Chapter 235: Shangdu Jinyuan
Everyone was silent, and retreated one after another, the purple-shirted housekeeper became more and more proud when he saw this, and after retreating from everyone, he pointed the finger at Li Mao, and asked with a smile: "What is your name, where is your hometown, I missed the errand, and I can't live now, and I will take you as a cushion when I die." You come with me. ”
Reaching out to grab Li Mao, Mo Qi had a tricky hand, grabbed his wrist, and with a push, the man stepped back more than ten steps before standing firmly, and his face suddenly swelled like a piece of pig's liver.
He sat down on the ground, wailed and cried, and cried: "Father-in-law, your son has no ability, he has eaten you for so many years, and he wanted to buy a big urn to honor you, but he was bullied by the villains, and his son is no longer alive, and his son is no longer alive." ”
said that he was going to jump under the original if he didn't live, Qingmo wanted to stop him, Li Mao said: "Let him go, I can't help but accompany him with my life." ”
When the housekeeper heard this, he immediately stopped, turned around and pointed at Li Mao and said: "The beauty you think, what is my identity, what is your identity, your ten lives can't be exchanged for a single hair of Lao Tzu." He said that he still sat down, patted his thighs, and sang loudly and in a low voice.
When everyone saw him pustuple, they all secretly laughed. At this time, Li Jie stepped forward, took out a red gold bead and threw it in front of him, the man saw it, he was surprised, and hurriedly turned around, knelt on the ground, held the bead with both hands, and just kowtowed.
This kind of red gold bead is not legal tender like the golden nose worm in Hebei, but it is often used as currency, a gold bead is worth about three times, it is very valuable, and because of its light weight, it is easy to carry, and it is very popular among the princes and grandchildren.
The shot is a red gold pearl, this person is not an extraordinary person, the housekeeper has been in the capital for many years, and he has also learned some skills to recognize people, seeing that although Li Jie's clothes are ordinary, his temperament is extremely noble, and he is a little afraid in his heart.
Although Li Mao and Qingmo were full of smiles and grins, their eyes were full of terrifying strength, and the magic power with them was not only a long tiger's back and a bear's waist, but his eyes were as fierce as a wolf.
I have a father-in-law in Chang'an to take care of me, so naturally I don't need to be afraid of them, but there is still a long way to go from Chang'an, and I really offended these three Hades, and it would be too cost-effective to lose my little life.
His big urn is indeed used to give away, but it is not the flying dragon envoy, but the flying dragon envoy under the door is not very good fake, in addition, the gift is his own temporary idea, the so-called icing on the cake, not in the snow to send charcoal must be sent, broken will be broken, or his life. Now a noble person has come forward to mediate, and he has obtained this bead, and he will accept it when he sees it, and he will accept it when he sees it.
He wiped his face, stood up, hunched his waist, and smiled a little flatteringly, and Li Jie spoke to him impatiently, and took two gold beads to the coachman, and asked him to push the broken cart under the cliff.
After a bang, the road that had been blocked all day was finally cleared, and everyone applauded.
Li Jie clenched his fists and looked around, calmly moving forward, and continued on his path.
Qingmo pursed his lips and said, "This little brother is so generous, what's the matter." Li Mao smiled but did not speak.
Come to Tongguan at dawn, this pass is near the Yellow River in the north, and is close to the Kunshan Mountain in the south, known as the first Xiongguan in the world. Li Mao has been famous for a long time, so it is natural to take this opportunity to visit. In recent times, the Kwantung Domain has repeatedly rebelled, and the imperial court fears that the westward advance of the rebellious army will endanger the safety of the hinterland of Chang'an.
Therefore, Tongguan is strictly guarded inside and outside, and there are forbidden areas everywhere, and the places for tourists to visit are very rare. Li Mao wanted to go to the top of the city to take a look, but he was refused, and spent money to bribe the guard, but the guard hesitated again and again, but returned the money.
……
Chang'an, the heart of the Tang Dynasty, was once the capital of the world, and the starting point of the eastern end of the Silk Road, which stretched for thousands of miles.
Before the founding of the Tang Dynasty to the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty stood at the top of all the countries in the world, and Chang'an was a veritable world capital.
An Anshi Rebellion made the Tang Dynasty fall from the peak into the abyss, and the world's first throne was surrendered to the Arab Empire. The country was weakened, the capital of the world was no longer glorious, and in the fifteenth year of Tianbao, An Lushan's rebels captured Chang'an.
Anshi Rebellion Tang lost Hexi Longyou, the old enemy Tubo approached Chang'an, the first year of Guangde, Tubo 200,000 troops captured Chang'an, Daizong hunted Xianyang.
The most recent fall of Chang'an was in the fourth year of construction, Tang Tianzi transferred Jingyuan troops to Huaixi to quell the rebellion, when passing through Chang'an, the soldiers hated the unfair treatment, and mutinied angrily, Jingyuan Jiedu made Zhu Zhu according to Chang'an called the emperor, the country name Qin, the year name Yingtian, the first year of Tang Xingyuan, and changed the country name Han, the year name Emperor.
This change is known as the "Jingshi Change", but it was just more than 20 years ago.
Or because of too high expectations, Li Mao did not have a good impression of this famous city, in his eyes, Chang'an was as prosperous as Yunzhou, and the vitality was not as good as Dengzhou, and the whole city was more like a huge and unfriendly barracks.
After entering Chang'an, Li Jie no longer hid his identity, and he admitted that he was the youngest grandson of today's son - Li Jie, the king of Yun'an County.
Li Jie concealed his title, but his name was true, and he checked it carefully, everything he said was actually true, he said that he was an idle official with good treatment in Beijing, but nothing to do, and said that his father was also a Qingwang official who seemed to be respected, but in fact had no power.
His father is the current crown prince Li Yu, who is indeed a "high-ranking official" with a clear status but no real power.
Li Mao declined Li Jie's invitation, did not go to the county king's mansion with him, and made an appointment to visit him another day.
This proposal is exactly what Li Jie wants, even if you are the king of the county, you can't just take a stranger back to the house, this is the royal rule.
Li Mao and the three of them first found an inn to stay, rested for a day, recuperated their spirits, and only went to Ziqingping Lu Army Garrison Shangdu Jinju Academy to visit Wang Bingchen, the prefect of the academy, in the morning of the next day.
After the Tang Dynasty, each province had a concert hall in Chang'an, which was used to deliver the public and convey the information of the imperial court, and was also used to pick up and drop off officials who came to Beijing on business and handled the exchange of flying money.
In addition, the Jinsoin also had the task of collecting the dynamics of the capital and the imperial court, and acting as the eyes and ears of the main way.
Therefore, the officials who serve as the prefects are not only capable, but also must be the confidants and cronies of the Jiedu envoys.
Wang Bingchen as early as when Li Shigu's father Li Na was in power, he was stationed in Ziqing to enter the theater to run errands, after Li Shigu took charge of the Ziqing Ping Lu Army, he still trusted him, and for more than ten years, the position of the prefect was unbreakable.
However, in recent years, Wang Bingchen's mind has been a little budding, and he will turn sixty years old in the New Year, and his energy is declining, and it is difficult to cope with the complicated affairs of the Shangju Academy, and there are three roads in front of him:
Keep going, do your best and die;
ruled by inaction, and when there was a big mess under the rule, he was dismissed by Li Shigu;
The rapids retreated bravely, taking advantage of the opportunity to find a way out for themselves.
After many years of fighting in Chang'an, Wang Bingchen pretended to be generous to the public, and really made friends with some powerful people, and someone pointed out a clear way for him, asking him to submit his resignation to Yunzhou, break away from the Ziqing system, and then try to operate it to the eastern capital Luoyang as the imperial historian.
The imperial history platform of the eastern capital is called the east platform, and the Chang'an imperial history platform has the same imperial history doctor, the imperial history Zhongcheng, and three imperial history.
After Xuanzong, the imperial historian was not permanent, and the imperial historian led the affairs of Taiwan.
Dongtai Yushi Dafu, the official rank from three, high but no real power, usually used to solve the problem of the rank of the old and low-ranking officials, in this position for a few years, you can basically return to the hometown for the elderly.
From the shogunate of the feudal town to the three high-ranking officials of the imperial court, such an official life can be regarded as complete, and there are no regrets. (Dissertation College)
