44. The status of the capital

This replaced Taifu happened to be pro-Tang family. And the new teacher for the Seventh Prince is from a civilian background...... Well, it must be a coincidence. Definitely!

Who called Taifu really made a mistake this time? You must know that Cui Heng wants to send the Seventh Prince out, mainly to express the royal position. Cui Heng himself couldn't go in person, and the Seventh Prince was the most favored among the children of the royal family. Only when he goes can he fully express the emperor's sincere concern, and the victims will be very, very grateful to Dade! Even if he died, he instructed his descendants: "It is not easy for the emperor, you have to serve the country and share the emperor's worries." "If it were another official, would it have such a powerful effect? Taifu couldn't even point this out in time, and asked the Seventh Prince to really go to the palace to intercede and flee the mission, and it was not unjust to be replaced.

When the Tang family boss heard that Taifu made a mistake this time, he was also very angry: "Is he old and confused? ”

"Not everyone is as assertive as you are!" The little boss was also very emotional, and patted his ass by the way.

The Tang family boss asked: "Where did Xie Dalang point to be an official?" ”

The little boss said: "Paint the city." ”

"Painting City?!" The Tang family boss was stunned. It is in the northwest of Daling, by the border, the name is picturesque, in fact, there are rocks everywhere, water sources are scarce, and the greenery is dotted and rare. No matter how familiar the people of the capital are with it, they also know a proverb: "Yi Niu begs for water in his belly!" "Yi Niu is a special product of the painting city, short in stature, the most drought-tolerant, and the amount of water is quite large. If you find water, you can drink ten ou at a time, and then survive without drinking for many months. It is said that its big belly dragged long to the ground, and it was full of water. But if you slaughter the ox and cut its belly open. There is no water bladder in it, but there is a large mass of sponge-like substance, which cannot be squeezed out if you want to squeeze water, so you have to make a fire and roast it slowly so that the water vapor can evaporate out. The so-called "Yi cow begging for water in the belly!" It is to describe a job that is difficult to do, grind time, or ridicule who is stingy, and start with money, such as a cow drinking water. It's hard to take it out again.

Who has nothing to do with running to the painting city? Do you want to go to the army?

"This is also Xie Dalang's own youthful vigor." The little boss explained. "When he traveled to the border, he experienced a skirmish, made a small contribution, and took in a servant. Really when the country rises and falls. He's responsible. He asked Ying himself to go to the border to guard. ”

The big man of the Tang family smiled: "This is a good thing. We've got to send him a gift. ”

"The congratulatory gift is not as good as that of the Seventh Prince." The little big guy said. "One inside and one outside, the upper and lower ones are called, and I can't wait to send the whole house away."

The big guy of the Tang family snorted.

"General Dongxun has to eat Xie Dalang's vinegar this time!" The little boss said again. "Who told people to go to the border to build military exploits, but he can't go?"

Yes, General Dongxun wants to defend the capital, and he can't go anywhere outside. For an ambitious general, this is really frustrating. But who knew that the little guy was talking about more than just this bottle of vinegar.

"No kidding." The Tang family boss said, "Jingnan Dao still takes care of it." Have the new recruits passed the post? ”

"Yes." The little boss took those worship stickers to show the Tang family boss.

It turned out that the new science and technology scholars were going to worship their teachers with a big stroke of the pen during the exam. This is called "worshipping the teacher". From now on, this teacher who has taken the jinshi is a banner of officialdom! You have to be the same villager as someone, study together, and chase the little girl together, that is, the Jinshi is not taken by the same person in the same year, and you are not the same family in the officialdom. You have to grow up with someone in the north and south, and the words you say can't be played together, and you can't see anyone when you sit separately in the examination room, but you are the same teacher that year, you went to worship the teacher together, and talked about the friendship of the same family, and it is the friendship of the brothers from then on! To be promoted and make a fortune, all of them must take care of each other. If you hurt the master and the brothers, you will be a traitor! Spit stars don't kill you.

That's why it's so important. The emperor was a little uncomfortable with this relationship, but he couldn't dissolve it.

The big guy of the Tang family didn't be the teacher in the examination room this time, and he didn't even have a name. But who doesn't know that he is the boss behind it? It doesn't matter if he took it or not, you have to pay a greeting, give a gift, say a kind word, and tie up the relationship. The little guy deliberately put one of the posts at the front:

Xie Yunjian, Jincheng, Xubei Province. New Branch Tanhualang.

Even Xie Yunjian, who is so arrogant, teaches the Seventh Prince like a puppy, and he has to obediently post to the big man of the Tang family.

"It's sensible." The big man of the Tang family nodded.

"I'm looking forward to your attendance." The little big guy said. is talking about the thank-you banquet of the jinshi, and I want to invite the Tang family boss to sit in the chief.

The big man of the Tang family shook his hand: "You are not too small, you should see through it." What are you doing with those false names? ”

The little boss responded and went out to run errands. The thank-you banquet placed by the Jinshi is in the famous restaurant outside the Yanxi Gate of Zhuque Street in Beijing. After eating this meal, everyone went to their respective official positions. At that moment, I saw an endless stream of cars and horses on the road. The banquet was held in the evening, and the people who had been reporting the news from the morning had all gone up. This is called the spring breeze proud, and you can see all the Chang'an flowers in one night.

There was a half-worn carriage that passed quietly beside these proud men and horses.

The arrogant drivers of the new car looked at the half-worn carriage and gave way to the side.

The status of the characters in the capital is often not determined by the newly splashed paint and newly beaten gold ornaments, but it is reflected from this view.

The people in the car have walked in the capital all their lives, and they have also drunk cherry banquets, and they have also entered and exited Yanxi Gate, and served the emperors of two dynasties.

He is a Taifu.

Cui Heng was angry and relieved of the title of teacher for the Seventh Prince, and he went home quietly. He walked through the streets, into the alleys, and into his own door.

It was the waist gate that entered.

The door of his house has eight vermilion lacquer and stone lion arch guards, which is extremely magnificent, and has received the emperor and welcomed relatives and friends, but he has not only welcomed him himself.

If he walks by himself, he will enter the waist door. The door was old, and it looked like his palanquin; The size is not large, and it can be walked in a sedan chair.

He went in the sedan chair and got out of the sedan chair through a door. The accustomed subordinates served him through the two gates. When he reached the three gates, his wife was there.

Tianwei's wrath, the boudoir has already been heard. I met, but I didn't ask anything. His wife led his mother-in-law to change his clothes and hand him a handkerchief to wipe his face.

The old husband and wife, one by one, don't have to say anything, just understand. Taifu was reprimanded today, not to mention that he is very dignified, at least it is not too bad.

Home-cooked pickles fried with coconut white, a bowl of freshly boiled gruel, is Taifu's favorite dim sum. The subordinate retreated. Mrs. Taifu and Taifu sat face to face, and they could cheer for homely cooking: "Now vegetables are also expensive." said that it was to relieve Gyeongnam Road, and a large number of truckloads were pulled over there. ”

"And it should be." Taifu took a sip of gruel very fragrantly.

Mrs. Taifu said: "Today's courtyard is quiet, that is, a box of fresh cherries has been sent from the vegetable garden, and I asked the account room to divide the price of vegetables and fruits last season. ”

The vegetables and fruits of Taifufu Mansion are not bought out, but supplied at designated points. There is no need to pay one by one, so small family. Each batch is sent, an account is kept, and the season is over, and a total of one settlement is made. In fact, even if it is a year, it is nothing. Mrs. Taifu is not willing to delay, so it is a season and a knot. It's not like stepping on the tail and rushing to get rid of it every season. Often a new season begins, and the supplier has exquisite seasonal fruit filial piety, which is not accounted for, purely for the sake of showing filial piety. Mrs. Taifu smiled, so she asked the account room to reconcile with the supplier, and the account was correct, and the payment was made immediately, and the two phases were written off.

These things are all in the care of Mrs. Taifu. The male protagonist is outside the female protagonist, and the female protagonist is inside! After the tube, she informed the Taifu.

As for the fresh cherries, according to the convention, even if the Taifu doesn't like to eat them very much, they must be placed for him. But when he drinks porridge or eats, he doesn't use fruit. As usual, his wife would bring it to him later. Needless to say.

Mrs. Taifu told Taifu these things today, not purely to inform the accounts and fruits, but to let him know that the people from the Tang family did not come to the door.

There was no door-to-door, and a dissatisfied attitude was already expressed. If it's a hairy young man, wouldn't he be so frightened that he went over and asked for a meeting. Taifu is Taifu after all, he finished drinking the porridge without moving, and said, "Oh." ”

Mrs. Taifu saw a smile on the corner of Taifu's mouth. Her heart was relieved.

Taifu said: "This porridge is really accompanied by Mrs.'s home-cooked stir-fried vegetables, and it is fragrant." ”

Mrs. Taifu smiled and nodded in thanks.

Taifu said again: "Seeing that the wind is about to rise, it is better to stay away." ”

This old fox! Seeing that Yun Jian was receiving resources in the military, he wanted to go to the border city; Dong Xun couldn't come out of hibernation, the Tao was making too much fun of him, and he couldn't bear to bother; Cui Heng kicked the Seventh Prince to the south, saying that he must be used by the Heavenly Family to relieve disasters. Taifu smelled fishy! If you look at it from the recent construction of the palace and the cultivation of the temple, eight or nine are not far from ten.

It is difficult for courtiers to guess the emperor's intentions. It is even more difficult to speculate on the need to avoid disaster. Avoiding disaster does not make the emperor feel that this courtier has insight into the holy will in advance and then slips to avoid trouble, which is even more difficult! If you can complete the last action, the official seal can almost ensure peace for a lifetime, and you can sit back and relax.

Taifu leaned back safely, clasping his hands on his stomach. This is his extremely relaxed posture.

Mrs. Taifu greeted: Bring the rose flower dew and order a cup of tea.

The spring breeze blows and caresses, like a lover's eye waves. Taifu said: "I think of a person." ”

Mrs. Taifu listened.

Taifu said: "It is the same bachelor and the same emperor as me, and Zhuang Min returned to his hometown after ten years." ”

Mrs. Taifu knows who it is: Xie Xiaoheng.

How do you think of him well? Yes! His eldest grandson Yun Jian has passed the exam! This Dalang Yunjian is not the same as Erlang Yunshu. Yunshu is a good boy, but the amount of equipment is also here, it can be seen that in the future, it will be step-by-step, honest, if there is no mistake, after middle age, it will gradually become a cornerstone of the imperial court, and finally return to his hometown and live this life. It's really a sight to behold. (To be continued......)
