Chapter 759
"Hahaha……"

On the tower of the imperial city, loud laughter followed one after another, in an endless stream.

The longer the time in the temple, the more the ministers got to know the emperor.

Although the emperor attached great importance to etiquette and law on weekdays, but sometimes, the No.1 person who often violated etiquette and law was him.

The key problem lies in one point. Most of the time, if he really does something wrong, you can say whatever you like, and he will admit to whatever you say. As for whether he will do it again next time, it is not something you can think about after saying a few words.

This is completely different from other kings. Throughout the dynasties and dynasties, the kings of all countries have always wanted to save face and suffer. I did something wrong. Just remind me, and don’t report it in public.

If you dare to tell me, it’s fine if I don’t admit it, and you don’t even want to live.

This is the emperor's mind, and the officials never deny this.

It is also this kind of heart, don't look at sometimes when some important issues are discussed in the court, the emperor will quarrel with his ministers until his face becomes red and his neck is thick.

But putting aside the business, one had to admit that the emperor didn't care about ordinary trivial matters, such as the occasional joke.

Because of the above, in this temple, it is considered easy for the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty to get along with each other, and there will not be too much pressure.

This is true in the temple, and now it goes without saying at this big banquet.

When everyone mentioned the emperor's scandal, the emperor might be a little upset, but as long as everyone is happy and lives this new year well, everything will be fine.

This is also a heart, but also a view of the overall situation.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Chinese New Year is just eating, drinking, and family reunion, which is considered a relaxing festival, but if it is placed in the court, it is not such a small relaxing festival, but a big event.

Just as many chambers of commerce take stock of their performance at the end of each year, a country also needs to take stock of its performance, and Chinese New Year is the best time to take stock of its performance.

On the day of the new year, even if there is a little accident, it is unqualified. Therefore, for the sake of the overall situation, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will spare no effort to show a peaceful year, a prosperous year, so that the people have hope for the coming year. Officials are more motivated to work in the coming year.

All of this is important!

Amidst the laughter of the crowd, following Ying Shou's order, everyone returned to their seats and came to the banquet table.

Today's banquet table in Daqin is no longer the table table it was a year ago.In the old table case, everyone had to sit on the floor.

Following the previous changes, almost all the tables and chairs used by the royal family and ministers for banquets are now dominated by Eight Immortals tables and chairs.

As for ordinary people, it has not been widely used yet, but it is also a matter of time.

The banquet was set up on the tower of the imperial city, where there were three huge viewing platforms.

If a war breaks out and the enemy invades Xianyang, and the royal family only has the last barrier of the imperial city, the front and middle of the three viewing platforms can instantly become the commander's platform.The rear of the left and right sides is the array platform.

The commander's platform, as the name suggests, is used by generals.

The formation platform is naturally used by the army.

Each of these two formation platforms is large enough to accommodate thousands of troops.

On weekdays, these two formation platforms and the commander's platform are used by the royal family to visit the entire Xianyang City, and now they are used to hold banquets, which is perfect.

The Dianjiang platform is quite small, but the array platform is more than enough to entertain today's civil and military officials and their families, and there are even many vacant places.

For example, in the banquet, as the emperor, Ying Shou naturally led his ministers to the left to line up the stage, after all, the left is the most respected.

The queen and concubine brought the family members of the ministers, mainly female relatives, and some children to the array platform on the right, forming two huge banquet halls.

The heavy snow and cold wind, having a banquet under the open-air balcony is not something that everyone can bear. Therefore, under each Eight Immortals table, there will be a small brazier for everyone's feet to keep warm.

As for the hands, some people warmed the wine, ate and drank, and it was warm.

Following everyone's banquet, Ying Shou took the first place, held up the wine bar, and said with a smile: "My dear family, today's New Year's Eve, we should have a good wine reception, but it's different this year."

"Everyone knows that the harvest of my Daqin today far exceeds any period in history. The people are happy. Therefore, inside and outside Xianyang City, thousands of families gather grain to brew this thousand families of wine!"

"Well, maybe this Wanjia wine is not as good as the fine wine in your family's mansion, but in my opinion, this is the best fine wine in the world."

"Today, all the people below, as well as everyone in the city, including me, will only use this wine. Do you have any objections?"

"If you love me, how about having a drink with me?"

The ministers heard the words, not to mention how the Wanjia's food and wine are, the emperor has already spoken, who dare not give face?

"Your Majesty's words are wrong. The salaries of the officials in the Manchu Dynasty are not the food of a hundred families? But counting the history, all the officials paid a little more, and the world is full of complaints!"

"Now, I, a minister of the Great Qin Dynasty, can not only eat Wanjia food, but also drink Wanjia wine. What an honor is this? How can I have any opinions?"

Xiao He got up, held up the wine cup and said with a smile.

"That's right, that's right, my lord is right. Counting the past and present, who has enjoyed the gift from the people of the world except the Three Emperors and Five Emperors? Now, in our prosperous Qin Dynasty, it is comparable to the prosperity of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, so we can get this fine wine. I still hate it, I am afraid that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty will starve to death in the future!"

Zhang Liang got up, held up the wine cup, and said with a big smile.

"Hey, what Master Zhang and Master Xiao said is too great. In the hearts of us courtiers, we don't have so many thoughts."

"The harvest of this year is on this table today, and in this jue, this is a joy to the hearts of the people, and it can't be explained! Hahaha!"

Wu Hua also stood up, held up the wine bar, and said very bluntly.

"Well, it makes sense. This official is in charge of the Great Qin Criminal Law. My Great Qin law has always been strict. In the past few months, this official has heard so many complaints."

"Everywhere has a good harvest. Parents and officials everywhere are grateful to the people. Some send food and vegetables. Unfortunately, no one dares to accept it."

"After all, according to the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty, taking things from the common people indiscriminately, in addition to their salaries, is considered bribery. The official prison is waiting!"

"Hey, today's eating in a fair and aboveboard way can bribe Wanjianiu. Hehe, this is led by His Majesty the Emperor. The law does not punish the public. The law does not punish the public. Don't drink more today. If you want to drink later, it will be difficult!"

Du Tao, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, said with a smile on his face.

This guy is in charge of the Great Qin Criminal Law on weekdays, and all officials really respect him at a distance. His image has always been cold, like a stone, which makes people feel cold from the bottom of their hearts.

No one would have thought that there would be such a humorous side when he left the job and came to the banquet.
