And the aggressive father Zhao Yang also made a request to Zhao Wuxi: he must win the big shooting gift!

Because the winner can enter the Xiuqi Palace to accompany the monarch after the fall, either as a palace armor in black, or as a sacrificer.

The current Marquis of Jin, Jiwu, is a young monarch who has just been crowned. He has a close relationship with the Zhi clan, and is not cold to other ministers. This is natural, no one will have a good face for a group of courtiers who are thinking about digging their own corners every day.

Zhao Wuxi remembered that in the original history, because of the poor relationship with the Marquis of Jin, the Zhao clan was controlled everywhere in the Liuqing Rebellion, and the Zhi clan played a lot of black hands. What if I could approach the Marquis of Jin and improve the relationship between the Zhao family and the monarch?

After all, Zhao Yang, on the surface, is still very loyal to the country. He was very enthusiastic about seeking hegemony for Jin, and in this respect he left Fan Yang and Bank of China Yin a few streets behind.

Of course, this is only above the court, secretly, the old Zhao family did not dig into the corner of Jin.

On the other hand, as long as the Marquis of Jin agrees, it will be much easier for the Zhao family to rescue Le Qi.

In the past, Wu Xie was just passing by, looking up at the tall walls and gatehouses of the Xiqi Palace. His prospective father-in-law, Le Qi, was under house arrest. If he could successfully enter the Xiqi Palace, he would not be able to visit him.

……

In the official office area, Zhang's clerk had long been waiting outside, leading Zhao Wuxi's car to turn two alleys and enter a lilu to the south.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, scholars pay attention to the etiquette when they meet each other. For the first time, they have a strict etiquette system, and they must not be sloppy.

Theoretically, Zhao Wuxi, as the concubine of the Qing, has a higher status than Zhang Mengtan, the concubine of the doctor, so it should have been his initiative. But Zhao Wuxi wanted to be friends with him, and he owed him a favor, so he had to condescend to visit.

In fact, in the past two months, the two have communicated with each other many times through briefings, Wu Xie said that he was going to visit, and Zhang Mengtan repeatedly declined. As usual, after three resignations, he was officially invited to his home to talk about chess.

The Chinese people have been paying attention to the word "kindness" since the Yin and Zhou dynasties.

Therefore, Zhao Wushi's hair is always neatly combed today, tied with black brocade ribbons, and draped behind his shoulders. Wearing a black and white gentleman's field hunting pattern dark clothes, a leather belt around the waist, a white jade ring with red brocade and yellow tassels on the lower skirt, and ge cloth shoes.

This has the dress of a bandit gentleman, how formal it should be.

Zhou Li stipulates the etiquette of meeting: "The lonely person holds the leather silk, the noble person holds the lamb, the doctor holds the wild goose, the scholar holds the pheasant, the common man holds the zealot, and the industry and commerce hold the chicken." In later generations, Chinese people will always bring gifts when they visit relatives and friends, and that's how they came.

Zhao Wuxi did not have a position yet, so he was usually regarded as a first-class doctor, while Zhang Mengtan, the eldest son of Zhang's concubine, was regarded as a first-class scholar. Therefore, when Zhao Wuxi came to the door, he could not hold a wild goose, but a pheasant, and treat Zhang Mengtan with the standard of a soldier.

As a gift for scholars to meet, live pheasants are used in winter and dried pheasants are used in summer. Pheasant, also known as the wild rooster, is the meaning of "when you have a relationship, you don't have a relationship".

It is now the midsummer season, and meat is not easy to preserve. At this time, it is necessary to send air-dried pheasants, that is, "tu" as gifts. This "倨" was beaten by the policeman Zhao Wuxi on the mountain half a month ago, pickled and air-dried, sewed his body with silk cloth, and tied his feet with ropes.

Wu Xie got out of the car outside Zhang's Lilu gate, because his status is higher than Zhang Mengtan, so he doesn't need to hold the pheasant himself along the way, but can be handed over to his entourage.

Zhao Wuxi came to Xin Jiang Zhong today, and the entourage he brought was Jing, a savage. Jing Wei is a cautious and low-key person, and he is currently the second Sima, and gradually he is highly regarded by Zhao Wuxi.

He let Jing walk on the street with the pheasant in his arms. The children of the scholar-bureaucrats who passed by in Lilu looked at him and recognized his Qingzi's dress. They all knew that he was visiting relatives and friends. They all saluted and talked to each other:

"In one day, Zhang Meng was able to get two noble sons to visit in person one after another... It's amazing."

Wu Xie followed Mr. Zhang and walked into an alley, but the one who arrived first was the residence of Doctor Tongjiao's house.

An old acquaintance, Le Fuli, was dressed neatly and waited outside his house. He and Zhao Wuxi had become **** who fought together and were punished together. Naturally, there was no need to be too modest.

Seeing that Le Fuli was limping, Zhao Wuxi smiled playfully: "I haven't seen you for two months, but Lezi has lost a lot."

Le Fuli smiled disapprovingly. If Zhao Wuxi hadn't sent someone to intercede with his father, he would have been treated even worse.

The reason why he waited here was because theoretically, he wanted to be the "media" for Zhao Wuxi and Zhang Mengtan to meet each other.

Shi Yan: "The bandit is in the period of my guilt, and the son has no good intentions." In the Spring and Autumn Period, not only men and women need a medium for marriage contracts, but also official visits to make friends, regardless of whether the two knew each other before.

"Zhao Zi, please."

He walked half a step behind Wu Xie, then leaned over slightly and said, "I heard that the gentleman is going to visit Zhang Zi today, so Wei Ju also came to join in the fun, and now he has entered Zhang's residence."

"Oh?" Zhao Wuxi was stunned, what did that guy who pretended to be a pig eat a tiger do?

After walking two steps, next to the mansion of Dr. Tong Qiao is Zhang's mansion in Xinjiang.

Compared with the magnificent and splendid Tongluo doctor Le's mansion, Zhang's mansion looked a little shabby, and the open door was only painted with a layer of paint.

The Zhang family has held the post of "Hou Yan" in Zhao's army in all dynasties. Zhang Mengtan's father is now heading south to King Qin with Zhao Yang, so the family should be headed by the eldest son Zhang Mengtan.

Sure enough, Zhang Mengtan was also wearing a deep crescent-white coat, wearing jade Jue, his hands tucked into his wide sleeves, and respectfully waiting outside the door.

The servants of Zhang's residence had been waiting on tiptoe for a long time, only Zhang Mengtan was still unhurried, and only slowly descended the steps after seeing Zhao Wuxi and his group turning around the alley and appearing.

Under Le Fuli's "recommendation", Zhao Wuxi also straightened his clothes and stepped forward.

According to the process, his lines were as follows: "Yu Jiu wanted to see Zhang Zi, but no one communicated. Now Le Zi conveyed Zhang Zi's intention, so Yu came to visit."

As the master, Zhang Mengtan's reply was: "Lezi was ordered to go to the meeting, but the gentleman condescended to come first. Please return home, and the gentleman will go to see you."

After a few pushes and greetings, Zhang Mengtan went down the steps and bowed twice, and Zhao Wuxi slightly bowed his hands in reply.

After bowing, Zhang Mengtan pressed his left hand over his right hand, tucked his hand into his sleeve, placed it on his forehead, and bowed towards Xun Zhen. After the ceremony, he straightened up, and at the same time raised his eyebrows with his hands again, and then put it down. This is a process of bowing to the host.

Zhang Meng talked and walked in from the east. Zhao Wuxi took the dry pheasant offered by Jing, holding it in both hands, and entered from the west. Entering the court, the two stood still, and the pheasant without a shirt turned his head to the left and presented it to Zhang Mengtan as a gift.

The reason why the pheasants could not be presented in the hall is because the monarch received the salute in the hall~www.readwn.com~ scholar-officials cannot be compared to the monarch.

Zhang Mengtan said his thanks again and again, and finally accepted it, and expressed his gratitude to Zhao Wuxi for his condescension.

This is a complete set of etiquette for the host to welcome and greet guests. At this point, it has finally come to an end.

Zhao Wuxi breathed a sigh of relief, his mind was really too complicated.

However, it is also a way for people of this era to express their sincerity in making friends. If they do not meet, they can "kill for the king" like a pheasant!

After this process, the relationship between the two became closer. Zhang Mengtan invited Zhao and Le to enter the room.

A banquet has been set up in the hall, with a total of four cases and four seats.

Wei Ju had indeed arrived. He was wearing a dark crimson coat and was sitting at the top of the guest seat on the west side.

Seeing Zhao Wuxi and others coming in, Wei Ju stood up to greet him, showing a simple and honest smile, and said in a hypocritical manner, "Zhao Zi made a big noise in Xinjiangren City two months ago and beat up Fan's clerk, why didn't he call on him? We? Ju can't wait to see Zhao Zi, so he came here to harass, Zhao Zi won't blame me?"

Zhao Wuxi hummed in his heart, but on the surface he could only pretend to be a snake. Wei Ju's purpose for coming here today, he had already guessed it closely.

He secretly said in his heart: "In the original history, Zhang Mengtan also belonged to Zhao Xiangzi, and talents were scarce. You Wei's son, eating Lu Xing and Linghu Bo in the bowl, still looked at the pot. Zhang Mengtan, who was in my midst, actually came to fight with me? How unreasonable!"
