Chapter 14 Rivers and Lakes
When he returned to his room, he was not long before the little maids brought over the beaver fur hat and the utensils for boiling cocoa.
The silver was only given to a slip, and if it was needed, it was only necessary to take the strip and go to the house to spend it. Anyway, according to Liu Yu's mother's thoughts, this money is not spent by Liu Yu himself, but must be done by the little maid and the maid.
The mother may be afraid that the money is not enough, so she quietly took out two ten taels of gold from her own money, which is not in the public account of the house.
At lunchtime, Swift and a few maids came back with a lot of various colored silks.
Liu Yu had never seen such a good silk in his previous life, and he had never seen such a commercially available silk in this life, and he didn't know which was green satin and which was Lu silk.
After asking, I copied the silk and tried the quality, and it was usable.
It just so happens that it's not expensive, one tael of more silver is a horse, and it's enough to make one thousand two hundred taels.
After drawing a rough picture, he handed the pile of silk cloth to the swift.
"The rest, you just look at the points, it's all some market goods, I don't need it, you can cut a piece of clothing by yourself. If there is much and there is a surplus, you will keep it; If it's less, you can buy a few more horses from the house, and don't want this one and that. ”
After the instructions were finished, he carried the gold and the number plate of the silver, went out of the inner courtyard, and found his close little steamed bun.
And when he had spoken about it, he gave him both silver and gold.
"Find a better tailor and do what I have to say. How to get it specifically, I also wrote it on the paper, and since you know how to read, you should not be wrong. If there is a rebate, you keep it. I just need to do it as soon as possible, do you understand? ”
The steamed buns were smiling, and six or seven hundred pieces of silk worked at once, and this rebate was a few dozen taels.
He also knows that the days ahead will be long, and if he really splits up the family in the future, he will follow the third master, how can he be a housekeeper or something, where can he not distinguish the priority?
It's good to get money, but it's important to get things done.
"Third master, don't worry. Today, the tenth day of the new year, I am sure to finish it before mid-autumn. There are not many others in the capital, but tailor shops are indispensable. It's just a plaything for a thousand taels of silver, if the prince knows about it......"
Liu Yu gave the steamed bun a roll of his eyes and scolded: "If you want me to feel unreliable in the future, let my father know." ”
The steamed bun hurriedly put away the money, grinned, and knew that he would be beaten at most, but there was still money in his hands. If you do it tightly, you don't know it.
A smoke ran away from the door and almost hit Tian Ping, who came in from outside.
It was inconvenient for the two of them to go to the inner courtyard, so they found a courtyard with no one in the house, and began to nag about the affairs of the Xiyi countries, as well as all kinds of taboo things in the Rakshasa country.
…………
After seven or eight days of boring days, after the mid-year festival of chasing away and sacrificing ancestors, it was the end of the month in a blink of an eye.
Wude Palace is about to start classes again, Liu Yu said goodbye to his parents early in the morning, put on the student uniform in Wude Palace, and went to Wude Palace with steamed buns.
As a steamed bun, he couldn't go in, and all the nobles were afraid that their sons would suffer, so they sent some intimate servants to rent some houses outside the Wude Palace to make it easier to call.
A family like Yi Guogong, considering that future generations will have to go sooner or later, simply bought a small courtyard there, and allocated a few old people to look at the house there.
Wude Palace is on Taibao Street in the former Ming Dynasty, which was originally the eunuch official room of the former dynasty. The so-called official house is the toilet garbage disposal area, where all kinds of toilet barrels in the Forbidden City are sent for cleaning and storage.
When Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, he whimsically wanted to replace the eunuchs with "female officials" to relieve the suffering of eunuchs.
Li Guo, who is suspected of being a traverser, also said: Checking the classics, Tang Mingzong's inner palace maids are 100 people, and there are records, it can be seen that a palace of this scale can maintain normal operation without eunuchs. This number can be set as an upper limit and recorded as a warning to children and grandchildren.
Later, Li Laiheng tried for a few years and found that it was a bit difficult, and it was very problematic to have the imperial power of not having eunuchs, so he had to abandon this brain hole and continue to use eunuchs. It's just that he doesn't dare to violate the ancestral training in terms of the number of palace maids, after all, he is a righteous son, and the ancestral training should be treated more cautiously.
The original eunuch's official room was also repurposed and built into Wude Palace.
It is just across the street from Taixue, next to the Berlin Temple built in the Yuan Dynasty.
Originally, in history, this place was the Lama Temple and the Artillery Bureau of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was changed to a labor camp, so there is a saying that the old Pao'er in Beijing City - the people who often enter the Labor Reform Center of the Artillery Bureau are referred to as the old cannons.
It's right next to the inner city walls, so it's quite remote. Across the street, there is Tai Academy and Guozijian. The students of Taixue and the students of Wude Palace often fight, and it is no longer news in the capital.
When I entered the Wude Palace, I saw a group of noble disciples sighing there.
"It's easy to rest at home for a month, and I have to stay up for another three months, how can I get by?"
This is not a prison, but they have to stay here at night, and without a maid to warm the bed and a maid to study ink, these people can't stand it.
Liu Yu is in the inner house of Wude Palace, and he is considered the leader of the noble children. One is from the Founding Duke's Mansion, and the other is that his assessment results are also the best in this group of nobles.
But where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. There are also gangs in the Wude Palace.
The children of the nobles looked down on those "poor" children who accumulated military merits and were able to enter the school; The children of the third-rank and fourth-rank military attachés befriended these noble children; The children of the "poor family" who are of a lower grade but rely on their father's blood to get admitted to school are also not looked down on a group of gentlemen who do not learn and have no skills and cannot endure hardships; Honest, look down on those stammering lackeys.
It is said that Liu Yu is a big man in the stalk, which is what it means.
The best students in the Wude Palace who can be promoted to the upper house are basically the children of the soldiers who were born in the military camp "camp study".
"Mulan Ci" cloud: Twelve turns of Cexun.
Dashun also has a complete set of meritorious service system, theoretically a small soldier can also cut out a "Twelve Turns of Strategy" by cutting people, and cut out a "Shangzhu Country".
Of course, in fact......
Generally speaking, it is to cut a cloud cavalry lieutenant and a flying cavalry lieutenant, and give his son a chance to enter the Wude Palace.
These children of the world soldiers know that learning opportunities are not easy to come by, and they can't catch up with a noble and noble like Liu Yu by enduring hardships and hard work.
Now in charge of the army in the northwest, the general, the envoy of the Shaanxi-Gansu Festival, was born as a soldier of the world, and climbed up by hard work and military achievements. Back then, in Wude Palace, I also drank and said: If your group of people didn't have the merit of their ancestors to fight a prince, how could they be qualified to be my classmates?
The power of example is endless, and now in the northwest, this general and envoy of the festival who was born as a son of the world soldier has inspired the fighting spirit and efforts of later generations.
In this generation of Wude Palace, the children of Xungui can be regarded as worthy of people in terms of knowledge, and they are Liu Yu and Tian Ping.
It's a pity that Tian Ping didn't have the opportunity to enter the "upper house" in his life.
This guy perfectly interprets what it means to be "destined to be odd":
When I was a child, I learned to ride a horse, but the horse broke my leg in shock, and since then the body of the horse has been as hard as a stone, and the art of bowing the horse has not been qualified.
Later, he learned to release the bird gun musket, and the descendants of Wushan Boma Shiyao when the Xi'an system was established, when the bird gun was cast, the bore was blown up, and the eyeballs were blown out. Tian Ping was next to him, his eyes were on his face, and since then, when he sees gunpowder, he will smoke it, and he will hide when he sets off firecrackers during the New Year
Later, I learned Western geometry and physics, and I read it smoothly in the subset of history, but I couldn't understand the theorems and inferences in the original geometry. The root number of a reverse deduction method is the proof of irrational numbers, Xu Guangqi's translation is very clear, he pondered for two months and still didn't understand; When I heard that the earth was round, I couldn't figure out why people couldn't fall down......
Just these three points are destined to be able to enter an inner house in Wude Palace, and there is absolutely no play in the upper house.
However, when it comes to scripture and history, his knowledge is still admirable, at least he can often insult Liu Yu for not being skilled, uneducated, and uneducated.
Today is the first day of classes after the autumn, everyone is coming, Liu Yu and Tian Ping go to that station, and people from their own noble circles come around.
Liu Yu just took the opportunity to get a dozen or so people together and said something.
"After a while, in mid-autumn, I have a good thing to open the eyes of the big guys. You have never seen it, let's finish our eyes, I'll be the east, let's get together. Who else wants to go? ”
After shouting, a few more people came around, and a few people left.
Everyone knows that Liu Yu is good at Western learning, and likes to tinker with some Western gadgets, and they have been lively a few times with the eye-opening things, but they don't think it's interesting.
There are not only those who have a good relationship and are purely supported by friendship, but also some "poor" children of the world soldiers who really like Western learning. The "Hanmen" are not poor, those who can go to school in Wude Palace, and their parents at least have a title such as Cloud Cavalry Captain.
"Brother Shouchang, but what new things have you made?"
"Hey, what came out this time is definitely an eye-opener. Let me tell you, even if Li Taibai is resurrected and sees my things, he will immediately have to write a poem. ”
deliberately sells the guanzi, and does not say what it is, which arouses the curiosity of many people.
What is it that can make Li Taibai come back to life and write a poem? This guy isn't bragging here, is he?
