Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 695 Gold and Silver Posts
The rules of silver posts are not so complicated. Chang’an’s famous filial sons, filial daughters, elders, somewhat famous celebrities from poor families, dedicated low-level officials, low-level captains of the Chang’an garrison, officials who have made great contributions during the year, and those who have been appraised for excellence. The county magistrates and governors who returned to Beijing to report on their duties were released.

Those with gold posts would bring gifts into the palace, while those with silver posts would leave with their rewards after the banquet.

Ma Zhou put down the golden post: "Everyone, let me tell you my opinion first. I can't go with a knife. He is the old man of Wenyue Pavilion. This time there are only two places, so I will give up with a knife."

Yidao nodded and stood aside, he has this kind of bearing.

Ma Zhou continued: "The people who acted on Wa Island have made a lot of contributions, but they can't go there either. The world should not let the world know about their contributions to Wa Island. Unless Wa Island becomes a place of the Tang Dynasty, the merits will not be explained. Forgive me."

Mu Yun cupped his fists and retreated to the side, and the rest of the people who went to Wa Island with him also retreated.

They understood that Datang had great plans for Wa Island, their meritorious deeds had been recorded in the secret book of history books, and everyone was rewarded generously by the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of War.

"The ones who went this time were first to deal with the people sent by the prairie. But there were two of them who couldn't go because they were seriously disabled. It wasn't because of their lack of meritorious service, but because the people from the Ministry of Rites and the old aristocrats wanted to show the face of the Tang Dynasty, so the first The second is to be a person who can read and understand court etiquette and rules."

"That makes sense. Then those with broken legs and missing arms will step aside." Shark King ranked among the top three in his achievements on the grassland, so he said nothing to anyone.

Ma Zhou saluted, "Forgive me."

"You're being polite, my family doesn't say these things, you're right."

Ma Zhou added: "One more thing, this time we won't choose women for the time being. There are separate halls for men and women in the night banquet of the Taiji Hall, so it's useless for women to go. Instead, they will feel uncomfortable with the concubines in the harem and the noble ladies in Chang'an."

Ma Zhou said one by one, and finally there were six people left, and Ma Zhou said: "Then, the lottery is drawn."

Everyone laughed together.

After the candidates were selected, Zhang Chuchen sent someone to deliver a letter to Liu Mu and reported them to the list.

Liu Mu has finished packing up those manuscripts at home.

After getting the list, Baoqin reported it to Liumu, and then asked, "Mr. Lang, shall we go back to Liu's house?"

"Where are Xiao Linger and the others?"

"The meeting should be here. When we went yesterday, they were in Wutongfang. They originally said that they would go there early this morning. They wanted to buy some gifts and didn't want to be empty-handed. It's just that we came back in the morning and probably missed it on the way."

Liu Mu nodded, and asked again: "How about Su Woling?"

"Very proud, but very peaceful. According to the observation I arranged for people in Wutongfang, apart from being not very friendly to her own people, she would give a small gift from Wajima to the noble ladies she met in Wutongfang. "

"Very good." Liu Mu didn't say anything more.

Baoqin added: "That Su Woyazi has been working hard to learn Chinese recently. If her accent is heard by people in the Jiangnan area, I'm afraid she might be mistaken for Chang'an."

"What do you think?"

"I'm afraid the Supreme Emperor's speculation is accurate. She is holding back and waiting for a chance to take revenge. According to the rules, she has done some meritorious deeds, and the princess will personally reward her in the New Year. The princess means, or A big reward, or asking her what she wants, depends on the situation at the time."

After Baoqin finished speaking, he asked again: "Mr. Lang, shall we go back to Liu's house?"

"No return."

The big banquets of the top aristocratic families in Chang'an will be held on the night of the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, because they will participate in the palace's night banquet on New Year's Eve.So tonight is the New Year's Eve banquet of the Liu family.

This is not because of Liu Mu, and Liu Zifang is also a person who is qualified for the gold post.

Liu Chongchong has a silver post.

Liu Mu doesn't have a post, he doesn't need it, his face is a post.Even Baoqin is not needed, Baoqin is authorized by the eldest grandson Wugou, who is qualified to participate in the banquet of female relatives.

Baoqin persuaded again: "Lang Jun, you should go back. If you don't go back, there is no suitable reason."

"This!" Liu Mu didn't want to go back, he wanted to wait for news from the Ministry of Rites.

Baoqin persuaded again: "It's not that there are no people in our house, we have arranged it. Except for the inner restricted area, the rest of the squares are also on holiday. Most of the people live in Sanyuan or Jingyang. First send people to pick some people to come over, even if you are not selected, the gentleman will give you a big reward."

"Okay, according to your words." Liu Mu still agreed with Baoqin's suggestion.

After Baoqin went to make arrangements, Liumu and Baoqin went to the south of Chang'an City. When they left the city and arrived at Liu's mansion in Chang'an, the sun had already set, and it was only half an hour before dark. Liumu Just arrived at the gate of Liu's house.

Liu Zifang has already come back one step ahead, and the committee is arranging seats in the main hall.

The big family is the same as the imperial court, whoever sits in that position is very particular, not only by concubines, but also by seniority and title.Although Liu Mu is currently the highest titled member of the Liu family, his seniority is too low to be the top chief, but he is also one of the first few seats.

Dugu Lanruo is the absolute chief in the women's family area in the backyard.

Because she is a princess, this one reason is enough.

Seeing Liu Mu coming back, several members of the Liu family who were of the same generation as Liu Mu immediately greeted them. They didn't know what they thought or saw before, but now they know that Liu Mu has the power to decide someone's future and destiny with just a few words.

Liu Mu kept returning the salute with a smile, and happily walked into the house.

In the house, a young man greeted Liu Mu, and the others immediately scattered aside when they saw this situation.

"Liu Shi." The visitor reported his name.

Liu Mu lightly patted Liu Shi's left arm twice: "Whatever you want to say, don't say it here."

Liu Shi didn't expect Liu Mu to say that, he was taken aback for a moment, and then stepped aside, letting Liu Mu go first and then followed into the main hall.After Liu Mu greeted all the elders, he said that he was going to change clothes.

Liu Shi said that he took Liu Mu there.

In one room, a servant had prepared hot water. After Liu Mu had washed his face, he changed his coat into the normal clothes he would wear at home.

Only then did Liu Xun speak: "At first, I heard that the great uncle and the landlord told me that you arranged a marriage for me, and then arranged a new official position. I refused at that time."

Liu Mu smiled: "This short story is probably more interesting if it is told by my uncle."

"Yes, I was very opposed to it at the time. I can't make decisions about marriage. This matter should be arranged by the elders. But I can make decisions for myself in official positions. I think I have outstanding talents, and I believe that there will be a day when people will vote for me. "

"That's right, have you heard of Liu Rengui?"

Liu Xun nodded: "Of course I have heard of it, and I still know it. Although I am not very familiar with it, I can chat a few words when we meet, and it is okay to sit down and have a few drinks."
