Chapter 162 0159 [Qingqing Zijin, leisurely my heart]

However, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to cross the horizon of class.

In the long history of thousands of years, many leaders of the uprising at the bottom have fallen on this step.

There are Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Chimei Lvlin, Zhang Jiao, Huang Chao, Wang Xianzhi in the distance, Wang Xiaobo, Fang La, Zhong Xiang, Yang Yao, and later Zhang Xianzhong, Hong Xiuquan...

There are too many to count.

Don't they have talent?
Naturally.

But in the end, due to his vision, he still failed to complete the leap of class strategy.

At this time, Dr. Tea came over with a cup of fragrant drink: "Master, the perilla drink is here, please take it slowly."

Served together with the perilla drink, there are seven or eight plates of preserved pastries.

"Guangqun Fangpu" records: "Renzong ordered Hanlin to set Shushui, with perilla as the top, agarwood second, and Ophiopogon japonicus second."

Since then, perilla drink has quickly become popular across the country, firmly sitting on the top spot of Songxiang drink.

Han Zhen picked up the teacup, blew on the hot air, and took a sip.

"The fragrance enters the spleen, not bad!"

After commenting, he picked up another piece of pastry and put it in his mouth.

Gee!
After all, it is a tea shop that can be opened opposite the government office, and the craftsmanship is really nothing to say.

Seeing the sweetness of his food, Shi Wenhui couldn't help swallowing.

From last night until now, he hasn't touched a drop of water, hasn't eaten a grain of rice, his stomach is burning like fire, and his throat is so dry that it's about to smoke.

Shi Wenhui resisted, trying to move his eyes away from the cakes and fragrant drinks.

After eating three cakes in a row, Han Zhen stopped his hands, picked up the perilla drink and asked, "Do you have a wife, children and old mother at home?"

Shi Wenhui replied: "My mother died of illness the year before last, leaving only my wife and children at home."

Han Zhen ordered: "Stay with me for a few days and be a scribe, and we will make arrangements later."

"The subordinate obeys the order."

Shi Wenhui was overjoyed, and hurriedly stood up and bowed.

At the same time, he also heard Han Zhen's implication.

These few days are the inspection period, if you perform well, you may be entrusted with important tasks.

If the performance is mediocre, it may really be just a scribe.

Han Zhen pointed to the pastry: "Eat it, don't waste it."

"Thank you, my lord, for the reward."

Shi Wenhui saluted again, then sat down and ate pastry.

……

Zhao Ting and Liu Mi's identities as court officials played a role in the end. Under the comfort of the two of them, the people in the city finally stopped panicking.

The common people don't know about it, but those gentry and elites have a clear heart.

In front of the gate of Ma's house, Liu Mi was talking happily with an old Confucian.

This old Confucian is the current head of the Ma family, Ma Yanmin.

"Don't worry, the thieves who dared to enter the city last night have all been captured. Right now, the Qingzhou Army is guarding the county and the city is as solid as gold."

"In this way, Lao Zhuo can rest assured."

Ma Yanmin breathed a sigh of relief, and invited: "Liu Tongpan has worked hard, why don't you come in and drink a cup of tea to cool off the heat."

Liu Mi waved his hand and refused: "No need, the people are panicking now, and I need to appease the people as soon as possible."

Ma Yanmin said solemnly: "Liu Tongpan is diligent in government and loves the people, which makes me admire. It is really a blessing for the people to have Liu Tongpan in Yidu County."

"It's just a matter of my duty."

After Liu Mi finished speaking, he specially reminded: "Besides Ma, remember to go to the banquet tomorrow night."

"Clumsy and frugal."

Ma Yanmin responded.

Seeing this, Liu Mi turned and left.

Looking at Liu Mi's back, the respectful look on Ma Yanmin's face gradually disappeared.

With his hands behind his back, he turned and stepped into the door.

At this moment, a figure suddenly sprang out from behind the gate.

Ma Yanmin was startled at first, and then said lovingly, "Yuyou, you're being naughty again!"

But he saw the figure jumping out, it was a young girl.

The girl was about fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a light yellow long skirt with a waist, and a long milky white gown, with a double bun, and two light blue ribbons hanging down to her ears.

On the small goose-egg face, there was still some baby fat left, and a pair of big eyes were bright, clear, and revealing a hint of agility.

The end is bright eyes and white teeth, fresh and pleasant.

The whole person is filled with a lively and fresh atmosphere, coupled with those big eyes that are as clear and agile as a deer, it makes people feel good when they see her.

The girl's name is Ma Shuyao, and she is the granddaughter of Ma Yanmin.

His father died young, and he was smart and smart since he was a child, so he was very popular with Ma Yanmin.

In ancient times, only after the Ji ceremony, women would formally choose their characters. Before that, they used small characters, that is, baby names.

And Ma Shuyao was still combing her buns, obviously not polite.

He already had an official name before the ceremony, which shows how much Ma Yanmin loves him.

The baby names of women in the Song Dynasty were almost all the same, and ordinary people were all mothers.

For example, Youniang, Anniang, Runniang and so on.

The rich and noble families will use redundancies, and the nicknames of Song Huizong's daughters are all redundancies, such as Zhuzhu and Huanhuan.

It is worth noting that the redundancies can only be used in small names, and if used in big names, it means that one's status is low.

Because in the customs of the Song Dynasty, only kabuki, concubines, maidservants, and the lowest concubines would use overlapping phonetic names for their entire lives.

Li Shishi, Shi Chunchun, and Su Xiaoju are all brothel masters in Tokyo.

There are six concubines that Xin Qiji can verify. Their names are Tiantian, Qingqing, Xiangxiang, Zhengzheng, Qianqian, and Feiqing. Five of them use overlapping phonetic names.

Therefore, in the Song Dynasty, the overlapping sound names cannot be used indiscriminately.

Ma Shuyao smiled playfully, and then asked curiously, "Grandpa, when did Qingzhou have another Qingzhou army?"

Hearing this, Ma Yanmin shook his head and laughed, "Qingzhou has only Wuwei and Zhenhai armies."

"Rebel!"

Ma Shuyao was extremely intelligent, and she immediately reacted and exclaimed.

"Be careful!"

Ma Yanmin scolded lightly.

The little girl quickly covered her mouth with her hand, blinking her big eyes, she was very cute.

The two walked through the hanging flower door and entered the study room. Ma Yanmin sat in front of the desk, watched the little girl order tea for himself, and said earnestly: "Yuyou, you will be giving the ceremony in two months, and you will be fine." After Ji, you will be a big girl, you should be dignified and dignified in your words and deeds, and you can't be like before, you must know that walls have ears."

Ma Shuyao held the tea whisk in her white and tender hands, quickly stirred it in the tea cup, and retorted: "There is no one else at home, and there are only a few servants in the courtyard."

Ma Yanmin's expression was complicated, and he said quietly: "Oh, in this world, even the clansmen don't believe it, let alone servants."

"Grandpa, please have some tea."

At this moment, Ma Shuyao ordered tea, and handed over the cup respectfully.

Taking the teacup, blowing on the light blue soup, Ma Yanmin took a sip and said jokingly: "When Youyou gets married later, grandpa will never be able to drink such good tea soup again."

Ma Shuyao was neither ashamed nor annoyed, and said with a smile: "Then Grandpa must find a husband's house closer to Yoyo, and every now and then, I can come back and order a cup of tea for Grandpa."

"You."

Ma Yanmin couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.

Seeing her grandfather drinking tea leisurely, Ma Shuyao couldn't help asking: "Now that the rebels have taken over the county, isn't Grandpa afraid?"

Ma Yanmin said calmly: "He, Liu Mi, is not dead, so why should I be afraid of him?"

Ma Shuyao asked curiously: "Grandfather, since the Qingzhou army is a traitor, how come Liu Mi and others are safe and sound, but they still have the intention to appease the people. Could it be that they have turned to the traitor?"

"good."

Ma Yanmin nodded.

Ma Shuyao frowned slightly: "After all, Liu Mi is also a judge in one state, and a senior official of the fifth rank of the imperial court, but he chose to vote for a thief?"

Ma Yanmin caressed his beard and said: "Liu Mi is greedy for money and has no literati integrity. It is normal to lure him with swords and axes, and then lure him to a thief. Besides, he also wants to bet on a treasure. It's done, it's the work of the dragon!"

From the power of the dragon?

These four words made Ma Shuyao's heart tremble, and she couldn't believe it: "Grandpa is so optimistic about the rebels in the city?"

Ma Yanmin said sternly: "Don't underestimate him. This person is not like Zhang Wanxian. He has great ambitions, knows forbearance, and knows the severity. If he hadn't dared to intervene last night, he might continue to endure. Who would know? In the land of Qingzhou, there is actually a flood dragon entrenched."

"Before, the old man was on the teahouse and took a look from a distance. The soldiers of the Qingzhou Army were all fierce and tough. They had the majesty of the Han and Tang Dynasties. They were the real tigers and wolves. The fact that there is such a strong army shows that the rebels have become popular. , now that the Great Song Dynasty has internal and external troubles, if it can occupy the general trend, it may not be possible to change the dynasty."

Ma Shuyao asked with great interest: "Grandfather, you can see the head of the thief. How does it look like? Is it as vicious as described in the drama script?"

"Never."

Ma Yanmin shook his head.

Hearing this, Ma Shuyao's gaze changed, and she suddenly asked, "Grandpa, are you going to the banquet tomorrow?"

Ma Yanmin smiled bitterly: "If you don't go, you have to go. People have given face, we can't be shameless."

Inviting you to the banquet is to save face.

not going?

From then on, there will be no Ma family in Qingzhou!
Biting her lips lightly, Ma Shuyao said, "Grandfather, can you take me with you to the banquet tomorrow night?"

"Bullshit!"

Ma Yanmin immediately straightened his face, and scolded: "The traitor is easy to get along with? The banquet is clearly a Hongmen banquet, and it is extremely dangerous. If there is a slight error in the response, the family will die."

"Okay."

Ma Shuyao nodded obediently.

……

……

to evening.

Qu Qingfeng and Lao Jiu returned to the government office.

Seeing the strong smell of blood exuding from the two of them, they knew that the house raid was not going well.

Qu Qingfeng stood under the hall, bowed and clasped his fists and said, "Report to the county magistrate, all the property of the 16 criminals has been confiscated. Please have the county magistrate take a look."

As he spoke, he took out an account book from his pocket and presented it respectfully.

After taking the ledger, Han Zhen looked through it carefully.

Gold, silver, copper coins, jade, agate and other floating wealth totaled 21 guan, more than [-] mu of fertile land, and more than [-] shops in various places.

The reason why there are so many floating wealth and land property is that Wang Fu took advantage of the collection of personal money, took the opportunity to slaughter the rich merchants in the city, and then bought the land sold by farmers at a very low price.

Why did Liu Mi only mention three rich gentry families when Han Zhen asked?

Because other wealthy businessmen with no background have already been ruined by them, and only these three families dare not move.

After closing the ledger, Han Zhen ordered: "Half of the floating wealth will be put into the military account, escorted to the military camp, and the other half will be put into the treasury. As for the good land shops, I will make my own arrangements."

"Yes!"

After Lao Jiu and Qu Qingfeng answered, he turned and left the lobby.
