Chapter 2706 The inheritance of the princely families(1/2)
The upper layer belongs to the upper layer, and the lower layer exists in the lower layer. Most people feel bad about the word class, whether they have real feelings or have a specific concept, but they just don’t care at all or have time to care about it in many cases.
After all, ordinary people are basically busy with their livelihoods from morning to night. Who would pay attention to the changes in the upper circle? Even if they know astronomy and geography like a brother in the later imperial capital, most of the time is just a talk. After all, they really say something cross-class thing can be done to affect the situation. After all, they are still a few.
Just like the incident between Qiao and Wei in Chang'an, it has actually been surging in the upper circle, which has become somewhat impetuous. Even if there is no special expression on the face, many people in their eyes are secretly sending each other and raising their eyebrows to test.
"The autumn wind is about to start to cool..." A small official stood under the eaves, holding a wooden cup of tea in his hand, as if he was just sad about the spring and autumn.
"Who said no?" Another minor official continued, and then a look of watching the show appeared in his eyes. "This autumn wind is bleak... the leaves are almost falling..."
In any dynasty, you can’t help but go to work and sting with paid tribute.
Since tea drinking culture began to become popular in the Cavalry Office, or after the Cavalry led the Chinese tea culture to a higher level, these minor officials in the Cavalry Office Office have more or less received such small benefits in the tea room.
In my spare time, I slipped to the tea room and served a cup of tea, either slugging, or just slugging, like the little official just now, which was actually some of the little fun brought by Fei Qian from later generations.
However, because of the clothes of the Han Dynasty, drinking too much tea will be a little troublesome. Not many people actually drink tea as cows. After all, "changing clothes" is really a bit troublesome, so most people hold a cup of hot tea and drink it slowly, and chew a few slices of tea in the tea cup as small snacks.
After a while, two or three minor officials came over and stood in a row with teacups, chubby like sparrows standing on a telephone pole in later generations.
"Qiao family?" A small official said disdainfully, with a little bit of a man, you are out of date, "That's all about the Year of the Horse and the Moon... Who cares about Qiao family now..."
『That's right now...haha, that little thing about Qiao is really nothing...』 Another minor official continued, 『Now this is a big deal...』
"Who? Who's the big thing?" The little official who had a little news before quickly took out a small bag of dried fruit from his sleeve, and then delivered it to the "well-informed person" like a cigarette in his later generations. "I'd like to ask my brother to give me some advice?"
"Well..." The well-informed and older official glanced at the dried fruit slightly. Seeing that it was not an ordinary product such as dried dates, chestnuts, but a few Western Regions Poetry Poetry. His eyes lit up, he coughed, took one and squeezed it in his hand, and said with a smile, "Oh, this fruit is good..."
There were many types of dried fruits in the Han Dynasty. There were many types of fruits originating from China, such as peach, pear, dates, apricot, plum, persimmon, plum, etc. Most of these fruits can be used as dried fruits after being dried or dried. The most are of course dates and chestnuts, especially sour jujubes, because they are more sour than sweet, and the price is lower.
There are also some dried fruits brought back from the Western Regions, such as walnuts, but because there is less cultivation in China, it is relatively expensive.
The most expensive thing at the moment is the Potan Fruit purchased directly from the Western Regions.
This kind of Potanic Fruit was called Piantao in later generations, and what other names are there, and what kind of fruit in Ba?
The specific time of introduction to China cannot be verified, but it was probably in the late Han and early Tang dynasties, because it was verified in books such as "Youyang Zazu" and "Lingbiaoluyi", "Potan tree is five or six feet long and four or five feet long, with leaves similar to peaches and wide, blooming in March, and white. The flowers fall and have solid shapes like peaches, but in a slant, so they are peaches. The flesh is astringent, and the kernel is sweet and sweet, and the Western countries cherish it.
Therefore, when this woman Danguo took it out, it was basically like a pack of soft China that later generations took out.
The minor official holding the soft China, well, Potanguo also gave one to the few people next to him, and then stuffed another one to the older minor official. Only then did everyone feel happy.
While slowly peeling off Potanguo, the elderly official said slowly, "Qiao, it's just an idle position. Although it is called the Grand Priest, there are several Grand Priests. Qiao is the most... So, Qiao's affairs are not big now... The big thing now is..."
The older little official looked around and seemed very mysterious, then lowered his voice and said, "I told you because of your kindness and understanding and wiseness... You can't pass it outside!"
The young clerk quickly patted his chest and said, "Brother, don't worry!"
"Well..." The older little official nodded, "Now, it's that... that one over there..."
The older minor official pointed to the direction of the Senate and Law Court.
The young clerk looked in the direction pointed by the older person and saw nothing. Well, he couldn't say he didn't see anything. Instead, what he saw still couldn't make him understand what the older person was saying, "Ah? Which one is there?"
"Hi!" The elderly sighed, and then said in a lower voice, "It's that mature skin! This time, haha, at least a layer of skin is needed! Hehe..."
The elderly laughed, and then found that the young official still could not understand his "ingenious" metaphor. He then tskated and threw the dried fruit into his mouth, and muttered, "Don't you understand this? It's called "Wei" by ripe skin...
The young official suddenly realized, and just as he was about to ask questions, he saw Zhuge Jin walking far away from the corridor. The officials at all immediately shrank their heads and scattered them one after another.
Although Zhuge Jin is not the direct boss of these officials, as long as he is a little bit mentioned by Xun You or Pang Tong, it is probably difficult for these guys to get a good assessment in the year-end assessment.
Zhuge Jin saw the actions of these people, but he was not as inhuman as those minor officials imagined. Although Zhuge Jin was calm on the outside and was not serious on weekdays, he was probably just a judge of the gentleman by his villain's heart.
The General's Mansion of the Cavalry was expanded from the original General's Mansion of the West. In addition, the land in the Han Dynasty was so vast that Fei Qian abandoned the original confinement of the Chang'an city wall, which almost equals the construction of a new city outside the old city. Yongle Weiyang, which had not been completely repaired for two hundred years in the Eastern Han Dynasty, is still continuing to repair it. The newly built General's Mansion of the Cavalry is the real core of Chang'an today.
In fact, in the front yard of the General's Mansion, they are more formal and serious. In the back yard, there are some small bridges, flowing water, ponds, etc., with scenery in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Zhuge Jin came here now, naturally because of Wei.
He just came from the Senate...
Because Wei Duan had asked for leave these two days, the Senate Law School was filled with people and had no intention of doing things. Zhuge Jin went to the Senate Law School to coordinate.
"Tiyu is here?" Xun You just raised his head slightly, and then signaled Zhuge Jin to sit down, "How?"
Zhuge Jin bowed and said, "I'm going to ask the law counselors of the law counselors of the law counselors of the law counselors of the law counselors to deal with matters first. If you have any questions, you can come and report them directly."
Xun You nodded, took another copy of the writing, and looked through it and said, "Wei Yuanzheng hasn't come back yet?"
Zhuge Jin replied: "That's right."
Xun You seemed to hear something from Zhuge Jin's tone, so he turned to look at Zhuge Jin and said, "But there is something wrong?"
Zhuge Jin pondered for a moment, then said: "Wei... seems to be quite unpopular in the Senate and Law Court..."
Normally, if something happens to an administrative agency, it will be more or less a bit disgusting. Even when it comes to handover, no matter how much you scold in your heart, you still have to pretend to be sad. For example, when Zhuge Jin arrived at the Senate and Law Court, all the officials of all sizes were actually asking if the Wei Yuan was really unlucky...
This made Zhuge Jin feel that Wei Duan had failed in the Senate and Law Court.
Xun You smiled slightly, not saying anything.
Zhuge Jin mainly worked at the Shangshutai before and had no close contact with the Senate Law School, so Zhuge Jin did not know that the distraction of the Senate Law School was not entirely due to Wei Duan's personal problems. However, I believe that as Zhuge Jin coordinated the affairs of the Senate Law School in the name of the Shangshutai during this period, he would naturally have a clearer understanding.
"By the way," Xun You gave Zhuge Jin the text he had just commented on. "Ziyu, please bring this text to Captain Huang...
"Entertain Huang's Captain of the Inner Guard?" Zhuge Jin took it and confirmed.
Xun You nodded and said, "Now it should be called Martial Arts Management..."
Zhuge Jin nodded, then seemed to think of something, so he looked up at Xun You. Generally speaking, Zhuge Jin does not need to go alone when he was Xun You's intentional explanation, either this matter is very urgent, or it is important, or both.
What is urgent and important to find the newly established Martial Arts Association?
Xun You waved his hand and said, "Nothing big is going to happen... Just be careful of Yu Weiran..."
Zhuge Jin carefully put his writing down and then bowed to leave.
Xun You first continued to busy annotating the text on hand, and after finishing writing, he looked up again in the hall, then pondered slightly, finally shook his head slightly, and sighed...
Everyone has their own worries, Wei, or Xun...
This is the aristocratic family...
On the other side, outside Chang'an City, on the banks of the Wei River.
Li Yuan was inviting a banquet for Du Ji.
The banquet place is unique, not in a manor or a restaurant, but on a boat in a river berth in the Wei River.
A fishing boat has not much space, so when Du Ji came, Li Yuan specially helped Du Ji protect the roof of the cabin, "Sorry, this place is small, be careful not to touch it..."
The boat is a real fishing boat, so the cabin is not only small, but also has a strong fishy smell.
There was only one table and two mats in the cabin, and there was a food box close to the bulkhead. There was a small stove on the stern, which was warming up a pot of something, and a faint smell of meat came.
"To apologize, a younger brother personally received Bohou..." Li Yuan said with a smile, "I don't know if the prepared dishes match Brother Bohou's taste..."
Du Ji laughed, "This place is close to nature, with a unique flavor, so why is it simple?"
Li Yuan placed the dishes on the table.
Obviously, Li Yuan himself is not a good cook. These dishes are takeaways from Zuixianlou, Chang'an City, so although they are a little cold, they are not lacking in color, fragrance and flavor. Only the beef and mutton pot needs to be re-heated, but there is a small stove at the stern, which is convenient.
The two sat down, drank and ate, and chatted.
Li Yuan talked about some interesting things that happened in the lingyi recently, and Du Ji also talked about some government affairs in Lantian. After the two of them drank a few drinks, they gradually became silent. For a moment, the two of them seemed to know how to talk about it.
The water flowed outside the cabin, and the cabin was quiet for a moment, and only the sound of Li Yuan pouring wine for Du Ji was heard.
Eight points for the wine.
Li Yuan stopped, shook his head, and then said with a slightly wry smile: "Wei Yuanzheng... has found me..."
Du Ji nodded, and did not speak, but just looked at Li Yuan, as if he was saying that he was listening carefully.
"I declined..." Li Yuan didn't go around in circles, "This matter is not my heartlessness, but...ah..."
Li Yuan sighed.
Du Ji lowered his head, pursed his lips, and placed the chopsticks on the table.
"Brother Bo Hou, this matter..." Li Yuan looked at Du Ji and said, "Wei Yuan was saying that this matter was... Then why should we attack the Chang'an gentry... I don't believe it, but...
『But I think if this is possible?』 Du Ji continued to ask.
Li Yuan chuckled, and then sat down and bowed to him, "So I came to ask Brother Bo Hou for advice!"
Du Ji returned the tribute and said, "No need to do this... I said it straightforwardly, this matter is actually four words - princes and aristocratic families!"
"The princes, aristocratic families?" Li Yuan chewed these four words.
Du Ji nodded and said, "Starting since the Spring and Autumn Period, what is the biggest concern of the King of Zhou?"
Li Yuan took a breath, "Masters?"
Du Ji nodded, "The troubles of the princes are the troubles of the aristocratic families today."
The Emperor of Zhou divided the princes to let the princes lead the four directions and jointly protect the royal family. This was the beginning of the feudal dynasty. However, those princes may have been loyal at the beginning, but with generations of change and years, their sense of belonging to the Zhou Dynasty gradually became lacking. They began to feel that if I had not provided so many taxes and if I had not created so much value, how could I have become rich in the Zhou Dynasty?
What can Emperor Zhou be considered? I will make the decision on my territory!
So the Emperor of Zhou was kicked off the throne and finally worked hard to rule the Qin Dynasty that unified the entire China. The first thing was to kill these old nobles of the Emperor of Zhou, because everyone knew that if they kept these old nobles, there would definitely be problems, and then there would be problems.
As soon as Qin Shihuang died, demons immediately danced.
