'Why is this kid always staring at me? '
Li Qing was a little unhappy, but it was hard to say anything to him. He was still immersed in the pleasure of eating.
A hundred years of professional feasting is beyond the reach of only a few people.
This time, not only Zhu Youqian was dumbfounded, but Zhu Youtang also had a weird look on his face.
However, Li Qing was the hero who saved his father. Although Zhu Youtang was slightly dissatisfied, he couldn't say anything and could only ignore his rudeness.
All the officials saw this and were very angry.
Such a waste of natural resources, such a waste of natural resources!
Having a banquet with the two emperors is such a rare opportunity. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but what is this guy doing?
They were filled with panic, and they were not just worried. If it were them, they would have to maximize their political interests. How could they be so wasteful?
Is eating a banquet a banquet?
No!
It’s human nature!
But this Divine Doctor Li... just wanted to eat, and even dared to compete with the Supreme Emperor and the little eunuch who served the Emperor. He was simply... lawless.
The last person to be so fierce was Yongqinghou Li Qing!
However, what is the identity, status, and favor of Ren Yongqinghou...
How can you, a little doctor, compare with Yongqing Hou?
There were too many people who were unhappy with Yongqing Hou, but they were still convinced because Li Qing almost never broke the rules and defeated them all within the rules.
They lost, but they didn't blame anyone.
It's true that I hate Li Qing, but deep down I have respect for him.
However, today a young doctor seemed to be the second best to Li Qing, which made them very unhappy.
There was sullenness, but mostly jealousy.
What a great opportunity, this country bumpkin... they're not angry.
However, Li Qing saved the Supreme Emperor. With this credit alone, they couldn't make irresponsible remarks. Didn't they dare to criticize him harshly without looking at the Emperor?
Zhu Jianshen glanced at the ministers, then at Li Qing, secretly amused: This guy is really good at inciting hatred, how can he make others angry?
At this time, Li Qing seemed to notice Meng Lang and slowly sat down.
'I guess you still have some sense of awe. '
The ministers felt a little better.
The feeling of wanting something so much and asking for it but not getting it, only to have it squandered by a country bumpkin is really uncomfortable.
unexpectedly,
The next moment, they were stunned again.
Li Qing asked: "Your Majesty, do you still want to eat this dish?" gōΠb.ōγg
The royal table was very long, and you couldn't eat every dish even if you stood up to pick up the dishes. However, the emperor was an exception because there was a young eunuch serving the dishes.
Li Qing suddenly felt that it was too stupid to get up to pick up the food. It would be better to just eat the ready-made food.
Zhu Youqian was shocked.
Zhu Youtang was also stunned, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"I haven't moved this one yet, here it is." Zhu Jianshen smiled and nodded, handed the plate that the young eunuch had served him, and said in a funny voice, "You don't have to serve it to me, just serve it to Divine Doctor Li."
The servant who was doing the laundry was also stunned. After a while, he said: "I obey the order."
Then, he began to serve Li Qing.
'That's not true! '
'It's an insult to gentlemen! '
'I'm so angry! '
When the officials saw this scene, they almost vomited blood and wanted to rush up to catch him and beat him.
Li Qingcai didn't care what they thought, he still went his own way.
The reputation of an official position is just a cloud, and you can earn it only when you eat it.
…
Li Qing didn't even make a toast, he just shook his cheeks and looked reluctant even when the Emperor invited him to drink.
The ministers were very angry.
Finally, a quarter of an hour later, he was full.
Li Qing wiped his mouth, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the common people have eaten enough, please leave."
After a banquet, which usually lasts no less than an hour, he is full and naturally does not want to waste time here.
Zhu Youzhao couldn't help it and said dissatisfied: "Aren't you too ungrateful?"
Not only is it uncouth, it's simply...excessive! The ministers glared angrily.
Li Qing said with a smile: "The common people are used to being idle and don't know the rules of the palace. Please make it clear to His Highness Prince Xing."
Zhu Youqi: "..."
Zhu Jianshen was also a little unhappy: If I ask you to eat, you will eat. You are too lazy to deal with the situation. I really spoil you.
He glared at Li Qing bitterly.
Li Qing said: "Your Majesty, I am going back to study the prescription."
"Then if that's the case, you should go back quickly." Zhu Jianshen nodded, "Do you need a sedan?"
"That's no need," Li Qing grinned: "As the saying goes: After a meal, walk a hundred steps and live to be ninety-nine; I will eat it."
Zhu Jianshen: "..."
Li Qing cupped his hands, turned around, and walked straight away from the central passage of the banquet, Shi Shiran...
With Li Qing's departure, the mood of the officials gradually turned from cloudy to clear, and this annoying guy was finally gone.
Zhu Youqian was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Qing's rudeness and said, "Father, this person is too self-possessed."
"Let him go, the prime minister can support the boat, let alone me?" Zhu Jianshen didn't care at all. At this moment, he was more kind than his kind son, and said with a smile, "There is nothing wrong with doing what you want."
Zhu Youtiao pursed his lips and said nothing more.
Even his father didn't care, so he had nothing to say.
Seeing this, Zhu Youtang, who had originally criticized Li Qing, stopped talking and started talking about other things.
While chatting, the topic came up that Zhu Youtang still had no heirs.
Zhu Jianshen said: "Youzhang, it is still necessary to get close to the harem properly."
What he said was tactful, but not too cryptic, and everyone could understand the deep meaning.
Hearing this, the bigwigs immediately became interested in the table of ministers, ministers' table, and bachelor's table which were very close to the emperor's imperial table, and pricked up their ears to listen.
Zhu Youtang said: "Father, my sons and ministers carry the Ming Dynasty and the country on their shoulders. They are connected to millions of people. They often reflect on themselves and work conscientiously. They just want to live up to their ancestors and the people of the Ming Dynasty. How can they have the intention to think otherwise?" Yes?"
Zhu Jianshen glanced at him and said: "Combining work and rest, you are not going to be the emperor for a day, nor are you going to be the emperor for a year. If you relax properly, your ancestors will not blame you."
"My son is not fully familiar with government affairs yet. He will...become familiar with it later." Zhu Youtang made an excuse.
Zhu Jian took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay, you have your own ideas, just follow your ideas."
It is a good thing that my son is diligent and unwilling to indulge in women.
The eldest son is not yet twenty years old. There is no need to worry about the emperor's heir now. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.
He himself has accumulated a lot of money, and he will have a lot of concubines in his life. As an emperor, as long as he is willing, there is no shortage of concubines.
It's rare for his son to be ambitious, so Zhu Jianshen can't stop him.
However, it would also be great if I could have a grandchild sooner.
Zhu Jianshen said: "I will call Divine Doctor Li into the palace another day and ask him to show Xiao Zhang."
"Xiao Zhang is fine. The imperial doctor has seen him." Zhu Youtang protected his wife.
"How can they have any ability? They are far inferior to Li...Miracle Doctor Li." Zhu Jianshen snorted, "If they are really all right, why can't they give birth to an heir?"
Zhu Youtang nodded sadly: "Then let's take what the father said."
"That's right," Zhu Jianshen snorted, "That guy has good medical skills, much better than the imperial doctor."
When the ministers saw this, they were a little disappointed, but they did not dare to ask the emperor to have a concubine.
They remember clearly how Wan An stepped down.
…
Lianjiatun'er.
When Li Qing arrived home, Wang Shouren was already waiting at the door.
"When did you come?"
"I've just been here a while ago," Wang Shouren smiled and asked, "Sir, your lunch is a bit late today!"
"Hey, who says it isn't?" Li Qing took out the key and opened the door, muttering, "I didn't know that the banquet started so late, I had to wait for a long time."
"Have a feast... Sir, has he entered the palace?"
"Ang, you have nothing to do when you're free, and you don't have to follow the crowd, so why don't you go?"
Wang Shouren nodded in amusement, and then asked curiously: "Is the palace meal delicious?"
"That's necessary," Li Qing smacked his lips and said, "Especially the emperor's table, which has hundreds of dishes and a dazzling array of delicacies from the mountains and seas..."
After a pause, he joked: "What, are you hungry?"
"No, I'm just curious." Wang Shouren scratched his head.
Li Qing laughed: "Study hard and make progress every day; there will be opportunities in the future."
With that said, Li Qing unlocked the door and entered the small courtyard. Wang Shouren stepped into the threshold, turned around and closed the door before stepping forward.
"Sir, what are you studying today?"
"First, familiarize yourself with the skills I taught you yesterday," Li Qing took it out, leaned on the recliner, and said lazily, "You practice yours first, and I'll keep a steady diet."
Wang Shouren nodded and began to practice bow shooting...
The sun was so abundant that it made people doze off, and due to physical laziness after the meal, Li Qing fell asleep without even realizing it...
"Sir, sir..."
"I'll sleep a little longer, and you can continue practicing." Li Qing didn't sleep enough and was too lazy to open his eyes.
Wang Shouren smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, get up quickly, the imperial envoy is here."
"Imperial envoy..." Li Qing opened his eyes faintly, "Oh, it's true."
Seeing that he was awake, the eunuch who delivered the order cleared his throat and said, "Divine Doctor Li has received the order."
"The common people accept the order." Li Qing stood up, but did not kneel.
"Divine Doctor Li received the order." The eunuch who delivered the order was dissatisfied and repeated.
"Sir..." Wang Shouren on the side gave him a wink.
Li Qing waved his hand to indicate that nothing was wrong, took off the jade plaque tied around his waist, raised it, and said: "The Emperor has given us permission not to kneel."
The eunuch who delivered the order was slightly startled, his expression of dissatisfaction disappeared, and he started reading directly...
The decree is quite long, and the general meaning is that Li Qing cured me, and my son was very happy and wanted to reward Li Qing.
However, the people of Lao Zhu's family are becoming more and more stingy with each generation.
For such a great achievement, the reward was only two hundred taels of gold, one thousand taels of silver, fifty bolts of silk, one dou each of pearls and agate, and... a pair of emperor's calligraphy treasures.
Having said that, these rewards are enough for ordinary people to have enough food and clothing for a lifetime.
After the eunuch recited the reward, he changed the subject and said, "Come on, Divine Doctor Li will enter the palace immediately to express your gratitude."
Li Qing was curious: "Why does the emperor want me to enter the palace?"
"You still don't accept the order?"
Li Qing stepped forward to receive the imperial edict and asked, "Why does the emperor want me to enter the palace?"
"...You'll know when you go there."
Li Qing was displeased: "Don't say anything during the meal. You have to make an extra trip, right?"
He took out a golden ingot from the reward and said, "Eunuch, you might as well tell me clearly so that I can be prepared."
When the eunuch saw how grand he was, his unhappiness disappeared instantly and he whispered: "The queen is not in good health, and the emperor has ordered you to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment."
"What? Are you treating the Queen again?"
