Chapter 4: The Eight Counties Assembly

The medicinal soup was sent as always, Ye Fu poured it out as always, and also resigned all the guests who came to see him.

Jun Ziyun was also very busy during this time, and almost did not appear in front of Ye Fu, while the stunned sting acted as an encyclopedia, answering her questions at any time by Ye Fu's side.

When turning to a certain page of "Clan", Ye Fu found that there was suddenly no record: "Shocked, what's going on?" ”

Stunned to read the original text, the corners of his lips moved slightly: "The subordinates don't know either." However, several major clans later began to engage in officialdom, and most of the officials in the court today are composed of them. ”

"And several great families have a close relationship and many connections. If you look at other families, you may find something. ”

"Hmm."

Ye Fu for the future officialdom of the "Prime Minister Project", starting from the history books of Yu State, immersed in hard reading.

Thanks to the advanced culture of Yu and the mature development of writing, Ye Fu does not have much obstacle in reading. Even if there is, the sting can be solved.

By recuperating from the beginning, Ye Fu stole half a month of leisure, and had a general understanding of the national conditions of Yu. At this time, the "Eight Counties Rally" also kicked off.

Ye Fu lay under the rattan chair, leisurely basking in the sun.

"Shock, what do you say they are talking about in a meeting?"

"In previous years, after the meeting, King Jingyang would present a performance to Yujing, which was nothing more than the military politics of the eight counties, as well as the situation of grain silk weaving."

"Oh, you're pretty honest."

Listening to the stupid opinions of his own adults, sure enough, the adults with amnesia are much simpler. In addition to the big grin of behavior, even thinking is like this...... Shallow.

"Your Excellency will find out later."

"Shocked, don't be bitter, don't we have a magic weapon?"

It happened that the housekeeper of the Jingyang Palace's mansion came to inform him: "Prime Minister Bing, the prince said that after the end of the assembly in the eight counties in a few days, he will arrange people to escort you back to Beijing." The prince also said that he had neglected to take care of the prime minister in the past few days, and sent a few pieces of calligraphy and paintings for the prime minister to enjoy. ”

After the housekeeper said that, a few people sent a lot of calligraphy and paintings. Ye Fu opened one or two to see, all of them are excellent and elegant.

"The prince has a heart."

Not only calligraphy and painting, but also a maid came up with a porcelain vase with plum inserts. For a while, the aroma is lingering and refreshing.

"What is this?"

"It's early spring, the prince has a few plum blossoms blooming just right on the side of the camp, considering that the prime minister is physically inconvenient and not suitable for running around and working, he personally picked a few branches and brought them back to the house, and asked the old slave to send them to the prime minister."

"Well, thank you for me."

"Yes."

"The prince also asked the old slave to speak, tomorrow the representatives of the eight counties will feast on the prime minister in Mingyue Tower, and there will be a big gift at that time."

Gift? Ye Fu glanced at the famous calligraphy and paintings in front of him, aren't these nothing?

A few days ago, Ye Fu proposed to Junzi Yun to return to Beijing, but now he got a reply, or was rejected.

What the hell does this gentleman want to do in the Eight Counties assembly?

At night, Ye Fu clearly felt that a large number of government soldiers had been dispatched around him.

Oh? Is it finally coming, a long-planned gift?

Sunset, Ye Fu rested early, there is a tough battle tomorrow, and it is also the foundation of her "Prime Minister Project".

Mingyue Tower is located in the most prosperous center of Guanshan County, backed by Guanshan, but the construction style is like a mountain villa, entering from the gate and climbing the stairs.

It is divided into several large halls, which are dedicated to the use of literati and scholars, as well as other large meeting places.

Unlike the modern copper walls and iron walls, glass tiles, the bright moon is full of natural landscapes, and even many exotic flowers and plants are planted in the courtyard. It has multiple functions of eating, entertainment, and self-cultivation.

There are not many people from the eight counties, basically two people from each county, and there are only half a hundred people with the retinue.

Ye Fu wore a vermilion purple palace casual clothes today, looking solemn and handsome.

As soon as he arrived, he met Qin Sui, the little son of Qinshan County.

Qin Sui was wearing a luxurious royal blue brocade robe, combing his hair in a smooth and bright bun, a pair of peach blossom eyes were wanton, and his young appearance made people look twice.

Qin Sui smiled when he saw Ye Fu and said: "I have long heard that the climate of Yujing is mild and raises, and today I saw the prime minister, and I knew that it was the truth." If someone says that the prime minister is a woman disguised as a man, I, Qin Sui, will be the first to support him. ”

Ye Fu thought that it might be a temptation, and his face was a little displeased.

"Hahaha, Qin Sui, you kid, you are not small, you have ridiculed the prime minister." The Haishan county guard on the side walked over, patted Qin Sui's shoulder, and talked and laughed.

"The ministers have seen the prime minister." Everyone saluted Ye Fu.

"You don't have to be formal."

Everyone is not in the court, but they are also open, talking and laughing one after another, as if there is endless fun.

Ye Fu carefully responded to the people who came to talk, looking for a gap to sit down and rest.

"Eh, Prime Minister, you're here!" The old man from Luoshan County came over, Ye Fu hurriedly got up, and he almost greeted him.

The sting gave her a look, and Ye Fu suddenly woke up to the fact that the ancient dignity and humility were not divided into old and young.

The old man's name is Lu Jingchuan, and he was flattered by Ye Fu's respect, and hurriedly bowed down: "It's really tormenting the old man." ”

"What's the matter with Lu Lao?" Ye Fu still stood up, holding one hand.

"Prime Minister, my little grandson ran away from home some time ago and went to Yujing, saying that he wanted to participate in the imperial examination!"

Ye Fu smiled: "This is a good thing, maybe you will be lifted and get an official position!" ”

Lu Jingchuan sighed heavily: "Alas! Prime Minister, don't you know, my grandson has been pampered since he was a child, and it is the first time he is so far away from home, and he is still stunned that he will not let his family follow, saying that he wants to go on his own. ”

Everyone was attracted by Lu Lao's voice and looked at this side.

Luoshan is located at the very end of the Guanshan Mountain Range, with rich soil and abundant products, and is considered to be the richest in several counties.

That Qin Sui laughed and said, "Lu Yi, that kid really went to Yujing?" Since he was eleven years old, he told me that he was going to the capital, and he also said that he wanted to ......" Suddenly Qin Sui was bumped by the person next to him on an elbow, and he thought of the inappropriateness in his words, so he stopped.

Even if Ye Fu is confused, it is not easy to ask, and he is humiliated.

"I really don't know what the officials in the capital have to pursue?" Some of them are unscrupulous, and express their thoughts directly.

Most of the people in the eight southern counties disdained to serve as officials in the imperial court. And the imperial court also has loose control over this side, which can be regarded as wishful indulgence.

"Lu Lao is worried that something will happen to little Lu Yi, and he still needs the Prime Minister's care." A young man said with a smile.

Ye Fu suddenly looked at the person who spoke, his eyes were cold, and he didn't speak, and everyone saw this, and gradually fell silent.

Lu Lao only spoke: "It's my grandson, who has admired the prime minister since he was a child, and wants to go to the capital to follow you." ”

Although the people present were a little disdainful, they didn't dare to show it now.

Although Ye Fu looks gentle and gentle, the cannibal officialdom is also very lively, not to be underestimated.

"Lu Lao rest assured, when he arrives in the capital, if he sees your grandson, he must let him repair his books and go home to report his safety."

"Alas, if there is a prime minister, the old man will be relieved."
