Chapter 16 Liang Guoxiang
Suiyang, also known as Shangqiu, is the rise of commerce, to trace back to the roots, I am afraid to go back to ancient times, the predecessor of the Shang Dynasty was also grown in this place, with the later Shang, since ancient times, Suiyang is the main city of the anointed land, and now it is where Liang Guozhi is located.
Liang belongs to the fiefdom, because there is no post of Taishou, so the highest administrator of Liang is Liang Guoxiang, and he is also Ye Zhao's top boss.
After separating from Qian Fei, Ye Zhao did not go directly to the yamen to report, and asked Fang Yue to go to deliver the worship post, and brought others to stay overnight, and only brought Qiu Chi to visit in person early the next morning.
Liang Guoxiang Liu Mu is a good person-like character, more than half a hundred years old, his hair has turned gray, and he looks smiling all day long.
"I have long heard of the name of Brother Bo's apprentice, and when I see it today, I am really handsome and extraordinary." Liu Mu brought Ye Zhao into the living room, and said with a smile: "The virtuous nephew is too outward, you are Suiyang Ling, since you have reached the boundary of your own home, why did you live in the inn?" ”
"Liu Xiang is a clan relative of the Han family, and he is a lowly official, and the etiquette cannot be abolished." Ye Zhao said with a smile: "What's more, the lowly position has not yet been officially inaugurated, and it is suspected of trespassing if he directly moves into the yamen." ”
Liu Mu is a relative of the Han family, but the Han Dynasty has a history of 400 years, the Liu family has spread its branches, and now the children of the Liu family are all over the world, I am afraid that many children of the Liu family do not know that they are the relatives of the Han family, no matter what it is, once there are more, it will naturally become worthless, although Liu Mu is the minister of Liang, but there is no fief, let alone the king, now in this Liang country, belongs to a semi-retired state, not very much in charge of things on weekdays, it is better to participate in some literary meetings, comment on the scholars, it is said that Liu Mu has been in the position of the minister of Liang for more than ten years, It hasn't been touched.
Most people feel that the imperial court has actually forgotten Liu Mu, but Ye Zhao feels that the Son of Heaven put Liu Mu in this position, I am afraid that it is more to hold the land of Liang Kingdom in his hands, otherwise it is a very strange thing in itself that there is no big family in a place like Liang Country for so many years.
"Not bad, not bad." Liu Mu looked at Ye Zhao and said with a loud smile: "Xiu will be rare next year, but he is not arrogant or impatient, and there are successors to Brother Bo. ”
Looking at the sky, Liu Mu smiled and said, "Has Xiu Ming ever had breakfast?" ”
"Not yet." Ye Zhao shook his head with a smile and said, Liu Mu is different from Cai Yong, and Ye Zhao is not as casual as meeting Cai Yong.
"That's right, eat with me." Liu Mu pulled Ye Zhao and said with a smile.
"This ......" Ye Zhao suddenly felt a little like he was running to eat? He smiled bitterly: "Liu Xiang doesn't have to bother. ”
"Ha, it's rare to see a young and handsome man, don't bother, the old man still wants to hear about Xiuming's battle with Nahu'er in the northern Xinjiang." Liu Mu said with a smile: "Later, I will ask someone to pick up the seal letter, and Xiu Ming happened to have a few drinks with the old man here." ”
"It's better to be respectful than to obey." Ye Zhao had to laugh.
At that moment, Liu Mu sent someone to get the seal letter for Ye Zhao, and then pulled Ye Zhao to beckon Qiu Chi to sit down at the same time, but then, as the housekeeper at home put a plate of food on the table, Ye Zhao was a little dumbfounded.
Not luxurious, this is understandable, the food culture of this era is still in the primitive stage, there are not many dishes, and it is not luxurious if you want to be luxurious, but Liu Fu, as the prime minister of Liang Guo, is also a member of the Han family, and the breakfast is just some rough food and the like, which makes Ye Zhao a little surprised.
"But these foods are not to Xiuming's appetite?" Liu Mu saw that Ye Zhao was slow to move, and looked at Ye Zhao suspiciously.
It's really incompatible!
Ye Zhao looked at the food in front of him, smiled bitterly and stretched out his hand to hold the chopstick, shook his head and smiled: "Liu Xiang is not strange, but Zhao never thought that Liu Xiang's diet on weekdays would be like this...... Light. ”
Ye Zhao is rarely picky about eating, but because he has maintained a lot of training all year round, he will consume a lot of meat every day, and Liufu's food is really not as good as his appetite.
"Haha, people are old, and they can't compare to you young people." Liu Mu smiled: "It's because I didn't think about it, I didn't let them prepare some meat, Ah Quan, you go and let someone kill a chicken." ”
"Not necessarily!" Ye Zhao hurriedly stopped, and looked at Liu Mu with a smile: "Liu Xiang misunderstood, Zhao Fei disliked, he just wanted Liu Xiang to have a prominent background, but he was still so frugal, Zhao was ashamed in his heart, and when the lower officials fought against Xianbei outside the Saiwai, everything was simple, in comparison, these meals were already considered delicacies." ”
"Okay, come and tell me about your killing of the enemy in the frontier, but unfortunately the old man has been weak since he was a child, and as a member of the Han family, he can't kill the enemy for the country and serve the country, and it's quite ashamed to think about it." Liu Mu shook his head and sighed.
"If there is no Liu Xiang to govern the country in the rear, we will kill the Hu people, and the country will be in chaos, what is the use? Can you win the world immediately, and can you rule the world safely? Ye Zhao said with a smile.
"Rule the world?" I don't know what I remembered, Liu Mu smiled, shook his head and said: "Don't talk about this, come, Xiuming, accompany me for a drink, although eating food failed to make Xiuming happy, but this wine, the old man is deeply immersed, and he will not disappoint Xiuming." ”
"Please!" Ye Zhao raised the wine bud, raised his head and drank it in one gulp, and smiled at Liu Mu.
"Not bad." Liu Mu drank a little, then he was a little drunk, looked at Ye Zhao and said with a smile: "Xiu Ming hasn't told me about the village over there, the old man has been trapped in this Central Plains all his life, and he has never experienced the scenery of the grassland. ”
Ye Zhao couldn't put it off, and at the moment he told Liu Mu some interesting stories about the border village, described the grassland scenery, listened to Liu Mu's continuous praise, and after drinking two more words, the wine was even stronger, so that Ye Zhao had a new understanding of this old man who had been immersed in the wine road all his life.
Fortunately, at this time, the person sent by Liu Mu to pick up the seal letter came back and handed the seal letter to Ye Zhao, who presented the paperwork.
"Master, now outside the Suiyang County Ya, there are many people gathered, they heard that the new county order has arrived, and they want to avenge their grievances." The butler stepped forward and bowed.
"Justice?" Ye Zhao raised his eyebrows, the news spread quite quickly, and turned his head to look at Liu Mu.
"Okay, Xiuming's old man Wu Luo has heard it before, but now he wants to see Xiuming's means of governance, I don't know what Xiuming means?" Liu Mu turned his head to look at Ye Zhao, but the drunkenness on his face disappeared a little.
I was waiting for myself here!
When Ye Zhao heard this, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he bowed his head slightly: "Since you are an official in a place, you should serve the people." ”
