Chapter 38 Don't hurry, it will be soon(2/2)
The more I think about it, the angrier I get, Dong.
Carey waved his hand and said, "Let's do it this way. The Hu family kid can't afford any decent betrothal gift anyway."
He sent the matchmaker away and sighed alone.
I feel a lot of regret.
Until Zhou Jiajia heard about Hu Bao's deeds...
Hu Bao is the real gold mine...
Soldier, medal!
Dong Jiji rolled his eyes, he had met a treasure, and said hurriedly: "Quick, go and call the lady."
Whether Dong Jiajia's marriage with the Hu family will be successful is another matter, but Dong Jiajiao's attitude has already revealed a change in his thinking.
There are many examples like Dong Jiajia...
Although others do not have the highest honor of the Haoran Righteousness Chapter like Hu Bao, there has been a saying in the world that when you marry a man, you should marry a hero.
There is no doubt that the heroic man refers to the soldier.
*********
As the floods in the Yellow River subsided, the weather quickly turned cooler.@*~~
Luo Youdu finished his official duties early that day.
After the aftermath of the Yellow River subsided, the imperial court was back on track.
Luo Youdu was also able to breathe a sigh of relief and have some rest time.
When he walked out of Yanhe Hall, a gust of cold wind blew by, and Luo Youdu couldn't help but shiver.
Before I knew it, it was winter again. I licked my lips and had the idea of drinking some wine to warm up. Naturally, I thought of Han Lingkun and Shi Shouxin.
He has excellent control over interpersonal relationships, and he has been exposed to both the civil and military affairs of North Korea and China.
Every time I want to drink, the first people I think of are Han Lingkun and Shi Shouxin.
These two old brothers are both monarchs and ministers, as well as good friends. They are one of the few people who can speak thoughtful words to me.
"Go to the general's palace, and the commander of Shidu will call him and tell him that I have opened an altar here so that it can be sprinkled!"
Luo Youdu quickly walked to the Wende Hall and asked people to prepare wine and food. After thinking for a while, he said, "Go get some Shaozi. You don't see many of them."
Shaozi is the rambutan of later generations, also called hairy lychee. It is a specialty of the Malay Peninsula. It likes to grow in high temperature and humid areas, and is extremely rare in the Central Plains.
Like lychees, this thing should not be stored for a long time. It will change color and become spots after three days at room temperature. Even if it is refrigerated in ice, it will only stay fresh for about ten days.
Luo Yudu deployed in the southeast and established a military base in Puluo, which was under the jurisdiction of Sri Lanka, which was later Singapore.
Now the South China Sea navy is rampant in the South China Sea, which has sufficient deterrence to Southeast Asian countries.
In order to please Luo Youdu, the emperor of the suzerain state, the countries in Southeast Asia did everything they could.
It is difficult to transport rambutan from the Malay Peninsula to Bianjing under normal transportation.
Even if Concubine Yang did that, it would not work if she specially opened a litchi path.
But the method is figured out by people...
Prince Zhenla, also known as the enemy's Crouching Dragon Phoenix, came up with a good idea, and directly took the rambutan tree, including the tree, roots and soil, on a sea ship all the way north.
The rambutan tree cannot adapt to the northern climate, but it has a process of death.
Before it dies completely, the rambutan on the tree is fresh.
Through this special method, Prince Chenla successfully allowed Luo Youdu, who was far away in Bianjing, to eat the freshest rambutans.
Luo Youdu inevitably used this rare fruit to entertain friends like Han Lingkun and Shi Shouxin.
Not long after, Han Lingkun and Shi Shouxin arrived at Wende Hall together.
Luo Youdu invited them to sit down and eat fruit.
Looking at the rambutan covered with thorns, Han Lingkun and Shi Shouxin both showed expressions that they had never seen in the world.
Luo Youdu laughed and said: "This thing can be eaten just like lychee. It's called Shaozi in the book, but I like to call it rambutan. To be honest, it doesn't taste as good as lychee. Just to let you see the world and try something new, you'd better drink it."
Lord."
Han Lingkun, Shi Shouxin understood, it is rambutan.
Han Lingkun ate it and it was indeed not as sweet as lychee.
But Shi Shouxin has a strong taste and likes to eat sweet and sour food, so rambutan is more to his liking and he said, "I think rambutan tastes better."
Luo Youdu smiled and said, "Then take more with you. By the way, the thin film on the surface of the fruit is not good for your health, so you don't need to eat it."
While I was talking, Shangshi Bureau had already delivered it.
Had wine and food.
Fenjiu, which is mainly based on the fragrance of apricot flowers, is roasted over a warm fire, and the fragrance fills the hall, making people's mouths move.
Luo Youdu drank a lot of famous wines at dinner parties in later generations, whether they were white, red or beer, but they were not as good as the soju he drank in ancient times.
Fenjiu can bring out the flavor of sweet-scented osmanthus, Jimo old wine can bring out the aroma of millet...
Maybe the purification technology is higher, but the taste is gone.
The hot water spreads down your belly, and your body immediately warms up.
Luo Youdu was chatting with two old friends and asked casually: "How is the morale of the army?"
Han Lingkun's eyes were fiery and he said: "Soldiers can fight."
Compared to Han Lingkun's reservedness, Shi Shouxin burst out laughing and said, "Your Majesty, when do you plan to send troops to the Northern Expedition? With these soldiers in Lao Shi's hands now, if they can still be defeated, just wipe their necks."
The status of soldiers increased, and a sense of honor and belief emerged.
As Han Lingkun, the general in charge of the army, Shi Shouxin clearly noticed that the momentum of the soldiers in his hands was completely different from before.
Due to the constraints of military regulations, the murderous and violent aura in the five generations of veterans is gradually dissipating.
The equipment is indeed sophisticated, but the soldiers' fighting spirit and desire to survive are obviously not as good as before, and their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced.
But now, the two of them keenly felt that the current Forbidden Army had an indescribable momentum, which was more powerful than the unbridled killing and brutality.
Chapter completed!
