There was heavy snow in the sky, and the town on the north side was in an emergency. But at this time, two people joined together to Beijing.
Wen Yansheng, the governor of Ningbo, and Qi Jingtong, the deputy thousand households in Beiguowei, arrived in Beijing.
They first reported to the courtesy department, and then an came and called the two to see.
Wen Yansheng feels very calm about the capital and his entourage. He is not too big. For him, adding officials to the prince is like a cloud, and it is actually enough for him in this life.
As for Qi Jingtong, his heart was filled with emotion. Not long ago, he was still a minister of sin. In the blink of an eye, he has become a minister of merit. This identity transformation is too fast. Therefore, he was excited by His Majesty's summoning. , But to come to Beijing, he has a bigger purpose.
When the two entered the palace, it was noon. When the emperor Hongzhi was in the Nuan Pavilion, they saw the two servants, and after looking at them up and down, they smiled and said, "The two lovers have worked hard."
He was very curious. In an instant, Ningbo ’s government was suffering from droughts and droughts. However, in the blink of an eye, the Japanese government had eased, and the Japanese government made great contributions. Ningbo ’s government also made great contributions. .
The reason why Emperor Hongzhi did not call Tang Yin and Hu Kaishan is because these two people are related to Fang Jifan. In his view, the people trained by Fang Jifan are very passable. On the contrary, they are Qi Jingtong and Wen Yansheng. Too many things made him want to delve deeper.
How did they collaborate with people like Tang Yin? What are their responsibilities?
Emperor Hongzhi looked at Qi Jingtong and Wen Yansheng. These two people, apart from Wen Yansheng being a bit obese, seemed to have nothing special.
"Come on, give the two Qing's families and give them a seat." Emperor Hongzhi seemed very gentle, and he was completely two faces to his son and minister.
The took Jindun for the two, and Wen Yansheng and Qi Jingtong sat down.
Emperor Hongzhi looked at the sky and said, "It's noon, the two Qing's families haven't used meals yet. It's just time for me to eat." Then, Zhao Xiaojing made a wink.
After a while, the eunuchs took the wine and food. This time the emperor Hongzhi was to entertain two meritorious officials.
Qi Jingtong looked up at Emperor Hongzhi, a bit cautious.
Wen Yansheng had no desire, but just smiled, took the chopsticks, first took a piece of meat, put it in the mouth, only a little pondering for a moment, then took the spoon, scooped a soup, took a sip, but put the spoon down again. .
When Emperor Hongzhi saw that he would not use his chopsticks again, he ate a few bites and padded his stomach before he said, "Why didn't the Wenqing family eat it?"
In his heart awe-inspiring, perhaps, because this imperial meal is too rich today, a scholar like Wen Yansheng, advocate frugality.
This person……
Emperor Hongzhi felt more and more like this. After all, the official uniforms worn by Wen Yansheng were simple at first glance and looked old.
When Wen Yansheng saw the emperor asking himself, he said slowly: "Your Majesty, the ingredients used in this royal meal are all mountain and wild game, which is really rare, but ... but not in the taste of the minister."
"Oh?" Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Qing's house, this is cooked in the imperial dining room, doesn't it suit Qing's taste?"
Wen Yansheng shook his head with emotion.
"It's really bad practice of such great ingredients. This royal meal only pays attention to the color and fragrance. All the patterns are placed on the appearance. It looks good, the color is also colorful, and it is pleasing to the eye. Only this taste, just say this Duck. Duck is famous for its oil. For such a heavy ointment, first use charcoal fire to bake its skin, squeeze out the ointment, and then use some light ingredients to eat, the taste can be imported. But this master chef, actually reversed Follow this way, stew this greasy thing with the porpoise, but it will increase the oiliness, too much ingredients, especially too many sauces, it will make the duck lose the duck flavor, which is also a mistake, it is a violent disaster. . "
With that said, he paused for a moment, then sneaked a look at Emperor Hongzhi and saw that Emperor Hongzhi was not displeased, so he continued.
"If your majesty is processed according to what the minister said, the minister dares to ensure that such a good duck, once released, has no fat skin, but is crispy and fragrant, and its meat is not greasy. If it is accompanied by a green onion, then It ’s even more alive, it ’s delicious, it ’s amazing. "
Qi Jingtong was originally hungry.
It's just that in Yuqian, I dare not be arrogant.
But now, he immediately made a weird expression.
How to say, this way north, together with Wen Yansheng, he was hungry. Every time he came to a post, the staff of the post set up a wine dish, but Wen Yansheng was not satisfied, and the taste was passed. The result was that this wine dish was rubbish.
Qi Jingtong was hungry, but when he listened to it, he felt dull and tasteless. At first, he ate it quite fragrant. So he studied the fine products Wen Yansheng said. Hey, it turned out to be garbage. Appetite.
But this way, when I saw the fish in the river when I was on the boat, Wen Yansheng would have some emotions. What kind of fish is this? How does this fish taste and how will it taste? Qi Jingtong, who listened to salivation, had to hurry all the way ...
Today, I thought I could have a good meal and it turned out ...
He also put down his chopsticks. He hated Wen Yansheng. Wen Yansheng improved his taste for food, and people became picky, so that now he would rather eat rice than food that looks disgusting.
He sighed and said nothing.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi looked down at Yushan, and even felt dull.
Emperor Hongzhi frowned and stared at Wen Yansheng. He couldn't help but ask, "Wen Qing's family is so proficient at food?"
"Where, when the official is in his leisure time, it is easy to think about these." Wen Yansheng busy said: "Your Majesty smiled."
Emperor Hongzhi raised an eyebrow: "This food is, after all, a miscellaneous study, why do you have to devote yourself to it? People can eat whole grains and fill their stomachs."
Wen Yansheng shook his head very seriously, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, you have the courage to speak, and your Majesty's remarks are stunned."
Emperor Hongzhi froze and smiled, but he really wanted to hear it. Wen Yansheng had a reason, so he asked with a smile: "I really want to hear it, Wen Qing's family has high opinions."
Wen Yansheng said: "If you don't know the ingredients, if you don't know how to cook, then this is bad practice. Daming governs the world with filial piety, but also advocates frugality. Your Majesty, if you think about this same ingredient, Some people make it, taste the same as chewing wax, make people eat tasteless, even more people simply discard it, then, is this a waste? But if it is still the original ingredients, cooked out, but it is delicious on earth, military and civilian people, not only Can you take the fruit belly, and eat well, and eat sweet, is this not the best use? "
"The most feared thing in the world is pondering. Just like a craftsman, the same piece of iron and sharp blades made me more effective when killing the enemy, Master Ming. This is not a merit. But if it's perfunctory, it's crude, and in the end, a knife may kill a person, and tens of thousands of knifes will kill tens of millions of people. These tens of millions of people will be killed. If it is defeated, it will not be guaranteed. "
"The same is true for cooking. The minister considers it as a big thing, to study its characteristics, to study how to cook it. This inedible ingredient can be eaten by adding other ingredients. This is People like to chew wax, but people love to eat it. This is the principle of making the best use of the things, otherwise, it is not a waste of extravagance. "
Wen Yansheng said more and more vigorously, and began to gushed.
"Like this big table meal, it looks like there is a lot of extravagance, how much can be eaten into the belly? Then, why is this not a waste? When studying the ingredients, it is the saint 'Wen Liang Gong frugal let' The reason, the so-called frugality and love, is also the same reason. If your majesty gave you the royal meal today and used the method of cooking, your majesty and his friends loved to eat. In fact, this is also a kind of frugality. "
"..." Emperor Hongzhi was a bit stunned ~ EbookFREE.me ~ A pair of eyes looked at Wen Yansheng in surprise.
In the end, there was a chuckle, and you guys are so powerful, you can tell the truth about anything, but ... the truth is quite reasonable.
Emperor Hongzhi was persuaded and asked with a smile: "Ningbo people, how are their livelihoods now?"
Wen Yansheng could n’t help but say seriously:
Ningbo ups and downs, ca n’t eat rice now, so they have to eat big yellow croaker. Many people are tired of yellow croaker, so they eat whale meat instead. The method of cooking fish was promoted in Ningbo, and it barely made everyone have a little interest in big yellow croaker. "
"..." Emperor Hongzhi was shocked again, staring at Wen Yansheng with a suffocated face.
Can't afford rice, do you eat fish?
Wen Yansheng was surprised when he saw Emperor Hongzhi, and he said, "Now, the fishing industry in Ningbo is flourishing. The people mostly live by selling fish, killing fish and building ships. Their lives have been greatly improved. Because of this, the price is higher. There is no one who cares about the rice. Many people use rice to convert taxes to pay taxes. The rice in Ningbo Fufu is already piled up, which is more than three times the previous year. "
three times……
The emperor Hongzhi froze, frowning deeply.
In fact, this is understandable. The price of rice is high. No one eats rice. But what about the rice? Is n’t the government levying taxes? In this case, simply use the official price to offset the tax on the rice that no one eats. .
The official mansion is also happy to do this, so now, in Ningbo, rice has only become the grain that people use to pay taxes. For example, if someone wants to sell yellow croaker, tax will be levied along the way. According to the law of Ming Dynasty, a ten-tax tax system is adopted. But the government does not like to collect fish, and the merchants do not want to take the fish out to pay taxes, so it is good to convert the rice. The official price of rice is high. The government has eliminated the problem of post-processing fish, and the people are also happy to do so.
