Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 547

A plate of fennel beans, a plate of braised pork head meat, a plate of braised duck wings, and a plate of braised beef. Among them, the plate of braised beef attracted everyone's attention.

Friends who have watched Water Margin are very familiar with such a scene, that is, Liangshan heroes must order beef every time they go to a restaurant.According to the statistics of Water Margin lovers, there are as many as 48 scenes of eating beef in the whole novel!And the most famous scene is Wu Song's conversation with Xiao Er when he is going to pass Jingyanggang.

It's just that everyone was misled by the novel.

We have been an agricultural society since ancient times. In such a social atmosphere, cattle are the most important working livestock and a means of transportation. They are important property and labor valued by the whole society, and they have been banned from slaughtering and eating meat by successive dynasties.

Among them, the law of the Han Dynasty was the first to believe that killing cattle was equivalent to killing people and could be directly sentenced to death. It is also recorded in "Huainanzi": "The king's law prohibits the killing of cattle, and those who violate the prohibition will be punished."

In the Tang Dynasty, although the rule of killing cattle for life was abolished, if there is any act of killing cattle, they will still be sentenced to one and a half years in prison, or they will be captured and do hard labor.

Some novels say that a certain noble’s family often has cattle jumping off the cliff, so you can eat beef beautifully. Don’t dream, the censor will directly impeach you to death. You are not a fool. Once or twice is fine, but if If there are too many, Li Shimin will not tolerate you. After all, as a nobleman, you always break the established rules, then you are looking for death.

Of course, since the killing of cattle was prohibited in ancient times, eating beef is also strictly prohibited by the government.

This makes the price of beef far higher than the price of other meats.In order to seek huge profits, many people secretly kill cattle and sell meat, and this situation has been repeatedly prohibited.

So beef is also available,

In addition to these, there was a bottle of good wine. When this bottle of good wine appeared, there were exclamations on the wine table.

"Good guy Jiannanchun..." Ma Shancai, who is good at drinking, immediately shouted in surprise: "What's going on today, Brother Wen, is he planning to have a bad day in the future?"

"Haha!" Wen Yanbo opened Jian Nanchun with a smile, and then poured a glass of wine for Ma Shancai, Yu Jing, and Liu Yi one by one: "I'm not ready for life, after all, Dunhuafang is my home, and I will die when I prepare." It’s here, so I won’t let my days pass.”

"Then what are you doing today?" Liu Yi greedily smelled the aroma of the wine in the glass.

"Drink. There is still a bottle." Wen Yanbo said with a smile, and when he finished speaking, Wen Yanbo drank the Jiannanchun in his cup, and then showed an expression of enjoyment: "This is Jiannanchun!"

"Drink, drink..." After seeing Wen Yanbo drink first, Ma Shancai quickly said: "Drink quickly, there should be no problem with drinking quickly, I see, today is the day when Brother Wen is bleeding, although I know there is a hole in the back, But I can't handle that much anymore."

After finishing speaking, Ma Shancai drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and after finishing drinking, he heard Ma Shancai shout: "Good wine.!"

After Ma Shancai drank it, Yu Jing and Liu Yi also drank the wine in the cup one after another. At this moment, Ma Shancai picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, saying: "Brother Wen should tell you the reason for being courteous this time." Bar."

"Hehe...!" Wen Yanbo smiled and said, "Of course, but this is not a courtesy, but a reward in advance, because I know that we can definitely find a way to help His Highness."

"Oh, it's something His Highness told you?" Yu Jing on the side immediately said: "Then let's talk about it and solve it as soon as possible. It's time for us to repay Your Highness."

"That's right. During this time in Dunhuafang, His Highness gave us the best. I like it here, so as long as it is His Highness's business, I will do my best."

"Me too."

"And I!"

The other two also nodded together, and Wen Yanbo chuckled: "I know, I knew it a long time ago. So I'm going to celebrate in advance. Well, let's not talk about other useless things, now I will talk about it, this time, Your Highness What kind of a task was given to us.

In fact, this task is very simple, Your Highness asked us to give him a plan, this plan is how to punish Chai Lingwu! "

"Chai Lingwu!" Yu Jing said calmly, "Princess Baling's son-in-law, and also the second son of Duke Chai and Princess Pingyang?"

"That's right!" Wen Yanbo nodded with a smile, and then ate a fennel bean: "This guy instructed others to plan the kidnapping of Princess Jinyang, and then wanted His Royal Highness Qi to take the blame.

This is blatantly trying to play tricks on our Dunhuafang. He doesn't want our Dunhuafang to live comfortably. "

"It's very possible. Chai Lingwu is the direct descendant of the King of Wei. Our Royal Highness has already supported the King of Jin. It is reasonable for this guy to attack us, but he can even kidnap Princess Jinyang. He is really crazy. It's gone." Ma Shan drank a glass of wine.

"Your Majesty's nephew, His Majesty's son-in-law, Chai Lingwu, has the arrogance to punish him. It's a bit difficult." Yu Jing laughed.

"It's not difficult to ask us what to do." Liu Yi ate the pork head in one gulp and said, "Let me raise an idea first, although Chai Lingwu has a holy favor, but now the Holy One has been preparing for the conquest of Goguryeo.

Therefore, if you want to break through Chai Wu's sacred favor, the best way is to start with the matter of the government soldiers. Even if we find out other things, I think His Majesty will not punish Chai Lingwu too much. No deterrent effect. "

"That's a good idea! Old Liu is still powerful. Now His Majesty is all about conquering Goguryeo. Now if someone wants to destroy the welfare of the government soldiers, then I think His Majesty will punish that person even if he is favored again." Wen Yanbo nodded with a smile.

"Then use this idea, let's fight firewood and order martial arts..." Ma Shancai chuckled.

"Okay, let's use this idea." Wen Yanbo raised his wine glass: "Your Highness said, we plan to go out first, and we will be responsible together after we go out. If Your Highness wants money or someone to give, you must let Chai Lingwu know. Dunhuafang If he wants to deal with our Dunhuafang, he must have the consciousness of being eaten by our Dunhuafang."

In this way, in a small gathering, Wenyanbo, Yu Jing, Liu Yi, and Ma Shancai came up with an idea, and then, after the banquet, Wenyanbo began to draw up a plan.

In the afternoon of the same day, a detailed plan to pit Chai Lingwu appeared in Quan Zhixi's hands. After carefully reading the whole plan, Quan Zhixi just smiled and said seven words: "The son-in-law Chai is in trouble!"

Li You is also deeply impressed by this plan. Li Zhi and Li Mingda are also in Li You's study at this time. Li You just taught Li Zhi a lesson, which really makes Li You worry. guy.

Li Zhi shrank his head from being scolded, and stood aside.

At this time, Li You handed the plan to Li Zhidao: "You are responsible for following up on this matter, and you must do it yourself for the support they want. During this period of time, don't always go to the palace. Give it to me." Get this done, you know?"

"I know, I will definitely do it well." Li Zhi quickly agreed.

On the other hand, Li Mingda showed a slight dissatisfaction, because Li Mingda wanted to deal with Chai Lingwu with his own hands. After all, Chai Ling was kidnapped by someone, which made Li Mingda full of hatred for Chai Lingwu.

"Fifth Brother. Let me assist Ninth Brother. I can help Ninth Brother do things better." Li Mingda raised his hand and looked at Li You and said fawningly.

"Yes, yes." Li Zhi on the side quickly agreed: "Fifth Brother, ask Sizi to help me, so that I will be more confident."

Thinking of Li Zhi's cowardly character, Li You was also helpless. This kind of character is innate, and if you want to change it, it will definitely not happen overnight. After thinking about it, Li You still nodded when he saw Li Zhi's pleading appearance : "Yes, but the child is the leader, the son can only assist, and the son must not pass the child."

"I know, I know!" Li Mingda and Li Zhi smiled together.

It's just that Li You knew very well that this guy Li Mingda would definitely eat Li Zhi to death, but Li You couldn't help it, Li Zhi really couldn't do it right now.

Li Mingda and Li Zhi left Li You's study together.

Seeing the backs of the two leaving, Quan Zhixi laughed: "Are you going to train a childish slave?"

"Do I still have a choice? Li Tai is aggressive. If we don't launch a spokesperson of our own, our Dunhuafang will be swallowed by Li Tai in one go. Uncle is optimistic about Zhinu and is willing to help Zhinu. We can only hone Chinu, I hope Chinu can be stronger."

"Haven't you thought about replacing it?" Quan Zhixi asked.

"I would like to, but I have no chance. I am a bastard, and my strength is not enough. This is not a time of war. I can use war to support war and expand my strength.

Now is an era of peace, and there are many generals in the Tang Dynasty. I want to replace them, but what strength do I have to replace them? Zhenguan is prosperous, and the hearts of the people are in Tang. If I have a little change, unless I have an army of one million, otherwise I have no chance of winning. "

Li You is very clear-headed, he is very clear about his position, he will not underestimate the power of the ancients because he thinks that he has traveled from the modern era, the hearts of the people in the Tang Dynasty are now, and almost all the generals are there, and there are hundreds of soldiers. Wan, Li Shimin is so ruthless, brother, younger brother, father, let them all go, is it really like in other stories, a future man invents a few things and becomes Li Shimin's son-in-law, Li Shimin will love him very much, reluctant kill.

Don't be kidding, how can someone who can kill even his own brother and younger brother not kill you because you are his son-in-law and you are a little talented?
As long as your behavior makes Li Shimin feel threatened, and Li Shimin feels that you are a threat to his son, no matter how great a hero you are, Li Shimin will kill you without hesitation. The throne is more important than anything else, and in Li Shimin's heart The only people he cherished were his sons-in-law, the others could be given up.
