What he said just now made Xu Jingzong feel very comfortable, of course, he wanted to do everything by himself if he wanted to work hard in the Ministry of Rites back then.

Fortunately, the Ministry of Rites is now handed over to Zhang Da'an to take over, and the Ministry of Rites has streamlined a lot of people.

Most of the dismissed people went to Chongdefang or went to Lishan.

At the time of dismissal, he was given a lot of money, and those money were all from Lishan.

Now that he has been promoted to the post of Zhongshu Provincial Squire, Xu Jingzong feels that the burden on his body is much lighter, and the stone that has been hanging over his heart since that year has also fallen.

There is an extra child in the family, and Xu Jingzong has been picking him up at Hongwen Hall recently and bringing him to dinner.

remembered the words of the county marquis's warning, even if it is unscrupulous, we must pay attention to proportion, what can be done and what cannot be done.

Now looking at Di Renjie, a little fat man, Xu Jingzong feels that his heart is being washed again and again.

In the winter of the fourteenth year of Zhenguan, two Taoist priests walked out of the Suzaku Gate.

Their footsteps were firm, and they walked out of Chunming Gate step by step.

It is rumored in the palace that after Yuan Daochang and Li Daochang met His Majesty, they said a lot and presented the results of this time.

It is impossible to know what was offered.

On the streets of Chang'an City, a group of young people who graduated from Lishan are very sought-after as soon as they enter the city.

Without it, it is because Lishan's skills are easy to use and advanced.

Songtsen Gampo stood in front of this man, and in front of him there were several things, which were set up in a stall to be sold.

"This is Zhenguan ruler, this is Zhenguan melon."

Songtsen Gampo squatted down and observed a ruler on the stall, as well as half a shriveled pumpkin, which was shriveled and must not be eaten.

He asked, "You just returned from studying art in Lishan, and you're going to sell these two good things in your hand?" Do you know that the Lishan ruler is worth 500 yuan in the market. ”

The man whispered, "Dare to ask, do you want to buy it?" ”

Songtsen Gampo hesitated for a moment, then took out a piece of silver cake and handed it over, he planned to buy this Zhenguan ruler and send it to Tibet.

It is rumored that with this ruler the casting process can be improved a lot.

Although I don't know if there is really such a miracle, as for how to use it, it involves the blind spot of Songtsen Gampo's knowledge.

If only there were decent craftsmen in Tibet, there would be no need to think about using cow dung to build walls all day long.

When he looked back again, the ruler seller was already far away.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Songtsen Gampo carefully put away the ruler.

The person who sold the ruler was called Wei Zhe, and his ancestor was originally a gate valve in the north, but after the family background withered, he went to Longyou in the west and became the gate valve of Longyou.

Due to the implementation of the imperial examination in the court, Wei Zhe could not enter the official position in the shadow of the door, so he had to come to the imperial examination hard.

Wei Zhe came to a fang city, where he met Zhang Cambodia, who was also from the former Sui Wang clan.

The two teenagers smelled the same, and Wei Zhe came here to eat and drink after selling the ruler and pumpkin for the silver money.

Zhang Khan Zhizhi: "I wanted to introduce Renjie to you, but he loves to read history books, right...... What do you do in Lishan? ”

Wei Zhe lamented: "Of course, I went to Lishan to pay homage to the immortals, and then I entered the Technical Institute of Lishan, and I stayed for more than half a year, but I still didn't see the immortals." ”

Zhang Cambodia said lightly: "Di Renjie has seen it." ”

"Really?"

"Hmm." Zhang Cambodia's eyes looked at him faintly, "The students of Lishan Technical Academy are not in the ranks. ”

"So I sold a ruler and a pumpkin, and I have nothing to do with Lishan again."

Zhang Cambodia's fox doubted: "Do you want to worship under the immortal sect and rely on the recommendation of the immortal to enter the office!" ”

Without waiting for Wei Zhe to explain, Zhang Cambodia shouted angrily: "Okay, you are a good person to kill talents, you want to be such a side door, you can't become a talent like this, you can't be as outstanding as a certain family." ”

Wei Zhe whispered: "Actually, when I come to Chang'an, I have to go to see Zhao Guogong." ”

"Zhao Guogong?"

"Hmm." Wei Zhe's expression finally returned to his normal shape, and he was a little more serious, "Since Tian Khan ascended the throne, he has repeatedly reduced the number of soldiers on the right side of Longyou, and he has also reduced the fields of many gate lords again and again. ”

The more Wei Zhe said, the more frustrated he became, "One of the Longyou gate valves has become the most withered one, so I let me go down to Chang'an, and I want to ask Zhao Guogong what he means." ”

Zhang Cambodia looked him up and down, this person was wearing coarse linen clothes with patches, obviously living a depressed life, not like a high-ranking disciple.

He didn't care what the situation in Longyou was, he only heard the words of seeing Zhao Guogong, poured the wine into the bowl, and whispered: "Can you bring it to Zhao Guogong below, even if you can't be introduced, it's excellent to listen to some imperial examination strategies." ”

Wei Zhe said angrily: "Okay! You're a bastard too. ”

had a drink with Zhang Cambodia, and the next day, Wei Zhe took Zhang Cambodia to see Zhao Guogong.

The two lingered in front of the door for a long time, and finally saw Zhao Guogong, who had just left the court.

While listening to the words of the attendants beside him, the eldest grandson Wuji saw the two boys standing outside the door.

Zhang Cambodia naturally doesn't need to mention it, he wandered around Chang'an City to play with a group of powerful disciples.

Looking at the other one, the eldest grandson Wuji said in a deep voice: "Long You are here? ”

"Back to Zhao Guogong, the boy Wei Zhe came from the Longyou Military Mansion, and his father joined the army from the Longyou Mansion......"

"Okay, the old man knows who you are." The eldest grandson Wuji walked into the mansion with a calm face.

The two boys first tried it, and then saw that there was no hindrance, so they boldly followed.

Sui Yang originated from the Longyou gate valve, and Li Tang Jiangshan also started from the Longyou door valve.

As early as the time of the former Sui Dynasty, the Sui Emperor was well aware of the harm of the gate valve, and later introduced the imperial examination system, accepting the people available in the world for his own use, wanting to check and balance the gate valve.

And the Longyou gate valve has also been left to the present, although it is not as good as it was back then, but their prestige is still there.

Thinking of the old feelings when he started the army, Li Yuan would give them some comfort and benefits.

But after Li Shimin ascended the throne, it was a different situation, and now His Majesty is stuck in the neck of the gate valve, waiting for the day when they breathe.

Wei Zhe was originally a young man in his early twenties, and he took out his cloth silk and seal letter, "The villain can't say too much, this is a letter from each family, please Zhao Guogong take a look." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji waved his hand and said, "The old man understands, you can step down." ”

The tone was as softened as possible, not wanting the kid to see his impatience.

You still have to be cautious when dealing with Longyou's gang.

After all, there are still old feelings, and His Majesty feels that it is not time to turn his face

Outside Zhao Guogong's mansion, Zhang Cambodia looked at him, "It turned out that he was here to deliver a letter." ”

Wei Zhe said sadly: "What does Brother Cambodia think? ”

"Are all the children of Longyoumen like you?"

"Hehehe, those guys might as well be down, stupid as pigs."

Zhang Cambodia lamented: "The right gate valve of Longyou is finished. ”

Thinking about it again, it was not right, Zhang Cambodia asked, "What did you learn in Lishan?" ”

"Artisan."

"I remember that the students who have graduated from Lishan will give a ruler, and the ruler is very exquisite."

“……”

"Hey, where's your ruler?"

Wei Zhe replied: "Of course it was sold, otherwise how would I live in Chang'an on the day of the imperial examination next year, I would be starving." ”

"You...... You're ......"

"How?"

Zhang Cambodia stomped his feet in pity, patted his thighs and wailed: "Stupid! It's too stupid, there are children and grandchildren like this, the right gate valve of Longyou is finished, it is finished. ”

In front of Lishan Village, the railway was finally built for three miles.

Zhang Yang was slipping Xiong Da, and looked at the king of Hejian not far away, he was sneaking a group of dogs.

Even Xiong Da cast a disdainful gaze.

Zhang Yang handed the two apples to the prince, "These are the last two apples in Lishan." ”

Apples are small, like eggs.

And it tastes very jerky and unpalatable.

Wang Gonggong took it with a smile and explained: "Your Majesty, if you want to taste the immortal fruit of this Lishan Mountain, the old slave will send it." ”

Accepting the apple, the old man said again: "Your Majesty also said that after this year, the old slave will come to Lishan to take care of the emperor." ”

Zhang Yang smiled happily, "You don't want to be old, and you have to guard the Zhaoling Tomb." ”

The prince bowed, and without replying or squeaking, he departed with the apple.

As the emperor's eunuch, it is the greatest honor in his life for him to be able to stay in Zhaoling.

This is also the noblest ideal of a eunuch.

Idealistic thinking, is this ideal really noble?

Li Tai ran over quickly, "Brother-in-law, the two Dao Masters are here." ”

Zhang Yang sat down on the stone steps in front of the village, the bear always liked to lie on its stomach, its two strong claws resting on its shoulders.

Waiting for all the weight of this bear to weigh on his body, Zhang Yang almost didn't sit still.

The bear in winter is like a child, clingy and lazy.

"Big Bear!" Xiao Qingqing shouted in the distance.

The bear didn't go over either, still lying on its stomach.

Not far away, Li Yue, Princess Wei, and the Red Whisk Girl were talking, laughing constantly during the conversation, mostly talking about very interesting things.

It wasn't until Xiao Qingqing walked briskly, carrying the bear's big ears, that the big animal was pulled away.

Zhang Yang thought about it, last night when the child's mother was careful to listen to her ears, most of this girl went to school.

Just as he was thinking about it, the two Dao Masters had already walked in front of him.

Zhang Yang arched his hand and said, "I've seen two Taoist masters. ”

Yuan Tiangang stroked his beard and said, "Let's talk about what gravity is." ”

"Gravity." Zhang Yang smiled: "Gravity is gravity, all objects on this land are subject to gravity, it is everywhere, whether it is under our feet or outside the sky." ”

As he spoke, his eyes looked at the sky, and Zhang Yang said loudly: "Even the stars outside the sky can't escape the effect of gravity. ”

Yuan Tiangang looked at Li Tai.

Li Tai snorted coldly, his expression seemed to say, how could this king understand such profound words.

Yuan Tiangang said again: "Apple? Smashed your head? ”

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Actually, I realized the Tao with Yuan Dao in a dream, so there is such a rumor. ”

"This gravitational pull is also what you realized in your dreams?"

"It was to sit with Yuan Dao in a dream and discuss the Tao, and naturally he also comprehended it in a dream."

"Well, no wonder I haven't been sleeping well lately."

Very good, there is one more legend in Chang'an City, Li Tai wants to laugh but can't laugh, this legend is mostly that the Marquis of Lishan County and Yuan Daochang did not meet.

But you can meet in a dream, sit and talk about the Tao in a dream, so as to comprehend the truth of heaven and earth.

Looking at Yuan Daochang's expression, and he was still very useful, Li Tai sighed, how many people in the ignorant world would listen to this rumor.

Zhang Yang invited the two Taoist chiefs into Lishan Village.

The village was peaceful, and Zhang Yang, as a guide, said: "Look at this water and this mountain, how good, Li Daochang can go to the academy to teach mathematics, Yuan Daochang can retire here, and tease dogs and catch fish with the king ......of Hejian County, hurry up."

In his boasting, Zhang Yang described this place as a retirement resort.

This is the best place for the elderly, first of all, Lishan is in the east of Chang'an City, the geographical location is very good, the sun shines on Lishan first, and then shines on Chang'an City, and now the wind and sand in the northwest will not blow here.

arranged a house for Yuan Daochang and Li Daochang.

Zhang Yang asked, "I heard that after Daochang Yuan and Daochang Li retreated this time, they gained a lot and offered something to Your Majesty?" ”

Yuan Tiangang stroked his beard and nodded, "I have learned too much in this life, and I may die one day." ”

"You're always talking weirdly and cute."

Zhang Yang said jokingly.

Yuan Tiangang said again: "And that day is not far away." ”

"You're funny."

The old Taoist priest's eyes looked at Xiao Qingqing, who was playing with a group of girls of the same age, and Xiong Da was still asleep on the ground, allowing the group of female dolls to spread flowers and plants on it.

"Lao Dao wants to accept your daughter as a disciple, but she has been reluctant."

Zhang Yang held his hand and explained: "She has a lot of teachers, and her daily classes are also very tight, and she has only recently given her free time to play, if Yuan Daochang wants to be her teacher, she has to agree to it." ”

Yuan Tiangang sighed: "You spoil your daughter like this, you will spoil her." ”

"In fact, her burden is already very heavy, I'm afraid she can't learn too much, now she has to learn mathematics, literacy and calligraphy, calligraphy, and occasionally physical education classes, and then she has to learn martial arts with the Red Whisk Girl, and learn the art of war with Li Jing's general."

Li Tai added: "I also have to follow this king to learn physics. ”

"Well, you're also a strict father, when you're as old as her...... I couldn't eat at that time. ”

After saying that, he pondered for a while, and then looked at Zhang Yang's expression, he said quite sympathetically: "It seems that you have to learn a lot when you are a child, you are like this, and so is your daughter, Lishan will prosper." ”

Zhang Yang's face was expressionless, and he said in his heart that he had been studying when he got up when he was a child, from the first nine years to the later college entrance examination.

"I, as a father, still envy my daughter, I have been studying hard since I was a child, and my family is poor and dare not slack off."

Li Tai pricked up his ears and listened carefully, the past about his brother-in-law has always been a mystery, and his father has not found the old man of Qinling so far.

And who is my brother-in-law's mentor? Where are my brother-in-law's brothers and sisters?

What kind of people are they, looking for them but not finding them, can they really go to heaven and earth?

Zhang Yang asked in a low voice: "Dare to ask Daoist Yuan, there must be an epiphany in this retreat, can Your Majesty inquire about the fortune of the Tang Dynasty?" ”

"I haven't asked, Your Majesty is the Ming Monarch, the Heavenly Khan admired by all people, you don't have to ask this, and you won't ask."

Zhang Yang wanted to know, where is the legendary figure that calculates the future fortune and the current push back map, is there really such a picture?

Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang chattered, as long as they don't say it, Your Majesty doesn't say it, Tui Beitu is still a mystery in history after all.
