    A group of people returned to Yizhou City with all kinds of prey in a mighty way, envious of many people, Li Min took the prey back to the pce and told Zhang San to start preparations, Shangguanyi and others left first, and sent the invitation list Sort it out and submit it to Li Yin tomorrow for review.


    Returning to the south courtyard after a long journey, Li Yin just entered the door, and saw Cui Yingying hupped, and then looked at her hand, the good guy was holding a half-eaten sandwich bread.


    "You won''t eat for a whole day." Li Yin touched Cui Yingying''s round belly, "Didn''t I tell you not to eat too much?"


    Cui Yingying said: "Your Highness, it''s so delicious, I can''t help but want to eat it."


    Li Yin snatched the bread from her hand, stuffed a few mouthfuls into his mouth, and said, "Don''t eat any more, be careful not to bloat your stomach."


    Under Li Yin''s stern eyes, Cui Yingying had no choice but to nod.


    At night, Cui Yingying tossed and turned and couldn''t sleep, her stomach was bloated and ufortable, Li Yin scolded her that she deserved it, and let her remember it long, Cui Yingying admitted her mistake in a sweet voice, and began to tease and tease Li Yin, Li Yin shook his head and sighed, rubbed her well Stomach for a while.


    The next day, Shangguanyi presented the list of invitations to Li Yin. Li Yin took a look and found that there was no problem, so he asked Shangguanyi to notify them one by one. There are also those old and famous families in Yizhou. It was thanks to their cooperation that the remaining nsmen were captured in the matter of high powerst time. It is also thanks to them for inviting them toe this time.


    In order to prepare for this family banquet, Li Yin divided the pce into two parts. The front hall is where officials eat and drink, and the south courtyard is where wives anddies y. Li Yin let Zhang San let go of the oil and salt in the cer. Sauce and vinegar, preparation also allows them to experience a different taste.


    Another two dayster, everything was ready, and the day of the family banquet arrived. The guests who came to the door in the morning began one after another. Li Yin sat in the front hall, and Cui Yingying received thedy and wife in the south courtyard.


    "Grassmen, see Your Highness!" After exchanging greetings with several county magistrates, three luxuriously dressed old men and a group of boys and girls of different ages came forward to salute Li Yin, and Shangguan Yi Fuer introduced Li Yin It turns out that these are the old prominent families in Yizhou, the Dou family, the Sun family and the Qian family.


    Li Yin smiled and said: "It turned out to be Dou Gong, Sun Gong, and Qian Gong. I would like to thank the three for their great helpst time!"


    "Your Highness, you are polite. In fact, we old bones are just talking. The real contribution is from the young and strong in the n. The virtuous have never met His Highness." The head of the Dou family said to a seventeen or eighteen-year-old son standing behind.


    "Grassman, see Your Highness!" The young son bowed.


    Li Yin smiled. He nced at the head of the Dou family who looked hopeful, and he probably understood the thoughts of these old prominent families. Yizhou was pacified, and the powerful forces were cleared out of Yizhou officialdom, but this also caused vacancies in official positions. After Shangguanyi and Wang Yinlong came to power, they recruited many students from poor families. However, because of the bad influence of these powerful families in Yizhou, Shangguanyi and Wang Yinlong did not consider the old prominent families when recruiting officials.


    Li Yin understood that the power of the gentry was still the dominant force in the Tang Dynasty, and it could not be disintegrated by violence alone. Moreover, their heritage has a long history, and their cultural heritage is indeed much higher than those of the poor, so there are many talents in the n.


    "Is this the grandson of Mr. Dou? What a talent!" Li Yin looked at Dou Xiande.


    "His Royal Highness, he has just won the Jinshi in this year''s imperial examination." Even though he said this, the head of the Dou family looked proud.


    Being a Jinshi is only qualified to be an official. If you really want to be an official, you still need to go through several procedures, but one of them allows them to omit such steps, that is, to be rmended by a powerful official. In a ce like Yizhou To be an official, Li Yin only needs to nod his head and report to the court.


    Li Yin thought about it for a while, any leader does not like subordinates to form a group, but hopes that there will bepetition among them. Only by doing this can the leadership be sessful in both ways. This is why the princes in ancient times have always turned a blind eye to the party disputes among the ministers. The reason for one eye is the same for Li Yin. He still understands the reason why ves bully the master. Thinking of this, Li Yin smiled and said: "Oh, really? This Yizhou City stillcks a Sima, is Xiande willing to give in? ah."


    "This..." Dou Xiande was taken aback, looking at his grandfather.


    "Not yet, thank you Your Highness!" The head of the Dou family was stunned for a moment, and suddenly his heart blossomed. This Yizhou Sima is different from the local county magistrate, but he is a close minister next to Li Yin.


    Dou Xiande bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"


    Given such a cheap price to the Dou family, the other two naturally couldn''t treat them badly. Li Yin asked Shangguanyi to use ording to the amount when selecting officials, and also to take the prominent family into consideration. on a rope.


    Uncovering this little episode, the family banquet officially began. Zhang San led his servants to set up threerge pots in the open space of the front hall. The soup in the pots was already stewed. If modern people were here, they would definitely Smelling it, it is clearly the smell of hot pot bottom material, which Li Yin bought from Hyundai and stored in the cer. He originally nned to have a small stove with Cui Yingying, but he did not expect to catch up with today. Apart from these big pots, there are also Five or six grills with coals were lifted out, and rabbits and pheasants were skewered and ced on them. Several servants carried various seasonings, began to paint, and turned the grill to grill.


    Because too many people came, Jin Daqian lifted out the low table in the canteen of the North Courtyard, and spread a clean in cloth on the floor. At this time, a series of fried dishes began to be served.


    All the officials and prominent families looked at these novel things in amazement, and the alluring fragrance made them salivate wildly. Li Yin looked at the expressions of these people very proudly.


    "Everyone sit down, please feel free!" It was almost time, and the maids began to serve wine, Li Yin said to everyone.


    Hearing this, officials and prominent families sat down at first, picked up chopsticks to pick up vegetables, "It''s delicious!" Someone said something, and then the words of praise kept ringing out. It was the first time for Qin Huaiyu, Shangguanyi and others to taste this kind of food. The dishes, with a big appetite, began to sweep wildly. Surprisingly, the only sound of chewing was left in such a big family feast.


    Li Yin walked to the hot pot and said: "You can stand up and walk around as you like, the dishes here will not be delivered to the table, so you don''t have to be restrained.


    As soon as Li Yin finished speaking, Qin Huaiyu walked towards a hot pot with a te in his hand. He saw that Li Yin was holding a te in his hand, and he saw that there was a te in front of everyone on the table, so he followed suit and walked over. The water in the hot pot was already boiling, bubbling, and there were a lot of ingredients in it, including meat and vegetables. He picked up a meatball, tasted it, and nodded repeatedly. Li Yin taught Zhang San to make these meatballs. They are pure meatballs. It is even more delicious when soaked in soup. After eating a piece of Qin Huaiyu, I stuffed it into my mouth one after another.


    When Shangguanyi and Wang Yinlong saw each other, they both stepped forward and ate the hotpot imitatively. The three of them stayed by the hotpot after eating.


    Others were attracted to this scene, only to realize that hot pot is the main course of the family banquet, and they ate there for a long time in vain.


    At this time, the barbecue is almost done, and the servant takes down the grilled food, and whoever eats it will get it by himself.


    The situation in the South Courtyard is simr to that here. They all have the same vegetables, but the amount is less. But for the female rtives, delicious food is a matter of time, and their attention is more focused on Cui Yingying. On those treasures, such as the full-length mirror, these female rtives were shocked when they saw it, and a few youngdies even had the urge to rob, and Cui Yingying hid all those snacks, so many people shared them, she felt distressed died.


    The family banquet started at noon andsted for a full hour and a half. The guests who came were all too drunk to walk. They never thought that they could have such a delicious meal before the Chinese New Year. The well-informed and well-known families were also filled with emotion,menting that most of their lives were wasted.


    Amidst the sound of thanks, Li Yin sent these officials and prominent families away. He did not attend the annual meeting of Datang Company, but he sessfullypleted the annual meeting of Tang Dynasty.
