199 Subordinate Officers

There is a delicate balance between my mother and the prime ministers, just like Dugu Shao, Cui Mingde, me and Ah Huan.

On the day of the performance, Dugu Shao had already relented and was going to come to me, but after his mother Yuguang Shunmen read Mulan riding, he didn't appear alone for several days - think about it, Ah Huan and I relied on nothing more than Mulan riding, and not waiting for us to help, my mother first opened her mouth to let Dugu Shao ride Mulan alone, depending on her meaning, I am afraid that Mulan riding will be customized, and it will be used as a forbidden guard.

Dugu Shao's behavior that day seemed to be risky, but if you think about it carefully, if she fails, the big deal is that she goes out of the palace and goes home, and no longer cares about this unrighteous Mulan ride, and once she succeeds, Dugu Shao has her wish, and since then she has picked the contradiction between her and Tuan'er in the open, and is not afraid that Tuan'er will chew her tongue in front of her mother behind her back, and she doesn't owe me and Ah Huan favors, and pinched our handle in vain, which is really killing three birds with one stone.

I don't have to think about it too much, I know that this is Cui Er's idea, sometimes I think Ah Huan is already the smartest person, but when I meet Cui Mingde, I feel that even Ah Huan is compared to her, I really want someone to tie her up, cut her head, and see what it looks like inside - isn't it a few brains longer than others, or the brains are extra thick than ordinary people? Otherwise, they are both less than twenty years old, how can there be such a big difference between people? And such a talented person can really endure his temperament, stay in the palace for the rest of his life, and be a female official in obscurity? Everyone in the world has selfish desires, and Cui Mingde really doesn't want anything except his family?

I've been living in the palace all the time, and if my mother doesn't mention it, I won't go out. Fortunately, Baisunyuan has never been built, and Ah Huan lives with me. September 15 was her birthday, and I came forward to buy a small banquet for her, and gave her a small banquet with the people around me, and did not dare to give her a big gift, so I only went to her mother's and sister's grave to see it in person, and asked someone to make up all the unrepaired places, and drew a shadow back, and I made a pair of concentric Fang Sheng, and quietly gave it to her.

Ah Huan cried at the first sight of the picture, not the kind of forbearance crying she usually used to, she threw herself into my arms and cried and gasped, she was particularly enthusiastic that night, and when I got up in the morning, I couldn't climb the window, or slipped out of the side door.

At the beginning of October, the Holy Driver was fortunate to be in the Eastern Capital, and Ah Huan, Shouli, Zheng Bo and I were among them. My mother put my car at the head of the princess's car, and from time to time on the road sent someone to call me to her car to talk, accompany her to see the wife, eat, ride horses, watch the palace people kick and have fun, and constantly sent some small rewards: either send someone to give me a dish or two during dinner, or allow me to occupy a small courtyard when I stay in the post house, or suddenly remember, ask someone to send me a comb, a small bead or two, and once summon Ni Nishi and other princes of the domain to accompany them, and discuss Zoroastrianism, Nestorianism, When the teachings of the Morni religion were struck, I don't know which heartstrings were touched, and I was given ten peacock horses.

My mother treated me like this, but she had a different attitude towards Zheng Bo. The horses were originally self-guided according to their family grades, but this time the mother specially ordered the horses to follow the order of the princess, Zheng Bo was sent to the horse pile, my group of uncles, aunts and grandfathers all have more than five grades of real jobs, but Zheng Bo is a lord with high power and light power. I don't know what kind of mood he was in when he was in the caravan, but all the way to the eastern capital, he was both detached and polite to me, except for three routine times a day in the morning, noon and evening to ask me about my life, the rest of the time there was hardly a person.

After my mother gave me an order from the Eastern Capital, she gave me a mansion, which was located opposite the imperial city, on the bank of Luoshui, not far from Shangyang Palace and the palace - usually the first place, most of them were rebuilt with the old mansion without officials, but my mother was determined to build a large number of buildings, so it would not be completed until January, so I took the opportunity to rely on my mother, and lived in the Eastern Capital Palace with her and Li Dan. There used to be five old palaces in the southwest of the palace, and now they are slightly repaired, and they are even made into a piece, which is the Baisun Courtyard of the Eastern Capital, where Ah Huan took Shouli, Li Sheng's sons, and Li Bin's sons all lived in it, and I lived in Lichuntai.

In the first two months of arriving in the Eastern Capital, the court and the central government were still calm, and my mother did not make any major moves except for using the treasury to set up a temple and a temple for my father, selecting the world's eminent monks to translate and copy the scriptures according to the usual practice, and donating fat powder money to repair the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple in Longmen and pray for blessings. The emperor was more established, and the Tibetans and Turks all committed crimes, but at this time, there were famous generals Pei Xingjian, Cheng Wuting, and Heizhi Changzhi in the army, and Liu Renliang in the court, and there was no major trouble.

At the end of the month, my house in the eastern capital was completed, and I could only reluctantly bid farewell to Ah Huan's mother and son, and lived in the new house of Shangshanfang.

As if to show her affection for me, my mother not only ordered the Hun Tian Eunuch to calculate the auspicious day, but also sent someone from the Ministry of Rites to preside over the relocation ceremony, and gave me two dwarf slaves, two Silla maids, twenty official maids, and one piece of music, and also ordered in the name of Li Dan to prepare to visit my house in early February.

Although Miyagi is only more than ten miles away from my house, and the guests are my biological mother and "younger brother", it is not an easy task to take over, so I sent away the relatives and ministers of the Taishi and the Ministry of Rites who came to congratulate me, and even the sorrow of being separated from Ah Huan was not expressed, so I hurriedly convened the house to discuss the matter of welcoming the car.

Now I have subordinate officials: one family order, one cheng, one recorder, and more than ten deacons assigned by my mother to take charge of the fields and manors. These men will be in charge of my goods, my warehousing, my hospitality, my staff, and all my foreign affairs, but I have not seen them all.

I called all these people to the front of me to discover the problem, and in addition to the matter of the car, I mentioned the matter of the house. Fortunately, Ah Huan and Song Fuyou had drafted the charter in the past, so I roughly divided the envoys in the palace in the past, and my mind moved, and let Song and Feng discuss with the three subordinate officials to draw up a new general meeting of functions and a family rules of the princess's mansion.

Song Foyou is a few old people who went out of the palace with me, and it is not strange that I think that one is a problem, Song and Feng, two senior people, only stood with their hands and did not speak, and several junior ones echoed and applauded. The three subordinate officials and the principals were stunned, and the family commander Liu Houde was of the highest grade, and had no choice but to come out, and tactfully pointed out to me that there were many people in the house, and half of them were illiterate, and there were many of them who could only write their own names and read simple numbers—not the official script, but the simplified script used in the folk bookkeeping, which was said to be "too crude to enter the eyes of the nobles"—so that it was difficult for them to understand the meaning of these functions, and it would be difficult for them to memorize them.

I glanced at Liu Houde, according to his resume, he is forty-six years old this year, born in Guanzhong four surnamed Liu's side branch, in various counties have been a subordinate official for more than 20 years, successively served as six Cao, but also did a post officer, in charge of Caoyun, can be regarded as a year-old cadre, Zongzheng Temple will send such a person to me as a family order, absolutely in the face of his mother, but because he is old, it is inevitable that there is some prevarication and delay, and I am a young woman, the first time to listen to my orders, test one or two, but it is also reasonable.

It was not the first time I had encountered such a situation, and I wanted to be a grace and try to deter myself, but after thinking about it, I saw the person who accompanied me out of the palace and asked, "What do you think?"

Xiao Lang said: "Since it is the princess's order, it is a sword mountain and a sea of fire, and you have to do it, not to mention just reciting it?"

Feng Shiliang said: "Those who can carry well and quickly will be rewarded, and those who can't carry heavy penalties will be afraid who won't?"

Liu Houde listened to the two of them, with a smile on his face, and waited to hear the fairy say: "The concubine thinks that it is better to make these charters into songs, as the teachers did when they preach, so it will be easier to memorize them." Then he turned his head to look at me, and I knew that I had passed his temptation, but I was a little unhappy in my heart, and said lightly: "Then I made up two sets of ballads according to what they said, one for the job and the other for the family rules. This matter was presided over by Lao Liuling. The same is true for the matter of welcoming the car, you have a public agreement on a charter, who should be assigned what things, one by one, and the rewards and punishments are to blame. In the future, everything in the house can be done in this way. ”

Liu Houde smiled even more, without saying a word, he promised to give up, and when he was about to withdraw, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked me with a smile: "Do you want to report to the horse for such a big event?"

When I was mentioned by him, I remembered that I didn't seem to have heard from Zheng Bo for more than ten days. (. Just Love)
