Yipin Tianxia

Chapter 318 Dou must be rich

Seeing how handsome his father was, attracting so many people to peek at him, Nianfu felt rather proud.Don't look at her father who can't see her, but she really has nothing to say about her demeanor, even if Ouyang Kang comes, she has to be compared.

When Mu Shaoqin saw his daughter, he asked, "Where's your mother? Where's your grandma and grandpa? Are you all right? There are rules in the palace, so why aren't you used to it?"

"It's all fine, all right."

Seeing him coming, Hui Niang introduced Ruan Hanyan again, Mu Shaoqin smiled lightly, and Ruan Hanyan walked away knowingly.It's just that looking at the almost peerless King Ping at such a close distance, he blushed a little bit.

When the people walked away, Nianfu joked, "Father is quite charming, even such a young girl blush when she sees you, mother, you should take good care of him, don't let others take advantage of your loopholes."

Madam Hui snorted and said with a broken smile, "Nonsense! How old is that girl, she is enough to be your father's daughter."

Mu Shaoqin also said angrily, "There are a lot of people here, so it's not a place for joking around."

Nianfu regretted his slip of the tongue, stuck out his tongue, and stopped talking.

There are many rules for foreign ministers to receive banquets in the palace, but the royal family members are more casual.Even the seat layout is no longer set up with those male and female guards, and they are basically arranged together according to their relatives and distances, which is not too rigid.

Because of Mu Shaoqin's high status, he was newly crowned king, so Nianfu's family was directly arranged under the dragon chair, very close to the emperor, queen, and queen mother, and the food served was naturally the best .

Nianfu tasted the leg of lamb just served and found it delicious, so he brought it to the two elders of the Shi family, "Grandma and grandpa, try it quickly. This is well done. It's crispy and rotten, not smelly, and it doesn't cost much at all." Teeth."

Father Shi gave his wife some chopsticks, and he picked up a piece to taste it himself. He nodded in praise and said, "It's really delicious. Can you make it when you go back to Nianfu?"

Nianfu smiled and said, "Where do I have so many skills? This mutton tastes so good, it must be that the imperial chef has spent a lot of effort."

Mu Shaoqin laughed when he heard that, and turned around to explain. "This dish is called sheep's arm. It has always been a famous dish in the palace. It is the most suitable to eat this season. If you like it, Dad, I will ask someone to serve another."

But old man Shi shook his head and said, "I don't know how hard it is to make such a good thing. It's enough to taste it. It's a pity to waste this oil soup."

If it weren't for the scruples about being in the palace, Father Shi would have wanted to stick out his tongue to lick it.

Aunt Shi saw his intentions, and casually took a piece of the noodle bread next to her as a staple food, spread it on the oil soup on the plate, and handed it to him, "Isn't this not a waste?"

Daddy Shi chuckled, "You still know how to live." He took it without politeness and ate it.

It's just that the Empress Dowager Mu felt very indecent looking at this eating.But looking at the emperor again, she didn't say anything.

Unexpectedly, someone from the palace sent another plate of untouched sheep's arm.Said, "This is sent by the king of Chu."

Nianfu looked up, but saw a man in his thirties looking at their family with a friendly smile.It was Gao Changzhong, King of Chu, his face was very honest and honest, he must have seen that the two elders of the Shi family liked it, so he sent it specially.

Only after chanting blessings did he smile and salute, but someone beside him said harshly. "Brother, if you want to send mutton, you should also add noodles. Otherwise, what should you do if there is oily soup left?"

The Mu family's complexion changed, and they looked at that person again, it was Jin Wang Gao Changxiao.

He didn't intend to offend the Mu family, but he originally wanted to be this good person, but he didn't expect to be preempted by his elder brother, so he felt upset and wanted to embarrass him.It's just that while talking, Father Shi was embarrassed first, holding the noodle cake dipped in oil soup in his hand, whether to eat it or not to eat it.

Empress Dowager Mu watched from above, her face darkened by a third.Dog meat is not allowed!Look at this relative, how embarrassing it is?

Mu Shaoqin's face darkened, and he was about to speak, but his daughter laughed.

Grabbing Grandpa's hand, he generously bit the bread in his hand and ate it. Wang Jin smiled and said, "Thank you King Jin for your concern, but I still have this bread at home, so don't bother King Chu to bring it again."

She looked at the palace man next to her and said calmly, "My family has enough of these dishes, and I don't need to serve any more, so as not to waste them."

King Jin smiled awkwardly, "Little aunt is frugal, but the palace is not short of such things, right?"

Queen Wang glanced at Gao Xian's expression, but said, "I think what my sister said is very true, Fudang cherishes it so much, Ai's family doesn't need to serve food anymore."

She suddenly got up and bowed to Gao Xian, "I have another merciless request. If there is too much food in the imperial dining room today, can you send people out of the palace to help the poor? Although it is the power of a praying mantis, it is not enough to stop the car." , but it is always a little bit of our heart to help."

Gao Xian's eyes sank, and just when Empress Dowager Mu felt that the queen was too petty and couldn't help but want to say a few words to her, Gao Xian said, "What the queen said is true, I'm sure. Pass the order, and from today From now on, I don’t need to have those quotas for my food anymore, just reduce it to enough to eat until I get through this natural disaster.”

As a result, the situation on the court immediately reversed.

Those who originally looked down on the Mu family no longer dared to look down upon them, and those who originally wanted to see the Queen's jokes were secretly startled.

Mu Shaoqin stood up and gave a deep salute, "Your Majesty is wise! As a relative of the emperor, I didn't make any contribution, but just bought some food to support the common people with the salary given by the emperor. The emperor loves you so much, he was awarded the title of king and rewarded you. I really feel ashamed to benefit my family. Now that the emperor wants to share the suffering with the people, I am also willing to stop receiving the family's salary from today until the disaster is over."

Hiss!

Many people present gasped, they didn't even take their salary, this King Ping had done too much to get back face for his father-in-law and his daughter!I'm afraid that if he takes the lead, many people will have to agree even if they don't want to.

Sure enough, King Chu and King Qi stood up hand in hand, "Father, my son and minister are also willing to stop receiving salary until we get through this natural disaster."

The king of Chu is not in good health, and his family has a small population, so he doesn't have much expenses.King Qi manages his family well, he is low-key, and he is fine without a salary.Right now, King Jin is on the contrary, who knows that he likes to be rich and extravagant the most?Suspend his salary for several months.I'm afraid King Jin's life will be difficult.

But now that the situation has reached such a point, could King Jin still escape?So even if he didn't want to, King Jin gritted his teeth and stood up, "My minister is also willing to stop receiving salary and help each other in the same boat."

Just for one more word and less money.King Jin almost regretted it to death!

Mu Shaoqin sneered quietly in his heart. He didn't care about things before, and there was no one he wanted to protect.Right now, she dared to bully his daughter and father-in-law in front of him, if she didn't teach him a lesson.Then he is a father and a son-in-law in vain!

Are you afraid that he will have no money if he loses his salary?joke!This is the most indispensable thing in Prince Ping's Mansion.After Gao Xian pacified the world, he confiscated many old things of Mu's family and returned them. Coupled with the rewards from the palace, the richness is unimaginable. Otherwise, why would Mrs. Tan be reluctant to leave?

It can be said that he will not receive the imperial salary for the rest of his life.The life of the Mu family is also very good.Otherwise, why did Mu Shaoqin so confidently donate 30 catties of grain?

To fight against him, Jin Wang needs to save more money.

And the queen praised again, "With the concerted efforts of all the royal relatives, why worry that this natural disaster cannot be overcome smoothly? Your Majesty, just now the concubines and all the sisters discussed the matter of reducing the expenses in the palace. As long as your majesty I don't think the harem sisters are slow, and it's not impossible to save half of the expenses."

So cruel!The first thing Zheng Guifei thought of when she heard it was.It is estimated that this year's new clothes and jewelry will be much less.

But Gao Xian was obviously very happy, "The queen has a heart. There is no need to demand a certain amount of reduction, but if you save it, you save it. On this point, you may wish to ask your uncle's family for advice when you have time, especially the second elder of the Shi family. The old people who live a life know more than us young people. I went to my uncle's house to sit for a while that day. Even I feel that I have benefited a lot."

Even the emperor himself admitted that he had consulted the elders of the Shi family?If everyone still can't understand what the emperor means, just wait to be cut.

Queen Wang's face became even more radiant. "Follow the instructions of the emperor."

But Empress Dowager Mu's complexion became more and more ugly. Maybe she couldn't do other things, but the fight between women in the back house was clear.

This queen is not easy!The emperor agrees to reduce the palace's expenses. On the surface, it is an offending thing, but as long as it is done seriously, how many dissidents can be eliminated and how much power can be cultivated?

no!Empress Dowager Mu thought a little, and said, "The empress is indeed still young. It is better to let the third concubine Gui Dexian help with the palace affairs during the days when Ai's family is away. They are older and can also give The queen reminds me."

The three concubines who were named were all a little surprised. Needless to say, Concubine Zheng, she has always been only interested in pleasing the emperor, and she has no ambitions in palace affairs. That is why the emperor tolerates her occasional frivolity and publicity. In the high position of the queen.

Concubine Xian has long since fallen out of favor, but because she has served the emperor for a long time and has raised princes and daughters, she has become the last of the four concubines.

As for Concubine Shu, the second of the four concubines, she was once the emperor's favorite, but the beauty was unlucky and had already passed away.As for the Concubine De, she was originally a contender for the Empress, but she lost to the Wang family in the end. To appease her, she was appointed Concubine De.

It was a bit subtle for the Queen Mother to say this at this time, except for Zheng Guifei who was not very interested in taking power, the two concubines Dexian and Dexian were both a little moved.

They can't compete with Concubine Zheng when they fight for favor, but if they can hold some real power, not only can they make their lives easier, but they can also create a future for their children?

But Gao Xian didn't express his opinion, and no one was embarrassed to rush to agree.On the contrary, Queen Wang said generously, "What the queen mother said is very true. It would be even better if I could have three older sisters helping me together."

Gao Xian glanced at his young queen, and hummed, as if the matter had been settled.

Nianfu felt a little sympathetic to the Queen Mother, even if the Queen Mother went to clean up, the harem would not be peaceful.But as long as he sits in such a high position, how can he avoid these open and hidden arrows?

Thinking about how it is better to be at home, Nianfu is convinced once again how important it is to have a clean and self-sufficient father!

This matter has come to an end, but Gao Xianzhong brought up another matter, "Earlier, my mother summoned the Qin Tianjian for divination, and wanted to enshrine a goddess who protects the country to go to Baoguang Temple to practice for the country. I plan to choose a noble daughter from among the royal family , I wonder if anyone would like it?"
