Chapter 368 Courtiers eat watermelon!
Song Huizong: "Yesterday King Yan sent me some watermelons. I think it's very good! So I want to give it to all courtiers!"

"watermelon?"

"What is it?"

Many courtiers simply do not understand.

I saw someone bring up some watermelons.

Cai Jing glanced at the big green thing, a little curious.

Li Yan explained the role of watermelon.

Everyone understands that this is the fruit for relieving summer heat.

It's just bigger.

Song Huizong: "This is a watermelon grown from a melon seedling that King Yan accidentally discovered some time ago! It can quench your thirst."

Cai Jing was a little surprised after looking at it. He had never seen such a big fruit. He said in surprise: "Your Majesty, we have never had such a watermelon before in Song Dynasty!"

Cai Jing rolled his eyes, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, it's hot summer now, but this thirst-quenching watermelon suddenly appeared. I thought it was an auspicious gift bestowed by the gods on the Song Dynasty, which represented the prosperity of our land in the Song Dynasty in the coming year. , It also means that the Great Song Dynasty will surely become the most prosperous and powerful country, and pass it on for generations to come!"

Hearing this, Wu Zhi felt that Cai Jing flattered him all the time.

A watermelon can be pulled out for thousands of generations.

The courtiers present were all talking about it. Although they wore hats and tilted their heads, it was easy to see that the hats made by the Taizu of the Song Dynasty were to prevent them from communicating in private, but now no one takes this rule seriously. The whole hall is talking about the watermelon.

"In the scorching summer, watermelons suddenly appeared in the Song Dynasty. It was King Yan who discovered it. It was God who used the hand of King Yan to pass this auspiciousness to the people of the world, so that the people of the Song Dynasty could spend the summer without being overheated. Dead people. It also indicates that the Song Dynasty will be more prosperous under His Majesty's rule."

"This is a good thing, Your Majesty!"

Although Cai Jing didn't know what Song Huizong was doing with these watermelons, he just agreed.

Also mentioned Wu Zhi by the way.

Cai Jing had the handle in Wu Zhi's hands, he didn't dare to be presumptuous, and even tried to curry favor.

"Nowadays when it's so hot, the appearance of watermelon is definitely auspicious, God bless Da Song!"

Cai Jing was passionate and generous.

Song Huizong nodded: "Master Cai is very reasonable, and I think so too."

Wu Zhi secretly laughed at Cai Jing's ability.

This watermelon was grown by him, and it is auspicious in Cai Jing's mouth.

However, if watermelon becomes popular, it will indeed have a great effect on the people of Song Dynasty in the hot season.

This thing was supposed to cool off the heat.

And it is the best choice.

Now that Da Song has watermelon, it is really a good thing.

But these auspicious things are actually what the ministers said to please the officials, but no one doesn't like to listen to good words.

Song Huizong immediately said: "Master Cai is right, watermelon can benefit the people, so I have an idea, since the Song Dynasty has produced this kind of watermelon to reduce the heat, in order to better benefit the people.

I feel that I can give you the first batch of watermelons to taste. Only when the courtiers get the auspiciousness from heaven can they do better for the Song Dynasty and the common people.Today, this is yours, let's eat together! "

"King Yan, how much watermelon did you bring?"

Song Huizong asked.

Wu Zhi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister has already been transported, enough for all the ministers to eat!"

"Okay!" Song Huizong nodded: "Then present it and let all the ministers enjoy the blessings of heaven!"

When the courtiers heard this, it was great!

Free watermelon?
Or a fresh, never-before-seen variety?
Many ministers are bright-eyed. This feeling is good. Today, when you go to court, eat watermelon for free?
"What Your Majesty said is true, everyone should taste this kind of blessing from heaven!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Many courtiers wanted to eat watermelon. At this time, some people began to bring baskets of watermelon to the hall.

There are five or six large watermelons in each box. The green-skinned watermelons are covered with lines and look very thick.

Makes you want to cut it open and taste it.

Song Huizong: "Come, whoever wants to eat, come up!"

Song Huizong asked people to cut it open.

"Cai Jing, you are the first to eat!" Song Huizong laughed.

Cai Jing was the first to stand up, seeing the cut red watermelon, it really made people greedy.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" Cai Jing couldn't help but began to take a bite while everyone was looking forward to it.

laugh……

Chew in mouth.

Cai Jing's eyes lit up immediately: "Your Majesty, it's sweet, it's too sweet, this watermelon tastes so good!"

Cai Jing lowered his head and continued to eat.

The courtiers next to him looked eagerly.

"Everyone, don't just look at it, eat it all!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Many courtiers ate a little each.

Some courtiers even ate all the skin and seeds.

Seeing some courtiers holding melon rinds and chewing on them, Wu Zhi found it funny.

In fact, this melon rind can be eaten, but it is generally not eaten.

It's just that watermelon is so rare that some courtiers even eat the skin.

Anyway, it's free, so don't eat for nothing.

A courtier: "Don't say it, watermelon tastes really good!"

"Yeah, I've never eaten such a delicious fruit!"

"I still want to eat!"

Everyone is one by one, and the whole court seems to have become a melon-eating meeting.

Another courtier saw some small melons and asked, "Is this small melon ripe?"

"You'll know if you cut it open!"

Wu Zhi smiled and said: "Every one of these melons is ripe, make sure they are ripe!"

Everyone continued to eat a lot.

Soon all the melons brought by Wu Zhi were eaten.

But there is still a part in Wu Zhitian, even so they have eaten a lot of these.

Song Huizong watched these courtiers wolfing down from his seat, but smiled.

People who have eaten melon think it tastes very good.

But when they finished eating and patted their stomachs and looked satisfied, Song Huizong said on it: "My dear friends, how is the food?"

"Your Majesty, I think this melon is very sweet. It really is auspicious from heaven. It's really a good melon!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, today we are blessed by Your Majesty!"

"Hehe!" Song Huizong said, "these are not planted by me, but by the king of Yan. But if you want to talk about Furui from the sky, that's the case. There is no such thing in summer in previous years. Now this watermelon tastes good and quenches your thirst. , it is indeed worthy of promotion, this is also Furui from heaven, to quench the thirst of the people all over the world!"

"However!" Song Huizong changed the subject: "This Furui came from the sky in the Song Dynasty, and our monarchs and ministers have finished eating it. What should the people of the world do?"

"Food is the most important thing for the people. Come to think of it, it was given to the people by God, but we divided it up ourselves. I'm afraid I'm sorry for the auspiciousness of God!"

What do you mean?
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other.

According to Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty, after they finished eating, the people of the world will be gone, and this matter will never end!

As soon as Cai Jing heard it, he knew what Song Huizong meant: "Your Majesty, this watermelon came to the Great Song Dynasty and was given to the people of the world, but we all finished eating it. Your Majesty...but it must be offered to God?"
