12. Chapter 12
A few years before the name of the year was still used "Xiping", the imperial decree of the court and the central government ordered the establishment of the Shizhong Temple, which was the office specially approved by the current son to the servant officials, and the great Confucian Lu Zhi, the famous scholar Zhang Xun and Yang Biao were successively called to serve in the middle of the service.
According to the old system of Emperor Xiaowu Liu Che, the officials in the middle were originally the noble officials who selected the famous scholars and Confucians to serve the palace as advisors to the emperor. However, after setting up the Shizhong Temple, I don't know why today's son suddenly had a whim, and the Shizhong, who has always given people the impression of a noble word forest official, sent an additional "provincial Shangshushi" Shangshutai supervision task.
Several nobles in the Shizhong Temple are either great Confucians whose disciples are all over the world, or famous scholars and scholars who have revised scriptures and writings, and talked about why Confucius ran away when he wrote "Spring and Autumn", maybe there was a spiritual anointment to talk about three days and three nights without food or sleep, and supervision has long become a scholar's platform for rubber stamps in the hands of the forbidden mink?
The core institution of the Shizhong Temple is the Shizhong Lu, which is located in the South Palace of the Forbidden Middle School like the Shangshutai, except for a few bigwigs of the Shizhong Temple, only the real official Shizhong Temple Peng can enter and exit without hindrance. As for Wei Ye, who nominally led the waist card of the scribe of Shizhong Temple, the distance between Wei Ye, who was not doing his business everywhere, and Shizhonglu was probably as far as the distance between dog meat and high-class noodles. Bypassing the palace wall that seemed to be out of reach, Wei Ye, who knew almost everything about this not-so-large famous city, dragged his steps towards the Han Dynasty capital version of the organ compound to the east.
Since Emperor Guangwu set the capital of Luoyang, the layout of the entire Luoyang, Tai and half have been planned according to the old system of "Zhou Li", one street, one city and one square, all of which can find a source in "Zhou Li". Therefore, close to the forbidden north palace and the south palace of Buguangli, has always been the place where the noble family lived, and it is separated by Taicang in the north of Shangshangli, it has always been the first choice of civil officials to live in auspicious places, the Son of Heaven to the minister to give the house, but also love to pick here to start. In comparison, Yong'an, which is a little more remote, has a hermit temperament in the middle of the noise.
It is not far from Luoyang City in the south of the city and the horse market in the east of the city, and it does not feel inconvenient to live here, but it is not like the Gaomen clan in Buguangli who not only enjoys the prosperity of Luoyang City, but also absorbs the hustle and bustle of Luoyang City. Although it was not as light as Buguangli was in the center of the horse market, the Yang Canal dug during the Jianwu period happened to flow next to Yong'anli, and you can enjoy the scenery of the nine curves of the river without going out when you live here. Therefore, many noble officials who had lost their power sued the old ministers, while reciting the master's words "the wise man enjoys water", while buying a house to settle down. As for whether the noble officials value the water, wood, Qinghua, and birds and birds in this place, and want to set up bird nets at the door where few people visit, and catch some flat-haired animals to subsidize the increasingly stretched family, the old minister feels that he has not saved enough money to return to his hometown to buy a mountain in his life, so he simply stays in Beijing and waits for the Holy Son of Heaven to take the wrong medicine one day and issue an edict to conquer again, so as to avoid the pain of the edict envoy leaving Beijing to travel, then it is not possible to treat Wei Ye, an outsider among the outsiders.
Thinking of these things, Wei Ye, who was still dressed as a scribe in a green shirt, knocked on the side door of a mansion, and followed the old servant who led the way into a small and spacious courtyard.
According to the status of the master's family, of course, he can't afford to be promoted to the main hall to receive a white body without merit, and according to the temper of the master's family, Wei Ye can't be like some beautiful guys who are born like mothers, take out some gold, silver, jade, pearls, flowers and other door bags from their sleeves, and hand them over with "no fireworks". This is nothing more than the common temperament of the master's family and the little scribe, which is said to be poor and sour.
Don't be stupid, not the protagonist of every story is the private child of the emperor and even the gods and Buddhas with a background to the sky, and there are rich merchants, big eunuchs, and cheap fathers who are in a hurry to give people silver flowers.
According to the number of etiquette, he removed the boots that had been opened, and Wei Ye, who was a supernumerary scribe of the Shizhong Temple at the time, carried his clothes and put them on the floor of the wooden house. This is where the master's family reads and learns words every day, and Wei Ye knows better that under this wooden house is the hole where the master's house collects books.
King Wen of Zhou deduced Zhou Yi in the cave, Sima Guang wrote "Zizhi Tongjian" in the cave, and Longwei Zhangren found the golden and jade character book left by Dayu in the cave of Dongting Mountain, it is said that when King Lu Gong demolished the old house of Confucius, he also found a hole to hide books under the wall, which seems to be a tradition for a long time. Thinking of these things that he didn't have, his fingers inadvertently swept over the old bamboo slips he was carrying in his arms, Wei Ye still barely walked to the table respectfully, and bowed:
"Teacher, I'm back. ”
The old man who was holding a bamboo slip in one hand and only relying on his wrist strength to carry a pen in the air with one hand turned his head slightly, looked at the green-shirted scribe who was not as polite as the etiquette, and said angrily: "Wei Sanlang, the old man is not your teacher, and you are not a student who worships the old man. ”
Almost burst out of his throat, "Okay, teacher, no problem, teacher", Wei Ye coughed in time and bowed his head to signal: "Although Ming Gong does not say anything, he has already taught by example, and Ye is strictly obeyed." ”
The old man didn't bother to care about the mistakes of this kid in front of the case, and when he lowered his head, he only left his white sideburns to Wei Ye to see, and asked a headless question in his mouth:
"Has the mountain disaster been clarified?"
"It's clear, as "Bai Zetu" said, the hundred-year-old wolf demon devours the ghost qi of the ancient tomb, and the tomb ghost wolf demon lives together, so he can psychic changes and make trouble. Well, but it's almost dead now. ”
"The teacher is asking me how I know, because in the end, it's the students who make up the knives. ”
You don't need to look at it to know that it should be the seemingly humble but proud face of the green-shirted scribe under him, the old man put down the rabbit in his hand noncommittally, and asked: "Yi Meng Qishu" discusses disasters, among which there are clouds'Walking horses and embroidering texts, dogs and wolves eating Ding food, and six animals talking about human words', this is exactly what you see about the wolf demonizing the woman, the sympathy between heaven and man, why is this lord a sign of virtue?"
"The ornament of the embroiderer, the taste of the gentleman of the five-flavor tuner, and the morality and righteousness of the person who speaks. Horse walkers, serving the battle of chariots, this is also a good person. The dog wolf, chasing the beast of hunting, this is also a cool official. The six animals, the morning vigil, ploughing the fields and producing milk, the people of this phase are also the four people. Honestly reciting the divination in "Yi Wei", Wei Ye peeked at the old man who was sitting in danger, and finally added, "The teacher is famous for his kindness and ease, and when today's son is even more recruited for this reason, this little problem will not be difficult for you, let's just talk about it." This is the master, the king is close to the villain, the virtuous minister, the eunuch is in charge, the prisons are stacked, and there are only two people between the urns. ”
The old man sighed lightly, but still asked, "What are you talking about, who is missing?"
"There is a lack of Chen Sheng, and a lack of Wu Guang. Speaking of which, the fish belly Tibetan Dan books and silk texts, learning the fox to speak human words, are all small profits and big business, the imperial court has owed the students half a month's worth of rice, forced by the livelihood, I can't say that the students will have to take the risk of doing a vote one day, maybe there is also an embroidered boy singing nursery rhymes. ”
Although it is said that the essence of Mars often changes into an embroidered boy, singing nursery rhymes in the world, predicting the rise and fall of dynasties. However, there are many people who have a heart to manipulate the government and the opposition to discuss it, but this kind of thing is not something that a white-clothed scholar like Wei Sanlang can touch. ”
Wei Ye shrugged his shoulders indifferently, glanced at the direction of the northwest palace city, and said half-mockingly and half-seriously: "Today's saint, when he was not enthroned as the marquis of the Liberation-Pavilion, he was only afraid that he would be afraid of his life. Therefore, after the Empress Dowager Dou and General Dou Wu ascended the throne, our majesty could not tolerate General Dou who had the merit of supporting the throne, for fear that the incident of Yihuo and Liang Ji would happen again, so he simply let the eunuchs and the Dou clan fight for power, and wiped out the whole family of General Dou and Chen Taifu. Since His Majesty has once again provoked the prison of the party by the eunuchs of the inner palace, not only has the Chinese officials been purged, but even Li Ying, Du Mi, and Fan Fan, who have survived the first party rebellion, have not been spared. The teacher was ordered to enter the office, served as the Son of Heaven, and had the right to supervise Shang Shutai, so how many times has he been able to dismiss the opinions of Shang Shutai's gang of eunuchs?"
Although Wei Ye said fiercely, the old servant is a simple one-handed entry into the office, and no matter how hardcore there is no hardcore, the imperial party faction just shook his head when he heard these slanderous words:
"Your Majesty's edict advises the doctor Ma Riyan and Cai Yong to examine and approve the Five Classics, and engrave the stone Taixue, so that the students of the world can participate in the examination with a basis. In this way, the examiner can no longer rely on his own clothes and chisels to teach and accept privately, and the officials of the Lantai Library can no longer delete and modify the classics to seek money by fraud. His Majesty also set up the Hongdu Gate School, so that the scribes of the Quartet studied art and poetry here, and with this good governance, the scholars could not return to their hearts. ”
Hearing this, Wei Ye had no choice but to smile: "Teacher, a few years ago, how did Cui Lie, the court captain, climb to the position of Situ, one of the three dukes?
This time, it was the turn of the old servant to have nothing to say, maybe it was really the same as what his subordinate Wei scribe said, when today's son and the Empress Dowager Dong had too many hard days when they were in the Hejian clan, and since they ascended the throne, they have focused on collecting money. Luoyang West Garden has the Son of Heaven's new private treasury, which is in the hands of the Central Imperial Palace, which should be a small royal treasury dedicated to the inner palace, but as a result, not only the inner palace treasury originally controlled by the Shaofu was returned to the private treasury of the West Garden, but even the tribute accumulation in the court and the central government in charge of the great Si Nong was also regarded as private money by the current emperor and returned to his own use. As for the new income-generating policy of setting up a list of selling officials in Hongdumen, where there are three princes and nine kings, the price is one million, the county guards the county order, and the rich and poor in the residence are calculated separately, and only the current son of heaven Liu Hong can play it. As for the famous Jizhou scholar Cui Lie, since he spent five million to buy the official position of Situ, one of the three dukes, which made His Majesty feel distressed and slaughtered five million yuan, he also won the nickname of "Copper Stinky Three Princes" in the government and the opposition, so that his son Huben Zhonglang couldn't hold Cui Jun up for a long time.
Just two years ago, Bi Gui Yuan and Lingkun Yuan were built in the south of the city, counting the West Garden, Xianyang Garden, Pingyang Garden, Shanglin Garden, and Hongde Garden, which are where the Son of Heaven lives, this achievement is enough to surpass all the predecessors since Emperor Gaozu.
If it was a prosperous emperor like Emperor Xiaowu Liu Che, it would not hurt to repair the garden. However, since His Majesty ascended the throne, locust plagues, droughts, and floods have not come repeatedly, and the Queen Mother and the Emperor have also focused all their energy on repairing gardens and saving silver at such times, which is more like the model of a faint monarch who has died in the country.
Thinking of what he had seen and heard in Beijing over the years, the old waiter lost his temper. raised his eyes and looked at himself, a scribe who was not very useful, and sighed: "Seeing that things are clear, you should have the ambition to clarify the world, study the small techniques of the party, and chase the small profits, is it what the husband should do?"
"Don't, teacher. Chen Fan and Mrs. Chen have the ambition to clarify the world, but he has been beheaded all over the house, and this branch of the student clan is not prosperous in the first place, and it is really not enough for His Majesty and the eunuchs to dominate. The student knows a guy surnamed Zhao, who has a large family population and can fight and carry milk, so maybe he is more interested in the great cause of 'clarifying the world and supporting the Han family'. ”
Without any pressure, throwing out the acquaintances of the Big Gun Mansion as targets, Wei Ye spread his hands and smiled like a scoundrel, "Spring is here, and it is also the time for the wind to rise." When the wind is urgent, the sky is full of dust, and when the wind is slow, the dust falls into the sky, but whether the wind is fast or slow, whether it is sand or clear, it has nothing to do with personal thoughts. Just like the teacher, you can't hold back a trace of wind when you stretch out your hand. ”
As for who the uncontrollable Fengwei is, a lazy guy is embarrassed to say it.
As if he didn't hear the slightest metaphor of some unreliable and bastard lazy subordinate, the old man put down his pen and threw a large scroll of bamboo slips that he had just copied in his hand towards Wei Ye: "Since you are back, I will do some work in the scribe's division and take this volume of documents to organize and file." ”
