Chapter 184: It's that little white face
As time went by, gradually, not many people were coming in and out. Just as everyone was about to take their seats, an unexpected person appeared.
"Cangsong County Chu Xue Wen Chu County Order has arrived!" A loud tenor voice startled everyone's side eyes, and Chu Xuewen, who was dressed in casual clothes, walked towards everyone with a spring breeze on his face.
"Why is he here?" Li Mingyuan subconsciously said curiously.
As the parent official of Cangsong County, Chu Xuewen obviously enjoys much higher treatment than these talents who have no official positions. Along the way, there are not only guards to support, but also maids to accompany them. Compared with everyone, this product is a rich and handsome person who stands out from the crowd.
A group of talented people who already felt a lot of pressure, as soon as they saw that even the Chu County Order had come to join in the fun, they suddenly felt that their chances of winning were even more slim, and the atmosphere in the garden was a little embarrassing for a while.
Soon, the first person to react greeted him warmly, followed by a few more, and at the end of the day, a large group of people who were already hula were hula-la-hued around Chu Xuewen and greeted him with cold and flattery.
"Tut-tut, one by one, read the books of the sages in vain!" Li Mingyuan looked at everyone's ugliness with dissatisfaction, and pretended to be high. Although this thing is superficially so, in fact, if it weren't for Xiahou Yong's support, it is estimated that he would be the first to rush up and pat himself. Thick-skinned to the point of him, it is also a kind of realm.
In this era when everything is inferior and only reading is high, the status of scholars is very high. And the title of the gold list, and the status of a scholar who has successfully become an official are not to mention. The county order of the house, the Taishou who destroyed the door, this is not a joke.
Chu Xuewen may still need to be improved as an official. But when it comes to dealing with people, he's clearly a veteran. It is estimated that there was a lot of practice in the capital in the early years. Surrounded by more than a dozen people, he is still unfazed and can play with ease, which is much stronger than Li Mingyuan.
After greeting everyone, Chu Xuewen walked over to the place where Li Mingyuan was, surrounded by scholars with the highest status in his position. This made Li Mingyuan worried, should he come forward to say hello? Don't say hello, it's not reasonable. Say hello, as soon as I think of this guy teaming up with Pang Xiude to scourge his own cornucopia. Li Mingyuan was a little unwilling. But. The sharp-eyed Chu Xuewen suddenly found Li Mingyuan and walked over directly with a smile on his face.
"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet Captain Li here!" Chu Xuewen took the initiative to walk to Li Mingyuan's side and said.
"Ha Luha, I said how the magpies are chirping when I go out today. It turns out that you will meet a noble person today! Lord Prefectural Order. Not seen for many days. The look is still there! People took the initiative to come up to say hello, obviously giving Li Mingyuan a lot of face. In front of so many people, it is certainly relieving that Chu Xuewen can't come to the stage. But that also completely offended him, Li Mingyuan would not do such a brainless thing.
"Brother Li laughed, I didn't expect Brother Li to be a hero with both wisdom and bravery!" Thinking that Li Mingyuan was a military attaché, but appearing on such an occasion, Chu Xuewen couldn't help but think that Li Mingyuan was the purpose of his trip. Could it be that he is here to defend the palace. Or what kind of sword dance or something is performed at a banquet?
"Where, where, the prefectural commander said with a smile. Mingyuan is not talented, invited by the prince, to see tonight's banquet, it is really an honor, an honor! Li Mingyuan said modestly with a smile.
The few young people who have been following Chu Xuewen have known Li Mingyuan, so they naturally know Li Mingyuan's details. When they saw Chu Xuewen take the initiative to come up to greet Li Mingyuan, they were already secretly surprised in their hearts. But when they found out that the relationship between the two was not ordinarily intimate, and it reached the point where they could joke, everyone was even more impressed by Li Mingyuan. It can be regarded as making this product a little out of the limelight.
"It's not too early, let's do it!" After greeting Li Mingyuan for a few words, Chu Xuewen greeted everyone. Everyone responded, and under the leadership of Chu Xuewen, they did it when they sat down.
At the banquet, a lot of cold dishes have been prepared, all of which are full of color, flavor and flavor. made many poor children drool wildly in their hearts. Those who are qualified and have the financial resources to put such a table will definitely not be able to find a few in Liangzhou.
In Dahua, the prince is equivalent to a large landowner, who can collect land rent from his own fiefdom, and his living conditions are very good. But they did not have the right to leave their fiefdoms to move freely. Unless the emperor summons him to Beijing.
The founding emperor of Dahua also stipulated that all his "dragon sons and dragon grandchildren" should be fully covered by the state: the prince's son was named the king of the county, the son of the county king was the general of Zhenguo, and the sons, grandsons, and great-grandsons of the general of Zhenguo were successively named auxiliary generals, Fengguo generals, Zhenguo lieutenants, auxiliary lieutenants, and Fengguo lieutenants. Lieutenant Bongkook's children and grandchildren have been Lieutenant Bongkook for generations. The prince's Yulu is Miwan Stone, and the Yulu of the King of the County to the Lieutenant of Fengguo is 2,000 Shiku, 1,000 Shiku, 800 Shiku, 600 Shiku, 400 Shiku, 300 Shi, and 200 Shiku. In other words, all the descendants of the founding emperor can eat and drink without worrying when they are born.
Such a "care" policy may not seem like a big deal, but over time, the consequences will be very serious. If Dahua is fortunate enough to inherit it for a few hundred more years, then the dragon son and dragon grandson don't know how many Lu Dao there are. Hundreds of thousands of dragon sons and grandsons do not produce, and only rely on the state to raise them, so it is strange that the whole country will not be destroyed!
After the emperor ascended the throne, he has strengthened the management of the royal family, even if it is a prince, in some respects it is not as good as an ordinary person. The city where the palace is located is a large prison for the Prince. Without the permission of the imperial court, the prince could not even go out of the city to sweep the tomb. Although the prince has no political power, he is very well paid financially. When the prince was a vassal prince, the emperor would often reward large tracts of land. The princes are not official positions, they are super-grade positions, and they are not in the normal state bureaucracy.
Despite this, the princes still have to live very chic, such as His Royal Highness King Liang.
"Mingyuan is here, is he also His Royal Highness the county lord?" Chu Xuewen looked at Li Mingyuan and said with a wicked smile.
"My lord said that he laughed, the lower officials have a heart, and they are not interested in His Royal Highness the county lord!" Li Mingyuan shook his head and smiled.
Li Mingyuan was telling the truth, but Chu Xuewen didn't believe it. is the so-called fair lady, a gentleman. He didn't believe that Li Mingyuan was the kind of person who was not interested in beautiful women. Just looking at his pair of peach blossom eyes, he knew that this guy was definitely the master of the peach blossoms.
"Mingyuan doesn't have to dodge, between you and me, it doesn't have to be like this! Like is like, love is love, manly man, what is there to dare to admit? Chu Xuewen took out a paper fan out of nowhere, and said unusually coquettishly.
"My lord, I really don't dare to be interested in the county lord!" Li Mingyuan shook his head helplessly and said, he quickly dug out his heart and showed it to Chu Xuewen.
Seeing that Li Mingyuan's attitude was so firm, Chu Xuewen didn't want to continue to dwell on this issue, but smiled and opened the topic, "If you're not interested, we'll know later." But there's one more thing I want to tell you! ”
"Your Excellency, please speak!" Li Mingyuan said respectfully.
"The Liu Wen who framed the hot pot restaurant has committed suicide in fear of crime, you know the truth!" Chu Xuewen said expressionlessly.
"I've heard a little!" Li Mingyuan was also unfazed. He is not a fool, naturally only taking this Liu Wen will definitely not commit suicide in fear of sin. Those who drive them in this line pay attention to leaving the green mountains without worrying about running out of firewood! He committed suicide because of an unsuccessful blackmail. If Li Mingyuan is killed, he will not believe it. There must be a shadow of Pang Xiude in this. But now Li Mingyuan doesn't bother to pursue it. The arrival of three thousand taels of white flowers in silver made him have a lot of good impression of Pang Xiude.
"You don't seem surprised at all?" Chu Xuewen shook his head with a smile and said,
"What's there to be surprised about? How this Liu Wen died, you and I both understand! Li Mingyuan smiled evilly and smiled mysteriously.
Li Mingyuan's words were quite harsh when he heard Chu Xuewen's ears, but he also knew what Li Mingyuan was referring to, and I both understood what I meant, and for a while, I didn't know what to say.
"Anyway, this matter is over, how?" Chu Xuewen said directly. There was a hint of toughness in his tone that was hard to hide.
"I'll do whatever the adults say!" Li Mingyuan smiled harmlessly.
Li Mingyuan's attitude made Chu Xuewen fall silent, perhaps at this moment, this young county magistrate was thinking about what to do to make up for the damage he had caused to the hot pot restaurant.
"King Liang has arrived!" Just when everyone was waiting a little anxiously, King Liang finally walked over from a distance surrounded by everyone.
"Brother Li, the master is here!" Chu Xuewen looked up at King Liang and his party who came over, and reminded.
"I'm watching! Hehe, I said where else some people went, it turned out that people were going through the back door! Li Mingyuan saw Fang Yantao following King Liang with sharp eyes, and couldn't help but smile.
"Who is Brother Li talking about?" Chu Xuewen also squinted his eyes and said. His vision is far inferior to Li Mingyuan's, mainly because more than ten years of hard study in the cold window has caused him to be myopic to a certain extent, plus there are no glasses box eye exercises and other things in these years. Not only him, but most of the scholars who study hard have a certain degree of myopia, of course, students like Li Mingyuan who are not good at studying are not among them.
"Nong, that's it, the little white face who followed King Liang and walked side by side with Shizi!" Li Mingyuan pointed at Fang Yantao with his finger.
"Well, I see, what's the matter, Brother Li knows that person?" Chu Xuewen was both surprised and envious when he saw that guy actually bending side by side with His Royal Highness the Prince. I kept guessing in my mind where this guy came from.
"Yes, of course I know, and I've dealt with it a few times!" Li Mingyuan said with a hint of sneer.
"Yes, then, you can tell me about it!" Chu Xuewen pondered that he knew that he would win all battles, since this person would be his competitor, he must find out the details! (To be continued......)
