Dress to be a celebrity

When children grow up, it is really necessary to let them go out and experience something before they can mature.

The emperor happily put down the book in his hand, and asked someone to deliver the decree to the Ministry of Rites, intending to award it to the King of Zhou, and also to the Northwest Army—not only for their repeated military exploits over the past year, but they should also be included in the meritorious service of appeasement. a sum.

If they hadn't accepted the surrender of Marquis Shunyi back then, the few loyal and filial sons of Marquis Shunyi's family would not have taken the initiative to ask for help and persuade their relatives to surrender to Da Zheng.Although they are all serving as envoys outside the customs, their fathers and relatives and elders who have recently arrived in Beijing are all there, so the rewards will be added to their families.

Add a patent, give gold, silver, wine and food...let them go to the palace to give a banquet.

When Zhou Wang Changshi presented the book, he said that it contained some delicacies commonly used by grassland tribes. The cook in their palace learned the authentic recipe from Song Sanyuan. Zhou Wang sent the cook to Beijing to serve his father in order to honor his father. Cooking in the palace.

It just happened that these newly conferred lords and Taizu joined Dazheng when they had changed their surnames to Han, but the princes who still had Tatar blood came to taste the dishes of their hometown to show the court's favor to them. Caress.

Also accompany him to taste the heart sent by the eldest son of the emperor.

This matter is naturally reported to the Ministry of Rites for preparation.The third prince heard that his father was going to give a banquet to the honorable dukes who were born in Inner Mongolia, so he took the initiative to ask Lu Shoufu for orders: "The surrender of these Tatar princes is due to the credit of my two imperial brothers. I am also willing to learn from my younger brother." With the two elder brothers, I will do my best for Da Zheng to put down the chaos in the grassland."

Ever since he got his name in the Ministry of Rites, he has put the Ministry of Rites at the top of his list, and he doesn't like to go to the Economic Park to do practical work.Fortunately, there were several censors and doctors who had gone to Hanzhong to study there, and the Holy Majesty often sent the eunuchs in charge of the palace to watch over there, so that the honorable relatives did not dare to stretch out their hands, but the absence of the third prince did not delay anything.

Lu Shoufu also knew that the third prince had no dust in his eyes and preferred the honorable errands of the Ministry of Rites, so he responded with a smile: "Your Highness intends to take over this banquet and share his worries.

Do your best to cooperate. "

King Wei replied with a smile: "Thank you, old man."

He and Elder Lu Ge each performed a performance, accepted the mission, and then personally arranged for the fine dining secretary to prepare a banquet.

The third prince presided over the two ceremonies of his younger brothers becoming kings and getting married, not to mention giving daily banquets, and he was already familiar with it.The banquet for the upstarts from the prairie was the same except for arranging the general affairs, so he continued to order as usual:

Since it is a palace banquet, the banquet will be held in the side hall of the Wenhua Palace. The Ministry of Rituals will arrange the etiquette for giving the banquet. The Siyi Pavilion will accompany the princes who have just entered Beijing to be enshrined, and they will choose Lehu from the Jiaofang to serve the banquet...

When it came to arranging the dishes for the banquet, the Holy Majesty chose the grassland dishes instead of the usual palace dishes, and a chef from the palace of the Zhou Dynasty prepared the dishes.The dishes arranged are also mainly mutton, and the names are all barbecue-based, which is quite different from the steamed mutton and soup mutton that Beijing is used to, and it has an exotic flavor.

Is this offered by the eldest brother to win the favor, or is it because the father missed his eldest brother and specially sent someone to come?

During these years in Beijing, King Wei presided over the Ministry of Rites and took care of the economic park. He was quite favored by the imperial court and was respected by the officials of the Six Departments. He seemed to have inherited his elder brother's position before he left Beijing.But if his eldest brother regains his favor and returns to the court, his father's will will inevitably be shaken.

Although Princess Huan was not strict at the time and made disrespectful remarks like the "young emperor", after all, it was only a court lady who spoke, and his elder brother could not be implicated.Today, the world is still governed by Confucian rituals, talking about the superiority of the elders and the younger...

In today's world, only Song Sanyuan, a Neo Confucianist, established a new school, regardless of those pedantic Confucian five ethics, and still runs girls' schools to let girls go to school.

It's a pity that he was fascinated by love and went to Shaanxi with the brother-in-law's wife and uncle. Otherwise, he would not be distracted by mundane affairs in Beijing, and he would have already created the theory that a family is not inferior to the four sons of the Northern Song Dynasty, which has changed the old-fashioned atmosphere of fathers and sons today. !

A well-known Qingliu celebrity and Confucianism master was delayed by his elder brother and became a follower!

Even the chef and grassland menu presented by the eldest brother, I heard that they all learned from his family - it must be that the elder brother of the eldest emperor's wife went out to serve as an envoy, and he was used to eating the dishes of Mongolian princes. Ling's appetite specially asked the cook to learn these mutton dishes.

The third prince secretly hated his elder brother for delaying talents, so he reluctantly abandoned his expectations for the Song Dynasty, and arranged for the chef of the fine dining department to draw up a menu, buy meat and vegetables according to the recipe, and planned to have a banquet in three days.

To give the ministers a banquet, since the father does not need to come in person, he and a respected eldest princess consort preside over it.

Three days after the palace banquet was prepared and the decree was issued, all the nobles who were born in the Mongolian grasslands of the Manchu Dynasty gathered in the Wenhua Hall to receive the gift.The king of Wei and the son-in-law of Princess Huaide, the eldest princess of the dynasty, sat in the top seat and presided over the ceremony. They ordered people to serve dishes to reward these ministers of foreign origin, but they made great contributions to Dazheng Dapingle.

Since Taizu's Northern Expedition, countless grassland tribes who understood righteousness and righteousness have joined Dazheng; today's Northwest Wars have seen many successes, and various princes have abandoned their secrets and turned to the Ming, offering grasslands and herdsmen to Dazheng...

No matter which clan they were from, whether they had been enemies of the imperial court before, but since they joined the imperial court, the Holy One and the imperial court treated them equally and rewarded them for their merits.

The king of Wei raised the wine glass on his table, wished the emperor a long life and a happy life together with the people below, and said with a smile: "Today's banquet is specially made by the emperor to reward you for your loyalty, obedience, diligence and diligence. Let me understand your homesickness. Please move your chopsticks and try the prairie delicacies made in the palace to suit your taste!"

He raised his chopsticks first, and the people sitting below moved their chopsticks one after another, carefully sandwiching thin slices of mutton, cooked tender mutton offal, and baked crispy yellow and crispy butter shortbread into their mouths.

The aroma that originally lingered in the nose now melts in the mouth, and the fresh and rich mutton is just right for the tastes of those newly converted grassland people.The princes who have lived in Beijing also love to eat mutton, and there are servants at home who can cook barbecue, and now they taste the barbecue at the palace banquet, and they think it is better than their own.

After all, it is a palace banquet, and what the imperial chef cooks is better than the servants in their family.

Everyone toasted to thank the sage for his kindness. King Qi and Concubine Wang presided over the banquet.

Those old nobles who defected to Dazheng during the Taizu era were fine, but the newly attached ones ate prairie-flavored barbecue, drank distilled sake, and were comforted by a prince and a very senior son-in-law. He was also a little ecstatic, feeling that he had made the right choice to go to Da Zheng.

What made them happy was more than that, when the wine was in full swing, someone outside this side hall suddenly came to announce that the Holy One was here, and asked everyone to leave their seats and salute.

Dazheng's Tian Khan not only gave them a banquet for these aliens who surrendered, but also came to see them in person!The newly surrendered prince stood up and saluted excitedly, and the old clan who had lived in Dazheng for a long time even called His Majesty, thanked the Holy One for the banquet, and took the initiative to ask for orders to fight for the court.

The Son of Heaven was satisfied when he saw the barbarians, Muslims, Tatars and other foreign peoples all wearing official robes and performing Han rituals like the Dazheng people. He waved his hand and said, "Pingshen. It's not for serving me with you, but the king of Zhou sent authentic Mongolian recipes and a cook who is good at cooking Mongolian dishes. I think you have been in Dazheng for a long time, so I want you to taste the taste of your hometown."

How does this dish taste, but does it have the taste of grassland dishes in your memory?

In Beijing there is a better place to live than a tent, and there are also good cooks. Once you surrender to Da Zheng, you can live here with peace of mind. Just like those hereditary nobles who have changed their Chinese surnames, consider Jingli your hometown.

The Son of Heaven cared so much that the newly attached prairie princes such as Shunyi Hou were overwhelmed with gratitude. In the future, Da Zheng's rewards, the houses he lived in, and the utensils he used were all highly praised.Especially for this banquet, not only the Holy Majesty was present in person, but also the prince and son-in-law presided over it, accompanied by nobles...

They racked their brains to praise that the banquet was well organized, and in the end, they were a little out of their wits and forgot that the Holy Majesty said that they were given "hometown dishes" on the grassland, and they told the truth: "Many of them are cooked in The delicacies that have never been seen or eaten on the grasslands or in the capital, the Holy One really put his heart into it." Especially those pies and noodle cakes, most of what they ate on the grasslands were noodles, barley, yellow rice, oats, etc. Rough food, even the princes of the big tribes can hardly eat things made of Jingluo white flour.

What?It's not a prairie delicacy, could it be that the big emperor...

King Wei frowned a few times, walked up to the emperor and said, "Father, the emperor also shows filial piety..."

This child, to care about such a trivial matter, and to talk about his imperial brother, is not arrogant enough.

He ignored King Wei, waved his hands, and said with a smile: "You live as nomads, and you grow less food, so you don't have these refined rice and fine noodles. But now you have belonged to Dazheng, and those pastures are handed over to Dazheng." Zheng farmers take care of it, and they will naturally produce good flour in the future."

These dishes may not have been special products of the prairie before, but after the prairie belongs to Dazheng, it will definitely become a "hometown dish" that the people of the prairie tribes can eat.

The Mongols in the hall kept expressing gratitude, and secretly prayed that in the future, they would really make their hometown prosperous as Emperor Dazheng said.

Emperor Xintai nodded slightly, waved his hands to make them stand up, and after a few words of encouragement, he led them away from the Wenhua Hall and returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to review the memorials.This time, he had to travel in a chariot, which was a little wobbly. After the emperor sat down in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he was still a little dizzy. After taking a few mouthfuls of calming soup, he closed his eyes and rested.

The servant peeped at his face and persuaded: "Is your majesty tired? This servant will call the imperial physician—"

The Son of Heaven shook his head, and only said that it would be good to rest for a while, and he was not allowed to call the imperial doctor to see him.He pressed his forehead hard, and a servant came up to carefully massage his temples, and rubbed the cooling oil made by the imperial hospital.The coolness penetrated from his temples, clearing his slightly drowsy mind, and he sighed softly: "I remember that this medicine was also made in Song Dynasty, and it was passed from Fujian to Beijing. During these years he was away, he rarely took good medicine. gone."

Manager Wang, who was waiting on the side, pondered the holy intentions, and bowed in response: "That's not true. This servant still remembers that Song Sanyuan was most afraid of bugs, and sprinkled mint dew on his body when he went out, so that he could sit and keep the fragrance. He has presided over farming affairs outside these years. He said that he often went to the fields in person, but he didn't know if the problem of being afraid of insects had been cured."

Pitiful for a romantic and famous person, he can't make a fuss in the museum bureau, and he goes to the scenic spots to hold poetry meetings. Now that he is mentioned, the world says that he will do more to promote industry and grow Jiahe.

The emperor closed his eyes and listened to him, and didn't stop him, but he mentioned Song Shi's senior brother again: "His senior brother likes to run outside. He asked me to patrol the border back then, and now he went to the grassland. His wish was fulfilled. The habit of writing wherever he goes has not changed.”

It's just that what I wrote at the beginning was bullet chapters, but now I write grassland chronicles.

"At that time, I heard that his parents died early, and I thought about it, his father was about the same age as me, and I..."

"Your Majesty!" The chief internal officers and the chief executives in front of the hall knelt down on the ground in amazement, advising him not to say such unlucky words. Even the little internal servant who was doing the massage stopped and knelt behind the chair.

Emperor Xintai ignored the attendants all over the floor, and said in a low voice: "At that time, I wanted to promote them, but now I send them to the west and cannot return them. At that time, I was still thinking about my poor health, so I had to teach Huier carefully. Why did you ask him to go to Hanzhong for so many years..."

Although he has many grandchildren Cheng Huan under his knees, how can he compare to the eldest son whom he brought up with his own hands?
