The prince's wedding is a very important event in the imperial court, and it is celebrated by the whole world. During the ceremony, all kinds of cars are indispensable, the missing ones must be made, the damaged ones must be repaired, the old flags must be replaced, the patterns are dull to be re-painted, and the car government department will start to be busy for a while.

There was such a happy event in the imperial court, and of course Shu Yan was also happy. He leads his craftsmen to work every day with great interest. Suddenly, on this day, the servant Qing Shi Chong led a person to the Chefu Bureau, saying that he was a Sima in the Lu Gong's Mansion and wanted to find Shu Yan. Shu Yan knew that the so-called Lu Gongfu was actually Jia Mi's mansion, although he didn't like him, but the prince's car driving was within the scope of the responsibility of the Chefu Bureau, so he had no choice but to receive him.

"Presumably there is something wrong with the Anche in your house?"

Na Sima said: "That's exactly what happened. ”

"The Anche of your mansion should be served, but now that the prince's wedding is imminent, this is a major event of the imperial court, and everything should be taken care of at present, and all the other affairs are temporarily put on hold, and they will only be taken care of after the ceremony is completed."

Shu Yan replied tactfully and politely, but the man smiled indifferently and said, "This can't wait." The prince's wedding, my family's prince is also going to get married, how can I wait? ”

"Lieutenant General Jia is married, and Shu knows that although it is not trivial, it is a private matter after all. The wedding of the crown prince is an important ceremony of the country, and the two cannot be compared, and they cannot be obeyed. ”

When Sima heard this, his face immediately sank, and when Shi Chong saw it, he hurriedly said to him with a smile: "Don't be anxious, this matter can still be discussed." ”

A dignified and knighted giant in the court, treating a little Sima in the prince's mansion with such a gesture! Shu Yan was very funny. But I heard Shi Chong and then said to himself: "Shu Yan, what are you talking about, do you dare to reject Jia Shizhong's request?" Although the current prince's wedding is imminent, it is more urgent, but the arrangements and arrangements are hurried, after all, it can help Jia Shizhong's Anche to deal with it, why let this honorable driver run for nothing! ”

When his boss spoke, he gave himself an order. Although Shu Yan was unwilling, he couldn't refute it, so he had to agree: "The lower official knows." ”

"That's right." Sima smiled, "I've already driven the car over today, take a look." ”

"Today? Not today......" Before Shu Yan finished speaking, he saw Shi Chong glaring at him, and in desperation, he had to swallow back the half of the words.

I followed Na Sima outside, and sure enough, I saw a two-horse cart parked, and the banner umbrella cover was very powerful, even taller and more gorgeous than Shi Hui's.

Shu Yan looked around and asked, "This car is in good condition, what else is it going to do?" ”

Na Sima smiled: "Just change the oil painting and the flag slightly." ”

"It's just a re-painting, no need to change it!"

"If you want to change it, change the bear pattern on the car to the deer pattern, and change the Qihan flag to Jiuhan."

"What?" As soon as these words came out, not only Shu Yan, but also Shi Chong were startled, "Lu Shi and Jingqi Jiuhan, these two are the driving standards of the crown prince, and this cannot be changed." The driver must have made a mistake, but those who don't know are not to blame, go back and ask for clarity before coming. ”

"Hmph." Na Sima smiled disdainfully, "Why make such a fuss, what's wrong with this?" Do you think my prince will take the prince in his eyes? Even the pre-selected crown princess can be replaced, what is a safe car? Whether you can change it or not, you can do it yourself, so you can do it yourself! Leaving this sentence aside, Sima walked away.

Shu Yan was simply angry: "It's the opposite, it's the opposite, is it okay to pay back such rebellious words?" ”

Shi Chong knew that Shu Yanzhong was upright, so he comforted: "It's just a little Sima, why should you bother with him." ”

Shu Yan said angrily: "It's okay not to bother with him, but I can't agree to his request." ”

"This can't be neglected, Jia Shizhong is a relative of Empress Jia, but he can't afford to offend."

"What's wrong with Empress Jia? Is the Great Jin the world of the Jia family or the world of the Sima family? Is he more noble than the crown prince? ”

"On the surface, of course, there is no crown prince dignity. But I'll tell you the truth, if you treat the prince slowly, there may be no hindrance, but if you offend Jia Shizhong, it will be terrible! ”

"What is Ming Gong's name? Mencius has a cloud: 'Mighty and unyielding'. We serve the court, how can we bow down to the powerful! ”

"Hmph." Shi Chong sneered and said, "What the sage said is indeed respectable, but people can't help themselves in their official careers, don't get along with the future, if you want to chase fame and fortune, you have to be tactful and flattering, how can you do it like you?" If you don't think about yourself, you should think about me, right? ”

The two of them were arguing over this matter, when they suddenly heard someone shouting, "What are you yelling at Brother Shu?" ”

I am dignified, who is so bold that he dares to call me a puppet! Shi Chong turned his head and saw that it was Jiang Xiaomo. Xiao Mo's level is much smaller than Shi Chong's, but Xiao Mo is not a high level, but he has a special identity, and he is arrogant and independent, which is an alternative in officialdom. He does not form parties for personal gain, nor does he participate in power schemes, so no one wants to offend him, nor does he treat him as an opposing force.

Shi Chong helplessly pointed at him with his hand and said, "You cook, so rude!" Shu Yan is my subordinate, I admonish him, it is righteous, how can you interject! ”

"This is the imperial court office, not your home. My eldest brother Shu is your subordinate, not your house slave. There is a national law to follow in everything, even as a boss, and you can't reprimand people casually. Tell me why, I'll judge you? ”

"This ......" Shi Chong couldn't speak, so he shook his hand angrily and walked away.

When Shu Yan saw Xiao Mo, of course his mood improved, so he asked Xiao Mo why.

Xiao Mo said: "The prince's wedding, and there is another feast, and there must be some fresh ingredients, I will go to the West Market with the people from the Taiguan Office today to have a look and purchase." Because they were not far from you, I let them go first, and I turned here. ”

"How can you do it for the sake of private affairs and ignore official affairs?"

Xiao Mo smiled: "It doesn't matter, whether I go or not, it doesn't matter at all." Tell me why you were upset about what you just did. ”

Shu Yan said what he had just done.

Xiao Mo exclaimed: "Jia Mi is really a thief's ambition!" ”

Although Shu Yan was angry at the words of the retainer of the Jia family, he felt that Xiao Mo's words were a bit exaggerated, "You are talking nonsense again, it is just the arrogant words of an ignorant house slave, how can you conclude his master like this?" ”

"There are some things you may not know. Jia Mi not only showed off his martial arts outside, but also did not shy away from it in the palace, relying on Empress Jia's favor, freely entering and leaving the palace, competing with the prince everywhere, without any condescension. smelled that the daughter of the royal family was beautiful, and she was selected as the crown princess, so she changed the eldest daughter to herself, and changed the little daughter of the Wang family who was originally promised to her as the crown princess. Now he is asking for the same chariot battle as the prince, isn't this a wolf's ambition? I didn't say it would be nice if he had a heart of disobedience. ”

"If it's just the ignorance of that house slave, if it's really as you say, with bad intentions, I can't change the chariot fight for him."

"Why bother, you're just a small Chefu order, what can you resist? Even if you don't receive the order, your boss can take you down and change to someone else, and you don't dare to offend Jia Mi. After all, it didn't help. ”

"Although I can't stop his wolf ambitions, I can at least guarantee that I won't help the abuse, I'd rather not do this car government order than help him!"

Xiao Mo looked at Shu Yan intently for a long time: "Okay." Do you talk count? You will resign immediately, and go to the end of the world with me, can you let it go? ”

"Uh......" Shu Yan was asked by Xiao Mo and was embarrassed.

"If you can't put it down, don't say something like that. You can't give up on this career path yet. Since we have to continue to go down, we have to find a way to deal with the problem at hand. ”

"What can be done?"

"Give him an ambiguous face. Didn't he say that he was going to change the bear ornament on the carriage to a deer ornament? You can change it for him. Xiao Mo looked at Shu Yan, who was unwilling to compromise, and pursed his lips and smiled, "Anyway, don't you change it to a deer like a deer, and a bear like a bear?" ”

"A deer is not like a deer, and a bear is not like a bear, that is to say, ......it is a little more vague," Shu Yan muttered, "Oh, I know, just like Zhao Gao in Qin Shi referred to the deer as a horse, there is a vague confusion, saying that a deer is a deer, and saying that a horse is a horse." Wonderful, wonderful. As a result, there is also a way to change the Qihan flag to the Jiuhan flag, only the lower end of the two of the seven can be divided, and from a distance, it is still Qiyang, only when you sit under the banner and look at it, it looks like a Jiuhan. Who would deliberately pay attention to these details except those who knew it in advance? The prince's car is three horses, and Jia Mi's car is two horses. He was finally not arrogant enough to rebuild Anche. ”

"He's fledgling, and of course he doesn't dare to be very presumptuous. Although the kings of the Sima family are independent, their strength is extraordinary, and he has to be afraid. ”

The two chatted for a while, and Shu Yan remembered: "I've been delayed here for so long, I'm afraid it's too late for you to go to Xishi, I just made a car here, I want to try it on the road, why don't I give you a ride." ”

Xiao Mo was very happy when he heard Shu Yan offer to drive him personally. In fact, she had long forgotten about the people who were with the Taiguan Bureau.

Every time the Chefu Bureau does a good job of driving a car, Shu Yan has to test drive it himself. See what the problem is, whether the wheels are round, whether the two wheels are commensurate, whether there is any abnormal noise, whether the frame is firmly connected, whether the car is coordinated with the cow and horse, etc. It was out of a serious and responsible attitude, but it allowed him to practice excellent driving skills. When he was a child, his grandfather's expectation of him was not to be an official and seek high-ranking officials, but to pursue the way of a gentleman, through the five classics and six arts. But it's easy to say, it's not easy to do, how many people can really do it? It's easier for the children of rich families, but those from poor families don't even think about it. Needless to say, the Pentateuch was mastered since childhood under the guidance of his grandfather and father. The Six Arts are not easy. There are 3,000 disciples under Confucius, and there are only 72 sages who have mastered the six arts. Shu Yan has gone through a series of coincidences, and among the six arts of etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics, he is only proficient in five arts, and he is still short of royal arts, that is, he is not familiar with driving. It just so happened that this time he made a car government order, which fulfilled him.

When he was Shang Shulang, he was dressed in beautiful court clothes, sitting in the inner court hall with a comfortable expression, and facing either princes and ministers or beautiful court maids every day; And made the Chefu Order, dressed in a crown dress without much brilliance, nesting in this inconspicuous office every day, looking up is the craftsman servant, and looking down is the oxen, horse, and cart. From Shang Shulang to Chefu Order, it was a change from a clean official to a turbid official, a downward trend that was not optimistic. Unexpectedly, with all kinds of disadvantages and advantages, Shu Yan was able to extensively and comprehensively practice his control skills, and completely fulfilled his desire to master the five classics and six arts. For him, he cares more about being a perfect gentleman than being promoted and getting rich.

Some people died, but not completely......
