"Who is the shopkeeper? Come out," a noble lady scolded, "which dog slave let a certain prince in?" ”

"Smash this to so-and-so" An old man in a purple robe also scolded, although he was an old man, his hair was still gray, and he was afraid that he was just a child compared to those princes of the country.

The restaurant manager had the intention to stop it, looking at these imposing vermilion purple robes, the ministers and dignitaries above the third grade of Yan and Tang did not dare to make a move, looking at Dugu Xinci with a blank eye, he didn't dare to count on his own chief manager, and he didn't see that his own chief manager also lowered his eyebrows and followed silently.

"Smash it, smash it, the old doesn't go, the new doesn't come" Dugu Xinci was still sitting eating and drinking, and summoned the steward, "Don't stop them, let them smash"

The steward had to stand still obediently, and the generals of the prince's mansion began to take away the orchids on the stage, pushing the table and chairs a few times.

Dugu Xinci saw the opportunity quickly, and hid by the stairs with the roast chicken, and commanded Ah Dog Daxiong to take more.

"You are the Marquis of the Far East?" A middle-aged lady found Dugu Xinci hiding on the side and asked coldly.

Dugu Xinci has the heart to deny it, but he is also eye-catching, a purple-robed young man is squatting here, those children and grandchildren of the prince of the country are in Hanyuan Hall today, so they naturally know this son, not to mention that the fat man of Duan Yun Duan Seventeen also came, just pretending not to know.

"So-and-so, dare to ask the eldest lady what's the matter?" Dugu Xin pretends to be cute.

"How did you coax Lu Guogong to come here? If anything fails, what sin thou shalt stake? The woman scolded.

"Ah, just say polite things casually, who knows that Lu Guogong is serious?" Dugu Xinci innocently defended.

"Far Eastern Hou, a certain ancestor is old and frail, but you coaxed him to come to this place of fireworks, what is your mind?" A young woman also came over to scold, her posture was still good, but her face was full of blush, and she was obviously very graceful, but Dugu Xinci almost vomited the overnight meal.

"Everyone, it's wrong, now the princes and princes in the palace are all tailed, you all take it back, you smashed a certain restaurant, and the anger that should come out is also out, if it's okay, please go back" Dugu Xinci had no choice but to get up and clasp his fists in a circle.

The old princes and princes of the old country looked at Dugu Xinci with a smile and made amends, but no one came out to say a fair word, which made Dugu Xinci really cold.

"If you say that there is nothing to do, there is nothing to do, and if there is a mistake when a certain prince returns home, he will find you to settle accounts again," a man in the prime of life shouted.

Ho, it's still energetic, Dugu Xinci is depressed, Lu Guogong and Wei Guogong glanced at each other, and finally stood up and said, "That kid, what about sending two little ladies?" ”

Dugu Xinci almost fell down, I really had never seen such shameless.

"Father-in-law" and "Ancestor", two noble ladies exclaimed, one big and one small.

These two originally belonged to the Lu Guogong Mansion, I don't know which room it is? It's very fierce, I don't know if Lu Guogong wants to marry a certain baby granddaughter? If it is, it is really better to find a piece of tofu and crash to death.

"Far Eastern Hou, how can you be like this? A certain general will tell the saint that you are guilty of murdering the king," another young man cried.

It's really hard, Duguxin is annoyed, and today I really have a lot of bumps.

Dugu Xinci jumped on a few cases, stretched out his fingers and nodded at everyone, "You, you, you, you are the Marquis of the Far East, Dugu Xinci, what's the matter, I invite you to have a drink, do you have any opinions?" ”

"Look at it, these old princes, old princes, and old brothers" Dugu Xin and Shun have brought themselves a seniority" You also know that they are weak and old? When you are old, you should be at home, what about you? On this snowy day, it's freezing cold, and they still let them come out to participate in the pilgrimage? I would like to ask you, what is Ande's mind? Ah, what is your mind? ”

The princes of the prince's mansion bowed their heads in shame, isn't this clear? There is an old ancestor in the family, Yan Tang Xunchen, who must be taken out for a walk every year, so that the saints and ministers can see that the ancestor of a certain family is still alive, so let's add an official to a certain person.

A few noble ladies wanted to scold back, but the men in the family hurriedly stopped them.

"This old brother of a certain person, to be honest, I haven't lived for a few years, but since I am alive, I have to live a comfortable life, all of them are people who have made great contributions to Yan Tang, and they are controlled by you and others on weekdays, this is not allowed to eat, that is not allowed to play, so what's the point of living? Old brothers, don't you say? ”

"Yes,"

"It is"

"Why do you care?"

"No little lady to see, it's really boring to live" The person who said this didn't need to look at it to know that it was Lu Guogongcheng's heir.

A group of old princes and princes coaxed, and the diners in the building and the population of the prince's mansion were stunned, which is too shameless.

"Okay, okay, scattered, scattered, old brothers, get out of here when you're full, if you want to take the little lady, you can't use it if you want to bring it back" Dugu Xinci continued to shout.

Lu Guogong didn't do it, and said that it would be good to take it back and look at it.

Dugu Xinci scolded, "I bought Zhang Yuedan's review and went back to look at it, and I didn't look at my old appearance, I just wanted to spoil the little lady"

Everyone looked at the chaotic scene at a loss, and everyone didn't know what the relationship between these princes and Dugu Xinci was, and they all shouted to get out, but they saw that those princes were quite enjoyable.

"Okay, okay, let's go back to the house later, don't embarrass that kid" Lu Guogong still wanted to shout back, but Wang Yan Chongyi of Hejian County hurriedly stopped it.

So all the old princes and princes of the old country said goodbye to Dugu Xinci, and shouted that this kid is really stingy, and invited him to play in the house with a little conscience, and some said that there are many granddaughters in the family, so let him go and choose.

"Okay, let's get out, if it's like that, let's keep it as a baby" Dugu Xinci pointed to the rouge-faced little lady and said.

"It's good," Lu Guogong defended his granddaughter.

"Roll out" Dugu waved his hand in disgust.

Everyone wordlessly helped the treasure of their respective houses to get into the car, and those who knew etiquette also came to make amends with Dugu Xinci, Duan Yun's kid covered his face and didn't know where to go.

"Today, you smashed a certain restaurant, remember to bring the compensation tomorrow" Dugu Xinci saw everyone get on the horse, get on the car, get on the car, ready to drive, and shouted coldly.

"If you smash it, you will smash it, and it will be fine if you don't set it on fire," Lu Guogong stretched out his head and shouted.

"That's good, let people make up the nonsense that people talk about the streets and alleys, just say that a group of old people who are not ashamed to ask the little lady to accompany the wine and not give money" Dugu Xinci stood on the steps and sneered.

Lu Guogong hurriedly retracted his head, but Li Dejian, the Duke of Weiguo, threw a goldfish bag over, "A certain person will be sent to bring money to redeem tomorrow"

Then the king of Hejian County also threw the goldfish bag over, Dugu Xinci hurried to follow, and the rest of the old princes and princes also sent people to send the fish bags over.

"Okay, okay, let's get out" Dugu Xinci looked through the goldfish bag, all of them were some years old, "Fifty times per family, if there is a certain number, burn these worthless things"

The heart of the prince of the kingdom said, "Why don't you rob it?" Those princes also scolded you for being really black, that is a gift from a saint, you burned it and tried it?

"Eating a certain white food and smashing the rice bowl, what kind of sin are you doing?" Dugu Xinci scolded back.

Everyone was speechless, and drove back to the house one after another, and Lu Guogong suddenly shouted, "That boy, if you die, don't forget to bring a burning knife to kowtow to someone."

"That's right, they are all your old brothers, go and kowtow a few times and you won't die" Everyone shouted again.

"Okay, okay, it's cold, get out, go and go," Dugu Xinci waved his hand, and everyone went home.

Dugu Xinci stood in front of the Star Picking Tower, watched the various cars slowly disappear from view, and sighed and returned to the building.

"It's really an eye-opener today" Feng Yuanyi had already packed up a desk and was drinking.

"Shrinking turtle, will you die if you delay a message?" Dugu Xinci scolded.

"Thou shalt . . ." Feng Yuanyi was almost choked on a sip of wine, his face flushed, and his fingers were Dugu Xinci, but he couldn't hang down, he really didn't do it authentically today, he didn't show up and didn't say anything, and he didn't do it secretly to report the news.

"The sage already knows about this, and he needs to go back to report it" Although Feng Yuanyi was reluctant to have hot wine and hot food here, he was ordered by the emperor, and he was even more unwilling to share a table with this obviously angry Yuandong Hou.

Feng Yuanyi fled in a hurry, Dugu Xinci called the steward of the Star Picking Building, and asked him to return the fish bag to others after collecting the ransom from each house tomorrow, thinking about it, and sighed, "Those who send the ransom, each household will send ten altars of burning knives, well, and then make some exquisite gold and jade cards or wooden cards, engrave marks, and give them to them, saying that with these brands, they will go to the Star Picking Tower for 20% off, and reserve a few elegant guest rooms, and tell them that there will be a seat at any time."

The steward is also a person with a lively mind, and when he heard it, he thought that this was a good idea, but this was a large number of high-rollers who were not bad for money, and it was impossible for these princes and princes to come again, and their sons and grandsons of high-ranking officials might not be able to come, but there were some gentlemen in each family, and those were the lords of the wine and wine, the most popular guests in Pingkangfang.

The Star Picking Building is often full, if there is a seat at any time with the brand, it is also a cheeky thing, these powerful and richer gentlemen want not to be cheeky?

Dugu Xinci ignored the compliment of the steward who didn't know his name, and ordered Feng Yuanyi's banquet just now to be packed and taken away, and now he didn't bother to cook food when he went back to the palace of Liaoyang County.

Before leaving, Dugu Xin paused, instructed the steward to bring pen and ink, and wrote a poem

"The dangerous building is 100 feet high, you can pick the stars with your hands, and you don't dare to speak loudly, for fear of frightening the people in the sky"

Let him find him tomorrow to make a plaque and hang it in a conspicuous place.

The steward couldn't help but send Dugu Xinci out of the building, and went back to carefully ponder how to carry forward these ideas.

After Dugu Xinci returned home, he saw that several guards who were drunk on Chinese New Year's Eve yesterday were drinking and punching again, and he was in a good mood, so that Ah Dog brought back the hot food and poured another piece on the spot.

When the dusk drum sounded, Duguzhen, the king of Liaoyang County, came back, and naturally scolded the heir again, Dugu Xinci had long been used to it, laughed and admitted his mistakes, and said that he wanted to go back to Gongchuan tomorrow, and almost didn't make the king of Dugu County dizzy.

"You, tomorrow immediately go to the ministry to receive the body, and after receiving the body, you will go to Wannian County to sit in the office, you should be the will of the saints and the ministers, hurry up and straighten things out, and if you want to be lazy in the future, you can't eat the corpse" Dugu County King almost roared, Dugu Xinci shrunk his neck and promised.

The king of Dugu County is also accompanying the saint to drink and feast for half a day today, drunk, freshen up and go to bed early, Dugu Xinci looked at a few guards who were lying down, and lamented in his heart, this first day of the second year of Kaiyuan is really stumbling.

On the second day of the first month, the king of Dugu County called Dugu Xinci early in the morning and wanted to personally escort him to the ministry.

"Isn't it a day off?" Dugu Xinci yawned.

"There is also a guard on Humuri," Dugu Junwang replied coldly.

Dugu Xinci couldn't, hastily got some food, and went to the imperial city with his father.

The so-called confession is that all the rank officials, the conferring of the ministry officials, as well as the gifts, the decorations, are divided into five categories, of which the three grades or more are called canonization, the five grades or more are called the system award, and the six grades below are called the edicts, and the appointment procedures are all ordered by the province of Zhongshu, in the name of the saint, to write the appointment words commonly known as "making books", and after the examination and approval of the province and then drawn by the sage, the original of the imperial approval will be archived, and a copy will be sent to the province of Shangshu for formal procedures.

Roughly speaking, the person's hometown, origin, year A and appointment words are copied on the high-quality hemp paper, from the copyist to the head of the department who has been examined step by step, must be signed and sealed, and stamped with a special "seal of the scribe's department", and then framed into a scroll with brocade silk, and the high-grade ones are even inlaid with gold, silver, shellfish, etc., so the body has another name such as the Tian shaft and the brocade shaft.

When officials receive a lawsuit, they have to pay a large amount of Zhu Jiao silk scroll money, commonly known as the official complaint fee. Some newcomers can't afford the money; There are also some people who are "permanent transfer officials," that is, they always transfer their posts within a certain grade, and they have to pay a sum of money for applying for a job certificate when they change organs, and they really can't afford it. Then it is also possible to replace it with an official document issued by the Ministry of Shangshu with the text of the book, which is equivalent to a letter of appointment, and is collectively referred to as an edict or a document.

There is also a system for suing the body: if the over-the-top part-time job outside the position of this product, such as the fifth-grade official instead of the fourth-grade position, or the fifth-grade official and the sixth-grade position, only the edict will be given, and no other complaint will be handled.

Dugu Xinci said goodbye to the Jingzhao Mansion under the fourth grade, but the county order of Wannian County on the fifth grade only gave the edict, that is, two pieces of hemp paper, and paid two hundred civil official fees.

Duguzhen instructed Qiu Bin to escort Dugu Xinci to Jingzhao Mansion to meet his boss Jingzhao Mansion Yin Li Yuanhong, and then go to Wannian County to sit in the government.

After some instructions, Dugu County King Shi Shiran went back to the house to rest Mu, and the bitter-faced Dugu Xinci had to rush to the Jingzhao Mansion on the east side of the Xuanzheng Hall after the Hanyuan Hall of the Daming Palace, and there were no idlers all the way, all in Xiu Mu, the Tang Dynasty Yuan Day was closed for seven days, and the Jingzhao Mansion was only on duty with the young Yin Yanshi who had seen it yesterday, chatting for a while, Dugu Xinci said goodbye and went to the Wannian County Party in Xuanyangfang.

People come and go on the sixth street, the square is also very lively, Wannian County Party is in the northeast corner of Xuanyang Fang, open the wall of the Fang to the south and open the gate of the county party, facing the Qinren Fang, Dugu Xinci if you live in the Qinren Fang Liaoyang County Palace, the upper and lower values are convenient.

In front of the county party is a word to avoid greed, that is, the heavy eaves shadow wall, and the middle is painted to be a gluttonous beast. The shadow wall has the function of blocking evil and blocking qi in feng shui, which is slightly shorter than the wall of the county party courtyard, and also protrudes on the street.

The front yard wall of the county party is also the wall of Xuanyang Fangfang, the eight characters are concave, there are eaves, there are some holy oracles pasted on the wall, the three lists of the last year's system are still in the list, Dugu Xinci and Wen Yuwei Bin alone three people occupy a list, and the third in the list of big names. There is also a newly posted one that is also related to it, that is, yesterday the official department of the Yuan Hall read out the document of the edict of Dugu Xinci as the county order of ten thousand years.

How did the officials move so fast? Dugu Xinci thought that the imperial city where the Ministry of Officials was located was really not far from here, and the tea could be posted quickly.

The words of Wannian County are hung high on the county gate, the handwriting is not bad, and it is rumored that it is written by Gaozu. The gatehouse is three rooms wide, and the middle gate is the Jimen, which is five feet six inches wide and seven feet one inch high, and there are fences under the left and right porches.

It is worthy of being the first county in the world, and the first county is also a slightly warped eaves, sandalwood pillars and vermilion lacquer, carved beams and painted buildings, majestic and solemn.

The double vermilion lacquer door was wide open, but there was no one in front of or behind the door.

Dugu Xinci took Qiu Bin and Big Bear A Dog into the county party.

Ruizhu palace overlooks the smoke, and the Xuanzheng gate is opened.

Just a day, the little king was enthroned as a big country, and the Yutang bachelor entered the new hemp.
