Volume 4 Section 1 Li Er made a fool of himself
After smashing the boat of King Lu's house, the navy never dared to provoke on the canal, Yun Ye, the commander of the Lingnan Naval Division, and Li Yuanchang, the king of Lu, fought a big battle on the canal for the sake of the two singers, and finally Yun Ye relied on the sharp weapon of the strong boat, and the king of Lu fled in the wilderness, holding his head and running away, such a strong news suddenly spread all over the canal, and the Hou Ye who dared to hit the prince, Datang was not nothing, but in order to compete for the head of the fan, he used military weapons, this is the first time.
The local wind watcher thought that this was purely a shame of the imperial court, indiscriminately, and the impeachment document flew to Chang'an like snowflakes, and there was no bias in the chapter, and no matter who was right or wrong, only one point was bitten, that is, there was a bad moral, no noble system, and asked the emperor to punish these two together, anyway, they are all scum, and there is no need to ask about the merits.
The fast horse pass is much faster than the ship, Yun Ye, Li Yuanchang has not entered the capital yet, and the capital already knows that there is another conflict between the two, the kind old Qin sighed, only feeling that Yun Ye is a troublemaker, and he is really a little unbearable to be left in Chang'an by several families.
Wei Chigong clapped his hands and laughed, thinking that this was a man in the army, his own things, whoever grabbed them, he would beat them, and when the anger came up, the king of Yao did not let go of Lao Tzu, thinking that Yun Ye learned this from himself.
Li Er put down the chapter, rubbed his temples, and said to himself: "Boy, in order to resign from the official position of the commander of the water master, you really took great pains, hehe, you also have uncomfortable times?" Keep up being a sailor commander, and I'm counting on you to get some more good boats. ”
Li Tai's eyes flashed with a sinister light, holding two glass bottles in his hands, one bottle contained four or five fiery red ants, and the other bottle contained a spider the size of a baby's fist, looking at the restless two animals, sighed, put the spider back on the shelf, put the ants into a small bamboo basket, and walked out of the gate of the academy, ready to go back to Chang'an to participate in the big gathering of the royal family.
There are a lot of happy events in Chang'an City these days, the army in front of the good news is frequent, Hongling is in a hurry to shout the victory through the Vermilion Bird Street, it has not attracted the onlookers of the people, just shout well, just continue to do a thousand things that should be a thousand, victory is not strange, if any unfavorable news comes from the past, it is a rare thing, Datang will not lose the battle.
In order to pray for the emperor, His Majesty specially decreed that there will only be two kinds of death sentences in the future, that is, hanging and beheading, and the great traitors will be beheaded, and the rest is hanging, that is, erecting a pillar, strangling the rope into the neck and hanging it, without seeing blood, unlike before when the ground was full of blood, not to mention the stench, and it also attracts flies, not good, it is better to hang up, and there are many spectacular scenes that have been hung full of dead bodies on the street of the fantasy Suzaku.
The people don't care how many prisoners die, and now they can't die a few prisoners a year, and it takes several generations of efforts to hang up Suzaku Street, but the Dingkou tax is gone, which is good news worth celebrating, there were always two or three little two in the family before, the one with a full face is called Xiao Er, and the one who is still using urine and mud is also called Xiao Er, and now it is not used, you can rest assured that the bold little three, little four, and little five are lined up.
Some of the rules of Chang'an City are quietly loosening, since the last special curfew was an hour late, this will, Chang'an and the two counties have been abiding by this will, those upright and old-fashioned officials also seem to have forgotten the practice of curfew at sunset, and also like to let the servants carry lanterns after sunset, go to the east and west cities to go around, and it is also good to consume food.
The theater of Xinghuafang has a new tune, I heard that it is the story of two men and women who have fornication and become butterflies, the older mother-in-law, spit hatefully, and said to the eldest girl and little daughter-in-law in the family, the end, this is the shameless end, the adultery becomes a butterfly that is lifted, why not become a pig?
Whether it becomes a butterfly or a pig, this is a trivial matter, the young lady who was allowed to go to the theater to receive female moral education by the family, returned home, all of them cried into tears, and squeaked and sang two sentences, it seems that the education is not light, next time there is a new track, and then go, even the other sisters in the family go together, I don't see the girl in the family is now holding her chin, looking at the plane tree outside the window in a daze, the favorite swing is not swinging, the girl's family should quietly wait for the husband's family sedan chair to lift.
Didn't seize the opportunity to buy a house in Xinghuafang, now regret beating the chest, when the pear blossoms bloom in the spring, Xinghuafang is so beautiful that it is intoxicating, clear water, red mansions, white flowers, green grass as if in the kingdom of God, and then look at the courtyard of their own home, gray like an antique, into the house is planted is a pear tree, or the adult pear tree is moved over, when the pear blossom falls, the wind blows, like snow, there is only an elm tree at the door of their house, the wind blows only the world's thousand withered elm money falls, a dead to sweep several times.
Wei Zheng is okay and always likes to go to Xinghuafang to go around, he sees every bit of change here, several big men at the gate of Fang City saw Wei Zheng, and they all consciously bent down, how can the prime minister be disrespectful, although this likes to walk around in a 1st shirt, but the identity is there, and it is not allowed to be neglected.
Looking at these neatly dressed, clean hands and faces, Wei Zheng has no way to associate them with splashing skin, these vicious enters, now with a short stick pinned to their waists, patrols every half an hour in Xinghuafang, sees dirty things on the ground, will pick them up, will help them when they see a child falling, and will carry the old man to the bottom of the pear tree he likes, what surprised Wei Zheng the most is that they picked up the blonde hairpin, and they will post a notice to ask the owner to come and collect it.
The environment can be changed, this is what the Yun family's steward in Xinghuafang told Wei Zheng, picking up a hairpin and sending it back is not a big deal, compared to his life's job, that hairpin is nothing, the salary of 900 Wen per month is enough for him to get rid of his bad problems, enough for him to ignore the golden hairpin, as for the fox friends and dog friends in the past, they came to contact, and they were ready to meet the thousands of votes that should be combined with the outside, these friends are now without exception with broken legs, lying in the official prison to eat prison food.
There is a decent errand, not only their own well, even the parents are happy to enter, the dog used to smell the smell, and now there are matchmakers who come to the house and muttered to their parents how good the embroidery work of the lady of this family is, how authentic the tea and rice made by the little lady of the family, and the parents are also smiling and picking up, before they were not afraid, and they were not afraid of the ground, but now they actually know that they are shy, and they get into their rooms as soon as they bow their heads, hide behind the door and eavesdrop, causing their parents and matchmakers to laugh, this is the reaction of a normal unmarried man.
This autumn is young, the imperial court's talent ceremony is about to begin, and the writers of the whole court will gather in Chang'an, ready to participate in the assessment of the imperial court, the scrolls are useless, the papers are sealed, and the names will be pasted, and now I don't know who is the examiner, I only know that the examiner is Fang Xuanling, and the deputy examiner is the eldest grandson Wuji, and the rest of the eyes are dark, in previous years, the heroic examiners will vaguely tell the candidates what to test, but this year, I don't know, the exam questions are still in the study of the emperor's majesty, Those scholars did not think that they were capable of getting the exam questions out of the palace.
If they can't do it, it doesn't mean that Li Tai, Li Ke can't do it, these two brothers were called by the emperor Xià to the study, and then the emperor opened the exam questions mysteriously, asking his son to make a copy first, and then take it out to show off, his son is not qualified to participate in the big exam, he is very curious about what kind of level his son has, whether he can get good results.
"The old and the old, the young and the young?" Father, this question has been done by children no less than ten times, and the Datong thought put forward by children has been exhibited by Mr. Li Gang as a model in the academy, and this question has no new idea for children for a long time.
It's Han Xin's military question again, but it's just a different trick, Han Xin has become a herdsman, the soldiers have become chickens and sheep, there is no column, there are more legs and feet, and it has become a topic of chickens and rabbits in the same cage, all changes are inseparable, chickens are fifty-six, sheep are eighty-three, and this is the answer.
Father, you asked me to be a top student of the academy to calculate earthwork? This thing was boring to children three years ago, and I've done it countless times when weasels are burrowing, and if you add the concept of density, children are still a little interested.
Li Er thought that the questions he came up with were already difficult, and he was unanimously approved by Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji, thinking that these questions should be the most difficult exam in these years, but who knew that it was useless to be reprimanded by his son.
Li Ke was a polite child, and when he saw his father, he was very unhappy and hurriedly said: "Father, I don't know who came up with these questions?" Why is it so rash and too simple, my official position in Datang is so worthless? These topics are not much of a problem for Xiaodi, and they can be officials at this level? Doesn't it mean that anyone in the second year or above of the academy can become an official? Father, you should order this irresponsible official to be severely punished and let him re-issue the question. ”
Li Er's face turned blood-red, and he slapped the back of his son's head, and yelled: "This is your Laozi and me's topic, Fang Xuanling, and your uncle all said that it was already difficult, and the following official minutes, I don't believe that your academy even has no problem with these topics that need to be practiced." ”
Li Tai covered the back of his head and said aggrievedly: "Your practical operation question is wrong, to measure the wealth of a place is not to see how much grain he has paid, but to comprehensively look at the actual income of the local people, the number of cattle and sheep, the total output of grain, the process of education, the prosperity of commerce, whether there are industrial workshops, and even the amount of inflow flow, the growth rate of imports, the survival rate of newborns must be considered, and finally the taxes paid, wealth is an overall improvement, not simply to ask the people for food, The people are rich, and it is difficult for Datang to be rich or not, so your question is wrong, at least it is not perfect. ”
Li Eryi sat back in his chair, looked at his two sons and said, "What did the academy teach you?" ”
