Chapter 115: Zuo Dongge acted according to the plan
Just thinking about it, the maid reported at the door that Zuo Dongge Zuo Gongzi arrived, saying that he was here to accompany them for breakfast. Everything is ready for the cook.
Besides, he walked out of the house first, signaling Xiao Nier to go out later. But I saw Zuo Dongge wearing a brocade robe and jade belt, and thick-soled boots on his feet, it was really a jade tree in the wind, although he was nearly middle-aged, he was still a beauty killer.
"Brother Xu, did you sleep well, if you are well rested and willing to go out for a walk, I will accompany you to the neighborhood. Zuo Dongge said with a smile.
"Well, I want to go to the Imperial City and see it for a long time. Besides, he said.
"The imperial city is the first choice for many people to come to Fengyang, in fact, it is far less than many years ago, many places are in disrepair, the imperial court always says that the funds are insufficient, and the money that should be allocated for restoration is always not in place. Zuo Dongge said.
"The emperor is still short of silver?" Xiao Nier asked stupidly.
"Sister, you don't know, the emperor who has the most silver in the world, and the emperor who lacks the most silver is also the emperor, the expenses are too big, and he can't make ends meet. ”
"But isn't all the money in the world from the emperor's family?" Xiao Nier was still puzzled, and asked weakly.
Of course, the emperor is happy to think so, but no one in the world will agree. The emperor is just guarding his own small treasury, and if the silver is not enough, he has to fight famine with the household every day. ”
Xiao Nier shook her head, she didn't understand these things. Besides, he just laughed when he heard it, he was also very familiar with the history of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Jiajing because of his belief in Taoism, he did things every day, and spent money not like flowing water, but like the Yangtze River, and as a result, he was seriously overspending and making ends meet, which also directly led to the fact that the Shenzong Dynasty was always poor and ranciful, and distorted a Shenzong into a miser and a collector.
A penny to force a hero to death, that's the truth.
Zuo Dongge seemed to be talking to himself, but he was talking to him: "If you go to the Zhongdu Palace today, you might as well try your luck." ”
Besides, smiling, I looked at Zuo Dongge and didn't know if it was okay.
After breakfast, Zuo Dongge accompanied Xiao Nier to go out to play, accompanied by a few family members.
Xiao Wanli didn't follow, he went out early alone early. He wanted to find a place to study the Rainstorm Pear Flower Nails, and tried to create a pen barrel type and a fan-type hidden weapon.
He was very familiar with Fengyang City and knew that there were many skilled craftsmen in the city, so he decided to visit them one by one. Besides, a few drawings were in his arms.
The imperial city of Fengyang is located on the Phoenix Mountain, which is to occupy the shape and luck of the Phoenix Mountain.
As the place where Taizu Longxing is prosperous, there are still a lot of tourists every year, most of them are scholars and businessmen who go out to study, and they want to worship here, but also want to get some light of the real dragon. The scenery of Phoenix Mountain is beautiful and charming, and locals also like to come here to enjoy the scenery in their spare time.
Moreover, a group of people took a carriage all the way to the imperial city, looking from afar, it was splendid, and it was like arriving at the imperial city of Nanjing, in fact, the buildings of the two imperial cities adopted the same scale and style.
"Why did Brother Xu come to the Imperial City, it wouldn't be just to see the Imperial Palace, right? Zuo Dongge smiled and said in a tentative tone.
The three of them sat in a wide carriage of the Zuo family, and there were family members riding horses outside. Xiao Nier was relieved to see that Zuo Ling did not follow, and did not speak, but just watched the scenery outside the window.
As a citizen of the Fengyang Realm, Xiao Nier came here for the first time, and her eyes were full of things she had never seen before, which attracted her.
"I know that the architectural style of the two palaces is similar, but after all, there are still subtle differences, which ordinary people can't see and don't want to pay attention to. However, the foolish brother has an ambition, that is, to restore the true image of the history of the founding of the original dynasty, so he must experience it himself, carefully inspect it, and study it carefully. ”
Moreover, it is like a rigorous historian, and he is boastful. Zuo Dongge was confused, what's the matter with this little brother? How did this dynasty open the country has anything to do with you? Are you sick?
"Brother Xu is rigorous in his studies, and his high intentions are really a model for my generation, and I admire him. What do you need, just open your mouth, it's not me to boast, there is nothing in Fengyang that I can't do in Zuodongge. Zuo Dongge's chest snapped.
"Zuo Gongzi, my son-in-law lied to you about his studies or anything, you really believe it. Xiao Nier suddenly spoke, and her words were shocking.
Besides, she was really startled, her head was faintly sweating, and she looked at Xiao Nier suspiciously, thinking that she really knew her purpose. Zuo Dongge stared at Xiao Nier with great interest.
"What kind of study tour, all the people who sit in the clinic are floating clouds, the main purpose of my son-in-law is to find a female pet, to the palace to see, is to learn from the appearance of the inner palace courtyard, go home and build a set as it is, and then also get a three palaces and six courtyards or something. Xiao Nier said seriously.
"This ...... I ......" Besides, he was speechless, when did he have this ambition, it was too lofty and outrageous, and he couldn't do it at all.
"In this way, Miss Xiao should also be a person in these three palaces and six courtyards, which palace is it?"
"I can't enter the palace, that is, the level of the concubine, the main palace lady has already been selected, if Miss Zuo wants to join, she has to start from the bottom first, and make a change of clothes first." ”
Zuo Dongge was stunned at first, and then laughed: "Miss Xiao is so humorous, interesting and interesting. ”
Besides, at this time, I can't wait to open the window and jump out, and it is better to face another car running over me. No matter how bad it is, there is a crack in the ground to get into, and it will be done, it's crazy.
"If that's the case, it's not meaningful to look at the palace for reference, one day let's go to see the mansion of General Tang He, it's the most suitable for Brother Zuo. Zuo Dongge's cultivation is extremely high, knowing that Xiao Nier's words are squeezing his sister, but he doesn't care.
As Emperor Taizu's hair and son, and the founder of the country, and one of the only few lucky ones who slipped through the net in the Great Purge, Tang He's kung fu in dealing with the world and avoiding danger can be described as superior, and his trick is to take concubines, constantly taking concubines. As a result, there were hundreds of wives and concubines, more than the concubines of Taizu at that time.
Emperor Taizu took a look at it and forgot it, this master was really going to die of a drunken dream, so he didn't bother to knife him.
"I said Brother Zuo, don't climb up her pole, where is there such a thing. "Besides, it's really embarrassing, and I don't have a place to shame.
"What's this, a talented man is romantic, it has been the same since ancient times, you are a talented man and a divine doctor, what Tang He and the general can do, why can't you do it?" Zuo Dongge continued to squeeze right, ignoring Xiao Nier's disdainful eyes.
"You two, you talk slowly, I'll go out to breathe. "Besides, if you open the door, you have to go down.
"You sit down, whether it's true or not, we won't talk about your lofty ideals. Xiao Nier held it down.
Talking and laughing all the way, I have unconsciously arrived outside the imperial city.
The imperial city is not the same as the imperial palace, the imperial city is the imperial palace plus the major departments of the central government, the capitals of Nanjing and Fengyang were built early, and even the prime minister's mansion and the imperial history platform are readily available, which is different from the imperial city in Beijing. The capital city is to build another city outside the imperial city, and this three-story structure is basically the fixed specifications of the capital city of the past dynasties.
After the three of them got out of the car, they saw that the outside of the imperial city was already full of tourists. The stall setters and tourists are intertwined, running around to sell things, and there are painters holding painting clips to solicit portraits of tourists.
"Emperor Taizu's favorite tofu brain, a big bowl of five cents, and enough ingredients. ”
"The robe that Hong Wuye wore back then, a set of one or two silver. ”
Besides, he was startled when he heard the shouting, what is this, Zhu Yuanzhang hates others mentioning him as a monk the most, so he taboos words such as bald head and brightness, and those who touch it will die. Now there are people who sell robes, if they have to be wiped out in those years.
"A few sons, Hong Wuye's royal pen, come to one. A man with a banner squeezed in front of the three of them, holding it up and shouting.
"Get out, go cool. A member of the Zuo family grabbed him by the collar and carried him out.
"The Zuo family, it's amazing to be rich, why are you still bullying people. The banner seller rubbed his neck and muttered.
"Having money is amazing, what's the matter, believe it or not, I'll smash you to death with money!" The family waved a blanket containing money, which was so heavy that it could really kill people.
"Okay, Li Bao, don't make trouble, give him 100 wen as breakfast money. Zuo Dongge reprimanded softly.
"Boy, here you go!" Li Bao waved his hand, and a string of copper plates flew straight towards the man.
The man threw down the banner in a panic to pick it up, but he didn't receive it, and the money fell to the ground, broke the thread, and scattered in all directions, so he had to pick it up one by one.
"It's really unproductive. Xiao Nier said disdainfully.
"What did you say?" the man turned to look at him, his eyes glazed over.
"Say what's wrong with you being unproductive, you have hands and feet, and your body is good, why don't you work hard to make money, and you will be allowed to learn to crawl on the ground for a hundred yuan. ”
Xiao Nier was indignant because this person had no dignity and was of the same class as herself, and she couldn't help but feel ashamed of him.
"Boy, quickly pick up the money and leave, say what's wrong with you, is your skin itchy?"
"Let's go, girl, why be angry with this kind of person, you can't do it. Zuo Dongge pulled the situation as if he was walking forward, he knew that as long as he pulled the situation away, Xiao Nier would naturally follow.
"Who is this chick, so rushed?"
"This girl is so smart, you look at that little waist, you can hold a handful. ”
“……”
At the end, an old man from the Zuo family turned around and smiled bitterly: "A few people, keep virtue on your lips, be careful of misfortune from your mouth." This young lady is not something you can talk nonsense about. ”
Besides, when the man selling calligraphy and painting showed a fierce look, he almost rushed over, if it wasn't for Zuo Dongge's hand to hold him quickly, it would be difficult to guarantee that the person would not suffer a big loss today. Dare to threaten Xiao Nier, it's really a death.
"Brother, don't be angry, there are three sects and nine streams in Fengyang City, and there are all kinds of scum, so it's not strange. Seeing that his face was not good, Zuo Dongge hurriedly persuaded.
"What's the matter, you're angry, I just want to scold him. I don't mean anything else, don't be angry, okay?" said Xiao Nier, holding Besides's arm.
"He's not mad at you, he's going to beat that guy out to make you angry. ”
"I'm not angry. I can scold him to death with that kind of goods, and I don't have to do it at all. Shaw had a feel-good look.
Besides, I laughed, this Nizi is really spicy, I didn't see it before. Maybe it's really a master of scolding.
When I entered the imperial city, I felt a gloomy atmosphere, the bluestone road under my feet was cracked, the golden nail-headed gate that represented the royal majesty was also rusty everywhere, and the houses inside were also a little dilapidated, obviously, in disrepair.
It seems that the lack of funds in the imperial court is not a rumor, it is true, and the emperor's family is not easy to do.
