Extra 6: Events during the Changhua Years (Part 1) (Group Portraits)
In the third year of Changhua, the four directions returned to their hearts, the world was at peace, the weather had been good for many years, no major disasters had occurred, and prosperity had begun to appear.
Shao Shantong, the governor of Jiangdu, has been very busy recently. In addition to regular official duties, he also has to prepare a wedding gift.
King Jin Chengyuan of Dongluo next door is about to marry his princess, and the congratulatory gifts from the Dasheng court are already on the way. Jiangdu, which has the most business contacts with Dongluo, needs to prepare another one. This is the intention of the capital's sage. As for the specific gift list, Shao Shantong will draw up it himself.
Shao Shantong shaved off many roots of his mustache. This gift is not easy to handle...
First of all, you can't do things half-heartedly, otherwise it will be difficult to communicate.
It is best to demonstrate the strength and magnanimity of a great nation, but it is not advisable to delve too deeply into it, otherwise it will easily be suspected that he intends to curry favor with Dongluo... It would be bad if His Majesty mistakenly thinks that he has treason, after all, he is here
The case is relatively solid in this regard.
Under Shen Sanmao's instructions, the silk weaving workshop, porcelain making workshop and even the smelting workshop sent many exquisite objects.
After that, Han Zheng, the shipping manager, also had many rare and rare treasures brought from overseas.
Shao Shantong did not rush to take a look, but invited Chu Changshi and others to discuss together. After listening to the opinions of Chu Changshi and others, Shao Shantong nodded from time to time, or said "not bad", or responded "no", or praised.
A word of "Best regards, sir".
If someone asks: "What does the governor think?"
Governor Shao smiled kindly and said, "I have no experience, so I would like you to brainstorm ideas."
What did he think? He looked down like this——
From the workshop, His Majesty's people.
From the Shibo Department, one of His Majesty's people.
Chu Changshi, your Majesty's man.
The people in the first seven halls are His Majesty's people.
This is nothing. If he goes out again and takes a look, he will see the Emperor's confidants everywhere.
Shao Shantong couldn't help but feel like he was surrounded by layers of people.
Governor Shao, who was surrounded to the extreme, was lying on the couch at night, thinking over and over again, but suddenly he sat up like an enlightened man and murmured: "...I am also one of His Majesty's!"
He was determined to look after His Majesty's house, and he had no intention of rebelling... He should have joined everyone without any hindrance!
So what exactly has he been secretly guilty of these past three years?
Shao Shantong frowned and questioned his heart, and slowly came to the answer... His symptoms were probably because his heart had been corrected, but his brain had not yet been able to fully adapt to the change from being rebellious to being loyal. This is similar to the transformation of a living person.
Governor Shao slapped his forehead and warned his accustomed mind - stop being sneaky and be generous to me!
Governor Shao, whose feelings were gone due to his epiphany, felt particularly comfortable and relaxed when he saw Chu Changshi and others the next day - who was this person who was supervising him? This was clearly a witness that he and His Majesty were in harmony with each other.
The magnanimous Governor Shao overcame everyone's opinions and quickly decided on the gift list to be sent to Dongluo. Immediately, someone went to the Qianqi Hall to invite the money chief responsible for military affairs to come over. When sending gifts to foreign countries, troops would be dispatched to escort him.
Messenger, this matter needs to be reported to Kang Zhi, the general of Mingwei who is in charge of military affairs in Jiangdu, through the military department of Qianya.
Chief Qian in the first seven halls put down what he was doing and immediately went to see Governor Shao.
Mr. Qian is from the Wuxing Qian family, which is of the same clan as Mr. Luo but has different origins.
Speaking of which, after the publication of the "Official Document of Sacrifice to Luo" written by the Crown Princess, the whole country was shocked and in an uproar, and Jiangdu exploded in addition to the surprise and uproar.
Among them, the ones who were most thoroughly bombed were undoubtedly the Qian family.
At that time, a colleague from Jiangdu found a member of the Qian clan and sighed: "It turns out that Mr. Qian is Duke Luo... On such a big matter, my dear brother and the entire clan were able to keep it secret and hide their identity for Duke Luo."
, it is really well-intentioned...and the courage, determination and integrity in it are beyond the comparison of ordinary people!】
Three souls and seven souls were blown away, and they were floating in the air, unable to tell the difference between east, west, north, south, and the way forward: [...]
I remember that when they came to Jiangdu to recognize their relatives, the young man Qian Yu once murmured - why did Uncle Nineteen wear a mask? Could he be a fugitive?
Who would have thought... that this damn boy was right by mistake!
The Qian family had unknowingly become accomplices in harboring fugitives and forging their identities.
And the good news is...the emperor who is about to ascend to power is also an accomplice.
At that time, the dead boy Qian Yu once again made a shocking statement - [According to this, our Qian family is not the emperor's ally? 】
Qian Yu then lamented, originally thinking that it was just a picture of "rich in the mountains with distant relatives" that was loyal to human nature, but who knew that it turned out to be a dangerous pursuit of wealth and wealth...
It can be said that this optimistic approach is a blessing in disguise.
The adults of the Qian family can't help but feel worried and confused. Can this vague wealth really fall on them?
Then, this wealth really fell firmly on their heads.
Grandma Jin sent a message from Beijing and prepared generous gifts to Qian Zhai in Jiangdu, thanking them for their "blessing and help".
After the incident spread, there were all praises for the Qian family. The noble manner in which Mr. Luo died for the country and the people also made the lintel of the Qian family shine brightly and noblely.
Everyone regarded them as beings who shared joys and sorrows with Duke Luo.
But only they knew in their hearts that it was not bitter at all. They were like a nest of ants who smelled the sweet taste and just came to eat it.
Three years have passed in a blink of an eye. With this relationship and good reputation, the Qian family has taken root in Jiangdu. They often have contacts with the Duke of Qi State in the capital. Granny Jin is generous and transparent, and never
Speaking of their selfish desires, Luo Ze and Qian Yu also became close friends like brothers.
And if someone tries to inquire about the inside story of Luo Gong’s money-making family tree, they can often only sigh: “It’s all by chance...”
Other than that, there really isn't much else I can say.
The Qian family was secretly grateful to the Luo family, but they could not help but feel ashamed. They could only do their best to repay the Luo family, serve the court and the monarch.
After meeting Governor Shao, Chief Qian quickly returned to the front office and began to draft the request for instructions.
In the third year of the new king's accession to the throne, the official affairs of various places were adjusted and settled, everyone performed their duties in an orderly manner, and the chaotic scene in the first seven halls that was so busy that no one touched the ground was basically gone.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But Jiangdu’s academic staff are getting busier and busier.
Wu Er Yuan wants to build several branches. Various complicated and trivial matters divide Zheng Chao and others into two categories, one is too busy and wants to hang himself, and the other is too busy and has no time to hang himself.
This busyness has not affected the students, and their studies are proceeding normally.
On this day, when noon was approaching, the bronze bell for the end of classes was rang, and the students in the various schools of Wuer Academy were like birds coming out of their nests, chatting and laughing as they came out together.
In a classroom of the medical center, a gentleman in charge of teaching also came out. All the medical students bowed and avoided him when they saw him, and did not dare to come near to speak.
This gentleman, whose surname is Fan, always has a numb and cold face. He is very good at treating poisons and never interacts with others.
Fan Ou was thrown here because of His Majesty's will.
Regarding the disposal of Fan Ou, who had not been put to the intended use in the end, but had been used repeatedly, Li Suining's idea was very casual. He could kill or not kill.
Fan Ou is proficient in poison techniques, and medicine and poison are connected. Just as snake venom can kill people, it can also save people. A top poison technique master like Fan Ou is also a very rare talent in a certain sense.
Then take it to a medical center and try it first, just in case it works.
Fan Ou's attitude is also very casual.
In the past few years, he tried to escape more than once but begged for death, but Li Suining pinned him down every time. Whenever something happened, he would drag him out to exploit him. The number of times was so many that even Fan Ou became numb to hatred.
But Fan Ou always remembered his old master Li Yin.
Until Li Yin's crimes were made public, Fan Ou was calm at first, but the more he heard about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He knew about the killing of the Huainan King and secretly aided Xu Zhengye, but... collaborating with the Tubo enemy?
So crazy?
Fan Ou believed that he had no sense of right and wrong. Although he did not hate his old master because of this, he was somehow disenchanted with him.
Li Yin was beheaded in the autumn of last year, and Fan Ou was at a loss for a while, in a state of mind between living or not living.
As for escaping? The whole world belongs to that person. Is there any point in escaping?
Numbness: I have been numb in my life, so let’s stay numb like this for now.
Unlike Fan Ou who smells like death, it is now the time when all things are blooming in spring, and the students in the Agricultural Science Hall are the busiest group of people in each hall.
Yuan Hao, who has grown into a real boy, is leading a group of students to inspect the growth of Sumai in the farmland outside the city.
At the end of last year, Yuan Hao said to his disciples: "Looking through the history books, in the disaster year, half of it was war and half of it was hunger and cold. The Ming Dynasty was prosperous. Now the war has stopped, but the hunger and cold have not stopped. This is what we farmers are doing."
A long battle.]
Such words made many students who had retreated to the Agricultural School temporarily to browse the books in the academy because the nearby schools were full, actually felt a rush of blood burning, and they didn't understand at all.
The word "agriculture", which is not elegant and high-class, has a new understanding.
When Yuan Hao and his party were walking out from the fields, a petty official ran over and said to Yuan Hao: "Master Han Zheng of the City Shipping Department has sent someone to invite you. He said that the caravan that went to sea years ago has returned and brought back
I have found new seeds, please Mr. Yuan Xiao and others to go and identify them!"
When Yuan Hao heard this, his eyes lit up and he ran quickly.
The spring sun hangs high in the sky, and the wheat fields move with the wind, like undulating waves.
"Look at how strong this field is. I wonder how much manure has been poured on it?"
A group of carriages and horses heading south arrived outside Jiangdu City. An old lady in the carriage looked at the neatly cut wheat fields through the car window and couldn't help but sigh.
The young woman in the car looked helpless: "Grandma... please stop mentioning these two words."
Along the way south, whenever my grandmother saw anything that looked good, she would definitely say, "It looks like it has been poured with dung." She was afraid that when she saw people from Jiangdu later, her grandmother would also say such a thing, so she really wanted to
He found a crack in the ground and crawled in, then escaped through the night and returned to Yingzhou.
"What's going on!" Mrs. Shi said with a smile on her face: "You're so good, why don't you let others praise you?"
Yuezhi, who was feeding her two-year-old granddaughter with snacks, just pursed her lips and smiled.
Shi Wen opened the car curtain and looked out: "It's time to arrive!"
Shi Wen was very anxious - she wanted to see with her own eyes what Kang Zhi's "one-of-a-kind fiancé" looked like in her letter, and whether Kang Zhi was bragging.
At this moment, Kang Zhi, who was in the Jiangdu Military Mansion, was sitting in the hall, frowning anxiously and holding her chin, thinking hard.
Ever since Kang Cong and Shi Wen got married, and after the new king ascended the throne and Kang Zhi settled down in Jiangdu, the Yuezhi took care of her daughter's life-long affairs from a distance, and from time to time people would send many portraits to Kang Zhi.
.
Kang Zhi was so annoyed that she didn't like the men in those portraits - she had seen the Prince Protector and the Prime Minister of Wei, but now she just felt that these ordinary men were unpalatable, and she had the guts to kill them if they got involved with her.
The feeling of suffering a big loss.
Kang Zhi always strives for the best in everything, and because she was provoked by Shi Wen's letter, she lied in her reply that she had found a handsome man who was more handsome than Pan An, and that she would not worry about them.
Unexpectedly, a month later, when she received the letter again, her mother-in-law actually said that she was already preparing to leave for Jiangdu...Shi Wen also came! Mrs. Shi also came, and she enthusiastically said that she would help her arrange the marriage!
Mrs. Shi couldn't hold back her desire to go to Beijing to meet the Holy Spirit. This time she planned to arrange Kang Zhi's marriage and then go to Beijing from Jiangdu.
When Kang Zhi received the letter, the three of them and their children were already halfway there.
Fortunately, I came all the way to enjoy the mountains and rivers. Otherwise, I would have arrived faster. I was afraid that when Xin was on the front foot, others would be on the back foot, and Kang Zhi would really be caught off guard.
But even so, Kang Zhi was not ready yet. Knowing that Aniang and the others were going to the city today, she was worried about what excuses she would use later to avoid being exposed and ridiculed by Shi Wen.
At this time, a female soldier entered the hall and said that Gu Erlang was here.
Gu Erlang is still in charge of Jiangdu's external affairs, but he has been promoted and is now the head of the Jiangdu Tongguan.
Gu Erlang, who was still dressed exquisitely, walked into the hall and handed Kang Zhi two folds of documents with a smile. One fold came from the seventh hall in front of the Governor's Mansion and was handed over by him. The other fold was invited by his co-worker, saying that it was
The inspection envoy Tang Xing is about to arrive in Jiangdu, and the Joint Hall is preparing to go to greet him. At that time, he will need to mobilize troops from the Military Office to accompany him.
They were all trivial matters. After Kang Zhi heard what he said, she didn't rush to read the document. She raised her chin and motioned for him to put it on the small table aside.
Gu Erlang obeyed the instructions in a polite manner, and Kang Zhi kept staring at him and looking up and down.
Gu Erlang was a little frightened, but he couldn't help but straighten his sleeves. Well, he knew that his newly made robe would match his appearance very well.
The next moment, Kang Zhi slowly stood up from the chair.
Although Kang Zhi was not as tall as an adult man like Gu Erlang, the former had a powerful aura and wore a short sword on his waist. Gu Erlang often saw his power and power, so he was unavoidably worried at this time.
"You...what are you doing?" Gu Erlang asked as he backed away.
As he was retreating, he bumped into the armchair behind him, making a harsh sound. When Gu Erlang's feet were in a mess and he almost fell over, Kang Zhi quickly leaned forward and stabilized the chair.
Gu Erlang fell down in the chair and was half-circled in front of him by Kang Zhi. The former couldn't help but widen his eyes and hugged his hands tightly in front of him: "Kang Ani, you..."
