Zhu Youxiao pondered for a while, and said to Zheng Yiguan with a smile: "After this mission is done, I will transfer you to the household department." Well, I intend to add a new organization to the household department, and I need some capable officials. ”

"Wechen obeys." Zheng Yiguan bowed down and said: "Please rest assured, Weichen will definitely do a good job of the messenger and make Banzai satisfied." ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "You have two brothers named Zhihu and Zhibao, and since they are accustomed to sea turmoil, they will first go to the East China Sea to experience the division. When the Navy Academy is built, I will go to further study. ”

Zheng Yiguan bowed down again and thanked him, "Weichen Xie Long live Longen." ”

"Zheng Qingke retreated." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and leaned back in the chair a little lazily.

"Wechen retired." Zheng Zhilong bowed and retreated.

Walking on the way out of the palace, Zheng Zhilong gradually puffed up his chest.

Being a translator in Siyi Division, although it is his profession, who makes him know more bird language, but this is not what he wants after all, and there are too few opportunities for promotion.

Who doesn't want to be an official, to be a big official, it is said that Zheng Zhilong in history is an official fan, but this is also human nature, and it is no exception today.

The emperor's emphasis on business is not so difficult to guess, Li Dan, Yan Siqi, Wu Dazhang and others, but they both make money and have official status.

In other words, the institutions that will be added to the household department will definitely be related to business, and they will definitely receive continuous attention from Banzai, just like the new martial arts, new sects, and new schools this year.

What does this mean, it means that you can be promoted by serving in this new organization, doing good work.

As long as you are given a certain opportunity, you are still worried that you can't rise step by step, and you can't glorify your ancestors and show your reputation?

Moreover, Banzai is quite good to himself, saying that Jane is a little too much in the emperor's heart, but arranging his own brother shows that he doesn't hate himself!

Zheng Zhilong breathed in the cold air, and felt even more energetic and had a bright future.

The imperial study was quiet, Zhu Youxiao stroked his forehead, and re-sorted out the government affairs to be dealt with, feeling that there was nothing important, and it could be loose.

It's the New Year, and the first Spring Festival that has come through is really looking forward to it. Zhu Youxiao took the document casually and looked at the Spring Festival expenses reported by the Inner Government.

Whether it is folk or royal, the Spring Festival is grand and joyful. In ancient times, the Spring Festival, also known as New Year's Day, was known as the three major feasts together with the winter solstice and the Wanshou Holy Day (the emperor's birthday).

From the beginning of the 24th day of the lunar month, the palace began to prepare for the New Year. The palace dependents and eunuchs began to wear gourd jingbu and python clothes, all steaming dim sum and storing meat, which will be the fee for one or twenty days.

From this day onwards, until the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, according to the custom, fireworks are set off in front of the Qianqing Palace every day in the palace. Only in windy weather will it stop for half a day, or a day.

At the same time, Aoshan lanterns and fireworks will be installed in the palace. The emperor would go to see it every day, and when the holy car arrived, he would set off fireworks; When the emperor returned to the palace, he would also enlarge the fireworks.

The words show that Wu Zong likes to play very much, during his reign, the Aoshan lantern is the most spectacular, the candles in the palace are all used up, and they have to go outside the palace to purchase, the scene is very spectacular.

On the thirtieth day of the lunar month, the palace began to be more busy, "planting peach talisman board next to the door, general charcoal, sticking the door god", "hanging the god of fortune, ghost judgment, Zhong Kui and other paintings indoors", "hanging gold and silver eight treasures on the bed, the western prayer wheel, or braiding yellow money like a dragon", "the eaves are inserted with sesame straw, and the courtyard burns cypress branches and firewood, the name is called? years".

On this day, the emperor will also issue an edict ordering the nobles and relatives to go to the imperial tombs in Changping to worship.

The emperor will also hold a grand "sacrifice" ceremony in the Taimiao and Shimiao. The so-called "sacrifice" is to enshrine the tablets of the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty in the temple and hold a joint sacrifice.

On New Year's Day, a grand court meeting was held, in which the hundred officials first congratulated the emperor and presented gifts, and then the emperor rewarded the hundred officials, including gold and silver, and held a banquet.

However, after the Ming Xianzong, the banquet became a red envelope, and the so-called "order to avoid the banquet and give money-saving money".

But Zhu Youxiao resumed the New Year's Day banquet again, not because of the extra money, but because he had a strong political purpose.

New Year's party, this can be had, not how good the food and drink are, but the atmosphere. It's good to strengthen ties with officials, increase cohesion, and inspire the heart to serve the emperor!

You know, to be able to participate in the palace banquet is quite honorable and decent. When you retire and go home, you can still blow it well with your children and grandchildren.

The so-called "Ten years of empty food, Jun En is still difficult to repay with a meal", this is the case in feudal society. Well, if you have participated in a state banquet in the future, it will be enough for you to blow for a lifetime.

Zhu Youxiao has seen the menu and standards of the palace banquet, and thinks that it is just a big scene. As for the food, it is not rich, and there is no delicacies from the mountains and seas, but it is definitely no problem to eat enough.

But this is written in the "Daming Huidian", just do it, and you can save some money!

The scene is big and exquisite, and what is needed is to show the royal majesty and embody the spirit of respecting heaven and ancestors.

Zhu Youxiao put down the documents, got up and put on a leather robe, and walked out of the imperial study.

The cold air was refreshing, and the snow on the ground had already been cleared, and only when you looked up could you see the snow hanging from the branches of the trees.

"Go to Changchun Palace." Zhu Youxiao suddenly thought about Zhang Yu'er, and commanded the palace people.

The palace people hurriedly prepared, and soon surrounded the emperor and drove away.

………………

Changchun Palace.

Zhang Yuer watched her little sister come back from school, and couldn't help asking, "There will be a holiday from now on?" ”

Zhang Wan'er replied: "Yes, until the twenty-fifth day of the first month!" ”

As she spoke, the little girl came to Sister Ah and said with a smile: "Sister, I want a two-bar bar, let the palace people make one for me!" ”

Two bars? What is it? Zhang Yuer looked at her little sister puzzled.

Zhang Wan'er stretched out her hand and gestured to explain: "It's such a big white cloth, with two red dao dao on it, which can be worn on the arm. ”

"What's the use of wearing that play?" Zhang Yu'er touched her little sister's head and said, "It was made by Shaoying Academy?" ”

Zhang Wan'er nodded again and again, and said, "The two bars are the squad leader, and the three bars are the captain, but they are majestic." ”

Oh, Zhang Yuer pursed her lips and laughed, reached out to touch her little sister's face, and asked, "It's not from the academy, what do you mean by wearing it?" Study hard, perform well, let's strive for a three-way bar. ”

Zhang Wan'er pursed her lips and hung her head a little sullenly.

Zhang Yu'er couldn't help laughing a few times when she saw her sister's small appearance, and said: "It's the New Year, my mother wants to take you home, and then enter the palace after the New Year." ”

Zhang Wan'er immediately raised her head, blinked her eyes, and asked tentatively, "Let my mother go back, can I accompany my sister?" ”

Grinning her mouth, Zhang Wan'er smiled pleasantly, "Sister is so lonely alone, I'll be a little palace maid, okay to accompany Sister A?" ”
