elegant, come to enjoy it together?"

As soon as the real dragon said it, Man Yan had no objection to it.

Lu Xiling has never seen such a scene, if she saw it, she would exclaim "good boy".

I have only seen people toasting and drinking together, but I have never seen people eating cakes together!

After eating the last bite, Emperor Qing even picked up the leftovers from the palm of his hand, just like a child stealing food and wiped off the leftovers from his hands.

"Why is the saint doing this?" Ci En apologized with a smile.

Emperor Qing pursed his lips slightly.

If he said that this thing is alluring, it reminds him of Heguang Chunri, the enchanted eyes of the girl when she blew away the mandala flowers.

It's embarrassing to blame.

Emperor Qing talked about him from left to right, and chatted in the name of food.

"Di Beihan, even a glutton sometimes can't eat green barley, fruits and vegetables. When I was young, I went up the Luo River, and a plate of fried Erdong was enough for a fool to be happy all day."

All the dibeierlang around did not realize it.

Emperor Qing talked about the beauty of winter bamboo shoots, and Ci'en remembered the spring bamboo shoots in the garden.

"The fresher the bamboo shoots, the better. The mountains and forests are beautiful and interesting. There are often freshly chopped bamboo shoots in the vegetarian restaurant in the temple." Abbot Ci'en said: "They are all cheap and small things. If the saints don't give up, they can stay in the guest house and taste the beauty of spring bamboo shoots." .”

"So good."

After all, he is a boy from the north, with a straightforward temperament.

But when it comes to cheap things, Emperor Qing thought about the refugees who followed him all the way south. At this time, he didn't know if they had a bite of the spring bamboo shoots in season.

Bai Wu cupped his hands and said: "My minister has asked Chen Su to lend money to the poor households with the Jieliang Department. Two stones per household, and another 30 yuan in hidden silver to help the poor households."

Bai Shu added: "To prevent the refugees from being lonely, the fourth brother has already expanded the thatched hut at the edge of the city with his sons and servants. Vegetables and salt have also been prepared. Father, you don't have to worry too much."

"Taxes and official purchases must also be monitored."

Bai Shu smiled heartily, and said: "These fathers and emperors are even more at ease, they are all under the care of the emperor."

In a word.

Emperor Qing nodded, and set his eyes on Bai Ye who was silent from beginning to end.

After taking a look at the worry-free second child, the depression in Emperor Qing's heart eased, but he remembered something again, and frowned unpredictably, showing a little depression.

"Ahem." The father cleared his throat, and asked as usual: "There are millions of refugees in the city, what good plan can Aye have?"

Bai Ye, who stayed out of the matter, raised a serious face.

"Since the Ministry of Households surveyed the situation of the people, many refugees from the north have the desire to return to their hometowns. My minister believes that such people can loan seeds and cattle to return to their hometowns to ensure that they still have something to rely on when they return to their hometowns.

As for the refugees who are willing to stay around the capital, they can be recruited as soldiers, or they can do public service for a living. "

Emperor Qing nodded and said warmly: "It makes sense."

Emperor Qing was not surprised by Bai Ye's answer.

His Erlang is thoughtful, has lived in this land for the longest time, and has a better understanding of how to survive.

but……

Emperor Qing stroked his beard and said, "Most of the refugees are old and young. Military households and public service are not long-term solutions."

"I don't know what the princess thinks?"

During the banquet, such a sentence popped out from nowhere.

Bai Fengzhi was so frightened that the pastry almost fell out of her mouth.

In the past, there were many princesses in power in the court, and there were even empresses, so it was very common for women to discuss politics.

Emperor Qing's eyes just happened to come over.

Countless pairs of eyes watched Bai Fengzhi like a sword hanging above her head, she couldn't even control her mouth.

"Daughter thought... thought..."

Bai Fengzhi became confused.

"If the business fails, the three treasures will be lost..."

"The king of Qi relied on merchants to protect the people, and Sejong was young when he sold tea, and realized the strategy of rejuvenating the country..."

"Therefore...so..." Bai Fengzhi lowered her head.

"Fantastic."

A loving voice came from the platform.

Abbot Ci'en nodded slightly, and continued with Bai Fengzhi's words: "I also hope that Your Majesty will not blame the old monk for his slip of the tongue, the old monk just felt that it is righteous for the princess to understand the people at such a young age, so I can't complain.

What the princess said is based on business, so that refugees can become merchants and integrate into the capital for self-reliance. The poor monk thinks that this method is safer than borrowing money, and it is really a wonderful plan to benefit all people. "

Emperor Qing's eyes lit up, and he was also very surprised.

Ci'en is the orthodox of the two terms of monarchy and law, and is quite flexible in political affairs.

Hearing what he said now, Emperor Qing felt that compared to Bai Ye's step-by-step method, Bai Fengzhi's method could be said to be a step up.

However, even if the old father is a saint, he still can't show too much.

Emperor Qing said with a subtle smile: "Feng Zhi was raised by me like a man. I expected to raise this heartless little Lie Ma for the rest of my life. I didn't expect that now my daughter's thoughts have become more refined, and she knows how to share her father's worries. gone."

"Father Tiger, how can there be a dog girl?" The serving eunuch greeted him.

Sitting on the edge of the platform, Mrs. Lu Guogong is from Emperor Qing's family, and she speaks more boldly than others.

Seeing that Bai Fengzhi's face was reddish, he couldn't help joking with the younger generation: "This year the princess is old enough, the emperor doesn't want to raise her, some Haoerlang are rushing to raise her."

Bai Fengzhi raised her eyes.

Emperor Qing laughed loudly when he was squeezed out: "Don't be fooled by her few words, it's all well-bred by the mother, but in fact it's still a disobedient pony."

Today, although hundreds of officials paid homage, it was not just the courtiers who were sitting below. The noble daughters of Pushe's family and the sons of the servants' family were also present.

Even though Bai Fengzhi's gaze was brief just now, someone with a heart still noticed the clue.

Mrs. Lu Guogong smiled and looked at the male relatives on the opposite side, and said: "In my wife's opinion, the princess is more beautiful than Huajiao, and only the gentle and modest son of the family is worthy of it."

Mrs. Lu Guogong's dimples sank in: "My wife is good to see Si Ye's son."

Bai Fengzhi's whole body suddenly became tense.

But the eyes couldn't help looking to the opposite side.

The son of Wu Siye's family was suddenly called out by name, and he panicked at first.

But after being a civil servant, he calmed down after a while and spoke steadily.

"Now that I have neither official rank nor meritorious service, how dare I miss the princess."

Who couldn't tell at the banquet that Mrs. Lu Guogong was deliberately holding a red line?

They knew better that the Wu family's eldest son was not incapable of hearing it. If he wanted to rise to the top, the son-in-law was the best choice to reach the sky in one step.

The garden was quiet for a long time.

Bai Fengzhi turned her head away.

It was just blushing just now, but at that time, even the eyes were red.
