Chapter 44: The Jiang Family's Carriage
Zhang Shangshu had a very personal relationship with his grandfather, and this matter was not a secret in the Jiang family.
The Zhang family not only has a Master Zhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but also the palace has Concubine De Niangniang and Princess Jiarou, who are quite saintly, and the lintel is extremely high.
With the deterrence of the Zhang family, the Arts and Science Building is not afraid of the scrutiny of most people.
Seeing that Mingyue understood the deep meaning in an instant, Jiang Yuandao smiled with relief:
"I heard that you've been studying historiography lately, and now it seems that you're doing a lot of good."
Initially approved by her father, Mingyue's heart moved, and she said tentatively: "Father, although my daughter has learned a lot, she has always been on paper and cannot be combined with reality——"
Jiang Yuandao looked at her funny: "How are you doing?" ”
Mingyue thought for a while and said slowly: "The first step is to know yourself and the enemy, the daughter knows very little about the major families, even if it is the Jiang family, the daughter doesn't know very well, I don't know if the father can guide the daughter?" ”
Jiang Yuandao pondered for a moment, and then responded to Mingyue: "Well, since you have already started to study historiography, it is not necessary to know these things in advance." However, the information here is not comprehensive, and if you want to know, your mother will have to pass it on to you. ”
Mingyue's eyes flashed brightly, and she looked at Mrs. Jiang expectantly.
Mrs. Jiang smiled slightly, took out a booklet from her sleeve, handed it to Mingyue, and said:
"The Wang clan has always collected information from major famous families, and your grandfather also intended to collect the resumes of officials of the DPRK and China, so I have compiled this booklet by combining the information of the two families.
Families with profound backgrounds will have such pamphlets, and I wanted to teach them to you after you have passed them, but now it is a few months in advance. ”
While listening, Mingyue looked at the pamphlet, and saw that it was densely recorded with the populations of the major families, and even the concubines and concubines had children.
What's even more amazing is that even the network of relationships between the various families has been recorded.
Mingyue looked fixedly: Chang Yuan's uncle Dou Wei's concubine - Aunt Chun's brother is the county magistrate of Qingping County......
The second half of the booklet records the resumes of all the officials of the Great Qi Dynasty from top to bottom.
Who would have thought that the current Shoufu Cheng had been in a remote county for more than ten years?
Who would have thought that Lord Shangshu was also condemned by the emperor for dereliction of duty?
Mingyue flipped her hand casually, and her heart was shocked.
How much manpower and material resources do I need to get this book?
What's even more shocking is that if there is this book in the family, wouldn't the matter from the previous dynasty to the inner house be completely put on the surface?
As if seeing what Mingyue was thinking, a smile appeared on the corner of Mrs. Jiang's mouth:
"Not all booklets can be recorded so completely, this booklet is also the result of my collection of the Jiang family and the Wang family, despite this, there are only some simple population and superficial relationships, and there are only a handful of families in the Great Qi Dynasty who can do this."
The Jiang family, where Old Man Jiang is located, is a well-deserved first-class family in the heyday of the Jiang family, however, in order to collect information, it has also taken countless efforts.
The same is true of the Langya Wang family.
Mingyue thought about it for a while, and then she understood how precious this booklet that collected the essence of the two families was.
But such a precious thing, since it has been made at a great cost, it will definitely not be used for collection, but nine times out of ten it is for teaching juniors.
Ran Mingyue, as the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, saw this booklet for the first time this time......
"I don't know big brother-"
Jiang Yuandao immediately replied: "Chengzong has been memorizing this booklet since he was a child, as the eldest son of the Jiang family, this is a must-learn." ”
Mrs. Jiang continued: "You have never liked this, and if you teach it too early, first, I am afraid that you will disdain it, and second, I am afraid that you will leak it out—remember, you must not tell anyone about the contents of this booklet except yourself." ”
Mingyue closed the booklet, looked solemn, and said solemnly: "Thank you, father, mother, daughter understands." ”
……
The next day, the sky was clear and the sun was shining.
Mingyue sat in the carriage with Mrs. Jiang and went to the shore of Chengyang Lake.
The Arts and Science Building was built not far from the lake.
Today is the first day of the opening of the Arts and Science Building.
It is difficult for Mingyue to leave the house, and she can't help but be a little curious and excited at this moment.
However, excitement is excitement, and she will not forget everyone's beautiful physique.
When you arrive at the Arts and Science Building, you can enjoy looking out through the private room, and you are not in a hurry at this time.
However, there seem to be a lot of pedestrians on the streets today, and the horse-drawn carriages are moving very slowly......
After the carriage of Jiangfu, another ordinary Qingwei carriage drove behind, and on the side of the carriage, a young man rode a horse to accompany him.
The young man on the horse was dressed in a dark brocade robe, two pairs of slender legs straddling the horse's back, his back was straight, his face was like a knife, his ribs were distinct, his sword eyebrows were starry, and he was heroic.
The outstanding appearance and temperament provoked many passers-by to look at it frequently, making it even more difficult to drive on the already congested road section.
The boy frowned slightly, a little impatient, and he kicked the shackles and tightened the reins in his hand, causing the horses to snort.
The man in the carriage sensed the young man's impatience, stretched out a bony hand, lifted the curtain slightly, and chuckled:
"Ah Hao, there are a lot of people here, but you are not allowed to ride horses."
The young man known as Ah Hao didn't look back, and his tone was not good: "If it weren't for the carriage in front of me blocking the way, I would have arrived at Chengyang Lake at this moment." ”
The man in the carriage chuckled: "You have been in the army for several years, why are you still so impatient?" ”
Ah Hao looked back dissatisfied: "If you are in the army, why do you need to consider disturbing the people?" I've already galloped on horseback, and this procrastination is not the style of the army at all. ”
The man in the carriage choked and said helplessly: "Don't forget, I'm still in the carriage!" Do you want to leave me alone? ”
Ah Hao opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything more.
The eldest brother is limited by his identity, so it is inconvenient to be exposed in front of others, so he can only travel by carriage.
There were not many guards on this trip, and they were all hidden in the dark, and there was only one coachman and him on the surface, and of course he could not leave his eldest brother.
Finally drove to the end of the congested street, Ah Hao looked at the carriage that blocked them all the way in front of him and stopped in front of the newly opened arts and science building, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, what a coincidence, it was still the same road.
Soon, two women with hats covering their whole bodies came down from the carriage one after another, and walked into the arts and science building under the service of the maid.
Ah Hao then said to the man in the carriage beside him: "Big brother, it's here, come down." ”
The coachman lifted the curtain, and a young man with a gentle temperament and handsome eyebrows stepped out of the carriage.
He first looked at the arts and science building in front of him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he was about to praise two sentences, when his eyes inadvertently glanced at the carriage in front of him that was being led to the backyard, and couldn't help but say in surprise:
"This is the Jiang family's carriage!"
Ah Hao got off his horse, handed the horse to the little servant who greeted him, looked at the carriage in front of him, and wondered:
"Big brother is good friends with this Jiang family?"
