In fact, when Yun Chu was not at home, the house was calm and nothing happened.
Since Yunchu returned home, the three children have been crying at the top of their lungs, and the bay-red horse has kicked and bitten the horse the family bought in the past two years out of its stable.
Until it and the black horse were the only ones left in the stable, they quietly ate the concentrate feed that Fatty brought, lying on the haystack to eat.
Yun Chu took a bath for more than an hour, mainly because Yu Xiurong came in to wipe his back. If Yu Xiurong was not here, it would only take a cup of tea at most.
Maybe it was because she was too busy helping her husband take a bath. When Yun Chu left the bathing room, he carried Yu Xiurong out. She was as tired as a puddle of mud.
Going to the Tai Chi Palace for a banquet was not a place where you could have a good meal, so Yun Chu ate a bowl of noodles from his boss to satisfy his stomach, and then the people from the Ministry of Rites came to welcome Yun Chu into the palace for the banquet with a lot of money.
Yunchu always thought that the five-flowered horse was a natural horse. It was only after he saw the five-flowered horse with his own eyes that he realized that it was painted with paint, and it was not painted well.
Naha had a strong objection to her brother taking a bath with her sister-in-law for such a long time as soon as he came back.
After sending his brother out, he quickly ran to Yu Xiurong's room, looked at his sister-in-law lying lazily on the bed and asked, "Is my brother dirty?"
Yu Xiurong was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Think about it, a grown man is outside all year round. I heard that people's ears can be frozen off in Liaodong, so naturally he has no chance to take a bath. Well, he is very dirty and has to be scrubbed with a brush.
…”
"Now that you're back, why not stay at home and go to the palace to do something? It's not too tiring."
Yu Xiurong said lazily: "What do you, a child, know? Get out of here, I'm very tired."
Naha walked out and said, "You know how to lie to me..." After saying that, she closed the door firmly.
Yu Xiurong was in a very good mood, and naturally she would not be as experienced as Naha. Recalling the shameful scene in the bathtub, she couldn't help but lick her red lips. She felt that the time was still too short. Her husband was not happy, and she was not happy either.
Yun Chu was a little disappointed when he didn't see Di Renjie at the gate of the palace. However, he heard from Wen Wen that Di Renjie was on business at Fengyukou in Zhongnan Mountain, so he sighed and followed Wen Wen into the palace.
Just like in the previous dynasty, only officials of the fifth rank and above were eligible to enter the main hall to have banquets, while officials below the fifth rank could only continue to sit in the open air.
It's different today. There are many officials above the fifth rank, but some fifth-rank officials can't get in, such as Guo Daifeng.
Seeing that Guo Dai's cover was red and about to explode, Yunchu told the officials of the Ministry of Rites that he was not going in and would sit at a table with Wen Wen outside to avoid smelling the farts of the generals.
Guo Daifeng was very puzzled by Yun Chu's offer of his seat. The higher the position at this time, the higher the status.
Despite Yun Chu's repeated humility, Guo Daifeng still went in. He really wanted to know what kind of reward the emperor could give him today.
Although August 15th has passed long ago, the moon comes out very early tonight, is big enough, and is round enough. It contrasts well with the dense lanterns and torches in the Tai Chi Palace. It is a good day to drink and sing to your heart's content.
…
Yun Chu, Wen Wen didn't like to drink the oil tea provided by the royal family, so he lit a small stove, boiled pots of tea, and drank some tea before the banquet started.
Pei Xingjian arrived relatively late. When he saw Yun Chu at the entrance of the hall, he asked strangely: "Why are you outside?"
Yun Chu smiled and said: "Today is a grand gathering of military generals. It is an elegant thing for me, a civil servant, to sit outside and admire the moon."
Pei Xingjian frowned and said, "Let's go in. Tonight there will be not only the dance of King Gozang and the princess, but also the hymn of King Baekje and the praise of the people of Silla. They are all very good pieces. Why don't you go in and have a look?"
"
Yun Chu said: "As a civil servant, I have made some achievements in Liaodong. It's hard to go in to recharge. You'd better go in quickly to avoid being replaced by others."
"No one can take the credit for me, but you should be more careful. Why did Naha get herself into trouble? Protect that little girl. It would be a pity if something happened."
Yun Chu drank tea and said with a smile: "If something happens to Naha, Chang'an City will become a river of blood..."
Pei Xingjian was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Yunchu's eyes were clear and full of danger signals, he cupped his hands and said, "I know, I hope you can let others know too."
Yun Chu smiled calmly and said, "They will know."
After Pei Xingjian took a deep look at Yun Chu, he followed the officials from the Ministry of Rites into the main hall.
Wen Wen drank hot tea and said: "How are you going to deal with it?"
"We'll see, if they are honest, I don't mind coexisting peacefully. If they really think I'm easy to bully, I don't mind eradicating them."
"The situation is actually very clear. His Majesty has been belittling their faction recently. Most of the incidents in Dali Temple and Baiqisi are related to them. This is already a sign that a storm is coming.
I hope they don’t use their intention to fight back against you.”
Yun Chu waved his hands and said: "After a big battle, you lost half a kilogram of meat on your butt, which is why you are in this good situation now. Let's enjoy tonight. After all, this is what we deserve."
Wen Wen leaned on a soft cushion and nodded: "That's right. My wife cried so hard when she looked at my wounds today."
Yun Chu smiled and said: "My wife also counts the wounds on my body, and even those who cry become weak."
Wen Wen held the tea cup and saluted the moon and said: "Finally I have seen what the battlefield is like. I will not go to the battlefield next time."
Yun Chu said: "If possible, I don't want to go to the battlefield. There is no need for good people to bite each other like wild beasts."
The big shots come later.
Li Ji and Su Dingfang saw Yun Chu sitting outside the hall, frowning and sighing, then entered the hall without saying anything.
When Changsun Wuji arrived, he had already reached the entrance of the palace, then turned back, strolled in front of Dao Yunchu and said, "Can I be considered a traitor?"
Yun Chu stood up and saluted: "Why did Mr. Zhao say this?"
Changsun Wuji snorted and left.
Changsun Huan, the young minister of Honglu Temple who was serving beside Changsun Wuji, said coldly: "My sister uses her dignity as a Buddhist daughter to seduce the prince. Doesn't the county magistrate know?"
…
Yun Chu did not use his military expedition as an excuse and directly said to Changsun Huan: "My sister-in-law is lively and innocent by nature. If she thinks that Wu Zheng is a villain who deserves to be killed, then Yun must also think so.
Brother Zhangsun, just keep this incident on Yun’s head.”
Changsun Huan looked at Yun Chu and cheered: "Okay, now that the county has acknowledged it, when my eldest son targets you, the Yun family, don't think that this is bullying the small. Not to mention that the eldest son doesn't speak up.
reason."
Yun Chu looked at Changsun Huan with a strange look and said: "I really like your personality. When I was not at home, you did not initiate anything against the Yun family. I accepted this favor.
Therefore, when you are unlucky, I will not do anything to make things worse."
Changsun Huan laughed and said, "Do you have this qualification?"
Yun Chu said with a smile: "Don't be arrogant. Since ancient times, many princes, princes, generals and ministers have died because of arrogance."
"Do you think the Changsun family will collapse?"
Yun Chu shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it's better to be careful."
Chang Sun Huan looked into Yun Chu's eyes and smiled: "Do you really think your martial arts is the best in the world?"
Yun Chu smiled and said: "Fortunately, I haven't met any opponent so far."
Changsun Huan blinked and said, "Then let me see it clearly!"
After saying that, he walked into the hall with his hands behind his back.
Wen Wen said on the side: "He may want to find a martial arts master to humiliate you."
Yun Chu said puzzledly: "The way of martial arts is about the difference between strong and weak. If you can't beat it, you can't beat it. This has something to do with everyone's understanding, diligence, and wealth. There are so many people who can't beat others.
, can’t you even figure it out?”
Wen Wenwen breathed a sigh of relief and said: "So, if you can't beat me, you will admit defeat without hurting your mind, right?"
Yun Chu shook his head and said: "Absolutely not. If you think about it, you will understand that I cannot defeat all the men in the world."
Wen Wen laughed and said, "It's fine if you think about it this way."
While he was talking, countless palace maids lined up and walked out from both sides of Taiji Palace, holding countless exquisite dials in their hands.
One plate is made up of fruits, pears and peaches, and the other plate is a meat plate, which is made up of various meats. Whether it is a fruit plate or a meat plate, at least on the plate,
This made Yun Chu feel uncomfortable.
The pears were not cut into fish-scale-like pieces, the melons were not withered and carved into flower baskets, and even the handles of some pears were not removed. If you want to eat the pears, you can only pick them up and gnaw them whole.
What we are having today should be a state banquet.
Even at a state banquet, there is only one piece of pork belly on the table, which is pork boiled in white water. If you want to eat it, you need to cut it with a knife and sprinkle it with salt, or dip it in dark meat sauce and eat it.
A chicken is also boiled in plain water and eaten in the same way as gizzard meat.
A piece of fish was deep-fried and then steamed in a pan. Two heads of garlic were placed next to it, which seemed to be eaten with the fish.
Then there is a roasted lamb leg, which is full of spices, but it smells good, but the presentation is terrible.
"The food in the Grand Dining Hall is good and delicious. Don't these people know how to go to the Grand Dining Hall to learn from it and improve the food in the palace?"
Seeing that Yunchu was beginning to dislike it, Wen Wenwen whispered: "There is no way, this is etiquette. Eating such a meal is etiquette and high-end. Don't say you haven't eaten when you came.
The food here is not that good, but the wine is good."
After speaking, he poured Yunchu a glass of wine.
After drinking it, Yun Chu nodded and said, "It's well-deserved."
Wen Wenhe chuckled and said: "This is the fine wine."
Because everyone outside the palace saw the scene where Changsun Wuji came to look for trouble just now, so they naturally isolated Yun Chu and Wen Wen from the crowd, talking to themselves in low voices, but even Yun Chu
