"Sauvignon Blanc" Northern Song Dynasty Yan Jidao

Changan.

Chu Wangfu.

Wang Mang casually put down the letter sent back by Chen Xun and the prison army, and without raising his eyelids, he asked, "What about your news?" ”

The soap-clothed man who was half-kneeling at the bottom of the hall said respectfully: "Marshal: His subordinates sent people to monitor day and night, and General Zhenbei does have the ability to lead troops." First, he took advantage of the heavy rain to win the hearts of the people, and then defeated Youtanbo, who had been entrenched in Liangzhou for several years, in one fell swoop in the West River Valley, and also took advantage of this to subdue some thieves into the military camp. The subordinates also received a secret report that the supervision army sent by the marshal had been completely emptied, and the power of the entire army had now been fully controlled by General Zhenbei. ”

Wang Mang hummed noncommittally, and asked again, "Is there any movement in the Changshi Mansion recently?" ”

"Since General Zhenbei went out on the expedition, the Changshi Mansion has closed its doors, and even Galangal has been turned away. Except for the housekeeper Caibo of the Changshi Mansion who went out to buy vegetables every five days, no one entered or left the Changshi Mansion anymore. ”

"What about Qingfeng Tower?"

"Master, Qingfeng Lou is still doing business, but, just,"

"Just what?" Wang Mang raised his head.

"It's just that the cook in Qingfeng Mansion doesn't seem to have shown up for a long time. The subordinates once asked to see the cook under the pretext that the food was not right, but the shopkeeper said that the cook's wife was sick and returned to her hometown, and she would not be able to come back until half a month later. ”

Wang Mang waved his hand: "I know, you can do these little things yourself." Also, in the future, you can't call Galangal by his name anymore, after all, this person will be used alone in the future. ”

The big man with a beard on his face said respectfully: "Handsome, there is only a handsome man in the eyes of Wei Xuan Jiuchen, and everyone else is treated as an exception." ”

Wang Mang nodded approvingly and handed him a scroll: "Lone knows that you are loyal, very good." From today onwards, the personnel who monitored the Changshi Mansion will be removed. You will rest for a few days, and in three days you will take someone to Dongjun, and the specific matters have been written in it, so go and return quickly. ”

Xuan Jiuchen took the scroll, flashed after giving the salute, and disappeared.

Wang Mang stretched out in surprise and muttered, "Mr. is really an unborn genius!" ”

At this time, the old housekeeper came in to report and said that Liu Xin, a doctor from Taizhong, asked to see him. Wang Mang was overjoyed, ordered the main hall to see the guests, and went straight out of the room. In the late autumn afternoon, the sun shines on my body, and it is a little warm.

Wang Mang guessed correctly, Liu Xin came for his own mausoleum. It stands to reason that only the emperor is qualified to build a mausoleum from the beginning of his accession to the throne, which is a rule set by the first emperor of the previous dynasty. But Wang Mang has already regarded himself as the emperor of the Han Dynasty and the de facto ruler in his heart, and this has almost become the consensus of the whole world, so when Wang Mang changed the name of the year to regent, he secretly instructed Liu Xin to prepare the land of dragon control for himself.

Liu Xin also tried his best to meet this non-point request, although he did not approve of this matter. Liu Xin was a Huangmenlang when he first entered the office, and coincidentally, Wang Mang at that time was also a Huangmenlang. Both of them are quite interested in the study of scriptures, and with similar interests, the relationship between the two quickly warmed up. Ten years ago, Liu Xin's father Liu Xiang died, and according to the etiquette system, he had to keep filial piety for three years. Although he already had a little fame at that time, there were more than 1,000 Huangmenlang in the entire Shaofu, and when he returned from filial piety, he might never have a bright future. Although he was reluctant in his heart, he had to comply with the Han who established the country with filial piety. Unexpectedly, when he returned to Shaofu three years later, the former Huangmenlang Wang Mang had become a hot Sima, and he was naturally recommended by Wang Mang as a lieutenant in the middle base. Two years ago, Wang Mang was promoted by Zhongqing as Zai Heng, and he also followed the chicken dog to heaven, was named the Red Marquis, and became a veritable nobleman of the Han Dynasty, and the relationship between the two became deeper and deeper.

Just thinking about it, Wang Mang had already strode in: "Brother Zijun, is there any good news to tell Brother Yu when you pass through the house today?" ”

Liu Xin was in charge of the salute and was stopped by Wang Mang.

"You and I brothers, why should you be so polite. Tell me, what's the good news? ”

Liu Xin smiled and nodded: "Brother really guessed accurately." The younger brother already knows the exact number of Rija Scale. ”

Wang Mang skillfully boiled the tea sent by the old housekeeper, and said with a smile: "As far as the foolish brother knows, this matter has been bothering the virtuous brother for a long time, why did he suddenly have an answer?" Virtuous brother, don't prevaricate and say that it is obtained in a dream, just a dream, but you can't fool the foolish brother! He laughed out loud.

Liu Xin took the hot tea filled with green onion and ginger with both hands, took a sip, squinted his eyes with a slight aftertaste, and said with a smile: "Good tea!" Good craftsmanship! ”

Then he put down the tea and said slowly: "It's a shame to say that the accurate number of this law is not the credit of the younger brother, but the handwriting of Du Wu, the general of Zhenbei. Fifteen days ago, when General Zhenbei set out on the expedition, his disciple Gao Liang Jiang handed over a slip to his younger brother, saying that he had calculated the exact number of the number of the number of the lawyers, and according to this calculation, there was basically no error. Brother Jujun knows that the younger brother is a human being, and as long as it involves arithmetic problems, the younger brother will calculate it himself. Therefore, it took the younger brother half a month to repeatedly verify General Zhenbei's figures, and as he said, there was basically no error. Brother, the problem of the Broken Dragon Stone is solved! ”

"What's the exact number?" Wang Mang asked eagerly, his voice trembling a little.

"Three feet, one inch and four minutes." Liu Xin stood up and handed the slip to Wang Mang.

Wang Mang looked at the slip in his hand and couldn't help muttering, "Sir, are you really an unborn genius?" ”

Liu Xin saw that Wang Mang didn't reply, so he asked again: "Brother, there are really many mysteries on Du Wu, the general of Zhenbei." Not to mention anything else, the exact value of the Rikka is a miracle. Although the younger brother is not an extremely smart person, there are very few people in the dynasty who surpass the younger brother. Even so, the younger brother did not write the "Zhong Almanac" and "Santong Almanac" until the year before last, and on the day of the book, the younger brother was fifty and three, and he had passed the year of the Mandate of Heaven. But how can this Mr. Du have such an achievement before he is yet a year old, this is really incredible! ”

Wang Mang nodded.

Liu Xin is right, when the "Santong Almanac" was written, Liu Xin had been in Xihe's position for five years, and he had the richest collection of books and the most advanced astronomical observation methods in the entire Han Kingdom, in addition to dozens of the most intelligent astronomers in the empire for him to drive, even so, it took five years to compile the "Santong Almanac". As for Lu Jialiang, he started to study on the basis of how many predecessors, and even the old Situ Kongguang personally went into battle to help Liu Xin calculate, but it only verified that "Monday Path Three" is no longer accurate. The two smartest and most knowledgeable people in the Han Empire failed to calculate the specific value, and Du Wu, who was not yet thirty years old, suddenly hit the nail on the head, how could this not make people suspicious?

Thinking of this, Wang Mang sighed: "Don't hide it from the virtuous brother, the foolish brother also thinks that General Zhenbei's life experience is a mystery." Seven years ago, when he first came to the mansion, Brother Yu once sent an embroidered messenger to Yanzhou to investigate him thoroughly, and found that this person had nowhere to come from and nowhere to go, as if he appeared out of thin air. Fortunately, Mr. Du is low-key, and erudite, and he casually accepted a disciple Galangal, and he has already faintly shown signs of great success in Taoism, which can be described as a genius. Some time ago, I received a pagan from Tianzhu, before the virtuous brother came, the foolish brother just received a letter from the infidels, saying that the general of Zhenbei had exterminated the rogue who had been entrenched in Liangzhou for several years, and said that he wanted to find the white camel of the mythical beast and give it to the foolish brother as a gift. ”

"White camels? Is there a white camel in this world? Liu Xin was a little surprised.

"Brother Fool has never heard of it, but compared to the strangeness of Mr. Du, this white camel is not unusual. Brother Xian, who do you say this Mr. Du is? ”

"The elder brother can't know with all his manpower, and the younger brother doesn't know it. I think, it doesn't matter where he comes from, as long as he has good intentions towards us, we accept him. What's more, now that he has helped us a lot, can my brother let the embroidered messenger stop spying on him? ”

"Well," Wang Mang nodded and said, "Before Brother Xian came, Brother Yu had already ordered the removal of the surveillance of the Changshi Mansion, and when Mr. Du came back, Brother Xian would also get closer to him, this person is talented, and it will be beneficial to you and me." ”

Liu Xin picked up the tea and gestured: "Everything listens to my brother." ”

Changshi House.

Cai Bo opened a crack in the door and poked his head out to look at the post guard in front of him: "The Changshi Mansion is closed to thank guests, who is the honorable driver?" ”

The post guard took out a bundle of books with a mud seal: "Is this the mansion of General Zhenbei?" ”

Cai Bo nodded repeatedly.

The postman handed over the book: "General Zhenbei's family letter, and, press a handprint here, so I can go back and hand it over." ”

Cai Bo nodded hurriedly, pressed his handprint, thanked the guard, and ran into the yard with a bamboo hand: "Shaojun!" Shaojun! The gentleman has come to write a letter! ”

Pipa, who was in the west courtyard, hurriedly rushed out when he heard this, and Xiaocha chased after him and shouted: "Madame, slow down!" ”

Pipa took the book, only glanced at the mud seal, and then hugged the booklet tightly in his arms, tears falling down his eyes. Cai Bo walked away with interest, and Xiaocha caught up, holding the pipa, and slowly walked back.

"Seeing the words is like meeting, showing the letter and feeling comfortable. After a long absence, Zhiyu is thinking about it.

Pipa my wife, a farewell and a half moon, my heart is always missing. I met you in my dream last night, and I saw that your tears were not dry. The old man said that crying in a dream is not beneficial to the body, so remember to take care. The husband has now arrived in Liangzhou, the scenery is different from the Central Plains, and he will take you to Dunhuang in the future. The fish scale armor sewn by my wife, I wear it day and night, and I protect my husband's body as if my wife's body temperature. The words are affectionate, and I hope my wife will take care of her health. After the tenth month, the husband returned from Angelica. Don't read it. ”

Pipa looked at the book, and big tears rolled down. She quietly rested her head on the book, felt the temperature of the font, turned her head and said to Xiaocha with a smile: "Mr. called me wife, and Mr. also said that he dreamed of me, and said that he would take me to Dunhuang." Xiaocha, look at it, look at it, Mr. said he misses me, I miss Mr. too, woo woo woo woo ......"

Xiaocha opened her illiterate eyes, hugged the pipa and sobbed: "Shaojun don't cry, Shaojun don't cry." How good Mr. is to you, you can't cry and break your body. ”

Hearing this, Pipa wiped his tears and nodded vigorously: "Hmm! I want to be good, I want to learn a few more dishes, and I want to give birth to a son for my husband, I want to serve my husband for the rest of my life, and you have to serve my husband for the rest of your life, do you hear? ”

Xiaocha nodded: "That's for sure, Xiaocha must treat Mr. and Shaojun well." Shaojun, let's go research new recipes, and when Mr. comes back, we will make him a lot of delicious food! ”

"Okay! Hee-hee~" The two girls were happy again, and the laughter like silver bells filled the entire Changshi Mansion. Cai Bo listened sideways for a while, and sighed: Shaojun, Shaojun, you are just a concubine, how can you become a wife?
