Chapter 278: Old Yuan's Secret Room
There is no doubt that even if the imperial court issued such a decree, it would probably be difficult to achieve results.
Heirlooms, whether they are poetry heirlooms or hammer heirlooms, are all about handing over what they have accumulated to their sons, not the next generation.
There are many famous characters who have their own unique knowledge. Everyone knows that the mastery is passed on, is it still called the mastery?
Sun Simiao's biggest headache is that many doctors do not cooperate, even if they take out real money, the more unwilling people are to contribute their own prescriptions. Moreover, Sun Simiao's behavior of editing prescription books and preparing to publish them and make them public to the world seemed to many doctors to be stupid. He was even judged as a betrayer of the healer profession.
This is a declaration of war against tradition, and the odds of winning, at least in the short term, are almost none!
After breakfast, Li Chengqian went back to his courtyard, and Du Ruhui went back to his single room. When they meet in the morning, they just bow their hands to each other, even if they have finished the ceremony, when they formally carry out the ceremony, they have to be solemn and bow down.
After reading the emperor's decree, fully expressing the worries of a hard-working emperor about his confidant ministers, and then handing over the emperor's reward to Du Ruhui, the etiquette can be regarded as the end. This holy decree is not from the emperor's handwriting at first glance, because a simple thing is extremely complicated, it is obviously a greeting to the disease, and after reading it, there is a smell of backing the mountain and about to bury the ward. Besides, the emperor is busy with affairs, how can he have time to write such a long decree, it is obvious that someone else wrote it.
However, Du Ruhui didn't care about this, holding the holy decree as if he had held his first child, he was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth. Not all ministers are qualified enough to make the emperor shush and ask for warmth, and those who are greeted by the emperor are all humeral ministers.
After handing over the holy decree to his eldest son Du Gou, he looked at the heavy snow that was still falling outside, and Du Ruhui arched his hand and said, "Your Highness, it is better to stay in the academy for the time being, and wait for the snow to stop before leaving." Weichen's body still needs to recuperate for a period of time, so I just take this opportunity to discuss the government with you. β
After instructing several officials of the Ministry of Rites to leave, Li Chengqian sat on the chair in the ward: "With such a heavy snowfall, you can't go back?" Your vacation? It is estimated that it will also be extended as a result. What is there to talk about in the government? Why don't you do that, Du Shangshu? How about you give a lecture at the Academy? Now almost all the graduates of the first batch of the college have returned? Struggling with your dissertation, your lectures? It will definitely inspire them a lot. β
"The old man lecturing?"
Hearing this suddenly, Du Ruhui was really a little itchy for a while? Is he a traditional literati? It's hard to refuse this kind of teaching, but what is the point of the lecture?
Seeing Du Ruhui's thoughts, Li Chengqian added: "Father Emperor has already started to prepare for the exam specifically for the disciples of the academy?" Don't know the details though? However, I deduce that a lot of people will be admitted, and a large area of the grassland needs to be stationed, and it is not suitable for the children of all families to be sent in the past, and the children of commoners are the best candidates? Because they won't be contaminated with too much utilitarianism. You can tell them about the experience of being an official, or talk about being an official; What should I do after admission? You can talk about it! Of course, the academy won't let you talk in vain? 100 times, is the remuneration for your lectures? How is it? β
Du Ruhui nodded? Walk over to your desk and sit down? I began to think hard about the content of the lecture. How much money is not a problem, if he doesn't want to talk about it, the college will move a mountain of gold, he will be.... You have to think about it first. The most important thing is what is most appropriate.
It's a great opportunity, and the most important thing for officials is that kind of subordinate relationship, or teacher-student friendship. These two things are much more convenient than blunt solicitation. Although the Du family is also a big family, it is also a new nobleman, and if you want future generations to continue to mix in the officialdom, you should have a relationship.
Seeing that Du Ruhui had already begun to ponder, Li Chengqian refused Du Gou's farewell and left quietly.
It is still very rare for such a heavy snow to fall in Chang'an, and when I left the inpatient building, I saw many medical school students clearing the snow. These students all directly expressed their desire to enter medical school to study medicine, and most of them were first-class graduates. In terms of students' choice of their own path, Mr. Yang Du's idea is to be laissez-faire. The road is all walked by yourself, and other people's fingers may not be appropriate.
Since these students like to study medicine, then give them such an opportunity, although being an official can be regarded as honoring the ancestors, but people don't live only to honor the ancestors, right?
Walking through the medical school, I found that it was not only the medical school students who were removing the snow, but also the students of the college. The disciples of the academy attach great importance to collective honor, and they obviously don't think about the tea and dinner that are tortured by their graduation thesis, but they will not be absent when they encounter this kind of collective activity. After all, they have been completely "on vacation", but the juniors still have to attend classes, and it is not okay to spend their study time doing chores.
Of course, there are also children of the family among the people who remove the snow, whether it is the eldest grandson Chong, or Du He and others, they are not lazy, but are really removing the snow.
Seeing the figure of the prince, the students who were removing the snow gathered around and began to talk about how torturous it was to write their papers.
As soon as the eldest grandson waved his arm, everyone shut up, and the order of the student union president still had to be listened to.
"Okay, okay, Lone knows that you are deeply tortured, but whether you are a child of a family or a civilian student, don't you have to write. I believe you already know the gossip, this time the paper is a stone specially prepared for you, whether you can attract the attention of the court bigwigs, it depends on your own means. But it's good to say in advance, it's not okay to slap the horse, the academy will come out of everything, but it won't be a waste.
In fact, it is very simple, as long as you go through what you think and learn, and then think about your ambitions, a paper will come out. In fact, the paper is not about how well you write, how delicate the writing is, how beautiful the words and sentences are, you know, the content is the core! β
After listening to Li Chengqian's words, many people were thoughtful, and it seemed that they had listened to it.
Looking at the snowdrifts they were piling up randomly, Li Chengqian suddenly became playful, pointed to the snowdrifts and said: "If it's just work, how boring it is, why don't we pile up all the snow together, shoot it hard, use it as a stone, and make some carvings or something." You're about to graduate, so you have to leave some souvenirs for the younger students, don't you? β
Li Chengqian's proposal was immediately applauded by the students, and everyone mustered up their enthusiasm and started working again.
Remembering that he hadn't played in the snow for a long time, Li Chengqian's heart suddenly itched, and when he picked up the wooden shovel, he was stopped by Chang He and Zhang Yun.
"Your Highness, if you suffer from the wind and cold because of this, I will be responsible for my death."
Not only did they say this, but the eldest grandson Chong also came over and said: "Cheng Qian, you better rest, how can the prince do such rough work?" β
This is angry, what's wrong with the prince doing some work? Even if you are a dignified emperor, don't you work all day? You must know that reviewing and reading is not a happy job, and in the opinion of Li Chengqian, who has experienced it, it is not much worse than guarding the barracks in the cold wind.
Seeing that there was a big snowdrift behind Changsun Chong, Li Chengqian had a plan and shouted at the top of his voice: "Everyone look here, teach you an interesting way to play!" β
After most people's attention was attracted, Li Chengqian rushed towards Changsun with a smile.
The eldest grandson Chong was holding a wooden shovel in his hand, and when he saw the prince rushing over, he hurriedly threw it aside, and he still hadn't figured out what the prince was going to do.
deceived him, hugged his waist directly, and was about to knock him down.
The eldest grandson Chong is not an ordinary person, and when he sensed the prince's intentions, he immediately took a deep breath and used his wrestling skills to prepare to resolve the crisis. How could Li Chengqian let him succeed? Niu Jinda's various skills are not learned in vain. Just the change of moves made Changsun Chong's remedies useless, and the whole person was lifted off the ground by Li Chengqian, and then fell heavily into the snowdrift.
Before Changsun Chong could react, Li Chengqian threw himself on the snow and laughed: "This game is called burying the living, hahaha!" β
Chai Zhewei was the first to react, and when he saw that the eldest grandson Chong couldn't react when he protected his eyes, he immediately threw away the shovel and joined the ranks of the "murderers".
With Li Chengqian taking the lead, many people found their friends for the first time and began to wrestle on the snow, as long as there are people who fall to the ground, they will definitely be besieged by the people around them.
In the office building, Yang Du pushed open the window of the office and watched the students outside go crazy.
Fang Xiaoquan patted the window and said worriedly: "How can this work, if you get wet, you will suffer from the wind and cold, you have to stop them quickly." β
Yang Du sighed and said: "Okay, just tell the students of the medical school to prepare some cold soup for them, you can also see what the graduation thesis during this period has boiled them into, just vent it." β
Hearing Yang Du say this, Fang Xiaoquan could only sigh, and simply came out of sight and out of mind. I'm old and I don't have the heart to have fun, but when I see that my disciples are so happy, I still have the idea of being together, and it's better not to watch it.
After successfully driving everyone, Li Chengqian retired and ran away quietly. If it goes on like this, even if he is still wearing the prince's robe, I am afraid that he will be poisoned.
When I returned to the courtyard, I found that someone was already waiting here.
I didn't know, but after asking, I found out that it was a eunuch under Changle, called Dafu.
Needless to say, the name must have been taken by Changle.
The snow is so heavy on the academy's side, it is estimated that it is not small on the Chang'an side, because Dafu's eyes are still bloody, and he is wet all over, and he looks like he has fallen.
"Changle's temper is getting worse and worse, how can I send you out on such a day, what if I break it, I have to reprimand her when I go back. Say, what are you going to say, go to the kitchen when you're done, and ask the cook to boil you some ginger soup to drink. β
Thinking of Changle's temperament, Li Chengqian felt that she must have taken a fancy to the auction hall or the East Palace again. Since her plan succeeded, this girl has become more and more invisible to her brother, and she wants to be justified in everything.
Dafu arched his hand and said excitedly: "His Royal Highness Lao cares, the slave is worth it even if he falls to death!" Princess Changle asked the slave maid to tell Her Royal Highness that Chang'an is snowing, and the queen will go to Laojunguan tomorrow to pray for blessings, and Miss Su will follow at that time. β
βWHATοΌβ
"Me?"
Seeing that Dafu was stunned, Li Chengqian immediately smiled: "It's nothing, okay, you go down and change your clothes, drink some ginger soup to warm up, and then go back to Chang'an with Gu!" β
After speaking, Li Chengqian took out the money bag in Zhang Yun's sleeve, and without opening it, he threw it directly to Dafu.
The great blessing that he had never received so many rewards was excited, and when he fell to his knees, he shouted, "Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward."
Chang He, who was watching the whole process, couldn't help but be curious: "Your Highness, didn't you say that you would return to Chang'an in a few days?" Miss Su is...."
People who have no eyes are like this, seeing the prince's glaring, Chang He quickly closed his mouth.
Stretching his waist, Li Chengqian said: "Tell me to go down, everyone will be rewarded after returning to Chang'an, and they can drive as slowly as they can." β
Chang He, who knew that he was talking too much, arched his hand, so he went down to make arrangements.
Tsk, Su Yuan, since the last time they met, the two have been in contact by letter. This opportunity is rare.
I don't know what my daughter-in-law has become, so I have to get along for a while this time.
As for Changle, this thing is simply beautiful! The skin that the relatives brought back, she had to pick a good one and give it to her.
The speed of the forbidden army's reorganization is still very fast, and they are not qualified to complain, but when they heard that there will be a reward after returning to Chang'an, everyone is excited. We all know that the prince's rewards have always been generous, and maybe the rewards of one time are more than the ones they have been short of for a month.
Got back into the carriage, and in anticipation, the team slowly returned to Chang'an.
The snow in Chang'an is also very heavy, which can only be regarded as a heavy snow that adds scenery to the nobles and wealthy merchants, and it is already a big disaster for many people.
When passing by the coal sales point, Li Chengqian nodded with satisfaction after seeing signs that read "Borrow coal first, give money later" and "Lonely old people and poor households can receive coal for free." The people under him are still very capable, and they really should do this in such weather. The former is to give a lot of people a step down, and the latter is real relief. The people of Datang have not yet taken the risk of receiving relief, and those who receive relief must really be unable to survive.
The East Palace is also removing snow, since being inspired by the crown prince two years ago, they have learned to build snowmen, but it is a pity that there are no people who are good at carving, otherwise there will definitely be lifelike carvings in the East Palace.
Tomorrow I will meet my future daughter-in-law, who has the kung fu to appreciate the snow. Back in the study, after a meal of coercion and temptation, Chang He nodded stiffly. Tomorrow, he will take a few good guards and go out of the palace with the prince in disguise....
One night.... Dream....
In the morning, after breaking the sheets and underwear into a ball and throwing them to Zhang Yun for him to burn, Li Chengqian's face turned red directly.
It's not the psychological age to be lustful, why are you still so embarrassed? It's obviously missing, but as soon as you fall asleep at night, it directly becomes desire, and we're not people who think with the lower half of our bodies!
"Your Highness, Chang He is ready, ask if you want to go out now."
"Get out! We have to step on it in advance, and find someone to quietly inform Changle, and say that Lone will put a small red flag in the invisible place and let her come to me according to the chess pieces. β
Zhang Yun nodded, held back a smile and walked out with the sheets.
The East Palace also has a back door, that is, the Xuande Gate, although it is the West Inner Garden after going out from here, but then out of the Xing'an Gate, it is considered to be out of the palace.
The guards of Xing'anmen were Chang He's subordinates, so they naturally didn't see the prince and his party slipping out, but after they were released, they turned around and wrote a secret report to prepare to send to the emperor.
Well, this is also a member of the Hundred Riders....
The snow is still falling, but it is much smaller, and most of the snow on the streets of Chang'an has been cleared out. As long as the official greets them, those who are not missing arms and legs will spontaneously join the collective labor.
Along the way, I specially picked a place with few people, like a gang of thieves.
It was not easy to arrive at Laojunguan, but the Taoist priest guarding the door told him that the queen would come today, and an army would come soon.
After kicking the Taoist priest away, Li Chengqian said: "Tell Yuan Tiangang to come out, I don't believe it, he dares to refuse Lone?" β
As soon as the words were shouted, Yuan Tiangang appeared at the door of the Taoist temple, and when he saw that the prince was dressed in regular clothes, he said to the Taoist priest guarding the door: "You go to the side, no one has come, remember!" β
After speaking, Yuan Tiangang smiled and invited the prince in.
Walking into Laojunguan, Li Chengqian said to Zhang Yunnunu, and Zhang Yun took out a heavy money bag and sent it to Yuan Tiangang.
"This is a little incense money that the descendants of Lone dedicated to the ancestors, and the Taoist chief collected it. I came here today to see a person, remember to tell you the Taoist in the Taoist temple, some people and things have not been seen, you know? β
Yuan Tiangang opened the money bag a little, and when he saw the yellow piece inside, he immediately smiled like a hen laying eggs, and nodded again and again: "Your Highness, rest assured, the old Taoist will order to go down, but when the time comes, there will be an army of Jin Wuwei guarding the Taoist temple, you see..."
"Then find a secret place for Lone, don't tell Lone that you don't have it here."
Yuan Tiangang smiled: "Yes! In the small courtyard of Lao Dao, those sergeants still don't dare to search wantonly, at most they will check it, you just need to hide in the secret room of Lao Dao's room, and wait for someone to leave before coming out. β
Li Chengqian nodded, and let Yuan Tiangang lead the way.
Although Yuan Tiangang is considered the leader of the Daomen, the place where he lives is really not good, and it looks very shabby. In the room, as long as you open the mechanism and push open the bookcase, it is a dark room.
Li Chengqian, who just felt that Yuan Tiangang's life was a little miserable, gasped directly when he walked into the dark room.
Obediently, the gold, silver and jewelry here are all packed in special mother's boxes.
Knowing that Li Chengqian only remembered now, Lao Yuan's signboard is fortune-telling and appearance, and there is no shortage of believers in this among the noble bosses, so ask him to calculate his life and marriage, and it will definitely cost a lot!
