"That's it!~"
Zhunti suddenly realized, senior brother, this is to let their Western disciples stay behind and reap the benefits!
"Remember," Jieyin saw that Zhunti understood his plan, showed a satisfied smile, and warned again: "We, the Western Sect, are the weakest and can only take chestnuts from the fire. We must not be the leader!
Only by gaining enough benefits and gaining enough strength during this calamity can we prosper in the west and become the number one religion in the three realms in the subsequent calamity! "
"Brother, I understand!"
Zhunti nodded: "I will go to Chaoge myself right now... Dongbohou and Nanbohou must be dead! Only the three towns must rebel together to mess up the situation of Dashang and fish in troubled waters!"
"Junior brother, now you truly understand!"
Jieyin showed a look of relief: "Remember, preserve your strength to have a chance to rise!"
Dashang, Chaoge, and the royal palace!
In a palace, the banquet began... The ministers and princes sat in the seats that had been arranged long ago, and sat around the sealed wine pools. In front of them was a forest of wood, with densely packed meat slices hanging on it, exuding the smell of The ultimate alluring aroma of smoky meat.
But no one at the scene had any intention of taking the meat for consumption... Even the most reckless and greedy Xilai was sitting upright on his knees with no intention of moving.
Everyone was still shocked by the death of Jichang in the morning, and even more shocked by the capture of Youli of the Second Town Marquis in the Southeast. No matter how much they thought about eating or drinking, they were afraid that the next person to be killed and imprisoned would fall on themselves!
Of course, the more critical reason is that the Queen, Grand Master, King Wucheng, etc. have not moved!
So, when Di Xin entered the main hall, what he saw was a silent scene where everyone was sitting in danger, not daring to speak!
"Hey, why aren't any of you moving? Are you all waiting for me?"
Di Xin, who was reassured by the system, saw the serious expressions on everyone's faces when he entered, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Your Majesty, the princes have given me a banquet, so how can I leave you out?"
The Grand Master's expression softened, and he stood up with a smile... But that smile made the princes below feel frightened, and there was no warmth at all.
"I dare not agree with what the grand master said. Didn't I already ask the queen to host the banquet? From what I see, you are too restrained!"
Di Xin shook his head, pointed at the Grand Master and joked... The task of giving the banquet was just to promote his extravagant reputation as Di Xin!
It’s not easy to build a wine pond and a meat forest, so you have to spend a lot of money!
"Come here, open the wine cellar and pour the wine! Beauties, start the music and dance!"
As soon as the sound fell, more than ten servants entered... and opened the wine cellar in front of everyone...
A strong smell of wine instantly emitted when the wine cellar was opened... Everyone subconsciously took a sip. The smell was so fragrant! Fine wine!
When Di Xin saw this situation, he felt slightly happy... Where is this going? The real wine has not yet begun!
"Come here, light the fire, steam the wine! Barbecue! Let's eat and drink well today!"
More than a dozen chamberlains scooped out the newly brewed wine from the wine cellar and poured it into the steamer that Di Xin had prepared... For this banquet, Di Xin prepared a small steamer next to everyone's seat. pot.
Moreover, this steamer is specially made. In addition to distilling fine wine, it also comes with a baking pan for grilling meat...
When Di Xin saw the flames ignited in front of him, he started to drink wine... He laughed loudly and took the initiative to reach out his chopsticks to the side...
"I think you must have never seen these things before, so I will demonstrate them to you!"
As he spoke, Di Xin put the bacon on the baking pan...the grease splashed and the sound of sizzling could be heard.
The sizzling and oily meat slices, combined with the rich smoky aroma, and the refined salt particles... In just a moment, a rich and extremely rich aroma spread completely, occupying the entire hall!
"Gulu!"
The ministers swallowed subconsciously...Have they ever smelled the aroma of such delicious food?
Under their gaze, Di Xin chuckled, picked up the roasted meat slices and threw them into his mouth... Then he reached out with a wine glass, scooped up the wine where the wine had just been distilled, and poured it into his mouth.
The barbecue he had not tasted for a long time, coupled with the newly distilled wine of more than 30 degrees, made Di Xin couldn't help but think of the days when he was in college in his previous life, eating barbecue and drinking wine with his classmates!
"Cool!"
[Phew, there’s still a little missing seasoning! If there were cumin and chili pepper, the taste would be almost the same as in the previous life! 】
"Don't just watch, eat together! It's like baking it like this!"
After a mouthful of meat and a sip of wine, Di Xin felt that the pores all over his body were opened... Seeing that everyone was only looking at him and remained motionless, Di Xin waved his chopsticks and asked everyone to help themselves!
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the banquet!"*N!
After receiving the sound of Emperor Xin conferring a banquet, everyone saluted, and the next moment they couldn't wait to stretch their chopsticks to the meat forest around them...
"Hiss! This meat... tastes so delicious!"
"Is this tiger meat? I didn't expect it to taste so delicious after being grilled like this?! The original fishy and sour taste of tiger meat is gone at all?"
"And this refined salt... Oh my God, this is the first time I've tasted such pure salt!"
"Is this how your Majesty lives on a daily basis? Hiss, it really is so exciting!"
Everyone picked up the wonderful barbecue they had never eaten piece by piece. For a moment, the chopsticks couldn't stop... Di Xin saw that the pieces of meat on the meat forest next to each position were rapidly decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Time turned out to be a bit shocking!
You know, the meat he prepared weighed more than ten kilograms per position! There are more than a hundred princes, plus more than a hundred courtiers, that is more than 20,000 kilograms of meat, and it is almost gone?
Not to mention that Di Xin is setting up a meat forest and does not want to prepare more meat... In fact, in this era, there is no breeding, and he can produce 20,000 catties of bacon. He has almost killed all the beasts around Chaoge, is it okay?
But you can't blame Di Xin. How could he have expected that these people could really eat ten pounds of meat! According to the standards of the previous life, if you eat five kilograms of meat, let alone ten kilograms, you are considered a big eater, right?
It's just that in the world of Xianxia, the human race's physique and digestive ability are of course stronger... In addition, people are all princes and courtiers. Although they eat meat on weekdays, why do they have the opportunity to eat it so openly?
Now that I’ve been caught, can’t I make a big deal out of it?
"Ahem, don't just eat meat, drink a few sips of wine too!"
Seeing that his meat forest was almost eaten up, Di Xin became anxious...
【Depend on! Are all of them reincarnated as starving ghosts? I'm here to show off, not to get benefits! 】
"Your Majesty, I respect you!"
Wen Zhong looked at this scene with a smile, raised his glass and saluted Di Xin from afar... Haha, you still want to show off your wine pool and meat forest in front of the princes? Your Majesty, I’m afraid you don’t know that these days, even the princes of the four towns cannot eat meat every day!
Not to mention 20,000 jins, I can make it for you with another 20,000 jins! ~
"drink!"
Di Xinxin looked helplessly at the people who looked like reincarnations of starving ghosts. He raised his glass, touched it with Wen Zhong, and drank it down.
When the ministers saw the Grand Master toasting, they were a little embarrassed... they slowed down their eating of meat a little, but still raised their glasses frequently...
"Your Majesty, I respect you!"
"Queen, I respect you!"
"Master, we must have a drink!"
After drinking a few sips of fine wine, the highly distilled liquor that they had never drunk before made everyone's heads rise for a while... After the wine entered their mouthpieces, everyone was a little dizzy. The shock of Ji Chang's death had just dissipated a lot, and a room There was finally a bit of happiness in the palace...
"This wine... is as clear as water, sweet in the mouth, good wine, good wine!"
"The rumored nectar is nothing more than that, right?"
"Your Majesty is your Majesty, and you can brew such a fine wine... Today, you must not get drunk until you return!"
The atmosphere in the hall was great, with people drinking and drinking, the scene was lively, and countless people were envious of Di Xin's life.
Seeing this situation, Di Xin was extremely satisfied and went down to the stage to have a drink with Yang Jian... Hehe, the effect he wanted was finally achieved!
[That’s it. Your Majesty’s life is much better than you think. 】
[Not only luxury, but also wives... Did you see, I have four wives, all of them are beautiful and fragrant! 】
【Are you envious? Then spread the word quickly... I, Emperor Xin, drink fine wine every day, sleep with beauties, and eat delicious meat... I am very extravagant! 】
Di Xin was flattered by everyone and felt very satisfied when he put his arms around Yang Jian's shoulders under the influence of alcohol...
Yang Jian chuckled in his heart, but he cooperated with Di Xin...in his heart...the king's eyesight is still too shallow!
Wine and food? Your Majesty must have never tasted fairy fruit or fine wine; four beautiful wives? Hey, which of the princes here doesn’t have ten or eight people in his family? Even the dead Ji Chang, when he was young, was a groom every day and entered the bridal chamber every night...
Just eat some meat and drink some wine. Does the king feel extravagant? Hey, Your Majesty, your life is still too hard!
"Your Majesty,"
At this time, Eilai came over with his mouth full of meat and hesitantly said: "I'll have a drink with you!" '
"Evil is coming! Lord and minister..."
When Wen Zhong saw Xilai's modest appearance, he subconsciously wanted to scold him... Di Xin reached out his hand to stop him in a drunken state: "Grand Master, you have to enjoy the banquet. There are no kings and ministers today, only brothers! Xiaolai, come on, Let me have a drink with you!"
Di Xin stood up unsteadily, raised the wine cup and touched it with Erai... Erai didn't expect Di Xin to be so easy-going, his eyes turned red for a moment, he raised the wine glass and took a sip...
Wen Zhong looked at the tears dripping from the corners of E Lai's eyes, and the grateful eyes of the surrounding courtiers... He smiled slightly in his heart... Your Majesty, have you underestimated yourself?
Foolish king? How can a foolish king call his subjects brothers? Tyrant, since you took office, apart from Wei Zi and Ji Chang who were chopped off by Huang Feihu, have you ever harmed an innocent person?
Maybe you are not a domineering and wise king...but you are definitely a benevolent king!
You can rest assured that under your leadership, with ministers and countless loyal ministers from the Great Shang, the Great Shang will surely be the fourth Holy Dynasty of the human race!
"Your Majesty,"
Hou Chonghou Hu of Beizhen was reminded by Queen Jiang, and he stood up and asked: "I have eaten this banquet, and the food in the past can be called pig food! Can you introduce me to how you built this wine pond and meat forest?"
"Haha! You kid, it's not that easy to build a wine pond and meat forest like Gu!"
Di Xin laughed loudly and said arrogantly: "Do you know how much salt and smoke is needed to marinate this meat? How much grain is needed to brew this wine? Let me tell you... brewing these wines can cost a lot of money. We bought more than 100,000 kilograms of grain! This meat and salt cost more than 1,000 kilograms!"
"This is enjoyment, the highest enjoyment that belongs to the King alone... You guys, you can't do this!"
Di Xin raised a finger and shook it provocatively at everyone... At the scene, many courtiers and princes showed envy...
Emperor Xin was even more happy when he saw this situation. He put his arms around Chonghou Hu's shoulders and sat down (under the power of Wen Zhong, without touching the body), and began to talk to him about the operations of curing meat and making wine...
"Do you know how to marinate meat? It needs to be smeared with a lot of salt first...and then smoked... This brewing is more complicated. Not only does it have to dig a pond, but it also has to crush a lot of grain..."
Here, Di Xin is still introducing to the ministers how to make bacon, bacon and wine...
On the other side, Queen Jiang's expression changed. Behind her, Daji, Concubine Huang, Concubine Yang, Madam Jia, and even many wives of ministers who had joined the Women's Congress, had already taken the wives brought by the major princes and brainwashed them...
"Do you know why Dashang can have so much grain for wine making? Do you know about sweet potatoes and potatoes? The yield per mu is sixty shi..."
"Tsk tsk, a little marquis with a bigger territory is worthy of the attention of your marquis? If you ask me, it is better to join the direct branch of Dashang, get sweet potatoes, potato seeds, and learn how to make salt. Then the quality of life will be bad. Did you come up at once?"
"If you ask me, your Marquis is still too stupid... Look at Bei Bohou, his family doesn't have more territory than you? Doesn't his status have a higher status than yours? But he is so smart, he has already handed it over, and now he doesn't have to do anything, just If you can get a lot of tax revenue, your life will be so comfortable..."
"Let me tell you one more thing secretly... The queen has recently obtained the method of growing vegetables... If you join now, you can have vegetables to eat even in such a cold winter!"
"It can improve the quality of life, and it can be protected by the big businessmen and the army, so there is no need to scrimp and save money to support the army. Such a good thing, why not speed up the work?"
"Look at the treasury next to it, how full it is? There are more than a dozen new warehouses, and they can hardly fit in them... As long as you join Dashang, you can also enjoy the luxurious life of eating meat and drinking wine every day like the king!"
The concubines, and even everyone in the Women's Congress, under Mrs. Jia's plan, took the initiative to lobby the princes to join the big merchants...
Of course, when they lobby, they don't just grab any princes and lobby them... Mainly the princes of Beidi and Jizhou, as well as a few princes and ministers outside the three towns...
The purpose is to gather all the forces outside the three towns as soon as possible and bring them all under the management of Dashang...
It has to be said that with the testimony of this wine pool and meat forest, plus the treasury warehouse next to the palace that Wen Zhong deliberately opened... many ladies were tempted, and even some princes and ministers took the initiative to ask after hearing their words. Do you want to apply to join the direct management of Dashang...
"As long as you join, you can get seeds? Your Majesty won't look for opportunities to reduce your rank, right?"
"Is your title worthy of the king's attention? The king just cares about the people... Look at Bei Bohou, isn't he still the marquis of Zhen? Have you ever had half of your title reduced?"
"I heard from the Grand Master a few days ago that he seems to want Beibohou to take up an important position in Chaoge..."
"I heard that Dashang is considering changing the imperial system, and many positions of real power are vacant... If you don't join now, all the important positions will be taken away, and by then it will be too late..."
In order to acquire people and land, Mrs. Jia and others even temporarily changed their lobbying strategies and even spoke out about the big businessmen's desire to reform the law!
It has to be said that the situation of Chonghou Hu is indeed a role model... For a time, countless dukes whose status was inferior to Chonghou Hu were moved...
"I'm joining!"
"I'll join in too!"
In this way, under the design of Wen Zhong and Mrs. Jia, Emperor Xin showed off his extravagant strategy. Not only did it fail, but more than a hundred feudal princes chose to join the direct subordinates of Dashang...
I hope readers will support me a lot! Be sure to order all of them! ~
