Great Tang’s Talented Little Landlord

Li Ers birth day is the day the Imperial court Civil and Military Officials are looking forward to. There is no other reason, and there is a three-day holiday.

Great Tang civil servants are still very hard, and take a break every ten days. The working hours are still very inhuman.

Therefore, Li Erjiangs birthday is celebrated throughout the country, and he has three days off. It is the favorite of ordinary officials.

Speaking of which Li Er’s birthday is quite simple. It’s nothing more than banqueting numerous officials, meeting with envoys of various countries, and sending people from various local governments to give gifts. That’s all.

It is the descendants of Li Er who are more good at playing. Not only do they celebrate their birthdays, but they also set their birthdays as national holidays to have no shame. For example, Tang Profound Sects birthday is set as the Thousand Autumn Festival, Tang Suzongs Day is the Day of Heaven, and Tang Xianzongs Christmas is the Christmas Day, and there are other festivals that should be Heavenly Section, and so on.

In short, Li Er’s descendants, Wen Tao Wulue can’t compare with his ancestor, but to have no shame is far beyond. Regarding the emperors birthday as the Christmas day, and the rules for celebrating the celebration in the ceremonies also began with Great Tang.

On Li’s second birthday, there will be a large feast in the Tai Chi Hall for officials in the Small Official 4th Fifth Rank and above.

Different from the birthday of an ordinary person, the gift that Li’s second birthday can receive is very simple, there are only two kinds, the golden mirror and the Chenglusang.

There is a record in the “Book of Old Tang Dynasty”, “The princes and princes donated golden mirrors and inherited dew pouches, the states of the world gave feasts, and took three days off…”

Gold mirrors, Nature is not a mirror made of gold, but a copper mirror. As for the dew pouch, it is just an accessory to wear small objects around the waist. In fact, it is a metaphor for the numerous officials to bathe in grace.

In other words, on Li Er’s birthday, the gift he received was a few hundred copper mirrors, plus a few hundred sachets and purses, which was very pitiful.

Li Er not only can’t make a “red envelope gift” on his birthday, he also has to lose money.

In addition to hosting a banquet, Li Er had to have an “shooting ceremony” with the officials, that is, an archery competition. If he wins, he will be rewarded with a reward, but he will be fined for losing.

Li Wangyou couldn’t help feeling depressed when he learned of this “shooting ceremony”. Didn’t this particular me be against him on purpose?

Should such a jade-faced small master like him know archery?

The venue for the shooting ceremony is in front of the Wude Hall. An archery target was set up ninety steps away in front of the hall for Li Er and the officials to shoot arrows.

However, the archery target in Tang Dynasty was not a circle of round archery targets, but made of various animal skins, called “Hou”.

Li Er shot bearskins, called “Xionghou”, and numerous officials shot deerskins, called “Luhou”.

On the left and right sides of the target, there are also barriers to shield the arrows. Naturally, this is because I am afraid that arrows shot by a large Small Official like Li Wangyou will accidentally injure others.

It is the first time that Li Wangyou has participated in such an event, and everything feels novel.

Li Er and numerous officials were seated in front of the Wude Hall, Taichang Temple began to play music, and everyone drank and had fun. After drinking twice, Mi Tuo bowed to Li Erzuo and asked: “Everyone, you have a good spirit, please shoot!”

“Yes!”

“You can make it! “Mi Tuo passed the order, and the band played music again. Li Er got up and took the bow and arrow and fired.

This archery is not just casual shooting, it must be based on the rhythm of the music played on the side, so that four arrows are fired in a row, and the music and archery stop at the same time.

“Okay! Uncle really shot!” When Li Wangyou saw that the arrows shot by Li Er were all on the bear skin, he began to applaud the flattery, but attracted everyone One after another, no one followed him.

Li Er couldn’t help but twitched his face twice, just as he hadn’t heard him, ignored him, turned his head back to his seat.

Li Wangyou is unfathomable mystery, what do these ministers mean?

Li Er both shot, this is a hundred shots, why not you people applaud?

When he was wondering, Cheng Yaojin, the old gangster, slapped him on the shoulder: “youngster, a shameless man like you, I admire him very much, and I will teach Chumo and the three brothers when I look back.”

Cheng Yaojin’s words made Li Wangyou’s face black, fuck, don’t think I can’t hear it, you are swearing!

But Li Wangyou is still unfathomable mystery: “Uncle Cheng, my nephew is wrong? Didn’t all the arrows hit?”

Cheng Yaojin laughed heartily and didn’t answer , Just pointed at the arrow target and motioned him to see for himself.

Li Wangyou only noticed that after Li Er finished shooting the arrow, Qian Niuwei’s Lieutenant came forward to check the target. After the captain inspected, he pulled out four arrows and ran back and said loudly: “Your Majesty has four arrows, this arrow is won! This arrow is up, this arrow is to the left, this arrow is down!”

Li Wangyou just came across, so it depends on accuracy?

Getting means hitting the bull’s-eye, Yang is shooting high, and landing is low… With Li Er’s four arrows, one is in the middle? No wonder no one applauded the special meow…

Li Wangyou also had a fever on his face. This flattery, fuck, was photographed on the horseshoe. It was really embarrassing. No wonder Li Er’s face was so ugly.

He quickly covered his embarrassment by drinking.

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, this group of small and relentless Small Officials are so sincere, and even blow Li Erbai’s best will not? The lieutenant of Qianniuwei, didn’t you see Li Er’s face turned black? It was too serious to report “this arrow is rising” or “this arrow is falling”.

After Li Er finished shooting, he talked about the group of officials going up and shooting arrows one by one, the same four arrows, and they opened the bow in concert with the beat of the music.

I have to say that among the officials, there are many who have shot better than Li Er. Even if the generals are thrown away, the arrows of many Civilian Court Officials are not weak.

Even calligraphers like Ouyang Xun actually have two arrows hitting the bullseye, and the result of speaking of which is better than Li Er.

But there are good arrows, and naturally there are craftsmanship.

Li Wangyou, Xiao Yu, a pneumonia patient cured with penicillin, belongs to the extremely incomparable arrow method and is well-known among the officials.

When it was Xiao Yu’s turn to shoot an arrow, I saw one of the numerous officials stand up and said with a big smile to Xiao Yu: “Duke Xiao, I made a new poem for you today. Would you like to smell it?”

At the sight of Xiao Yu, his face turned black with anger, and he jumped and cursed: “Ouyang Xun, you bastard, you want to humiliate the old man again!”

Ouyang Xun is also not annoyed, laughed heartily, causing Li Er and the officials to laugh.

Xiao Yu and Ouyang Xun have a close relationship. The two ridiculed each other, but it’s all a joke between old friends.

Li Er has not forgotten to fan the flames: “Ouyangqing, and read your poems, let me wait and appreciate it.”

“haha, naturally should. Your Majesty Let me listen to this poem? The name of the poem laughs at Xiao Yu.”

When Xiao Yu heard the name of his poem, he rolled his eyes with anger. Needless to say, this old bastard friend wrote poems and laughed at himself. Shooting.

“The strong wind blows the slow arrow, and the weak hand controls the strong bow.

If you want to go back and forth, you should be west and east.

The earth, two hands and the sky.

If you ask who is doing this, it should be Song Gong.”

Song Gong is Duke of Song Xiao Yu. Ouyang Xun This is cancelling old friend Xiao Yu, the arrow fell in the air, but the arrow shot west but flew east.

After reading the poem Ouyang Xun, Li Er and the officials laughed heartily, and Xiao Yu shook his head silently, ignoring everyone’s ridicule, and turned to shoot arrows.

Li Wangyou also laughed with everyone. After laughing, suddenly the complexion changed _
