Good Life in Qin Dynasty

It is said that Lu Buwei was once again refused by the Huayang Empress Dowager to match his daughter with Li Jiyang, and was very dissatisfied: "The Empress Dowager, this is just a matter of decree!"

It's not like this kind of decree has never been issued before!

Lu Buwei spoke in a very bad tone. Although he was begging the Queen Mother Huayang, he might not have the Queen Mother Huayang's handle in his hand.

The most direct thing is that when he wanted to kill the Queen Mother Xia Ji, the Queen Mother Huayang agreed!

"Your daughter...is it Qin Anjun?" The Queen Mother Huayang rolled her eyes and thought of a way to stabilize Lu Buwei for the time being.

Lu Buwei: "...!"

If Li Jiyang wanted it, he wouldn't come to ask Yizhi!

"It's not okay to force it!" The Empress Dowager Huayang wiped the corners of her mouth with a cloth towel.

Lu Buwei: "...!"

Before nightfall, the Empress Dowager Huayang sent someone to tell Ying Zheng: Lu Buwei is still thinking about Qin Anjun's marriage!

At that time, Li Jiyang was about to enjoy dinner with Ying Zheng. Today's dinner is said to be a whole New Year's pig... Isn't it a New Year's pig to kill a pig in the twelfth lunar month!

Don't look at the poor harvest of grain this year, but pigs are not picky eaters, and they will still grow fat if they are fed some deflated particles.

Li Jiyang told the imperial chefs in the imperial dining room that a pig should not be wasted from head to toe, he would eat all kinds of sauced pig's trotters, stewed pig's tongue, sauced pig's ears and so on!

He even ordered braised pork ribs and braised pig tails in addition to braised pork!

Hearing such words, Ying Zheng's expression at that time!

It simply cannot be described in words!

Li Jiyang shut up embarrassingly. In fact, he wanted to say something like pig intestines and bitter intestines, but since there was no pepper in this era, he didn't say anything.

He can't take out the chili peppers, at most put them in the seasoning, then it won't taste that way!

So he just ordered a salted pork liver, and he can eat some of this.

When the servant came to report, Li Jiyang was almost hopeless: "Why do human beings hurt each other? Can't Lu Buwei take a fancy to others?"

Ying Zheng's face was also not good-looking: "He just wants to...huh...!"

Li Jiyang looked at him inexplicably. After humming, there is no more to say?

"My lord, Your Majesty, the food is ready." Jiang Neishi jumped out in good time and announced that the meal was ready.

"Eat first!" Li Jiyang was hungry, and the matter of Lu Buwei was forgotten.

Anyway, he would never marry Lu Buwei's daughter as his wife...he didn't intend to harm anyone's daughter.

He has too many secrets. So far, except for the little nephew who slept with him a few times when he was ignorant, he usually doesn't even need a night watchman!

And there is no common topic with women in this era!

People say that there is a three-year generation gap. The difference between him and the women in Qin State is more than 2000 years. That generation gap cannot be as deep as the Mariana Trench!

Ying Zheng was very happy to see that Li Jiyang was more interested in eating than Lu Buwei's daughter!

"Yes, let's eat first. By the way, the staple food is the Chu rice!" Ying Zheng told Jiang's servant: "The kind that needs to be transported from Chu!" "No!" , and then sent the person away first, and went to the imperial dining room to pass the meal by himself.

Li Jiyang slumped on the couch and pretended to be a blanket: "Lv Buwei came here for this matter?"

"Yeah." Ying Zheng was jealous.

"Is his daughter unable to get married?" Li Jiyang turned over in annoyance, lying on the couch and looking up at Ying Zheng: "Why do you have to let me take over!"

"What he values ​​is your...personality and talent. Daughter, maybe I used to think that a concubine is enough, but now it seems that I have looked down on you, and changed a concubine to be your daughter-in-law..." Ying Zheng said his heart The more sour.

"I refused!" Li Jiyang was so annoyed that he didn't notice what was wrong with Ying Zheng.

"It's just that he doesn't give up." Xiaoyang is so kind, the old man Lu Buwei attaches great importance to him now, otherwise he wouldn't be beating around the bush and asking the Queen Mother to marry him.

"I don't care!" Li Jiyang tugged on his sleeve and said, "You settle it for me!"

"Okay, I'll settle it for you." After being with Li Jiyang for a long time, Ying Zheng's vocabulary has enriched a lot.

Then the food came, and there were all kinds of things that Li Jiyang ordered. Jiang Neishi still explained: "The imperial dining room tried several times before it was ready to eat. The king and the king have a taste first. If it is delicious, it will be fine. If there is something inappropriate, ask the imperial chef to correct it again!"

"How many times have you made it?" Li Jiyang was surprised: "Then what about the poorly made things? Throw them away?"

"It can't be wasted!" Jiang Neishi laughed and said, "Chop it up, chop it up, throw some salt and dried vegetables, and make a tooth offering for the people in the palace."

Where can I really lose it?Even if it's not delicious, there are still so many people in the palace who don't have any oil in their stomachs. The big meat stewed with dried vegetables, those bastards who ate it screamed!

"It's not easy!" Li Jiyang looked at the whole pig feast, and it was too wasteful to eat with Ying Zheng: "Why don't you follow along and eat?"

Before Jiang Neishi could express his opinion, Ying Zheng's eyes flew over!

Jiang Neishi's expression didn't change: "I have something to eat, and it's in the back kitchen. You and the lord can eat first, and I will eat later. I like to eat meat, big fat meat!"

When it comes to fat meat, Li Jiyang is out of control, anyway, he doesn't like to eat it very much.

After Jiang Neishi was let go, Ying Zheng tapped the food tripod with his chopsticks: "Come here, it's time to eat!"

"Oh!" Li Jiyang rubbed over and sat down: "What are the godmothers eating?"

"It's the same as us." Ying Zheng said: "The imperial dining room will not just kill one pig, at least a hundred and eighty pigs, one person will have a whole pig feast, and the rest will be eaten by the palace people. The imperial army alone has 10 people. Woolen cloth!"

"I'll ask them to bring pork over tomorrow. There are so many people here, so it's too much to eat, right?" Li Jiyang snapped.

"Your people send in a hundred packed fat pigs every day!" Ying Zheng, dumbfounded, gave him a piece of braised pig's tail hand-picked by Li Jiyang, with eyes like looking at something unknown: "Otherwise this Why are there so many pig tails?"

Over there, there is a food tripod with braised pig tails in it!

In addition, there are a lot of pig ears and salted pork liver.

In terms of quantity, one pig can never produce so many things.

"I like to eat this. When I was young... the teacher didn't let me eat it, and lied to me that I didn't grow up to eat pig tails, and I would be with little ghosts later in the evening." Li Jiyang curled his lips, but it wasn't the teacher, it was his grandmother.

That is, grandma, the old lady has never been out of the countryside in her life, so she is very particular about all kinds of things!

He had never eaten pig tails, chicken heads, duck heads, etc. before. He ate pig tails because he was a kid. He ate chicken heads and duck heads before he was an adult. It would rain on his wedding day!

Ying Zheng laughed constantly, isn't such a master too funny?

"When A Niang and I were in Zhao State, we raised pheasants ourselves, and I ate the pheasant heads too!" Ying Zheng ate with this joke.

"Then when you get married, you have to watch the weather, don't let it be cloudy and rainy." Li Jiyang lowered his head and picked a piece of pig's ear to eat.

He didn't look up, and he didn't see the tenderness in Ying Zheng's eyes.

"Well, the day of marriage must be sunny." Marriage ah!

"Not necessarily. I heard that when it's cloudy and rainy when you get married, the bride is more powerful." Li Jiyang continued to spread superstitions: "But your queen can't be more powerful than you, you are the most powerful!"

"Well, I like to hear this sentence." Ying Zheng took a piece of salted pork liver for him: "This thing... would you like to take a bite?"

"Take a bite too, it's delicious!" Li Jiyang remembered that salted pork liver seems to prevent myopia?Anyway, it is good for the human body.

People in this era eat offal, but offal is eaten by poor people. Aristocrats, even minor nobles don’t eat offal. won't eat!

Now I like to eat it just because pork is delicious, and it doesn’t have that fishy smell compared to beef and mutton.

Moreover, pork is thicker and has more fat than beef and mutton. In this era, the only thing that can be seen is how much fat is there.

Ying Zheng bit the bullet and took a bite. It tasted good, with a faint smell of blood, but it aroused his curiosity, so he ate several pieces.

When the two of them were eating, the harem was also eating. Everyone was very interested in the whole pig feast, especially little Fusu, this little guy actually liked pig ears!

It is the Queen Mother Huayang who likes to eat pig tongue, and the Queen Mother Xia Ji likes to eat pork head meat!

Zhao Ji has a soft spot for pig's trotters.

Ying Zheng unexpectedly likes salted pork liver!

Seeing that the New Year's Eve banquet is about to come, let's not talk about what happened to other countries this year. Anyway, Qin is not hurt.

Those protons from the state of Qin have a newcomer this year. Although the son of the state of Zhao is young, he is a good person. It is said that he is quite comfortable living in the proton mansion. Because he is young, Li Jiyang also pitied him and told Ying Zheng , Yingzheng may also hurt his kind?

Anyway, Jiang Neishi told the guards of the Proton Mansion, don't be negligent in evaluating the young master, give him what he wants, and every three to five days, there are various rewards in the palace.

In comparison, Dan, who is the prince of Yan, is not so good. Since he came, he has only met Ying Zheng once, and he has no chance to make friends with him!

It's okay to think of the Proton Mansion, but you can only wander around in the outer city. It's impossible to make friends with officials in the inner city... Especially after he still wants to visit Li Jiyang, Ying Zheng will guard him like a thief.

Li Jiyang didn't know yet, but in fact, Ying Zheng had sent someone to guard it outside Migu, not to mention that it was blocked, but it was about the same.

But after Prince Dan of Yan came, a lot of spies had been caught outside, no matter how well they pretended, they could still be seen as Yan people!

So it's no wonder that Ying Zheng guarded him so strictly.

The Qin State suffered a disaster this year, but it brought back a lot from other countries, so almost everything was in place before the New Year's Eve banquet was prepared.

In addition to the usual things, there are also a lot of game such as bear paws and venison.

Envoys from various countries also came to Qin State one after another, offering the richest gifts, because it seems that the strength of Qin State is still very strong, otherwise, where did so much food come from?

They will also go out for a walk when they come. They have also heard about the Dafeng Harvest Grain Store, and they all flatter Li Jiyang, Qin Anjun, especially the envoys from Zhao Guo this time are extremely enthusiastic!

The New Year's Eve banquet came as scheduled, and Ying Zheng gave an order to start the last banquet of the year, the New Year's Eve banquet.

At the banquet, Li Jiyang took good care of Mr. Zhao Guolai's Mr. Gu. The child has been raised here for more than a year. Now his lips are red and his teeth are white, and he still speaks softly. He feels like a good student in the eyes of the teacher!

It is said that he now reads books for two hours a day.

"Don't read for too long, be careful not to blur your eyes." Li Jiyang sat with him and put a lot of food in his food pot: "Go out and walk around more, exercise your body."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I think it's okay, and my body is much stronger." Mr. Gu was not with those protons, but he was not with Qin officials, but sat with Li Jiyang, Qin Anjun.

The protons looked and looked at him.

In the past, they were familiar with Prince Yan of Zhao State, but Prince Yan abandoned them and went back to the country to be the lord of the country. He sent a little brother who was not yet an adult to be a hostage, and there was no news from him!

But Qin Anjun never paid any attention to them, even Crown Prince Dan of Yan failed to get his invitation to sit at the same table with him for dinner, but this underage child unexpectedly won the favor of Qin Anjun .

Everyone knew Li Jiyang's status in the Qin State, so they really had to look at this Mr. Estimate differently.
