Chapter 220: Temperament is natural
Although he has entered the palace many times, Yue Qianqiu is still the first time to come to Daqing Palace. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 On both sides of the main hall is a long corridor that is hundreds of steps long from east to west, but fortunately, there is no undulating terrain, that is, it is a little longer, and it is not difficult to walk.
And the three prime ministers in front of him, Zhao Qingya is sixty-two years old, Old Lady Yue is sixty-seven years old, and Pei Xu is fifty-eight years old.
Zhao Qingya is elegant, Pei Xu is graceful, only when the old lady Yue walks is not like other high-ranking officials, his hands swing, he can throw the wide sleeves smoothly, he is with his hands in the sleeves, and his back is straight, but at this time he is not like an old farmer in the countryside who has an extra three or five buckets, but more like an arrogant landlord who looks down on people when he has a rich family.
At present, it is not like the noise when everyone gathered at Xuande Gate before, but only the sound of footsteps, the sound of clothes rubbing, and there is no sound of head to ear. Because of this, when Yan Xu's voice came suddenly, he was concentrating on examining the floor pattern, pondering these blue brick-shaped Yue Qianqiu couldn't help but be startled.
"Qianqiu, this corridor starts from the left and right dragon gates, a total of sixty rooms, the distance to the Daqing Hall is indeed a little farther, it is said that when it was originally built, it was built in imitation of the dragon head road of the Ming Hall in the Sui Dynasty, but it was not so high as the madness, and it was possible to save some effort when climbing, otherwise it would ......"
"Otherwise, we old things will be exhausted from the last time." Old lady Yue answered the conversation with a smile, and then glanced at the two colleagues and opponents on the left and right, "It's just that even this flat corridor is not so easy to walk." Think about it 30 years ago, it seems that there was a senior of the political affairs hall here who fell down on the road because of a rainy day, and he didn't get up? ”
Pei Xu hated itchy. Old horseman, you obviously know that it is an old ancestor of my Pei family!
But before he could sneer at him, Zhao Qingya coughed lightly and said: "Okay, it's almost here, save some energy to go to Daqing Hall to quarrel and fight, and now it's serious to look at the steps and walk." Ah Xu too, next time you are free, you can take your apprentices to visit the palace, and I won't say a word at this time! ”
Zhao Qingya has deep qualifications, except for the old lady Yue, he can directly call Yan Xu's name on this occasion, and he is the only one who dares to call Yan Xu's name directly.
Although Yan Xu said that he did his own thing, he still gave a little bit of thin face to the Prime Minister, after all, he wanted his mother to trick him into taking the top prize, but in addition to taking the bull man who won the battle and won the champion in the early years of the Wu Dynasty as an example, he took Zhao Qingya as an example for him, so he closed his mouth with a lot of face.
He didn't speak, the old lady smiled and continued to walk forward slowly, and Pei Xu could only stop stupidly.
In the face of this dark war that suddenly broke out and ended abruptly, Yue Qianqiu didn't dare to mix in casually, so he could only shrug his shoulders.
Compared with these three prime ministers, there are also Yan Xu and Yue Qianqiu's master and apprentice, and the positions of Xiao Fat Man and Li Chongming's uncle and nephew are even a little behind.
The children of the royal family in this dynasty do not have such great privileges, and the little fat man is not the prince, and Li Chongming is even shorter than half a cut, so the prime ministers of the three political affairs halls who have all broken through the sky with qualifications and connections, they have to salute when they see each other on the road, and their positions in the court are even a few points behind.
This is the meaning of the so-called Chongxian.
As for letting Yan Xu and Yue Qianqiu...... In the eyes of the little fat man, Yue Qianqiu is helping the old lady Yue, how can he rob people? Yan Xu is a cousin, and there is a super difficult to mess with the eldest princess of Dongyang, he can't wait to be a bodhisattva, why provoke?
Therefore, the emperor's only son, the nephew of the emperor's new promotion, or grandson, all established a positive and glorious image of respecting the old and the virtuous in front of the hundred officials.
Although it is the first time to go to the court, the more Qianqiu has the old lady to mention the point, and there is a strict Xu who does not hesitate to spend energy to constantly mention the point, even if he has not experienced special etiquette training in the court, when he walked through the corridor and entered the Daqing Palace, which is claimed to be able to accommodate tens of thousands of people, but in fact, hundreds of people poured in together to squeeze enough, he took the initiative to retreat behind Li Chongming, but he barely made any big mistakes.
What's even more fortunate is that although there are a lot of messy names in the previous dynasty this year, there is no need to be a kowtow worm!
After the short pilgrimage, it was time to officially enter the recital. Unlike Yue Qianqiu's expectation, the old man or Yan Xu personally lifted the lid, but there was a young official he had never seen before, with a dignified appearance and a loud voice, who stood up and used a subdued tone to show the defection of the thirty-five people under Xu Houcong, the head of the Shengong Sect.
It wasn't until this moment that Yue Qianqiu realized that he had forgotten to ask how many people there were in the Divine Bow Gate.
Now that the Xuandao Hall has only been rebuilt for six years, Yan Xu has also accepted a large number of registered disciples for him to be his junior disciples, and Liu Jingxuan and Dai Jinglan have also accepted several apprentices.
Therefore, there are seventeen or eighteen people in the second generation, and the third generation counts from Sun Li downwards, there are teenagers and children, but because the second generation of disciples are all pit goods that they have not yet mastered, Yue Qianqiu and Sun Li are half masters, and they have no formal teachers. In this way, the number of people in the Xuandao Hall is already approaching the sixty mark.
And Xu Houcong worked hard, fooled or coerced those who defected to Beiyan, a total of thirty-five? Did the others all die on the road, or did the Divine Bow Gate really fall to these people?
When the young official finished speaking, Yue Qianqiu heard a stern voice in his ears.
"That's a person specially selected by Honglu Temple, you can use it as a mouthpiece, no matter which yamen plays it, he will convey it in public. After all, it would be too embarrassing to let those old adults roar so loudly that everyone in the hall could hear them. Don't look at the job of such a microphone, but because it is the most exposed, it is generally either with a deep background or at the top. ”
Yue Qianqiu glanced left and right, and seeing that the others were not aware of it, he immediately realized that it was Yan Xu who had revealed his mastery again. After being surprised, he immediately understood Yan Xu's extraneous sound.
The people with a deep background are the children of the family, and the top of the ranking is the new jinshi from a poor family, all in all, in general, there is nothing to do at the grassroots. But the next moment, he realized how wrong he was
"Not long after your eldest uncle became an official in the court, he served as this mouthpiece."
Yue Qianqiu is really amazed. I think that the old lady Yue didn't have time to train his son to read and read to the top of the Jinshi, and the eldest master could be said to be the bottom of the ranking. The Yue family's background is too poor, and the old man was not a big official at that time, except for marrying his eldest son a noble wife who can live at home and have an aura when he goes out, he can only seize the opportunity to push people into officialdom, which is far inferior to today's Yue Tingzhong and Yue Xiuyi father and son.
Even so, the old man can still push the eldest son to such a noble position?
Yue Qianqiu was familiar with these details that he had never known from Yan Xu, but Master Yue had already seen clearly the next person who jumped out - that was the nephew of Pei Xu, the third phase of the Political Affairs Hall.
When people impassionedly demanded that the defection of the Shengong Gate be investigated, and at the same time closely monitored the various factions who gathered in Jinling City, etc., and added stricter suppression clauses when revising the Wupinlu, and held accountable those who had previously initiated the rebuilding of the Wupinlu, he stood up.
"The shadow of the cup bow and snake, because of choking, wasted food, it is a person like Pei Yushi."
Just now I saw that my grandfather and old god were there, and at this time, the eldest uncle had already stood up in person, and Yue Qianqiu couldn't help but touch his chin with great interest. You must know that he has long understood the ability of the eldest wife, but the eldest uncle has never been inconspicuous, and this is the first time that he has directly confronted the other party and people, and he is indeed full of interest.
But immediately after, he found that his desire to watch the play was disappointed.
Because, without waiting for Pei Yushi, who had been criticized by the eight-character idiom, to fight back, the eldest master turned his head to look at him: "What a young man can see clearly, Pei Yushi, a person in his early forties, still can't see clearly, he is really blind to Pei's former fame!" ”
"Yue Zongqi, you should have a limit to boasting about your nephew!"
"How can I brag about my nephew?" Lord Yue raised his eyebrows, his face was both innocent and puzzled, "What I praise is the fact that His Royal Highness the King of England was in the Xuandao Hall of Stone Mountain yesterday, and he said something that fixed people's hearts. Could it be that Pei Yushi hasn't heard of it? ”
The little fat man was stunned for a moment, but he didn't have time to be ecstatic because the eldest master suddenly gave him a very high evaluation, because he suddenly saw that hundreds of pairs of eyes in the hall were all focused on him in an instant. Even if his speech yesterday was indeed to make a name for himself in the martial arts, it did not mean that he was willing to go against these many civil officials.
Therefore, the little fat man said without hesitation: "Lord Yue praised it falsely, yesterday it was Yue Xiaojiu who drove away Lord Shen of Wude Si and saved the disciples of the Shengong Sect." Who among the disciples of all factions now doesn't praise the senior brother of Xuandaotang for his natural temperament and unparalleled benevolence and righteousness? ”
