Chapter 165: Chance Encounter and "Helping Hand"
In Chang'an City, there are four guest houses, which are specially used to receive foreign guests, which are set up in the four corners of the southeast, northwest and northwest. Xue Lang was welcomed into the guest house in the south, and a courtyard was specially drawn for him, and there were pear trees planted in the courtyard, and now the trees are full of fruits.
As soon as Xue Lang entered, he saw Jiang Lin with his guards, Hexiang, Xiuniang and others saluting him together: "Congratulations on Da Lang's promotion!" ”
Xue Lang laughed: "No courtesy, what is the family doing so politely?" You all know it? ”
Changjian said happily: "Back to Da Lang, the little one knew that Da Lang was honored as the county prince and rushed to the post house to report the news, everyone was waiting at the inner gate of the city to wait for Da Lang to go down to the court, and then there was a palace attendant who came to pass the word, saying that Da Lang was going to rest in the South Guest House tonight, so he came over to wait for Da Lang again. ”
Xue Lang nodded, and looked at everyone with a smile: "It's late today, when all the business is over, the best wine shop in Chang'an City, I'll have a treat!" ”
"Whoa!"
After a loud response, it was Xue Lang's "shh ”
This time, the voices of the crowd were much quieter, and those who should be on duty and those who should rest were dispersed. Jiang Lin lived next door to Xue Lang, so naturally he didn't have to leave, and followed behind Xue Lang happily, with a look of honor.
Xue Lang looked at his smiling face, his mood was much better, and asked, "Ah Lin is going to visit his younger siblings today?" ”
In today's activities, all the guards are in charge of the right guard, and Jiang Lin can't interfere with them-
For Right Wuwei, this is a credit, if Jiang Lin and they insist on interfering, it is to rob them of the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, this is to make revenge! Therefore, after Xue Lang knew the process of the event, he gave the guards a holiday, and specially asked Jiang Lin to meet his newlywed wife, send some pumpkins, cabbage or something to the Yue family, and give an extra two catties of vermicelli.
Jiang Lin was slightly embarrassed and nodded: "I have already gone to see it, and I also accompanied my father-in-law's family and my wife to watch the process of my brother's dedication to auspiciousness." ”
Xue Lang hurriedly asked, "Can you apologize for me?" Because I am on official business, I can't come to visit, and when I finish my business, I will come to apologize in person. ”
Jiang Lin said: "The apology of the eldest brother, I have conveyed it, and my father-in-law said that business matters are important!" The eldest brother's official affairs are related to the national society, and he must not be sloppy. I can visit my father-in-law's house at any time, so why bother with the time. ”
Xue Lang smiled: "Thank you......"
It's stuck!
Facing Jiang Lin's puzzled gaze, Xue Lang asked embarrassedly: "By the way, Ah Lin, what should I call your father-in-law?" ”
It turned out to be because of this jam. Jiang Lin laughed: "Big brother, you should call your uncle-in-law." ”
Xue Lang nodded: "Oh, that's what it was called, remember!" Thank you for your kindness. ”
The two brothers gossiped for a while, and Hexiang replied: "Da Lang, the hot water has been prepared, please Da Lang wash." ”
Jiang Lin said: "The eldest brother is quite tired today, let's rest early after washing, the younger brother is on duty today, go out first, the eldest brother has something to call me." ”
As he spoke, he went out with a stick, not knowing whether it was the corner of the cat's wall or the roof. Every day, two guards are on duty to keep watch for safety. Jiang Lin shared weal and woe with his subordinates, and also ranked himself in the rotation list, and did not engage in special treatment because he was Xue Lang's brother-in-law and the leader of the guard.
In this regard, Xue Lang naturally did not beak at it. Everyone is an adult, and they naturally have their own plans for their own work, even if they are brothers, they don't have the right to beak at will.
After taking a hot bath comfortably, Xue Lang went to sleep. Since he came to ancient times, Xue Lang has rarely slept so late, occasionally overnight...... Not to mention, I was really sleepy, I fell asleep when I lay down on the bed, and I didn't feel so excited that I couldn't sleep because of Rongfeng Jungong.
In Xue Lang's heart, the understanding of the title is that he has a place to settle down, as long as he is cautious in the future, with these credits, others can easily move him, and he is finally much more stable. As for the rest...... I haven't felt it yet, but maybe going to the Goshi's mansion tomorrow will add a little more realism.
So, this is actually the benefit of having a big heart?! Or, on the benefits of low emotional intelligence?
Sleep peacefully all night, if it weren't for Hexiang calling in the morning, Xue Lang would definitely oversleep-
"Da Lang, Da Lang, please get up, the bell of the Japanese Dynasty has already sounded, and if you don't get up, I'm afraid I'm going to be late."
In ancient times, there was no clock, how to ensure that the ministers went to work on time?
There is a bronze bell in the imperial court, which rings when it is time to go to court, informing the ministers that it is time to get up and go to court. Moreover, the Great Dynasty will be different from the bells of the Japanese Dynasty and the Constant Dynasty, and it is by relying on the notification of these bells that the ministers will not be mistaken, nor will they be late.
Xue Lang struggled to get up, fortunately, the weather has not become cold yet, if it is winter, it is really a crime to be so early. After washing, I finally woke up.
He Xiang has been able to let the inn prepare breakfast, warm millet porridge with Hu cakes, and two side dishes...... The taste is naturally not as good as what Xiuniang did. However, you can't ask too much when you're away from home.
Xue Lang praised Hexiang, and went out with Changjian to go to the court-
Changjian rented him a sedan chair, so he didn't have to ride a horse anymore. After all, Xue Lang is a civil official, and yesterday was a special situation, so it is better to take a sedan chair usually.
On the way to the palace in a sedan chair, Xue Lang slept in the sedan chair again, and was woken up by Changjian when he got off the bridge. ”
Xue Lang drank a cup of strong tea, so bitter that he felt that his hair was about to stand on end, so he woke up, praised Chang Jian, and went up-
Today is the Japanese Dynasty, in the Xuanzheng Palace. Xue Lang didn't know the way, so he wanted to find an inner attendant to ask, so he turned his head to look around, but he didn't find a single person dressed as an inner attendant, all of whom were guards. I don't know if the guards of the Tang Dynasty are allowed to speak when they are standing guard?
Xue Lang was quite hesitant! There is no one who knows each other! That's the disadvantage of not being sociable. Xue Lang had a bitter face, so speechless.
"Why did Youyang stay here?"
A familiar voice sounded in his ears, Xue Lang hurriedly turned around, almost burst into tears: "It's great to meet the king!" ”
It's the King of Qin who has come to the court!
Qin Wangqi said: "Why is Youyang like this? ”
Xue Lang said helplessly: "Today, the Japanese and the DPRK are in the Xuanzheng Palace, and the lower officials don't know the way." ”
That's the reason!
King Qin didn't play with subtlety at all, he directly raised his head and laughed, laughing Xue Lang's face was even more pitiful, and only after laughing did he explain: "Youyang doesn't know the way, but let the guards lead the way, and when you enter the palace, you have your own chamberlain to lead, why stay here!" ”
it!
How do you explain this? Xue Lang said dryly: "The guards when the lower officials are in a foreign country, they must maintain their appearance and demeanor when they stand guard, and they are not allowed to speak, I think Datang's is also the same rules, so it's not good to ask." ”
King Qin said: "It's really interesting to grow up in a foreign country where Youyang grew up, and there are such regulations?" In the next day, when I have spare time, I have to inquire about Youyang, and now, Youyang will go to the court with me. ”
Xue Lang: "......"
What should I do if I want to make friends with King Qin? In other words, is he friends with King Qin?
