Chapter 297: The Matter of Sacrifice

On the other side, when Wu Xuan's people suppressed Zhai Mingyun, they noticed that someone was secretly helping Zhai Mingyun, and Wu Xuan was naturally reluctant to stop, but during the confrontation, he realized that the person who helped Zhai Mingyun was not simple, and Wu Xuan had to stop for the time being.

Above the court.

Emperor An He lowered his eyes and looked at the ministers below and listened to them report one by one.

"Junzi, today, is it the beginning of winter?" Emperor An He raised his eyes slightly and glanced at his father-in-law who was serving beside him.

"If you go back to the emperor, it's indeed the beginning of winter today, and there was a light snow in the morning." Junko replied respectfully.

An He Emperor was stunned, "It's already snowing?" ”

Junzi replied: "Yes, the emperor, it has been about a stick of incense, and it is not long. As soon as the sun comes out, it's gone. ”

After listening to Shunzi's words, Emperor An He frowned slightly, it was the beginning of winter so soon, and it was snowing, although it was not for a long time, but this also showed that there would be snow in the future. If there is another snow disaster, Da Chen ...... But I can't stand it.

At this time, the ministers also finished reporting, and Emperor An He said: "I want to hold a sacrifice and pray for blessings, and I need to choose someone to be responsible for this matter." Do you have any recommended candidates? ”

Hearing Emperor Anhe's words, the courtiers thought about it for a while, and they knew why Emperor Anhe suddenly proposed the sacrifice. They also started to consider who was in charge.

Someone came out and said, "The minister recommended Lord Liu, Lord Liu is the champion, knowledgeable, and will definitely do a good job." Others also recommended Liu Yu.

Among these people who recommended Liu Yu, some of them were Xie Shiyun's people, so they naturally fought for her.

And some people think that Liu Yu is not on the side, thinking that he is neutral, and it does not hinder them to be in charge of this matter. As for why you don't recommend your own people.

Oh, the sacrifice is such an important thing, if something goes wrong, it's fun not to go.

Emperor An He was also satisfied with this champion, and when he saw that many people recommended him, he said: "That being the case, then Liu Aiqing is fully responsible for this sacrifice." ”

Liu Yu thought that so many people would recommend him, and the emperor directly ordered that he be responsible for this matter, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment before saluting, and said, "Weichen will definitely live up to the emperor's trust." ”

After the early dynasty, Liu Yu took Song Liang to discuss matters related to sacrifices.

Song Liang remembered Xie Shiyun's words, and said to Liu Yu: "It's better to pull Zhai Mingyun in this matter." And he's talented, too. ”

Hearing Song Liang's words, Liu Yu also thought about it, Xie Shiyun specially asked them to take care of Zhai Mingyun, so he agreed with Song Liang's words. sent someone to summon Zhai Mingyun to come.

Zhai Mingyun was flattered to learn that Liu met him for the sake of sacrifice, after all, with his current status, he couldn't touch these at all.

And finally had such an opportunity, Zhai Mingyun naturally worked hard and put forward a lot of useful suggestions. Instead, Liu Yu and Song Liang looked at each other differently.

On this day, the three of them were discussing a question about the sacrifice, and when they were at a loss, Xie Shiyun came.

"See Her Royal Highness the Princess." The three of them saluted together.

Xie Shiyun looked at the sad eyebrows of the three of them, and couldn't help but smile, "What is the problem that stumped the three of you?" It is so sorrowful. ”

The three of them told Xie Shiyun the problem, she twisted her fingertips and thought for a while, and told the three of them her thoughts. After listening to Xie Shiyun's suggestion, the eyes of the three lit up. Song Liang said: "Her Royal Highness the princess is still powerful, the three of us haven't been able to think of this after thinking about it for a long time." ”

This solves the problem.

Xie Shiyun asked some other questions about the sacrifice and gave some suggestions.

Three days later, the festival was held as scheduled.

The sacrifice was a complete success, and Emperor An He was very happy, praised Liu Yu in the court, and gave many awards.

Liu Yu remembered Xie Shiyun's entrustment, saluted, and said to Emperor Anhe: "Your Majesty, the fact that the priest held so smoothly this time is not the work of one minister, but also the credit of Lord Song Liang and Lord Zhai Mingyun Zhai. ”

Emperor An He didn't have any impression of Zhai Mingyun, but when he heard Liu Yu talk about it at this time, he said: "Song Aiqing, where is Zhai Aiqing?" ”

Song Liang and Zhai Mingyun stood up.

Emperor An He gave the two of them another reward.

In addition to the reward of money, Zhai Mingyun was promoted to an official position, and now he is a seven-rank jinshi.

It just so happened that it was Zhai Mingyun's turn to rest today, and he went home happily after the morning court to report the good news to his father.

When he got home, Zhai's father happened to be going out. The father and son were talking at the door, and when they learned that their son had been promoted, Zhai's father was naturally overjoyed, and he was about to celebrate with his son, when he heard the woman's voice from the side.

"Xiao Zhai, my son is also serving in the court, you see that our two families are neighbors, so take him with you."

The father and son turned their heads, and saw their neighbor Aunt Wang looking at them with a smile, and what Aunt Wang said just now was what Aunt Wang said.

Zhai Mingyun looked embarrassed, and he said, "Aunt Wang, I'm just a little jinshi. Where does the ability come from to lift others? ”

Aunt Wang's face suddenly changed, and she snorted coldly, "I think you just don't want to help!" Hum! It's a shame that I was so good to you before, but I was also a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be raised. I read the book of the sages in vain! ”

Zhai Mingyun is a scholar, where has he ever seen scolding the street? was scolded by Aunt Wang's nose, and the scolding was bloody. Don't say it's a counterattack, I can't even interject a sentence.

But that's not all.

The neighbors were attracted as early as when Aunt Wang was scolding, and at this time, Aunt Wang even pulled the neighbors to point at Zhai Mingyun, and what she said was nothing more than that, this white-eyed wolf was a high-ranking official, and he looked down on them as poor people.

These neighbors didn't know what Aunt Wang said before, but they only saw Zhai Mingyun speechless. But they didn't know that Zhai Mingyun was used to interacting with gentlemen, and he had never seen such a posture, so he couldn't deal with it.

Father Zhai is also an honest and honest character, and he can't scold anyone, the father and son can't fight back, but they can't just stand at the door and let them scold, so he turned around and went back to the house and locked the courtyard door.

Seeing them like this, Aunt Wang couldn't go straight in, and scolded for a while before leaving.

On the second day, Zhai Mingyun came back, but saw that his door was tightly blocked by neighbors, and there was not even a seam.

He stepped forward suspiciously and asked, "What are you blocking at my door?" ”

But the neighbor refused to talk to him, and scolded him again. Zhai Mingyun understood, it must have been Aunt Wang who said something, he opened his mouth to explain, but others didn't give him a chance.

I saw a few sturdy men waving their fists and came over.

Zhai Mingyun was shocked, and hurriedly dodged, but he was just a scholar, where could he compare to a few strong men? Kankan dodged a few punches before being punched in the forehead - if he hadn't dodged quickly, the punch would have landed on his nose.

Soon, Zhai Mingyun's forehead turned blue and purple, and his skin was slightly broken, oozing blood.

"What are you doing?!"
