Manchu traitor, how can you let me be the emperor of the ages

Chapter 139: Master Li, Xiao Wei and Xiao Bu on the Palace Trip

Chapter 139: Master Li, Xiao Wei and Xiao Bu on the Palace Trip
The gentry and landowners in Guancheng and Zhongmou counties wanted to find Heshen and his lord, but Gaoshan County quickly released the word.

Mr. He will not stay in Gaoshan County for a long time, and will rush to the other two counties as soon as possible to inspect the disaster situation.

The people in the two counties calmed down a little, and they just waited for Master He to arrive, and immediately rushed up viciously... to deliver food to him.

The Yellow River is hundreds of feet wide, and the news from here spread to the north bank of the Yellow River overnight.

Yan Song frowned slightly after hearing Tong Qiufeng's report.

Others don't know why He Shen hastily repaired the embankment, doesn't he know?
It must be to be the first to get the job done as soon as possible.

Originally, Yan Song didn't think much about waiting for the top name with He Shen, but with that speech, everything changed.

He also wants His Majesty's promise not to settle the old score!

Yan Song pondered for a moment, then got up and took a few steps, thinking about the feasibility of this plan.

Yan Xiang didn't think it was He Shen's idea, so he couldn't use it.

As long as it works, what's yours is mine!
Tong Qiufeng, who was standing by the side, looked at him eagerly, wanting to test Yan Xiang's attitude, but he flinched a bit.

That's right, today he also came here with a mission.

The news came back last night, and the gentry and landowners in Wuzhi County couldn't sit still.

Why can they have a stone embankment in the south, but we can't have it in the north?
Isn't it just to borrow some food?Who can't get it out?

It's just that Yan Song is not He Shen. After yesterday's welcome meeting, the country gentry thought that Yan Xiang was a man of integrity and selflessness, and they didn't dare to come over to discuss such conditions with him.

Therefore, they all ran to Tong Qiufeng's place in one go, crying and begging their old parents to help them get this benefit as well.

The name is engraved on the embankment, the unique archway is the name, but with the stone embankment, there will be no floods for hundreds of years, that is a real benefit!
Fame and fortune, whoever doesn't want it is a brain problem.

On the surface, Tong Qiufeng couldn't hold them back, so he agreed in a very embarrassing manner, and he wanted to beg for Prime Minister Yan for the squires, which won the gratitude of the squires.

On the other side, I feel happy, but I can't do what I want.

This stone embankment stands there, but it is a real and resounding political achievement. If it can be repaired, it will last longer than Tong Qiufeng's years in office!
Although this thing is led by Yan Xiang, as long as he starts to practice, how can he bypass him, the parent official of Wuzhi County?
Even if he couldn't complete the repairs during his tenure, he, Tong Qiufeng, could be regarded as one of the initiators of the levee.

Listen, together with Yan Xiang, he launched the stone embankment in Wuzhi County. How famous is this name?How posh? ?
In the future, in the officialdom, anyone who sees him must first have a three-point respect!

And looking at it right now, this dike repair is still an excuse to deal more with Prime Minister Yan!

Only by letting Yan Xiang remember him, Tong Qiufeng, can the official luck be prosperous in the future...

Seeing that Yan Song frowned and remained silent for a long time, Tong Qiufeng finally plucked up his courage and asked, "Mr. Yan, can you see if we in Wuzhi County can also build a stone embankment?"

"The folks in the county have suffered from the Yellow River water for a long time. Now that Prime Minister Yan is here, it is time to save the people from the water and fire!"

Yan Song pondered for a moment, then nodded lightly: "Yes."

"However, there is no rush for this matter. It is only reasonable to wait for the old man to send a letter to the capital to invite people from the Ministry of Industry to survey the landforms and decide how to repair it first."

Tong Qiufeng was overjoyed: "Mr. Yan has far-sighted plans. Such a century-old plan must be carefully planned!"

"But now the folks in the county are waiting anxiously. Do you want to let the officials tell them the good news first and let them raise food?"

Yan Song glanced at him: "Just take your time to raise food."

"Heshen is entrusted with the emperor's order, so he is in a hurry to go to Zhongmou."

"The truth is that I don't have so many worries. First settle the matter in Wuzhi County, and then go to other counties."

That small thought was seen through, Tong Qiufeng bowed and said with a sneer: "Yes, Prime Minister Yan, I understand."

……

The capital, Dagan Imperial Palace.

Today's Li Gan got up from the bed early, without even eating, he followed Wei Zhongxian around the palace, and came to a palace gate that he couldn't name.

"Your Majesty, let's go out from here. Lu Bu is waiting outside the door."

"it is good!"

Li Gan stretched the green gown on his body, which was quite novel to this feeling.

Today's old eunuch is also dressed in a simple heather gray straight gown, with a brown square scarf on his head, which looks quite inconspicuous.

He led Li Gan and a few young eunuchs out of the palace in such a swaggering way. After seeing the old eunuch, the guards guarding the gate turned a blind eye to the group of people.

Li Qian didn't show any strange expression, the group of people walked out of the palace gate, and there was a faint noise and lively movement in the distance.

After leaving the gate of the palace, Li Gan paused. A wide and peaceful moat ran past in front of him. A white marble stone bridge flew over it.

If you look further into the distance, you can see pedestrians coming and going, shopkeepers pushing small carts, continuous and scattered squares and cities, and forests of pavilions... full of fireworks in the world.

Li Gan stomped the bluestone floor under his feet again, and only then did he feel a sense of down-to-earth.

Just when he was in a daze, the old eunuch took a few steps back and pointed to the right side for Li Qian in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's right here."

Then he looked in the direction pointed by the old eunuch, and saw a small black wool sedan chair with two loads parked in the distance, two bearers, two guards, and a man wearing a moon-white lake silk summer gown. Lu Bu, wearing a black net scarf, was walking around anxiously.

"it is good!"

Li Gan quickened his pace and walked over, he was even more looking forward to this trip out of the palace.

When Lu Bu heard the movement, he saw a group of people from a distance, especially Li Gan in the crowd, and was overjoyed immediately: "Yi...Yifu!"

Just as he was about to yell, he suddenly remembered that now was not the time, so he hurriedly held back his words, almost biting his tongue.

"Follow first."

Lu Bu, with a thick back and a thick beard and hair, was put on an elegant moon white robe. This contrasting outfit almost made Li Gan laugh out loud.

When he came to the sedan chair, the old eunuch still felt a little anxious and said, "Your Majesty, the conditions in the palace are no better than those outside the palace, so I can only wrong you first and take this kind of small sedan chair with two loads."

"It's okay."

Looking at the bustling scene in the distance, Li Qian waved his hands: "I actually want to walk there by myself, and also see the market in the capital, and then buy some food..."

It's all out, you have to have a good time shopping!

Li Qian felt that he could not miss this opportunity to go out of the palace. He had already made a plan in his heart, and said with a smile at this moment: "Don't they all say that the east is rich and the west is rich?"

"I want to go to the East Market first to see what kind of expensive method it is, and then to see the residences of Qin Xiang, Cai Qing's family and other high-ranking officials, and then to the West Market to see the Persian merchants, the fresh goods they brought, and more There are orchids..."

Li Gan counted his goals one by one, but the old eunuch and Lu Bu beside him were already stunned.

After regaining his senses, the old eunuch hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you have to go to too many places, and you may not be able to finish it all in a sedan chair, let alone you are walking?"

Lu Bu actually stood on the same ground as the old eunuch this time, and persuaded with a smirk, "Yes, father-in-law, it's a hot day, and you'll be covered in sweat after walking outside for a while, and you'll lose your appetite after a while. I don't care anymore."

When Li Gan heard this, he felt that this was also the case.

"Okay, then it's up to you! Companion, let's go to Dongshi first!"

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

The old eunuch wiped off his sweat: "It must be very lively."

The so-called two small sedan chairs are actually not much bigger than a sedan chair, and the space inside is even more cramped.

Fortunately, it is still morning and it is not hot.

When the sun shines brightly at noon, sitting in such a small black woolen sedan chair is the real toss-up.

However, Li Qian didn't ask too much. He was going out of the palace this time, and he acted in a low-key way.

Now this is considered a private visit on Weibo, right?
But it seems that there is still a little sense of ceremony... What is it?

Li Gan pondered for a moment, then suddenly shouted tentatively to the outside of the sedan chair: "Old Wei!"

Wei Zhongxian staggered and almost fell into the mud. After getting up, he looked around, and then looked into the sedan chair nervously: "Your Majesty?"

"Are you calling a slave?"

"Of course."

Li Gan leaned in the car, looked at the swaying car curtain, and said as it should be: "When we leave the palace, we can't call you Your Majesty and Companion anymore, right? stuffed?"

The old eunuch faltered, as if what he said made sense.

"Your Majesty is far-sighted, but this servant did not think of this. Your Majesty is still considerate!"

The old eunuch followed closely beside the sedan chair, and said to the sedan window with a flattering smile: "Your Majesty, it is better to call you Xiao Wei than Lao Wei, and you can call your servant Xiao Wei."

Lu Bu looked contemptuously at the old eunuch's appearance, and a four-character idiom naturally popped up in his heart: servile.

This word seems to have been created just for this old dog, so shameless!
Li Gan was also speechless in the sedan chair for a while: "I told you not to call your majesty, slave!"

"Just call me...call me master!"

Li Qian began to find a trace of role-playing... No, the sense of ritual and pleasure of a private visit in a micro-service, his eyes brightened and he said: "Today, I am the master of the Li family, and you are my butler! Butler Wei!"

The old eunuch was powerless to resist, so he had to enjoy it obediently: "Yes, Your Majesty...Master!"

Li Gan continued to smile and said: "Fengxian, I'd better continue calling you Fengxian!"

Lu Bu was taken aback, and quickly put on a smile, and walked quickly to the side of the sedan chair: "Father, Feng Xian is not close, why don't you call me Xiao Bu?"

The old eunuch looked at him contemptuously. This man is so flattering that he really has no bottom line!
Bush……

The corner of Li Gan's mouth twitched: "It's better to be Feng Xian, it doesn't matter whether you are close or not."

Lu Bu immediately responded with a smile: "Yes, adoptive father, then Bu is the adopted son of Mr. Li in the Li family."

Li Gan just wanted to agree directly, but suddenly stopped when the words reached his mouth: "By the way! Fengxian, don't there are many people who know you in the capital?"

The smile on Lu Bu's face froze: "This... foster father..."

"There should be many people who know that you are my adopted son, right? If you yelled outside, wouldn't it be revealing?" Li Qian frowned.

Lv Bu was afraid of being left behind, so he hastily argued, "Father, don't worry, today's trip will definitely not reveal anything!"

Li Gan was taken aback: "Why can't you reveal your secrets?"

Just as Lu Bu was about to explain, he felt the old eunuch's vicious eyes coming from his side, and he hastily held back his words.

He was quick-witted and found a reason for himself: "When we get to the place, Bu will put on a disguise and make sure no one will recognize him."

Li Qian frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "You don't need to dress up, it looks weird."

"You still call me master!"

"You, Lu Bu, are the new martial arts instructor of the Li family. You will help me train my servants. In this way, even if you are recognized by others, it will be justified."

Lu Bu was taken aback, with a strange expression on his face: "Yes, Master Yifu, but I would like to ask Master..."

He glanced at the old eunuch quietly: "Can this martial arts instructor, Bu, train all the servants? Doesn't this include your chief housekeeper?"

The old lady listened to the meaning of the words and was furious immediately.

I haven't thought about taking care of you before I stepped on the horse, but you have to take care of me first!

"Your Majesty...Master, if you want to manage people, it's our housekeeper who is in charge of the coach, right?"

Aggrieved, the old eunuch moved to the side of the sedan chair: "Where is the instructor who trains the butler instead?"

"Why not?"

Lu Bu said righteously and solemnly: "You are the housekeeper, and you are close to the master, so naturally you have to know some martial arts, so that you can protect the master in case of trouble!"

"I know martial arts!" the old eunuch said angrily, scratching his neck.

"That's not enough!"

Lu Bu raised his arm, showing off the muscles under Xiuyue's white robe, and emphasized: "To protect the master, the stronger the better..."

Sitting in the sedan chair, Li Gan held his forehead speechlessly.

As long as these two weirdos get together, they can quarrel with each other with a few words...

The black sedan was dangling, walking through the downtown area, Li Gan seemed to have heard shouts from outside, the sound of horseshoes clattering, and smelled the smell of food bought on the street through the curtain of the sedan chair...

Several times he wanted to open the car curtain and go for a walk, but he held back in the end.

But the old eunuch and Lu Bu didn't make him wait any longer, and after walking for a while, the sedan chair stopped at a street corner.

The sedan chair leaned forward, and Li Gan lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and walked out from inside.

The old eunuch really didn't lie, in front of him was an extremely bustling street, full of shops and signs from all walks of life, crowded with pedestrians, traffickers, men and women coming and going, very bustling.

Li Gan immediately became interested, called the old eunuch and Lu Bu and walked forward.

"Master, what are we going to eat this morning?" The old eunuch smiled and followed closely behind Li Gan, adapting quickly to the role of the chief housekeeper. He was originally the chief housekeeper.

"What to eat..."

Li Gan looked at the vendors, vendors, and all kinds of food on the street, and he was dazzled for a long time.

There are rice cake snack shops, breakfast stalls, restaurants, and all kinds of snacks, such as meat buns, Longkan Ci, sheep's head sticks, spicy canned lungs, sugar ice and snow cold meatballs, chicken head rice... …

To be honest, it's not that you can't eat delicious food in the palace, but those things are carefully prepared by the cooks. They are too delicate and crafty, but lack a kind of fireworks.

Only the things you eat in this kind of busy market are the most down-to-earth!
Li Gan looked left and right, and finally chose a breakfast stall: "Just eat that!"

The old eunuch and Lu Bu looked in the direction he pointed, and found that it was a cold noodle stall under a coarse cloth shed.

"go!"

Li Qian took two steps excitedly, then suddenly turned back to look at the old eunuch: "By the way, Old Wei, I don't have any money with me. You have to pay for today's expenses."

"Master, don't worry."

Wei Zhongxian followed up with a smile: "Let the old slave handle everything!"

When they came to the noodle stall, the old eunuch quickly walked a few steps and used his sleeve to help Li Gan brush the dust off the long bench before smiling and asking him to sit down.

"My guest, what do you want to eat?"

The waiter at the noodle stall ran over and asked with a smile, his hands clasped on his apron with greasy hands, looking quite nervous.

Li Gan looked up and down the young man's attire, frowned unrecognizably, and then looked back at the two steaming cauldrons in the store: "What kind of face does your family have?"

The waiter clutched the apron, swallowed, and introduced with a smile: "Guest officer, we have a lot of noodles here. You can pour whatever stew you want on it."

He pointed to several bowls behind and said, "But the best signature noodles here are still cold noodles. Would you like to try it?"

Li Gan looked back at the stall owner who was slapping noodles on the chopping board, and then nodded: "Okay, let's eat cold noodles!"

"How about you two?"

"We are the same as the master!"

"Bu also eats cold noodles!"

Lu Bu and the old eunuch ordered food immediately.

"okay!"

The shop waiter responded with a smile, and after a while brought back three bowls of noodles and put them on the short square table for the three of them.

The aroma is tangy, the light yellow chewy noodles are covered with sesame sauce, and there are thinly sliced ​​courgette strips... that is, sesame sauce and cucumber shreds, and black meat sauce with large diced meat, cowpea scrambled eggs... Finally It is also topped with half a spoonful of balsamic vinegar, half a spoonful of pepper water, and a few drops of sesame oil.

Li Gan watched his index finger move wildly, and didn't care about other things, he just mixed it casually and started to eat.

It's just that the old eunuch stopped him suddenly, and came over quietly: "Master, test the poison."

Li Gan froze, turned his head to look at him with a stiff neck: "Do you want to try?"

The old eunuch smiled and said: "Master, after all, you are away from home, be careful, be careful!"

Li Qian was speechless, watching the old eunuch pick a chopstick of noodles from his own bowl and put them into his bowl, then took out a silver needle from nowhere and poked it, took a final taste, and then nodded.

"Master, you can eat it!"

Li Gan didn't wait for him, and started to move his chopsticks long ago. The noodles won't taste good after a while!
After the three of them were full, they started strolling on the street.

Li Qian walked through the crowd, walked to this cloth shop for a while to have a look, then became interested in that pawn shop for a while, and went to the grocery store for a while, with great interest.

After being tired from shopping, the three of them sat at the tea stall on the side of the street and ordered a pot of herbal tea to rest.

"As expected of Dongshi!"

Li Gan said with emotion: "There are hundreds of schools of thought, it really opened my eyes!"

The old eunuch wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, and kept nodding his head: "Your Majesty, as long as you like it."

"It's just that the East Market is a bit small! We've been shopping around for a while, and I didn't see why this place is so expensive?"

Li Gan was a little puzzled: "Could it be that those dignitaries come here to buy things on weekdays?"

The old eunuch's smiling face froze, and he hurriedly explained: "My lord, this old slave specially chose a relatively remote place."

"If you really go to the most lively place in Dongshi, if you bump into someone you know, won't you be recognized?"

"Too……"

Li Qian nodded slightly, frowning slightly, looking at the street full of people coming and going.

For some reason, he just felt that something was wrong with this East City, but he couldn't tell exactly what was wrong...

Lu Bu refilled him with a cup of herbal tea. Seeing Li Qian's appearance, the old eunuch hurriedly persuaded him, "Master, anyway, we've had enough fun today, why don't we go back to the palace... go back to the mansion?"

It's already the noon boss at this moment, and it's only asking for trouble if we continue to stroll around.

Li Gan looked around again: "I haven't visited Prime Minister Qin's house yet."

The old eunuch was sweating profusely, and Lu Bu also tried to persuade him, "Master, we can only look outside, we can't go in, we can only see a wall!"

"It's really nothing to see, master!" The old eunuch also echoed: "The place where Prime Minister Qin lives is nothing more than a bit bigger than ordinary officials."

Li Gan looked at the two suspiciously, not knowing why they were so nervous.

"Then it's better to go back first..." Li Qian nodded slightly.

The two were immediately overjoyed, but before they were finished, Li Qian continued, "Let's go to the West Market tomorrow, and I have to see those Western Region merchants."

The faces of the two immediately fell down, and the old eunuch tried to persuade: "Master, the barbarian merchants in the Western Regions are all barbarians, uneducated by etiquette, and ugly like ghosts, with hair all over their bodies, there is really nothing to see."

Lu Bu also nodded, and persuaded with a serious face: "Except for those orchids' figure, it's not bad..."

In the middle of speaking, the old eunuch stared back.

Li Gan's eyes lit up, and his attitude immediately became firmer: "Zhen... I'm not here to see Hu Ji, I just want to see those Persian Hu merchants. I heard that every time those people come to the capital, they will bring something new. "

He also has his own purpose.

In this time and space, so many vassal states have been gathered together, and it has become what it is now.

So what is Europe like?Is the situation similar to that of Dagan?
Is it still the same as in my last life?
Li Gan drank the herbal tea in the porcelain bowl in one gulp, got up and walked out of the street: "That's it, we'll go to West Market tomorrow."

The two hurriedly got up to follow, the old eunuch gave Lu Bu a vicious look, and the latter couldn't help shrinking his neck...

Just like when he came out, the old eunuch brought Li Gan back to the palace through that gate.

After changing his clothes and coming to Ziwei Hall, Wu Meiniang and Lu Zhi told him a news.

"Your Majesty, Zhou Ziliang, the censor of Wuyang County, has returned to Beijing!"

"Zhou Ziliang?"

Li Gan was stunned: "It's the censor who went to Longxi to secretly investigate the evidence of Tianhuo burning the warehouse? Didn't Wei Zheng say that he would come back in three to five days?"

Lu Zhi sighed lightly, with a complicated expression on his jade face: "Your Majesty, this is probably Master Wei's plan."

"If the date of Zhou Yushi's return to Beijing was truthfully stated yesterday, someone would definitely obstruct him, or even harm him. Now that Zhou Yushi has returned to Beijing ahead of schedule, those people will be caught off guard."

Li Gan also reacted, his eyes lit up, he nodded in appreciation and said, "Wei Qing's family is really powerful!"

"Zhou Ziliang brought back the evidence of Tianhuo's fraud?"

"I'm not sure about that." Wu Meiniang shook her head slightly: "However, I heard that Yushitai has sent people to the Ministry of Punishment, so it should be that something has been found."

Li Gan frowned suddenly: "It's a bit early..."

The two women were startled: "What's so early? Your Majesty?"

"If he comes back with evidence in three to five days, then Gao Shilian will probably have left Beijing for Longxi, and Cai Bian has also gone to the Ministry of Punishment. Everything has been settled."

Li Gan got up and paced around the hall: "But it's not settled yet, if Song Min is embarrassed by the censors, Cai Jing and the others will inevitably have some twists and turns in Gao Shilian's matter, in order to threaten me to spare Song Min ..."

He thought for a moment, then turned to look at the old eunuch: "You get someone to tell Gao Shilian, let him arrange the affairs of the criminal department as soon as possible, and get out, preferably tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"Also go to the Ministry of Officials to urge them to drive out the appointment documents as soon as possible."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The old eunuch took the order and left happily.

If you can leave tomorrow, how come you have to give a speech, right?
At that time, there is no need to go to the West Market!

In fact, without Li Qian's urging, Qin Hui was already concerned about Gao Shilian's transfer.

There is no other reason, Cai Bian is going to replace Gao Shilian's doctor in the Ministry of Punishment. Only after Gao Shilian leaves can he leave the position of pushing officer and take up the post in the Ministry of Punishment.

Now there are only four days left before Zhou Lei's interrogation, if the transfer of these two people cannot be completed as soon as possible in these few days, then Cai Bian, the official who will intervene at that time, will still have to come!
Isn't all this arranged for nothing?

Therefore, the Central Secretariat had already drawn up the transfer edict for these two people, and after spending one night in the Ministry of Officials, they went through the process, and delivered it to the two people's homes early this morning.

Cai Bian's house is right next to Cai Jing's mansion. The four-entry mansion with blue bricks and black tiles is relatively wealthy among normal officials, but compared with the sprawling Cai Jing mansion next to it, it looks disgraced, like a small lump. lump of coal.

After receiving the imperial edict, Cai Bian was not very surprised. After all, Jing Zhaoyi and Wang Jin are officials of the third rank, and they can participate in both court meetings and court meetings.

As soon as the results of the court discussion came out yesterday, Wang Jin sent someone to tell him.

"Congratulations to Second Uncle, Congratulations to Second Uncle's promotion!"

Cai You ran up to congratulate me with a playful smile: "Second Uncle's promotion, why don't you give me two pieces of wedding candy, so that my nephew and I can be happy too?"

"There is no wedding candy, I will reward you with two wedding coins."

Cai Bian casually took out a couple of pennies from his sleeve and threw it to him, but Cai You happily put it away as if he had found a treasure.

"Second uncle, my father invites you to sit at home!"

Cai Bian originally had a faint smile on his face, but after hearing this, his face immediately pulled down: "No."

Cai You hastily came over to persuade him: "Second Uncle, you are an officer of the Ministry of Punishment, and my father is a court official. How can any officer have trouble with his own court official? Isn't this just making yourself guilty? What's more, you are brothers! "

In the six parts, Shangshu and Shilang are called Tangguan, while Langzhong and Yuanwailang are Siguan.

"Even if you don't go today, when you go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to take up the post, you will always meet?"

Cai Bian still shook his head coldly, turned around and walked towards the main room.

Seeing him like this, Cai You's suspicion flashed across his face, and he quickly followed up, tentatively saying: "Second Uncle, my nephew has heard some rumors before, I don't know if it is true or not."

"Some people say that my father did it secretly when you were demoted a few years ago. This matter..."

Cai Bian paused, and then walked forward: "The younger generation should not inquire about the affairs of adults."

Cai You was taken aback: "Is that true?"

Cai Bian ignored him and continued walking.

Cai You stared at his back, stunned for a moment, and no longer tried to persuade him, but lowered his head, turned around and walked out of "Little Cai's Mansion", and walked back to the "Da Cai's Mansion" next door...

Cai Bian received the transfer order here, but he just felt normal.

But as soon as Gao Shilian on the other side received the transfer order, he hurried out the door and set foot on the road to the imperial city.

In the carriage, Gao Shilian was dressed in a blue official robe. He opened the window and stared at the bustling and familiar scene in the capital outside the window, with some confusion in his eyes.

Although he had been longing for a promotion, he never expected it to happen so suddenly.

The wheels creaked and rolled over the bluestone slabs in front of the imperial city, and the driver's reminder sounded: "Master, we are here."

Gao Shilian got out of the carriage, and fixedly glanced at the tall red imperial city that he had traveled to and from for countless years, and for a moment, he felt a bit of inexplicable reluctance in his heart.

A burst of talking and laughing came from behind, and several officials in green robes walked past him talking and laughing, and entered the imperial city through the left tuck gate of Hanguang Gate.

Gao Shilian came back to his senses, packed up his mood, and walked forward...

"Your Majesty, Mr. Gao Shilian is here." In the Political Affairs Hall of Ziwei Palace, the old eunuch came in to report.

"Invite him to come in directly." Li Qian put down the ink pen in his hand, stood up and stretched, while Wu Meiniang and Lu Zhi retreated to the side room.

After a while, Gao Shilian, who was dressed in a blue official robe, came to the political affairs hall, bowed and said: "Mr. Gao Shilian, see Your Majesty."

Li Gan looked at his attire and said with a smile, "Get up and give me a seat."

"Now Gao Qing's family is the sheriff of the fourth rank, it's time to change this green robe."

The official robes of officials of the fourth rank and above are scarlet robes, which are embroidered with clouds and geese, so they are naturally different from those of the fifth rank.

Gao Shilian had just sat down, when he heard the words, he realized that the official uniform he was wearing was not right, he hurriedly got up and cupped his hands and said: "I came in a hurry, I haven't had time to change it yet."

Looking at his fearful expression, Li Gan frowned slightly, and then said with a smile, "Hurry up, hurry up!"

"Gao Qing's family, in fact, I don't want you to be in such a hurry, but I am worried that if you procrastinate, something will happen."

Gao Shilian also sat back on the small stool, and nodded in approval: "Your Majesty, I am at the Ministry of Punishment. Where did the censors get the evidence yesterday? It has caused quite a stir in the Ministry of Punishment."

"Now that the censors are watching, it is estimated that Song Min's matter will continue to be entangled."

Li Gan walked a few steps in the hall with his hands behind his hands, and nodded thoughtfully.

He suddenly turned his head to look at Gao Shilian: "Gao Qing's family, how is the auxiliary machine?"

Gao Shilian was stunned, and then replied: "Thanks to His Majesty's care, he is now serving as the history of Yongshou County, and I think he is quite handy in what he does."

Li Gan pondered for a moment: "Gao Qing's family, I have an idea, I wonder if you would like to consider it."

Gao Shilian's expression tightened, and just as he was about to get up again, Li Gan waved his hand: "You can just sit down and talk."

"I want the auxiliary machine to follow you to Longxi."

"Auxiliary machine?"

Gao Shilian was stunned: "Then his errand of classic history..."

"Just let it go."

Li Gan looked at him with a half-smile: "Could it be that you will treat him badly if you went to Longxi with your uncle, the sheriff?"

"That's not what I meant."

Gao Shilian blushed, and hurriedly explained: "It's just that His Majesty obtained this job for him, and it's His Majesty's will. It would be disrespectful to His Majesty if you abandon it hastily..."

"There is no disrespect."

Li Gan waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's just an errand of Canon History, and it's nothing."

"I see that the auxiliary machine has the talent of a prime minister. You don't need to be rigid in the capital. If you want him to go to Longxi with you to practice, you can go back and ask him about his plans. If he is willing to give up his current position in the history department, you can go to Longxi to take up the post. Take him with you."

In fact, this is also a place where Li Gan didn't think carefully.

At that time, he only thought about asking his grandson Wuji to take Zhou Lei back to Yongshou County, but for a moment he forgot the impact of doing so.

Later, when he reviewed the matter, he suddenly woke up.

Can this kind of person who does a lot of work for his immediate boss survive in the county government?

Even if others knew that he was related to the higher authorities and could not engage him, they would definitely not have a good attitude secretly.

It doesn't matter if you are negligent, everyone will make mistakes, Li Gan has also learned a lesson from this incident, and he will definitely think about things more comprehensively in the future.

It's just that as a direct victim, I still have to make up for Changsun Wuji.

It just so happens that Gao Shilian can go to Longxi together by taking advantage of the opportunity of Gao Shilian's departure from Beijing.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, that kid will definitely be willing."

Gao Shilian was so excited when he heard Li Qian's words "the talent of Zaifu": "His Majesty Meng values ​​him so much, if he is not willing to go, I will tie him to Longxi even if he is kidnapped!"

"Ha ha!"

Li Qian smiled softly: "You also have to ask for his opinion? Don't be too powerful!"

"If he is willing to go, you have to talk to him about what happens in Longxi, so that he can help you with ideas and give him more opportunities to exercise."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Gao Shilian suppressed his excitement and hurriedly responded.

"correct."

Li Qian seemed to have thought of something suddenly: "Is the auxiliary machine still planning to take the exam for next year's third pass?"

The so-called small three passes refer to the county examination, government examination, and courtyard examination in the imperial examination. If you pass the first two passes, you will be admitted as a student.

Under normal circumstances, the county examination is held in February of the first year of the year, but in case of special circumstances, the county can also postpone it slightly, but it is necessary to ensure that the results are released before the government examination in April, so that the admitted candidates can participate in the government examination.

Gao Shilian replied: "Your Majesty, when the county examination is held next year, I will let him take the examination in Longxi County."

Due to the relationship with the vassal states, Dagan's imperial examination does not restrict the origin of candidates, and candidates are admitted in proportion to each region.

If it is necessary to take the examination in the place of origin, wouldn't the examinees from the vassal states have no way to take the imperial examination in the imperial court?This is absolutely unacceptable to the court.

"it is good."

Li Gan nodded slightly, looked at Gao Shilian and said with a smile, "However, who can say for sure what will happen in the future? You may not be in Longxi by then."

"what?"

Gao Shilian raised his head in astonishment: "Your Majesty..."

"You have to calm down the chaos in Longxi safely, and let the princes of the court see your ability and know that you are a reliable person."

Li Ganyu urged earnestly: "You don't need to have any outstanding achievements, and you don't need to go too far, as long as you are reliable enough."

Gao Shilian's eyes lit up, as if he understood something, he wanted to get up excitedly, but was pushed back by Li Qian: "But you don't need to be too anxious, you will make mistakes if you are impatient, just settle the mess within three months, Things are going to be safe."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Gao Shilian suppressed the excitement in his heart, and responded: "I must let Longxi calm down as soon as possible."

He continued to bow his head and said: "After the court meeting ended yesterday, Da Sikou specially summoned his ministers to talk about Longxi's affairs."

Da Si Kou is another name for Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. If Li Qian hadn't been a bit educated, I really wouldn't have heard it.

"Cai Jing?"

Li Gan was neither surprised nor surprised: "What did he say?"

Gao Shilian didn't even think about it, so he said directly: "Da Si Kou said that when I go to Longxi this time, the most urgent thing to do is to send back the government soldiers first, let them go back to farming, and repair the government soldiers' camp during this period."

"He also said that with his care, I will definitely not encounter any trouble in Longxi, let me stabilize Longxi as soon as possible, so that there will be no further troubles."

Li Gan narrowed his eyes and nodded slightly.

The meaning of threats in these words is very full. If there is no Cai Jing to take care of him, everything will not go smoothly in Longxi.

"You are from the Ministry of Criminal Justice, so you probably won't encounter any trouble in Longxi."

Li Gan pondered for a moment, and then said to Gao Shilian: "You don't have to take the initiative to trouble Cai Jing's party members and stir up troubles. You just need to remember who is close to Cai Jing, and I will arrange things later."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Gao Shilian responded immediately.

Li Qian looked at him with a smile: "As for how to solve the Changping warehouse, you can go back and discuss it with the auxiliary machine, but it's best not to have the idea of ​​asking the court for money and food."

"Even if it's me, I might not be able to extract money from Prime Minister Yan."

Gao Shilian's face turned bitter, but he still firmly complied.

Li Gan didn't expect him to conjure food out of thin air, and said with a smile: "Don't be too nervous, I'll tell you another way, but be careful when using it."

Gao Shilian was taken aback, and hurriedly stood up: "Respectfully, Your Majesty's admonishment."

Li Gan whispered a few words into his ear, Gao Shilian's eyes lit up, but he hesitated a bit: "Your Majesty, can this be done?"

"You'll know when you try it."

Li Gan smiled and waved his hands: "Okay, time is tight, there will be another accident, I won't keep you for dinner today, go back and prepare!"

"Remember to put on your crimson robe, and go to office in style."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gao Shilian bowed respectfully, and then slowly walked out of the hall.

Li Qian looked at his back, thought of something, and sighed softly.

Wu Meiniang and Lu Zhi also came out from the side, and asked curiously: "What's wrong with Your Majesty? Is there anything wrong with Gao Lang?"

Li Gan shook his head: "It's not a bad thing, I just thought of the last time he met me in the Political Affairs Hall."

He walked towards the table with his hands behind his back, and said with a complicated expression: "The last time he saw me, he was just very respectful."

"But this time I came to see me, apart from being respectful, I was a little more cautious and apprehensive."

"Do the two concubines know the reason?"
