The moon was sparse, and although the Tai Chi Hall was large, Yu Xiaoqian, who had been well prepared, still managed to maintain the eunuch's inner temperature in a relatively warm range.
As for Du Shaodu?
Sorry, there is no thermometer in this era, I can only rely on personal feelings.
This winter, Li Mingda misses his heated small attic in Princess Jinyang's Mansion very much. Unfortunately, he can't go back. The structure of the palace in Tai Chi Palace is complicated and the heating system is not very stable, so Li Mingda Mingda did not renovate the Tai Chi Hall and the Royal Study Room, and continued to wait for some time.
It will take a boiler that can withstand high-intensity pressure. Large furnaces can't do it, but small furnaces can still do it, right? A furnace with a similar structure to that of Jiangnan Shipyard is placed in the Tai Chi Hall.
These little eunuchs didn't know the internal structure. The temperature of the small stove burning charcoal fire exceeded Baidu, and they didn't worry about the unlucky official trying to open it.
Half an hour before the banquet started, the princes and nobles of the aristocratic families who were qualified to attend the banquet came out one after another from various towns in Chang'an City. They gathered on the main road and began to move towards the main entrance of Tai Chi Palace.
The strictest security moment in Chang'an City has begun. The Jinwu Guards and the Holy Army with triple sentries are in the open, and the Jinyi Guards Baiqisi are silently monitoring behind the scenes.
To prevent some people from taking advantage of such a large gathering of Datang senior officials to do something crazy.
Fortunately, there is no such thing as a car bomb in this era, so these officials were escorted by their respective generals and servants along the way and arrived at the main entrance of Tai Chi Palace safely.
At the main entrance of Tai Chi Palace, Wei Yan was wearing a full set of heavy armor, with a horizontal sword across his waist. He was patrolling the scene with a team of elite holy soldiers. He saw whether the imperial guards at the entrance of Tai Chi Palace were strictly screening the people who entered, and whether they were intentional. To make things difficult is to say that there is some secret behind it.
Wei Yan was overly nervous. The imperial guards, palace maids, and eunuchs in the Tai Chi Palace were all selected after several rounds of screening. Those who were not suitable received secondary training. If they had ulterior motives, they would naturally not be polite if caught.
At the gate of Tai Chi Palace, a group of noble princes were also unhurried and silently accepted the inspection, as if they were familiar with the road.
Among these people, the most eye-catching one is Chai Lingwu. Although he is not very young, he seems to be not very energetic, but his status is there.
The cousin of the Holy Emperor Mingzun, the hereditary and irreplaceable Duke of the Tang Dynasty, was trusted by Li Mingda and entrusted with important tasks, overseeing the construction of the Jiangnan Shipyard and the East China Sea Fleet.
The current East China Sea Fleet is very popular in the south. This is the first army ordered by Li Mingda to form. It also followed Li Mingda northward, completed a thousand-mile journey, and helped Li Mingda ascend to the throne.
A series of names are pouring in, and the complicated power relations in the south are being gradually cleared up. All kinds of people in the previously troubled waters want a good place to go. The East China Sea Fleet recruits people in an eclectic way. If not early Compared with the full staff, if Li Mingda is willing to expand, he can recruit another 100,000 people.
There were fewer and fewer people at the entrance of Tai Chi Palace, and more and more people were inside Tai Chi Palace. As time went by, 5 minutes before the banquet started, except for Li Mingda and his family, everyone else arrived one after another.
Since there was no royal family banquet this time, some family members also attended along with their husbands.
Yu Xiaoqian looked at the hourglass. With about a minute left, Li Mingda took Murong Xue, Wu Jue, Zheng Wanli, Xu Hui, Xiaoxiao, Liuli and other family members, together with Lao Li, Changsun, and Li Zhi, into the back door of Tai Chi Hall. .
"The Holy Emperor Mingzun has arrived"
The name called here is Li Mingda, which should be because Li Mingda is currently the controller of Datang, with Li Shimin and Changsun behind.
The three of them sat down first, followed by Li Zhi and Murong Xue, followed by Xiaoxiao, Xu Hui, Wu Jue, and Zheng Wanli.
After everyone sat down, Li Mingda said: "Everyone, please get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty"
The ministers and their families took their seats
Next it was Li Mingda's turn to speak.
As a good boy who hates meetings and doesn't like talking, Li Mingda decided to give up the long manuscript and improvise.
"Everyone, the new year is coming. Here I wish you all a happy new year. In the past New Year's banquets, this princess also said a lot of harsh words. Here it is still a count. Blessings are blessings. The law of the Tang Dynasty is the law of the Tang Dynasty. I believe that you all know what you are doing, so it’s not like you don’t report that the time has not come yet.”
The people below are confused
ヾ(｡｀Д´｡)
Yu Xiaoqian and Fang Xuanling also covered their faces in disbelief.
uncle
His Majesty
It's New Year
You can't always do this.
Li Shimin gradually became interested in it.
"I still prepare a chance for you to come to my Imperial Study Room to confess your sins honestly after your age. I will give you a lenient punishment according to the situation. If not, those colleagues in the past who cannot go back will be your role models."
"I know this is very disappointing. After all, it is the New Year. Let's drink wine and enjoy the prosperity of this world."
After Li Mingda finished speaking, Yu Xiaoqian gestured towards Yue.
The melodious and impassioned music of King Qin breaking the formation sounded.
Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this familiar tone. He actually kept the first song for me at the beginning. I feel so relieved. She is our favorite, most distressed and most satisfied daughter.
That’s good~!
Especially after taking the medicine given by my daughter, my health is getting better and better, and the white hair on my belly that I used to have is gone.
Li Shimin was very happy. The people below were so surprised at Li Shimin's changes that they could stuff duck eggs into their mouths.
It's incredible
Last year, Li Shimin, a middle-aged man with a bulging belly, a face that was about to bulge, and some white hair, turned into a 30-year-old handsome man with jet black hair and a well-proportioned figure.
Li Shimin, are you lying?
During the subsequent exchange of cups and cups, Li Shimin's performance dispelled their concerns. In addition to becoming younger, he was also the familiar example of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Tian Khan, and there are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me. Li Shimin.
He didn't run away at all, it was him, and the eldest grandson was much younger, making the family members of the noble princes full of envy.
The climax of this banquet was the picture of barbecued skewers in the snow painted by Yan Liben as a gift from the officials. Of course, people don’t call it this, it’s called the picture of monarchs and ministers having fun in the snow.
In the extremely large scroll, the characters present are depicted in great detail. Even the Oscar urine yellow and pits on the stone nearby are exactly the same.
Li Mingda expressed his love for it and hung it in the imperial study. At the same time, he also gave Yan Liben a reward.
After the palace banquet, the ministers and their families left, and the New Year's banquet ended. The banquet was mediocre, which did not mean that the New Year was ordinary. Li Mingda had a lot of cards to play.
