"Great man, be careful~"

An exclaim came from beside him, and an official passing by helped him hold him in, and then asked with concern, "Why does Gao look so ugly? Should I go to the imperial physician to look for it?"

"It's okay, I just tripped up by the steps, thank you very much!"

After Gao Teng bowed his hands to thank him repeatedly, he felt a chill in his heart. Because after thinking hard just now, he felt that Chen Xu was disliked by him and was about to drive him off from the Ministry of Revenue Order.

Although Chen Xu has basically not offended all the civil and military officials of the court in recent years, as the main body of Chen Xu's reform, the Ministry of Revenue, whether it is industrial and commercial taxation or reforms for ordinary people and rural agriculture, is under the implementation of the Ministry of Revenue. However, during this implementation, the Ministry of Revenue will naturally have its own ideas. The struggle between different camps in the court will eventually slowly be on the head of the household. The new reform is naturally somewhat different from what Chen Xu imagines, or Chen Xu

In order to be delayed by the promotion, Chen Xu thought that it could be implemented slowly, but instead accelerated its operation. For example, reforms related to agricultural production and the interests of farmers are necessary to urgently speed up the reform process. However, the kings, princes, princes, ministers and all officials who have always been accustomed to exploiting and suppressing farmers seem to have no choice but to ignore the interests of farmers and can be ignored. Therefore, many reform measures to relieve farmers' production and agricultural preferential treatment were delayed and even disobeyed...

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Chen Xu's incident was a warning to him. Gao Teng walked slowly. When he walked to the gate of the Chaogong Hall, he was the only one left on the long steps. When he walked into the Chaogong Hall, he was already pale and sweaty on his forehead. Even the concerns and greetings of the officials on both sides were almost deaf.

Gao Teng was almost confused and finished listening to the following court discussion.

The Marine Division fleet won the first battle. Without losing one soldier and one soldier, it conquered Jizi Korea, defeated the Three Koreans and dozens of tribes, captured more than ten large tribe leaders, and captured more than 37,000 people. In particular, the Marine King, who represented Jizi Korea, seized various bronze, gold and jade and other ritual instruments, chariots, horses and ceremonial guards and other items representing the Shang royal family. This indicates that the Korean Peninsula, which has always been disobeyed by the jurisdiction of the Qin Dynasty, has been completely pacified. The main task of the Marine Division fleet is to transport all the prisoners to the two seaports, Liaodong and Langya, with large ships.

The victory of conquering North Korea was a very small surprise for Daqin, especially in this cold winter.

In addition to the more than ten leaders of the Korean tribes escorted back to the capital, more than 30,000 prisoners had been arranged in advance by the Hou of Qinghe and Emperor Shi. Therefore, in the court, the vice president of the Maritime Academy led by Han Xinhe roughly talked about the process of conquering the Korean Peninsula, the Emperor Shi ordered all the prisoners captured this time to be assigned to the Langya area in Liaodong to participate in the construction of the harbor and various places. The rest were issued to notify the Liao King and the Governor of Korea and Xiao He of Yingzhou to arrange for officials to accept the governance of the Korean Peninsula as soon as possible.

In other words, the Ministry of Revenue, which should have been the busiest, did not make any arrangements after this major victory.

In just half an hour, the Korean debate specifically targeted the conquest of the Korean Peninsula ended.

All civil and military officials were discussing happily that the scattered court returned to the government office to work, but the Ministry of Households ordered Gao Teng to be lost and at a loss.

However, Chen Xu was not interested in Gao Teng. The first battle of the Sea Division Fleet won, and he felt that he should celebrate. Moreover, since he returned from the last inspection, he has been very busy. He has not drunk enough to enhance his relationship with Chen Ping, Liu Bang and Xu Fu, etc., and it is not good to continue like this. In addition, Han Xin returned, and according to this merit assessment, he would definitely increase military merits again. Therefore, Chen Xu decided to waste his money and arrange for the housekeeper to buy a large amount of fresh ingredients. He called back a group of Qinghe Garden chefs and chefs who had recently gone to other Quyuan restaurants to earn extra money, and arranged a grand party at Qinghe Villa.

Everyone was excited about Chen Xu's treat.

In the past two years, as Chen Xu's official career grew bigger and bigger, the reforms became faster and faster.

There are more and more things happening, and Chen Xu has fewer and fewer opportunities to treat him. The last time he treated him, it seemed that he had two daughters in February in the beginning of spring.

So after receiving Chen Xu's invitation, the next morning, Chen Xu was sleeping with his sister-in-law Fan Caiwei, and was awakened by the housekeeper of the Marquis's mansion.

"What's the matter? Calling me so early, don't you know if you're going to have a break today?"

Chen Xu opened his eyes lazily, looked at his sister-in-law who was lying in her arms, and spoke impatiently.

"Return to the Marquis, the housekeeper said that Marquis Xibo came to the banquet with a cart of gifts!"

"Go to the banquet?" Chen Xu was stunned for a long time, looking at the not-so-bright window.

"Yes, the Marquis posted a post yesterday to invite many friends to come to the other yard to attend the dinner today!" The maid stood outside the door and answered carefully.

"Damn, I invited a dinner party. He came so early to fuck her?" Chen Xu's face turned dark in an instant.

"I don't know, but the housekeeper said he would ask the Marquis and his aunt to get up quickly. He heard from the Marquis Xibo that there would be guests coming soon. When he left the city, he encountered several carriages of acquaintances, all of whom came to the Marquis' Mansion..."

Chen Xu:...

Qinghe Villa, which had been lonely for half a year, suddenly became lively in this cold winter morning. From Xianyang City to Qinghe Villa, on the wide and flat cement road, all the way, there were four-wheeled luxury carriages, and there were men and women sitting on it with joy and impatient faces.

This strange and lively scene immediately attracted the attention of the people along the way and on the fiefdom. Early in the morning, villagers carrying loads, hoes, and cattle and horses stood by the roadside watching, bowing to the galloping carriages.

When the Queen of Qinghe treats guests, everyone who comes must be noble people.

As a ray of red glow in the sky illuminates, the towering Taiyi Mountain reveals its majestic figure in the confused morning fog. On the vast plains on both sides of the Wei River, the wheat sown in winter has been unearthed three or five inches. Large areas of emerald green floats with the cold wind in the morning when the smoke and mist is surrounded by cold wind. The mountains, rivers, fields and fields are everywhere. Although the cold wind is just after a winter snow, it still cannot hide the prosperous scene around Xianyang.

Shen Shizhong was only an hour later than usual. Chen Xu, who wanted to take advantage of the rest of the day and sleep in, had to let go of his gentle and warm sister-in-law in the notice of the arrival of guests, and trembled in the cold wind in the morning to greet the guests.

Chen Xu was depressed, but the guests were excited one by one.

After more than half a year, I finally got the meal from the Qinghe Hou family again.

At present, the food in the Qinghe Hou family in Xianyang is not necessarily the best. The food in many Quyuan restaurants is actually good. Senior chefs from Qingheyuan have been hired as experts as external experts to provide cooking guidance and chef training. Over the years, the level of the catering industry in Xianyang and even some larger county towns in Daqin has been greatly improved. In addition, the food columns opened in Daqin Metropolis Daily have been continuously promoted. Chefs from all over the world have developed food suitable for local tastes according to local conditions. In the current Daqin, catering food has been extremely rich, and various styles of food have begun to appear.

Therefore, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can eat delicious food in hotels and food halls in Xianyang, which is also the reason why Qinghe Garden is declining today.

But for the entire Qin Dynasty, there were very few people who could go to Qinghe Hou’s house to have a meal.

Having a meal with Qinghehou is not a matter of whether it is delicious or not, but a matter of face. Just like being able to attend an imperial banquet in the palace, it is a symbol of identity and status, and it is also a manifestation of closeness and distant relationship.

In Xianyang, the capital, if you have never had a palace banquet, you will never be considered a person in the top circle. Eating the food from the Qinghe Hou family is even more difficult than a palace banquet, because Qinghe Hou has never invited his own circle of friends, and these people have a messy identity, ranging from young masters to cooks and even servants, and never emphasize the superiority and status of the superiors and subordinates.

Li Shun, Chen Ping, Xu Fu, Liu Bang, Qiu Cheng, Fu An, Fan Kuai, Ma Gan, Gongshu Sheng, Tang Ting, Sun Shujiu, Huangfu Que, Shi Xuan, Bo Daocheng, Yang Kun, Fang Sheng, Zhang Wen...

Many guests came by car, carrying gift boxes or bags of gifts. When they entered the door, they laughed at the old butler. There were also some strange guests who were basically not particular about it and came with a gift with a hemp rope. The old butler could only thank him with a smile on his face.

Before the end of Shen period, the entire Marquis' Mansion was already crowded with cars and horses in the yard, and there were still cars and horses coming on the road. Later, as the guards and officials came to report, the CRRC Mansion's Order Su Yue, the Grand Historian Cao Ming, the Customs Office Chief Li You, the Pushe Zhou Qingchen, the Xiyue Hou Kangqi and other officials who had never sent invitations at all came.

Just as Chen Xu was twitching his face to greet Xiyuehou at the gate, three more carriages followed behind him, and those who got off the bus were Fusu, Ziying and two young masters.

"Brother, didn't you invite these people?" Han Xin, who followed him to be the welcoming officer, couldn't help but whisper to Chen Xu.

"No, hurry up and ask the housekeeper to arrange for someone to purchase ingredients. This meal will probably be eaten from morning to night!" Chen Xu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Just as Chen Xu accompanied Xiyuehou and Fusu and others to return to the living room, Li Shun, Chen Ping, Liu Bang and Xu Fu and other groups of close dog legs had already set off the chess and card table without any hesitation, playing mahjong, playing mahjong, playing mahjong, playing landlord, playing chess, and those who didn't take up the seat were all laughing and joking around to watch the game, and the entire living room was full of joy and lively.

"Don't blame me, this marquis has always been like this. Please~" Chen Xu sat down with Kang Qi, Fusu and others to have tea, and looked at the noisy look in the room.

"Where are the left prime ministers and people are kind and friendly, and the guests are unconventional. Only the left prime minister can do this. Kang Qi admires him too late. Today he takes the liberty to visit him. Please don't blame him!" Kang Qi laughed sincerely and a little uneasy.

"Haha, Xiyue Hou was joking. My marquis liked the most was the excitement. I had returned from a long trip this time, but I had not had time to visit Xiyue Hou's Mansion. Since I came today, I will definitely be drunk later!"

"Okay, I heard that Zuo Xiang is said to be drunk for a thousand cups, but I am afraid that Kang Qi will not be able to drink and can't accompany Zuo Xiang to enjoy his whole life..."

"Marquis Xiyue said very much. The Grand Master is invincible in the world. We are afraid that we will go to the bottom of the table later!" Gongzi Gui and Gongzi Nan agreed with a smile.

"Where is, I recently found that drinking is not very good..."

Just as Chen Xu and Kang Qifusu and others were chatting, the guard suddenly rushed in and reported again, "Marty, Princess Susa is here to visit!"

Suddenly, the room was quiet, and the noisy and noisy sounds of playing mahjong, poker, chess and laughter disappeared instantly. Li Shun, Chen Ping, Liu Bang and others all turned to look at Chen Xu.
Chapter completed!
