308 Right and wrong, at ease in the hearts of the people
When he came out of Xue's mansion, it was already two hours later.
After experiencing this kind of incident, I sat in the carriage, and I couldn't help but have a tired look on my face, this Xue Mansion matter, is a mess of bad accounts that are difficult to clarify, once there are interests involved, it is the father and the son, the interests are supreme;
The inside story of the Xue family's crime involved in the Qiao Sanyi case can be said to have given the Xue family the last fatal blow. The Xue Mansion was separated, and Xue Xuan, the head of the Xue family, was also powerless to control it, so he could only watch the Xue family completely fall, and Xue Xuan couldn't afford to fall ill so far.
Xue Xuan once single-handedly cultivated Xue Zhen, and later became Qiao San, the owner of Xiaoyao Building, fiddled with the core economic lifeline of Luoyang City under his control, and the power of the Xue family also reached its peak in his hands, even if the reputation is not as good as the palace family at the head of the four great families, and the prestige is not as good as the Liu family, but if the wheel of wealth is the only one of the four families.
The situation of the Xue family is now really in response to that sentence: success is also Qiao San, defeat is also Qiao San.
When Sister Ah took Qiao San away, it was said that Qiao San was also about to die. As for whether people can be saved, it depends on Qiao San's own creation.
Now, the Xue family is considered to have been defeated, and the four major families that have both prospered and lost have also ushered in a difficult juncture that is difficult to cross easily. But the more this is the case, the more beneficial it will be for the imperial court to control the four major families and the famous families in Luoyang, who are looking forward to their horses. And some of the originally suppressed and defeated families in Shandong and Jiangnan also took advantage of the situation to cling to the Northern Wei Dynasty, seizing every opportunity that could be seized to make the family rise again, and Gan Ning, who submitted documents to me halfway, was one of the representatives, of course, he was just one of the many of them.
This world is unfair to people, people are born into three, six, nine and so on, the family has a grade, there is a difference between the suzerain, and there are high and low between people, on this pyramid of power accumulation, there are only a handful of people at the top, followed by the royal family at all levels and the major famous families, and the lower down are the ordinary people who are exploited and oppressed and even the freedom of life has lost like pigs and dogs slaves and so on.
Sometimes I think about it, the reason why these people are so groveling and flattering to me is only because the Gao family is a family in the upper middle position on the pyramid of power, and the power of the Gao family has been able to squeeze into the position that is closer to the top of the pyramid of power through marriage with the royal family, but the closer to the top level, the more dangerous it is to be subverted, because there have been countless families who have been close to that position, but without exception, they have either fallen to pieces and broken bones, or have since collapsed and declined, and only a few of them have been reborn in Nirvana, replacing the position of the original top people and becoming the new climbers on this power pyramidγ
Yes, what they worship is not me personally, but the power and status that I represent behind me......
After thinking about this, I suddenly felt that in this world, where family background and status are rounded up to high and low, it is so ridiculous and uninteresting.
I was looking down and thinking to myself, but Chaha smelled a very sweet smell, the aroma of freshly baked pastries!
This aroma alone makes people's appetite move and salivate.
Now I suddenly came to my senses, lifted the curtain of the car and looked around, and when the messenger saw me poking my head out, he thought that there was something to order, and said busily:
"Shangguan, do you have any instructions?"
I shook my head and asked:
"What a famous pastry shop in the neighborhood?"
The errand officer was slightly surprised, as if he didn't expect me to be interested in pastries, he was busy looking around, but he saw that not far away is not a very famous pastry shop in Luoyang, Yihe Zhai, don't look at the faΓ§ade of this shop is not big, but the female owner of this shop is a person who is very good at making all kinds of pastries, not only the style of pastries is lovely, the taste is also different from person to person, even the taste is crispy and delicious, melt in the mouth, suitable for all ages, so every day as long as this shop opens, waiting to buy freshly baked pastries The guests are endless, this line is a few long lines, very spectacularγ
"In front of it is the most famous pastry shop in Luoyang City, Shangguan is a delicious pastry?"
These officials have been working with me for some time, and they know that I am a hard-line person in official affairs, and do not show favoritism, but in private, as long as I do not violate the law, I am not a person who does not understand people. So you won't be too serious when you talk to me.
Although I also like to eat pastries, I will notice this, but it is because I like to eat more, and now there is Xiao Xue'er......
"Well, I do. β
I don't have to hide this preference. Looking at the long queue outside the pastry shop, you can know that the pastries in this shop are extremely popular.
The messenger was a clever man, and hurriedly asked:
"Go down and buy some for Shangguan!"
I smiled faintly, shook my head and said:
"No, you don't know what kind of pastry she likes, so I'll go myself. β
When the messenger heard this, he turned to look at the long line and was slightly dumbfounded, if he lined up to buy it according to the rules, he would have to wait for at least more than half an hour.
"But, Shangguan, there are a lot of people here, I'm just afraid of ......"
The officers tried to dissuade me, and I knew their scruples, but since it was something I had already decided, I had to do it.
"It's okay, stop the car. β
"Yes. β
After a few moments, the carriage came to a peaceful stop.
I pushed the curtain and got out of the carriage with the help of the coachman.
"Alright, go back in the carriage first, and don't block the passage here. β
I tidied up a little bit of my uniform, and then sent a few of them back first.
"This ......"
Several of the officers looked at each other, and their faces did not change slightly.
Leaving Gao Yushi here alone, what if something happens to him?
A burly servant who had been following behind the carriage of the horse came out calmly, and immediately waved his fist at me, and said:
"The last general, please order to leave the guard Gongzi!"
I squinted, and after recognizing the person, the corners of my mouth twitched, and said:
"You, aren't you the official who accompanied you when you went out of the city to inspect last time?"
It's actually the stunned Yanyun Dragon Rider again!
"Childe still remembers the last general, this is the honor of the last general!"
I don't know if I can't refuse because he is the person who arranged it.
"Okay, you stay, leave two more horses, and the others will go back first. β
"Yes, Shangguan. β
Seeing that I was so determined, the others did not dare to have any objections, and after leaving the two horses, they all bowed with fists, and drove the carriage back slowly.
When the men were far away, I looked back at the guard who was five paces behind me, thinking that I had been able to escape because of his sacrifice of his life last time, and now that he was safe and sound, I was relieved.
"Thank you for sacrificing your life to save me last time. β
As he spoke, he bowed to him as a token of gratitude.
"Don't dare to be, this is the duty of the general. β
Sure enough, even the wording of the response was straightforward.
"Are you hurt?"
I can't help but be a little curious, after all, last time he was an enemy several times his own, and it was not easy to save his life.
"It's just a small injury, but it's not enough to worry about it. β
When I heard this, I couldn't help but smile, and with a little peculiar thought, I asked:
"Are all the soldiers under your young marshal as loyal and upright as you?"
At the end of the conversation, I deliberately accentuated the word Gengzhi, and asked him if other generals did the same thing as him.
"I'm ashamed, the last general is the most stupid among the generals. β
Clearly, he heard what I was saying.
"Haha, who said that your qualifications are the most stupid, you are too humble. β
How can a person who can become a direct member of the family of Jue be a general.
"What is your young marshal's position in the hearts of the Yanyun Dragoons?"
I rarely have the opportunity to know what kind of person Jue is in the eyes of others as the commander of Yanyun.
"The young marshal is the soul of Yanyunjun, and he is the most respected person in the hearts of our soldiers. β
At the mention of their young marshal, the dull guard's eyes seemed to glow with a strange light.
How far is this respect and love?
I don't know why, I suddenly felt a little surprised in my heart......
"The hearts of all the soldiers who respect and love the young marshal are overflowing, where should the Son of Heaven be?"
This sentence that I suddenly came out of the picture is indeed a bit of a big surprise.
β......β
The guards were silent suddenly, not daring to say anything more.
I know that he is a smart man, I know the deep meaning of my words, some respect and love, just put it in my heart, don't easily mention it to others, after all, three people become tigers, and people's words are terrifying!
"The young marshal has saved the lives of our soldiers and soldiers......"
The words of the guard will fully describe the loyalty to Jue.
But when I heard this, my heart suddenly became extremely heavy.
The blood of the soldiers was spilled on the battlefield, and the body of the horse leather was shrouded, that was heroic and heroic, swallowing mountains and rivers.
But behind this, one sentence summed up how much bloody wind and rain, life and death......
"Your young marshal likes to eat almond and peach crisp, and it has to be from Wufangzhai in the capital, because the other shops are too sweet and greasy. β
I said these words as if I was talking about homely things, and there was a little emotion on my face, compared to Xiao Jue who fought on the battlefield, I knew more about Xiao Jue who was as usual, Xiao Jue who was an ordinary person who had joys and sorrows, love and hatred, this is the young marshal they don't know, and I know!
When the guard heard this, he didn't seem to know why I said it all of a sudden. In his heart, although their young marshal has a lot of protection for me, I have always been an official in the court, and after I am a powerful minister, the court is most taboo about the collusion between military generals and civil ministers, so I should keep a certain distance no matter what.
But when he heard that the young marshal actually liked to eat pastries, the guards still felt a little strange and couldn't help but feel excited, it turned out that the young marshal also liked to eat food. But what is strange is that the young marshal's preferences are very little known to the sergeants who are always with them, why does Gao Yushi know so much?
"So at one point I thought she didn't like sweet pastries, but then I learned that she didn't like sweets. It's ......"
In the middle of my sentence, I paused for a moment and did not continue, but suddenly changed the subject and continued:
"So, do you think, should I buy her sweet or not?"
I asked very seriously, but the guards didn't know how to answer.
It's not that the young marshal doesn't like to eat sweets, so he shouldn't hate it, in that case, it seems that it's okay to buy sweet pastries!
But why do they talk about whether the young marshal likes to eat sweet or unsweet pastries? So does the young marshal like sweet pastries or not?
"The Last General ......"
Seeing his very embarrassed appearance, I felt that I was making things difficult.
"Okay, don't embarrass you. β
I couldn't help but smile as I prepared to line up with the long line.
"Look at the horses waiting for me here!"
Hearing this, the guard was slightly stunned, and immediately spoke out to dissuade him:
"Childe, let's let the last general go......"
How can there be a reason for the court officials to line up to buy things like ordinary people?
"Do you know if you should buy sweet or not?"
I knew what he was thinking, so I just threw the question out.
The guard was stunned for a while, if this was bought by mistake, what would happen if the young marshal was angry?
In the end, the guard could only say discouragedly:
"The last general should stay here and wait for the childe. β
I almost couldn't close my mouth with a smile, bowed my head slightly, and then stabbed my hands into the pile.
This shop is indeed very popular, looking at this long stream of people, I also muttered a little that it would probably be more than half an hour when it was my turn, so I simply took Na Ganning's book and looked at it.
I looked down and looked at it seriously, and for some reason there began to be a faint discussion around me, which was only half a cup of tea, and the sound of discussion became more and more restless, and the eyes around me seemed to be more and more......
"This is an official, isn't it?"
"Which official is he in the Yamen?"
"This Lang Jun looks so handsome......"
"I've never seen an official in the same place as us civilians. β
"Is he waiting for the Ihosai pastry with us?"
"Oh, look, look, he's looking at us......"
......
At this time, I noticed that I heard the voices of discussion around me, and remembered that I was still wearing a public uniform, so it was no wonder that there was so much discussion.
I couldn't help but smile indifferently, I didn't care about this, if no one continued to look down at the book in my hand, this Gan Ning really still has some skills, he mentioned some strategic points to deal with Nan Chen in the book, or to the point, quite a few things to think about.
"I don't know the name of this official?"
This commotion still alarmed the steward of Yihe Zhai, and now he suddenly saw an official in official uniform also lined up behind the crowd and was scared out of a cold sweat, which will say that it is because of the name of Yihe Zhai's pastries in Luoyang, which I don't know will think that Yihe Zhai does not know how to be hospitable, and dares to snub the important officials of the government, because in this Luoyang City, I have never seen a high-ranking official do such a thing that damages his identity!
This offends the government, won't it cause trouble for the owner?
The steward hurried over and bowed, and when he greeted me, he did not get me to respond in time, but said that I was angry, and was busy and anxious to sincerely apologize, and said:
"It's all to blame for the clumsy eyes of the little one, snubbing the official, what does the official master command, even if he shows it, the little one can do it with all his heart!"
Fang Cai was a little distracted by the paperwork, so he did not respond to the steward in time, and when he noticed it, he saw that the person was already standing beside me with a panicked face, and he didn't dare to breathe.
"Are you the steward of Ihosai?"
"Ah, it's the little one, what does the official command, just show it. β
"Oh, I'm sorry for the rudeness. β
"Don't dare, don't dare, it's the small ones who don't wait well, and invite a lot of officials, don't be like the small ones, and be lenient!"
"The steward is polite, in Xia Gaochen, I originally heard that the pastries made by Guizhai have a good reputation in this Luoyang City, and I happened to pass by today, so I wanted to come and taste it. You didn't bother you, did you?"
It's actually Cheng Gaochen in the imperial history of the Northern Wei Dynasty?!
As soon as the steward heard my name, his face suddenly turned pale, and his whole body began to tremble.
How scary am I, to scare people like this?
"Gao, Gao Yushi can respect the small shop, it is an honor to despise the store, but if Gao Yushi likes it, the small one will immediately come to offer ......"
The butler's extremely respectful words actually made me hear the meaning of coercion and persecution.
Obviously, I am the one who coerces and persecutes others!
In a moment, I felt that the eyes of the people around me had changed, and they had become complicated and full of anxiety......
"Are you afraid of me?"
"Don't dare!"
The steward's head was lowered.
I was just trying to buy some delicious pastries for my loved ones, but things seemed to get more complicated.
Yes, because I did something that dignitaries would never do and should not do, and when all the unreasonable actions appeared, wouldn't they be met with strange eyes and inexplicable accusations?
And high-ranking officials and nobles are born to be served, and they should not do the heavy work that only those inferior people do!
It was true that I was not thinking about it for a while, but I didn't care about the strange stares of the people around me, and whatever they wanted to say, they were left to go.
"Steward, I heard that the head of Guizhai once set up a rule, 'the pastry is not ready for a short time, and the customers will be treated equally when they come first', yes or no?"
The steward nodded hurriedly and agreed:
Indeed, it is. β
"That's it, as the so-called local customs, I want to buy Guizhai pastries, then I should also do it according to the rules of Guizhai, first come, first come, the former buy first, only to be considered equal!"
This steward can be regarded as having served many dignitaries and nobles, and he has never seen such a person, so he can't help but speculate about his thoughts, coupled with the panic in his heart after knowing Gao Chen's origin, it will inevitably make Yihe Zhai suffer a catastrophe, and the steward will not dare to snub Gao Chen easily.
The steward was busy bowing down again, and almost knelt down to pray, and said in a supplicating tone:
"Gao Yushi has shown it, and the small ones are all followed. β
Looking at the submissive appearance of this steward, it seems that my identity still scares the steward, for fear that I am here to cause trouble.
Hey, was it because I did something inappropriate and unsuitable because I did something inappropriate and unworthy of the people?
"Today, it is Gao Chen's official uniform that has caused so many incidents. If Gao Chen hadn't come in a public uniform, would the steward still be like this?"
The steward was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.
"Villain, this ......"
I couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and immediately reached out and helped the steward up.
"The steward doesn't need to worry, Gao Chen has no other intentions, the matter has come to this point, it is useless to force it to stay, Gao Chen will come to visit after changing this official uniform another day. β
After speaking, he couldn't help but sigh slightly, turned around and planned to leave.
"Gao Yushi, please stay. β
Behind me, someone suddenly called out to me, and when I looked back, I saw a kind-faced, gentle and polite old man looking at me with a smile on his face. And when the steward saw him, he addressed him by the head of the house.
It turned out that this was the head of the house and the hostess of this shop.
Since he is an elder, he naturally has to come to pay a visit according to the rites.
"Old lady, the junior Gao Chen is polite. β
The female head of the family not only has good craftsmanship, but also has a generous heart.
I saw the old man bow slightly, and he also returned a salute, saying:
"The stewardship is not clear, there are inappropriate things, and there are many unreasonable things, please don't be surprised by Gao Yushi. β
"Why, it's Gao Chen who is so abrupt, but he has filled in a lot of trouble for Guizhai. β
The gentle smile on the female head of the family became stronger, and she looked at it with great admiration for a long time, and then proposed:
"If Gao Yushi doesn't dislike it, please go to the tea shed for a while, so that the old body can be the host. β
I know that this is the best solution given by the old man, which is not only the kindness of the old man, but also the humble acceptance of it.
"In this way, Gao Chen will be disturbed!"
The old man greeted the guests with a smile, personally invited the guests into his tea shed, and entertained them with good words and tea. I am grateful for the kindness of the old lady, and I have become more and more polite and humble to the old lady.
"But I didn't expect that today's small shop would welcome distinguished guests, and it was shining. β
"The old lady is polite, this is all because of the name of the expensive pastries in Luoyang, and when I passed by, I smelled the fragrance, and Gao Chen came with the fragrance, and it was not exempt from vulgarity!"
"Gao Yushi also loves pastries, I don't know what kind of taste I like, and the old body can recommend one or two for Gao Yushi. β
"The old lady has excellent craftsmanship, Gao Chen has already heard of it, and now she can be recommended by the old lady, and the inner son is blessed. β
"Oh, it turns out that Gao Yushi is here for Mrs. Zun. β
Hearing this, I didn't feel a slight blush, a slight shy smile, and said:
"My wife has always liked to eat almond peach crisp, but the peach crisp bought is not too sweet, or it is not crispy, after all, it is difficult to agree, Gao Chen heard that Yi He Zhai is famous, and has already intended to visit in person, today I happened to meet the old lady, and it is also God to fulfill Gao Chen's heart. β
It's easy to ask for priceless treasures, and it's rare to have a lover.
The old lady didn't expect that this handsome and resolute young Northern Wei official was still a person who was so affectionate to his wife, just to buy his wife's favorite pastries, he did not hesitate to condescend to the pastry shop to buy them, which is really commendable.
According to Gao Chen, what he wants is sweet but not greasy, refreshing and crispy almond peach crisp.
"Mrs. Zun's preference, the old man has a bottom in his body and mind, and he personally prepares pastries for Mrs. Zun on behalf of the old man!"
Because of her advanced age, the old lady no longer makes pastries by herself, and leaves them to her sons and daughters-in-law.
"Eh, how dare you bother the old lady......"
I was about to make a statement, but the old lady refused.
"Just as the old man is the people of Luoyang City, thank Gao Yushi for punishing the traitor and eliminating the evil without virtue. β
The old lady is talking about my killing of those traitors and lawbreakers, the judgment of the case in Xing Prison, and the various actions of enforcing the law for the public and asking for the people's lives.
The old lady is also a person who knows right and wrong.
"That junior might as well be respectful. β
The old lady smiled gently, then bowed slightly to me, and slowly walked out of the tea shed.
Looking at the back of the old lady leaving, I became more and more convinced: Heaven is clear, and right and wrong are at ease in the hearts of the people.
