Unknowingly, it has been several days since he took office, and Li Shan's current life... is almost the laziest time since time travel.
Counting further back, including previous lives, college, high school, junior high school, elementary school... Maybe I had a similar time before elementary school. How could a rural boy fight his way through thousands of troops, how could he be lazy?
But on this day, Li Shan was woken up while still sleeping... In fact, even if he went to work these days, he would wake up very early. The biological clock developed in his previous life would accompany him throughout his life.
"What time is it?" Li Shan rubbed his sleepy eyes and turned his head to look. It was dark outside the window.
Mrs. Zhou, who had already taken some clothes to put on Li Shan, whispered: "Mr. Lang, you have been ugly for three seconds."
"Three o'clock in the ugly hour?" Li Shan looked confused. After calculation, it was probably between 2:30 and 3 o'clock in the middle of the night. Why did he get up so early?
"Today is the fifteenth day." Xiaoman came in with a washbasin, "Mr. Wang forgot, you will go to court on the fifteenth day of the lunar month!"
Only then did Li Shan remember that no matter how lazy Li Yuan was, he still had to go to work twice a month...but he had to do things every day, and the emperor who didn't do anything would not be very stable.
After washing up in a hurry and calculating that time was a little tight, Li Shan set off with the cakes Zhou had just baked. It was rare for someone like him to go to court but live outside the city... After getting married, he really had to have both sides. Live, I live in Yanshoufang before the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, and in Zhuangzi during the rest of the time.
When Li Shan entered the palace, he always drove his horse to the Zhuque Gate outside the imperial city and then dismounted, but today he couldn't do it. The road was very crowded, so he had to let Wang Junhao stay. He dismounted and carried a lantern and squeezed through the crowd slowly. forward.
Several streets outside the imperial city were covered with lanterns, which looked like a flaming dragon from a distance. It was not until the drums of the Chengtian Gate tower sounded that all the officials lined up in order and filed in under the leadership of the censor.
Li Shanguan lives in Sinongqing. He is from the third rank. His rank is neither high nor low. He participates in the imperial dynasty in Taiji Hall. The rank is not based on the rank. If there is no Sinongqing, he can go forward and stand with Li Daoxuan, King of Huaiyang. together.
Glancing forward a few times, Li Shan discovered that there was also a county king not far away, Prince Zhao Li Xiaogong.
Li Shan refused to take over, so Li Yuan gave Zong Zhengqing to Li Xiaogong... This man was really unlucky.
Li Shan felt drowsy after watching the series of rituals that followed. He considered himself a person who could quickly get into work mode once he woke up... After all, being woken up by a phone call was usually for surgery or emergency treatment, but today he really couldn't stand it. Lived.
Li Yuan could sit down, but everyone else was standing. After listening to it for a while, Li Shan felt that it was boring. Most of them were political affairs reported at the local level, and so many officials were called in for such things... that is, the prince and the prime minister. Auxiliary, the six ministers can speak, is it necessary?
After a while, Li Shan, who was bored, began to be in a daze. He suddenly thought that Cui Xin had not let go yet, but Zhang had already promised that he would be able to apply for an appointment after he is crowned in April next year. The application period is the last one in the Three Books and Six Rites. Second, the last step is to welcome the bride.
Su Dingfang and Mr. Li have almost decided to get married in February next year. Ms. Li will come to Chang'an in advance and get married from Master Li's house. After all, his parents are gone... Li Shan is a little worried and is going to find an opportunity to ask for details.
What to ask?
What an inspiring poem!
Every poem I recite is enough to be passed down to future generations, but who has nothing to do to memorize makeup-inducing poems... Do you have similar poems in your life?
Even if there was one, Su Dingfang couldn't use it... Well, I don't know if there is such a thing as makeup-inducing poems in this era.
After a while, Li Shan thought about his homemade condom again... That thing looked decent, made of sheep intestines. Li Shan didn't dislike it, but the effect... there was no way to test it.
I don’t know how long it took, but Li Shan’s legs were getting sore when he stood. He looked at the officials next to him with admiration. Most of them were already old and could stand so well. He traveled to later generations. It’s hard to say what else. The chief doctor’s
The standing skills are there.
Finally, a middle-aged official in front faced the officials and loudly announced that the court was over. Li Shan bent over and rubbed his knees, cursing in his heart, trying to be superficial.
The guard of honor withdrew with the emperor, and the princes and prime ministers also left quickly. Next came the serious discussions, which were mainly held in Liangyi Hall or Linhu Hall.
There is another procedure for the remaining officials to give food.
In the corridor outside the Tai Chi Hall, the servants and palace attendants have already arrived with boxes. This is the so-called "corridor food", which is also a box lunch.
Li Shan opened it and took a look. There were several sizes. The one he had was rice, two pieces of mutton, and a few pieces of radish. He didn't know how it tasted, but at least it was hot.
Looking up at the sun, Li Shan estimated in his mind that he would set off at about three o'clock in the middle of the night, enter the imperial city around four o'clock, officially start around five o'clock, and finish around eight o'clock... It's a bit crazy.
I have to get up in the middle of the night every half month and waste five hours here.
Prime ministers and princes all have special treatment. Other officials can only eat here. Li Shan didn't care. As he was eating, Li Daoxuan smiled and asked: "How does it taste?"
"It would be good if you can eat something that's hot in your mouth." Li Shan coughed twice, "I heard that you had an affair with Yushitai again..."
Li Daoxuan said angrily: "If you hadn't introduced me to Huairen, I would have really thought..."
Well, the official title of Yushi Zhongcheng was knocked down in public, even though Li Shan was in the middle to make peace, and it was also a misunderstanding... But then Li Daoxuan was targeted by the Yushitai, and he was impeached more than ten times in the past month.
"By the way, how about going hunting in the Forbidden Garden during this ten-day holiday?" Li Daoxuan asked with a smile: "You must make some progress, otherwise you will be scolded by the third sister again."
"I'm not going." Li Shan said lazily: "I have something else to do that day... Besides, I'm going on a safari with you, so I'll have to find a reason to visit Wei Ting or Wei Xuancheng during the next ten days of the holiday."
The public holidays in the Tang Dynasty were three days a month, but this was a fixed holiday. There were many other holidays. The Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, and Double Ninth Festival were all seven-day holidays. The Mid-Autumn Festival, Laba Festival, and Dragon Boat Festival were three-day holidays, as were the Beginning of Spring and Beginning of Autumn.
Let's take one day off, and the winter solstice lasts seven days.
There is also a day off for the birthday of Buddha Sakyamuni, Lao Tzu and Li Er's birthday. Even later, the birthday of Emperor Xuanzong and Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty was designated as the "Qianqiu Festival". Not only was it a holiday, but the whole country celebrated it.
Just as Wei Ting was talking, Wei Ting came over and said with a smile: "This ten-day holiday, the prince is hosting a banquet in the East Palace."
Li Daoxuan's expression changed slightly, Li Shan's lips moved, and he nodded with a wry smile, "Thank you, Your Highness."
Not far away, Sinong Shaoqing Zhao Yuankai saw this scene, his eyes were full of envy, jealousy and hatred, you are arsenic, I am honey!
