Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

Chapter 3 Discussing state affairs, all are idiots

This so-called Aunt Sun is actually the Empress Changsun of the current dynasty, and later generations are called Empress Wende.

Empress Changsun, the maidservant of Guanyin in small characters, married Li Shimin very early, and worked hard and diligently with Li Shimin all her life.

During the change of Xuanwu Gate, Empress Changsun personally comforted the soldiers, and was named empress after she ascended the throne.

Li Shimin gave birth to many children in his life.

The most important thing is that she is very virtuous, Li Shimin is actually more irritable, and Empress Changsun can always persuade him.

Empress Changsun has been highly rated in history, and the rule of Zhenguan has her credit.

This year is the first year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin's first year on the throne.

Last year was the ninth year of Wude, when Li Shimin launched the Xuanwu Gate Change.

As soon as Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were eradicated, the Turkic Khan Jieli sent 30 troops to the south in the name of King Qin to protect Li Yuan, and the troops came to Weishui.

There were no soldiers in Chang'an city, and Li Shimin spent all his treasury before forming the humiliating Weishui alliance.

I wanted to work hard, and God gave me a good year, but who knew that there would be floods after the autumn this year, and the land in Guanzhong would almost have no harvest.

After winter, it snows even more.

Li Shimin is the lord of the Ming Dynasty, and Empress Changsun is a virtuous housemate.

In the year of catastrophe, people-oriented, Li Shimin opened Hanjiacang and Luokoucang to help the victims.

In the palace, food and clothing are even more frugal. The queen takes the lead, and the harem only eats soup and cakes, not meat.

Because meat belongs to livestock, and feeding livestock must consume food.

Even Empress Changsun herself hasn't eaten meat for three months.

Saving is saving, and there is nothing left to sit and eat. Two large warehouses have been opened, but there is still not enough food, and the hungry people are waiting to be fed.

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were worried.

The remaining party of Li Jiancheng in the court took the opportunity to stir up trouble, saying that this was a punishment from God, and Li Shimin should return the throne to Li Yuan.

Some people even threatened to sacrifice Li Shimin to heaven to apologize.

Empress Changsun couldn't sleep or eat well, and today, regardless of dissuasion, she brought Shangguan Yun Weifu for a private visit to Yunyang County, not only to inspect the people's conditions, but also to see if the landlords here could find some food.

Looking at it all the way, one is worse than the other, and some Zhuangzi all starved to death, which is too horrible to look at.

Only when I walked to Sujiazhuang, I found groups of birds falling into the Zhuangzi.

You must know that animals are smarter than humans. In this snowy day, flocks of birds fell on the ground, there must be something to eat inside.

Moreover, the village is full of fireworks, and it is a scene of living and working in peace and contentment.

Especially when he walked to the gate, he saw Lao Chen holding a large bowl of mutton and pouring it out to the watchdog Ah Huang.

Empress Changsun was shocked.

I haven't eaten meat for three months, but the watchdog here actually eats better than my queen?
So she broke into Sujiazhuang.

Gossip off, let's get down to business.

In the palace, Empress Changsun hadn't seen meat for three months, and Shangguan Yun, the personal guard, couldn't get enough to eat.

A soldier, with so much exercise, has no food in his stomach, and often wakes up hungry in the middle of the night.

After sitting down, Shangguan Yun stuffed it into his mouth regardless of whether it was beef or not, sweating profusely from eating.

"Xue Ji, serve another plate of beef to Miss Shangguan."

Xue Ji immediately brought over another plate, Shangguan Yunqiufeng swept the fallen leaves, and finished eating with a clatter.

While Xue Ji was feasting, Empress Changsun herself did not rest.

I ate the beef with big mouthfuls, and the taste was smooth and tender, which was better than the barbecue in the palace.

Especially the chili oil at the bottom of the pot. After Empress Changsun ate it, a layer of sweat broke out on her back, and she instantly felt that her breathing was much easier.

Su Yu saw it, and shook her head secretly: Although this Aunt Sun is a wealthy businessman in Chang'an, her life is not easy. Seeing that she and this bodyguard are starving, it may not be that she hasn't eaten meat in March.

If Empress Changsun knew what Su Yu was thinking, she would definitely be surprised: I really haven't eaten meat for three months.

When she was full of beef, Empress Changsun took a vegetable leaf and put it in the pot to rinse, and then ate it into her mouth.

That kind of sweet and crisp, refreshing.

"Master Su, what is this? Why is it so delicious?"

"This is baby food, a specialty of our Zhuangzi."

"In the middle of winter, how did Mr. Su grow it? It doesn't look like winter vegetables stored in the cellar."

This fresh and tender color looks like it has just been picked.

"Yes, it was planted in the backyard and just picked."

Su Yu laughed.

Empress Changsun and Shangguan Yun were astonished, this person is indeed a god, otherwise why would he grow vegetables in the backyard when it was snowing heavily.

Since he is a god, why not ask him.

Empress Changsun put down her chopsticks and sat upright, very dignified and majestic.

Others didn't notice it, but Su Yu noticed it.

This Aunt Sun is by no means as simple as a rich businessman.

"Young Master Su, although we businessmen don't talk about state affairs, there are a lot of discussions inside and outside the court. It is said that the Turkic attack and natural disasters continue. This is because the current emperor is not virtuous in government and the harem is meddling in politics. What do you think?"

Shangguan Yun suddenly stopped his chopsticks and looked at Su Yu nervously.

The person in front of her is the mother of the current dynasty. If Su Yu discusses the state affairs like everyone else, it will be a serious crime of beheading and punishing the nine clans.

Now that the ministers and famous families in the court are talking nonsense, Li Shimin chooses to endure because there are Turks outside and disaster years inside.

If not, Li Shimin would have killed those who deserved to be killed and dismissed those who should be dismissed.

Su Yu snorted twice, but did not answer, but asked Xue Ji to take out a plate of fruit with freshly cut watermelon on it.

Red melon naan, black melon seeds, a refreshing sweetness.

"Aunt Sun, try it."

Empress Changsun took a piece and took a bite, the taste buds exploded with the sweet and greasy feeling.

"Master Su, what is this?"

Empress Changsun is like Grandma Liu who has entered the Grand View Garden, seeing everything new.

"This is the watermelon I grew."

During the Tang Dynasty, there were also melons introduced from the Western Regions to the Central Plains, but the sweetness and taste were not as good as watermelons.

Although Empress Changsun is the mother of the world, she has never eaten such a good melon.

After eating one piece, the queen ate another.

Could this not be the fairy product of the Queen Mother's Yao Chi?
Empress Changsun became more and more suspicious that Su Yu had descended from an immortal.

"Master Su, you haven't answered my question just now."

Su Yu put down his chopsticks, ate the watermelon, leaned back on the chair, and said disdainfully, "They're all idiots, they don't make any sense."

Empress Changsun suddenly became interested and wanted to hear Su Shenxian's meaning.

These days in the palace, gossip is repeatedly prohibited, and the queen came out this time to relieve boredom and relax.

"Oh? How do you say it? Please enlighten me."

Su Yu said: "Natural disasters, what are natural disasters, and those that cannot be controlled by manpower are called natural disasters. If it is unvirtuous to say that floods and droughts are connected, then what do you say about Dayu's flood control? Dayu and his son were ordered by Emperor Yao and Shun. Could it be that Yao and Shun were also foolish kings?" ? Shit doesn't make sense!"

After hearing what Su Yu said, the block in Empress Changsun's heart immediately dissipated, and most of the stuffiness in her chest was relieved at these times.

"Moreover, this natural disaster is also an opportunity."

Su Yu said.

opportunity?

"How to say?"

Empress Changsun asked eagerly.
