A new director has been hired in the Ministry of Rites, and it is known to everyone in less than half a day.

The affairs of the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Punishment have long made him famous, but what the officials of the Ministry of Rites did not expect was that after leaving the Ministry of Justice, he actually took the initiative to choose the Ministry of Rites.

The reason why the officials of the Ministry of Rites are so familiar with him is not only because the name of his broom star is already known all over Beijing, but also because the grievances between this Tang director and the Tang family where Tang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is located have been circulated in dozens of versions in Beijing.

The Ministry of Rites is nothing to others, but to him, it is the Longtan Tiger's Den.

I don't know if his actions this time can be regarded as self-defeating or sheep, in short, before he officially joined the army, the officials of the Ministry of Rites have been instructed, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites can turn a blind eye to him, especially the Department of the Ancestral Department, which has received a key warning.

Ancestral hall duty.

It would be annoying to keep drawing circles on the paper, Tang Ning put down the pen, stood up again, walked to the front of the ancestral hall Langzhong, and asked: "Liu Langzhong, I don't know what I need to do in this ancestral hall?" ”

Liu Langzhong looked at him and said with a smile: "My ancestral hall doesn't have any official business on weekdays, if Director Tang is bored, you can look at the official documents of the ancestral hall and familiarize yourself with official affairs first." ”

The affairs of the ancestral hall are very miscellaneous, such as the ancestral shrine and the sacrifice, the astronomical omission, the national taboo and the temple, the divination medicine, and the ...... of the Taoist Buddha, all of which are within the scope of the ancestral department's authority.

But there have been no major sacrificial activities recently, and other small things have their own arrangements from small officials, and all Tang Ning can do is wait for the official document and wait for the lower office.

Host and Guest.

The host and guest department is a very special department in the Ministry of Rites, which is only responsible for receiving envoys from other countries and is in charge of diplomatic affairs with other countries, but many times, there are no envoys from other countries in Beijing during the year, and the host and guest department will be reduced to an idle yamen.

However, from today on, the most idle yamen of the Ministry of Rites has become the busiest yamen of the Ministry of Rites.

The princess marries all kinds of etiquette, need to be arranged one by one, and verified many times, can not make any mistakes, the host and guest, is appointed as the marriage envoy, the responsibility is heavy, this time with the princess to the Chu State, if everything goes well, after returning, in a few years, will definitely be promoted.

In the main and guest division, in a government room, the officials are consulting the classics and formulating the etiquette regulations.

During the intermission, a host and guest rubbed his sour eyes and asked in a low voice, "You say, what did that person want to do when he chose our Ministry of Rites this time?" ”

Another said: "He must be trying to find trouble with Tang Shangshu, but he is destined to be disappointed this time." ”

"He also thought that this was the Criminal Department and the Household Department, and he could let him toss, I don't know what Tang Shangshu would do to him, he and the Tang family, but they have a big enmity......"

"Ahem!" The host and guest wai Lang coughed heavily, glanced at everyone, and said coldly: "Tang Shangshu's matter, is it something you can discuss?" ”

was reprimanded by Shangguan, and several people immediately shut up.

One person looked left and right, and immediately changed the topic and said: "This time, Lord Wang was designated as the marriage envoy, and he must have a bright future, and when the time comes, once Lord Wang is promoted, Lord Zhang will not be long before he is promoted......

The host and guest Wai Lang showed a smile on his face, Wang Lang Zhong was appreciated by Lord Shangshu, if he did a good job of sending off his relatives, he would definitely be promoted when he came back, and when the time came, the host and guest division would be gone, and the most promising one would be his host and guest Wai Lang.

He glanced at everyone and said, "Work hard, if you can do this well, you will be indispensable!" ”

Leaving the room, he went straight to the room in the main room.

As a wedding envoy, the host and guest Lang were busier than everyone else, and the classics and books on the table were piled up very high, and when he saw Zhang Yuanwailang coming in, he hurriedly said: "Lord Zhang, you help me find the dossier of the marriage of those princesses to Chu State a few years ago, I remember that it was also our host and guest division at that time......"

Zhang Yuanwailang was about to speak, but suddenly covered his nose and frowned: "What smell?" ”

He followed the direction of the taste, and finally fixed his gaze on Wang Langzhong.

"Gollum ......"

After a strange sound, Wang Langzhong looked down at his body, smelled a foul smell in his nose, and after being stunned, his face changed greatly.

……

The yamen of the Ministry of Rites was not big in the first place, and the matter of the host and guest Lang pulling on his pants only took half an hour before he left.

Although people have three urgencies, as an adult, it is still extremely embarrassing for this kind of thing to happen.

Wang Langzhong had already finished taking a bath, changed his clothes, and when he returned to the host and guest division, his face was red.

The officials of the host and guest division naturally didn't dare to show any other expressions on their faces, offended the leader, and there was no good fruit for them to eat in the future, so they didn't even dare to look at him, and only buried their heads in reading the classics.

Holding a pile of files in his arms, Zhang Yuanwailang knocked on the door, walked into the room, and said, "Lord Wang, I have found all the files you want." ”

"Putting ......"

As soon as Wang Langzhong said a word, there was another "gurgling" sound in his abdomen, his face changed, and he immediately ran out of the duty room and ran in the direction of the thatched house.

An hour later, Wang Langzhong, who had been to the thatched house five times in a row, already needed the help of the little official to walk.

"Wang Lang is sick?" In the Shang study's room, Tang Huai put down his pen, looked at a small official of the Ministry of Rites and asked.

The little official nodded and said, "Master Hui Shangshu, Wang Langzhong is very weak now, and he needs help to walk. ”

The main and guest Lang Zhong's body can have problems at any time, but not now, delaying the marriage between the two countries, not only him, but even the Ministry of Rites can't afford this responsibility.

He looked at Liu Feng, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and said, "I will write an excerpt, you send someone to the palace, and ask Your Majesty to send an imperial doctor to help Wang Langzhong take a look." ”

Liu Feng arched his hand and said, "I'll go right away." ”

After sitting in the Ministry of Rites for a day, the gong sounded, and Tang Ning left the government by himself.

When he left, no one in the Ministry of Rites had moved, although the time of release was fixed, but when he could leave, the requirements of each ministry were different, and it depended on the meaning of Shangshu.

However, as a temporary worker, he does not have this limitation.

As I walked down the street, I saw a horse-drawn carriage in front of me.

Because I helped the Tai Hospital compile medical books before, I came and went in the carriage of the Tai Hospital, so I am no longer familiar with this.

He waved his hand, and the carriage stopped, and the people in the carriage lifted the curtain, and when they saw Tang Ning, they were stunned at first, and then said respectfully: "Ling Yihong has seen Uncle Shi......"

……

Ministry of Rites.

Liu Feng looked at Ling Yihong and asked cautiously, "Imperial Doctor Ling, what kind of disease is Wang Langzhong suffering from, is it serious?" ”

"Wang Langzhong is suffering from gastrointestinal diseases." Ling Yihong stroked the beard on his chin and said, "Although it is not a serious illness, if you leave it alone, you will also have to worry about your life." ”

Liu Feng arched his hand and hurriedly said, "Then please ask Imperial Doctor Ling." ”

Ling Yihong took a pen and wrote down a prescription and said: "Although the gastrointestinal disease is not a serious disease, it is extremely difficult to treat, and this medicine Lord Wang needs to take it for a month to recover. ”

Liu Feng was stunned and asked, "A month?" ”

Ling Yihong nodded and said, "Within this month, he needs to stay in bed to recuperate, drink more salt water, and remember not to be too tired, otherwise his life will be in danger." ”

Liu Feng looked at Wang Langzhong, who was lying in bed, before arching his hand to Ling Yihong and said, "It's hard to work hard for Ling Taiyi......"

After a while, in the Shang study, Liu Feng looked at Tang Huai and said, "A month is too long, the marriage is urgent, and after a month, the princess will set off, and she can't afford to delay it for a day." ”

Tang Huai thought for a while and said, "In that case, let's choose a new one for the envoy this time." ”

Liu Feng looked at him and asked, "But Your Majesty, how should we explain it?" ”

"Just tell the truth." Tang Huai stood up and asked, "Do you think that apart from Wang Langzhong, who else can be qualified for this errand?" ”

Liu Feng thought for a while and said, "Chen Zheng is also familiar with the etiquette system. ”

Not long after, in the Shang study, Chen Zheng arched his hand to Tang Huai and said, "Don't worry, your lordship, your lower officials will live up to your trust." ”

A moment later, Chen Zheng walked out of the study.

The cold wind blowing from nowhere made him shiver, and he couldn't help but wrap his clothes tightly.
