Hungover didn't know the moon, vomiting and bitter others, Cui Hanzhang slept until noon on the second day before waking up, with a splitting headache.

When I opened my eyes and saw Mingwei lying on the side of the bed, breathing evenly, I couldn't help but feel guilty, so I quietly put on her coat and tiptoed to get out of bed to wash, but as soon as I got together, Mingwei woke up.

"You're awake, I'll pour you a cup of hot tea." Mingwei raised her head and was about to get up to pour tea, but was pulled by Cui Hanzhang and held in her arms.

"It's not that you don't have to wait for me, rest early. You choked last night, right? Hanzhang said to her silently.

"You still know how to toss people, you are drunk like mud, and you are still talking nonsense after being carried back by Cui Xuan." Mingwei said with a smile.

"This wine is really a poison that pierces the intestines, and now I still have a headache, good daughter-in-law help me rub it." Cui Hanzhang didn't dare to talk anymore, so he had to joke.

After lunch, I suddenly remembered the post I sent back to the four princes last night, and I was going to come to the door to make amends today, so I hurriedly instructed Cui Xuan to prepare the carriage.

At this time, Mingwei informed her that there was another prince in our Shenguang Dynasty, and the four princes were officially canonized as King Zekang by the Holy Lord early in the morning, and officially opened the mansion.

Cui Lang probably won't be able to squeeze in the door, and I heard that the people who gave gifts have lined up on Qingchuan Street.

"Great joy, we must send gifts and congratulations, and from then on, the four princes will open their mansions and build their teeth, and they will live in eight seats."

It is not a good thing to have a king Zekang who can sit on an equal footing with King Pingkang, and it is more comfortable to balance the situation of Taikang and be a courtier.

"By the way, one more thing, when you came back last night, there were a few more items on the carriage.

Cui Xuan said that it was a gift from King Pingkang and put it directly in the car. Speaking of which, it's all things you can use, a set of four treasures in the study. ”

"Regret should not be greedy, now I can't remember anything. If there is no merit, how can this thing be collected? ”

"Cui Xuan, you take it and take a look, check it, I'll find Cui Yun to return it." Cui Hanzhang couldn't help but pat his head and warned him that he would never dare to indulge in drinking again in the future.

"A Longwei inkstone from Wuyuan, Huizhou, a piece of Li Mo from Shexian County, a box of Tongcheng rice paper, and a set of Jiahu He Qinglian brushes.

Cui Lang, don't bother, I've seen everything, and it is estimated that no one is willing to use this set, and most of them are collected. ”

Mingwei recited the gift list very smoothly, but the more these words fell into Cui Hanzhang's ears, the more uncomfortable she became.

"With Cui Yun's eldest lady's temper, I heard that you are going to ask her to return the gift, I don't think I will see you." Mingwei jokingly told him that Cui Yun's side was basically not counted on.

"What then? We have received so many gifts for no reason, how can there be such a good thing as pie in the sky in the world. Don't say that the saint has not given a seal, that is, he has an official and a half-position, and when the time comes, he will have a short staff, and it will be difficult to do errands. "Cui Hanzhang first entered Taikang, after all, he was not used to such a treat and gifts, and he always felt unsteady.

"The atmosphere is like this, or how to say that the branches in Taikang City are intertwined. As for things, Lao Cui has a register, who can not have a red and white happy event, there is always a chance to return the courtesy, and the coming and going is not just the sophistication of human feelings.

They are just making friends early, and the little marquis Bai Yanqiu said something open, you are all friends this year, especially the first three people, Dong Baozhen and Gu Dingchen's family is estimated to be the same, if everyone is as worried as you, then our divine light is really Haiyan River clear. ”

Mingwei knew Taikang's feelings quite well, so she had to try her best to enlighten him first, and slowly follow the opportunity to return the gift, and returning the gift would only refute the face.

When Cui Hanzhang arrived at Zekang Wangfu by car, he opened his eyes, and saw that the team of gift-givers and congratulations were lined up a mile outside the door. provoked Cui Xuan to say helplessly: "Young master, it's not easy to give a gift, it is estimated that we will have to wait until one o'clock in the evening." ”

The most virtuous prince of the Shenguang Dynasty was crowned king, and naturally stirred up the situation in all directions, and for a while, the guests were like carp crossing the river, and Shilin students rushed to visit.

I heard that it was a visit from Cui Hanzhang, the new science detective, and the palace housekeeper made a special trip to greet him, and took Cui Hanzhang and the scholar to cross the queue and go directly to see King Zekang.

A cup of tea has not yet been drunk, and the king of Zekang outside the hall has not arrived, and the voice arrives first: "Brother Hanzhang was not interesting enough last night, Xishuiguan Yijia is the only one who lacks you Tanhualang." ”

Cui Hanzhang hurriedly got up and went out to greet him: "King Zekang, opening the mansion and building teeth, congratulations." Hanzhang had an appointment last night, and he came to the door today to make amends. ”

"Then you said, stay for a light meal tonight." King Zekang didn't say a word, and pulled Cui Hanzhang to the main hall,

"Let's go, I'll introduce you to a few friends, it just so happens that they will all be in the house."

As soon as he walked into the main hall, Bai Yanqiu saw Cui Hanzhang walking with Youyin. Bai Yanqiu got up and greeted him, grabbed Cui Hanzhang and said:

"I said Tanhualang, I didn't see you in Xishuiguan last night, what's wrong? My younger siblings are not allowed to go out, so this is a strict wife? ”

"The little marquis said to be funny, Hanzhang really had something to do last night and couldn't leave, didn't he come here to make amends." Cui Hanzhang only needs to clasp his fists and salute.

"This is what you said, you have to have an attitude of making amends, let's not get drunk tonight, whoever runs is the grandson." Bai Yanqiu was unforgiving, his lips flew up and down, and everyone laughed loudly.

"The little marquis is obviously a trick for someone Cui, the guest is as he pleases, today he naturally respects King Zekang, let's not overstep the bounds." Cui Hanzhang didn't plan to fall into Bai Yanqiu's trap, and kicked the ball to King Zekang, thinking that he was known as a virtuous king, and he should act in an orderly manner.

"Hanzhang don't be afraid of him, the brothers don't fight for wine, they have to be careful." King Zekang seemed to understand Hanzhang's distress and said to reassure him.

After Bai Yanqiu heard this, everyone laughed, their expressions were full of jokes, and they echoed: "Yes, let's go to the heart, go to the heart." ”

Although Cui Hanzhang couldn't understand the situation, he always felt that Bai Yanqiu, this kid, was making a mistake, and he was suspicious in his heart.

After everyone sat down, King Zekang introduced him one by one, and everyone in the hall saluted each other.

I couldn't help muttering in my heart, "Didn't you say that the Imperial Historian didn't like to make friends with the princes the most?" ”

Speaking of this person, he was the one who started the dispute over the order of etiquette ten years ago.

Originally, the matter was just an internal dispute within the Imperial History Observatory of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Ziyu openly questioned the Ministry of Rites in the court, which caused Bai Zhiguang, who was then a worshipper to be the left attendant, to ridicule him.

The dignified and upright three-grade officials naturally couldn't stand the attack of the little official, and turned the spearhead to the imperial historian An Ningguo, who would have thought that An Ningguo's old scheming and calculating from beginning to end looked on coldly and did not end up.

Above the court, there has never been a shortage of quarrels and quarrels. Emperor Jialong has always been tolerant, adhering to the principle of not distinguishing between reason, and acquiescing to the debates between his courtiers.

The saint was noncommittal at first, but seeing the situation getting worse, he even provoked the ten masters of the Taiyuan to write an article to refute the Ministry of Rites for only talking about the order and ignoring the etiquette ethics, which for a time attracted the support of the academies from all over the world.

Although it ended with the Holy Lord's statement of support for the Ten Masters of the Taiyuan, the impact of this matter was quite far-reaching, so that it laid the groundwork for the controversy of the Hundred Schools of Succession in later generations.

And the official who provoked the big debate storm at that time, although he was reprimanded by the saint and thought about it behind closed doors, he quickly became famous with this matter.

In comparison, Bai Zhiguang, the left attendant of the former Ministry of Rites, was exterminated because of the fraud in the imperial examination, and his bones were buried in the wilderness, which is already a piece of loess.

Yutai Ziyu climbed all the way to the fourth grade of the imperial history of Zhongcheng, the imperial history of the young horse, so beautiful, tonight is to become the guest of King Zekang.

Speaking of which, Yutai Ziyu was only the one hundred and first in the second class of Jialong's ten years, and he didn't know what good luck he had, so he was not released and stayed as the official of the imperial history.

If this is not a smooth progress, Yutai Ziyu is enough to shame the sons of the Taikang family. The hairpin family has a valuable character, but it often loses the bloody nature of colliding with the rubble.

This incident was also relayed by Cui Hanzhang when he followed Mr. Lou to teach, so he remembered the name of Yutai Ziyu deeply. Hanzhang only remembered that every time Mr. Lou talked about this matter, he remembered it vividly, as if he was personally involved.

At the beginning of the lanterns, everyone sat down, and naturally it was inevitable to push the cup and change the lamp. Maybe it's Hanzhang and you who have first met each other, and everyone is enthusiastic and frequently toasts.

But after two rounds, Cui Hanzhang felt that something was wrong, didn't he say that he was so careful, why did everyone aim at him. It was as if he were a firefly in the night, shining brightly and ignoring everyone else.

Cui Hanzhang was quite helpless, but seeing that King Zekang didn't say anything, he had to pick up the wine glass and walk towards Bai Yanqiu, and while toasting, he asked in a low voice: "Didn't you say that you don't want to fight for wine, but only go to the heart?" Why is this coming at me? ”

"Haha, Brother Cui, you don't understand, it's our tradition of drinking, and the meaning of being distracted means that you have to talk about the girl in your heart when you drink it, so that you can show that you are distracted. When the time comes, I'm not afraid that what you say is not my brother and sister, and our brothers can all be trusted. is the so-called true affection, full of wine. Come on, dry this glass. Bai Yanqiu had a gloating expression, drank the wine in the cup, and poured the empty wine glass.

He is not an immortal cultivator who eats Xia and drinks dew, but an ordinary man who burns porcelain in the kiln since he was a child, but he is quite pyrotechnic, so when he heard Bai Yanqiu's words, he really wanted to jump to his feet, and scolded his mother in his heart.

Looking at everyone's natural expressions, Cui Hanzhang had no choice but to give the wine, and drank it in one gulp, and he couldn't say that he was dumb and bitter after eating Coptis chinensis.

"Brother Hanzhang, don't panic, all of you here are Sven people, Yan Qiu has always been the master who doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, and today everyone is drinking friends and drinking well." Zekang Wang Youyin smiled and comforted him.

There is a field where Bai Yanqiu is there, and it is always the pleasure of the guests and hosts. If he falls down, no one will be able to stand and speak.

If it is said that Qin Siyang, the little son of the king of Luyang, is a desperate San Lang in the wine field, then Bai Yanqiu, the little marquis of Lingwu, is the master who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger, and they are all famous second ancestors, and they are all masters who can't be provoked in Taikang City.

Bai Yanqiu's mantra is: "Taikang is small, and the sun and moon are long in the pot." ”

was drunk and didn't know the way back, and when Mingwei saw that Cui Xuan was carrying him into the door again, she couldn't help but worry. If you drink it like this, Cui Lang's body will have to be drunk.

But thinking of the name and future of Xianggong's poem, he smiled helplessly.......

In the morning, the magpie branches kept making trouble, and the heavy sleep did not kill the wine, poor Cui Hanzhang was woken up by Mingwei, saying that the Ministry of Rites sent someone to notify the new science and technology scholars to enter the court to listen to the seal.

Although he was top-heavy, he didn't dare to slack off, and after quickly washing his face with cold water, he went straight to the Guanghua Hall in the palace.

The early dynasty discussed two things, one is that the official department Shangshu will play the seal of one hundred and three new science and technology scholars, and the second and third hundred according to the previous practice, all of them are sent to the local magistrates, and the nearest ones are in the vicinity of Taikang, Jin'an, Qingyuan, Jiahu and other three prefectures, and the far ones go to Yuanxiang, Jingchu, Hejian, Guchuan and other places.

However, they all follow the principle of different places of origin and different places of origin, so they have never seen any cases of returning to their original places of origin to be parents and officials.

This year is different from the past, the appointment of the first three people is quite novel, and Dong Baozhen, the champion of the new department, was directly sent to Hejian Mansion to be the same knowledge, a precedent for a hundred years.

A champion Lang returned to his place of origin and was known as the five products. Speaking of a higher match than the previous champions, in the past, the first class entered the Taiyuan as a revisionist, but it was only the sixth grade, but it was the first case of directly sending out the local deputy position.

At this time, Dong Baozhen's mood was not too excited, at least it was the second time he had heard the news of his appointment as a fellow acquaintance in Hejian.

Last night, the saint announced that he summoned the champion of the new department to Shulanxuan, and the saint placed high hopes on him between his words, saying that the burden of the Hejian Mansion was handed over to him, and the people of the river were fierce, and they needed to be educated by following the good temptation.

Dong Baozhen is no longer ignorant and reckless, but he has not lost his enthusiasm, and when he is grateful, he vows to win the hearts of the people from all over the world.

The new branch list is more conventional to join the Taiyuan as the six-grade revision, but the Taiyuan with the most ceremonial voice in the Shenguang Dynasty served as the editor, which actually laid a good foundation and deep connections for the future career development. With the prestige of the Jiahu Gu family, his appointment as the editor of the Taiyuan is the right choice.

What makes hundreds of officials even more incomprehensible is the sealing of the new science and technology exploration flower, and the appointment of Cui Hanzhang as the military selection officer of the Ministry of War, is the sixth product, and at the same time serves as Shulanxuan's walking.

This seal is also the first case in a hundred years, the imperial examination Jinshi Tan Hua Lang directly entered the military attache sequence, as the military selection of the military department of the foreign lang, although it is barely a military attache sequence in the civilian position, but also granted Shu Lanxuan to walk, which everywhere shows unreasonable, Shu Lanxuan walking is the first case in this dynasty.

The emperor's heart is unpredictable, and the saint has his own clever plan, so the ministers and officials have to comfort themselves and explain in this way.

Although the military selection officer Wailang is insignificant in the military department, this Shulanxuan walking is very famous.

At least Liu Zhilun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, would not be able to walk freely, and if he hadn't been summoned by the Holy Lord, the ministers and hundreds of officials would naturally have no chance to enter the Holy Study.

As for Cui Hanzhang, who was entitled, he hadn't figured out what the official position of the martial arts elector Wailang was in his mind for the time being, but looking at the expressions of the ministers looking at each other, he somewhat understood in his heart that this was the love of the saints, and the three of them knelt down to thank him for receiving the decree.

Another court discussion is the assassination case of Qionglin Banquet, which caused a storm in the city a while ago, and the first-class Lingwu Marquis Bai Juque commander Jin Yuwei Commander, the military department Shangshu, and the former general of the Yulin Military Palace jointly investigated and handled the case.

This morning, the case was found to be the water saucer of the Beihu Green Water Camp, five years ago disguised and mixed into Taikang waiting for the opportunity to assassinate, three years ago, the personnel replacement caused by the accidental capsizing of the dragon boat of the treasure boat of Jinmingchi, was found by these water saucers to find an opportunity to infiltrate the Jinmingchi Siyuan Bureau and Shangshan Prison, and has been hidden until now, cooperating with the Beihu army to assassinate the saint.

This group of assassins had been planning for a long time, and they opened the furnace privately and forged the three-edged sharp knives of weapons, intending to confuse the public and draw the world's attention to the remnants of the king of Yanbei.

Among them, the fugitive assassin is the leader of the water saucer, and in addition to the leader, he also arrested and received two people in the hook bar at the entrance of the vegetable market in the west of the city, one of whom was killed on the spot, and the other was seriously injured and captured, and was sent to the prison.

Under severe torture, the mouth of the water dish was pried open, and the Green Water Camp was a one-line connection, and the upper and lower levels only recognized the tokens and did not recognize the people, so this person did not know much, but only explained that they were a group of people who entered the country five years ago by selling Beihu horses.

"The ministers and others have seized all the more than 20 people in the Jiang family's trading firm's Xiangma Street store that sold horses in Beihu five years ago, and are awaiting trial."

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart.

When the ministers of the court heard the Jiang family's firm, they were shocked, and they couldn't help but look at Jiang Yunlang, the right attendant of the military department, who really pulled out the radish and brought out the mud.

Jiang Yunlang has a burly physique, a white face and a beard, and has always been well-known in the court, and his reputation is quite good. At this time, the minister who was good friends with him pinched a cold sweat in his heart.

I saw that he reacted quickly and quickly went out and knelt down to plead guilty. shouted in his mouth: "The commercial bank at home does not pay attention to the employment of people, and there is no way to discipline it, so it will be strictly investigated and investigated, and an explanation will be given to the court." ”

The Holy Lord didn't pay too much attention to this, but continued to stare at Lingwu Hou, as if he was very dissatisfied with his failure to capture the assassin leader so far, and the entire Guanghua Hall was silently dropped.

Looking at Emperor Jialong, whose complexion was getting worse and worse, the ministers were stunned, and they didn't dare to gasp, for fear of touching the saint's mold at this time.

"Kun Baichuan, what is Jin Yuwei doing? Blockading Taikang City for me, can't even hold a Beihu Lushui Camp water saucer? Emperor Jialong threw the chapter directly on the main hall and scolded Kun Baichuan and the others.

"I will give you another five days, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death, and after five days, it will be either you or him, and I will sacrifice the flag to the army of my Northern Expedition." After Emperor Jialong gave another decree, he left the Guanghua Hall without looking back, leaving a hall of ministers.

Bai Juque and Liu Zhilun also felt gloomy, even hot, although the saint did not roar at the two of them, but in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, this sentence was scolded in their hearts.

From beginning to end, the saint did not glance at Jiang Yunlang, who was kneeling on the ground and pleading guilty. The ministers glanced at the right attendant of the military department who was still kneeling to plead guilty, shook his head helplessly, and gradually dispersed.

.....................

Until the second watch, Ying Gonggong returned to Guanghua Hall to proclaim: "Jiang Yunlang, the right attendant of the military department, has no way to govern the family, and he will find out the case within five days, and he will be grounded for another month, and he will think about it behind closed doors." ”
