The east hall of the Xuanshu Hall is still the same as it was, only solemn and solemn, not smart and lively. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After sitting down, Liu Xun praised the heating first, and said, "Finally, I don't have to smell the unpleasant smell of charcoal." ”

Before Cheng Mo used pipes to heat his mansion, only people with a solid situation could afford to buy charcoal, and the best silver frost charcoal could only be used by the noble ministers, and people above the top maids in the mansion could use it. But now, the price of charcoal has plummeted, and it's just that the old antiques who don't want to be flexible are using charcoal.

Cheng Mo just returned to Beijing, and he didn't have time to ask Zhang Qing what step he had done in the heating of Beijing, and he didn't have time to go to the slum to see. ”

When Liu Xun lived in his house, he also enjoyed heating and got used to it. The two took advantage of this topic to talk about some old things, Cheng Mo said: "I didn't expect Your Majesty to be the true dragon emperor, the minister is just a gesture, and Your Majesty has given too much to the minister." The matter of the Huns has been decided, and the minister wants to take his wife and daughter around and enjoy the mountains and rivers. ”

Now that he has made great achievements, not retreating is the way to die, and only by retreating can he save his life. Besides, when he came to this world, he hadn't had a good time, and when he first came through, he made a big wish to eat and wait for death, but he never succeeded. First in order to survive and create a comfortable residence, then into the blue eyes of Emperor Zhao, every day was called to chat, after Emperor Zhao died, Liu Xun succeeded to the throne, he soared, even more involuntarily. Now, no matter what, he decided to take a big vacation and play first.

Liu Xun remembered that he was not welcome at the beginning, and everyone smiled bitterly when they saw him like a snake and scorpion, and said: "The emperor's grandfather pardoned me, I want to be an ordinary person and spend this life safely, but if I want to work, no one is willing to use me, so I can only do short-term work." ”

When he was still in infancy when he was released from prison, Emperor Wu had let his grandmother Shi adopt him, and when he was a teenager, Shi died, and his uncles discussed and kicked him out of the house, and since then he has been unable to make a living, or Xu Laohan saw that he was pitiful, and let him live in a broken thatched hut near his home, until he met Cheng Mo, his life was improved.

Recalling the past, Liu Xun felt like a dream.

Cheng Mo said: "Your Majesty's auspicious nature, how can the small people see through it?" It's just some poor ignorant people. ”

These people oppressed Liu Xun when he was in danger, and when he was the emperor, they blamed him for not remembering the old feelings. There are only old grudges, how can there be old feelings?

"Big brother is right." Liu inquired: "Big brother has just returned to Beijing, why do you want to leave Beijing?" Zhang Shishilang is going to get married, you have to drink his wedding wine, and in a few days Qiao Qing and others will return to Beijing, and I will be rewarded for their merits, and the eldest brother must also be present, and then the New Year is approaching. ”

In this way, you can't leave before the Chinese New Year. Cheng Mo said: "The minister left Beijing quietly, and the credit is also for General Qiao and others, and he has no relationship with the minister." Bounties don't have to be. After drinking the wedding wine of the Twelve Langs, the minister wanted to leave, and asked His Majesty for permission. ”

Liu Xun was willing to agree, and said, "I still have important things to entrust." ”

Cheng Mo only shook his head and said, "The minister wants to magnify the fake." ”

The two negotiated while eating, refusing to let each other go, Xiao Luzi waited on the side, and couldn't help but interject: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, you all have to say less." According to the slaves, the prime minister is far away from the Saiwai, and he should also take a holiday, so it is better to wait for the Lantern Festival to return to the court. ”

He reminded Liu Xun that Cheng Mo's wish could be fulfilled, but this wish had a time limit, only one month.

You, the little eunuch, still sat on the throne of the eunuch head with my help, and now you are working with the emperor to fool me? Cheng Mo rolled his eyes and said, "It's almost the Laba Festival, the New Year is approaching, and there are a lot of things to do, so there is not much time to really play." Your Majesty might as well give the minister a year off, and the Lantern Festival in the year after tomorrow, the minister will definitely return. ”

"Next year's Lantern Festival." Liu Xun made a final decision and said, "That's it." ”

Still don't let people live? Cheng Mo was speechless.

After eating, Liu asked Cheng Mo how to arrange the pot Yanti. Cheng Mo said: "This person is a white-eyed wolf, you can't be too good to him, you can't give him too much, don't agree to his requests, and you can't let him stay in the capital for too long, drive him back before the New Year, ambush him on the road, and kill him." ”

Liu Xun bowed his head slightly, and said: "He is eloquent and strategic, if he is allowed to leave safely, the grassland will be turbulent." ”

Cheng Mo agreed: "It must be so." ”

Then the two began to discuss the details. When Cheng Mo left Weiyang Palace, the palace door closed behind him, and it was dark early in winter, and he couldn't see his five fingers for a long time.

I wish the third brother to enter the palace on duty, but knowing that Cheng Mo was discussing matters in the East Palace, he didn't bother him, Wukong and Zhang Qing and others were still waiting in the mansion, and they also put down any important things, and drinking with Cheng Mo was the most important thing.

They heard Su Miaohua say that they had kidnapped more than 1 million head of cattle, sheep and livestock from the Huns, and shouted that they wanted to roast the suckling sheep, and they began to let the cook fiddle with it in the afternoon.

As soon as Cheng Mo entered the door, he smelled a familiar smell and said with a smile: "What's wrong?" ”

In the past few months, he has eaten this every day, and he wants to vomit just by smelling it.

Zhang Qing was impatient, cut off half of the leg of mutton with a knife, was so hot that he jumped to his feet, and said, "It's so fragrant, let me finish eating it first." ”

Su Miaohua just went back to her parents' house to visit her father and came back, seeing that her father was all right and in a good mood, she smiled and said: "When it is golden brown, and then apply a layer of honey on it, it is delicious, you eat it like this, it doesn't taste like that." ”

The color of the position cut by Zhang Qing is a little golden, but it is close to the position of the sheep's hooves, the meat is less and the bones are more, the Huns like to eat fatty mutton, and this place is not very popular. After he cut it off, he didn't care about the burn, and stuffed it directly into his mouth, and he was so hot that he screamed, making Wukong and the others laugh.

Zhang Qing gnawed a few mouthfuls of sheepskin, threw down the leg of mutton, and was disappointed, and said, "Could it be that the sheep is not authentic?" Why do I find it so unpalatable? ”

Su Miaohua disdainfully: "I told you that the way to eat is wrong." ”

She also roasted the suckling sheep on the grass wish, which was roasted for Cheng Mo, and her skills were quite skilled, so she stepped forward at the moment, asked the cook to step back, and roasted it.

But after a while, he smeared honey water on the sheep, and the aroma permeated the three or four layers of the yard, Zhang Qing's saliva flowed down, and he shouted: "No, I want to eat." ”

Cheng Mo shook his head with a smile: "Is this the person who wants to get married?" I think it's about the same age as Jiajia, right? ”

Jiajia and Qingqing have been around the shelf for a long time, but the fire is too big, the two dare not get too close, the corners of their mouths are flowing crystal clear saliva, Qingqing is even more unbearable, and some saliva drips fall on the placket.

Hearing her father call her name, Jiajia ran over, hugged her father's leg, and said, "Roast mutton." ”

She had been listening to it for a long time, and these three words appeared most frequently.

Cheng Mo hugged her and sighed: "You teach my daughter badly." ”
