Chapter 385 Transportation
I heard that you have something to worry about today, is it true?
Zhao Xu smiled casually: Listening to someone chewing his tongue and following, my heart is very comfortable, what can I worry about! Indeed, reconciling with Zhao Jing is the most comfortable thing for him, as for other things, even if it is a small thing.
As always, Zhao Jing began to talk about some trivial things again, fishing, flower appreciation, moon watching, etc., but Zhao Xu listened to it with relish, and seemed to be very interested in all this. And time passed like this, and Zhao Xu had completely forgotten that he had summoned two ministers.
At this moment, I suddenly heard Hao Sui's voice outside: Your Majesty, Han Zhongyan, the right man of Shangshu, and Shangshu Xu of the Ministry of Officials will be here!
Zhao Xu and Zhao Jing couldn't help but change color. The rules between the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty were different from those of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the monarchs and ministers were very casual and cordial. When the emperor summoned the ministers, he did not have to wait outside the forbidden palace, and the chamberlains would lead them directly outside the main hall, and then go in to report them, and they would be summoned immediately.
However, there is one rule that the Song Dynasty is the same as the Ming and Qing dynasties, that is, the palace women cannot easily go to the palace to deal with political affairs, and the imperial study is a forbidden place for the palace women. Zhao Jing had been here many times before, and she had withdrawn before Zhao Xu summoned the minister, but today the two of them forgot about this stubble, and they couldn't quit at this time!
Chapter 34 of the text coincides with the meeting
The gate of Hu's mansion was opened, and a richly decorated carriage was parked outside the door. The horse waited quietly, flicking its tail with some impatience. There were three thin men standing beside the carriage, all of them with a little sallow, and their patience was obviously much better than that of the horse, and they all looked calmly at the door, and from time to time whispered a few words.
At this time, a large group of people suddenly poured out of the door, one person was Ouyang Shu, and his two disciples, the little brothers and sisters of the Hu family, were holding his two big hands on the left and right, and slowly walked forward.
He was followed by the three adults of the Hu family. Behind them, they were followed by a large group of housekeepers and maids, raising their mothers. Today, everyone set out collectively, all for one purpose to see Ouyang Shu off. These days, with Ouyang Shu's skillful hands, many people in the Hu family have benefited.
From the steward, the eldest maid, and even a few masters of the Hu family, to those who are reluctant to go to the doctor with a little illness on weekdays, as long as you find Ouyang Shu to see a doctor, Ouyang Shu treats everyone equally, and he is also meticulous in treatment. This not only won him the gratitude of the entire Hu family, but also won respect.
So, knowing that he was leaving today, everyone gathered together to see him off. And Hu Lang also showed a rare generosity today, and he did not scold everyone because they left their posts. As a result, those who had not received Ouyang Shu's favor, but just wanted to join in the fun, or peek at the beauties, also joined in. This further promoted the growth of this send-off team.
At this time, everyone has arrived at the gate. Hu Lang arched his hand and said: Sir, I wish you here to take the Fang Gui and take the lead, and when you come back, the old man will personally put the cherry Yan for you, and congratulate you on your honor!
After last night's incident, and now hearing Hu Lang call himself Mr. again, Ouyang Shu suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so he looked at Hu Qing'er who was hiding behind Wang Yuanjun, but saw that Hu Qing'er was also looking at him upright, his eyes were full of burning attachment. The two met their eyes and immediately avoided them.
Ouyang Shu hurriedly wiped his eyes with his hands in a pretentious manner, turned to Hu Lang and said: Baozheng is polite! However, but no matter what, I still have to thank Baozheng for his auspicious words! Then he turned to the people who came to see him off: Everyone, thank you for sending each other, if it is in this Kede, you must not forget your affection!
Those subordinates applauded in unison, and the scene was lively for a while.
Ouyang Shu got into the carriage, glanced at the coachman, and couldn't help but smile. It turned out that there were a total of three coachmen arranged by Hu Lang this time, and they took turns to catch the car, and the idle ones accompanied Ouyang Shu to chat and relieve their boredom. And these three people are none other than the three heroes who followed Hu Duo in the past. It's just that now these three people have a lot more ruddy complexion than when they came, although they are still very thin, but their spirits have improved a lot, and it seems that they are no longer the same as the original tuberculosis ghosts.
Ouyang Shu turned around and said goodbye to everyone, and then got into the carriage.
When the coachman raised his whip and shouted, the horse, which had been waiting impatiently, raised its hooves and rushed forward, leaving only a pair of thoughtful eyes, where he looked at the carriage from afar.
Ouyang Shu and his entourage of four people crossed the Yangtze River by Jiangning Mansion (now Nanjing), then went north to Luzhou, passed through Shouzhou, passed through Nanjing (now Shangqiu, Henan), walked and stopped along the way, and after 19 days of hard work, they finally arrived at Bianliang, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty and the most prosperous city in the world today.
A few people didn't care to enjoy the bustling scene of Tokyo City, so they found an inn on Suzakumon Street, which is close to Minami Kaoru Gate. The name of this inn is also interesting, it is called an inn. It turned out that their shopkeeper's surname was Yi, and the name was originally called Yijia Inn, but later, a scholar came to stay and proposed to change the name to them, and he himself was very satisfied with this chic store name.
Although this inn is not top-notch luxury, it is already very good in a place far from Nanmen Street, the heart of Bianjing. Therefore, the price of its house is not cheap, and it is a consistent amount of money every day. When Ouyang Shu came out of the house, he already brought a lot of silver, and this time in the Hu family, Hu Lang had to bring it, and the silver totaled more than five hundred taels, which was worth nearly a thousand yuan. So, for him, this room rate is still affordable.
After settling down, Ouyang Shu left the three of them to play around Bianjing City, and it was not until three days later that the three of them had the heart to go home, so they were sent away. Before leaving, Ouyang Shu took out three spindles and ten taels of knocking wire and handed them to the three of them. The three of them resigned again and again, and said: The villains have followed Mr. north all the way, eating well, drinking well, sleeping well, and playing well, this is a rare opportunity for several years, how dare you accept Mr.'s silver again?
Ouyang Shu laughed and said: Take it! This is a New Year's holiday, please go with me this trip, I can't share the joy of family with my family at home, I really don't want to go. You all accept this bit of silver, it's nothing to me, but it's a lot of money to you!
The three of them just pretended to excuse themselves, but when they saw Ouyang Shu insisting, they didn't take the silver with a smile.
The four people in this side of the car were saying goodbye, and everyone didn't notice that on the other side of the road, a pair of thief eyes were staring at them.
Let's say that Ouyang Shu sent the three away, and when he saw that it was still early, he walked all the way to Nanmen Street. Although as a man, he, like most men, is most afraid of shopping, but this South Gate Street may be the most famous street in the world today, and it is a little unreasonable to come and not to shop. In addition, he is a person, he can go shopping when he wants, and he doesn't need to be a porter behind others, so the mood of shopping is also very different.
