Chapter 593 [Patrol]
Zhanzhao and the others returned to Kaifeng Mansion and saw that the mansion was lively. M.LWxS520.com mobile network
In the courtyard, the kitchen lady was holding a burden and talking to a few maids.
Zhanzhao asked Cui'er, "Auntie is going out?" β
"Hmmm! The eldest lady is about to give birth to a baby, she has to go home early and come back after the New Year. Cui'er spread her hands, "No one cooks!" β
Zhan Zhao gasped...... The fourth child also asked, "What should I do then?" Don't you have anything to eat? β
Gongsun stretched out his hand to pick up the little fourth son and poked his belly, "Can you still be hungry?" β
The fourth son put his arm around Gongsun's neck and asked, "Daddy, then if we go home for the New Year, we will leave Xiao Baozi's family in Kaifeng Mansion, and no one cooks, so pitiful!" β
Zhan Zhao touched his chin, "Why don't you let Master Bao go to the Demon Palace with us for the New Year?" β
"yes, I don't have to make another trip." Zhao Pu also came over to say.
After the kitchen lady finished explaining, she said goodbye to everyone and ran home happily.
Guarding Zhan instantly felt that this place couldn't stay! How do you live without a cook? No house is complete without a kitchen! Kaifeng Mansion is incomplete without a cook!
Just as he was thinking wildly, he saw Bao Yan and Pang Yuxing running in in a hurry.
Pang Yu said to everyone as he entered the door, "It's amazing! β
Everyone looked at Pang Yu's expression, and the schadenfreude on this face didn't seem to match "amazing" very well.
"What's wrong?" Gongsun asked.
Bao Yanzhi shook his head, "Dad and Taishi quarreled in the court!" β
Everyone looked at the sky, Master Bao and Master Pang quarreled, what is this new? When won't they quarrel?
"Unfortunately, when we quarreled today, it was a good headache for the emperor." Pang Yu stretched out his hands.
Everyone looked at Gongsun, as if they had heard that Zhao Zhen had a headache these days.
Gongsun touched his chin and said, "It's because I didn't sleep well, plus I have a cold, so I have some migraines, and I need to be quiet and recuperate, it's really the wrong time to be noisy." β
"And then?" Zhao Pu asked.
Pang Yu was helpless, "The emperor drove Master Bao and my father away, and said that let them go out on patrol and simply go to the Demon Palace for the New Year, anyway, aren't you going to eat wine!" After the New Year, I went north from the Demon Palace, all the way to Black Wind City, and then returned to Kaifeng. β
Everyone opened their mouths wide, so they had to go for more than half a year?
Bao Yan was also helpless, "The emperor asked my father and the princess to come back when they took the palace exam next year, don't be in a hurry to walk slowly, if you have something to summon, rest assured!" β
Everyone looked at the sky, Zhao Zhen was annoyed.
"What are they arguing about?" Bai Yutang was a little curious.
"It seems to be for the matter of the transfer envoy of the Liangzhejiang Road......" Pang Yu didn't finish speaking, and there was a voice from outside, listening to the movement, Lord Bao and Taishi came back together.
Everyone heard the Taishi complaining all the way, "It's all your fault!" You can't let me do it, now it's okay! β
Master Bao didn't show weakness, "Isn't it you who started this matter!" Do you still blame me? β
"I don't care! I can't even celebrate the New Year with my granddaughter! Taishi gasped, "I'm going to follow you around when I'm old!" β
"It's good for you to run around! Look at your belly! Master Bao was not forgiving, "You just run too little on weekdays." β
"What did you say!" Taishi was angry, "This Taishi is also slightly fat!" β
Lord Bao looked at his belly with disgust, "Look at your straw belly and you're embarrassed to say that it's slightly fat!" β
"Old man, that's the general's belly!"
"Belly, you're big!"
β¦β¦
The two of you didn't give in to each other, and when I looked up, I saw a lot of people.
Everyone also sighed, these two must have a deep hatred in their previous lives!
Mr. Bao looked at the sun, it was past noon, why didn't he eat?
"Have you all eaten?" Master Bao seems to be hungry.
The master also asked, "Do you want to eat?" What to eat at noon today? β
Master Bao looked at him with disgust, "You go back to your Taishi's Mansion to eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, don't eat in my Qingshui Yamen!" β
Taishi blew his beard, "Your yamen is clear water, but the food is not clear at all!" It's better than the food in the imperial dining room! β
Everyone silently supported their foreheads, Kaifeng Mansion did have good food, first, the kitchen lady had good skills, and secondly, the fifth master wanted to feed the cat. β
Pang Yu and Bao Yan hurriedly went up to persuade the two to separate, and the maids came to serve tea.
Everyone here eats lunch outside, the kitchen lady is in a hurry, and the maid has also eaten, and there is nothing in the kitchen at this time.
Coincidentally, Yin Hou and Tianzun also came back, and the two of them didn't eat.
Bai Yutang asked people to get some wine and food, and just put them in the yard, Long Qiaoguang and Zou Liang came back with some game, and Lin Yehuo grabbed a pheasant leg and gnawed it very happily, it was just hunting.
Everyone simply sat in the courtyard, roasted game and wine, and chatted for a while.
Master Bao and Taishi were eating while glaring at each other.
Zhan Zhao poured wine for the two, quite curious, "What is that arguing for?" β
Taishi pursed his lips and said, "Blame me for being too talkative." β
Master Bao squinted at him, that means - you can be considered to recognize it!
Everyone looked at each other and asked the reason in detail.
It turned out that when he was in court this morning, Zhao Zhen shook it with a copy of the recital and asked, "Do you have any good candidates to recommend?" β
The ministers all wondered - where is there a sudden vacancy in an official position that needs to be recommended?
Zhao Zhen did have a headache in the morning, he had a cold these days, and Gongsun prescribed him medicine to take it, but Gongsun told him to go to bed early at night and recuperate on weekdays. But the emperor is also in charge of every day, especially the recent Chinese New Year, the winter is cold, and there are some snow disasters and frost damage in various places to deal with. And in the past few days, the Queen Mother took Xiangxiang to Nan'an Temple to live for two days to pray for blessings, and Zhao Zhen couldn't sleep at night when she thought about her daughter, rolling around and tossing. Originally, when he had a headache, Xiangxiang's little hand rubbed him and he could see better, but the girl couldn't return to the palace until tomorrow, Zhao Zhen crossed his fingers and hoped that the days would pass quickly.
was already annoying, but last night I suddenly received a part, which caused Zhao Zhen to not sleep well all night.
This twist and turn was written by Huang Tong, the transfer envoy of the Liangzhejiang Road, who was in charge of the important affairs of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and his official position was quite important. Huang Tong is just fifty years old this year, he is very capable and steady, and Zhao Zhen has always been very relieved of him. However, Huang Tong suddenly wrote a recital to resign, saying that his mother was sick, this Huang Tong was the most filial, and Lang Zhong said that his mother should not live for two years, so Huang Tong did not do any more than a big official, and said that he would go back to the countryside to accompany his mother to fulfill his filial piety.
This hundred virtues and filial piety come first, Zhao Zhen is naturally not easy to stop, but where to find a suitable person to take over as the transfer envoy of these two Zhejiang provinces for a while.
In addition, Huang Tong has an advantage, he is a martial champion, and his kung fu is excellent, and there are especially many sects in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and ordinary civil officials can't manage things at all. And Huang Tong also wrote on the beating table, saying that there seems to be something wrong with several big Jianghu sects recently, and there are also rumors in the rivers and lakes that there are several murders, but they don't report it secretly, as if they are courteous. Huang Tong originally wanted to investigate this matter carefully, but his mother fell ill suddenly, so he suggested that Zhao Zhen would be better to choose an official who was smart and clever and proficient in martial arts.
Zhao Zhen's head is about to explode...... Smart, clever and proficient in martial arts, he knows a lot! There are a bunch of them in Kaifeng Mansion, but unfortunately none of them want to be officials! Zhao Zhen sometimes dreams that it would be great if Zhanzhao, Bai Yutang, Lin Yehuo and Gongsun were willing to enter the court as officials! But just think about it, the gap between reality and ideals is too big, anyway, this group of people are willing to help him instead of going against him, and he, the emperor, is already very satisfied.
Zhao Zhen also asked casually in the court.
The courtiers answered, saying that they chatted with a few officials from Suzhou a while ago, and they all complained that there were too many sects in the rivers and lakes over there, and there were often conflicts between several big gangs, and they couldn't control it, and people didn't take the government in their eyes. Huang Tong is also a threshold master, and it is estimated that he smelled something and felt that he should not be able to control it, so it was better to take it as the best policy, which shows that the situation is not good.
Zhao Zhen rubbed his temples and nodded, "Then do you Aiqing have any good candidates to recommend?" β
As a result, the ministers began to talk about recommending people.
Zhao Zhen felt a buzzing in his ears, and his head was dizzy.
At this time, the Taishi said, "Why don't you find someone to take care of it temporarily?" β
Zhao Zhen held his chin, "Temporary? β
Taishi looked at the side of Master Bao, who was calm and relaxed, and didn't seem to want to ask about it, so the bad heart came up, and he started to play, and said that after the end of the year, didn't Kaifeng Mansion continue to go on patrol? Why don't you go to Suzhou Mansion and let Zhan escort them to find out what the relationship between the Jianghu sect and the government is like over there? Then make a decision on a case-by-case basis.
Master Bao squinted at Master Pang, what does that mean-what do you have a bad idea about a dead fat man? After the New Year, I rushed to the Demon Palace to attend the wedding, and the patrol was also rolled away according to the dragon pattern. The route hasn't been planned yet, so you're here to make a mess!
The ministers in the court and the central government all knew that the Taishi was going to take Lord Bao to Suzhou Mansion, and as soon as Lord Bao left, no one would take care of him in Kaifeng Mansion, and he would be more comfortable.
Zhao Zhen touched his chin and felt that it was a solution.
Master Bao also went out to play, saying that he was going out to investigate the case, so it was better to let the Taishi go to the Liangzhejiang area to temporarily take care of official affairs for a few days, and select officials from the local area, and the locals would be easier to manage.
Zhao Zhen then touched his chin, this mention is not bad.
As soon as the Taishi heard that he wanted to go by himself, he hurriedly said, "It's better to go with Master Bao." β
Where is Master Bao willing to let him, "It's more appropriate for the master to go." β
All the ministers in the court watched the excitement, and a few helped to pinch it, so the Taishi and Master Bao quarreled again.
Nangong Ji and Gonggong Chen stood next to the screen behind the dragon chair, and saw that Zhao Zhen's shoulders were shaking, holding his forehead and lowering his head, and they knew that these two old ministers were going to be unlucky again.
Sure enough, I saw Zhao Zhen throw the fold in his hand on the dragon book case, and said, "Don't fight, the two Aiqing just go together."
Master Bao and Master Taishi are not noisy, looking at each other - aren't they? Again?
The court was silent for an instant, and Zhao Zhen felt that his head suddenly didn't hurt so much at this moment, and he was sure again! The premise of "recuperation" is to drive away these two troublemakers.
Zhao Zhenxin said that this is it! So he waved the sleeves of his robe and said, "The two Aiqing have their own strengths, and they should work together, so let's prepare for these two days, and the day after tomorrow we will set off to patrol south." Anyway, don't you want to go to the Demon Palace to eat and drink, and bring some congratulatory gifts for me by the way. The Demon Palace is so close to Suzhou Mansion, the two relatives may wish to stay for a few more days, simply go to the Demon Palace for the New Year, and by the way, help me take a look at the situation in Suzhou Mansion and recommend a suitable person to take over the position of the transfer envoy. Don't rush back after eating the wedding wine after the New Year, go north, go all the way out to inspect the old cases in the dragon pattern scroll, go around the Black Wind City, and come back when you enter the Autumn Palace. β
Master Bao and Master Pang opened their mouths wide-huh?
Zhao Zhen looked at the expressions of the two and felt relieved, and the headache was better, so he flicked his sleeves, "That's it!" β
Gonggong Chen took a slow sentence on the side, "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat."
The ministers all lowered their heads and laughed.
Master Bao and Taishi were dumbfounded.
Zhao Zhen ran away after giving the order and enjoyed the quiet good time in the afternoon!
Everyone was speechless after learning what had happenedβit seemed that every time, Master Bao and Taishi quarreled with each other, and then Zhao Zhen packed them up and drove them away. These two people are also some of the smartest people in the world, why don't they remember the lesson, this is the first time?!
Mrs. Bao was quite happy, saying that it was good to go to the south for the New Year, and she could go back to her hometown in Luzhou.
Everyone discussed it, and then went to the Demon Palace to meet and rush too much, it was better to go south together, all to the Demon Palace for the New Year, and then go north after eating the wedding wine, go to the Sky Island and then rush to the Black Wind City, and finally to the Devil City, all the way through, and each place can live for a while longer.
Xiao Sizi thinks that this is the best, everyone can celebrate the New Year together, and they are separated from the loneliness of Tiannan and Haibei.
Anyway, the chef of Kaifeng Mansion also ran away, and Lord Bao simply asked everyone to prepare, go out on patrol to the south, and go to the Demon Palace for the New Year!
In this way, the happiest is naturally Zhanzhao, and this matter is also in a hurry, he took the time to tell Master Bao about the matter that Tan Shaoyan asked him to help investigate.
Master Bao felt that something was strange, and Huang Tong also wrote in the beating table that he was very worried about the situation between several gangs recently, so he took this opportunity to simply investigate.
So, just go!
Kaifeng Mansion, Bai Mansion, Jiuwang Mansion and Taishi Mansion all began to pack up things, and after two days of preparation, three bells rang the gong to open the way, the south gate of Kaifeng was opened, and Bao Zheng "dragged the family with the mouth" and pulled a large number of people to guard the sky, and everyone rode horses with tigers and followed a white dragon in the sky...... The team left Kaifeng and went south to Suzhou Mansion!
