Li Tai stopped laughing, "After you are busy with the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, remember to come to the village to play with me." ”

After saying that, he left.

The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Rites were quiet again, and Li Xiaogong, who was lying on the table, had already begun to snore, and the snoring was so loud that even the officials passing by the Ministry of Rites had to look back.

Zhang Yang looked at the case files of the Turks over the years, and many of these case files were left by the former Sui.

"Why do we care about the Turkic affairs?"

"Maybe the DPRK and China also hope that the north will be pacified, and in the future they can support a khan who is friendly with the Tang Dynasty, and many things must take the lead, which is related to the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks in the next few decades." Xu Jingzong put down the scroll in his hand and picked up another volume, frowning and looking at it.

The records of these records can be traced back to the Shibi Khan of that year and to the later Jieli Khan.

Moreover, the handwriting on the case file is messy and unclear in some places, and some case files are written by several people at the same time.

The handwriting is large and small, and it makes people's eyes sour to see.

The government of the Ministry of Rites was very quiet, and Li Xiaogong's snoring was still there.

"What should you do if you want to kill the other person?" Xu Jingzong said in a low voice.

The question was a little sudden, and Zhang Yang had not yet recovered from the Turkic affairs.

"Why do you suddenly ask that?" Zhang Yang put down the case file in his hand and relaxed his eyes.

"Could it be that someone owes you money and doesn't pay it back?" Zhang Yang asked again.

The lower official asked casually. Xu Jingzong smiled awkwardly.

"If you really want to kill someone, don't show your emotions in front of your opponent, you can first minimize your sense of existence, first endure it, and even let the other party ignore you, and then take advantage of the other party to relax their guard and kill with one blow, at this time, look at the other party's dying eyes, you will have endless memories."

Listening to Zhang Yang's words, Xu Jingzong smiled and didn't make a sound, "I will definitely not offend the concubine in the future." ”

"You're welcome, if Brother Xu needs help in the future, just say it."

"The horse is polite, the lower official has long understood the person of the horse, if the lower official encounters any difficulties, the horse will definitely die and not be saved." Xu Jingzong bowed slightly, and his heart was no longer hidden.

"The gangsters above the court, it is our common enemy who wants to make us feel bad."

"That's right, at this point, the lower official is willing to be in the same boat as the colt."

The two looked at each other and smiled, without the mask of hypocrisy, and each confessed a little, and a consensus was quickly reached.

Everyone in the court has their own purpose, but if it affects the common interest, it is the enemy of the entire Ministry of Rites.

Xu Jingzong also understood that Zhang Yang was a person who was not revealing, don't look at the smile on his face, when calculating the envoys of Tubo and Tuyuhun, he had no room at all.

The two looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

"Brother Xu, your smile is weird and scary, don't smile like that next time."

"Xia Guan understands, he will usually collect it."

Xu Jingzong still looked at the file.

After reading for half an hour, Zhang Yang couldn't bear it anymore, lost the case file in his hand and said, "Don't read it." ”

"Why?"

"I don't want to watch it, I'm tired." Zhang Yang stood up and moved his back.

Xu Jingzong was surprised: "Then what are we going to do next?" ”

Zhang Yang looked at the sunlight outside, "What time is it?" ”

Xu Jingzong thought about it again, "It should be noon." ”

"Go home for dinner."

Because there was a lot of dust on the clothes of these old case files, Zhang Yang patted off the dust of the clothes, which was the official uniform that his daughter-in-law had worked hard to wash with cold water at night.

Xu Jingzong was stunned for a moment when he saw him walking out of the Ministry of Rites so swaggeringly.

Sitting in place, Xu Jingzong looked at Li Xiaogong again, and the king of Hejian County was still snoring like thunder.

Looking down at the case file again, and just leaving?

After thinking for a while, Xu Jingzong looked numbly into the distance, then what should I do now? It seems that I don't have to do anything, so I'm so distressed.

As soon as Li Yue saw Zhang Yang coming back, he stepped forward and greeted: "Husband, how is it going to court today?" ”

Zhang Yanggang sat down.

Li Yue helped press his shoulder.

Since becoming an official, the daughter-in-law has become much more attentive.

Zhang Yang closed his eyes and said with enjoyment: "Being pulled on the Tang Dynasty warship by your father and emperor, I am afraid that the future life will not be so good." ”

Li Yue pressed his shoulder hard, "Why is it still not good?" ”

Zhang Yang said in a low voice: "I don't have time to give you a lesson." ”

Li Yue had a smile on her face, "We will live together for many, many years, and there will be a lot of time in the future." ”

After resting for a while, Zhang Yang got up and went to Dongshi to buy vegetables, and he should still be able to buy some meat and vegetables.

Li Yue carried the basket to accompany him, and the two came to Dongshi.

At this time, there are not so many pedestrians in the market, and many people are closing their stalls.

The people of Dongshi know Zhang Yang.

Seeing Zhang Yang wearing an official uniform, the vendors who used to bargain and laugh also looked at each other one after another.

"Brother Xiao Zhang is an official?"

"I was lucky to be a petty official." Zhang Yang coped and bought some soybeans. Bought some pork ribs again.

The butcher who sold pork smiled and said, "Ten dollars for a pound of pork ribs." ”

Zhang Yanghu paid suspiciously, and now he doesn't bargain?

Where is everyone's old spirit of arguing and blushing for a penny?

Zhang Yang felt that the simplicity in his life was leaving him.

In the fifth year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin's court tended to be stable, and this time there was an originally low-key figure in the court who was mentioned in front of people.

Yang Gongren, an old minister of the former Sui clan, was promoted to Luozhou by Li Shimin, Luoyang is an important town in the Central Plains, giving up the prejudice of the previous dynasty, and Li Shimin's appointment of the former Sui minister's former minister also reflects Li Shimin's benevolent style.

For Li Shimin, an old black face, to be able to do this kind of thing, it is unknown whether there is a show in it

Standing in the middle of the court, Zhang Yang yawned, and standing and napping with Li Xiaogong has become a daily routine.

As for going to Zhongshu Province to take up a post, Zhang Yang completely left it behind.

One official will be given, and another will be given.

If you don't send it, can this official still let people do it well.

As a courtier in Datang, there are no weekends and no five insurances.

Not to mention the treatment, there are a lot of worries.

It doesn't even matter, and there's nothing worse than this.

At the end of the early dynasty, the ministers left the court.

The three of them listlessly returned to the government office of the Ministry of Rites.

Xu Jingzong was also numb, he finally understood what Li Xiaogong meant, and the Ministry of Rites was a place to care for the elderly.

There is no statute for Turkic affairs, the case files are scattered on the ground and have not been sorted out, and the matter explained by His Majesty can be said to have made no progress.

Xu Jingzong looked at Li Xiaogong again and began to sleep again.

Yes, it's the one that hasn't made any progress at all.

Look at Zhang Yang again, this guy writes and draws on a Turkic map and doesn't know what to think again.

One is that no matter how good the king of Hejian is, even if he is lazy, it will not be a big deal, and His Majesty will blame at most.

Look at Zhang Yang again, he is a concubine, no matter how bad this official is, he will not do it.

But what about yourself?

"Zhang Shilang, what should I do now about this Turkic matter?" Xu Jingzong asked tentatively.

"You're talking about the Turks."

Zhang Yang scratched his head, "If you don't say that I really forgot about this." ”

Xu Jingzong couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

Looking at the map again, Zhang Yang drew a very strange pattern on the map, huh...... It was a pig's head.

"We can't just ignore it." Xu Jingzong said in a low voice.

"What are you going to eat today?" Zhang Yang walked out of the Ministry of Rites in a tangled manner.

Xu Jingzong looked numbly.

Li Xiaogong's snoring began to come and go again.

In the palace, the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Shimin talked about Tuyuhun's affairs, "Your Majesty, Tuyuhun's envoy will go to Chang'an tomorrow to negotiate the matter of support before." ”

Li Shimin nodded and read the chapter, "Since this matter is handled by the Ministry of Rites, let the Ministry of Rites continue to handle the follow-up matters after the Ministry of Rites drafts the regulations." ”

At this point, Li Shimin hesitated, and then said: "You accompany Zhang Yang to do things together, and let Wei Chigong and Li Xiaogong also keep an eye on this matter." ”

"The minister understands, does Your Majesty think that Zhang Shilang is still young and needs to be polished?"

Li Shimin did not respond to his words, and still reviewed the recital.

The emperor's heart is unpredictable, and the eldest grandson Wuji doesn't want to ask more.

was about to walk out of the Xingqing Palace, and Li Shimin's words came again.

"What happened to the Turks last time, I handed it over to the Ministry of Rites, so many days have passed, there should be some eyebrows."

Speaking of this, the eldest grandson Wuji said helplessly: "Your Majesty, the minister also asked people to go to the Ministry of Rites to inquire, saying that there has been no progress so far. ”

Li Shimin frowned and put down the pen in his hand, "No progress? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji bowed and said, "Yes." ”

I also wonder if this Zhang Yang is really not suitable for the Ministry of Rites, and there has been no progress so far?

Li Shimin was in a bad mood, waved his hand and said, "If you have a chance, you can also mention him, let's get busy first." ”

"Whoa."

After a while, Li Shimin said to the little eunuch on the side, "Summons Li Junxian." ”

"Whoa."

Half an hour later, Li Junxian came to Xingqing Palace.

Li Shimin stood up and looked at the scenery outside the hall, "What is this Zhang Yang doing in the Ministry of Rites?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, this Zhang Yang has been on the court as usual for the past two days, and he will stay in the Ministry of Rites for a while after the next court, and he can stay for an hour in the first few days, and now after the next court, he will leave in less than half a moment in the Ministry of Rites."

……

The tea at home is stocked up again, and Zhang Yang is still very satisfied.

The poorer tea leaves can be used to boil tea eggs.

Li Yue peeled a tea egg and handed it to Zhang Yang, "Husband, eat first." ”

Zhang Yang also peeled a tea egg for Li Yue, and the couple ate it sweetly.

Between egg whites and egg yolks, Li Yue prefers to eat egg yolks.

Zhang Yang doesn't care, the egg white and egg yolk can be eaten together.

As the days passed, the weather at this time of year was the most comfortable, neither too hot nor too cold.

Zhang Yang brought a food box, and the food box was full of hot tea eggs and came to the Ministry of Rites leisurely, "Tea eggs made at home." ”

Li Xiaogong looked at the brown tea eggs suspiciously, "Tea eggs? ”

"It's an egg boiled with tea leaves."

Peeling some hot tea eggs, Li Xiaogong swallowed one in one bite and chewed it in his mouth, "It tastes good, you kid knows a little bit of filial piety." ”

Zhang Yang gave Xu Jingzong two more, "Don't dislike what you do." ”

"Thank you, Squire Zhang."

Other mansions in the imperial city were very busy, and the three people in the Ministry of Rites were eating tea eggs deliciously, a unique scenery.

The eldest grandson Wuji heard that the three people in the Ministry of Rites were not doing their jobs, and they still had the leisure to eat in the mansion, what kind of system!

Soon, a small official from Zhongshu Province came to the door of the Ministry of Rites.

In the Ministry of Rites, a scholar, two waiters, and three people chewed tea eggs in their mouths and looked at this little official who had just arrived here.

The whole government is filled with the fragrance of tea eggs.

The little official who was watching with three faces was a little flustered and at a loss, and subconsciously took a step back, "Medium...... Zhongshu Ling invited the three of them to take a trip to Zhongshu Province. ”

"I really can't stop eating an egg." Just stood up, Li Xiaogong put two more in his arms.

Zhang Yang carried the food box.

Xu Jingzong was still eating, and the three of them walked out of the Ministry of Rites.

The three of them who made gags had already gained a certain reputation among the various government offices, and now the three of them walked out of the Ministry of Rites together, and for a while everyone's eyes looked over.

Follow this little official all the way to Zhongshu Province.

This is the center of Datang's power, and many state affairs come out of here.

The eldest grandson Wuji was sitting inside, and there were many fresh faces, and Zhang Yang didn't know him, and he diligently handed out tea eggs to everyone.

"Do you eat tea eggs?"

“……”

"Homemade."

“……”

"If you think it tastes good, you will want to eat it in the future, and it will be sold when the Lishan fiefdom opens." Zhang Yang also introduced the business.

Those who can be officials in Zhongshu Province are not powerful people and have some economic conditions, these are all future customers.

“……”

Seeing that the eldest grandson Wuji had a headache, how could this horse look like a philistine.

The people in Zhongshu Province were holding tea eggs in their hands, and they didn't know what to say.

What a warm man......

Everyone was disturbed by Zhang Yang's enthusiasm for a while.

Zhang Yang distributed the tea eggs in front of the eldest grandson Wuji again, and saw that he took out two more with a black old face, "Zhao Guogong, you eat two more." ”

Everyone in Zhongshu Province looked at the eldest grandson Wuji.

The eldest grandson Wuji was stunned and speechless, and he really wanted to fork this guy out!

Seeing that His Majesty still likes this kid, the eldest grandson Wuji had no choice but to endure it, "This time I let your Ministry of Rites come for the Turkic affairs and the Tuyuhun affairs, and this time I will also let you discuss it together." ”

Lee quickly found his place here.

There are many people in Zhongshu Province, but all those who hold important positions in the DPRK are here.

There was still the last vacant seat left, and Zhang Yang and Xu Jingzong sat down together.

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the tea egg in front of him, "I just received the military report from the front, the blood of the Turkic royal court was the son of the first Bi Khan, and Ashinash Bobi was also the little Turki Khan who was fighting with Dur, Dur proclaimed himself Dubu Khan, and Xue Yantuo rebelled, and now it seems that the Turki Khan has gone to the general trend, and he is ready to come to Datang for help." ”

The grievances between the Central Plains and the Turks rose and fell, and what Li Shimin hoped most was that the Turks could become a barrier for the Tang Dynasty in Mobei.
