Seeing someone from a distance, Zhang Liang quickly waved his hand and winked at Wei Zheng. He walked a few steps closer and was still more than ten steps away. He bowed and saluted, "Princess, what's wrong?"
here……"
The girl raised her head impatiently, her black braided hair spread out in the sunlight, revealing a small face with a faint scowl, and at the same time she waved the stick in her hand.
Zhang Liang was immediately frightened and took two steps back.
What he told Wei Zheng before was actually correct. There were fewer and fewer "homicide" cases in Jinyang City, and the officials were living more and more at ease, so the role of the rules became more and more obvious. This was obviously the beginning of peace.
.
In fact, no one from the nobles to the common people wants to think about the precarious and chaotic days. The so-called peace of mind of the people is basically the same thing.
But in such a world, there will be no shortage of irritable people in Jinyang City, but the rules have been solidly laid out there, and the irritable people have to think of discretion in their actions.
Well, like many things in the world, some people always stand outside the rules.
The girl in front of me who often appears at the door of the palace of the Han Dynasty is undoubtedly one of them. The daughter of Turkic Khan Ashina Yanghuan, Princess Turkic Jialan, has the most noble blood of the two empires in the north and south.
This Turkic girl is almost impeccable in terms of status, and there are only a handful of people more valuable than her these days.
What makes many people feel helpless is that she always doesn't stay at home well, and will show her face from time to time. She also has a very irritable temper and will hit people on the head with a stick.
Of course, many people understand that this is already a very restrained behavior. If it were on the grassland, what she was holding would definitely not be a wooden stick, but a more aggressive whip and knife.
But no matter what, Zhang Liang would not let anyone knock him on the head. As the newly appointed Sima of the Han Palace, it would be too ugly to be chased and beaten in broad daylight.
"Princess, don't worry, he has been brought here, I will have someone send him there right now."
The girl was very beautiful, but she showed her teeth and claws in an imposing manner. She was a bit stronger than the man. She raised the wooden stick and pointed it behind Zhang Liang and said, "I have been waiting for a long time. Who is this person? Come over and let me see..."
The tigress blocked the road, and Zhang Liang was helpless. He had seen the Western Turkic princess several times from afar, but after serving as the Sima of the Han Dynasty, he never had the opportunity to meet her again.
He heard that it was almost certain that the woman would be pregnant, give birth to an heir, and become the concubine of the King of Han Dynasty. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to pay a visit and become familiar with her first.
And the person behind him is a relative of that person. If he was hit with a stick at the door and his face was bruised and bruised, it would be difficult to talk to him afterwards.
He is quite thoughtful and has improved a lot compared to the beginning. People who love to learn have made progress.
But he couldn't shirk it at this moment. He didn't have the consciousness to suffer for others, so he immediately turned around and said with a smile: "General Ashina, don't embarrass me. This is Princess Jialan of the Turks. Come and pay your respects first."
While they were talking, a group of six or seven people came over. The two leaders were dressed in official uniforms, with big sleeves fluttering, and they looked very handsome. Both of them didn't look very good. They had been quarreling fiercely before, and they were all a little moved.
When I arrived at Zhang Liang's group, I unconsciously slowed down and stopped arguing with each other.
Wei Zheng quietly moved his body, blinked and looked left and right, thinking to himself, the people here look very angry. Zhang Liang is really lying to me. If this place is a good place, how could it be possible?
in this way?
He likes to give people advice, but he has never been very courageous. If not for this, judging from his actions, he would definitely not be alive today.
Seeing these two people, the smile on Zhang Liang's face became even brighter, and he immediately clasped his fists and saluted, "Zhang Liang has met Yang Shilang and Wang Shilang in person."
The movements of the two men were surprisingly consistent. They both put their hands in their sleeves, placed them on their abdomens, and nodded slightly. Their etiquette was almost impeccable. If they hadn't been different in appearance and height, they would have thought they were brothers.
Woolen cloth.
Immediately, the two of them raised their hands and bowed again, saying in unison: "I have met Her Highness the Princess."
Like conjoined twins, the girl standing in front of the door immediately smiled, and her smile like a spring flower in full bloom brightened up the place.
"Are you quarreling again? Li...Princess Princess said that it is not an option to continue like this. We should wait until your lord comes back."
The two ministers, who were not very old but definitely not young either, were slightly embarrassed. Yang Gongren, a nobleman from Guanxi, was superior in both face and aura. He looked around and stared at everyone here.
.
The threat is self-evident. If anyone talks about what happened here, Yang Gongren will pursue it to the end. Of course, Zhang Liang will bear the brunt.
In fact, there is no need for others to talk too much, because the story between the two of them has already spread in Jinyang official circles.
As the minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Yang Gongren, apart from being busy setting up the bureaucracy, focused entirely on criminal law. He had been an official for many years and was no stranger to the criminal laws of the former Sui Dynasty. He also felt that the criminal laws of the Sui Dynasty were lenient and strict, which was very good.
, even if some modifications are needed, it is nothing more than a matter of comparing Kaihuang's laws with the criminal laws of the Daye period, and selecting the best ones.
It sounds simple, but in fact the laws in the Kaihuang period were very different from those in the Daye period. The criminal laws in the early years of Kaihuang were relatively harsh, but in the later years they became more lenient, and then in the last years of Kaihuang, the penalties became more severe.
Much heavier.
Yang Gongren was almost clear about such changes and the story behind them. However, during the Daye period, the changes in the criminal law were said to be attributed to Yang Gongren. Even several ministers of the Ministry of Punishment at that time could not explain it at all.
Under what rules does the law change?
Because only in the two or three years from Daye 3 to Daye 5, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty ordered people to rewrite the law on a large scale several times. If he was given enough time, he might be able to turn Kaihuang Law into a thing of the past.
Woolen cloth.
Therefore, according to Yang Gongren, the laws of Jin should be based on the Kaihuang Law and should be followed. There is no need to mess around at such a time.
But someone was revising the Sui laws at this time. The person in charge of this matter was Wang Ze, the Minister of Rites, who was also acting under orders. For this, the Wang family also paid a lot of price.
So differences arose. When the two sat down to discuss, they had serious disagreements because Wang's revision of the criminal law had come to an end and it was impossible to change it back according to Yang Gongren's wishes.
The two of them got into a heated exchange of words and involved Wen Yanbo, the Minister of Civil Affairs. You know, Wen Yanbo was proficient in criminal law and was also an important minister of the Han Dynasty. The two wanted to find him to seek justice.
Obviously, this peacemaker was not found correctly. Wen Yanbo was not a person who could be reconciled at all, and he was also busy with the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel.
Wen Yanbo, who joined in, was quick-thinking and sharp-tongued. He looked less like a peacemaker than a warrior preparing to charge into battle.
After a few days, both Wang Ze and Yang Gongren couldn't stand it anymore, and Wen Yanbo was also helpless. Compared with him, these two stubborn heads who insisted on their own opinions were even worse than him, if they weren't older.
Some, whose thoughts are not as sharp and clear as his, otherwise, Wen Yanbo would never have the upper hand in front of these two people.
As soon as the matter changed hands, it fell into the hands of Zhongshu Ling Chen Xiaoyi.
Chen Xiaoyi is an old and cunning person. He has already heard the rumors and feels that he is busy with government affairs and lacks energy. This kind of thing cannot be explained clearly in a few words, and it is impossible to convince people like Yang Gongren and Wang Ze with their prestige.
So Chen Xiaoyi first asked to see Li Bi and explained the whole story clearly. The final result was that the two quarrels were known both inside and outside, and the guy who might have turned their political differences into personal grudges was summoned by the princess.
Han Dynasty Palace.
This is a rare anecdote in Jinyang's officialdom, and it really adds something to talk about.
In front of these two people, the roadblock had to get out of the way, so the two of them walked in with their heads held high and unsteadily. Not far away, the sound of quarreling came over again. It would have been possible if they hadn't been so old.
He was no longer young, and Yang Gongren, who was born in a noble family in Kansai, was probably already rolling up his arms and sleeves to use his old fists at the head of the Wang family.
After taking a quick look at it, Zhang Liang didn't dare to neglect anymore. He pulled out Ashina Danai who was shrinking back tightly, threw it directly to Ashina Tianxiang, and fled with Wei Zheng.
Maybe it was because he was instructed, or maybe Ashina was too ugly, but after taking only a few steps here, the sticks fell like raindrops on the other side.
Wei Zheng looked back in fear. The stick seemed to be hitting him, making his heart tremble. He also pulled Zhang Liang's sleeves and said, "Brother Xian, walk more slowly. The people in front of you haven't gone far yet."
…”
After briefly experiencing the majesty of the female family members in the Han Dynasty, Wei Zheng was not in good spirits. Even when he passed by the girl, he smelled a quiet and elegant fragrance, and he didn't pay much attention to it, because this place is really
It's so messy...
Zhang Liang, who was standing next to him, was still explaining hurriedly, "Brother, don't panic, that is Princess Jialan, who will soon be the concubine of the King of Han. I'll just stay away from you when I see her in the future... but don't offend them."
There is not only one tigress in the palace of Han Dynasty, but almost a swarm. However, I can't tell Wei Zheng in detail right now. I think Wei Xuancheng's chances of staying in the palace of Han Dynasty are not great, so there is nothing to worry about.
And at Wei Zheng's age, he would not be as adventurous as Xu Shiji.
The inner palace of the Han Dynasty was also not small, but the main hall was not far away. Someone led Zhang Liang and Wei Zheng to the main hall quickly. There was no one in the hall, and the servants guarding the side of the hall did not lead them to sit in the hall.
Let them wait in front of the hall.
After waiting for more than an hour, the two quarreling guys in front came out one after another angrily. At this time, Zhang Liang and Wei Zheng's legs were sore from waiting.
But compared to Ashina Danai on the other side, they should actually be lucky that they just waited for a while.
