Chapter 198: Scolding and Crying!
In order to avoid the suspicion of the imperial brothers, the Seven Princes lived in seclusion since he was a child and knew little about the outside world.
Hearing Xiao Zhuozi talking about Qin Feng's various behaviors, he couldn't help but laugh, only thinking that this person was much more interesting than the interesting people described in the book.
A song "Out of the Stopper" made the Seven Princes' blood boil, breaking the unwritten rules of protecting officials and officials, and the courage to confront the children of Beijing made the Seven Princes admire, and the Confucianism of the Korean and Chinese tongues made the Seven Princes even more admired.
Now that this matter came out, it made him even more curious about Qin Feng.
Xiao Zhuozi is the best at figuring out his thoughts, and seeing that the eyes of the Seventh Prince are full of longing, he hurriedly offered advice: "Your Royal Highness, at the dinner stall today, I heard the little eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs say that after three days, it will be the cleaning ceremony, and His Royal Highness will be able to supervise it then." β
Hearing this, the eyes of the Seven Princes lit up.
The ritual of cleansing is a necessary ceremony on the eve of the Great War, and although the scale is not as large as the imperial sacrifice, the royal family and the pillars of the country will participate in the observation.
Qin Tianhu, as the secretary of the military department, is naturally indispensable, and presumably Qin Feng will also go with him.
At the thought of seeing Qin Feng soon, the Seventh Prince suddenly looked forward to it.
It's just that the clean clothes ceremony is very important, and there are many problems such as staffing, silver consumption, etc.
I'm afraid that above the court, I will quarrel about this matter again......
In the early morning of the next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Qin Tianhu, who had returned from the early dynasty, smashed a few cups in a hurry.
Liu Hongyan rushed over when she heard the news, and wanted to comfort her, but when she saw that Qin Tianhu was silent, his face was very ugly, and she thought that something had gone wrong with the upward movement. Liu Hongyan thought for a while, at this time, only Qin Feng could help his father with advice, after all, that guy had a lot of ideas.
Liu Hongyan hurriedly went to the backyard and lifted the quilt.
Qin Feng, who was half-asleep and half-awake, thought that Xiao Xiangxiang was making it bad, and he didn't open his eyes.
After speaking, he muttered: "What are you afraid of......"
Liu Hongyan's thin lips bit lightly, her cheeks were hot for a while, her mood was extremely weird, she couldn't tell whether she was ashamed or faintly happy, and she could only pretend to be angry: "It's up to you!"
After receiving Liu Hongyan's affirmative reply, Qin Feng got up satisfied, washed up briefly, and then walked to the hall, and when he arrived at the place, he found that Qin Tianhu was sulking alone, serving the little maid next to him, he was nervous, and he didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere.
Qin Feng waved his hand, and the little maid was grateful, and left as if she were running away.
There are two chairs on this Beizun seat, only the head of the family can sit, Qin Feng doesn't care so much, he sits next to him, grabs an offering fruit from the table, gnaws it up, and says vaguely: "Let me guess." wWW.ySHuGE. ORGβ
"It's dawn, you have just come back, and the early dynasty has been on for nearly two hours, so you must have talked about something important. In addition to the armament and logistics, the only thing that can make my father so annoyed is the clean clothes ceremony. β
Although Qin Feng's "cleverness" made Qin Tianhu feel a little relieved, even proud.
But as soon as the three words "clean clothes ceremony" were mentioned, Qin Tianhu was furious, and directly smashed the brand-new teacup that the maid had just changed on the ground, like an enraged tiger: "How can this be reasonable!"
"If it was a clean clothes ceremony held in previous years, it would have been forgotten, but now that the treasury is tight and the senior government is in difficulty, what kind of clean clothes ceremony will be held?
As far as Qin Feng knows, the clean clothes ceremony has existed since ancient times, and it can be regarded as a "pre-war oath meeting" in a sense.
Since ancient times, all generals who lead the army must burn incense and purify themselves before opening the battlefield, first, to show the majesty of the country, and secondly, if they die on the front line, they can also die with a clean and majestic body. This cleansing ceremony, firstly, is by the saint and the civil and military hundred officials who usurped the ministers of war, and secondly, some auxiliary generals are selected.
Since it is a selection of military generals, a competition is indispensable.
And all activities with the participation of saints are naturally indispensable to spend money.
But it's clear that money is only a small aspect.
What really made Qin Tianhu angry was not just the issue of money......
Qin Feng took a bite of the fruit and felt that it was not delicious, so he threw it aside and picked up another one, but Qin Tianhu's big slap slashed head-on.
Fortunately, Qin Feng was used to fighting wits and courage with Comrade Lao Qin, and his reaction was extremely fast.
That is, in a few tenths of a second, Qin Feng immediately lowered his head to dodge, and then did not dodge...... was slapped to the ground by Qin Tianhu, grinning in pain, and he couldn't take care of eating the fruit, he sat on the ground and kicked his legs, wailing: "Isn't it just to eat a fruit, you can use it like this?"
Qin Tianhu glared, and he was angry: "If you have something to say, let it go, don't annoy me here!"
Qin Feng sighed, although he was very unhappy, but who let this old guy be his own father?
He sat cross-legged on it, did not get up, and continued:
"The Ministry of Rites is responsible for the cleansing ceremony, but now that the treasury is empty, all procedures should be simplified and cost-saving. The clean clothes ceremony was held as scheduled, it must have been influenced by the household department, and the father was the commander of this battle, so it was naturally the top priority, and the household department wanted to use this clean clothes ceremony to degrade his father's reputation. β
In the final analysis, seeing that the war was inevitable, the household department changed the direction of its strategy, from preventing the war to seizing the command of the war. β
"To put it bluntly, I want to kick my father out of the position of the minister of war, and then elect an official from the household department, right?"
