Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 165 Coincidence and "helping hand"

In Chang'an City, there are four guest houses dedicated to receiving foreign guests, which are located in the southeast, northwest corners.Xue Lang was welcomed into the guest house in the south, and a yard was specially designated for him. There were also pear trees planted in the yard, and now the trees are full of fruits.

As soon as Xue Lang entered, he saw Jiang Lin leading the guards, He Xiang, Xiu Niang and others saluted him: "Congratulations to Da Lang for his promotion!"

Xue Lang laughed: "Excuse me, why are you being so polite? Do you all know?"

Changjian beamed and said: "Back to Dalang, the younger ones rushed to the posthouse to report the letter after knowing that Dalang was crowned Duke. Everyone was waiting at the entrance of the inner gate to wait for Dalang to go to court. Later, a servant in the palace came to pass the message. , Said that Dalang will take a break at the Nanke Hotel tonight, so he came to wait for Dalang again."

Xue Lang nodded, looked at the crowd with a smile, and said, "It's already late today. When all the official business is over, I'll treat you to the best wine shop in Chang'an City!"

"Here!"

After a loud answer, it was Xue Lang's "hush" sound: "Quiet, it's late, go to bed!"

This time, everyone's voices were much quieter, and those who should be on duty and those who should take a rest dispersed separately.Jiang Lin lived next door to Xue Lang, so naturally he didn't have to leave, and happily followed behind Xue Lang with a proud expression on his face.

Seeing his smiling face, Xue Lang felt much better, and asked, "Ah Lin, can I visit my siblings today?"

For today's event, all the guards are in charge of You Wuwei, Jiang Lin and the others can't intervene——

For You Wuwei, this is credit. If Jiang Lin and the others insist on intervening, it will be another opportunity to rob them of meritorious deeds.Therefore, after Xue Lang knew the procedure of the event, he gave the guards a vacation, and specially told Jiang Lin to meet his newlywed wife, and sent some pumpkins and cabbages to Yue's family, and also gave him an extra two catties of vermicelli.

Jiang Lin nodded with a slight shame on his face: "I have already visited, and I also accompanied Yuezhang's family and wife to watch the process of my brother's offering of auspiciousness."

Xue Lang quickly asked: "Can you apologize for me? Because I have official duties, I can't come to visit. After I finish the business at hand, I will definitely come to apologize in person."

Jiang Lindao: "Brother's apology, I have conveyed it, father-in-law said, business is important! Big brother's official business is in the country's society, so don't be sloppy. You can visit my father-in-law's house at any time, why bother about time."

Xue Lang smiled and said, "Thank you..."

Stuck!
Facing Jiang Lin's suspicious eyes, Xue Lang asked embarrassedly: "By the way, Ah Lin, what should I call your father-in-law?"

It turned out to be because of this jam.Jiang Lin laughed: "Brother, you should address your in-law uncle."

Xue Lang nodded: "Oh, that's how it was called, I remember! Thank you in-law for your understanding."

The two brothers chatted for a while, and He Xiang replied: "Da Lang, the hot water is ready, please Da Lang wash up."

Jiang Lindao: "Brother is quite tired today, let's rest early after washing up, younger brother is on duty today, so let's go out first, brother can call me if you have anything to do."

As he said, he went out with a stick, not knowing whether it was the corner of the cat wall or the roof.Every day there are two guards on duty to guard the night.Jiang Lin shared weal and woe with his subordinates, and put himself on the rotation list, and did not get special treatment just because he was Xue Lang's younger brother and the leader of the guards.

Xue Lang naturally would not comment on this.We are all adults, and naturally have our own plans for our work, even brothers, we don't have the right to speak freely.

After soaking comfortably in a hot bath, Xue Lang went to bed.Since transmigrating to ancient times, Xue Lang seldom sleeps so late. Occasionally one night...not to mention, he was really sleepy, and fell asleep when he lay down on the bed. He didn't get too excited to fall asleep because of Duke Rongfeng.

In Xue Lang's mind, the understanding of the title is that he has a place to settle down, as long as he is more cautious in the future, with these credits, others can't easily touch him, and he is finally much more secure.As for the others... I haven't felt it yet, maybe going to see Yuci's mansion tomorrow will increase the sense of reality.

So, this is actually the benefit of having a big heart? !Or, on the benefits of having a low EQ?

A good night's sleep, if it wasn't for the call of the lotus in the morning, Xue Lang would definitely have overslept——

"Dalang, Dalang, please get up, the bell of the Japanese dynasty has already rang, if you don't get up again, I'm afraid you will be late."

There were no clocks in ancient times, so how to ensure that ministers came to work on time?
The imperial court has a bronze bell, which rings when it is time to go to court, informing the ministers that it is time to get up and go to court.Moreover, the bells of the Dachaohui are different from those of the Japanese Dynasty and the Chang Dynasty. It is through the notification of these bells that the ministers will not make mistakes and will not be late.

Xue Lang struggled to get up. Fortunately, the weather hadn't turned cold yet. If it was winter, it would be a real pain for him to go to bed this morning.After washing, I finally woke up.

He Xiang has been able to get the guest house to prepare breakfast, warm millet porridge served with pancakes, and two side dishes... The taste is naturally not as good as Xiu Niang's.However, you can't ask for too much when you are away from home.

Xue Lang praised He Xiang, and took Changjian out to court——

Changjian rented a sedan chair for him, so he no longer needed to ride a horse.After all, Xue Lang is a civil servant, yesterday was a special situation, it is better to sit in a sedan chair.

On the way to the palace in the sedan chair, Xue Lang fell asleep again in the sedan chair, and was awakened by Chang Jian when he got off the Maqiao. Xue Lang poured a cup of herbal tea and said, "Da Lang, please wake up."

Xue Lang drank a cup of strong tea, so bitter that his hair felt like it was going to stand on end, he woke up, praised Changjian, and went to court——

Today is the Japanese dynasty, in the Xuanzheng Hall.Xue Lang didn't know the way, so he wanted to ask a servant, but he turned around, but he didn't find anyone dressed as a servant, they were all guards.I wonder if the guards in the Tang Dynasty were allowed to speak when they were on guard?

Xue Lang hesitated!There is no acquaintance!That's the downside of being unsociable.Xue Lang had a bitter face, so speechless.

"Why did Youyang stay here?"

A familiar voice sounded next to his ear, Xue Lang turned his head quickly, tears almost filled his eyes: "It's great to meet the King!"

It is the king of Qin who has come to court!
King Qin wondered: "Why is Youyang like this?"

Xue Lang said helplessly: "Today the Japanese court will be in the Xuanzheng Hall, and the officials don't know the way."

That's the reason!

The King of Qin didn't play tricks at all, he just raised his head and laughed, making Xue Lang's face even more pitiful. After laughing, he explained: "Youyang doesn't know the way, so let the imperial guards lead the way, and you can go into the palace yourself." The servant is leading, why stand here!"

What the hell!

How to explain this?Xue Lang said dryly: "The guards of the lower officials when they are in foreign countries must maintain their appearance and manners when they are on guard, and they are not allowed to speak. I think the rules are the same in Datang, so it is not easy to ask."

Qin Wangdao: "The foreign country where Youyang grew up is really interesting, there are such regulations? I will ask Youyang carefully in my spare time in the future. Now, Youyang will go to court with me."

Xue Lang: "..."

What should I do if I really want to make friends with King Qin?In other words, are he friends with King Qin?
