Chapter Forty-Nine: The Chrysanthemum Wine and Crab Feast (II)
Sure enough, I saw that Yun Xiang's eyes were dark and his expression was depressed.
"If my sister is not enough silver taels, my sister still has some, it is better to " At this time, Yun Miao said gently.
"No, you don't." Yun Xiang said faintly, glanced at Mu Yan and said dissatisfiedly, "Shen Muyan, I just want you to give the silver, just say it, whether to give it or not!" ”
"Give it, Miss Yun wants it, I'll give as much as I want." Knowing that he had said the wrong thing, Mu Yan hurriedly smiled.
"Hmph, that's pretty much it." When Yun Xiang heard this, he sat down and continued to eat and drink.
"Yun Xiang looks at your appearance as a bandit, even the Shaoqing of Dali Temple is afraid of you, and he is not worried that he will not be able to marry in the future." Seeing such a gift, I couldn't help but laugh.
"I won't be like this to others, Shen Muyan owes me a lot of medicine money, and it is only right for me to cheat him." Yun Xiang snorted, still resentful of the words just now that Mu Yan didn't open which pot to mention
"Oh? How so? At the beginning of the month, he also asked.
"In the past, when he was studying art in Fengzhou, every time he was injured in a fight with someone, he always climbed over the wall to ask me for medicine, and I didn't count the salary for helping him with medicine."
"You can't say that, I didn't work as a medicine man when you were studying medicine," Mu Yan cried and laughed: "Once I practiced acupuncture, I inserted it into my Yuanchi acupoint, if it wasn't for Dr. Mo rushing back, I probably wouldn't have come back to Anyang." ”
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, this is too nonsense!
At this time, Yun Xiang recalled that he was ashamed at the beginning, so he stuck out his tongue and apologized: "Didn't Master save me later, I won't also be punished and confined." ”
"Huh? Can you finally remember it now? Mu Yan raised his eyebrows, and this was satisfied.
The two of them came and went, and everyone couldn't help laughing during the banquet.
It was not until the sunset hung in the west that the early stage of the fog gradually dispersed. At the beginning of the banquet, Xiao Xiaoqing Dai was asked to go home first. When the banquet was over, Xu Shiheng sent her home. The two exchanged a few words at the door, and only entered the door at the beginning of the month.
And when they had entered the door, the good ones gathered together.
"Yue'er, my mother heard that Xu Gongzi asked you to visit Qiuyue Garden?"
"Yue'er, I heard your mother say that you are with the son of the Xu family today?"
"Miss, are you still having fun visiting Qiuyue Garden today?"
"Hehe, I didn't expect Miss to get along with Xu Gongzi so quickly."
"Haha, it seems that Miss and Na Xu Yushi are really related."
After a round, only Aunt Gui on the side didn't speak, but she also looked at the beginning of the month and smiled.
At the beginning of the month, he glanced at everyone and said calmly: "I didn't go shopping much, but then I met Yunxiang and them, and we had a banquet together." With that, he went back to his room
"Huh?" As soon as this remark came out, everyone had different expressions. I could only watch the beginning of the month before I entered the room and chattered again.
After entering the house at the beginning of the month, he breathed a sigh of relief, took out the jade pendant from his sleeve, and looked at it for a long time and recalled all the things on today's banquet, always with a faint smile on his face. In the evening, there was a knock on the door outside the room, "Yue'er, can you be in the room?" Can my mother go in? ”
At the beginning of the month, she came back to her senses and opened the door to look, Ying Ruolan smiled with a bowl of dim sum: "My mother brought you supper." Yue Yue smiled and said sideways: "Mother come in." ”
"Whoa."
Since it was Ying Ruolan knocking on the door, it was naturally not just a simple supper. Sure enough, halfway through the meal, Ying Ruolan hesitated and asked, "Yue'er, did you encounter anything uncomfortable in Qiuyue Garden today?" ”
Yue Yue was stunned, looked at Ying Ruolan and didn't respond, and said half-loudly: "Why does my mother ask that?" ”
"Didn't I just go back home and saw that you didn't have any expression on your face, so I thought"
"Mother doesn't have to worry, it's actually good." Knowing that Ying Ruolan had misunderstood, she also sneered at the beginning of the month.
Ying Ruolan looked at her suspiciously, and saw that her face was a little flushed, so she believed it a little.
Taking her hand, Ying Ruolan patted her gently and said, "Okay, my mother is afraid that you will be wronged." At the beginning, the Xu family refused to marry, and your father and I thought that this matter was over, and we planned to wait a year or two before finding a family for you, but now it seems that you should have some ideas in your heart, so we don't care about it. ”
The beginning of the month nodded, "Thank you mother and father for being considerate." ”
Ying Ruolan curled up the broken hair in her ear and said, "Silly boy, what is there to thank you for, it's just that the son of the Xu family knows about the marriage contract?" ”
Moon shook his head, "I don't know yet." ”
"Yue'er, if you really like it, we won't stop you. It's just that I'm still somewhat worried about the Xu family's previous refusal to marry, and I'm afraid that if you really marry the Xu family, you won't be wronged. ”
"Mother, I think about it, I want to see what Xu Gongzi thinks about this marriage contract, if he is not here, then I will not force anything. But if he doesn't refuse this offer, Yue'er still wants to try. ”
Ying Ruolan's eyes darkened when she heard this, and then she still showed her face and said: "It's okay, your father said it well, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, as long as Yue'er is okay, my mother is no problem." As he spoke, he cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and said, "It's late, you should rest early." ”
At the beginning of the month, he sent her out of the door, and today is over.
Following.
It was the first time since he arrived at the beginning of the month that he went to the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites to supervise.
"Lord Hang, please." Leading the way was a junior official from the Ministry of Officials, "Recently, the affairs of the Ministry of Officials have been busy, and Lord Squire has no time to take care of them. If Lord Hang needs to read the papers, tables and other things, he can tell the lower officials that Lord Shilang has explained to the lower officials to cooperate with Lord Hang. ”
"Yes, thank you." The moon nodded. Knowing that this is just perfunctory, I don't bother to debunk it.
Before going to the ministry, I asked my colleagues about this supervision at the beginning of the month. It is said that it is supervision, but in fact, it is just to go to the offices of the two ministries to flip through the documents and look at the recitals, and sometimes they don't even need to be there.
Because although the supervision of the imperial history has the right to inspect hundreds of officials, because the grade is too low, if there is no one to maintain it, it is very easy to offend the powerful. The emperor has no real power, so the post of Yushitai will naturally fall, and he will either live in nothing, or become a tool for one of the two parties to attack his opponent.
"What will be done with the administrative documents of the Ministry of Officials in previous years?" She asked, after a moment's thought.
The little official was shocked when he heard this, and glanced back at Yue Yue, with an unbelievable expression. Seeing the beginning of this month, he couldn't help frowning, "So? What did the officer say wrong? ”
The little official quickly reacted and said with a smile: "No, no, the administrative documents of previous years are all placed in the library hall, but I don't know why the adults asked about it." ”
"This official has just taken office, and he doesn't know much about the affairs of the ministry, so he wants to look at the administrative documents of previous years and learn a thing or two." Explained at the beginning of the month.
The little official nodded, and led the moon to the library.
When I arrived at the library library, I flipped through it at the beginning of the month, took out a copy of this year's document and asked, "The official wants to access this volume of documents, I don't know if it's possible?" ”
The little official bowed his head and said: "The documents in the museum are the embodiment of the administration of the ministry, and the adults are afraid that they cannot be taken rashly." ”
At the beginning of the month, he raised his eyebrows, "But how do I remember that the inspector of the imperial history has the right to access the documents and files of various temples at will, and he only needs to set up a certificate." ”
The little official was slightly shocked, probably because he didn't expect to be so familiar with these rules and regulations at the beginning of the month, "The lower officials are on errands in the Ministry of Officials, so they don't know much about the power of the Imperial Historical Tower. ”
At the beginning of the month, he hooked the corners of his mouth, and then he set up a voucher and took away a few volumes of documents. Next, the little official took the moon to patrol around the front office, and the beginning of the month asked some questions carefully before leaving the official to deploy the office.
Watching her leave, the little official's eyes couldn't help but darken, and he turned around and went to the back office. "My lord, the people have been sent away."
"Well, it's nothing, is it?" On the back hall, the head of the ministry was carefully wiping a jade Pixiu.
"The new priest took with him a few volumes of old papers. I also asked the villain a little about the ministry. ”
The head of the official department in the hall was stunned for a moment, looked up and said in confusion: "How many volumes of documents did you bring?" Brushing the mustache on the side of his mouth, he said thoughtfully: "Is it a prickly head?" ”
"The villain was also so worried at the time, but the lord wants to report this matter to Lord Squire?"
"No need. Be careful everywhere, even if it's a thorn, we're not afraid, but now in this officialdom, are you still afraid of her, a powerless and powerless petty official? With that, he waved his hand and let the little official go down.
