Chapter 1894: Participate in the Law of Zhiyin and select to participate in the examination
July of the third year of Taixing is destined to be a month that will leave some marks in history. Before the turmoil at the Longshouyuan General Worship Altar has completely subsided, more incidents followed.
The oscillation appeared, and it seemed that it was preparing to send ripples to the horizon in one breath, including the Sanfu in Guanzhong and even the rest of the Dahan area.
The news that Wang Ying of Taiyuan had received a title spread to Chang'an, causing a wave of waves...
But before everyone could discuss the reason, in mid-July, General Fei Qian ordered the establishment of two new departments, the "Zhiyin Supervisor" and the "Shenlu Yuan", and announced to the world that Cai Yan was appointed as the Zhiyin Supervisor.
Supervising the construction, Wei Duan offered wine to Shenluyuan.
As the saying goes, one stone stirs up a thousand waves, not to mention that Fei Qian has already dropped several big rocks one after another. This personnel adjustment immediately caused great shock in the land of Sanfu in Guanzhong.
Although it was said that Cai Yan served as the Supervisor of Zhiyin, it attracted a lot of attention, but it was clearly marked that he would not participate in government affairs and military affairs, but was only responsible for recording and compiling history, so some people quickly shifted their attention to participating in the law.
Above the courtyard.
After all, "participating in political affairs" is the job of many people! Although it is only "participating in law" at this stage, the future is promising!
Therefore, if we talk about the focus of everyone in Sanfu, the popularity of "Shenlv Yuan" is obviously higher. It is precisely because of this that after the news of Wei Duan's conferment came out, his residence in Shifang was already a guest.
On the way out of the Jiangjun Mansion and on the way home, many people gathered on the left side of the road. They all said that they "encountered him by chance" and then congratulated him with joy...
Wei Duan was also very excited about getting this new position. He ordered his family and servants to prepare a banquet and entertain the guests. It was a great time for both the guests and the host.
Of course, Wei Duan was happy with his new position in power and regained the favor of Qiusi, but he was not without worries, such as Cai Yan. As a woman, can you just stay at home and take care of your husband and raise your children?
Let men do all the work. Women are asked to work outside, so what do men do? Go home and cook and mop the floor?
What's more, what makes Wei Duan a little unhappy is that Qiaoqi seems to want Wei Duan to endorse Cai Yan. That is to say, the first thing the Council of Laws and Regulations does is to find the correctness of women being officials in Han law...
However, Wei Duan believes that after all, there are only a few women who are as smart as Cai Yan and cannot be faulted. Most of the women are long-haired and short-sighted. If the time comes, some of them will be admitted to Zhiyin Prison.
, and then instigate these brainless generals to make trouble...
Another point is that it was only today that Wei Duan discovered that Fei Qian's slight ambiguity towards Cai Yan was actually used here! With Fei Qian's relationship, even if Wei Duan had some objections
It seems that I can’t say it for a while.
take it easy.
After the suffering in the past few days, Wei Duan felt that Qiao Qifeiqian's power was indeed unfathomable. It was really rash for him to make other plans out of sympathy. Facts have proved that the only way to do this is to follow Qiao Feiqian closely.
Only by riding a horse can you keep your power and position, and enjoy wealth and honor.
Especially after the appointment was issued, Qiao Qi asked Xianza to step down, and then showed Wei Duan some signatures and seals. Wei Duan discovered that he had been targeted by many people, and some of them were true and false.
The matter was brought to Fei Qian!
Wei Duan was also panic-stricken at that time, and didn't know how to respond, so Qiao Qi calmed him down and said: "Anyone who is a good person will inevitably be jealous of others. Xiu Fu has been a prominent family in Guanzhong for a long time, so naturally he has some old grudges... Now I know Xiu Fu."
Fu Zhongliang has a commendable character and is entrusted with important responsibilities. Naturally, he does not believe these filthy words..."
This consolation from Qi Qi Feiqian made Wei Duan even more grateful in addition to being frightened. At the same time, he couldn't help but sneer at those villains who hurt him with their words, tongues and pens. They were just superficial things, and they were too embarrassing to be used here!
As Hussar said, Weishi is a prominent family in Guanzhong after all. If he cannot hold important positions, wouldn't other surnames be even more useless?
Although he was honored with the title today, he was still very nervous from morning to dusk. He had to deal with these guests, and he was not young at all. By evening, Wei Duan was a little tired both physically and mentally, so he had to hold on.
After greeting a few slightly important guests, he excused himself and returned to the inner courtyard. As soon as he sat down and took a breath, a servant came forward to report that some guests who had heard the news came from afar and wanted to enter the house.
See you and congratulate...
After all, not all Guanzhong gentry families live in Chang'an City, so it is normal for them to arrive late.
However, Wei Duan was really tired at the moment, so he waved his hand and said, "It's already late today and he's gone. Just arrange for him to have a drink in the front yard. Don't slack off... If this happens again, don't bother him again..."
Wei Duan was actually very clear about these people's thoughts. The so-called requesting to meet in the house was second to congratulations. He was probably more concerned about the newly added positions in the Council of Lawyers in his hands.
Wei Duan can think of "participating in law" today, and it is possible to "participate in politics" tomorrow, so others can naturally imagine it, so even though it seems insignificant now, the participation in the law court may not be important at the moment, but the future is promising...
Moreover, the Senate is located near the Chang'an Huqi Mansion Yamen, which is basically equivalent to being right under Fei Qian's nose. If there is a chance to show off, he will naturally get more promotion opportunities!
If it had been before, Wei Duan would have been willing to insert his confidants into it, or simply hold up the so-called "reward the wise and avoid relatives" sign to block people. However, he had just overcome a difficult situation before and finally obtained the hussar again.
Even though he was favored, he didn't dare to flaunt it right away, giving Fei Qian the bad feeling of giving away personal favors indiscriminately, spreading his wings, and forming cliques and cronies.
The people who came all the way were naturally disappointed because they could not enter the room to congratulate Wei Duan in person, but they did not dare to force the invitation any more, so they took their seats under the guidance of Wei Duan's servants. Compared with others, they were in the crowd.
Xue Yong, who was at the back, was even more worried.
Ever since Xue Lan was convicted of falsely accusing others of rebelling and was exiled to Longxi, the Xue family was not as good as before. Although Wei Duan occasionally sent people to secretly deliver some things, after all, the family had no backbone, and outside help was impossible.
long.
Now that he heard that Wei Duan had been appointed to a high position again, Xue Yong hurried over. Since he had no carriages and horses, and he didn't know how old he was when he heard the news, he naturally arrived a lot late and could not see Wei Duan in person.
Now that he heard the voices of envy in the courtyard, Xue Yong didn't know what he was feeling.
When his father Xue Lan stopped Pang Tong in the street, others didn't know what was going on. Xue Lan didn't explain it clearly to Xue Yong, but Xue Yong also guessed that Wei Duan was behind it...
And now that Wei Duan has regained the important position of the Hussar, does it mean that Xue Yong's father can also reduce his guilt and be pardoned from exile?
Naturally, Xue Yong did not dare to go to the Hussar General's office to ask. He could only come to see Wei Duan to see if Wei Duan could lend a hand to help. In the end, he came with high hopes, but could not see him. It was really because
Wei Duan was too tired to see the guest, or did he deliberately not want to see him because he knew he was coming?
I was so worried that I couldn't even taste the delicacies. Seeing that the guests in the hall were still drinking happily, my heart was desolate and uncertain, and I felt on pins and needles, so after eating some at will, I asked Webster's servant to borrow it temporarily.
Have an early rest in Webster's private guest room.
At the banquets of the nobles in the Han Dynasty, guests were usually allowed to rest directly. However, there were natural differences in the standard of hospitality. Some people burned incense with skillful hands and served with red sleeves, while others were just like Xue Yong, with a side room and two thin mats.
Later in the night, another drunk man came in. After entering the room, he fell asleep and snored like rolling thunder.
Xue Yong had something on his mind, so he naturally tossed and turned until dawn, when he drowsily closed his eyes due to extreme fatigue. However, he was immediately awakened by the sound of morning drums in the workshop. He quickly got up and asked Webster's servant again, but
I learned that Wei Duan had already left and went to the General's Mansion to take up his post...
this……
What else can be done?
Forcing him to stay and wait for a day, even if Xue Yong had the heart, he didn't have the face. What's more, many guests got up one after another, and then left sporadically after washing. Xue Yong was forced to stay alone.
It's not a big deal, it can only be a matter of putting all the worries back home.
After leaving the Webster Gate, Xue Yong couldn't help but look back again.
The lintel of Weishi's door stands high. The decorations and words on it were carefully taken care of and wiped by servants. They are not stained with any dust. The four words "Jingzhao Weishi" shine brightly...
"ε=(??ο｀*))) Sigh..." Xue Yong turned around, let out a long sigh, and walked forward slowly.
Chang'an City has completely woken up. Under the sunshine in the early morning, the flow of people has gradually increased. Many people are carrying burdens or driving cars to and from there. There are also waiters at roadside stores shouting loudly to attract customers.
A scene of vitality and prosperity.
Xue Yong lowered his head and looked a little listless.
After rounding the corner of the square and walking forward for a while, I suddenly heard someone calling beside me: "Is this the young man of the Xue family?"
Xue Yong habitually took two more steps forward before he realized what he was doing. When he looked back, he saw a middle-aged man looking at him with a smile. The middle-aged man was wearing regular clothes. Although he didn't know the grade, he had a
Yuzhang is gentle and caring.
"Excuse me, who is your Majesty..." Xue Yong asked with his hands raised, but he didn't recognize him.
The middle-aged man smiled gently and said: "It's normal that the young man of the Xue family doesn't recognize Mr. Xue. He had a relationship with your father many years ago. Now when he came to Chang'an, he visited his old friend. Unexpectedly... this... he learned that the young man
Heading to Wei Mansion, but there is a turning point?』
"This...it's hard to explain..." Xue Yong looked at the middle-aged man's expression that seemed to be full of concern, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer. In these days, the Xue family has been met with more blank looks and cold treatment, with little warmth.
It can be said that even though they were strangers meeting for the first time, Xue Yong felt three points of gratitude in his heart...
Naturally, it was impossible to talk in detail in the street. The middle-aged man and Xue Yong stood on the street, exchanged a few words, made an appointment for the next visit to Xue's family, and then said goodbye.
The middle-aged man smiled and watched Xue Yong go away, then turned around unsteadily, bypassed several streets and alleys, and turned into an inconspicuous courtyard in the back street of General Hussars' Mansion.
, raised his head and saw a strong man sitting in the hall, he raised his hands in greeting, "I have seen your Lord..."
"Have you met the boy from the Xue family? Are you suspicious?" the strong man said nonchalantly.
The middle-aged man replied: "We have never. The Xue family will visit again in about three days..."
"Good." The strong man nodded, "If it's useful, just do it in a straight line."
The middle-aged man agreed, then hesitated for a moment, and said calmly: "This...I don't know, Master Wang..."
Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, the strong man's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice: "Now you and I are working under the Huang family! People who eat people's salary must fulfill their duties! As for other people's gossip, don't ask any more questions!"
』
……(╯>д<)╯??˙??˙??……
Wang Shu, whom the middle-aged people talk about, is stretching his head out of boredom at this moment and placing it on the table. Ever since Wang Shu scared outsiders that time, he seems to have had this problem.
In fact, the head is quite heavy. Even if it is placed on the table, a brocade cushion should be placed on the chin.
Wang Shu woke up early this morning before the ugly hour passed.
Mainly because I slept too much.
After being idle for too long, everywhere on my body seems to be restless, like caterpillars crawling, causing all kinds of discomfort.
"My dear, the morning breasts have been delivered..." This is the voice of the personal maid. You can recognize it immediately without thinking or identifying it.
Wang Shu still closed her eyes, then hummed twice and said vaguely, "I don't want to eat..."
The personal maid looked at the meal on the lacquer plate and seemed to have lost her appetite, so she put it aside, turned around and sat next to Wang Shu, and then followed suit, taking a brocade mat and placing her head
Put it up.
Wang Shu glanced sideways at his little maid, then withdrew his gaze, his eyebrows pulled down, like a long and thin "eight" hanging on his face, and after a while he said, "Go outside and ask."
,Is there anything big going on recently?』
The personal maid agreed, got up and went out.
Wang Shu's eyes followed the maid, and then he couldn't help but sigh again. For someone with a status like a maid, it is easy to get in and out. If Wang Shu wants to travel, he will definitely have to follow a group of guards behind him, which is troublesome...
After about an hour or two, when the sun gradually climbed over the treetops, the maid came back, and then she told Wang Shu about the recent events, such as generals and enco, all in the market.
When the nobles were arguing with each other, they didn't even need to ask questions. They could just stand aside and listen for a while.
"That's right!" The personal maid clapped her hands, "I heard that the Cavalry General also added a... uh, that, um, let me think about it..."
The words came to her lips, but she forgot her name. The personal maid patted her forehead in the face of Wang Shu's eyes, but still couldn't remember it for a while, and finally said as if she gave up, "Anyway, it's a new government office.
When a woman is the chief officer, it’s that... that Cai... uh, it’s the Cai family I mentioned last time..."
"That's Cai Yan, Cai Zhaoji..." Wang Shu gently patted the maid's head, "Your head is hopeless... Cai Zhaoji is the chief officer... it's really interesting..."
"Miss, why don't we go take a look?" The personal maid covered her head and rolled her eyes. She had been bored for too long and felt that everything was fun. Since a woman was the chief officer, she was of course more interested.
"Well..." Wang Shu subconsciously shook his head and said, "No! What's there to see? Now...eat, eat!" That one is just the lover of the Cavalry General, what's there to see?
The maid replied in a dull voice and went to get the lunch box.
Although the food was almost cold, the weather was not that cold, so Wang Shu and Wang Shu didn't feel any discomfort and ate every bite.
However, the Cavalry General is really...
Aren't you afraid that your subordinates will have opinions?
Or……
While Wang Shu was eating, he suddenly stopped. The chopsticks in his hands were raised in the air, and suddenly they seemed to have frozen.
"Mistress?" The maid felt strange and called tentatively.
"Pa!" Wang Shu clapped his chopsticks and stood up, "Quickly! Change clothes, change clothes! Where do you think the newly established government office is located? Let's go! Go and see, go and see!"
Personal maid: "..."
You were the one who said not to go and take a look just now, and now you are the one who says you want to change and go take a look...
"You bastard!" Wang Shu slapped the maid's head again, "I didn't go before because I thought it was pointless just to see Cai Zhaoji. Now I go because of the female official, the female official! Do you understand? You
Do you want to stay in this small courtyard all the time, or do you still have a chance to walk around? Ah?』
"(*??????)=3, yes, yes, I am still smart!"
The personal maid hurriedly went to get formal clothes and put them on Wang Shu.
Although Wang Shu was guarded by soldiers, he was not under house arrest after all, so after saying that, he waited for the guards to take a car and arrived outside the Hussar General's Political Affairs Hall...
When they arrived at the field, Wang Shu realized that he was already late. There were already many vehicles outside the political hall, and there were also many women who looked like they belonged to officials. They were wearing underskirts and gathered in twos and threes.
.If three women are equal to a hundred ducks when they are together, there are at least a thousand ducks in this area now!
The sounds of chirping, chirping, and laughing come and go.
When there are crowds of men, a single woman will be frightened when she passes by, but the same is true when a large group of women gather together, and the male officials who occasionally pass by also feel uncomfortable, and their footsteps are obviously followed by the sound of the women's laughter.
Become confused...
Although many gentry children think that Zhiyin Supervisor cannot participate in politics and is just a pen holder with little room for development, but just like the people who line up to buy luxury goods in later generations are always women. In the Han Dynasty, what luxury goods could compare with power?
More valuable? When the news spread, the interest among women among the Guanzhong gentry in women becoming officials far exceeded the original imagination of ordinary gentry men!
"Dang! Dang!"
The cloud board was struck, and the guard maintaining order shouted, "Quiet!"
Such a large group of ducks finally had their throats pinched, and they suddenly felt so quiet and comfortable...
Cai Yan, who had changed out of her usual ruqi and wore a Jinxian crown, was wearing a red and black crown. Under the escort on the left and right, she walked out of the hall. She looked around slightly, her voice was not loud, but her aura was calm, "
Today, we are ordered by the Hussar to select virtuous people, regardless of gender, and we will directly judge their talents. Those who want a position can enter the hall and try!"
After finishing the main content, the specific details were naturally reiterated by the subordinate officials. Cai Yan slightly handed over and then walked back into the hall.
Wang Shu stared at the Jinxian crown on Cai Yan's head, which was going away, and then involuntarily touched his own head, but there was no hat, and he just shook his head.
"You stay here!" Wang Si ordered her maid, raised her head and walked forward, saying loudly, "Wang's daughter, Langya, is willing to try it!"
