I was the richest man in Da Song

Chapter 36 Entering the Palace
Hot pot restaurants set off a food storm in Kaifeng, especially now that it is late autumn and the business of hot pot restaurants is even hotter after the weather turns cold.

Everyone was so busy that they couldn't keep their feet on the ground. The people in the free school were smart people selected by Min Weng, and there was nothing wrong with dealing with these diners. The women in Solfang were in charge of cleaning and preparing the ingredients in the back kitchen.

He Shao did not choose to continue to expand. Since the people in the restaurant business have reconciled, there is no need to force others to death. Besides, the hot pot restaurant has already occupied a pivotal position in the hearts of officials and wealthy households in Kaifeng City. If you want to expand, you have to lower the price. .

"Master, master..." He Si said out of breath all the way running.

"Is something wrong?"

"Dou En came to the store today, and asked to deliver a meal to the palace, saying it was urgent."

"Can't you just go?"

The harem will eat every now and then, so it's not a big deal.

"Dou knows it for you"

After taking the note and unfolding it, there was not a single word on it, so He Shao didn't dare to be careless.

"You go back to the store now. Many of the dishes in the cellar are already withered. Pick them out. Check all the ingredients to make sure there is no mistake. I'll be there soon."

"Master, isn't this just a blank piece of paper?" He Si didn't know why He Shao was so nervous.

"What I'm afraid of is this blank paper. This is very likely to be the book of life and death for the king of hell."

He Shao changed into clean clothes, and when he arrived at the hot pot restaurant, Dou En's face was full of joy, and he took the initiative to come up when he was still far away.

Now Dou En naturally dare not underestimate He Shao, He Shao has grown into a behemoth comparable to Fan Lou and Wan Chun Lou in just a few months, which makes Dou En feel a little like in a dream.

"Dou Douzhi, no, I should call you Daduzhi"

"It's not all thanks to you"

Every month, one floor of the hot pot restaurant, Li He Shao, was secretly handed over to Dou En. With this large amount of money, Dou En was like a fish in water in the palace.

In the past, when people in the Palace of the Sun ordered food, they would randomly find someone from the shop to teach the nobles how to eat.

"He Langjun, this time His Majesty is hosting a banquet for a few political counselors from the Political Affairs Hall. If His Majesty has called by name and wants to see you, don't be careless," Dou En said in a low voice.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on"

The hotpot restaurant’s food is specially made by craftsmen in the porcelain kiln. The chopsticks are a little longer to hold the dishes, and the bowls used are smaller and more delicate. The dipping sauce is unique.

Ji Zai re-examined them worriedly before putting them in the lunch box and entering the palace with Dou En. The Imperial Road is the central axis of Kaifeng City leading directly to the Suzaku Gate of the Imperial Palace.

There is a huge square outside the Suzaku Gate, and a road is specially fenced in the center with a vermilion branch fence. This is the imperial road that the emperor walks when he is on tour. Even in normal times, no one is allowed to step on the imperial road.

Dou En took He Shao into the palace through a side gate. The palace of the Song Dynasty was not very large in succession to the Liang and Tang Dynasties.

The main hall is the Daqing Hall, and the south of the Daqing Hall is the Zhengshi Hall, separated by a gate tower.

The Chuigong Hall on the west side of the Daqing Hall is the place where the emperor listened to politics on weekdays. The banquet hall in the palace is called the Shengping Tower.

A six-story wooden building is the tallest building in the imperial palace. There is a lake built by digging a spring beside the building. An embankment is built in the lake to connect the pavilion, and a beam is erected on the embankment to enter the lake. Yousheng is like a design made in heaven.

"Don't look left and right, it's not good to be seen"

Seeing that He Shao had been admiring the scenery of the royal garden, Dou En hastily reminded him that seeing or hearing things that should not be seen or heard in the imperial palace will lead to great disasters.

"It's okay, if you want to see it, just look at it boldly"

When Dou En heard this voice, he hurriedly bowed down, and He Shao naturally had to follow. In this era when the imperial power controls everyone's life and death, if the knee is too hard, it will be too soft.

"I have seen His Majesty, I have seen Liu Xiuyi!"

"get up"

He Shao quietly raised his head and glanced at the real dragon emperor of the Great Song Dynasty. He was taller than him, with two short beards. He was just 37 years old, honest and vigorous. The majesty of the refusal, but I didn't expect Zhenzong Zhao Heng to be extremely gentle.

After the emperors of other dynasties ascended the throne, their first and last names became taboo.

Even Guanyin Bodhisattva took off the word Shi to avoid Li Shiming's taboo and became Guanyin Bodhisattva. After Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, pigs were not allowed in the world for a period of time. Fortunately, there was no one with the surname Gu as the emperor, otherwise the people in the world would not know that they would be hungry. How many people died.

However, the emperors of the Song Dynasty were exemplary emperors in terms of avoiding taboo names. When they ascended the throne, if there were commonly used characters in their names, they would not choose to let the world avoid taboos, but chose some relatively uncommon characters to change their names for the convenience of the world.

Taizong's original name was Zhao Guangyi, and his name was changed to Zhao Jiong. Zhenzong's original name was Zhao Dechang, and his name was changed to Zhao Heng. charm.

The eunuch behind Zhao Heng took a few people and sent the food box brought by He Shaodouen to the Shengping Building. After finishing his errands, Douen left on his own.

Besides Zhao Heng, what makes He Shao more curious is of course this legendary Liu Xiuyi.

As a second marriage to the emperor and finally became a queen, I am afraid that only Erzhu Ying'e who married three emperors in a row in the Northern Wei Dynasty can compare.

As an orphan in Shu, Liu E had no support in the palace. With her own efforts, she not only ascended to the throne of queen, but also almost became emperor. Her scheming and means can be seen.

Liu E's appearance is naturally impeccable. The girl she met by chance at Xiangguo Temple and Suoerfang Yunniang may be comparable in beauty, but they definitely do not have such a graceful temperament.

"You are He Shao?"

Zhao Heng asked He Shao to raise his head.

"The name of the grass is exactly"

"The sky and the earth are scorching hot, and the fans are swaying gently. Knocking on the ice and snow, sinking plums and floating melons, how can a building be a hundred feet tall?
The summer pavilion needs to be swept quietly, and the shade of the trees is thick with green waves and ponds.Liushuixi bridge, the right army watching geese, it is better to have a happy birthday! "

The emperors of the Song Dynasty all had high literary accomplishments. Zhenzong was good at poetry, Huizong was good at calligraphy, Shenzong was good at painting, and Renzong was good at sex.

Zhenzong wrote "Li Xue Pian" and "Yu Zhi Ji" [-] articles. The book has its own golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu, which has been handed down for thousands of years.

"I heard from Li Xiang that this was written by you? It's late autumn now, is there any next time?" Zhao Heng asked.

He Shao thought for a moment
"The sycamore leaves are withering, the chrysanthemums are blooming, and the solar terms are high. The golden wind is rustling, and the cold geese are rushing to weave.

Yellow flowers are everywhere with decaying grass, and the atmosphere of red leaves is floating all over the river.The autumn scenery is rustling, the chrysanthemums are appreciated and the pottery is hidden, and the birthday is happy."

"Well received, within seconds, no wonder Li Xiang said that you are a young phoenix from my Great Song Dynasty. He rarely praises a young man like this." Zhao Heng laughed.

"It's just that Mr. praises and loves students"

"With such a talent, why not become an official in the court?" Zhao Heng asked.

Whether it is the emperor or the prime minister, even as shrewd as Kou Zhun, he also upholds this concept, that is, if he can write good poems, he can be a good official.

He Shao couldn't understand the necessary connection between writing poems and becoming an official. Su Dongpo was relegated to Lingnan to eat lychees, and Xin Qiji, the dragon in poetry, was relegated to a hermit mountain residence.

　I hope everyone will recommend and collect
