.,

Mao Jizhi is here.

His appearance caused a sensation.

Because many gentry and scholars in the vicinity have come.

There are hundreds of people.

These people are almost the real "people" in Changping County. They control all closely related industries in Changping County, and can even affect the county magistrate's decision-making.

Knowing that His Majesty hosted a banquet, they immediately felt proud.

Obviously, this is a grand event for them.

People are looking forward to it.

We are all waiting for Mr. Mao Ji.

And when Mao Ji got off the carriage, he looked up and looked at the dark man.

There are officials appointed by the imperial court, there are gentry, and there are scholars with Lunjin Confucianism.

He smiled, and immediately, it elicited an enthusiastic response.

"Mr. Mao Ji, you are polite."

"Mr. Mao, please."

Under Yang Ping's guidance, Mao Ji paced slowly, and when he was outside the walk, eunuchs were already waiting.

The eunuch said: "Your Majesty has an order to invite all officials and local gentry to the table."

So, everyone filed in.

The entire back office has been rebuilt and decorated, and many mansions have been directly connected.

Emperor Hongzhi sat tall.

But the sudden influx of hundreds of people still made the place look aggrieved. It was a banquet, but there were no table tables, so everyone had to sit on the floor, crowded with people.

Don't you invite me to dinner?

What about wine and food?

There are no tables?

What do you eat?

Everyone, look at me, and I look at you.

There is a plan in front of Emperor Hongzhi.

He smiled and looked around. Fang Jifan and Xiao Jing stood beside him, looking at all the people who came in with a smile.

Fang Jifan was still a little confused about His Majesty's thoughts.

But it doesn't matter.

He's happy with whatever happens next.

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes fell on Mao Ji.

He has an impression of Mao Ji.

When Mao Ji was in the Hanlin Academy, he had the experience of accompanying a driver.

Emperor Hongzhi was quick, and his eyes fell on the other gentry.

He saw a familiar person.

Zhao Yi!

Zhao Yi obviously also noticed something.

He was smiling when he came in, to be given a banquet by the emperor was enough to make him brag about it for a lifetime.

Zhao Yi's face was flushed, but when he looked up, he saw Emperor Hongzhi with a familiar look.

Of course, he didn't dare to think deeply.

It just feels familiar.

Because Emperor Hongzhi had already changed into his official crown uniform, although he felt familiar, Zhao Yi would never connect the supreme emperor in front of him with the passing scholar.

To be honest, he was a little nervous.

Heads down soon.

Together with everyone, a big gift was made.

"Calm down, don't need to be too polite." Emperor Hongzhi said lightly: "I came to Changping because of the fame, and I have heard about it for a long time. "

The bottom is silent.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "Everyone, don't be cautious, come and pass the dishes to everyone."

Xiao Jing understood and winked at the eunuch.

A moment later, in the anticipation of everyone, countless eunuchs filed in. They took the food boxes, took out corn buns one by one from the food boxes, and began to distribute them.

Wow...

A person, holding such a thing in his hand.

Senseless.

And... this is not an ordinary nest.

In fact, Wowotou is a common food in the north. Although it is eaten by ordinary people, rich people also eat it occasionally. And "Ai Wowo", Xiaozhu said, "Wowo is made of glutinous rice flour, shaped like Yuanxiao powder, with sugar filling in the middle, steamed and made with flour, and a concave on the top, so it is named Wowo.

Of course, the wowo in everyone's hands is not as good as the wowo that Liu Kuanfu explained. It looks like Xiaofenli, and the inside will not be filled with sugar, which is very expensive. It will be mixed with white flour.

This is a steamed corn bun made by a poor man with miscellaneous grains. It uses wheat that has not been completely husked, has no filling, and of course, does not add sugar.

It looks... so sad.

Emperor Hongzhi had already taken a few, held them in his hands, put them in his mouth, and chewed them.

The taste is terrible.

There is even a strange smell of chaff.

After Emperor Hongzhi chewed slowly, he swallowed and continued to eat.

Fang Jifan also sent one in his hand, looking at the nest with a speechless expression.

Others are not much better.

Someone who tasted it lightly would want to vomit.

Only Emperor Hongzhi seemed to be enjoying his meal, and soon, every nest was wiped out.

Everyone has heard that His Majesty is stingy, seeing you today...

Mao Ji smiled, pinched the nest, and started to eat it too.

"Misters, today I am hosting a banquet here to entertain you. You don't have to be polite. The food is delicious."

"Your Majesty's food is like nectar. I thank you, Your Majesty."

Mao Ji replied like this.

The others were all dumbfounded, and most of them were still holding such a thing and didn't make a sound.

Emperor Hongzhi looked up: "Eat, eat a few more, you must eat and drink enough."

Fang Jifan stood aside, thinking to himself, could it be... this is the legendary rice with severed heads?

"Your Majesty..." Mao Ji spoke again.

He looked a little 'bold'.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled, looked at Mao Ji, seemed to be interested, holding a half-gnawed cornbread in his hand, and said, "But Mao Aiqing."

"Exactly, since I became a scholar, I have lived in Dayang Mountain. Today, I have been greatly loved by His Majesty, and I summoned you to come here. I am very happy to see that Your Majesty's dragon body is healthy."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "Mao Qing's family, Mao Qing's family, why did you hang up your crown and leave at the beginning? Why, is there something unspeakable?"

"This is the ambition of the minister." Mao Ji smiled and saluted like a ceremonial, very much like everyone: "Your Majesty, don't blame me."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "Everyone has his own aspirations, I wouldn't blame you."

Emperor Hongzhi was always able to forbear when encountering troubles, and it is the same today.

He said: "Now, I heard your name again. People say that you preach here and have a great influence. Therefore, I have a look. I have invited you and the local villagers here today. I also want to hear it. What do you think about the government?"

Mao Jidao: "Don't dare."

Emperor Hongzhi took a bite of the cornbread, and put his hand next to his mouth deliberately to prevent the crumbs of the miscellaneous grains from falling down.

"There is no such thing as daring or daring. Since you are in Dayang Mountain, if you dare to say it, why don't you dare when you are in front of me?"

"What does His Majesty want to hear?"

"If you have anything to say about the Qing family, you can speak it out."

All officials and gentry looked at Mao Ji with hot eyes.

Mr. Mao Ji, he really has a great demeanor. He is in harmony with His Majesty, and he behaves like a ceremonial, courteous, but without losing his style. This is a model for scholars.

Mao Ji smiled: "I think of an allusion. After Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty started the incident in Peixian County, he often scolded Confucian scholars. He either called others 'Shu Confucianism' or 'Qi Lu', or called himself 'Er Gong'. Very rude.

Fang Jifan burst into a smile when he heard the word Ergong.

Er means what you mean, and the word Gong means elder in this context.

Therefore, if this 'Er Gong' is put in a more general way, it means that I am your father, or your father and me.

Emperor Hongzhi coughed.

Fang Jifan is busy covering his mouth.

Mao Ji didn't even look at Fang Jifan, but he said calmly: "There are even Confucian scholars visiting him. Emperor Han Gaozu took the Confucian scholar's hat and defecated on it. Your Majesty, have you heard of such an allusion? ?”

Emperor Hongzhi said without hesitation: "This allusion comes from the historical records "Gaozu Benji"."

Mao Ji smiled: "That's it. It's really inappropriate for Han Gaozu to bully scholars like this. All the wise monarchs have always respected the virtuous and corporal, just like your majesty giving a banquet to the ministers and villagers. Although it is not necessary to give them delicacies and delicacies, you can However, I think it is inappropriate to give such food."

Of course, Emperor Hongzhi heard the meaning behind Mao Ji's words.

Mao Ji compared himself with Han Gaozu's behavior of urinating on a Confucian hat.

But Emperor Hongzhi was not angry.

Since he ascended the throne, he has always opened up his voice. When the courtiers remonstrated with him, it was common for them to speak fiercely.

He smiled and looked at the ministers.

Sure enough, among the hundreds of officials, many people nodded secretly, and many village elders also lightly claimed yes.

Mao Ji spoke their minds.

They had come to a feast, not to be insulted like this.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed and said: "I often hear scholars talking about benevolence and righteousness and love for the people, so I was thinking that this food is the most common food for the common people. Today I am here with you, eat this The food that the people eat on a daily basis naturally has the meaning of sharing weal and woe with the people, but the Mao Qing family thinks that this is an insult to the scholar-bureaucrats?"

The officials and villagers were taken aback.

He looked down at the nest in his hand.

People who have read the book are different.

In fact, it's not just that everyone here has read books, the emperor has also read books.

Everyone hurriedly said: "Your Majesty has this original intention, and I respect you."

So, someone picked up the cornbread with difficulty and stuffed it into his mouth reluctantly.

Mao Ji was unmoved, he said: "Your Majesty has such a deep meaning, it is indeed admirable. But... the minister does not take it seriously."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Mao Ji: "Oh?"

Mao Ji said lightly: "The sage respects 'rituals', so what is the ritual? The ruler is the ruler, the minister is the ritual, the father and the son are the rituals, and the husband and wife are also the rituals. The king is the minister, the father is the son, and the husband is the wife. , This is all etiquette. Because of etiquette, superiority and inferiority are derived. Your majesty is the king, father, and husband. You should not eat such dross food, and ministers, etc., are the guests of your majesty and the pillars of the country. It is your majesty who governs the world, and the scholar-bureaucrats should not eat such dross, otherwise, what is the law of etiquette? Your majesty should not only cherish yourself, but also treat the scholars well, so that the scholars can be used by your majesty to stabilize the country, so that the country can be peaceful. Worry. If one day, even the scholars eat the dross, and even the scholars will be wronged, then the etiquette and laws established by the saint will be gone, and the rituals will collapse and the music will be broken. behavior begins."
