Chapter 408 Too old to scum.
This sentence is actually a very common folk slang.
If A Nian hadn't been influenced by Mrs.
He since childhood, he might not have known this sentence.
This folk slang has a characteristic, that is, it is vivid and straightforward.
Sometimes, being straightforward is a kind of cruelty.
Taoist Master Chaoyun, a has-been powerful man, is obviously not very down-to-earth.
He has never heard this sentence before, and then, he vividly and bluntly shocked the female disciple.
Although the female disciple is not talking about him, he is slightly older than Prince Consort Xie, okay?
Taoist priest Chaoyun was so shocked that he didn't want to speak anymore.
The female disciple was always lively, and now that she is a mother, she is also a passionate person.
He Zijin was at home these days.
In addition to pretending to take care of the "patient" A Nian, He Zijin also took the time to make a robe for his master, Taoist Chao Yun.
This time he brought it over and showed off his craftsmanship.
He also said, "Master, give it a try."
Try it, this time it’s a dark-grained bamboo jade color.
Let’s see if I can match it with the dark edging.
It’s both lively and stable, and it’s most suitable for you, master, at your age.”
Master Chaoyun had just been hit by the word "old to the point of scum", and when he heard the word "age" mentioned by a female disciple, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.
He waved his hands half-heartedly, "That's all, at my age, I can't wear anything. .
This material is a bit too loose.”
"How can you be so arrogant?
Master, you are not very old, and it is so rare to be gentle and elegant like you.
I have seen so many men, but none of them can compare to you, master."
He Zijin said I took out the clothes and showed them to the master.
I highly recommend them. , "Look at the color, the workmanship, and the clothes.
Only you, master, can wear them.
The second person can't afford the color.
Besides, I have worked hard for more than half a month, lighting a lamp and boiling oil to make it, master."
If you don’t even give it a try, it’s really disrespectful.”
He Zijin didn't know that his master had hurt Ah Nian with a word and was praising her for her clothes.
But as soon as she finished speaking, her master said, "Okay, let's try it.
But, I got on."
Given my age, you should make me some stable clothes to wear in the future.”
"What's wrong with your age?
You don't look old."
He Zijin gave the clothes to Senior Brother Wen Dao and flattered the master with a smile.
"The key is to have good charm.
If I reach the master's age and have your charm, master, I will Beautiful to death.”
Master Chaoyun finally made his female disciple feel comfortable.
After trying on the clothes, he made some comments, "Don't wear a collared collar in the future.
A round collar is also good."
"The master who leads me is well-dressed," He Zijin said.
"No, I'm a few years older than Prince Consort Xie."
"Even if the prince-in-law is better than you, I can't compare with you."

He Zijin has no interest at all in thanking the prince-in-law, He Zijin said with a smile, "When has there ever been someone more outstanding than you, master?"
You have to ask Senior Brother Wen Dao to tell me, and I will come over to open my eyes."
Master Chaoyun finally had fun with his female disciple and said with a smile, "Don't say these things all day long.
Girls should be more stable."
"I know, I know."
He Zijin came over to see his master, chat with him, and tease the twins.
I have been spending most of the day in Master Chaoyun's manor.
Not counting lunch, I took the twins to leave in the afternoon.
This Beichang Mansion case was tried very slowly, and there were no mediocre people who followed Prince Consort Xie.
However, after the trial of the case was over, it became clear that those who should be arrested were arrested and those who should be tied were tied up.
Xie Prince Consort ordered the officials from the punishment, household and official departments who came with him to take the guilty officials back to the imperial capital with evidence of the crime.
Then he took some other officials from Honglu Temple and went to Xiliang for a secret visit via Beijingguan.
Yes, a secret trip.
Ah Nian didn't know about this secret visit at first, but Prince Consort Xie seemed to treat Jiang Tongzhi very differently.
Among the local officials in Beichang Prefecture, Prince Consort Xie only ordered Li Shenzheng and Jiang Tongzhi to accompany him.
It's easy to understand why Li Shenzheng was appointed to the government.
Many people in the officialdom have rumors that next year will be the promotion evaluation day for officials with a three-year term, and Li Shenzheng is afraid that he will be relieved of the post of Tian Governor.
As for Jiang Tongzhi, in this case of the Salt Department, Jiang Tongzhi presented the salt merchant's private accounts as evidence, which was also a contribution to the court.
However, Jiang Tongzhi is only in the sixth rank now.
No matter how he is promoted, he must follow the rules of the officialdom.
Therefore, Push yourself to death and get promoted to level five.
The fifth rank is naturally a higher-ranking official than the sixth rank, but for people in the officialdom, no matter the fifth rank or the sixth rank, there is an adjective that cannot escape, that is, "not in the mainstream" Yes, in the common sense of official circles, the fifth and sixth grades can only be regarded as ordinary official positions, and they are far from being called high officials.
However, Jiang Xiaoguan'er, who could not be called a high-ranking official, was actually named by Xie's consort, and went to Xiliang together with Xie's consort.
Consort Xie also asked everyone to keep this matter a secret.
He could not sue his parents, nor could he sue his wife and children.
But Ah Nian couldn't bear it.
He wanted to ask Prince Consort Xie if he could take his wife with him.
Of course, Ah Nian also understood that this was something that he couldn't ask.
But A Nian didn't hide it from Sister Zijin.
After hearing about it, Sister Zijin felt a little worried.
This sister Zijin, who had a legendary life in two lives, had no sense of the overall political situation at all.
She wondered whether A Nian would leave.
Xiliang joined forces with Zongheng and became a famous diplomat from then on.
In short, Sister Zijin had no such idea at all.
Her first thought was, "Is Xiliang safe?
I heard that the current king of that place is the current regent who squeezed out the previous king and established such a puppet king.
Is a place like this safe?”
Ah Nian said, "Is the elder sister talking about Prince Yingwu?"
"Yes."
He Zijin said, "I heard from sister Ying earlier that many bandits outside Beijingguan are actually related to Xiliang.
Besides, it's so good.
There are two shopping malls open.
What can't be done?
Speaking openly and honestly, why is it so secretive?
Isn’t it strange?”

"I understand what sister said.
Sister, look at me, it's natural."
After saying this, A Nian couldn't help but secretly feel proud.
After feeling satisfied, A Nian continued, "But having said that, among these people who are on missions, Who can compare with thanking the consort?
I heard Li Shenzheng say that when he was young, this consort once took charge of affairs against the Western Barbarians at Xining Pass.
Then, after thanking the consort in Xining In more than twenty years of service as an official, the Western Barbarians have not been able to take a step forward from our territory.
This meeting must be extremely important, so Your Majesty would send Consort Xie, if he is still the Empress Dowager’s biological uncle.
"Thank you, Prince Consort, how can I explain it to the Queen Mother?
So I said, even though I don't know much about this mission, I think it must be an important matter."
He Zijin also understood that for such an important matter, if he didn't have some luck, a middle- and low-ranking official like A Nian would not be able to squeeze in even if he broke his head.
He Zijin thought for a while and said, "Thank you, my consort, for personally sending an envoy.
What do you say about the guard?"
"In addition to the guards brought by Prince Consort Xie, General Ji will send guards to escort him personally."
He Zijin thought for a while, and quickly made a decision, and said to Anian, "Since I thank the consort for ordering you personally, this is also a thank you for the consort's kindness.
Just go and don't worry about home."
A-Nian took Sister Zijin's hand, gently twisted it in her palm, and said, "I just can't bear to leave my sister."
"It doesn't matter how long we have to go.
This kind of secret visit will be leaked if it takes too long.
Besides, you just can't bear to leave me and Ah Ye, Ah Xi and the twins."
As she said this, Sister Zijin looked at Ah Nian.
A Nian smiled, "How are the children the same as you and me?
The children are with us now, just like the little birds.
One day they will grow up and leave the nest.
Even in the future, they will get married, and then, Everyone has his or her own life.
It is not the children, but you and me who can truly grow old and live together for a hundred years."
Because A Nian was about to go on a mission, the couple became very intimate.
When He Zijin learned that the escort mission to Xiliang was led by Yao Jie himself, he couldn't help but feel relieved.
She and her husband are both familiar with Yao Jie, and they have acquaintances in the army.
Even if something happens, Yao Jie will definitely have to take care of A Nian first.
Ah Nian participated in the mission trip as a foreign missionary.
Not to mention that Ah Nian was still worried about his wife after joining the mission.
I don’t know how many people were envious of him and Li Shenzheng’s participation in the mission.
Including Jiang Shaoqing from Honglu Temple in the mission.
Jiang Shaoqing didn’t understand that they were not short of manpower. , Xie Prince Consort, why do you insist on adding Li Shenzheng and Jiang Tongzhi?
Just as Beichang Mansion has just investigated the salt class case, in such a bitter cold place, a salt class secretary can embezzle 100,000 silver a year.
Although Li Shenzheng and Jiang Tongzhi were the ones who presented the evidence, one can only imagine what kind of officialdom the Beichang Prefecture is like.
And to be able to present evidence quickly and accurately in such an officialdom and make great contributions, it is not easy for Li Jiang and others at first glance.
Such a confidential matter requires these two people to participate, especially since they have not conducted a detailed investigation on these two people.
If Prince Consort Xie hadn't insisted on it, Jiang Shaoqing would not have agreed to these two people joining the mission.
Even now, Jiang Shaoqing doesn't quite understand.
Of course, Jiang Shaoqing didn't quite understand this.
When he learned that Jiang Tongzhi Anian knew Xiliang dialect, he suddenly understood.
He wondered whether Prince Consort Xie was not satisfied with the current scribes who knew Xiliang dialect and wanted to find someone who knew Xiliang dialect.
If so, I looked for this Jiang Tongzhi.
Then, where is Li Shenzheng?

Soon, Jiang Shaoqing understood that he had really underestimated the officials of Beichang Mansion.
For example, Jiang Tongzhi is familiar with Xiliang dialect.
In Jiang Tongzhi’s words, “When I used to serve in the county, Shahe County where I was located was very close to the grazing market.
I also went to the grazing market and met the Xiliang merchants.
Of course, judging from Jiang Tongzhi's fluent and weird Western Mandarin conversation with the Xiliang scribe, Jiang Tongzhi's "not being proficient" can be regarded as Jiang Tongzhi's humility.
As for Li Shenzheng, although he does not understand the Western Barbarian language, his understanding of the Western Barbarians is very clear.
Li Shenzheng's words are also very true, "Before I came to Beichang Prefecture to serve as an official, I checked some customs of Xiliang and the military plans of the Ministry of War.
It was not for anyone else.
Although Xiliang is a small country, it has always been ambitious.
What's more, , He is not a pleasant person in power now.”
In this way, Jiang Shaoqing gradually understood Xie's consort's intentions.
Just like what Xie Consort said inadvertently, "We will eventually return to the imperial capital.
The peace of Beichang Prefecture does not depend on the officials of Beichang Prefecture."
Jiang Shaoqing looked at Li Jiang and the two of them, knowing that their promotions were probably already certain.
The author has something to say: s: It’s a bit late to write about officialdom.
