Hate the lack of peace and strategy, and be ashamed to worship the altar.

Holding Jin Yue cold, hanging iron clothes cold.

It is easy for the Lord to support, but it is difficult to repay the favor deeply.

The three sides are still quiet, how dare they suspend their officials.

—————————————— Gao Biao's "Words and Feelings"

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Gao Yue coughed lightly, a little embarrassed, he has never been very good at talking, but now that Duan Xiushi asked about the affairs of Jingzhou Fangqiu, he obviously didn't look at him as a bureaucrat who ate idle food, you have to show your real talents.

But I just arrived in Jingzhou, and what I know is only limited to some geographical chronicles, and I can't talk nonsense, if I say something wrong, then my reputation will stink, after all, I am doing things in the Fangzhen shogunate, and the fault tolerance rate is too low.

Gao Yue subconsciously pressed the book made of deerskin with his hand, and when Jiao Bochen saw it, he thought that the book next to Gao Yue's seat was an arrow bag, so he asked Gao Langjun if he could also draw a bow and shoot arrows, but he didn't know if he could open a two-stone bow.

Opening two stone bows is the assessment standard for the war bows of the town soldiers.

Jiao Bochen asked, and the rest of the generals all laughed faintly.

After thinking about it, Gao Yue solemnly said to Duan Xiushi on the seat, "The important task of preventing autumn, the scholar does not dare to speak lightly, let me be familiar with the affairs, and then report to the envoy after forming an order." ”

At this time, the generals of Jingyuan really let out an imperceptible cold snort, it seems that this is nothing more than that, white-faced Langjun, born as a scholar, does not know the border, just heard that he killed a famous Hui drunk in Chang'an East City, presumably it is just the courage of a horseman, and he is afraid that he will be overwhelmed soon, so he will be repatriated as soon as possible.

However, Duan Xiushi is quite lenient, "In this case, Gao Langjun will be able to see things in the Confucius Courtyard to the west of the mansion tomorrow, but the affairs in the mansion are complicated, Gao Langjun not only has to take care of Confucius, but also has the responsibility of patrolling and pushing officials, which is hard." Gao Langjun doesn't have to worry about the mansion problem, there are five four-frame rooms behind the Confucian Courtyard, which is enough for Gao Langjun and his wife to live, and I will make a row, so that the city Changxingfang will give Gao Langjun four official horses and two official health, which can be used. ”

After the banquet, Duan Xiushi's rationed official Jian held a torch, led the Shu horse ridden by Gao Yue, and walked step by step to the Alanta Temple in Waiguo.

Several Anxi generals from Jingyuan Town walked to the door of the West Chamber, looked at Gao Yue's back with disdain, and then whispered together, saying, "Tomorrow, let the important official use the case of Alanta Temple to kill this white-faced Langjun!" ”

In fact, Gao Yue was also thoughtful on horseback, and now that he has arrived in Jingyuan Town, he is no more cautious and cautious than in the capital, learn more and be less arrogant, do more and talk less.

As he walked, he suddenly heard the sound of loud music coming from the houses on the side of the road, and he couldn't help but follow the sound: I saw a house blocked by a wooden fence, and in the small hall inside, red candles were lit, and several women dressed in splendid clothes and with pink faces were playing with musical instruments. And there were soldiers guarding outside the wooden gate, and Gao Yue hurriedly saluted when he saw the horse.

"Who are these girls?"

The official Jian who led the way laughed and said that Lang Jun came from Shangdu after all, and our remote military town also has children from the Le Camp for the sake of banquets in the embassy, and Ma Zhenxi has forty girls in the Shi Le Camp, and now it has changed to Duan Envoy Jun, and it has been reduced to only five or six people, and the rest have all been cancelled and released.

Oh, I know, this is what Ah Ni said to him before, the so-called "camp prostitutes" raised by all towns, I heard Ah Ni say that her father's Xichuan shogunate raised hundreds of them, and sometimes they pulled relations with the ministers in the court, so they directly selected the most outstanding among them, dressed up and decorated, and sent them to the capital to the Jinjuan and then packed and bribed.

"Which one does Lang Jun like? You can ask the envoy directly. The two officials hurriedly asked.

"No, no." Gao Yue also hurriedly refused.

Back in the incense room of the temple, Yun Shao and Zhi Hui hurriedly came to greet Gao Yue, and the master and servant were playing long chess, waiting for him to come back!

Gao Yue then told his wife about the banquet.

Yun Shao also sat on the couch and said to Gao Yue: "Songqing, Ah Ni grew up in his father's Fang Town since he was a child, and he is also familiar with the inside story. When Song Qing was in the Jixian Institute in Beijing, although there were only six times in a month, it was better to be idle, and the shogunate was conquered, although the ringgit was rich, but once he entered the curtain, he had to deal with all kinds of affairs, and it was not easy. Gao Yue squeezed his wife's hand, "What Ah Ni said, so at today's banquet, the envoy asked me directly about the autumn season, and I knew that this town was not a place to be idle. ”

"Song Qing, you can do your best!" Yun Shao immediately grabbed her husband's arm and cheered Gao Yue up, full of confidence in her husband's ability.

"Yes, I'll take you to the house behind the Confucius Courtyard tomorrow, and don't forget to continue to make crispy ointment rings for me." Gao Yue wanted to tease his mother, so he took Ah Ni into his arms and said this.

When Yun Shao heard this, his face was full of horror, and he secretly thought, "It's over, it's over, this is in the boundary of Jingzhou, where can I buy the ointment ring of Qingwu store!" He secretly cast a distressed glance at Zhihui standing outside the door.

Zhi Hui turned her face away, and almost couldn't help laughing.

At sunrise and dawn the next day, Gao Yue rode a horse and prepared to go to Confucius Temple, Wei Daotian and two officials opened the road in front, and behind was the ox cart that Yun Shao was riding. ”

Under the green pine in front of the mountain gate of Alanta Temple, the abbot of the temple led a group of monks out, came to see them off respectfully, and asked Gao Yue in a green shirt by the way, "Lang Jun is the new Confucian official?" ”

"Exactly."

"Then I have to be the official of Jingzhou." The abbot seemed to be familiar with the situation in the embassy.

Gao Yue said that it should be like this.

The rest of the monks immediately looked at each other, and Gao Yue felt strange and asked what was the matter.

"Nothing, nothing." The abbot hurriedly smiled and clasped his hands and said.

Yun Shao, who was on the ox cart, raised his fat wrist, opened the curtain, and was about to look at the scene of Alanta Temple at sunrise, but saw a thin old monk standing there under the corridor of the scripture building, standing alone, staring at the figure of his husband, but looking at the abbot and other monks, they wanted to speak and stopped.

When Gao Yue arrived, it was time to see things, and Gao Yue hurriedly sat down in the seat - the office system of the Tang Dynasty was like this, and the Beijing officials went to the imperial city and the Daming Palace in the lawsuit, that is, they looked at things in the morning, ate at noon, and rested in the afternoon; However, the officials of the local prefectures and counties have to sit in the government once in the morning and once in the evening, and the burden is heavier than that of the Beijing officials; And the Fangzhen shogunate, as Yun Shao said, if there are many affairs, they will not be allowed to rest from morning to night, and the burden will be the heaviest. It is precisely because of this that most of the original scholars recruited from the Confucius Academy were unbearable and left one after another, so Gao Yue is now actually regarded as a "solitary official" in the entire Confucius Academy:

On the bookcase is the seal of the Jingyuan Embassy, which is supervised and used by Gao Yue, who is the "office director" of the palm print;

The grass-roots officials of the embassy, such as the drive and the other officials, constantly brought the official to him for checking, there were military supplies, the amount of money and food, the accounts of the soldiers, and the accounts of giving clothes, salt, and money, and he became the cashier and accountant;

In addition, there are official documents and letters sent by other towns, prefectures and counties, and even the central government, and he wants to check the errors and omissions in them, and he has become a correction for checking and checking mistakes;

Finally, there is a soldier Lan behind the bookcase, with a sharp sword on it, which is also one of Gao Kong's responsibilities - to supervise the military camp, eliminate the rebellion, if the soldiers make trouble, he will also use this sword to cut people!

Only then did Gao Yue realize that his role as a Confucian official was so colorful.
