Chapter 66: It's Time to Clean Up Him!
If there is no major event, the Jingyang bell will not ring.
When the officials of Daqi ascended the Ming Hall, they found that the two saints were already waiting under His Majesty Dan today.
Why do you look sad and angry?
Baiguan looked at his colleagues on the left and right suspiciously, who died and made the second saint so sad?
"Ministers, see the Emperor, Your Majesty!"
Since it was not a serious meeting, everyone did not pay a full salute.
After waiting for a while, they didn't see the emperor ask them to get up, so the emperor spoke.
"Excuse me, flat body..."
“… Thank you, Your Majesty! ”
Many people took advantage of the chaos of the train to take a look at the emperor. Only then did he find that his eyes were red and swollen, his hair was messy, and he exuded a dejected aura all over his body.
The emperor did not give in much, but he did not have a sense of decadence.
Mingtang was quiet, and the civil and military classes stood there quietly, waiting for the emperor to speak.
The emperor still didn't react, and the emperor could only be the first to speak.
"Just now... There is news from Huai'an, Xu Guogong, it's gone..."
The court was immediately filled with shock, and many old ministers fell to the ground, their faces full of disbelief, and some even lay on the ground and cried...
The ancestor of Daqi, the last founding noble, is gone!
"Old lady Liu..."Jia Hui was also very shocked, although he had only seen the old lady once, but after listening to Jia Yu tell him about the old lady's deeds, Jia Hui also admired this old ancestor.
But when I heard such a name again, I didn't expect it to be yin and yang.
"Silence!" Seeing that the emperor still had something to say, the hundred officials were still crying and grieving, and the standing class Yushi came out to be this wicked person.
The hundred officials, who were interrupted by the standing class Yushi, woke up like a dream and rearranged their ranks, but from time to time there were still cries coming from the two classes.
"Zhuqing, according to the old lady's wishes, all the funerals are simple, just run them in Huai'an, the old lady doesn't want to accompany the burial of Taizu, wants to be buried in Huai'an, continue to look at the canal and the workers..."
As he spoke, the emperor choked up a little.
Seeing this, Xia Shouzhong hurriedly handed over a hot and wet towel.
The Emperor wiped his face, and then he felt better, and continued.
"Next, the great uncle will discuss the old lady's name as soon as possible, as soon as everything is done, Huai'an has already been prepared, and all departments will send people to go...
Okay, let's get ready. ”
。。。。。。
Rongguo Mansion.
The men of the Jia family and the Shi family went straight here after getting off the court to discuss matters.
After informing everyone of the news of Old Lady Liu's death, Rongguofu also fell into a state of sadness.
In Rongxi Hall, the men sat silently on both sides.
"So, who are you going to send with me?"
Jia Hui spoke.
"With you? Why was the Governor's Mansion decided so early? Shi Nai's face was surprised.
"Among the five current governors, two are too old, afraid that they will be sent out in the middle of the road, and the Duke of Xingguo is paralyzed on the bed and cannot move, and the Duke of Dingguo has gone to inspect the southwest, except for the five of us, the rest are not enough in the old lady's identity, and they can't represent the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.
It's just me when I think about it. ”
"In that case, then let your two cousins come along!" As the elder brother Shi Nai, Shi Ding acquiesced, but there was no way, the marquis was too troublesome to leave.
Although Jia Hui's title is higher than theirs, he can still go on behalf of the Governor's Mansion, in contrast, they are only the commanders of the two regiments and battalions in the Beijing camp, and it is much more difficult to ask for leave.
"Then my Jia family is the same as the two cousins, each family has sent their sons-in-law to go with them, Brother Rong in Dongfu, Brother Lian in my big house and Brother Zhu in the second room."
After saying to the two cousins of the Shi family, Jia Yu turned his head to look at Jia's mother, Jia's mother nodded, and the matter was settled.
"In that case, Brother Hui'er, you can call someone to call Brother Zhu and Brother Lian back."
"Yes, tomorrow morning, the child will send someone to pick them up, heh, it's cheaper for the two of them..."
"Ah, what's cheap and not cheap? Could it be that Brother Zhu was also sent to Beijing for training? ”
Shi Ding looked surprised, the Jia family was reformed, and he had also heard a little, only knowing that the eldest cousin sent Lian'er there, but he didn't want to practice the second room Zhu'er sent it over.
"I remember, isn't Brother Zhu already a lifter? Why did you send it too? Shi Nai also asked.
"Oh, two cousins, that's the case, last year Enke, Brother Zhu almost didn't survive, and some time ago he was seriously ill, so we decided to send Brother Zhu to practice and polish his body together."
"I see..."The Shi brothers glanced at each other and relaxed their hearts.
It turned out that I didn't give up the imperial examination, but went to exercise, then it would be fine.
Although Shi Ding has worked hard for the Shi family to create a marquis in recent years, it is different from the Jia family, they were originally civil officials but they took the road of martial arts by chance, and they really want the family to re-turn the text.
Therefore, their attention to the imperial examination is far beyond that of the Jia family.
Although Jia's mother is the daughter of the Shi family, when she was born, the Shi family was a noble general, and when she grew up, she married into the Jia family, a top general in Daqi, and stayed for decades, and it didn't matter if she was exposed to the imperial examination.
For Jia's mother, it is a good thing to be admitted, but it is not a big deal not to be admitted, the Jia family has a big business, it is great to make some money, just take some connections to operate an official, there is no need to knock the imperial examination.
Knighthood is the last word.
"Then decide so first, the matter is more urgent, the two cousins will pack their luggage tonight, and let the two cousins live in the house tomorrow, and it will be convenient to set off together at that time."
"Cheng, I'll send the two of them tomorrow!" Shi Nai patted his chest and agreed.
。。。。。。
After seeing off the two cousins of the Shi family, Jia Hui also said goodbye to his father and second uncle and walked back to Xifu.
The maids at home have already prepared bath water.
Filled with smoke, Jia Hui lay in the marble-paved bath, enjoying the tranquility of her own.
Since there was a bath at home, Li Kun and the others would not come in and disturb him alone unless Jia Hui specially called him.
For some reason, he was a little distracted.
Yesterday, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies received a list of losses from the Jiangnan Battalion, which was nothing, but when he saw that the reason for the damage was to assist in patrolling the salt and imperial Shi Linhai, but it was attacked, Jia Hui realized that there was something wrong with the Jiangnan Battalion.
Although according to the rules of Daqi, Jiangnan Daying is already a person who is faithful to the king, but the separation of officials and businessmen, even under the command of the same person, is still an insurmountable bottom line.
Even Jia Hui, who is already very arrogant and domineering, is too.
Although he is already the actual leader of the Northwest Party, he has never given convenience to the caravan under his command, even if the shopkeeper of his caravan is Yue Liduo's own brother, the taxes he should pay are still a lot, and he never uses the skin of the Northwest Army to swagger through the market. Of course, no one will embarrass him.
It is very different from the previous dynasty.
In Daqi, as long as you abide by the rules set by Taizu Taizong and pay taxes on time, you can live a good life, as long as you don't rebel, you can do whatever you like.
But the salt merchants under the command of Zhongxin have blatantly colluded with the Jiangnan battalion, wanting to get rid of his uncle, and patrol the salt royal history like a sea!
Such an obvious collusion between officials and businessmen, if it really hurts Lin Hai, it is a rebellion.
Therefore, he published a book this morning on the "Rectification of the Defense of the Jiangnan Battalion", saying that the Jiangnan Battalion has not been in war for more than ten years, and it has reached the point where all the soldiers are lost when they encounter small thieves.
How could the Secretary of General Administration put the Metropolitan Governor's recital behind the diary-like memorabilia of an ordinary official? It must be sent to the Imperial Court urgently!
Presumably, there will be results tomorrow, right?
Boom!
The sound of a bamboo tube knocking pulled Jia Hui's thoughts back to his body, and he looked up at the small basin on the side.
This is Jia Hui looking for someone to do, one of the characteristic decorations of the Japanese garden - startling deer.
From Jia Hui entering the bath, he poured water into a wooden bucket above the bamboo tube. After pouring a bucket, open the plug of the drain, the water will flow into the bamboo tube, and when the water is full to a certain extent, the wooden tube will fall down and hit the edge of the marble basin, making a crisp sound,
Boom.
The water in the tube will flow into the marble basin, and the bamboo tube will be hit at the bottom by the water flowing from the wooden barrel, and the bamboo tube will be lifted up in this way, and the water will be picked up again, and the cycle will start again.
When the water in the barrel is exhausted, the barrel and the bamboo tube will bounce back at the same time, making a louder noise. This means that it is time to soak in the bath.
Soon, a few maids came in the bathroom, Jia Hui stood up, stood on the towel that the maid had newly placed on the ground, and let them wipe the water off their bodies with cotton towels, and the maids put on a pair of bloomers for Jia Hui.
The maids in the back brought three plates with clothes.
An orange-red gown, a navy blue cotton and linen robe, and a linen short-swing round neck.
During this time, I tried not to wear bright colors, and I didn't want to wear a robe, Jia Hui reached out and clicked on the round neck, and the maids immediately put the round neck on Jia Hui, and then tied the belt with the same fabric as the bloomers.
After stopping the maid from combing her hair, Jia Hui wore her hair loose and stepped on the clogs and walked out of the bathroom.
He didn't enter the house immediately, but sat under the peach tree in the backyard with his lute.
The crooked moon hung in the sky, sitting on the stone pier under the tree, Jia Hui looked up at the sky.
Drinking this year's new Longjing, the crescent moon has already begun to turn west, Jia Hui suddenly thought of something, put the pipa on the table in front of him, and put it on his lap.
Li Kun happened to come over with a bowl of rock sugar white fungus lotus seed soup with ice water from the well, and when he saw that his master was interested in playing a song, he hurriedly put the lunch box in his hand on the beauty in the corridor, and sat on it himself, leaning over and supporting his face, looking at the man.
He began to caress the strings with a very slow and light loose board, as if on the vast sea, the waves were rolling, the speed of plucking the strings was getting faster and faster, and even the sound was getting stronger and stronger, the waves were crashing on the shore, and the long wheel fingers were plucking the strings.
In the quiet east of the sea, as if something was about to come out, sure enough, a round of bright silver platters jumped out of the sea and slowly rose.
Ah, the moon is out!
The people on the shore looked over, admired, missed, cared about, sighed... Pleasant, relaxed, and contented.
At this time, the moon hesitated in front of the high mountain, swinging with the sound of the piano, rising and falling slightly.
How does this work? The plucking of the strings suddenly became urgent, and the passion rushed, as if it had been pushed, and the moon crossed the top of the mountain and shone on the silent earth...
The overlapping pavilions and pavilions, the majestic and exquisite palaces in the Moon Palace, really seemed to appear in front of Li Kun's eyes, staring at the beloved who looked up at the moon and plucked the strings, Li Kun couldn't help but be stupid...
The jade rabbit sank in the west, the moon set in the west, Jia Hui stopped his right hand that had been fingering, and finally plucked the strings, waking up the beauty on top of the beauty.
Hearing the panting sound behind him, Jia Hui knew who was coming.
"Beauty, come, sit down."
Lifting the food box and walking over, Li Kun also sat on the stone pier, opened the food box, scooped out two bowls of white fungus soup with a bamboo spoon, and saw Jia Hui drink the white fungus soup in the bowl as soon as he raised his head, licking his lips as if he was reminiscing about the taste.
Li Kun smiled lightly, picked up the bowl, and drank his white fungus soup in small sips.
"Madame's craftsmanship is getting better and better," Jia Hui sighed.
From the beginning, it was either sweet and throaty, or the white fungus was not cooked to make it tummy, until now, it can be used as a signature in the top ten restaurants.
You do it, I drink it, it's been more than ten years...
The person on the other side has also changed from a snotty crybaby to a cold beauty, and he married himself half a month ago.
"What do you think I'm doing?"
Li Kun on the other side glanced at himself, and drank the last bit of the bowl as soon as he raised his head.
Wiping his mouth with a handkerchief, Li Kun raised his head and looked at Jia Hui.
"What was it called? Feel like it's a good fit for dance music? ”
"Let's call her..."Yue'er Gao", this is a few dilapidated music scores I found from an antique stall in Chang'an, and it was very good to play it, so I took it and recomposed it."
You can't say that this is what you learned in your last life, right?
Anyway, there is no "Neon Clothes and Feather Song" in this teaching workshop, so don't you let yourself say it?
"My master is talented, but do you have a music score? Let the concubine also practice, and let my sisters who are handkerchiefs open their eyes another day! ”
Li Kun's eyes lit up instantly.
"Good, good, no problem! Come on, go get pen and paper! ”
After a while, a piece of paper and pens of various styles were placed on the stone table, and Jia Hui held the pen and slowly wrote on the paper.
"I'm going to Gangnam."
"Gangnam? Why are you going to Gangnam again all of a sudden? ”
"Alas, on the one hand, Xu Guogong is gone, and all families have to send their children to mourn, and I will also go over as a representative of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies."
"Xu Guogong?"
"Yes, Xu Guogong, I was stunned for a moment when I heard this title for the first time, Xu Guogong Liu Lao Taigong has followed Taizu when he was still in the Cao Gang, and was later forced to stay in the south, when Taizu integrated the Cao Gang, the old lady also made a lot of efforts, and when he was founded the country, he was named the founding Huai Anbo, and Taizong entered Xu Guogong."
"Huai Anbo? The concubine body remembered! It's a pity that the last founding hero is also gone..."
The couple fell silent.
Jia Hui took another bowl of white fungus soup and drank it in small sips.
The atmosphere was a little dull, and Jia Hui changed the topic.
"The second reason, there is something wrong with the Jiangnan camp, if nothing else, the second saint will also send me over to suppress and cleanse, right?"
“… Are you going to kill again..."
Li Kun was very worried.
Gan, I said something I shouldn't have said again!
"It's okay, it's okay, this time I took three thousand households to go, the food and accommodation are all my own, even if something happens, I can kill it, after all, the north of Jinling is Huai'an."
"What about the camp in Jiangbei? Isn't Uncle Lin from Yangzhou? Can't you run to Yangzhou? ”
"Haha, silly girl, the Jiangbei camp has long been abolished!"
made a joke, Li Kun blushed and lowered his head.
"However, most of the elites of the Jiangbei camp have entered the Cao soldiers, and Madame is not wrong, going to Huai'an is equivalent to going to the Jiangbei camp."
"Hmm..."
Li Kun's face was a little better.
"It's not too early, come, drink a few more bowls, go to bed after drinking, and sleep separately!"
。。。。。。
Next.
Although because of the death of the old lady, the second saint stopped the court for seven days, and any matter related to the army was not a trivial matter, Jia Hui was also summoned to Xiyuan.
Yes, Luoyang also has a West Garden, officially known as Xianren Palace, which is part of the Forbidden Garden in the west of Luoyang City.
The Emperor still lived here.
Yeonko-in.
"I also read the embroidered clothes last night, it's true, heh, the old fourteen is too disagreeable, it's really his Jiangnan camp!"
The folding fan was slammed to the ground by the angry emperor, flicked a few times, and slid to Jia Hui's feet.
Jia Hui bent down to pick up the folding fan, patted it for some big dust, and handed it to the emperor again.
"Take it, take it! Lao Tzu is angry when he sees this fan! ”
The Emperor turned his head to the other side and resolutely refused to take the fan.
"Good fan, how..."
"What a fart! This is the old fourteenth dog... That bastard to Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu only feels disgusting now! ”
The emperor turned his head and glared at Jia Hui again.
“… Thank you to the Emperor for your reward..."
Jia Hui pinned the folding fan to his belt.
"Alas... Jinyu, clean up the Jiangnan camp, and let the whole family of the salt merchants walk a little neater.
It's also time to give the old fourteen a long memory, if it goes on like this, it's really lawless! ”
The emperor naturally knew that this was the righteous king Chen Jingyuan and Jia Hui who were attacking Zhongxin.
But he didn't dislike this, but felt that Chen Si's behavior was the beginning of the little wolf's challenge to the old wolf king.
Only after defeating all the wolf cubs will the winning wolf cub be eligible to face the old wolf king.
It's that the level of this generation of old wolf kings is a bit inferior.
So, let's let them finish the fight as soon as possible while they are alive.
However, the most important thing is that the little red guy who is faithful dares to touch the ancestral training of military and commercial isolation in Daqi except for the merchant and the small merchant who accompanied the army.
Lack of cleanup!
