Chapter 38: Cleansing Yourself from the Good Times
Cleaned up the evil slaves,
Tang Jing crossed the stunned purple clothes, entered the hall, and sat down opposite Tang Rou.
"You, do you want to eat?"
Tang Rou finally noticed Tang Jing, a stranger, although he had never seen it, he was very familiar, and somehow, there was a sense of natural closeness.
It's weird!
Perhaps, Tang Jing is so handsome that he doesn't look like a bad person.
"Okay."
Tang Jing's smile was gentle, like a spring light.
"Then you eat this, this is delicious." Tang Rou subconsciously protected the millet porridge in her arms, and pushed a plate of black dried fish to Tang Jing.
"Then I'll taste it."
Tang Jing picked up a pair of unused chopsticks on the desk, pinched a piece of dried fish, and put it in his mouth.
Tight again,
Hard again,
A smoky smell.
In the diet of the Shang Dynasty, beef was the most expensive, followed by mutton and poultry, and fish again.
As for the mainstream pork in later generations, the upper class did not eat it, and the bottom people could not afford to eat it, and it had not yet become the mainstream on the table, and it was not even as good as fish.
Why?
Because the pigsty of this era was built with the toilet.
Toilet on top,
The pigsty is below, also known as the pig prison.
Got it?
The upper nobility considered pork to be unclean and preferred to chew dried fish rather than eat pork.
I'm afraid that only in Tingshan, Tang Jing took the lead in eating pork, and also invented several new ways to eat pork in Shuofengju, and the people of Tingshan found that pork is really delicious!
With the spread of merchants, pork eating gradually became popular in some parts of the Tang Kingdom, but it was far from becoming the mainstream, especially Yaocheng, which was the royal capital.
Born old-fashioned.
Thanks to the dense water network of Chengping Mansion, many rivers, and abundant fish resources, fish meat has become a frequent guest on the table of the royal capital circle.
What the nobles really enjoyed was fresh fish,
It's not the kind of fish that Tang Jing eats, there is no salt, and the dried fish is only tanned by simple methods such as drying and smoking, which is tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it.
The price is not as good as the seasonal vegetables in winter.
After eating a piece of dried fish, Tang Jing put down his chopsticks and said to Ziyi, who was still standing stupidly under the eaves: "Go and pack the princess's bags, and then follow me out of the palace." ”
"Out of the palace?"
Tang Rou's cold eyes finally flashed a hint of brilliance, and he hesitated: "You, who are you?" ”
"I'm the third brother."
Tang Rou was only five years old when she separated from him, and ten years have passed, and her memories are blurred.
"Are you really the third brother?" Tang Rou's right hand trembled slightly.
"You forget, when I was a child, I often took you and Jia'er to the lake to play."
"Then why didn't you come and see me?"
"I ....."
Tang Jing was stuck for a while, and he didn't know how to explain it.
…………
Unexpectedly, the day after Tang Jing picked up Tang Rou, Concubine Ge sent someone to send Zhu's mother and her family to the hidden mansion, "The young concubine said, Zhu's mother can't live if she does her own sin, and she will be at the disposal of her son." ”
"And ......"
The waiter handed over a gift list, "The prince will get married in three days, and the young concubine has specially prepared a thin gift." ”
Tang Jing glanced at the gift list, and his eyes were full of precious things such as jade, brocade, fur, etc., and there was even a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the royal capital.
"Thank you for me, young concubine, but what else do you have to explain?"
The waiter was even happier, "The young concubine said that Gongzi and Gongzi Qiu are both outgoing sons, and they should have a common language, so they can walk around more closely in the future." ”
"Got it."
Tang Jing pondered the meaning of Concubine Ge's words, "Gongzi Qiu, do you also have ambitions for the throne?" "Gongzi Qiu's fief is in Pingshan Mansion, which is the old fief of Tang Gongmi when he was a son.
I've heard that it's quite active.
"Interesting!"
Putting down the gift list, Tang Jing summoned Huanjie, "Demote Na Zhu's mother to a slave, and still send her to the princess's courtyard to serve, and it is up to the princess to decide what to do." ”
"Understood!"
Knowing what happened to the princess in the palace, Huanjie was also very angry.
In Dashang,
Slavery and slavery are two completely different concepts.
The palace maids are slaves, and most of them are commoners, free people, and even squires, and even high-ranking officials and nobles take the initiative to send their daughters to the palace as palace maids.
Although he is a slave, if the king forgives him, he can be released from the palace and marry normally.
Slaves are different, they have no human rights at all, they can be bought and sold by their masters, and even their children and grandchildren are slaves, and their ancestors cannot be transcended.
There is no punishment again, it could be more fun than this.
Yesterday, Tang Rou questioned, and Tang Jing, who asked, was speechless, feeling that he owed this sister a lot, so he naturally wanted to think of a way to compensate.
"When you went to see Jia'er yesterday, what did you talk about?" Tang Jing asked again.
"What Miss asked were some details of Childe's life in Tingshan, interesting facts, and ......"
"What else?"
"Also, Childe's romantic debt." The face of the festival is strange.
For the sake of self-stigma,
Since Tang Jing was fifteen years old, he often went out to wine shops and the land of wind and moon in Tingshan, and within two years, he won the name of a swinger in the Tang Kingdom.
"And how did you answer?"
"The maid said, those are all rumors, and the son is still very clean."
"Good!"
Tang Jing glanced at Huanjie, the latter's body tightened, and he slipped away.
…………
Stay in Sand City.
"The general's plan has failed." The chieftain couldn't hide his disappointment.
"The last general has not thought it through, and I ask the chief to punish him!"
Kong Xuan was ashamed, the plan failed, he didn't expect two.
Unexpectedly, Gongzi Jing was so young and had such a open-minded pattern, he was obviously lured to the royal capital, and he could not bear not to take the fire crow soldiers and skeleton army with him.
Soon after Gongzijing left Tingshan, the skeleton army patrolled the valley.
Not long ago,
When the Tingshan cavalry was fighting with Bai Hao's scouts, they directly sacrificed the fire crow sac.
no doubt
These are all warnings from Teiyama.
Second, I didn't expect that the attitude of Queqiu Kingdom was so firm, and after the court confronted him, the envoy of Queqiu Kingdom found the envoy of Susha Kingdom alone and expressed the attitude of Queqiu Kingdom.
In this way,
The Susha Kingdom was unable to send surprise troops to attack Tingshan, nor did it have the confidence to launch a war to destroy the country.
It's a complete failure.
"Let's let Tang Guo stumble for a while." Yi Mu Xun was very unwilling, if it weren't for the night plan, with his violent temper, he would have sent troops a long time ago.
"For the fortress that is about to be built, the general will have to worry a little more." Strange Mou Xun instructed.
In this era when martial arts are prevalent and star beasts are everywhere, except for super fortresses like Tongguan, Sanshan Pass, Yousoul Pass, and Chentang Pass, no fortress is indestructible.
It depends on how much it costs to prepare for a comeback.
"Rest assured, the chief will definitely find a way to find out the details of the fortress in the valley." Kong Xuan was most puzzled by how Tingshan solved the water source problem.
…………
Night, dive house.
In the warm pavilion, Zhong Xiong and Huanjie are both henchmen, and there are guards guarding the door.
Tomorrow is the day of the wedding, but Tang Jing was pondering the question of how to leave the royal capital, and looked at Zhong Xiong, "In the past few days, how has the pro-guard team been trying?" ”
"There are at least twelve secret outposts around the dive mansion, and it cannot be ruled out that some of them are guarded by soldiers. Every guard who goes out will be followed, and when they reach the city gate, they will be stopped by the guards of the Mingguang Brigade for various reasons. ”
Nakaoha was worried.
"Where's your side?" Tang Jing looked at Huanjie again.
"Cangshu sent someone to send a secret letter, saying that in the suburbs of the royal capital, all official roads, including mountain roads and paths, have Mingguang Brigade cards, the reason is to prevent the retaliation of the Susha State, improve combat readiness, and make a detailed inventory. The Wuhammer Brigade of Danling Prefecture also showed signs of moving to the periphery of Tingshan, that is, letting the Tingshan army cause chaos. "The voice of the festival is low.
"So, I can't go back?"
The two were silent.
"Let's leave it at that, as long as the Susha Kingdom does not destroy the construction of the Valley Fortress and temporarily traps the royal capital, it is not a big deal. Let's do it when the opportunity arises. Tang Jing said.
This time I came to the royal capital,
In addition to the strength on the surface, he also brought five hundred skeleton soldiers.
No matter how much it is, it doesn't work.
Even if the Fire Raven Soldiers and Skeleton Army are transferred, there is no way to confront the Mingguang Brigade head-on, and the five hundred skeleton soldiers are just to save their lives at a critical juncture.
Especially in front of a master like Hetuo, Tang Jing didn't even have a chance to summon skeleton soldiers.
Entered the palace before,
If Tang Jing dares to have any disobedient thoughts, he will definitely die a miserable death.
"Inform Cang Shu and send someone to check the details of Gongzi Qiu." Tang Jing suddenly remembered something.
