Datang infinite pretense system

"But His Royal Highness, have you ever seen His Majesty in your eyes!?"

"Li Xiaochang, that's enough! I asked Gao Ming to do this!"

This father and son are really of one mind.

Li Shimin didn't hide anything, and said so directly.

If so, what else can Li Xiaochang say?

The emperor thinks so, can he be controlled by a minister of the Ministry of war?

"But Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

"Enough is enough, I have given Gao Ming the power to kill first and play later! Don't say any more!"

Afterwards, Li Chengqian said: "Thanks to His Majesty's empowerment, my son has perfectly solved the problem of the family not selling goods behind closed doors within an hour and a half!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were very excited.

Li Shimin said: "Oh? So fast?"

Empress Changsun also said: "It's true to believe in Gao Ming!"

"Yes! I believe that within a period of time, these five great aristocratic families will not dare to do anything harmful to our Tang Dynasty. We will kill as many as they dare to do! As long as the household registration reform in Chang'an City is [-]% this time, they will also Then there is no way to return to heaven!

Moreover, for this household registration reform, the voices of the people are very loud, they are all praising His Majesty's ability to govern the country, which is comparable to the ancient god emperors! "

The rest of the words are just casual remarks by Li Chengqian about the horses he photographed.

Li Shimin stood up abruptly.

"Okay! Gao Ming, you have done a good job! Very good! If this household registration reform is successful, it will be promoted to the entire Tang Dynasty!"

It looks like that day is not far away.

At that time, the promotion of crops will be even faster, after all, there will be more people farming.

"Also! Regarding the matter of education, more than [-] people have been accepted to apply, and the exam will start tomorrow, so as to select ministers who are beneficial to the Great Tang to contribute to our Great Tang."

"It's been so hard, Gao Ming!"

When it comes to this, it is necessary to talk about the 23 years of Tang Taizong's reign. During his reign, China was ruled from chaos, the barbarians obeyed, and the world returned to its heart. The prosperous scene of "Zhenguan rule" appeared.The reason, in Tang Taizong's own words, is that "those who can secure the world must use talents." The story of Tang Taizong's 23-year reign appointed 22 prime ministers. Among these 22 prime ministers, five surnames and seven There are very few people watching, and this is what Li Shimin did on purpose.

Now Li Chengqian has helped him find a large number of talents that can be cultivated, which is equivalent to providing Datang with a large number of talents for governing the country.That was something Li Shimin couldn't wait for.

"The country must be strong, people-oriented, people-oriented, and education first. This is an eternal principle. The sons and ministers have learned from the sages, and the principles they have realized will bring a lot of help to Datang and make Datang even stronger. powerful!"

The more Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian, the more satisfied he became.

Can't help nodding and saying yes!

On the other hand, Li Xiaochang was full of helplessness. He originally wanted to participate in Li Chengqian's book, but he didn't expect that the father and son had agreed in advance.

This made him very depressed.

In Li Chengqian's opinion: You, Li Xiaochang, dare to take the initiative to participate in Lao Tzu, look, see if Lao Tzu will kill you!My surname is not Li!

For Li Xiaochang, he can be said to be very resentful, but he can't find a single evidence to bring them down, but he believes that this day is coming soon.

This matter has come to an end, at this time Fang Xuanling came out and said: "Your Majesty, do you want to have a good discussion about the worship of the "Moon God" during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

The term "Mid-Autumn Festival" first appeared in "Zhou Rituals", but it was not a festival at that time, it only indicated the timing. On this day, the emperors worshiped the "Moon God".It was not until the middle of the Tang Dynasty that there was a record of "August [-] Mid-Autumn Festival".

Therefore, the mid autumn festival began in the early Tang Dynasty and prevailed in the Song Dynasty. It became one of the major Chinese festivals along with the spring festival in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.The emperors of the past dynasties attached great importance to the Mid-Autumn Festival. Because of their different personalities and cultural literacy, the ways of celebrating the festival also have their own merits, interpreting stories that have been passed down through the ages.

At this time, Li Chengqian had an idea, why not move the modern Mid-Autumn Festival to the ancient times, there will be more surprises.

So he said: "About the Mid-Autumn Festival, I have an idea!"

Li Shimin asked, "What's your idea?"

"Your Majesty, you will know when the exam is over tomorrow and my son makes it."

Empress Changsun laughed and said, "It seems that Gao Ming is going to come up with something new?"

"Forget it, let's see what new tricks Gao Ming will come up with."

Chapter 398 Drooling Out (Second)

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional festival in China.According to historical records, the term "Mid-Autumn Festival" first appeared in the book "Zhou Li".In the Wei and Jin Dynasties, there is a record of "the Shangshu Zhenniuyu, Mid-Autumn Festival and left and right Weifu flood the river".

One said that it originated from the sacrificial activities of ancient emperors. The "Book of Rites" records: "The son of heaven springs to the sun, and the autumn evening moon", and the evening moon is to worship the moon, which shows that as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, emperors had already begun to sacrifice and worship the moon.Later, noble officials and literati followed suit one after another, and gradually spread to the people.

Second, the origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival is related to agricultural production.Autumn is the harvest season. The interpretation of the word "Autumn" is: "Autumn is the day when the crops are ripe."During the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, the crops and various fruits mature one after another. In order to celebrate the harvest and express their joy, farmers use the "Mid-Autumn Festival" as a festival. "Mid-Autumn Festival" means the middle of autumn. The eighth month of the lunar calendar is a month in the middle of autumn, and the [-]th is a day in the middle of this month. Therefore, the Mid-Autumn Festival may be a custom inherited from the ancient "autumn newspaper".

In later generations, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a very important festival and an important moment for family reunion, but this time is quite different and has not been endowed with this meaning.

Moon cakes must be eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but the Tang Dynasty did not have this habit.

Don't have this habit?What's so difficult about it, let them develop it directly. For this very important festival, eating mooncakes without admiring the moon is undoubtedly the best way to spend time.

But what about mooncakes?It is also difficult for Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian quickly recalled the fragmented memories in his mind, and immediately remembered the method of making moon cakes.

Need eggs, flour, egg yolk, sugar...

As long as the mooncake skin can be made well, what is baked inside is not a matter of raw materials?

Whether it's egg yolk mooncakes, red bean mooncakes, or five-nut mooncakes, it's all about proportion.

But before that, the blessing of the mold is needed, otherwise the mooncakes that come out may not look good, so he even drew a picture.

So a carpenter was called to carve out mooncake molds according to the content in the painting.

During this period, the craftsmen were also shocked by Li Chengqian's technique.But this was the most common line drawing of Li Chengqian's time. He could produce one of this kind of painting in 10 minutes, and it was very beautiful.

At the same time, he also ordered the chefs to prepare the mooncake skins.

All of a sudden, the chefs in the entire Eastern Palace began to get busy.

The news that he was busy quickly reached the ears of Li Shimin, Empress Changsun and others. They were very curious about what Li Chengqian wanted to do this time.

They don't know that what Li Chengqian is going to do now is to change the whole future.

But because Li Chengqian hadn't done a good job yet, they couldn't come here.

Until the evening, the first batch of mooncakes was finally ready to be baked.
