Chapter Seventy-Three: The Height of the Temple


Tai'an City was empty, and the emperor of the Zhao family and the queen Zhao Zhi waited outside the city, bringing all the big and small yellow doors of the Hanlin Academy, just to wait for one person.

The chief officials of the six departments all spontaneously "lazy" came to gather outside the city, and even Lu Baijie, the secretary of the military department, also took a break from his busy schedule, not to mention a big idler like Yuan Yu, the head of the six departments, and Wang Xionggui, the head of the household department, who went out of the same door as him but eventually parted ways, and there was a large group of dependent officials behind each of them, which was particularly distinct.

There are also many noble and transcendent palace scholars, including Yan Jiexi, a relative of the imperial family, as well as many elders and nobles who can not participate in the court meeting after they are old, and their descendants.

It can be said that there is only Yin Maochun, who is in charge of the local officials outside Beijing, but only careful people will find that in fact, this unprecedented open-air banquet is a little fly in the ointment, because there are two extremely heavy figures, the first assistant Zhang Julu, and Tantan Weng Huanwen, who holds the power of the province under the door.

However, there are too many dignitaries and peddlers gathered outside Tai'an City, and the absence of these two important ministers of the court, intentionally or unintentionally, does not affect the hustle and bustle of the capital today.

When the Song family was the overlord of the literary world, who let the father and son visit on a snowy night but ate a closed-door soup, Xu Weixiong's mentor with a very high spirit, who did he quarrel with before he lost the position of the Shangyin School Palace's big sacrificial wine, and who was qualified to let the science family led by Yao Baifeng do not hesitate to contend with the whole clan, who made the Emperor of Great Chu give birth to the feeling of "the public does not go out of the mountain, Nai Cangsheng He" At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, who was facing the pressure of the Xu family's 10,000 iron horsemen at that time, he walked out alone, and in a few words, he let that person Tu take the initiative to detour This is recognized by the government and the opposition as a big man who is "high in learning and high in the sky".

It is Qi Yanglong, the current great sacrificial wine of Shangyin School Palace.

There are still more than fifty miles away from Tai'an City, and on a slightly remote official road, there is a group of strange detainees, the oldest of whom are already full of sparse snow hair, short in stature, dusty and dusty, and carry a shabby bamboo bookcase.

A man in his thirties was carrying a girl in a green robe, and the three of them met on the way north to Tai'an City.

The little girl in green doesn't treat this old guy who is disrespectful to the old man, crazy, and always likes to say something she doesn't understand, this is not half a bucket of water there to show off her knowledge, especially when the old man talks about things in Beiliang, he is very chattering, and the green robe hates the vassal king who let him never see the second grandfather again, so he is more and more reluctant to deal with the old man who was nicknamed a dwarf winter melon by her.

What's more, the old man still likes to see beautiful women along the way, but he can't take his eyes off, and the little girl has complained to her several times, but he always smiles but doesn't agree.

At this time, there was a group of children of a family with fresh clothes and angry horses on the official road, and the old man finally looked away from a rich woman riding a horse, and began to chant again, "Alas, today's girl is really getting more and more handsome, compared with the previous fifty or sixty years, it is much better-looking." ” After leaving Emperor Wu City, Yu Groom, who went all the way north, smiled softly and asked, "Old man, there is still this exquisiteness."

The old man carefully stroked the fading snow-white hair, and felt a little sorry for the old brothers who fell from their heads along the way, squinted his eyes and sighed: "Yes, the world is good, women can come out well, and the older you are, the more envy you young people."

Young man, when you get older, you will feel like this. ” Wang Xianzhi's eldest apprentice, who was called a young man, laughed at it, and Yu Groom was not a person who liked to greet people politely, so he stopped talking.

The old man opened his mouth to speak, as if a flood was being discharged from a sluice, and he couldn't stop it at all, and said to himself: "The world is like water flowing forever, but after the end of the Spring and Autumn War, there was a big turning point, and the flow direction has changed, and it will only get better and better in the future."

What is the truth, I can't say it for three days and three nights, hey, but I just know. ” The green robe lying lazily on the back of the groom pouted: "Even if you like to talk, you think I like to listen" The old man smiled: "Little girl, do you know what it means to like someone?"

The green robe turned his head and simply didn't look at this disgusting old man.

The old man asked and replied: "That is, before I saw the other party, I didn't know what it was, and after I missed it, I didn't know what it was." ” The bottomless Yu groom seemed to have a heart touched and frowned.

The old man jumped for a moment, probably hoping to see the walls of Tai'an City, and made this antics with a heavy bookcase on his back, which made the green robe who was actually peeking at him laugh.

The old man grimaced at the female doll, causing the green robe to roll his eyes, rested his little head on the groom's warm shoulder, and asked, "Grandpa dwarf winter melon, do you have someone you like?"

The old man shook his head and smiled: "No, when I was young, there were many women who liked me. ” The green robe scraped his cheek with his fingers, laughing at the old man's shamelessness.

Yu groom walked to the stubble of the official road and said with a smile: "Old man, we have to continue to go north, hoping to meet again one day." ” The old man waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's hard to say goodbye to each other today, I'm an old man buried here with loess to my neck."

The green girl who doesn't know her name must be slim in the future. ” The green robe sighed.

Yu groom carried the little girl on his back and continued to walk towards Liangliao, while the old man walked towards Tai'an City.

I have lived for too many years and have hidden too many words.

The old man could not find anyone to talk to, and for many years he could only talk to himself.

"Lao Hong, you have received a basket of disciples and protégés, and only then did you produce Zhang Julu and Huan Wen.

It seems that you cast a wide net and didn't catch many big fish. ” "Look at me again, Xun Ping, Xie Feiyu, Yuan Benxi, just three anonymous students."

"Lao Hong, this time I went to Beijing, don't blame me for bullying the small, but if you have the ability to crawl out of the coffin and scold me, then you have the ability."

As he walked, the old man was finally able to look up and see the majestic outline of Tai'an City, and the old man turned the bookcase upside down and hummed a little tune hoarsely.

I'm from the mountains, and I'm carrying an old bookcase.

I'm going to the downtown area, where is my hometown?

Tantanon carried a pot of good wine and walked on the deserted and lonely streets, flanked by the premier mansions in the capital, but at this time they all went outside the city to greet the old guy who was older than himself.

Stopped outside a mansion, looked up at the golden plaque of the emperor's handwriting, the plainly dressed "Prime Minister" porter saw this unexpected guest, and was a little stunned, but before this year, Tantanong was simple to go in and out, and there was no way to make his own assertion of the teacher, and when the time came, he would be grabbed by the left servant and grabbed the pigtail, but he stepped forward to say hello, Huan Wen nodded with a smile, and said a few words casually, "Lao Ma, has your little daughter been married, if not, Do you want me to help you kidnap a young man from Menxia Province", and other familiar words, the old concierge of Zhang's mansion surnamed Ma was amused.

Huan Wen was more familiar with this mansion than his own, and he didn't need others to lead the way, so he went straight to Lord Shoufu's study, and didn't knock on the door, crossing the threshold, Zhang Julu, who was used to standing and reading with a book, glanced at it obliquely and didn't speak.

Huan Wen put the pot of imperial wine that he brought from the Ministry of Rites on the desk, sat on the only chair in the study, and said, "It's really a cicada noise forest is too quiet." ” The two old men are best friends, and in Tantanon's words, you know what shit is going to poop when you pout your ass with blue eyes.

Zhang Julu quickly understood, and said calmly: "This is not a cicada noise, Qiyanglong enters Beijing, it is to take Yangguan Avenue, and it is Jiaolong to enter the sea." ” Huan Wen snorted coldly, picked up a few sparse tips on the desk, and suddenly his heart sank, and asked: "You really want to make a big move about the luck of the Northern Lords, and the salt Zheng who is regarded as the root of life by the Spring and Autumn nouveau riche in the capital, plus a few days ago, you were in the court, and proposed to set the rules for the left and right attendants of the military department to inspect the border passes on schedule, okay, the base camp of the two scholars in the imperial court, as well as the local generals headed by Gu Jiantang, plus your cutting domain, these four behemoths, one of them has not fallen, and you are a little bit of an enemy."

Zhang Julu didn't raise his head, and said: "You are one less, I have to vigorously rectify the shortcomings of the officials, after the world's cold scholars advance, they can't be done once and for all, they still have to talk about the rules." ” Huan Wen muttered, "Crazy, crazy. ” Zhang Julu put away the books in his hand and meticulously put them back in their original place, the tall head of this dynasty stood in the shadows, and said slowly: "Our Liyang is not the Great Chu of the left side of the Jiang'an River back then, no matter when the remnants of Western Chu are extinguished, the imperial court will continue to transport the food and material resources of the rich land in the southeast to the capital, which is a great plan for the country that needs to be operated for a hundred years, not to mention that the border war is coming soon, it has become an urgent need."

When I proposed the issue of shipping grain by sea, it turned out that it was not feasible and too risky, and the disappearance of the fleet in the last years of Yonghui still does not know whether it was shipwrecked or hijacked.

This canal has a bad language that scrapes all the ointment of the southeast, but it also shows its important surname to the imperial court, the strategy I set at the beginning, it is indeed to raise the northern Liao soldiers with taxes in the southeast, and by the way to force the West Chu to rebel, and even the people along the canal every year to fight for the river water and provoke the people's uprising, so they also deliberately do not want to suppress, but in recent years, the northern nobles from the land of Longxing have a country's lifeblood and profit, but they don't know it, and they are more and more rampant, Yonghui has nine million stone of grain into Beijing in six years, and then it decreases year by year, Now it has been sharply reduced to less than eight million stones, where to go, even if they let the grass and horse thieves swagger and carry away the grain, how much can they take away In order to appease those so-called founding merits, the imperial court did not hesitate to set up a special Cao Yun official with the official position of the second grade, and the eight chief officials including the Cao Grain Transfer Department and the Sending Division are all above the fifth grade of the pension officials, if they can make money in peace, it will be fine, but now that Xichu has returned to the country, they dare to send the grain to the north has not yet ended, Even the military department Shangshu Lu Baijie's troop transfer order dared to come up with the so-called ancestral system to refuse, I don't come to move the Cao government, who will start, when the time comes, will the soldiers in the north go hungry to fight against the Beimang, is it difficult to eat food for the soldiers who died for the country to fill their stomachs, and even beg grandpa to tell grandma to beg those Caoyun officials who never put the household department in their eyes" Huan Wen sighed and shook the fold in his hand, "Then whoever makes money in this salt administration is not earning, it is originally a piece of fat that will be eaten into the mouths of outsiders in the court, so you have to go to the tiger's mouth to extract your teeth."

Zhang Julu sneered: "The stagnant water stinks, and the living water is clear."

The power issued by the salt seal has been given to them to hold in their hands for more than ten years, and they have earned money that future generations will not be able to spend in ten lifetimes, and the imperial court's reward is not rich enough, and the great military merits should be rewarded to the end.

It's time for a different group of people to sit in the village and say that they are going to make money."

Huan Wen asked: "Are you planning to give it to the wealthy family of the Jiangnan family who prides itself on having two sleeves and a clear breeze on his shoulders?"

Zhang Julu nodded and said: "No, how can they sincerely contribute to the imperial court, otherwise the imperial court has been fighting with Western Chu for decades, and they can also leisurely enjoy their decades of ups and downs, and the bad habits of the tyrants have always been like this."

There are only two things that can make them take the initiative to bow their heads, official hats and money bags. ” Huan Wen wanted to speak and stopped, if it was in previous years, he could pick out any matter, he could discuss it with Biyaner all night and night, until it was confirmed that there was no major harm to the people's livelihood, and then he joined hands to implement one national policy after another, just like slowly channeling the meridians of the entire empire.

Zhang Julu walked out of the shadows, and in the twilight, the dusk afterglow shone on the side of the tall old man's face.

Huan Wen sighed.

Zhang Julu asked, "I heard that you had a bad cough some time ago."

Huan Wen glared and said: "Minor illnesses and small disasters, and pouring strong liquor on yourself without knowing moderation, which one do you say will die quickly?"

Zhang Julu laughed.

Huan Wen hesitated for a moment, and was about to speak, Zhang Julu smiled and said: "That young man from Beiliang who lives in your subordinate province, I will give him a comment that he is not clever enough to use or not, and he can always keep him safe for a few years." ” Huan Wen took a deep look at this old friend, and then walked out of the study silently.

Zhang Julu opened his mouth, but finally didn't say anything, just looked at Huan Wen's old back, and waved his hand gently.

After Tan Tanong left the Zhang Mansion, where someone now dared to submit a letter at the door to insult Lord Shoufu, he went straight to Zhao's urn and came to the Hanlin Academy, where no one was on duty, except for the miscellaneous officials, and there was almost no one in the Hanlin Academy.

The old man smiled astringently, Tai'an City thought that as long as the old dragon was born to help the common people, what deer would be needed Huan Wen walked to a secluded room, asked someone to bring the key to open, although there has been no large and small yellow door here for many years, but it is often cleaned, and it is quite elegant and clean.

Back then, he and Biyan'er were in this house, he Huan Wen was high-spirited, his eyes were empty, after drinking, anyone dared to scold, I Huan Wen couldn't tell me what was going on in the world And Biyan'er never drinks, he listens, and every time he waits for him to get drunk, he has to carry him home.

Huan Wen rummaged through a bookcase in the corner, found the pair of cups and chopsticks, and put them on the table.

After Huan Wen sat down, he took a chopstick and tapped the porcelain cup.

Ding.

The old man choked up and said: "Spring Mountain is still green if it is not old, and the people are old and scarce without companions, and they only listen to the logging dingding." ” Ding Ding Ding.
