Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 1289
There is a lot of traffic in front of the Qin Mansion on Cherry Island.

All kinds of expensive and luxurious carriages lined up in a long line, from the street to the end of the alley. Countless people wanted to pay a visit to this Duke Qin who resigned with the golden palace crown and was still crowned King of Luzon.

But the Qin family doesn't even accept name stickers, and they can't send in gifts, let alone meet each other.

Qin Lang had already gone to the bamboo garden in Ludaofang.

Before parting, Qin Lang met some old friends for tea, Xu Jingzong from the neighbor, Ma Zai Ma Xun, the son of Ma Zhou next door, Lai Ji Laiheng brothers, Pei Xingjian, Luo Tong and Li Yifu, Wang Dejian and Xin Mao , Ren Ya equal.

Cui Dunli, Cheng Yaojin and Jia Runfu also came.

This can be regarded as Qin Lang's powerful ally in Beijing, so before leaving, he naturally wanted to have a chat.

"Master, the student is late!"

Shangguanyi, dressed in a scarlet robe, came in and greeted Qin Lang very politely as a teacher and a student.

Qin Lang smiled, and beckoned him to sit down. Shangguanyi and Laiji brothers were both Jinshi when Qin Lang was the chief examiner of Zhenguan's first imperial examination, and they won the top three with Laiji brothers.Different from the imperial examination system that started in the later period of Zhenguan, the first class was changed to six people. The number one scholar was the second in the list, two were third, and three were third. At the beginning, there were only three people in the first class.

After Zhenguan, the imperial examination system has been very mature, and more and more imperial examination candidates have been selected. Even the imperial examination Jinshi has been paid more and more attention in the officialdom. Qin Lang's disciple.

They all respect Qin Lang as their teacher. When they first entered the official career, they certainly valued Qin Lang, the emperor's son-in-law and court celebrity. This teacher-student friendship was the most important help for them to enter the official career, and Qin Lang Lang also attached great importance to those Jinshi students who were as old as him or even older than him, and naturally spared no effort to help these students.

Qin Lang's disciples spread all over the government and the public. Up to now, many of Jinshi's disciples have now stepped into the middle and high-level positions.

Tathagata Jigang was awarded the title of Minister of Zhongshu, Lai Heng was also awarded as a member of Zhongshu, and Pei Xingjian was also a member of Zhongshu.

Shangguan Yi had just been awarded the title of Secretary and Young Supervisor. From the fourth rank, he was one of the two deputy chiefs of the Secretary Province. His boss was Sun Chong, the eldest son of Changsun Wuji.

"Today is a small tea party with a group of friends. We are leaving Beijing soon. Let's chat and say goodbye. I don't know when we will see you again!"

The Ma Zai brothers served tea and water there.

Before Ma Zhou died, he wrote to Qin Lang, hoping that Qin Lang could take care of his son. One of his two sons was Ma Zai, who was born with his first wife, and Ma Xun, who was born with Xu Xian Du Shi.Of course, Qin Lang couldn't live up to his entrustment.

Now Ma Zai has just been arranged by him to be a member of the Zhongshu Province. In order to be an official of the sixth grade, Qin Lang arranged to be a member of the Zhongshu Province together with Ma Zai and his righteous brother, Ma Zhou. The adoptive son and student Li Jingxuan adopted back then.Li Jingxuan belonged to the southern ancestral branch of the Li family in Zhaojun. His father Shi Li Xiaoqing, governor of Gu, had a good relationship with Ma Zhou.

Because Qin Lang's bamboo garden in Luoyang was next to Ma Zhou's house, Qin Lang and Li Jingxuan Ma Zai were relatively familiar, and they even worshiped under Qin Lang's sect, and often asked him for advice, and they were also regarded as disciples.

Because the two are well educated, and they both passed the imperial examinations to obtain Jinshi. Although it is customary to be selected as a candidate in the Ministry of Officials, and start as a county lieutenant in the local area, after all, there is a backer in the court, so their official careers are very smooth. This time, Qin Lang Arranging them to enter the Zhongshu Province as general staff, although it is only from the sixth rank, it is much better than the general sixth rank state to join the military.

Because Ma Xun is still young, he is now studying in Chongxian Hall, so he will naturally not worry about his future in the future.

"When I first came here, I passed by Cherry Island in Shanglinfang, and it was completely blocked."

Qin Lang chuckled, "Just ignore it."

Although Xu Jingzong, Li Yifu, and even Li Jingxuan and others had a bad reputation in history, among the people in Qin Lang's room today, there are quite a few people who have paid homage to the prime minister in history. Jiang and Ren Yaxiang also served as prime ministers.

Both Pei Xingjian and Li Jingxuan are all-round talents with both civil and military skills.

Jia Runfu looked at the talented people in this room, and couldn't help but sigh Qin Lang secretly. Except for him, Cheng Yaojin, and Cui Dunli, there are a group of young people here, all of them are young. Occupy an important or high position.

"The black otters wanted to come, but they were afraid of being abrupt." Lao Cheng was not used to tea, but he didn't drink alcohol today.

Black Otter is the nickname of Zuo Jinwu's General Wu Guang. His name is Hei 闼, and his nickname is Hei Otter. His relationship with Qin Lang is naturally very close.

Qin Qiong and Qin Lang have always been the leaders of the military upstart faction. Even now, Qin Lang has faded out of the military circle, but this prestige and connections cannot be replaced by just anyone, not even Li Ji.

But before Qin Lang left Beijing, he only invited Cheng Yaojin, and he didn't want to make too much noise.

What's more, these old relationships with the military, even if they don't meet each other, the relationship will not fade away.

In today's tea party, Qin Lang's main purpose was to give them more opportunities to communicate, so that everyone can support each other in the court.

Qin Lang has also been in the court for more than [-] years. It's not clear what is going on. Whenever he wants to do something, he must first establish a good relationship.

Even in the Zhenguan Dynasty, known as the Zhongzhengying Dynasty, there are factions everywhere.

Now that the situation has changed drastically, for the sake of their respective interests, it is even more necessary to stick together.

Although Qin Lang is also opposed to fighting against dissidents, and doesn't like factional struggles, but in it, you can't gain a foothold if you don't.

He is leaving, but the interests of the Qin family are still closely related to the imperial court. The future status and rights of the Qin family and even Lu Song will have to rely on the support of the court, which cannot be separated from these people in front of them.

Isn't Qin Lang paving the way for them and supporting them just for this day, after he leaves, they can also help him, ensuring that his benefits will not be lost after he leaves.

"Teacher, the angel in the palace has arrived!"

Qin Lang frowned, the emperor actually sent an envoy?Although he also knew that it was impossible to hide this low-key tea party from anyone, but what is the meaning of the emperor sending an envoy?

To show that everything is under his control?

"The Zhai family knew that today is the birthday of the county king, so they specially sent a gift."

Today is indeed Qin Lang's birthday, 37 years old, and today will be 38, but it's not the [-]th birthday, nor the tenth birthday, so under normal circumstances, Qin Lang doesn't know how to deal with it, usually it's just family reunions and fun .

This year he was leaving Beijing, so Qin Lang used his birthday as an excuse to invite Xu Jingzong, Cheng Yaojin and some old disciples to have a cup of tea together.

Unexpectedly, the emperor sent someone to celebrate his birthday.

The emperor bestowed many things.

Pulled several cars.

There are also twelve famous horses of various colors in the imperial stables, all of which are of pure blood, and all of them are worth more than a thousand horses.

There are also gold and silver artifacts, splendid silk and satin, and even Liaodong Haidongqing, Linyi five-color parrots, Fushu poodles and other things.

There is actually a box of specially minted birthday coins, made of gold, silver and copper, and even jade. The coins are the same as ordinary Kaiyuan coins, but the words on them are the words of congratulating Qin Lang on his birthday.

It can be said that he has a heart.

Such a batch of money needs time to customize. It seems that the new emperor has indeed been prepared for a long time.

Such a batch of rewards amounted to more than 40 guan. Not long ago, the emperor came to Qin Lang's house and bestowed a treasure of [-] guan. Today, he is even more generous.

Although since Zhenguan, the treasury has been full, and even the emperor's internal funds are also very rich, the emperor is not stingy in rewarding the ministers, and even formed a tradition of treating ministers favorably, and the prime ministers are treated even better.

For example, Li Jing, as a veteran, is also an old mascot in the military. He was a prime minister in his 80s, so the imperial court sends envoys to celebrate Li Jing's birthday every year. , There will also be envoys to condolences and rewards. The generous treatment makes people envious and jealous.

However, for Qin Lang, money and things cannot impress him. To put it bluntly, in terms of money, his net worth is no less than the emperor's internal money.

Even many luxury treasures bestowed by the emperor are still from the Qin family, such as high-end tea and sugar, such as silver mirrors and glass.

In Qin Lang's mind, the emperor sent a congratulatory gift of 40 guan. Perhaps he wanted to tell Qin Lang more that even if the Holy Patriarch dismissed the Zhenfu Division, Dianqian Division, and Baiqi Division, he would still be able to control everything.

Qin Lang smiled, this young emperor has a lot of energy, which is very interesting, but Qin Lang has no intention of fighting against this emperor.

Anyway, the emperor passed the list that he and Changsun Wuji drew up, which means that although the emperor does not act normally, the emperor is still very smart. Even if he drove Qin Lang away, he did not mess around. Every step is also carefully calculated.

Just like he also knew that Qin Lang had no intention of staying in the court for a long time, so he used Qin Lang to enhance his emperor's authority. Didn't the emperor take action against Changsun Wuji or Li Ji, because he also knew that these two were not at all There is no intention of retreating, if the emperor wants to drive them away, something will happen.

Qin Lang was about to leave, and the emperor borrowed Qin Lang to establish his prestige. Qin Lang knew it well, but was willing to cooperate. The teacher and the student still had a tacit understanding.

Knowing these things, what should be arranged should be arranged. Qin Lang didn't shrink back. Even if Li Yin is an emperor with personality, he can't be an enemy of the entire court.

Qin Lang also had no intention of emptying the emperor, but what should be arranged still needs to be arranged.

He gave gifts to the envoys and wrote a thank you note to the emperor.

The tea party continues.

Qin Lang even invited the angel not to leave in a hurry, and stayed to drink tea and chat together, and did not send him away with the guests until the tea party was over.

Originally, it was just a tea party, and there were no secrets, just for everyone to be familiar with. Since the emperor is very curious, let his people participate as well, so as to reassure him.

the next day.

Qin Lang didn't inform others, so he set off from Luo to Chang'an, and the coffin of the holy ancestor would also leave in the next few days.

No one saw him off, although Lao Cheng and others also knew that Qin Lang was leaving Luo today, but Qin Lang had already confessed not to see him off. After all, he was kicked out of the court by the emperor after all. He was too high-profile when he left, which would undoubtedly make the new emperor Displeased.

The wives, concubines and children will stay in Luoyang for the time being, the Taiping Princess Lizhi will go to Chang'an later, and the others will leave for the south after the year.

Qin Langtian rode his horse out of the capital slightly brighter, accompanied by his servants and guards.

Just after leaving Luoyang City, a group of people behind arrived, but it was the eunuch who announced the decree yesterday. Qin Lang already knew that this person was Guo Yuanzhen, who was newly appointed by the emperor as an envoy of the Hanlin Academy, the emperor's confidant and middle official.

He came here with an order and delivered a decree.

The emperor added an official title to Qin Lang who left Beijing.

Procuratorate order.

The Taishi, Pingzhang Military Affairs, Shanling Etiquette Envoy, Shangzhu Kingdom, Lusong County King, and Wei Guogong accepted this decree, Xie En took it, and then wrote a letter of refusal to the emperor on the side of the road.

"It's hard work for the hospital."

Qin Lang turned around and rode his horse towards Chang'an.
