All Hail Cousin Brother

Chapter four hundred and ninety eight: urgent

Zhou Linghuai nodded: "It should be so!"

Yu Zongshen took a deep look at Zhou Linghuai: "Recently, the case of Li Qiguang is also in a state of desperation. After the General of Hushi's report to the court, the emperor will let the cabinet discuss as soon as possible in order to stabilize the northern border. Follow-up issues in the case of King You, restore his title of King You, The ancestral temple, merits and many other matters are imperative, and then it will be logical for Yin Huaixi to inherit the king's title and go to Youzhou to prevent Harmon from causing chaos."

In the battle of Shandong, everyone in the world heard about it. Everyone knew the emperor's intention to let Yin Huaixi guard Youzhou.

Zhou Linghuai chuckled: "The situation in the northern border is very unstable after the case of King You. The war is still in the second place. Stabilizing the northern border is the most important thing."

The meaning has been made clear, no matter how difficult the case of Li Qiguang is, the case of King You must be settled first.

The northern border is unstable, and it is difficult for the people's hearts to be stable.

Zhou Linghuai was not in the court, but he could firmly grasp the court situation.

The dust-cleaning banquet in the evening was very sumptuous.

A big family gathered around the big round table and sat down at one table to have fun, such as Aunt Qiu, the aunts who added to the Yu Mansion also set up a small table.

With Yu Zongzheng absent, Zhou Linghuai took his original seat, on the left of Mrs. Yu.

Mrs. Yang was also locked in Jingxinju, and Yu Youyao sat next to Yu Zongzheng.

In this way, it was logical for Yu Youyao to sit next to her cousin.

When people are old, they like to be lively. Mrs. Yu said cheerfully, "Ling Huai brought wine back from the north, and I happen to have a set of luminous glasses in my storeroom, which complement each other very well."

Yu Youyao picked up the small cup in front of her. It was dark green in color, as thin as an eggshell, and soft to the touch. When she lifted it up, the cup was smooth and transparent: "It looks like Xiuyu!"

Zhou Linghuai looked at her sideways: "The texture of the luminous cup is like jasper, so it is often mistaken for Xiuyu, but it is actually made of a kind of jade called Jiuquan jade, which was a tribute from the Western Regions, which was not available in the Zhou Dynasty. "

Yu Youyao nodded: "Is the luminous cup really glowing at night?"

Zhou Linghuai shook his head: "The luminous cups don't emit light. If you use the luminous cups to hold wine, under the light of the moonlight, it will reflect a bright color, sparkling, and the color of the wine. That's why it got this name. And the luminous cups, The texture is peculiar, if you use this cup to hold the wine, it will be very fragrant, and it will become 120% sweet."

At this time, the servant girl came over to pour wine.

As soon as the red wine juice entered the luminous glass, the color of the wine glistened, filled with candlelight, and the color of the wine became dizzy.

Yu Youyao sniffed her little nose, and smelled the sweetness of the wine.

"It smells so good!" Her eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to bring the wine to her lips. She didn't dare to drink it directly, but she stuck out her little tongue and licked it lightly like a cat.

Yu Youyao stared straight at her: "It's sweet and bitter, better than plum wine."

The beauty of wine lies in its mellow, aromatic and sweet taste. It is sweet in the mouth and soft in the throat. It is sweet and intense in the aftertaste, with endless aftertaste.

Even if women drink it, they think it is sweet and delicious.

Zhou Linghuai was amused by her greedy look: "This is the best wine, and it is very rare in Shanxi."

The tribute wine, with koji added to the wine, tastes more like fruit wine than naturally fermented grape juice, which is called "true wine" locally.

This kind of wine relies on technology, the production is rarer, and it is more expensive. Not only is it not available on the market, but even the tribute wine is inferior.

Holding the small cup, Yu Youyao narrowed her eyes slightly,

Like a "stealing" cat, from time to time, she sticks out her little tongue, licks the wine lightly, and smacks her lips again, which makes her so beautiful.

The wine was fragrant and delicious, and everyone liked it very much.

Even Mrs. Yu couldn't help drinking a few more glasses, and she was a little tipsy after the cleansing feast.

On the second day, the palace sent someone to deliver the relevant documents that Zhou Linghuai participated in the compilation of the "Wen Ji Shu" of the rattan library.

Zhou Linghuai's legs and feet were inconvenient.

Mrs. Yu brought the whole family to thank her, and the matter was officially settled.

Yu Youyao was very happy. From her private treasury, she selected some cloth and silk yarn that she could not use much, and rewarded some of the servants in the mansion.

Old Madam Yu looked for Zhou Linghuai: "It is also a great kindness from the emperor to be able to enter the rattan library. Do you want to enter the palace to thank the emperor?"

Yu Youyao became nervous when she heard this, and "Yin Huaixi" dared to show her mask only with the emperor's permission.

In addition, the face of "Yin Huaixi" was severely damaged, and if she was really frank, it would be unsightly and disrespectful to the Tian family.

No one in the court has seen the true face of "Yin Huaixi", but the emperor must have seen it.

Although the cousin used the identity of "Zhou Linghuai", he still used his own face. Although he modified it a little, he definitely couldn't hide it from the emperor.

Shouldn't this thank you be exposed?

Zhou Linghuai glanced at her reassuringly, and said: "The emperor knows that my legs and feet are inconvenient, and there are many rules and etiquettes in the palace. For fear of violating the majesty of the heavenly family, he specifically allows me not to enter the palace to thank you. You can also express your gratitude.”

Madam Yu was also worried about this, but now she is relieved.

Li Qiguang's case is under intensive trial, and many people have been implicated in the court.

The situation in the northern border was unstable, and Harmon secretly spied on the narrow Yu Pass. The emperor was worried, so he sent Chang Ningbo to the northern border to stabilize the situation, and announced that the chief minister of the cabinet, Xia Yansheng, would enter the palace to discuss matters.

Let Xia Yansheng step up to supervise the follow-up of You Wang's case.

Chang Ningbo went to Youzhou, as if to convey a certain message, the cabinet did not dare to neglect, and after three days of discussion, the relevant draft has been drawn up.

Xia Yansheng didn't report it to the emperor immediately: "Send it to the Yin Mansion first, show it to Yin Huaixi, and then make a decision."

There was an old minister in the cabinet who was a little displeased: "The emperor is waiting for the cabinet to discuss and finalize the case. Why are you not in a hurry and sent the draft to the Yin mansion? Yin Huaixi shouldn't be involved in this matter."

Xia Yansheng didn't even lift his eyelids, he just said vaguely: "If Yin Huaixi is not satisfied, this case is not over."

The cabinet must first satisfy Yin Huaixi.

Three days later, the Yin Mansion sent the revised draft to the Xia Mansion.

After Xia Yansheng watched it, he didn't speak for a long time.

Several old ministers in the cabinet couldn't sit still——

"Bang" someone couldn't hold back, and slapped the table on the spot: "Yin Huaixi is too arrogant. He wants to hold a funeral ceremony for His Royal Highness King You again. Not only will he not enter the imperial mausoleum, but he will also help the spirit to return to Youzhou for a big funeral..."

"The emperor mentioned before that King You should be buried in the imperial tomb..."

"What should I do when I go back to the burial mausoleum in Youzhou? I can't just bury it hastily, right?"

"Do you want to discuss it with General Yin again?"

"..."

In the blink of an eye, there was another quarrel in the cabinet.

-----Off Topic-----

In fact, ancient Chinese wine was very developed, but in the Ming Dynasty, in order to increase the production of wine, it was brewed with koji, which caused the development of "true wine" to go backwards, and foreign countries caught up.
