Yuen Long lived not in the Imperial City, but in the Buzheng Fang in the outer city.

Listen to the name to know who lives here, the most are the court officials and their dependents, this place is close to the imperial city, but also very close to the West Market, is one of the best locations in the outer city.

Yuen Long's mansion is in the southwest of Buzheng Fang, across a forest is the seat of Zuo Hou Wei's mansion, the security is quite good, and across the street is Chang'an West City.

Of course, unlike most other officials who came from Jindi who needed to find temporary shelter, Yuen Long was a native of Chang'an and lived in his own house.

Yuen Long belongs to the last branch of the Yuan family, otherwise his father would not have raised horses for Li Jing, and after following Li Jing back to Chang'an, he would have to teach people to make a living.

It is not surprising that the branches and leaves of the Yuan clan are luxuriant, and it is normal for some of them to fall to the ground.

The surname Yuan is undoubtedly an ancient surname, but the Yuan family, which now occupies a place in the top gate valves, must be the Yuan family after the Tuoba family of the Northern Wei Dynasty changed its surname, and the descendants of the royal family of the Northern Wei Dynasty are naturally extremely noble.

Therefore, Yuen Long's home is quite "shabby", this is a courtyard with only two entrances and more than a dozen rooms, Yuen Long husband and wife, plus some servants, the place is not rich.

Yuen Long, who was accustomed to living in Jinyang's mansion, was very dissatisfied, and felt that this place was extremely inconsistent with his identity, so he yelled that he wanted to change his house.

This is not an excessive request, King Han is now the master of the entire Chang'an City, and even Guanxi, his wife and brother want to live better and eat more abundantly, what is it?

But the old man is not happy, do you know how hard Lao Tzu worked to run two mansions in the long settlement, if it weren't for the sake of you marrying a princess, Lao Tzu could let you live in a little beast?

So Yuen Long was beaten badly, not seen for many years, the old man was more angry than before, but he definitely didn't do it, so he changed the stick, and at that time Yuen Long beat the head of the rat, and the family also made a fuss, and broke up unhappily.

When Wei Zheng and the others saw him? There are still stick marks on the face that have not gone away? Yuen Long felt that he had lost face in front of his subordinates, and his expression couldn't help but be scornful.

Naturally, how many people wouldn't laugh at him? Are they here for a drink? It's not a joke.

Ashina Yunzhen showed his side slightly, which flattered several people? Even if several of them have the opportunity to enter and leave the Han Palace, it can be seen that there are not many opportunities for the nobles.

Yuen Long held a banquet in the flower hall of the back house? Entertaining guests? It's not very rich, a few side dishes, a few jars of good wine, and a few people push their glasses and change the lamps to eat and drink.

Except for Wei Zheng? The others are actually from martial arts? Regardless of their background, even Yuen Long has been living abroad for many years, and there is not so much attention to etiquette.

At the beginning, Yuen Long was still a little depressed, after all, his face was not very good-looking, and he had been raised at home for many days.

But is he Yuen Long? Big-hearted (heartless) and drank a few glasses of wine? After a few more words with Xu Shiji, the atmosphere is getting more and more lively? Naturally, the mood became cheerful.

"Where does Yuan Zuo live now? Is it still cheap? ”

Zhao Shixun, the character left? He and Yuen Long don't have a deep relationship? This time, take advantage of the situation? I also want to make friends with this nobleman.

When he crossed the river, he and Wei Chi led the troops out of Feng Yi, and fought a fierce battle with the reinforcements led by Li Shimin under Feng Yi's city, and finally forced Li Shimin to lead the army away.

It can be said that these two are the first to cross the river, and now that the reward is imminent, Zhao Shixun is also expected to be able to take charge alone, which is different from the past, and he can no longer nest in the pro-army and ignore foreign affairs.

In other words, people are on the rise in their careers, and their attitude towards life is much more positive.

"The last general can't be compared with the main thing, I don't have any family, I live in the pro-army camp, Mao Gong should know, we people can't leave there, and now if there is no soldier to accompany me, I can't sleep well."

Xu Shiji smiled and nodded, "What Brother Zhao said is that when I had nothing to do in Jinyang, I could hear the sound of shouting and killing in my sleep, and I woke up in shock but I was stunned. ”

While echoing, I thought in my heart, I am different from you as an outlaw, we still prefer a good life with beautiful wives and concubines and a group of children.

"The king tasted the words, the fame is only taken immediately, you don't have to be dissatisfied, how is it like me, Bensheng is in the Kansai family, but he wastes time in the household, and when others ask, they don't want to tell people......"

After Yuen Long finished speaking, he sighed deeply, and his unwillingness was overflowing.

Several other people looked at each other, they didn't want to pick up the stubble, they didn't know the blessings when they were born in the blessings, and they wanted us to have such a brother-in-law, so the ghosts went to the barracks to mess around.

After holding it for a long time, and being "sad" with the Yuan director for a while, Wei Zhengcai said: "The king is about to say that the emperor is coming, and the chief will not be able to stay in this position for a few days, but now I know where to go?" ”

The other two people pricked up their ears, they all knew that the princess was extremely fond of this younger brother, don't look at the current official and humble position, but in the future, it will not be too easy to be a noble.

Otherwise, how could two generals with outstanding military achievements and a well-educated man with a scheming belly treat a small household head so respectfully? Not even an ordinary relative.

Yuen Long's "sorrowful eyebrows" still did not appear, "It should be the province under the door, the appointment has not yet arrived, don't go out and talk nonsense." ”

The three of them praised at the same time, in fact, what kind of place is Menxia Province and what its functions are, Zhao Shixun and Xu Shiji don't know much, they only know that the people who come out there should be born with their nostrils facing the sky, and they are extremely noble.

Only Wei Zheng knew that there were also some positions in Menxia Province that were not very good, such as Julang, although he was close to the emperor, he was in a humble position.

In recent years, Li Yuan changed the province of internal history to the province of Menxia, and the living room people have also become living rooms.

In fact, there is no need for such a change, most of them are just forced changes by the new dynasty that the new dynasty is unwilling to follow some things of the old dynasty, such as changing the county to the state, changing the county to the history of the assassination, and so on.

Li Yuan died, and it was the turn of the King of Han to call the shots, maybe when the Inner History Province appeared again, after all, when everyone was in Jinyang, the Han Dynasty's Mansion was the Inner History Province.

But the officialdom of Jinyang was not prosperous enough, the Inner History Province was a virtual existence, and there were no officials in it, which was not enough to compete with Shangshu Province and Zhongshu Province.

After entering Chang'an, it was different, the personnel and powers of Menxia Province were very complete, and it was an important institution that restricted Zhongshu and Shangshu Provinces.

Yuen Long entered the province as an official, it will definitely not be a position such as a living room, what position is noble and idle?

Wei Zheng was fooling around, but the other two had already raised their glasses to Yuen Long one after another, and their current target was the general of Weifu, as for the positions in the three provinces and six departments, they would naturally come to them at that time.

In addition to the real skills and merits, the other family background or recommended people are indispensable.

Pushing the cup and changing the lamp, Yuen Long invited Xu Shiji to move in with him, Xu Shiji gratefully agreed, but it was a slight difference from before, he originally felt that according to Yuen Long's family background, the mansion would be very large, but now that he saw that he could live in it himself, and those few soldiers didn't have to think about bringing it in.

Thinking of these, the problem of liking to work after drinking too much is a bit of a mistake, "The main thing is too simple, is it that the Jingshi is so honest as an official?" ”

Honest fart, if Li Po is replaced, even if he doesn't get angry on the spot, he will definitely give Xu Shiji a note, but Yuen Long is different, Yuen Long poured a few mouthfuls, and then said with a bitter face: "There is a strict father in the family, and I have to ...... it."

Speaking of which, Yuen Long is also very sad, in the past, even if his own family was not good, there was still the Han Wangfu for him to come and go.

Now that his sister and brother-in-law live in the palace and have just entered Chang'an City, he doesn't dare to disturb often, let alone stay overnight in the inner courtyard of the palace.

He is now the boss, and he is no longer the offspring boy who will feel uncomfortable without being punched or kicked, and Grandpa can still pick up a stick and beat it, which is too much.

Wei Zheng looked at Xu Shiji's appearance and was a little worried, so he diverted the topic and said: "Mao Gong is old, he is still unmarried, and now he has become famous, why not ask the Yuan master to find a good marriage?" ”

Zhao Shixun glanced at Xu Shiji in surprise, and probably thought in his heart, this single dog is so deeply hidden, I don't even know it......

Hearing this, Xu Shiji sobered up a lot, Yuen Long over there was already nodding again and again, he was okay, and he was very willing to do this kind of work of connecting people and pulling bridges.

Then he said: "It's my negligence, the back house has been waiting for people to come, how can this be...... After a few days of gifts, I went to find someone to ask, and I was able to find a beautiful family for Mao Gong. ”

Zhao Shixun laughed enviously, raised his glass and grabbed a toast to Xu Shiji.

Xu Shiji hurriedly thanked him, with wine in his mouth, and said in a half-drunk and half-sober manner: "Thank you for your kindness, but Mao Gong already has it...... The person you like...... When I came back this time, I asked the principal to help me think about it, find a Chinese media, and go to the door to propose my relatives. ”

Several people were happy when they heard it, and they asked again and again, Xu Shiji pushed back and forth, but they didn't say it, so they all understood that either the other party was not an ordinary family, and it was very likely that they would not succeed in courting, and now that they said it, wouldn't it be embarrassing to be rejected by others?

The second is that Xu Maogong is too thin-skinned and ashamed to speak.

Well, the second one is negligible, the former, if you change it, you can't easily export it.

So a few people stopped asking, eating, drinking, talking, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

They are all people in the officialdom, there are too many things to talk about, Xu Shiji and Zhao Shixun are fighting abroad, and a few things in the army can arouse the interest of Yuen Long.
