There is a meat pie restaurant in Dongshi that makes excellent meat pie.
Shen Zhiyi touched the oil stains on the corners of his mouth, and couldn’t help but buy another one and put it in his pocket.
"Chen Lang, are you buying breakfast?"
A familiar voice came from behind.
Shen Zhiyi turned around and saw that it was Zhang Sheren.
"Morning, Mr. Zhang. The meat pie in this shop tastes great. It has lots of stuffing and the skin is crispy and soft. When you take a bite, the juice bursts in your mouth. It's really delicious."
These words immediately aroused Zhang Sheren's greed, and he threw out a few copper coins and bought one.
It is indeed very fragrant.
[It's really delicious, and most importantly, it's cheap. I may have to eat this for the whole month. Damn the old emperor, he didn't even bother to provide me with food and accommodation. The palace is not a place for humans to live in.]
Zhang Sheren was curious. The salary of a sixth-rank official was not much, but all the civil and military officials in the court knew that Shen Zhiyi was the only one in his family, so the salary was just right.
No matter what I do, I can't get to the point where I need to eat meat patties every day.
[Alas, I counted it last night and I was able to donate about fifty taels of silver. I hope the people in the disaster area can get through the difficulties as soon as possible.]
Zhang Sheren's eyes suddenly widened and became round like a pie chart.
The emotions in his eyes were divided into several parts: three parts of shock, five parts of shame, and two parts of regret.
Finally, I sighed in my heart and decided that it would be better to be sincere.
[Hehe, when the old emperor woke up, he said to Chen Decai, "Today I am going to punish those ministers. I will give the silver to the talented man first, so that the old emperor can't make me bald."]
It's not easy for the people in the disaster area, but her life has to go on.
Donating fifty taels was a way of following her conscience, and she still had to live on the remaining money.
Beijing is so big that everything is expensive. I originally thought that as long as I earned tens of thousands of yuan a month, everything would be fine and I could just enjoy life.
It turned out that it was not easy for a foreigner like her to get along with Jingye. Everything in Jingye was extremely expensive.
Now the old emperor finds out that he is not as good as his subjects, and not as rich as the merchants in Daye. Who knows if he will go crazy next.
Zhang Sheren took a deep breath.
He stuffed the meat pie into his mouth in two or three seconds: "Chen Lang, I think I left something at home, I'm leaving first."
Shen Zhiyi looked at the other person pitifully and nodded in understanding: "Go quickly, time waits for no one."
Zhang Sheren disappeared in a flash.
The strange thing was that he was not the only one who disappeared in this street.
So magical!
…
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the old emperor had not arrived yet and it was already past the time for court.
The ministers all stood in their seats, chatting with their colleagues nearby.
As we were chatting, we realized that the old emperor had not arrived yet!
The old emperor has always been very punctual. He has never missed a single day in the past 20 years. He is very dedicated to his work.
“Puff.”
Eh? Who's laughing?
It turned out to be Shen Zhiyi!
You have to know that Shen Zhiyi has always suppressed her presence and rarely fails to hold back, so what did she see!
Shen Zhiyi quickly covered his mouth and looked at the people around him like a thief.
Seeing that no one noticed, he put his hand down with relief.
All the civil and military officials in the court said: Ahhhhh, we didn’t see it, tell us quickly, what did you see that makes you laugh like this!
They all lowered their heads, actually wishing they could put their ears close to Shen Zhiyi.
【Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. 】
Everyone: Your laughter is disturbing my ears.
[Zhang Sheren, oh Zhang Sheren, if I had known your son would have a fever, I should have gone to work last night! Damn it, I actually missed this great show!]
[What a pity! If I had been at work last night, I could have written it down in my diary without any worries. This kind of thing is worth recording for eternity!]
【Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.】
Damn, stop laughing and tell me what happened last night!
If you don't tell us about the melon, the meat patties you eat in the future will be dry and without skin or filling!
[The old emperor was old, but still greedy. He ate too much and felt uncomfortable, so he went to the empress to complain. The empress was annoyed by the old emperor and the imperial physician was too slow to come, so she simply used her own folk remedy.]
[It must be said that the old emperor trusted the queen so much that he drank the soup given by the queen without any doubt. This drink was incredible.]
【Hahahahahahahahahahaha. 】
Shen Zhiyi's shoulders were shaking, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.
[The Queen's folk remedy is really shocking, actually, hahahaha, it's actually a laxative, hahahaha.]
[The old emperor who had been running around in the toilet all night, finally gave our dear queen some peace and quiet.]
Whenever Shen Zhiyi thought of the old emperor last night, who was running to the toilet, sending people to pay attention to the collection of silver, and at the same time paying attention to the collection situation in the East Palace, he was so busy that his stomach hurt from laughing.
[I'm sure everyone doesn't know that the reason why the old emperor hasn't come to court yet is because he had been defecating all night and thought he was fine, but he didn't expect that as soon as he stepped out of the toilet, the feeling came back and he is now defecating like crazy.]
Thinking of this, Shen Zhiyi took out the meat pie from his sleeve pocket with peace of mind, it was still warm.
She quickly stuffed the food into her mouth in two or three bites, and even with her fingers stained with oil, she sucked on them a few times without hesitation.
[I hope the old emperor will have diarrhea every day in the future. ]
The old emperor, who had just entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony with a full stomach, heard Shen Zhiyi's inner voice, and pointed at the other party with a trembling finger in annoyance, then thought of something, took a deep breath, and suppressed his anger.
The old emperor is in a bad mood, and all his ministers will suffer.
At that time, he was the new Minister of Personnel, and previously served as the Vice Minister of Personnel.
Thanks to Shen Zhiyi, the former Minister of Personnel has retired from the country's big stage, and now he is the one to take the stage.
"Your Majesty, I did not sleep last night because I was concerned about the disaster-stricken areas in the south of the Yangtze River. Now the people in the south of the Yangtze River are hungry and homeless. If the disaster relief funds are not sent out quickly, the stability of the country may be endangered. I am willing to do my best to donate one thousand taels of silver."
[Wow, one thousand taels! ]
The new Minister of Personnel raised the corners of his lips in satisfaction.
[How stingy! Your house is almost covered with gold bricks, yet you only donated one thousand taels.]
The new Minister of Personnel had cold sweat on his forehead: "I just thought about it, one thousand taels of silver is a little too little, I am willing to donate three thousand taels of silver."
[I am still stingy. Oh, no, no, donating money is a kind act. It doesn’t matter how much money you make. How can I use morality to blackmail others? It is such a sin. Fortunately, I only think about it in my mind.]
The new Minister of Personnel was about to cry, and he knelt down with a plop: "I am willing to donate five thousand taels of silver."
There really aren't any more.
【well……】
The new Minister of Personnel began to kowtow frantically: "Eight thousand taels, eight thousand taels, no more."
