Eight hundred and seventieth chapters Zuo Chaogang
Summer in the north has never lacked sunshine, and it is still the same today. The bright sunshine is as passionate as fire, and the whole earth is roasted as if it is about to catch fire. Even under the shade of a tree, you cannot escape the passion of summer. The sun shines through the gaps in the leaves,
Wisps of light and heat are transmitted through...
At Tingyuxuan in Linhuai Marquis Mansion, there is a deck chair under the shade of a tree. Lying on the deck chair is a young man dressed in an unusual way.
Short sleeves, big pants, and a folding fan covering his face.
At first glance, I thought it was a modern teenager vacationing at the beach.
However, if you look closely, you can see that the boy's short sleeves and big pants on the recliner are different from modern ones. They are very retro.
The material of the clothes is also antique, made of burnt cloth, or "banana cloth" to be precise. The so-called banana cloth is made of fiber from the stems of bananas, and then soaked in warm water mixed with plant ash to remove impurities.
Use a fine embroidery needle to carefully pick out the banana stem fibers one by one, much slower than reeling, and then use the picked out banana silk to weave it into cloth. Clothes made of this cloth are more durable than clothes made of yarn.
It is light and cool, just like what Zuo Si of the Western Jin Dynasty said in "Wu Du Fu": "The rise of Jiao Ge is higher than that of Luo Wan."
The large trousers worn by young people were modified from ancient times, but they were shorter and longer than modern shorts, reaching over the knees.
The short-sleeved shirt worn by young people was adapted from the ancient Bijia. Bijia was an ancient sleeveless, collarless vest with slits on both sides that reached below the knees. The short-sleeved boy wore a Bijia that was shortened to the waist. It is a retro style.
With modern simplicity, it is somewhat similar to a modern short-sleeved shirt, with bamboo and stone pictures embroidered on it.
If you can see the back, you can find a poem embroidered on the short sleeves of the young man's back: "Stick to the green mountains and never let go. The roots are still in the broken rocks. After thousands of hardships, they are still strong, regardless of the winds from east to west, north and south."
"
The signature is Zhu Pingan.
The young man was lying lazily on the recliner, his face covered with a folding fan, and he was holding a volume of "Book of Records" in his hand, half hanging on the side of the recliner.
There is a table on the side of the lounge chair. On the table are a pot of hot tea, a set of tea cups, and a plate of seasonal fruits.
There is an embroidery stand on the other side of the lounge chair, and sitting on the embroidery stand is a baby-fat girl with buns, her hair casually pulled into a double bun, wearing a light blue gauze skirt, and a pink ribbon tied around her waist.
The girl with buns was sitting on the embroidered pier. The little fat girl was holding an embroidered butterfly fan with a bamboo handle and gauze in her hand. She was gently fanning the boy on the recliner. The cool breeze was blowing on the boy's cheeks and he was listening to the boy's comfortable hum.
Humming, the corner of the bun girl's mouth turned up in a beautiful arc.
"Uncle, uncle, did you really take off all your clothes yesterday when you were taking inventory of the banknotes?" the bun girl asked while fanning herself, blinking her big eyes, and looking at the boy on the recliner with a red face.
"Take it off, this is the third time you've asked." The young man reached out and took off the folding fan covering his face, and replied helplessly.
After taking off the folding fan, the face of the young man under the folding fan was revealed. It was none other than Zhu Ping'an, who rarely had a leisure time. The girl with buns fanning beside her was Li Shu's personal maid, Baozi maid Hua'er.
"But it's hard to believe." Baozi's little maid Hua'er blushed and bit her lip and whispered, "How embarrassing it is in front of so many people."
"What are men afraid of?" Zhu Pingan twitched his lips in disapproval.
Um.
That's right, he didn't know that there were girls present that day, not only girls, but also a distinguished eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty.
"That's embarrassing." Baozi's little maid's face turned even redder.
"Have you ever heard of a saying, it's not scary to wear different clothes and whoever is ugly will be embarrassed." Zhu Pingan said slowly.
"Ah?" Baozi's little maid looked confused, shook her head, and looked at Zhu Ping'an with her big watery eyes.
"Slowly understand it yourself." Zhu Ping'an smiled slightly, opened the "Book of Biography" in his hand, and started to read it quietly.
Yesterday evening, Emperor Jiajing sympathized with Zhu Pingan's hard work in inspecting Taicang, and personally approved Zhu Pingan's ten-day leave. A ten-day period is ten days, which means that from today on, Zhu Pingan will have ten days' leave.
Originally, Zhu Pingan was planning to find Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen, but when Zhu Pingan was busy inspecting Taicang two days ago, Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen's family leave had ended, and they began to go back to work on time. So.
, Zhu Pingan can only enjoy these ten days of vacation alone.
Of course, I can't talk about one person, Li Shu and the others are also here.
Li Shu was taking a bath at the moment. She had just played a pot-throwing game with Zhu Ping'an outside for a while and was sweating. Li Shu liked to be clean and felt uncomfortable, so she went to take a bath.
While Zhu Pingan was enjoying his vacation, the trial of the Taicang Bank Deficit Case had begun.
The court hall is located in the widest outer courtyard of the Criminal Department.
The specifications and scale are rare since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.
Yan Song, the bachelor of Huagaidian, Xu Jie, the bachelor of Wenyuange, Li Mo, the minister of the Ministry of official affairs, and He Ao, the minister of the Ministry of punishment, formed the high-level presiding officers; officials of the third rank and above in the entire capital were ordered to come to attend the hearing, and the civil servants sat
On the left, the military attache sat on the right, and more than a hundred officials almost filled the courtyard.
There are many suspects in the hall, mainly divided into two categories, one is standing and the other is kneeling.
There were dozens of suspects standing, all of whom had official status. They were Taicang's successive Treasury Department members and Chaku censors. There were nearly a hundred people kneeling on the ground, including successive Treasury soldiers and inspectors.
Taicang's cooks, cooks, accountants, etc.
In the courtroom, Chief Yan Song's face was ashen and serious, and he stretched out his right hand and slapped the gavel heavily.
To be precise, the gavel in Yan Song's hand should be called "Zuo Chaogang". It is one size larger than the gavel of ordinary yamen. Because the gavel has different sizes and patterns depending on the person who uses it,
The names were also different. In the hands of the emperor, the gavel tree was called "Zhenshanhe", in the hands of the queen, it was called "Fengxia", in the hands of the prime minister, it was called "Zuo Chaogang", in the hands of the general, it was called "Jinghudan", and in the hands of other civil servants, it was called "Zhenshanhe".
The hands are collectively called "gavel".
Yan Song is the chief minister of the cabinet, and his position is higher than that of the prime minister, so the gavel in his hand should be Zuochangang.
"Duang!"
The sound of "Sa Chao Gang" echoed throughout the court, and the court suddenly became silent, and the sound of hair falling could be heard.
Next, the entire courtroom echoed with Yan Song's angry roar.
"What you have done is something that has never happened before in ancient and modern times. When I heard about this, I couldn't bear my anger. Where is Taicang? The important place of the country, the foundation of the country! What is there? The country's main item, money and food, is related to the country, the country, the national economy and the people's livelihood.
! How heavy your responsibility is! But what have you done?! You have no intention, but you are so courageous! You are guarding and stealing, colluding with each other to cheat, and taking whatever you want. You are like this unscrupulous and thieves in the same country!"
