Chapter 1112 Banquet(1/2)

Previously, Emperor Longzheng complained to Prince Zhongyi Ying Xiang in the study room, saying that the Jia family was extravagant and enjoyed pleasure and enjoyment, and was even more generous than the emperor, and that it had a root cause.

Whether it is the Black Ice Platform or the CRRC Mansion, there are eyeliners in the Jia family.

Of course, they are basically concentrated in Rongguo Mansion and Grand View Garden, and Ningguo Mansion, and very few are there.

It is these eyeliners who report all the life of the Jia family, regardless of size.

Jia Huan knew this very well, but he didn't care.

If you really need to clean it all, it will make people even more concerned.

Therefore, even one or two left in Ningguo Mansion, and more in Rongguo Mansion and Garden.

Among these eyeliners are servants in the front yard, maids in the back yard, and even old Chenren who had been in the Jia family for several lifetimes, and had children at home.

But no matter what their identity is, as long as they do things in peace, Jia Huan ignored the others, and the Qingxiao people stared at them...

Grand View Garden, night banquet.

After learning from Xue Baochai that Jia Huan went to Daguan Building and "reconciled" with Jia Yuanchun, Jia Mu was really happy.

This is the most happy news for her recently.

After receiving the affirmation of Gongsun Yu, the imperial concubine did not hinder the incident, Jia Mu arranged to have a family dinner tonight.

The location is in the Daguan Building. It was originally planned to place two tables, one table for men outside and one table for men inside.

However, Jia Huan said, since it is a family dinner, the family should have a reunion and dinner. They are all close relatives, so why should they be divided into internal and external?

There are not many gaps in the two palaces.

When Jia Mu heard this, she was even more happy and asked Wang Xifeng, Li Wan and Jia Tanchun, who was studying housework, to prepare.

If you just let Li Wan and Jia Tanchun prepare, you might be able to prepare properly or be generous and decent.

But add another Wang Xifeng...

With her personality, Li Wan and Jia Tanchun can only be assistants.

And this family night banquet was also prepared by her, and she was extremely rich!

Anything that flies in the sky, swims in the water, or runs on the ground is not new.

There are also some strange and rare delicacies that she has brought in.

Originally, she just tried to ask the people below to do it, but Ning Guofu's matchmaking gave her a great surprise...

After collecting all kinds of rare materials, he ordered people to borrow cooks from the three largest restaurants in the capital. After preparing for a whole day, he "was ready" to go out tonight's night banquet...

In the Grand View Building, it is magnificent.

The palace was originally built for the imperial concubine to visit her, so naturally, gold and jade are inseparable.

Under the glory of various glass wind lamps hanging on, the Grand View Tower became more and more glorious as the Land of Heaven.

The waiters in gorgeous brocade clothes, holding exquisite food boxes, shuttled around like swimming fish.

A plate of delicious delicacies, and the fine wines are placed on a large round table.

Jia Yuanchun, who had not pushed away several times, sat in the same position as Jia Mu. Looking at these scenes, he endured it and endured it, and finally said unbearable: "Old lady, is this... too much waste?"

When Jia Mu, who was sitting next to her, heard this, she quickly glanced at Jia Huan, who was sitting under Jia Zheng with a lazy look on his face. Seeing that he had no reaction, she felt relieved and smiled and said, "It's just because you are back that you are like this for the first time at home. On weekdays, who is patient with eating like this is not enough to make trouble.

However, this is all the wishes of your younger brothers and sisters.”

Upon hearing this, Jia Yuanchun smiled and sighed, saying, "It's better than what I eat in the palace."

She sat next to Mrs. Jia, with Aunt Xue sitting next to her, and Jia Baoyu sitting next to her.

Jia Mu took action with Jia Zheng, Jia Zheng took action with Jia Lian, Jia Lian took action with Jia Huan, and then Jia Lan.

Between Jia Lan and Jia Baoyu, there were many sisters of the Jia family.

After hearing Jia Yuanchun's words, some people blinked, while others were indifferent.

Jia Huan smiled and said, "When the Emperor was here, I was tired of eating delicious food, so I returned to the essence. Except for state banquets to entertain foreign ministers, I didn't care much about eating and using it.

As for Your Majesty... Hehe, he is so petty, he is so cliché."

"What nonsense?"

After hearing what Jia Huan said, others were better than others, but Jia Zheng and Jia Yuanchun and his daughter were shocked.

Jia Yuanchun couldn't say anything, but Jia Zheng shouted angrily: "The emperor is wise, thrifty, can you slander it?"

Seeing that Jia Zheng was angry, although he was not the Central Firepower Center, Jia Baoyu, who was attacking Aunt Xue, still hurriedly lowered his head, for fear that he would become a target.

Jia Huan didn't care and said lazyly: "Dad, you said the emperor is wise, I admit it too.

You cannot speak without your conscience.

If you count a few dynasties ahead, you will not be as thrifty as the emperor who loves the people like him.

If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have worked so hard.

But it’s not unfair to say that he is stingy. Listen, my elder sister just said that she can’t eat well in the palace…”

"No, I didn't say I couldn't eat well, but it wasn't so good... Oh, it's not right!"

After hearing Jia Huan's words, Jia Yuanchun almost vomited to death. He hurriedly said, but after saying a while, he felt that it was wrong.

Seeing that she was anxious, Jia Mu was unhappy and said to Jia Huan: "Don't bully your elder sister!"

Jia Huan laughed and didn't care.

Jia Yuanchun finally came back and said with a smile: "I almost coaxed me by my third brother. What I said is clearly two different things. Your Majesty is not stingy, but just thrifty.

Your Majesty is the emperor and has all the worlds. Can't you afford a good meal?

He just used all the money on the people thrifty.

Third brother, don’t let me talk!”

Jia Zheng nodded repeatedly and said, "That's exactly what it means."

Jia Huan waved his hand and said, "You can't say that. To govern the country, it has nothing to do with being diligent and thrifty by nature.

Is Emperor Chongzhen of the previous dynasty thrifty enough?

The dragon robe on his body was almost washed white, and he loved the people as much as his son, but what's the use?

Haven't you hanged on the coal mountain?

Dad, what are you afraid of?

I have said this to His Majesty, look at you, your face turned pale."

"You...have you really said this to Your Majesty?"

Jia Zheng asked in surprise.

Jia Huan smiled and said, "Your Majesty has such an advantage. As long as you tell him the truth, don't think about fooling him. If you say it bluntly, his fire will be fire, but it won't be true fire.

All the civil and military officials in the court praised His Majesty in front of His Majesty, but which one of them is your Majesty?

So, I just say it.

Although you can't be scolded once, you'll be finished after scolding. You won't be able to settle the accounts, and you won't be punished for your words."

Jia Zheng said curiously: "Then tell me, Your Majesty is diligent and thrifty, is there any mistakes in his love for the people? I don't believe it, why do you have any fallacies!"

Everyone else looked over, with curious eyes.

Since ancient times, the crime of a foolish monarch has been extremely extravagant. Why did he come to Jia Huan, the thrifty monarch has become a petty family?

Jia Huan smiled and said, "I'm not saying that being thrifty is wrong. The people are thrifty in the family, but it's just the truth. Because they don't live a life without thrifty, they can't live.

But if the emperor, nobles, and rich families are all thrifty and do not spend money, and they will only cast silver and winter melons, then the silver in the world will not be able to flow, resulting in a shortage of money, that is, the silver is cheap and expensive.

In this way, the people are the most at a disadvantage.

Therefore, those who have money should not be as rich as the landlords, and hide the money without spending it.

Only when the flowers are gone can they benefit the people.

For example, let’s have a night banquet tonight…

Look at this honey bear paw.

If the bear paw was hunted from the Changbai Old Forest in Hei Liao, the honey juice was the queen bee honey from western Gansu.

If rich people like us don’t eat them, then hunters who rely on hunting for a living will not benefit even if they hunt a bear.

Flower farmers in western Ganxi cannot sell even if they raise expensive queen bee honey.

We cannot benefit from it, and the people will not benefit from it.

Now we have spent money, the whole family has had a happy meal and enjoyed the joy, and the people have benefited from it.

Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

"It's really a fallacy!"

Jia Zheng was so fooled that he shook his head, and cursed with a smile: "If you really want to say this, you will lose money all day long, and you will lose money and a mountain of gold and silver!"
