New Year’s Eve Dinner (please read)

"Cricket fight?"

Wang Zhong suddenly smiled, "Xu Tongzheng, I want to talk about it. In the early days, when I was in my teens, I caught crickets everywhere. At that time, a top-quality cricket could be exchanged for five kilograms of fine grain. One year, I caught two in a row and ten kilograms of noodles. The hand-rolled noodles my mother made for me were so fragrant... Now, I have been named the marquis, and every meal is full of white rice noodles, but I can't taste it."

Xu Jingchang smiled, "It's not that the face is not fragrant, but that the heart is too big. As the saying goes, the snake swallows the elephant. If Marquis Jing'an can calm down, he might have a broad future in the future."

Xu Jingchang said, he had already opened the cricket jar, picked up a grass stick, and teased the cricket.

Wang Zhong was stunned for a moment and sighed, "You are right, but not right. Who doesn't want to live a better life, eat and wear all the best, wear and have rich clothes and food? How many people in the court can really be honest and self-reliant and not take any money? Just say that these people who are reading the books of sages always say they are for the country and the people, but how much are they greedy in private? Compared with them, I am just a small witch and not worth mentioning."

Xu Jingchang did not refute, but smiled and said, "Marty Jing'an, a gentleman loves money and gets it well. After all, it is really unreasonable to openly corrupt the national law. If you can do some business, it will be good to make a fortune."

Wang Zhong paused and smiled helplessly, "It's easy to say, but I am a rude man, I can't do anything, and I'm still rich? Just don't pay for it."

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "That's fine. I have also run a school and trained a lot of talents. It's been several months now. When I go out, I'll be ready to show my strength. Is Jing'an Hou interested in participating?"

Wang Zhong's eyes rolled and suddenly smiled, "I'm not very good at using my brain, and I'm reckless and impulsive. I have to think about it carefully and figure out the severity of the interests... Xu Tongzheng wouldn't blame him, right?"

Xu Jingchang said: "How could you make a joke? Don't make a joke about real money and wealth... We officials should learn to think twice."

The six ministers and important officials of the court all gritted their teeth, watching them eat and drink, and they had the urge to strangle them to death.

Especially Wang Zhong, who also took the rock candy elbow that he had been stewed for an hour and a half, ran to Xia Yuanji, ate it and chewed it, and ate it with great flavor.

He turned the jail into the Ming Dynasty on his tongue.

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm young and straight-hearted. Sometimes I'm unrestrained. I also ask the Marquis of Jing'an to take care of him."

Too much bullying!

After half an hour of yelling, the prison finally made a favor and sent a jar in it. After opening it, it was filled with pickled radishes. I don’t know how long it took, but there was a layer of rotten things floating on it, emitting the smell of smelly feet that had not been washed for twenty years.

"Yes, the so-called thinking about danger means to see clearly where the danger is. Although high officials and generous salaries are prominent, they are not as cold as high places. They are ambushed on all sides and cannot see the danger clearly. If you step in, you will lose your life. Therefore, the first step to becoming an official is to think about danger."

This taste is even more uncomfortable than Lingchi.

"Yes, it means thinking about danger, retreat, change." Xu Jingchang said with a smile.

Since he learned about Xu Jingchang's craftsmanship, he has been impressed and ate every meal cleanly, not even leaving a little soup for those people.

When we die, there is still a good meal. With our status, we do not understand the conviction and just keep it in lockdown. If we don’t give you food or drink, it’s better to kill us with one knife.

Then Xu Jingchang was short of anything at hand.

The eyes of these people were red, "Mr. Jing'an, don't think you are a general, but you don't have armor and weapons, and you are just one person. There are so many of us, and now we can only kill you. Let's kill you two!"

Afraid that he caught a cold, he brought a leopard skin mattress that Zhu Di had hunted over.

Xu Jingchang was in prison and could not be said to be sad. He could only say that he could not go out, but also that he was almost the same as his family!

"Shangshu Jian, Shangshu Xia, you can't bully children. For the New Year, everything is easy to discuss... Otherwise, I treat you to everyone and give you the New Year's Eve dinner, and I personally take care of it, how about it?"

Pine nuts, dried fruits, stove sugar, folk desserts from the palace, roast chicken, roast duck, pork head meat... are filled with the table.

Xu Jingchang is really good at cooking, frying, cooking and frying, and the knife and spoon are ringing.

"I'm afraid! But the law doesn't blame the public. When we get to this point, we don't care about anything. Your Majesty can't kill all the six ministries and nine ministers. Xu Tongzheng, you're forcing us!"

Wang Zhong smiled quickly, "Xu Tong is politician. To be honest, your Xu family is the leader of the generals. We are just a family of thousands of families. We are lucky enough to follow His Majesty to have today. How can we compare to the founding heroes who fought for decades and conquered the Ming Dynasty. From Xu Tongzheng, I can see the power of your family, and I am convinced!"

Hearing this, the faces of several people were slightly better.

This made Xia Yuanji so angry, but there was nothing he could do.

The ministers were furious and yelled with their necks.

The best silk quilt fell asleep, the water was constantly burning, and the stove was burning. Lu'an tea was sent to the palace, and Queen Xu was reluctant to let her nephew be wronged.

He cooked in it, and Wang Zhong helped him. After the preparation, the two of them ate together. Although Wang Zhong was a marquis, he was unknown before the Jingnan Dynasty and had never enjoyed anything.

Wang Zhong's eyes lit up and he hurriedly leaned over and said, "Xu Tongzheng, can you speak carefully?"

It's so hateful!

After all, he had no care of the queen and aunt, nor did he have food to send to the emperor... Not only did he not have it, but the court officials also did not.

That's right, although Xu Jingchang finally impeached him and sent him to the heavenly prison, the person who was really bad was Xia Yuanji, who even pulled His Highness, which clearly regarded himself as that chicken!

The big guy could only chew the black hard cakes, drink the vegetable soup without a drop of oil, and look at Xu Jingchang, and long saliva flowed out.

Wang Zhong hesitated for a while, suddenly turned around and looked at Xia Yuanji's room, unable to help but gritted his teeth.

Those Shangshu, whose faces had just relaxed, were sweating at this moment.

Then Jian Yi, Xia Yuanji, Song Li, Liu Yan, and everyone looked at each other and came towards Xu Jingchang's room together.

I have to say that when a person is in prison, his IQ and EQ are improving rapidly.

That's not all kinds of fresh fruits, vegetables, chicken, fish, duck and meat are all delivered in one go.

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "This is thinking about danger. The second step is to think about retreating. If you see the danger clearly, you must avoid danger and seek profit and avoid harm. It is a normal human nature. You must retreat to a place where others cannot see you, accumulate energy, observe the situation, reflect on yourself, and think clearly inside and out."

Zhu Zhanji is also very conscientious. After sending a fish, he brought Hai Dongqing over all day long.

Not long ago, Wang Zhong wanted to join Xia Yuanji's mother and scolded her in class... Now she has learned to flatter her.

At this moment, a yellow figure suddenly appeared on the wall of the prison, making excitement barking.

Wang Zhong subconsciously swallowed and spitted, "Aren't you afraid of the wrath of Your Majesty's thunder?"

Xu Jingchang's face also changed, it was so bad that it was hard to say what an angry courtier could do... a hero would not suffer any loss in front of him.

Wang Zhong nodded vigorously, "This is even more correct. When I go out, I will reflect behind closed doors and think clearly."

A soldier can be killed, but not humiliated!

"What are you doing?"

Seeing this scene, the ministers completely broke their defense.

Xu Jingchang continued: "The third step is to think about change. If the original road is not clear, you have to choose a new path, open up new fields, and expand new space. On that road we can't run away from others, and we don't have to hold on. You can change the track. If you can't beat it, you won't be embarrassed. After all, this capital gathers smart people from the entire Ming Dynasty, and it's natural to defeat them. It's reasonable to be fooled by others as monkeys. Is that right?"

While speaking, the ministers and ministers actually picked up benches and toilets, and rushed forward to smash Xu Jingchang.

Xu Jingchang was very familiar with him, so he quickly separated everyone and rushed from his room to the yard.

Seeing that it was New Year's Eve, the court officials could no longer bear it.

But Gu Pu, the assistant minister behind, suddenly said angrily: "No, just that Haidongqing can bring how much food? There are so many of us, if we want to eat, eat together, or we will be killed by the death of fish and burn together!"

"Think twice?"

It's bad, the crowd is too excited, it's really hard to deal with.

They knew that going to jail is not the hardest thing, the most terrible thing is that going to jail is like vacation, and living in jail is like a year.

Wang Zhong was still resting with his belly holding his stomach and thinking about what to eat for the New Year’s Eve dinner. Suddenly, he felt a strong murderous aura. He turned over and stood up, rushed to Xu Jingchang’s room in three or two steps, and glared at the ministers.

"Xu Tongzheng, let's not talk about business matters, Wang Zhong, will come to ask more questions in the future. If you encounter any problems, please ask Xu Tongzheng for advice."

Wang Zhong thought for a while and nodded, "Yes, I just couldn't see the danger clearly, so I went to the Heavenly Prison. Fortunately, Your Majesty was kind and kind, otherwise he would have hit me and placed it in the Hongwu Dynasty, and the head would probably have fallen to the ground."

Dahuang carried two bags of food, rushed down from the wall, ran directly to Xu Jingchang, and rubbed his head against Xu Jingchang's thigh.

"What a dog! You saved my life!"

Xu Jingchang's tears came down, so he quickly took the food and said to the Great Wong: "Thank you for your hard work. I'll take a few more trips and bring in many things for me."

Then Xu Jingchang turned his head and looked at everyone and said loudly: "Stop yelling, you have a share! You can't do it if you have a share!"
