ps: Thanks to the love of the book friends, Wumei also asked for many monthly passes, and a thousand words can only be described as grateful! Only by working hard to update and write a good book to repay everyone...... 23

In the past few days, there has been a news in Chang'an City that Chen Jisu, the son of the Hou of Tangyi, and the Hou Chen Chan committed suicide in the prison of the Lieutenant's Mansion.

The Chen brothers committed suicide and flew into the homes of the people of Chang'an like wings, and many people were surprised that the "second family" that was red to purple was quietly falling apart.

Tangyi Marquis Chen Wu was lawless, and his godson had no way, so he was exempted from the country and demoted to a concubine.

The princess was lying on the hospital bed, and she couldn't sit still when she heard the punishment, she had just reconciled with her husband who had been in a deadlocked relationship for thirty-five years, and suddenly had to face the bad situation of her son being poisoned by her own order and her husband being implicated and exempted, she couldn't think about it.

went to Changxin Palace every day to cry that her life was ruined, and the only one she could rely on was her mother, the Empress Dowager Dou Yifang.

The next day, the backyard of the Pingyang Hou Mansion.

"Sure enough, it's resealed."

"After all, the Marquis of Tangyi is the maternal uncle (father-in-law) of the Son of Heaven, and besides, the Marquis of Tangyi is already extinct, so it is too cruel to deprive the Marquis of the throne again." Liu Wan talked about her aunt Liu's family affairs, and the kind little woman also hated her aunt for being ruthless, but when she saw her aunt's mental collapse crying and begging, she was still moved by compassion.

"The brothers of the Chen family are innocent of death, Chen Wu should be questioned if he doesn't report it, if he treats Chen Wu very cruelly, then wouldn't Peng Yue, who died unjustly, be angry?"

Liu Wan was startled, came back to her senses and gouged her eyes again: "The gentleman scared me again." Liang Wang Peng Yue is like that, how can he still come back to life. ”

"Hehe, all the five baht money in our house has been exchanged for gold and silver?"

"The last copper coin was exchanged. The price of silver has risen by 60%, and the price of gold has doubled before, so is it worth it? ”

"Of course it's worth it! Have you forgotten that your husband is the one who makes the money law? It is useful for you to deal with money early, and the next step of gold and silver coins will hit the market in one go, and the price of gold can be higher by one percent, and the price of silver will skyrocket all the way until it overflows the total price of the currency. Now exchange it for gold and silver and exchange it for half a tael of copper, and our family can double the assets with one positive and one negative. ”

Liu Wan was a little uneasy, pinching her handkerchief and worried: "Isn't that too bad?" The pit is the wealthy and the merchants who have hidden gold. ”

"Bad? Your husband doesn't steal or rob. Doing business is also based on conscience and never cheating people, gold and silver trading is one hand to pay money and one hand to deliver, according to the market price to get it seriously, Tong Su is not deceiving. How can it be called bad? Besides, I'm a good person. Don't you think? ”

Liu Wan glanced at him: "A gentleman is a good person?" The concubine didn't feel it at all, to the point that she felt more like a big villain. ”

The next day, a new banner suddenly blew up in the plain money exchange workshops in the two cities of Chang'an City.

The people gathered around to take a closer look, and there was an uproar: "From now on, the money exchange shop will accept all gold and silver at the official price, and there are gold and silver precious metals at home, and you can bring gold utensils here to exchange huàn five baht coins." Fraudsters are now punished in the event of a record. ”

The old scholar in a cloth robe frowned and said, "What does Shaofu mean to eat gold and silver money without restrictions?" ”

"Yo! We may be at a loss. The middle-aged businessman patted his head and turned to leave.

"Don't go! Tell me what's going on? ”

The middle-aged businessman was surrounded by dozens of waters, and said helplessly: "A few borrow a way." The gold and silver in our hands just cashed out a few days ago, and several big financiers made a generous move and ordered early, and I prepared for a few months to get together 5,000 catties of gold, 21,000 catties of platinum (silver), and now I have repaid the loan on credit, and there is only a bunch of five baht money left in the treasury, I thought I had earned 10 million dollars, but now it seems that I have lost a lot. ”

"Are you saying that this gold and silver fluctuation has a precursor?"

"Not really! As early as a few months ago, it went up, but the ordinary people usually don't use gold and silver, don't understand the market, which of our businessmen is not to take out all the money and goods to exchange for gold and silver, as far as I know, now the gold and silver scattered in Guanzhong is less than one-third of the past, and the gold and silver in Kanto have been exchanged for at least half, I am afraid that it will be too late to go to Kanto, please borrow a way to let me go first. ”

The onlookers were slightly stunned as they watched the middle-aged businessman emerge from the crowd and disappear in the blink of an eye.

The middle-aged Confucian standing in the crowd was silent, and pulled the two little boys who stood on tiptoe to watch the excitement and walked out, the little boys were twin brothers, the two children were about eleven or twelve years old, half complaining and half coquettish: "Mr. let Feng'er and Yun'er watch for a while!" ”

One of the little children is called Tang Feng, the other is called Tang Yun, the older Tang Feng is more quiet, the young Tang Yun is lively and naughty, the two are the sons of a middle-aged Confucian who is about to die of illness, that year is just in time for the end of the rebellion of Wu and Chu Seven Kingdoms, because of the famine and plague caused by war and river destruction in Zhao State, two children who are still in infancy were given to middle-aged Confucian students, this is eleven years.

Tang Feng was more sensible, stepped on his younger brother and said, "Sir, the front is Tingwei Tianwei's home." ”

The middle-aged Confucian raised his head and looked at the plaque, the four gilded characters of the Hou family in Wu'an.

"Am I right here?" The middle-aged Confucian hesitated slightly, shook his head and smiled bitterly for a lifetime, he studied poetry and books for half his life, learned to study and traveled to Qilu and met good friends, the more the three of them talked about the more speculative and formed a brotherhood, with the help of the two brothers, they studied hard for more than ten years, and wrote the masterpiece "Ram Spring and Autumn".

He is the youngest of the three brothers, and the heart of fame is also the largest of the three brothers, from enlightenment to the present more than 30 spring and autumn seasons, the first half of his life has passed quietly, and his ambition is still far away, until a "Calling the Virtuous Fangzheng" edict was transmitted to the county, and he rekindled his hope, and there was no chance to raise the virtuous and honest, and the mobile mood did not last a few minutes and was extinguished by the cold water on the head, and the virtuous and good Fangzheng did not have any Confucian business.

Seeing that people who were not as good as himself were in the primary and secondary elections, but he didn't have the slightest chance, and he was indignant and helpless churning in his heart, he finally couldn't help but put down his body and came to Chang'an to run the road, to be a glorious and pathetic "Changpiao" family.

Knock knock!

A crack opened in the door, and the servant who guarded the door glanced at the master and the three of them: "Who are you looking for?" ”

"In Xiaguangchuan County, Confucian Dong Zhongshu. I had several correspondence with Wu Anhou before, and I came here today. Dong Zhongshu handed out the greeting note and took out more than a dozen copper coins and carried them inside.

The doorkeeper took the post and sank slightly. Immediately, his face was happy: "It turned out to be Mr. Guangchuan Dong that the prince often mentioned, you can come after a while!" ”

Bang!

The door closed again.

Tang Yun's palm-sized little face was entangled in regret: "Sir, those fifteen five-baht coins are our three-day accommodation and meal money, you are really willing to give it to the little housekeeper!" ”

"I don't want to give it either, but we don't have a place to live when we first arrive in Chang'an, and we have to sweep the floor out of the house in less than half a month, so it's not okay not to give it!" Dong Zhongshu sighed.

There are still many Confucian scholars like Dong Zhongshu who run around. They have no way to be filial and honest, and they have no chance to be virtuous and upright, and they are willing to take refuge in wealthy families for their political appeals.

Ten miles south of Beique Jiadi. Racecourse.

Tian Wei was sitting in the VIP area and didn't know anything, and he couldn't remember in his mind that he had exchanged letters ten years ago, when he was just a low-level bureaucrat in Liushilu. His sister is still Mrs. Wang. His nephew was still the king of Jiaodong, and he was still an ordinary person struggling to become a thousand stones, and at that time he still retained a sense of awe for the Confucian master, so he handed the letter over at that time and asked a few questions as a student.

Time has passed, he is one of the nine kings of the middle two thousand Shi Yulu, in charge of the world's criminal prison proceedings, and his status is far higher than that of the Great Xingling. And Confucianism was unlucky to fall into the abyss from the altar, and the two sides fell one hundred and eighty degrees. It's not what it used to be when we meet again.

"Come on! Come on! Hit the ball hard, right! Attaboy. ”

Tian Wei was watching a polo game, he was a polo fanatic, almost every day the polo game did not fall, and even the official duties of the court captain were left to the staff to deal with.

The scale of the racecourse is extraordinary, the polo game is divided into different divisions and competes at the same time, only need to draw the line on the running of the race, this is a complete polo competition lawn, four kilometers of track, only counting the oval track with lime sprinkled on the approximate line, the real area of the racecourse is slightly larger, the ordinary polo field is 3oo meters long, 2oo meters wide, and the huge racecourse can be used for 15 polo matches at the same time.

The venue for polo matches is stacked side by side, without being stuck in the middle of the court, surrounded by bamboo fences on three sides, and then hung on the goalposts on both sides to become a closed court.

Tian Wei bet a lot on Parksonfang, and threw out a full five million dollars to buy a goal difference of 1o goal victory, and Parkson Square also lived up to expectations to suppress the opponent in the whole court, and led by five goals after three rounds, and was very hopeful of playing a score of 1o goal difference.

Ji Fu sighed: "Junhou, you should watch less penalty kicks." ”

"What do I do if I don't watch the ball? Go to Tingwei's Mansion to order a cup of tea? Tian Wei glanced at him and continued to enjoy the game, the telescope in his hand is a sharp weapon, you can see the people on the other side of the stands, many single men like to take the opportunity to look at the beautiful women on the other side, Tian Wei will occasionally glance at a few eyes.

"Then you shouldn't come to see polo, you haven't even recognized all the subordinates of the Tingwei Mansion during your new tenure, and there are complaints against you below."

"Humph! Now that the court is what the princes say, how much ability can a relative of mine have? The elder brother became the prince and the prince's idle life wholeheartedly, from the new to the present, he has not entered the gate of Weiyang Palace, and he comes to the racecourse every day to respond to the errand, except for Dou Ying's busy dizziness and blind wares, no one wants to do things, we are the echo worms in the court, why bother to suffer from that anger? If there is anything in the Tingwei Mansion, tell me directly, and the personnel will be left as they are. ”

It's not that Tian Wei doesn't have the heart to pursue power, his power has not decreased but increased, but the court situation in front of him has nothing to do with him, the secretary of state who plays soy sauce, the three princes and nine kings were kicked out of the court by Cao Shi, and the Chen family was also overturned by Cao Shi himself, these glorious achievements have nothing to do with him, he just watched the whole process and got lucky to mix up the fat shortage of a court lieutenant.

On the first day of his appointment, he felt that the Tingwei Mansion admired Cao Shi's five-body throwing to the ground, so he almost bowed down in front of him and called Tingwei, he couldn't do anything he wanted, and wanted to weaken the reputation of Shaofu Cao Shi in Tingwei's Mansion, and was immediately talked about as a jealous and scheming Maozi on his head, and Tian Wei understood that he was destined to become a puppet when he became a Tingwei.

If Cao Shi was very popular in the past, he can be described as a hot big man, but now Cao Shi is in full swing, no one will question how easy his position is Jiuqing, and no one will say that the sixteen-year-old Shaofu is not like it, his political performance is like a perfect score in the exam, and he is almost impeccable in front of him.

The Empress Dowager has been so angry that she has not been able to heal so far, the eyes of the princess are about to cry blind, and the Dou family is lying quietly like a dead dog and pretending to be dead, who dares to object? Who has an opinion?

It's gone, those who once had opinions are either pretending to be dead en masse, or returning to their hometowns, or dying in the Lieutenant's Mansion prison.

He is a soy sauce Jiuqing, he once followed Wei Juan to express his dissatisfaction when he fought outside the court, and he didn't know how to advance or retreat when he attacked Cao in person, he didn't stay neutral like the princes and lords, and he didn't rush to apologize afterwards, that attack was just a small matter in his eyes, there was no need to make a big fuss and apologize, until the long night passed, he didn't realize that he was wrong.

Tian Wei clearly understands that he will never lose the opportunity to apologize, Cao Shi will not accept the surrender of a defeated general again, even if he accepts it, it will not be sincere, he has not moved now because of his nephew Liu Che, and it is also his nephew Liu Che who has been promoted to serve as a court lieutenant, Cao Shi just nodded and did not raise objections throughout the whole process.

Non-opposition does not mean that it is very agreeable, and sometimes it is acquiescence, sometimes tolerance, and sometimes a break waiting for an all-out blow.

He can't guess, let alone guess, with his current ability and power, he can't fight Cao Shi at all, and even his nephew Liu Che is not necessarily reliable, so the only way to do this is to hide and pretend to be dead, don't show your ambitions, no matter how powerful you are, it's not good to do it to the person who pretends to be dead.

"The imperial history's impeachments against the prince have piled up."

"Imperial History? Ask Zhang Ou what his opinion is, without them nodding, no matter how many Yushi Bullet Chapters there are, they are just tickling. Tian Wei doesn't care about the imperial history, these people are not even qualified to be the emperor's eagle dogs in his eyes, and they can't intervene in the military affairs of the court at all, a group of slaves and maids who serve the emperor and tease the emperor comfortably, just like the inner servants (eunuchs), the waiters, and the Lang officials.

And in terms of closeness, it is not as good as serving the emperor's servants all day long, and in terms of appreciation, it is not as good as the brave and strong Lang officials, which is better than the eunuchs with a mutilated organ in the lower body.

"How long do you plan to hide?"

"It depends on the situation, even if you are dismissed one day, it doesn't matter, find a chance to go to Changqiu Palace to say a few words, you can get a Jiuqing at any time, to my status I have Jiuqing's governing experience, it is very easy to recover, how is the field you helped me get now?"

Ji Fu said: "Qinghe County, Juan County, 2,500 hectares of fertile land, in the north of the river flat terrain together, this spring has been planted new corn, this land has taken a lot of effort, the local three elders handed to Chang'an there are hundreds of reports, in the next effort to intercept sixty, the rest of the fear is into Chang'an City. ”

"It's hard work, I'm not afraid that Pingyang Hou will know about occupying the land, go back and prepare some money to beat up all the troublemakers, and you can rent seeds if the land is sold cheaply, and tell them not to mess around, otherwise I'm not welcome." Tian Wei said with a hideous face. (To be continued!)
