Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 95

During the lecture in Furong Garden, Xu Qing recited the 460-character "Li Weng Duiyun", which is now "The Classic of Rhyme". It became the sixth classic, and it was also called "Xu Zi", and Xu Qing was also officially called Master Xu.

As the saying goes, there is no book without a coincidence, Xu Qing did not expect that the Li Weng Duiyun, which was forced to memorize by the teacher in later generations, would promote him as the head of the literary world today, but "Master Xu" was a little scared, because he is beautiful in the woods.He didn't expect that the escape plan that he thought of at the time turned into a fairy rope to tie himself up.Fame is huge, and the family is not peaceful, gift giving, studying, crying for autographs, guarding and peeping from paparazzi...everything, countless....
There is no way to hide behind closed doors, Xu Qing became impatient, and simply said, Master clocks in at work, I don’t believe you can block me in the palace...

Xu Qing originally came to work to clock in, so he came early and went to court at the same time on weekdays.Just as he got off the carriage at Chengtian Gate, eunuchs greeted him smilingly.

"Master Xu, you came just in time, the emperor asked me to invite you to attend the Spring Festival Ceremony!"

Xu Qing pursed her lips and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Tai Miao, will our family take you there?"

Walking to the Ancestral Temple, looking from a distance, the people present were the same as the New Year's banquet that day, except that there were more royal families.The eunuch led Xu Qing to stand in a fixed position. Li Yuan glanced at Xu Qing at the front, cleared his throat, and ordered: "Let's get started..." Xu Qing clicked his tongue, this Li Yuan seemed to value him very much, alas , work hard, make friends with the old emperor, no one will dare to touch me within three years.

After a while, five drums sounded, and the gate of the Taimiao Temple opened wide.When everyone got up, candles were lit in the hall, inside and outside the door, and in both corridors. The courtyard was also lit, and the fragrance was lingering.The doctor of the officiant, the gentleman of Yaxian, and the scholars of the three Xianxians all stood up. They are all great scholars with poor scriptures, followed by Da Zan, Si Hui, Si Zhu, Si Zun, Si Yu, Si Bo, Si Ji, There are three chefs each.

After all the ceremonial staff had finished inviting, all the ministers followed Da Zan and invited them out of the second door.Li Yuan's family talked with several generations of his ancestors in the space, praying to bless the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. Siser, Guan, Drum, Siwu, Sheng, Siyong, Xiao, Chime, Chime, and sixty-six 36 dancers stand in the Up and down.

After standing still, Xiao Yu praised: "The deacons, let's do their own work!" After speaking, these musicians all held their instruments in their hands.Praise again: "Arranging shifts." Si Hui leads Si Zun and Si Yu into the seat, and stands on the east side of Danchi; leads Si Zhu to the upper hall, and stands in front of the Zhu board; leads Si Ji and Si Yu to the seat He also entered the position and stood on the west side of Danchi.Si Hui took the lead and stood under the people in the west.Xiao Yu praised: "Play music."He also praised: "Welcome to God." The boys each held incense candles and bowed to the door to welcome them.

"Let's stop."

The hall and the hall stopped together.

After the washing was completed, the officiant doctor walked up to the incense table, played the music of welcoming the gods, and led the crowd to kneel down and worshiped the gods together.The 36 children came up to dance together holding 龠 and Zhai.The dance is over.Then offer wine, jade, five grains, cooked food...

Greeting the gods and sending them off, Xu Qing, who was kneeling on the ground, was dazzled by a lot of etiquette, and his back hurt.After the ceremony, the last person will share a piece of bacon, that is, bacon. Xu Qing saw that there was a palm-width of fat meat.He didn’t dare to refuse, because the officials present all looked grateful, and Xu Qing also took a large official robe and blew his nose, wiped his dry eyes, howled a few words in a low voice, curled his lips and couldn’t pretend anymore, Hold your sleeves directly and "cry with your head wrapped around your head".The person next to him who was really crying was very embarrassed, and later comforted him, saying that the emperor's kindness is so great that it is difficult to repay it.

After the sacrifice, Xu Qing was invited into the inner hall to discuss matters.When I arrived at Shangshu's room, I saw that besides the so-called heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, Liu Zan was also there.

Li Yuan then walked in, made everyone rude as soon as he came in, and said very quickly: "The war situation in Hebei is completely over, this time we need to send officials to win the hearts of the people as soon as possible, do you have a good plan?"

"My Majesty, the Turkic thieves are never dead, and they should focus on defending the Youzhou generation..." Li Shiji said.

"Damn it, let me take [-] elite soldiers to destroy those barbarians!" Cheng Yaojin didn't take it seriously, but everyone listened to his words and just ignored them.

"Your Majesty, Youzhou is the gateway to Hebei, and the prince can keep tens of thousands of troops to garrison each... In this way, you will have the best geographical advantage in Youzhou." Li Shiji said slowly, as expected of the "Great Wall" that Gaozong relied on.

Li Yuan nodded after hearing this, and asked again: "The land is favorable, what about the harmony of people?" However, after Li Yuan finished asking, he looked at Xu Qing with a sneer.Xu Qing felt his skin itch, and returned:
"In one year, taxation is reduced to promote farming, water conservancy, open warehouses to release grain, so that there will be no famine; in two years, laws and regulations will be eliminated, thieves will be eliminated, moral conduct will be established, and the people will be orderly; , establish trust in the people, so that the people will not turn back. After three years of this, the people's hearts have been completely won..."

"Da, da, da, da..." Li Yuan kept tapping on the table, and the silence in Shang's study was indescribable.

"Oh, you boy, I thought I wanted you to learn from them..." Li Yuan pointed to everyone present, and said, "I didn't expect you to be a fool, forget it, you can be yours." Governor of Cangzhou..."

After hearing this, Xu Qing worked hard secretly, and wrote down the names of the ministers present: Li Xiaogong, Cheng Yaojin, Li Shiji, Du Ruhui, Gao Shilian, Xiao Yu, Duan Zhiquan, and a dozen others.No matter how stupid Xu Qing is, he now understands what Li Yuan means. This is because Li Yuan wants to train him to be a successor minister. Today's discussion is to make him a "relative"!

All the people present are Li Yuan's true direct descendants!No wonder, no wonder Li Yuan was able to live so well after being forced to abdicate. It turned out that Li Er didn't dare to touch him at all. Half of the 24 heroes in Lingyan Pavilion are standing here!Those ones are all at the level of a prince who would tremble if they stomped their feet. Xu Qing also couldn't figure out what Cheng Yaojin was doing here. Isn't he Li Shimin's die-hard?But seeing Cheng Yaojin blinking at the demand, he seemed to understand something. It made sense for the old fox to put a small eyeliner next to the little fox, but Cheng Yaojin's eyeliner was too strong.

Of course, there is also Liu Zan, the county uncle, Xu Qing doesn't know why he is here.Just when he was wondering, he heard Li Yuan say: "Liu Zan, I appointed you as the general manager of southern Hebei, to be in charge of [-] soldiers and horses and government affairs in the eight prefectures of southern Hebei!"

"The minister leads the decree..." Xu Qing and Liu Zan responded solemnly.

Hebei, Shandong... Southern Hebei... Cangzhou...

Could it be that Li Yuan asked me to fight against the aristocratic clan in Hebei and Shandong?Fuck me, this is not a good job!No, gentry, isn't that the rich part?And my immediate boss is brother Liu Zan, hehehe, good job, good job... Xu Qing's mind was tumbling, and a wolf-like red light appeared in his eyes.

After waiting for a few more days, the official document was issued, and all the governors of the eight states in southern Hebei were appointed in one go.Xu Qing began to pack up the things in Chang'an, chose an auspicious day, and rushed eastward like a river!
