No one dared to provoke him anymore. Yun Ye, the commander of the Lingnan navy, and Li Yuanchang, the king of Lu, fought on the canal for the two singers. In the end, Yun Ye used a strong ship and a sharp weapon to beat the king of Lu and fled, and he fled like a rat.
The explosive news immediately spread to both sides of the canal. There were marquises in the Tang Dynasty who dared to attack the prince, but this was the first time that weapons were used in order to win fans.
The local observers believed that this was purely a shame for the imperial court and was indiscriminate, so the documents of impeachment flew to Chang'an like snowflakes. The memorial did not favor anyone, and it did not care who was right or wrong. It only hit one point, that is,
It is indecent and has no noble decency, and the emperor is asked to punish these two people together. Anyway, they are both scum, and there is no need to care about the right and wrong.
The horse was much faster than the boat. Before Yun Ye and Li Yuanchang entered the capital, the capital already knew that there was another conflict between the two. The kind-hearted old Qin sighed, only thinking that Yun Ye was a troublemaker, and he was the one being targeted.
It is really too much for the few families who have stayed in Chang'an as the mainstay.
Yuchi Gong clapped his hands and laughed, thinking that this is a man in the army. If anyone steals his own things, he will beat them up. When he gets angry, the King of Heaven will not let him go. He thinks that Yun Ye learned this from him.
Li Er put down the memorial, rubbed his temples, and said to himself: "Boy, you really worked hard to resign from the position of naval commander. Hehe, you also have times when you feel uncomfortable? Just continue to be a navy commander.
Commander, I hope you can get more good ships."
Li Tai's eyes were shining with a sinister light. He was holding two glass bottles in his hand. One bottle contained four or five fiery red ants, and the other bottle contained a spider the size of a baby's fist. He looked at
The two restless animals sighed, put the spider back on the shelf, put the ants into a small bamboo basket, and walked out of the academy gate. They were ready to return to Chang'an and attend the royal gathering.
There are a lot of happy events in Chang'an City these days. News of the victory of the army ahead comes frequently. The red-feathered messengers shout for victory and cross Zhuque Street. They can no longer attract the attention of the people. They just shout "good" and continue to do what they should do.
, victory is not surprising. It would be rare if unfavorable news comes one day. Datang never loses a battle.
In order to pray for the Supreme Emperor, His Majesty specially decreed that there will only be two types of death penalty from now on, that is, hanging and beheading. Only the most evil and evil people will be beheaded. The rest is hanging, which means setting up a pillar and tying the rope to the prisoner.
Just hang it around your neck. There is no blood, unlike before when blood was everywhere on the ground. Not to mention the stench, it also attracts flies. It’s not good, it’s better to hang it. Many people are already imagining the spectacular scene of Suzaku Street being filled with dead bodies.
.
People don't care how many prisoners die. Nowadays, few prisoners die in a year. It will take several generations of efforts to fill Zhuque Street. But the Dingkou tax is gone. This is good news worth celebrating. In the past, my family always
There are two or three waiters. The one with the beard is called the waiter, and the one who is still using urine and mud is also called the waiter. There is no need for it now, so you can rest assured that the bold third, fourth, and fifth waiters will line up.
Some regulations in Chang'an City are quietly loosening. Since the last special curfew was one hour later, the two counties of Chang'an have always followed this decree. Those upright and old-fashioned officials also seem to have forgotten the custom of curfew at sunset, and also like to set a curfew at sunset.
After sunset, it is also good to let the servants carry lanterns and go around the east and west markets to eat.
The theater in Xinghuafang had a new song. I heard it was a story about two men and women who had an affair and turned into butterflies. The elderly mother-in-law spat bitterly and told the eldest daughter and daughter-in-law in the family, what will happen next.
It's a shameless ending. It's flattering to turn into a butterfly through adultery. Why not turn into a pig?
Whether she turned into a butterfly or a pig, it was all a trivial matter. Our young ladies, who were allowed to go to the theater to receive education on women's virtues by their family adults, came home and all of them burst into tears and sang squeaky songs.
Two lines of play, it seems that he has been taught a lot. There will be new music next time. If he goes again, he will go with other sisters at home. I don’t see that the girl at home is now holding her chin and looking at the sycamore tree outside the window all day long.
She was in a daze, her favorite swing was no longer swinging, so the girl should quietly wait for her husband's family to carry her in a sedan chair.
People who did not seize the opportunity to buy a house in Xinghuafang are now beating their chests with regret. When the pear blossoms bloom in spring, Xinghuafang is so beautiful that it makes people enchanted. The clear water, red buildings, white flowers and green grass are like being in the kingdom of God. Look again
The green courtyard of my home is as gray as an antique. They planted pear trees, or they moved the whole adult pear tree. When the pear blossoms fall, the wind blows, and it feels like snow is falling.
There are only elm trees in front of the door. When the wind blows, only dry elm coins all over the world fall down. It has to be swept several times a day.
Wei Zheng always likes to hang out in Xinghuafang when he has nothing to do. He can see every change here. Several big men at the gate of Fangshi bowed down consciously when they saw Wei Zheng. How could the prime minister not respect him?
, although this person likes to walk around in old clothes, but his identity is there and cannot be ignored.
Looking at these neatly dressed people with clean hands and faces, Wei Zheng couldn't associate them with gangsters. These vicious people now carry short sticks in their waists and patrol Xinghuafang every half an hour.
When he saw something dirty on the ground, he would pick it up, when he saw a child fell, he would help him, and when he saw an old man he would help him under his favorite pear tree. What surprised Wei Zheng the most was that when they picked up a blond hairpin, they would pick it up.
Post a notice asking the owner to come and collect it.
The environment can change people. This is what the steward of the Yun family in Xinghuafang told Wei Zheng. Picking up a hairpin and sending it back is not a big deal. Compared to his lifelong job, that hairpin is nothing. Nine hundred coins per month
The salary is enough for him to get rid of his bad habits, enough for him to ignore the golden hairpin. As for the old friends who come to contact him and prepare to cooperate with each other, these friends are now lying in the government office with broken legs.
Eating prison food in jail.
Having a dignified job not only makes me feel better, but also makes my parents and family happy. In the past, dogs didn’t even smell the stinky people, but now there are matchmakers coming to the house and whispering to my parents about how good the ladies of this family are at embroidery, and how good the embroidery work of that family is.
The food cooked by the little lady is so authentic, and the parents are also looking at it with smiles on their faces. In the past, they were not afraid of the sky or the earth, and they were not stingy. Now they are shy. They ducked into their own rooms and hid behind the door as soon as they lowered their heads.
Eavesdropping and making his parents and matchmaker laugh is the reaction of a normal unmarried man.
This autumn, the imperial court's talent promotion ceremony will begin. All the literati from all over the world will gather in Chang'an to prepare for the imperial examination. The written papers are of no use. They are all sealed and their names will be blurred. Not yet.
I only know who the examiner is, and I only know that the chief examiner is Fang Xuanling, and the deputy examiner is Changsun Wuji. The rest of my eyes are dark. In the past, the more generous examiners would tell the candidates in a vague way what the test was, but this year,
No one knew that the examination questions were still in His Majesty the Emperor's study, and those scholars did not think they had the ability to get the examination questions out of the palace.
If they can't do it, it doesn't mean that Li Tai and Li Ke can't do it. The two brothers were called to the study by His Majesty the Emperor. Then His Majesty the Emperor mysteriously opened the examination questions and asked his son to make one first and then show it off.
, his son is not qualified to take the college entrance examination. He is very curious about what kind of level his son has and whether he can get good results.
"I am old and I am old, and am I young and am I young?" Father, my child has done this question no less than ten times. Among them, the idea of Datong proposed by my child was even exhibited as a model essay in the academy by Mr. Li Gang. This question
Questions about children have long since run out of new ideas.
It's Han Xin's military question again, but with a different twist. Han Xin becomes a shepherd, and the soldiers become chickens and sheep. There are no columns and extra legs and feet. It becomes a chicken and rabbit in the same cage again. It never changes.
Zong, fifty-six chickens and eighty-three sheep, is the answer.
Father, you ask me, a top student from the academy, to calculate earthworks? This thing I found very boring three years ago. When the squirrel dug holes, I have done it countless times. If you add the concept of density to it, my child will
Still a little interested.
Li Er thought that the questions he had asked were already very difficult, and received unanimous approval from Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji, who believed that these questions should be the most difficult exam in recent years. Who knew that he was criticized by his own son for being useless?
Li Ke was a polite child. When he saw his father, he was very unhappy and said quickly: "Father, I don't know who came up with these questions? Why is it so rash and simple, and my official position in the Tang Dynasty is so worthless? These
The question is not a big problem for Xiao An and the others. Can they be officials at their level? Doesn’t it mean that all second-year students and above in the academy can be officials? Father, you should issue an order to severely punish this irresponsible official and let him
He re-posed the question."
Li Er's face turned red. He slapped each of his two sons on the back of the head and yelled, "This is a question you and I asked. Fang Xuanling and your uncle all said it was already very difficult. What's more?"
Looking at the official service minutes later, I don’t believe that your academy even has problems with these questions that require practical practice."
Li Tai covered the back of his head and said aggrievedly: "The practical question you asked is wrong. To measure the prosperity of a place is not to look at how much grain it has turned in, but to comprehensively look at the actual income of the local people. Niu
The number of sheep, the total grain output, the level of education, the prosperity of commerce, whether there are industrial workshops, even the flow of people, the rate of population growth, the survival rate of newborns, and finally the taxes paid, wealth
It is an overall improvement. It is not simply asking for food from the people. When the people are rich, it is difficult for the Tang Dynasty to become rich or not, so your question is wrong, or at least incomplete."
Li Er sat back on his chair, looked at his two sons and said, "What did the academy teach you?"
