Chapter 57: Good News
Legendary.
At the peak of the dynasty called the Tang Dynasty.
In Chang'an City, there are 1.8 million permanent residents, and the number of people entering and leaving the city gate every day is as high as a terrifying 3 million.
Compared to the Tang Dynasty.
The Shen Guojing Master Shengshen City under the Hangu realm is even better.
What a majestic city.
The brass nails on the city gate were as big as wheels, and the walls were nine feet and nine feet high.
When viewed from below, it looks like you're standing under a hill, and you can't even get a full view of the city walls.
Of course.
This is the paradise of the conspirators, the hell of the downcast.
The vegetable buns that cost a penny outside are sold for two pennies here.
Three pennies wontons, here for five pennies a bowl.
Don't say it's expensive.
If you dare to say that, someone will reply to you in a long voice: 'Where did the hillbilly come from, do you know where this is, the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, I can't stand this, go back to my hometown as soon as possible.' ’
As the saying goes: 'The noble land is deceiving, the rich land is sorrowful and the thief, and there is nothing more important in the world.' ’
St. Shen.
East District, Anding Street.
Fortune Building.
"Ten people, five upper rooms."
"Every morning, noon, and dinner, the meal is ready and delivered to the room."
Originally, according to the meaning of Princess Luo Ling.
She has a princess's mansion in the imperial capital, and Jiang Xuan and his party can live with her.
If there are many suspicious people, there is also a mountain villa outside the city, and everything in it is available, and it is like living at home.
It's just that Jiang Xuan refused.
Reactive power is not punished.
He escorted Princess Luo Ling to the south, and Princess Luo Ling applied for him to enter the royal arsenal, which was a transaction in itself.
Now that the matter is done, one is one, two is two, and the place that should be calculated clearly must be clear.
Jiang Xuan didn't want to be classified into the princess party, and he didn't want to get involved in the struggle between Princess Luo Ling and other princes and princesses.
"Jiang Zhenchuan."
"Your place is remote enough, so that the miscellaneous family can find it."
Evening.
Gonggong Hong came with a few little eunuchs, and he didn't come empty-handed, and he also brought two carts of gifts: "Concubine Niangniang lives in the deep palace, it is inconvenient to meet foreign guests, but Niangniang is still thinking about you, no, let me bring some gifts, saying that it is to thank you for taking care of the fourteenth princess along the way." ”
The little eunuch carried his things inside.
Jiang Xuan looked at it.
Antiques, calligraphy and paintings, ginseng, treasures, and some gold and silver jewelry and silk satin.
Let's talk about preciousness.
For ordinary people, these are good things, which can solve thousands of sufferings.
Let's say it's not precious.
Jiang Xuan is very rich and has little interest in things that can be bought with money.
"Gonggong Hong, where is the token for borrowing the arsenal classics?"
Compared with these mundane things, Jiang Xuan cares more about the practical.
"Jiang Zhenchuan is also too anxious..."Hong Gong laughed openly: "Every token for borrowing the arsenal classics is unique, and the matter of the concubine Niangniang has come forward, and the Zongren Mansion has already allowed it, and when the token is made tomorrow morning, it will be sent to you." ”
Jiang Xuan smiled: "It's all up to Gonggong Hong." ”
said.
Jiang Xuan stuffed two silver tickets with a denomination of 1,000 taels, and whispered: "You can't let your father-in-law run away in vain, you drink tea..."
"That's embarrassing."
Gonggong Hong looked left and right, quickly put away the silver ticket, and then thought that he was not a person who took money for nothing, so he advised: "In the imperial city, all the princes and princesses, on the surface, are kind, but secretly, open and secret battles are indispensable, the fourteenth princess can be a person, and the relationship with other princes is good, only the sixteenth prince..."
lowered her voice: "Concubine Shuniang was not born to be a concubine, do you say that is the truth." ”
Jiang Xuan understands in seconds.
The palace is a place of high hierarchy, and so is the harem.
At the top is the Queen.
Below the queen are the four concubines of Gui, Shu, De and Xian.
Further down.
Twelve concubines, thirty-six nobles, seventy-two beauties.
Although Gonggong Hong did not say it explicitly, the meaning of his words was: 'When Concubine Shuniang was still a concubine, she competed with the mother of the sixteenth prince for the position of the fourth concubine. ’
As a result.
Obviously, it was Concubine Shu who won, and she became Concubine Shu, so the mother of the sixteenth prince was naturally pressed to death in the position of Concubine Bin.
"There is a saying that the son inherits the father's business, and there is also a saying that the son inherits the father's hatred."
Gonggong Hong said bluntly: "Although the sixteenth prince can't practice martial arts, he is a famous sick man, but the mother family can't be underestimated, and he is the famous Zhuguo Gong. ”
"And the sixteenth prince likes to read, what Hanlin Academy, arsenal, there is no place he doesn't go."
"Jiang Zhenchuan will enter the arsenal tomorrow to study, I can't say that I will meet the sixteenth prince, the relationship between the sixteenth prince and the princess is not good, and in the eyes of outsiders, the true legend is that you are the princess, so don't blame the miscellaneous family for talking too much, there is no trivial matter in the palace, when the time comes, you must keep an eye on it, don't be like those hares, let people put it on the next set."
As soon as I heard this.
Jiang Xuan wrote down the sixteen princes in his heart, and replied with a smile: "Don't worry, Gonggong Hong, I am the most afraid of trouble, and I will definitely be careful." ”
"It's not that exaggerated."
Gong Hong meant something: "Her Royal Highness the princess has been favored by the saints, and now she has replaced Her Majesty to inspect the border passes, and has also entered the realm of the grandmaster, and her position in the palace is more stable, and it is expected that the sixteen princes will not be able to set off any storms." ”
said.
Gonggong Hong thought of one more thing: "Jiang Zhenchuan, if I remember correctly, the newly appointed Baishou Palace Sect Leader Yue Zhenren seems to be your master." ”
Jiang Xuan nodded.
His mentor, Yue Zhishan, was the Elder of Jingfang, and ranked sixth in the Hundred Shou Palace.
In terms of rights.
The real person of the servant crane is the first in charge.
The head of the three capitals, the real person Yuan Zhixin, ranked second.
Speaking of real people ranked third, and real people ranked fourth.
Further down.
Elder Wufang ranked fifth, and Elder Jingfang ranked sixth.
If it were according to the ranking, Elder Yue should not be in charge.
But what's the matter.
Yuan Zhuxin assassinated the real person of Fuhe, apostasy, and set up his own door.
As a result, the other two real people who were in his team, that is, both talking real people and cooking real people, suddenly became embarrassed, so the position of the head of the sect would not consider them, and he could only choose one of the two elders of the martial arts room and the elders of the Jingfang.
Now that it is chosen by Elder Yue, Jiang Xuan is not surprised by this.
His mentor is a staunch royalist, and compared to him, Elder Wufang's faction is not obvious, and he is relatively neutral in his life and work.
Baishou Palace was single-handedly supported by the Luo royal family, and its location was also within the territory of Shen State.
It is impossible for the Shen royal family to let a neutral faction be the head of the Baishou Palace, so this game of chess is here, and the person who takes over the head of the sect can only be Elder Yue.
"Jiang Zhen passed on the good fate."
"Now that Elder Yue has taken up the position of the head of the Baishou Palace, as a disciple of Elder Yue, Jiang Zhenchuan can be regarded as the head of the sect."
Gonggong Hong first congratulated him twice, and then said: "I don't know if you have received the news, Your Majesty has recruited Yue Zhangjiao to return to Beijing to face the saint, count the days, Yue Zhangjiao is also coming." ”
Well?
Think of the flying pigeon biography that he tore off and asked him to return to the mountain gate to report on his work.
Jiang Xuan's face was expressionless: "It's really good news." ”
