After the Tyrant Dressed As a Woman Disguised As a Man

At night, half of the sun's face was still hanging on the horizon, and the Hall of Baohe was already brightly lit. Palace lanterns were placed every ten steps in the hall.

The palace people entered in file and placed the delicacies of the mountains and the seafood on the low table in order.

This is not the first time Qiao Qing has hosted a banquet of civil and military officials as the emperor of the palace. More than half a year has passed in a blink of an eye.

After several decorations and major cleanings in the Hall of Preservation, the **** odor left by the assassins had long since disappeared, as if the usual peace and tranquility here have never happened.

Qiao Qing still held a high position alone, sitting higher than the other courtiers.

But it's not too high. It's not that the emperor feels that the heights are too cold, but that the high platform built of wood is prone to collapse accidents. If it falls, it is easy to break his arms and legs.

On Qiao Qing's birthday, there was no southwest army waiting by the side. Gu Xiao was still guarding the southwest. Even if he wanted to celebrate the birthday of the emperor, he couldn't get away.

But this time, Qiao Qing's heart is more stable than half a year ago.

She has done a lot of things in the past six months. Of course, many things are just beginning, such as Jishantang, Binghuo Camp, etc. After several months of work, it has not yet reached the time to harvest sweet fruits.

Qiao Qing is not a Mingjun. In the eyes of most people, he is not a murderous tyrant. He is between Mingjun and the tyrant. He is somewhat moody, bad temper, uncertain, and can turn his face at any time. Absolute and weak. The monarch who doesn't touch the word.

Compared with the first meeting when he first joined the throne, Qiao Qing's throne under his **** has been firmly seated.

One hundred percent of courtiers were deeply aware that Qiao Qing was no longer the prince who was not favored in the past, but the righteous lord of the world, not the puppet emperor, and he was not stupid or foolish.

About 70% of them, despite their ambitions, their ambition is that their family can obtain higher glory, rather than seeking rebellion or having other bright masters in their hearts.

Twenty percent of the people in the imperial court were either born in a poor family, or even though they were born in a family, but because they were unloved as bastards, or the family was in decline, they were pulled up by the emperor himself.

Such as Wei Han, Zhang Zongzhi and his ilk, they are completely loyal to the emperor.

This group of people only occupy two seats among the Jiuqing. Although the ranks are not too low, they can only be regarded as middle-level officials among the officials.

The number of people is not too large, and it is not enough for Qiao Qing to speak up. After all, it is still an era when the courtiers can be allowed to sit in the upper court. It is difficult for the monarchs and ministers to run the country together, and it is difficult to promote new policies.

After all, Qiao Qing is still not strong enough. If she has an invincible army in her hand, the iron cavalry will step on everywhere, no one can stop it, and even the hard bones will be much more obedient.

Qiao Qing looked around the ministers, and today was the birthday of the emperor. Even the serious and rigid officials on weekdays worked hard to raise a smile and acted very cooperatively.

Qiao Qing looked at King Liang. Her cheap uncle Wang has been in the capital for ten days, but she has gone to the mansion several times. The latter is either absent or training in the mansion due to illness.

This disease is naturally a disease of inadequacy. At the time of the emperor’s birthday, King Liang was so ill that he did not enter Beijing several times.

She looked at King Liang. Because of martial arts, she seemed to have a completely different physique from those literati who were so thin that they could die with the wind at any time.

Qi Fu is very generous, and Wang Liang's body is no exception. When he raised his sleeves and raised his wine glass, Qiao Qing saw the strong muscles on the opponent's arm.

Even if the face is smeared with white lead powder and a sickly makeup, King Liang, the power between your gestures is still betrayed, don't you know.

Qiao Qing snorted coldly, not feeling very happy. She swept around again, but didn't see Yanyu's beautiful glowing face.

Wei Han was here, looking at her with piercing eyes, a pair of eyes full of joy.

Something good must have happened, it seems that Yanyu's abilities should not be small.

If there were sufficiently powerful weapons, it would be that King Liang attacked Chang'an and surrounded the imperial palace. Qiao Qing also had the ability to make any anti-thief come back and forth.

Qiao Qing put his heart down, and raised the luminous cup made of jasper to Wei Han.

"You lords can be here today, congratulations on my birthday, I am very happy, and have a banquet!"

Having been a boss for so many years, Qiao Qing didn't like to talk about a lot of Barabara like the host.

What's more, the monarch and his subjects are no better than the superiors and subordinates. The superiors need to speak more to show their closeness, but the monarchs had better keep cold.

After the succinct announcement of the opening of the banquet, the rest is the birthday banquet program to add fun time.

Qi State used wine to reward his courtiers, expressing the monarch's love for his courtiers. Qiao Qing raised the wine glass and respected the important ministers for a round.

@∞好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

In the first round, respect all of you, in the second round, respect the three gongs and nine princes, and in the third round, reward some of Qiao Qing's favored courtiers.

Only people with merit can be rewarded by the emperor.

The scholar-officials of Qi State were wanton, and after letting go, some people soon became drunk.

Qiao Qing's position was not far from King Liang. She stood up, walked to King Liang, and then got up to pour wine to King Liang herself.

"Uncle is really a rare visitor. I haven't seen him for many years. You can't help but drink this wine."

In later generations, sitting in the position that Qiao Qing came after, as long as she was unwilling, no one would dare to force her to nod and drink at the banquet.

But now she is to be the person who persuades the wine to listen to the mantra of the Liang Wang after drinking.

The emperor did not dare to give up, not to mention that Qiao Qing was pouring the wine personally, which simply gave Liang Wang enough face.

This very heroic man got up at the beginning: "Your Majesty is serious."

He raised the glass filled by the emperor for him, and drank it all in one go.

Qiao Qing ordered someone to bring a jug again, and Qiao Qing raised his sleeves, and dark red liquid came out of the jug.

The sound of silk and bamboo was still present, but the tumultuous voices disappeared a lot.

What did the emperor do, what he poured out, could it be human blood? !

Even King Liang's expression changed a little. Qiao Qing poured himself a glass, the wine-red liquid rippling in the emerald green wine glass, it was really a luminous glass of grape wine.

Then in front of the slightly frightened officials, Qiao Qing drank the wine.

In a sound of inhalation, Qiao Qing said unhurriedly: "This is a recipe bought from a nobleman in Fanbang. All of them drink fruit wine made from grapes. I ordered people to make a few pots of wine. It's a pity. Many of them were bad, and I had to get such a pot. Hearing that wine is good for health, King Liang drank a few more glasses today."

Since Qi's wine is controlled by the government, folk winemaking is not allowed. Although there are many types, they are not well developed. There is no wine yet.

According to historical records, two more dynasties after the Qi dynasty, wine will be introduced from Fanbang into the dynasty.

After all, for most people, clear and pure white wine or amber wine is good wine.

Qiao Qing also ate a lot of purple jade grapes in the summer, only to remember that now is the wine-making season.

The new wine was fermented for about seven days and was moved to oak barrels. It was less than a month old, and it still had a sweet fruity aroma.

As the most noble emperor of the Qi Dynasty, Qiao Qing can be described as a weather vane in the capital. She promotes this wine from top to bottom, and it is easy to make this new thing famous and sell it at a high price.

It is Qiao Qing's purpose to get Liang Wang drunk and make Liang Wang embarrassed, but it is also one of the important reasons that he wants to take this opportunity to sell her wine and make a lot of money.

Hearing that it was wine, everyone was relieved. After all, if the emperor was bloodthirsty, it would still be quite scary.

King Liang raised the wine glass, and what he smelled was the mellow aroma of grapes and wine. He didn't pretend, and drank it again.

This was just the beginning. Qiao Qing persuaded King Liang to drink many times later, and they were all words that were difficult for people to refuse.

After all, it is the wine table culture that has been handed down for thousands of years. Liang Wang almost finished drinking a pot, and finally his face turned red before he waved his hand again and again, saying that he was incapable of drinking.

The degree of new wine is not high. Qiao Qing asked the person in charge of winemaking to adjust the taste. The taste is soft and not intoxicating, but the stamina is not small.

Of course, Qiao Qing still doubts whether King Liang is really drunk.

But since King Liang herself claimed to be drunk, she took advantage of the situation and invited King Liang to stay overnight.

"Uncle Wang grew up in this palace. He hasn't seen me for many years. Why don't you see him too much? Since he's drunk, he just stayed in the palace."

The emperor said that he was affectionate, but his attitude was very tough and could not be refuted at all.

King Liang couldn't figure out what wrong idea his nephew was making, but he was so drunk just now, and he couldn't suddenly wake up, so he was forced to let the palace man arranged by Qiao Qing carry him to the side hall.

Halfway through drinking, it was Qiao Qing's favorite gift-giving link. Sure enough, because of the vigorous promotion of the pampering palace people around the emperor, those who can give expensive things this year are basically picking valuable things to give.

Qiao Qing received 10,000 yuan in the morning, and his mentality has changed a lot. No matter how expensive things are here, it can't be as expensive as 10,000 yuan.

But mosquito meat is also meat. She has always given good ministers a smile, making them flattered.

There is no assassination, no major disturbances, and the matter ends happily.

At the banquets, there were many beautiful women to cheer, but Qiao Qing didn't like this. She didn't even take the imperial concubine. She didn't dare to act as a monarch, and there was no one for the lustful courtiers.

The left and right are all colleagues, so let them touch the wrinkled and rough veteran hands of their colleagues or Shangguan.

As soon as the banquet was over, Qiao Qing originally wanted to go to the side hall to take a look at King Liang, but the servant put up a note and said that it was Wei Han who wanted to see her.

When the monarch and his ministers were alone, Wei Han poured the liquor and wrote the words Shiliannu on the table. @∞好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City

He was happy today, but he didn't dare to drink freely.

Fortunately, he has a physique that makes his face even after drinking. After drinking two cups, he becomes very red, and no one can persuade him.

In the end, it was the emperor and the former celebrity, and no one wanted to offend Wei Han at this time.

After all, Wei Han is not the kind of person who is not good at rejection. If he doesn't deal with it in the first place, then the tricks of persuading alcohol will be of no use.

Thinking of the scene that Wei Han described, and the Shilian Nu.

Qiao Qing laughed: "Wei Qing is really my lucky star!"

Wei Han said with a red face, "It was the person invited by your majesty. Naturally, your majesty is very powerful."

The monarch and the minister were blowing to each other again, or Qiao Qing awoke from the rainbow fart first: "Since this is the case, take me to see the banquet man soon, don't make him wait in a hurry."

Even the banquet, the gift giving, and the entertainment program during the period, this birthday banquet lasted for more than an hour. I hope that the Shiliannu people will be sober and not get angry.

Qiao Qing has always been tolerant of people who can make money for themselves.
