The shopkeeper took Wei Renshi outside a courtyard and said, "Yu Gongzi, this courtyard will only live in my eldest son when he arrives in Chang'an, because it will not be used too often, so the place is not big. You're going to settle down first. ”

"It doesn't matter." Wei Renshi shook his head and smiled, "Just have a place to stay." By the way, haven't asked the shopkeeper your surname? ”

"Don't dare! Can't! The shopkeeper hurriedly said, "The small surname is Fang." ”

Wei Renshi nodded and said, "Shopkeeper Fang, I see that Brother Haiqing's family is doing a lot of business, and it is also a big business that can be ranked in front of Luoyang." There are also sea ships going to sea, how can they look at it in Chang'an, it seems that it is not as good as Luoyang. ”

Shopkeeper Fang smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from your son, doing business in Chang'an is no better than Luoyang." Our Jiaojia business name is mainly based in Luoyang, and there is only a façade in Chang'an, mainly to contact the main number in Luoyang, let's count a semicolon here. ”

"Chang'an's business is not good?" Wei Renshi was curious: "Chang'an is so prosperous, how can business be difficult?" ”

Shopkeeper Fang shook his head and said: "Chang'an is indeed prosperous, but it is indeed not good for us businesses with no background. This long Chang'an, but as long as the business can be bigger, which one is not supported by someone behind it? ”

Wei Renshi nodded. It seems that Yimenglou should not rush to Chang'an.

"There is usually no one living in this courtyard, and the eldest prince can't come a few times a year, and he only leaves in a few days. So I didn't deserve a subordinate. The shopkeeper Fang said to Wei Renshi: "The little one will send a few people from the business to listen to it later." ”

Wei Renshi shook his head and said, "No need, I don't usually need to be served." ”

Shopkeeper Fang beckoned again and helped Wei Renshi settle down. Yan Weiren really had a need in Chang'an, just give him orders, and then leave.

Ma Weilong and Gou Er cleaned up the house, and the three of them worked hard all the way, and they also urgently needed a good rest, so they also went to bed early.

Early the next morning, Wei Renshi asked Gou Er to find the address left by Mr. Zhang and told Mr. Zhang where he lived.

Because he didn't know when he would be summoned, Wei Renshi didn't dare to run around in the past few days, and he kept it in the Jiao family's small mansion.

In the meantime, even if you want to take a look around Chang'an City, you have to leave someone at home to guard, for fear of missing someone to pass the word.

But Wei Renshi seemed to have been forgotten, and there was no movement.

Under the boredom, I wandered around the West Market and the East Market every day, but I was familiar with these two cities.

Nearly half a month passed before someone finally came to the door. It was the palace attendant who came to summon Wei Renshi, so that Wei Renshi would meet him three days later.

Come to think of it, it was Mr. Zhang who reported this place.

Wei Renshi naturally has no experience in this. I don't know how to go to the court. So I went to Mr. Zhang's house a day in advance to ask for advice.

Since it is a court meeting, Master Zhang is the right counselor, and he is in Chang'an City, so he naturally has to participate. He just happened to be able to take Wei Renshi to the court with him at the court meeting.

That night, Wei Renshi simply stayed at Mr. Zhang's home.

In the early morning of the next day, Wei Renshi was woken up by the subordinates of Mr. Zhang's family. When I got up and looked outside, it was still dark, and it wasn't dawn yet!

The subordinate led him to the vestibule, Bachelor Zhang was already waiting there, the two of them hurriedly swallowed a few mouthfuls of food, the door of the workshop had not yet opened, Bachelor Zhang and Wei Renshi could only wait, after a while, they finally heard the sound of more drums, but the sky still couldn't see their fingers.

Mr. Zhang immediately pulled Wei Renshi out of the door and got into the carriage, and said to the coachman: "Hurry up, don't let the old man be late for the meeting!" ”

The driver responded with a sound, and with a whip of the horse, the carriage suddenly rushed out.

The door was open by the morning drum, and the carriage galloped out in the direction of the palace.

Along the way, but hearing the sound of horses' hooves outside from time to time, Wei Renshi held the carriage tightly to stabilize his bumpy tumbled body, while opening the curtain of the window to look outside.

In the confusion, I saw the carriage outside, and some people rushed directly from the side of the carriage with a whip on their horses, all in the same direction, all heading towards the imperial city.

Wei Renshi opened his mouth and said to Master Zhang: "Is this really going to the court, not to fight?" ”

Mr. Zhang laughed and said with a smile: "I haven't seen it!" Haha, the old man expected that you would be shocked by this battle in the court. In addition to the 'permanent staff', officials above the third rank go to the pilgrimage on the first, fifth, and ninth days of each month, and officials below the third rank go to the pilgrimage on the first and fifth days of each month. If the old man is in Chang'an, he will go to court on the morning of the first, fifth, eleventh, fifteenth, twenty-first and twenty-fifth days of each month. Don't dare to go to court too late, otherwise it will be a big crime. You have to enter the palace to see you, so you have to wait outside the palace before the time. However, your kid only has a title and no real position at the moment, and after today, if there is no saint summoning him, he does not need to participate in the early dynasty. ”

"That's good!" Wei Renshi heard the last sentence and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

When? No wonder it's called "Dianmao"! Wei Renshi was speechless for a while.

The civil servants of the Tang Dynasty are really not good at work, they have to sign in at five o'clock in the morning to go to work, if they are late, they will be spanked by the board, and they will be demoted.

When I arrived at the gate of the palace, I saw that there were already a lot of people standing outside, all of them rushed all the way, and at this moment they were tidying up their clothes, talking to each other, and waiting for the palace gate to open when the time came.

"Oops, Zhang advises!" As soon as Mr. Zhang got out of the carriage and tidied up his clothes, he heard a voice coming from behind, and saw several people coming over together, clasping fists with Mr. Zhang and saluting.

Mr. Zhang also returned the salute, and several people stood together and began to speak.

Wei Renshi looked around, and in addition to Bachelor Zhang, he saw a familiar face, but it was Liu Yuxi.

He was about to come over, but suddenly he shouted from the palace gate. The people who were talking in front of the palace gate immediately stopped talking and formed two teams.

Liu Yuxi had to smile at Wei Renshi, and then hurriedly stood in his place.

The palace gate slowly opened, under the Suzaku Gate, the royal forest army with bright armor stood on both sides, outside the palace gate, a column of civil officials and military attaches slowly moved forward, everyone's face was solemn and solemn, holding Chao Bei, respectfully Xu Bu walked into the imperial city.

Wei Renshi followed last, and walked in with the hundred officials and arrived outside the hall.

Wait a minute, the ministers will enter the palace, and Wei Renshi will have to wait outside, and wait for him to be passed on from inside before he can enter.
