Chapter 143: Daily
At the end of September, it was not so hot, and the pergola in the courtyard of Mrs. Liu was removed, and tables and chairs were placed under the trees.
Liu Chunyang stood still on the side, quietly waiting for Old Lady Liu to finish listening.
"Now you know everything about the capital, right?" Old Lady Liu didn't let him wait, nor did he stop the violinist, and said directly.
Liu Chunyang said: "I don't know. ”
Old lady Liu snorted and said, "It's strange that you don't know, it's not strange that Governor Wu doesn't know, what are you doing going to Liudao Quanshan Social School every day?"
Liu Chunyang said: "Read." "I was about to tell my grandfather that everyone wanted to rebuild the thatched hut of Zhizhitang, and everyone donated some money." ”
Old lady Liu said: "What kind of money to donate, you can't spend it like this if you have money, this kind of thing is to find the prefect of Wu, whoever pushes it down will repair it, he can't ask for it." ”
Liu Chunyang said: "It's not to repair this for... She... Your Highness, it's just that we all read, so I'm still willing everyone to contribute, so it's also comfortable. ”
Old lady Liu waved his hand: "I don't bother to care about you, let alone use money without money, you tell me if you don't tell me no, it's the same." ”
Regarding the use of money, the grandfather and grandson have not made it clear to each other so far, Liu Chunyang pretended not to have this matter, and Mrs. Liu also pretended not to know, this is the first time to point it out.
Liu Chunyang hesitated.
Old Lady Liu had already sat up straight and frowned, "I don't care about others, I'm going to ask you, how long do you plan to study at home?" Why haven't you returned to the capital?"
Liu Chunyang said: "Grandfather's body is not not good. ”
"You are not a filial son, the sky curses me in the daytime. Old lady Liu scolded, "Don't pretend to be crazy and stupid with me, we all know in our hearts that now that everything is settled, it's time for you to go back." ”
Liu Chunyang raised his head and said, "It is precisely because the dust has settled that my grandson feels that I don't need to go back, and I will not be an official." ”
Old lady Liu said: "Say you're stupid, you are..." stopped halfway through the scolding, took a deep breath, and looked solemn, "Chunyang, the most important thing now is not to be an official, but to be a person." ”
Behave?
Liu Chunyang looked at Mrs. Liu in confusion.
"Her Royal Highness Emperor Ji has returned to the court after this wave of torture, what she needs is not officials, but people. Old lady Liu said, "There has never been a shortage of officials in the court, what is lacking is her people, and now the dust has settled, and it is also a twist and turn." Looking at Liu Chunyang, "Didn't the kid of the Zhang family tell you about the current situation in the court?"
Liu Chunyang listened carefully, but he didn't blurt out an answer to Old Lady Liu's sudden question.
"I haven't received any letter from Young Master Liantang recently. He said.
"If the kid of the Zhang family doesn't write a letter, he won't be righteous if he eats alone. Old lady Liu muttered, and did not ask whether Liu Chunyang's words were true or false, but said solemnly, "I will offend and say that Xue Qing is a very powerful kid, and he finally set things right, but it is not easy to be an emperor, especially when she returns to the court halfway through the people, those ministers are very good at bullying people." ”
The little emperor before was just an ornament, he had seen what the courtiers were like, Liu Chunyang nodded, the little emperor still had the support of Qin Tangong, she is back in the court now, and there is no one...
"Fellow townspeople, fellow classmates, fellow students. Old lady Liu patted the armrest, word by word, "It's her who can be used in the new court, you are indispensable, do you want her to invite you?" ”
......
......
"Liantang said, I haven't seen His Highness for half a month. ”
"The court meeting is presided over by Wang Xiangye. ”
Now Chen Sheng has been convicted of being the same party as Song and Yuan, and no one in the DPRK can compete with him. ”
"It is understandable that His Highness is seriously injured and recuperating, but it is said that those who can see His Highness are allowed by the Prime Minister Wang. ”
On Liudaoquan Mountain, several young people sat around the rocks, with scrolls scattered in their hands or around them, and spoke in low voices.
Leting looked at Liu Chunyang.
"So your grandfather is right, His Highness has no one available in the court. He said, "We can't go to others, you have an official status and a Beijing official is qualified to enter the court." ”
Liu Chunyang put down the scroll in his hand and said, "We don't have any qualifications, so we can see her during the court." "The official position is low.
Le Ting smiled slightly and said, "Chunyang, you are wrong, she is qualified to see you." ”
Liu Chunyang was stunned, and then suddenly he was stunned.
She is the emperor, and she is about to become the emperor, even if Wang Lieyang gets power again, can she cover the sky with one hand, the whole world is hers, how can the courtiers not see it.
What's more, she is Xue Qing, Emperor Ji can be so difficult and can be a few twists and turns, what is it difficult to control the court, take your time.
"I know you're feeling a little overwhelmed right now. Le Ting said, looking at the scroll in his hand, this was one of the books that Xue Qing gave to him when he went to Guozijian to study.
At that time, I didn't expect that she would never come back as soon as she went, and she would not come back in the future, and it was extremely difficult to become an emperor on patrol.
No, she came back once.
Leting retracted his distraction.
"She is no longer Xue Qing, she is Emperor Baozhang, no longer our classmate, and our king. ”
"We were very familiar with her, but we became strangers and didn't know what to do with ourselves. ”
Yes, it is precisely because of this that he does not want to return to Beijing, Liu Chunyang is a little stunned, and so are the others, these days they are both excited and uneasy, they seem to be happy and inexplicably frightened, and feel that the whole life has become unreal.
The Son of Heaven once had classmates with them, had fun together, drank flowers and wine and visited the Qinglou together......
"Actually, it's very simple, when we got together to study, we made it clear. Leting said.
The teenagers looked at him.
"The Son of Heaven is heroic, the article teaches Er Cao, everything is inferior, only the reading is high, the court is Tian Shelang, and the twilight is the Tianzi Hall, there will be no seeds, and the man should be self-reliant. Leting said, "We study to achieve the world, poor is good, who the Son of Heaven is, we don't change our ambitions, it is the Ming Jun who assists, and if there is mediocrity, then admonish, so, what is at a loss?"
The teenagers laughed.
"Leting really deserves to be able to distinguish spring and autumn. ”
"Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years. ”
"No wonder they all say that Leting is the Dinghai Divine Needle of our Liudao Quanshan Society. ”
"Well, I heard that two more Confucian teachers are going to give lectures recently. ”
"This is the place where His Royal Highness the Emperor Ji studied, and it can be regarded as a hidden residence, who doesn't want to preach and teach here, how many people in the world are eyeing it. ”
"But they can come, but they don't want to expel us. ”
"Youleting is worry-free, and Leting has recently read through the poetry, right? It's been almost three or four years. ”
Laughter and frolic sounded in the forest, accompanied by the mountain spring that tinkled and jumped on the side, sweeping away the panic and restraint of these days.
Liu Chunyang also laughed.
He probably hadn't been so happy in a long time, yes, don't think too much about it.
Although he is of little use and can't help much in the court, it's always okay to run errands.
......
......
Ten miles outside Chang'an Mansion, the people who saw them off stopped and watched Liu Chunyang's carriage go away under the escort of dozens of people.
Master Liu San was surrounded by everyone, and there was no parting sentimentality, he was very excited.
"It's really expensive for my father to let so many people escort Chunyang into Beijing. He said.
"It's not a broken bill. Someone next to him said with a little sourness, "Your Chunyang is more than your monthly money." ”
Of course, no one knows how much except for the housekeeper, everyone only knows that Young Master Chunyang uses money to treat Old Master Liu with money.
Master Liu San said: "That's because Chunyang is an official in the court, and he has to entertain a lot, and it's not easy to be an official." "Reserved twisted beard," his father said, Chunyang is a great talent as an official, and he is indispensable in the court, which urged him to return to Beijing. ”
In the Liu family's mansion, Old Lady Liu sat down with a few juniors who were in charge of the house, of course he would not go to see Liu Chunyang in person.
"Grandfather, my brother is really a great talent to be an official?" Liu Wu'er interjected with tea on the side, "How big an official can you be?" How long will it take? Can you catch up with my son-in-law?"
has an elder brother who is a big official, and the husband's court can be higher.
Old lady Liu ignored her, and only said to those people: "The money has to be prepared." ”
"Don't worry, the master is fully prepared, as many as you want. ”
"The people who serve are also carefully selected, the Confucian master has been taught in the court, and the mother who serves is a female official released by the palace. ”
So he still relied on money to get through the official road, but he felt weird, Liu Wu'er pricked up his ears.
Old lady Liu nodded solemnly: "Chunyang doesn't have any skills......
Liu Wu'er stared at the round eyes, what about the talent of the official?
“..... But it's this nothingness that is his greatest ability. Old lady Liu said, looking at everyone, "For the position of the emperor, our Liu family must fight for it." ”
Wow! Liu Wu'er stretched out her hand to cover her mouth and blocked back the exclamation, it turned out that it was for this! What the people here said again, her ears were buzzing, her ears were buzzing, her eyes were shining.
Then, doesn't it mean that she Liu Wu'er is going to be the uncle of the country!
......
......
Liu Chunyang's carriage entered the capital, and the capital was as noisy and prosperous as before.
The four doors are wide open and there is no inventory, there are no soldiers galloping back and forth on the street, in the golden autumn of October, the people are shoulder to shoulder, the shops are full of colorful flags, and the restaurants and tea shops are overcrowded.
The night is even more lively, many powerful people come and go, and there are songs and dances that have not been seen for a long time.
The royal residence is one of them.
In the courtyard full of lanterns, the prostitutes sing and dance like a fairyland, and the glasses of wine are staggered and laughing.
"That's the hard thing. Li Huixian sat beside Wang Lieyang and said with a radiant face, "What should be done with the articles that Your Highness wrote in our building at the beginning? Should you return them to Your Highness, or will you hang them out again?"
Wang Lieyang leaned on the pillow, knocked his knee with one hand, half-squinted at the song and dance, and said, "Of course it is hung out." ”
Li Huixian said: "Will that offend His Highness?"
Wang Lieyang smiled and said, "How can this be called offense? She did it, and the emperor who was born in the people is like this, leaving traces everywhere, can it be eliminated? How is it possible?" ”
"Xiangye, eat pears. Chunxiao sent a slice of pear over.
Wang Lieyang opened his mouth to eat, and then said: "What's more, His Royal Highness the Emperor Ji is the top talent, this is a good reputation." He opened his eyes and smiled at Li Huixian, "But all the good reputation of His Royal Highness the Emperor Ji must be vigorously promoted, so that everyone in the world knows that our Royal Highness is a perfect and good emperor, and it is a blessing for the people of the world to have an emperor with a good reputation." ”
A good reputation is sometimes a rope that binds Li Huixian how he didn't understand what Wang Lieyang meant, and giggled.
"Our Xiangye is the best. She said happily, "No one in this court can miss you." ”
Those people have fallen up and down, only Wang Xiangye is still there.
Wang Lieyang squinted and smiled without saying a word, and Chun Xiao, who was sitting next to him, suddenly raised his head with a sigh.
"What about me? I have an emperor's benefactor, is it a good reputation or a bad reputation for His Royal Highness the Emperor?" she said timidly, obviously knowing that this was not a good reputation, "What should I do, Your Highness won't kill me, right?"
Wang Lieyang and Li Huixian both laughed.
"You little thing, who cares about you. ”
"You don't always have to say it yourself. ”
"It's okay to take it out, what kind of big deal is it, how can His Royal Highness the Emperor be so intolerable?"
The two of you are talking and laughing at each other, and two men came forward with wine glasses and called Xiangye.
"Regarding a case from the new newspaper, the owner wants to ask the prime minister for guidance. One whispered.
"Xiangye, there are too many people in Song and Yuan over there in the Criminal Department, and the affairs are complicated and busy, and there are a few people who want to work for Xiangye. Another said.
Wang Lieyang hummed and didn't retreat, leaving them to speak.
Li Huixian took a few steps back, Chunxiao lowered his head and concentrated on peeling pears, singing and dancing and whispering during the banquet.
The prosperity and liveliness of the capital, for the people recuperating in the deep palace, although only a few palace walls and a few streets are separated, they are also far away.
Go to bed early and get up early, eat and sleep and eat, this is Xue Qing's daily life, a few days ago, after the research of the imperial doctors, and the consideration of Wang Xiangye and other courtiers, she can be allowed to go to the imperial garden for a walk, as for the court, she is not in a hurry.
Of course, the court affairs will still be sent regularly, read and listened to by Wang Xiangye or the eunuchs, and then Xue Qing will cover the jade seal, and it will be fine.
At present, through the reports of the officials, it can be seen that the court is stable, the border battles have been won one after another, the remnants of the Qin Tang have been pursued smoothly, and God bless the Great Zhou All the best.
The job of Emperor Ji is still very easy.
After a good night's sleep, Xue Qing rolled on the big dragon bed before calling the palace maids to wait for him.
Yilai stretched out his hand to open his mouth, sat down at the dining table refreshed, and when the imperial food was passed one by one, Cicada Yi came in with a medicine box.
After Xue Qing said that after calming down, she took out a medicine bag from the medicine box: "This is the pill to be used today." ”
Xue Qing looked at the medicine bag and said with a smile: "Lonely, I like to take pills the most, it's much more interesting than decoction." ”
In particular, the pills with the Chichido symbol painted on the medicine bag.
What's new out there?
