Dozens of people rode out of Chongrenfang and headed straight along the street to Yanxi Gate on the east side of the imperial city. The six imperial ministries and most of the central government offices were all within the imperial city.
Along the way, the people were walking on the street when they suddenly heard the rumble of horse hooves mixed with the noise and shouts coming from far and near. They were so frightened that they hurriedly stepped aside and watched helplessly as this group of cavalry came roaring in and swaggered in front of them.
And go.
If there was a carriage that could not be avoided, the cavalry separated the queue into two and galloped past from the left and right sides. The horseman Herod who was driving the horse was so startled that he screamed and almost stumbled.
The noble man in the carriage was so angry that he opened the curtain and wanted to curse, but was stopped by the coachman: "That's Fang Erlang traveling!"
The noble man then swallowed back the curse words that came to his lips.
There are two people in Chang'an city who must not be offended. One is Zhao Guogong Changsun Wuji. This person is vicious and despicable, and he often strikes behind the scenes and cannot be avoided. The other is Fang Jun, although he is not as scheming as Changsun Wuji.
, but this guy didn’t even give you a chance to come back, he knocked you down right in front of you, showing no mercy at all...
Pei Xingjian rode in the queue and watched this group of cavalry swaggering through the city. Not only did he smile bitterly, he had reached the status of a prince. Who is not mature and calm and cherishes his feathers? Fang Jun is so unscrupulous and unscrupulous.
Thinking about it again, I am actually a playboy, but compared with Fang Jun's swagger, he is as well-behaved as a three-year-old child...
A group of people and horses arrived at Yanxi Gate, frightening the soldiers guarding the gate to draw their swords out of their sheaths and prepare for the attack.
Are you trying to break into the palace to rebel?
When he saw Fang Jun clearly surrounded by a group of cavalry, he relaxed a little. This man would never rebel.
Just looking at this posture...I'm afraid I'm going to cause trouble.
The captain who guarded the gate stood up fearfully, and respectfully performed military salutes from a distance. After standing up, he loudly said: "I wonder where the Duke of Yue wants to go?"
Fang Jun sat on the horse, holding the reins in his hand, and replied: "I am going to the official department to do something, please get out of the way quickly, don't delay!"
The gatekeeper said cautiously: "The Duke of Yue should know that galloping horses are strictly prohibited in the imperial city. I dare not stop the Duke of Yue because of my humble position. But please be considerate of my humble position, otherwise I will not dare to let you in..."
There is only a sky street that separates the imperial city from the palace city, and it is where the central government offices of the empire are concentrated. Although officials are not allowed to ride horses to go on duty, they are strictly prohibited from galloping, because if they are not careful, pedestrians will be injured, and everyone here
The pedestrians were all court officials.
This was the rule. Fang Jun nodded, turned over and jumped off the horse.
All the soldiers also jumped off their horses. The captain who was guarding the gate breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly stepped aside and bowed: "Master Yue, please!"
Fang Jun said "Yeah" and entered Yanxi Gate surrounded by everyone.
The captain who guarded the gate had just put his heart back in his stomach, but when he looked back, he immediately lifted it up again. Fang Jun and others were seen leading the horses through the city gate, and then they all jumped on the horses, and the whips crackled.
, the war horse raised its four hooves, and galloped away in the direction of the officials with great rumbling sound.
"Mom! What do you want to do with this stick?"
The captain who was guarding the gate slapped his thigh, cursed, and then hurriedly ordered the people around him: "Go to the Ministry of War quickly and inform the Jingzhao Mansion that the Duke of Yue has entered the imperial city on horseback and gone straight to the Yamen of the Ministry of Civil Affairs!"
As for the Ministry of War, which was staffed by Fang Jun, and the Jingzhao Mansion, which was created by Fang Jun, it didn't matter to him whether these two yamen were in charge of this matter.
In short, the responsibility has been pushed away, and the rest can only seek blessings for oneself. I hope that the second master Fang will never cause a big incident...
…
The Eastern Han Dynasty began with the establishment of the Ministry of Civil Affairs at the Shangshutai, which was responsible for the election of temples and rituals. Later, it was renamed the Xuanbu, which was responsible for the appointment and removal of officials. During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Wei changed its name to the Ministry of Personnel, and was responsible for the appointment and removal of civilian officials. It also controlled the legal system and was subordinate to the Shangshutai.
The minister was appointed as the chief official. During the two Jin Dynasties, the number of ministers may increase or decrease, and he was also responsible for the election of military officers. In the Southern Dynasties, it became custom-made and he was placed as one of the six ministers in the province of minister. In the Sui and Tang dynasties, after many reforms, the Ministry of Personnel
It has already jumped to the top of the six categories.
Because it has the power to select, award, and take exams for civil servants across the country, it has become truly the best in the world!
Walking along the long street of the Imperial City, you can see a row of central government offices, one next to the other. It seems that the gates of the civil service department are larger than other government offices...
The sky is gloomy today, and snowflakes are floating sparsely. Although they are not big, they are also chilly to the bone.
The door of the official yamen was closed tightly, and the gatekeepers were hiding in the side rooms on both sides and warming themselves by the fire. Fortunately, as the New Year was approaching, no official business was conducted in the yamen. It was just the officials finishing the many affairs accumulated over the year. Even if they could not
The last ones are also sealed up for processing after the new year comes. Therefore, only the officials of the headquarters come and go in the huge yamen. There is no need to go out to the throne for questioning, and a few doors can still hide in some peace.
"I don't know why it's winter today. It's snowing one after another, and I'm freezing to death."
"It's okay. Since the beginning of winter, Jingzhao Mansion has been searching for dangerous houses everywhere, and cooperated with local government offices to repair them. Although it snowed several times, the people inside and outside Chang'an have not yet heard that their houses collapsed and they froze to death.
It’s been a good year.”
"The most important thing is that this year ends well. There are good harvests everywhere in and outside the Pass, in the west and east of Hexi. The people have food and will not become homeless. Otherwise, as in the past, whenever a place is hit by a disaster, the people
They were displaced and flocked to Chang'an in droves. There were refugees everywhere in and outside the city. They seemed to freeze to death after a heavy snowfall. Gee, it's so miserable."
Several of the disciples chatted, took off the kettle from the stove, and poured boiling water into a teapot. The aroma of tea wafted out in an instant. It was fragrant and mellow, and it turned out to be first-class tea.
There is still a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, and it is not easy to be the disciple of "the best in the world". If you have no identity and background, how can you get your turn?
Several people huddled next to the stove, each holding a big tea cup, sipping tea in a very comfortable and leisurely way.
Suddenly there was a sound of horse hooves outside, rumbling from far to near, and someone said: "Hey, I don't know which family's prodigal son is riding a horse in the imperial city. After the New Year's Yushitai, those censors
The officials have something to do again."
The remaining people did not respond, but just stared, because the sound of hoofbeats was getting closer and closer, until there was a "boom", the ground in the room seemed to be shaking, and the dust on the beams fell, hitting several people.
The disciples looked embarrassed.
"What's going on?!"
Several people were shocked. They quickly put down their teacups and pushed the door open. They were stunned.
The two huge doors had fallen from the door frames and fell into the yard. Two horseshoe marks were clearly visible on the thick copper-covered door panels, and a man was riding a horse and slowly walked in from outside the door, mouthing something.
He stopped to apologize: "Sorry, sorry, it was snowy and the road was slippery. I couldn't slow down in time, so I crashed into the gate. I'm extremely sorry. Hey, you guys are the gatekeepers? Don't just stand there, lift the gate and throw it away.
, hurry up and find someone to replace it with a new door, and go back to Liang Guogong's mansion to withdraw the money, I won't let you guys take the responsibility."
Several disciples’ eyes twitched.
The horse was too fast and there was no time to slow down, so you knocked through the official's door?
This is simply an anecdote for the ages.
In particular, although the words were spoken brightly, the expression and tone were too arrogant. This is the official department, do you think it is a vegetable market?
This gate represents the face of the officials. Is that something that can be solved by paying a few dollars?
You are just here to cause trouble!
At that moment, a young and arrogant man took a step forward and was about to point his nose at the man and scold him. However, as soon as he took the step, he was pulled by his colleague. In his confusion, the colleague stepped forward.
, bowed, saluted, and smiled: "Look at what you said, Duke Yue, it's all because the small door failed to open to you in time, otherwise how could it be like this? The door of our staff department is of course extremely important, but don't hurt it.
It hit your mount's hoof."
At this moment, all the officials in the yamen were alarmed by the loud noise just now. They all walked out of the duty room and saw that the door of their yamen was being knocked away by someone riding on a horse. Their faces were full of excitement.
When everyone saw clearly the young man in brocade robe still riding a tall horse at the door, they were suddenly shocked.
No one would believe that the horse was going too fast and accidentally knocked through the gate. Now that he saw this guy standing proudly on the horse, playing with the riding crop with one hand, he knew that the matter would definitely not be that simple.
