Aren’t the emperor’s orders sent by Tou Qianer all secret orders? Why did the palace directly send someone here this time?
The boy hurriedly replied outside the door:
"Master, please hurry up. There is a eunuch master outside who is here to deliver the order. Please come with Master Lian to receive the order."
Ah? Jia Lian has just arrived in Yangzhou, and the decree from the capital has arrived? Isn’t this a coincidence?
Lin Ruhai was confused, but did not dare to delay for even a moment. He quickly ordered someone to set up the incense table, opened the middle door, and hurriedly changed his official uniform.
Daiyu was surprised when she heard that there was a sudden order.
Whether it is a blessing or a curse is hard to predict.
She felt anxious, her face turned red and her hair was messy, her eyes were swollen and her muscles were swollen, and she was panting so hard that she couldn't lift her head. Lin Ruhai was so panicked that she quickly turned back and beat her daughter's back.
Daiyu gasped and waved to her father:
"Dad... business matters are important..."
.
The person leading the four young eunuchs to convey the order was Qiu Shi'an, the eunuch of the Prime Minister's Inner Court.
As soon as he saw Lin Ruhai and Jia Lian in official uniforms coming out and kneeling to receive the order, Qiu Shian immediately got off the horse with a smile on his face.
He was speaking on behalf of the emperor at this time, so it was inconvenient for him to be polite to Jia Lian and others, but he still deliberately showed a happy face.
This smile can make the person receiving the order feel at ease, and naturally he will accept his favor.
Many things in the officialdom can often be understood by just one look or look.
If you can't see this, can't understand it, and you have to talk about everything in order to understand it, then it means that officialdom is really not suitable for you.
.
Qiu Shi'an strode to the incense table, stood facing the south, held the imperial edict in his hand over his head, and said loudly:
"Special order, Jia Lian, Lin Ruhai receives the order."
The reason why Jia Lian's name is pronounced before Lin Ruhai is because at this time Jia Lian's rank was already higher than Lin Ruhai's.
Qiu Shi'an glanced at Jia Lian, Lin Ruhai, and a group of servants who were kneeling on the ground, unfolded the imperial edict, and read loudly:
"The emperor's system is carried out by heaven and said: Favor the nobility of Sui, show loyalty and hard work..."
.
Jia Lian lowered his head and complained:
Aren’t the imperial edicts in other TV dramas all vernacular?
"The reward is 30 million taels of silver and 80 million taels of gold. I admire this." It's so simple and refreshing. It sounds so simple and enjoyable.
How come we have really traveled through time, and all the imperial edicts are in classical Chinese?
The previous sentences were full of formal remarks, which spanned hundreds of words. I knew they were compliments, but I didn’t say how much the reward would be.
Also, this eunuch named Qiu Shi'an is indeed a leading figure in "A Dream of Red Mansions", but... why does this eunuch have a beard?
Eunuchs in other TV series, all of them are effeminate, yin and yang strange? They even have to be like the "factory beauty" Yu Huatian in "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate", with a beautiful face, feminine and vicious, just shy of Dongfang Invincible
Follow a set of "star-attracting tricks".
But the Qiu Shi'an in front of him is in his forties, tall and straight, with a loud and confident voice, plus two black beards. Is this a eunuch? There is no man like him in the Chinese men's football team!<
/p>
.
While he was busy complaining, Qiu Shi'an had already finished reciting the last sentence of "I appreciate this", while Jia Lian was still stunned.
Qiu Shi'an turned around the incense table with a smile on his face and held the imperial edict to Jia Lian with both hands:
"Master Jia, please accept the order."
Jia Lian blinked, but he still didn't understand - what did you say before you asked me to accept the order?
Lin Ruhai quickly poked Jia Lian: "Hurry up and pick it up."
Jia Lian quickly raised his hands above his head:
"Your Majesty Jia Lian accepted the order and thanked you for your kindness."
Qiu Shi'an handed the imperial edict into Jia Lian's hand, specially gave Jia Lian a hand, and said with a smile:
"Master Jia, you are young and promising, and you have a bright future."
Jia Lian stood up following his hand and looked at the imperial edict in his hand.
.
Yes, it’s not a sheet, it’s a roll.
Aren’t the imperial edicts in the TV series all about half a meter long Huang Lingzi? Why does this imperial edict also look different?
In fact, if you think about it, you will understand. Just now, the bearded eunuch uncle recited eight or nine hundred words, and each word was written in official script as big as a walnut, half a meter long? Where can I write it?<
/p>
The imperial edict in Jia Lian's hand was said to be two and a half meters long. It was made of purple, white, yellow, red and blue brocade. It had a background pattern of auspicious clouds and auspicious cranes, and the words "Following Heaven's Edict" were woven on the left and right ends.
, with the shaft handles as gold-plated shafts at both ends.
At the beginning of the imperial edict, there are two frisbee dragons chasing each other. From then on, the entire text is written in regular script with graceful grace, roundness and elegance, with a large seal of "Treasure of Imperial Order", followed by a large seal of "Treasure of Guangyun", and the signature
It is stamped with the seal of "Treasure of Making Imperial Orders".
Not only are all the contents of the imperial edict composed of obscure and profound ancient texts, but there is also no punctuation mark.
If you don’t have any knowledge, let alone not knowing how to segment a sentence, you won’t even be able to recognize all the words above.
Jia Lian was once again grateful for his wisdom.
If I hadn't taken this opportunity to make up for it in Heshan Academy, a modern time traveler who wanted to join the officialdom in ancient times out of thin air would sooner or later have to be beheaded for half an hour.
.
Qiu Shi'an had done countless things to convey orders, some were for great joys, some were for confiscating the family and exterminating the clan. He was used to seeing all kinds of weird reactions from people who received orders.
At this time, he had finished announcing the decree and no longer had to put on airs. Seeing that Jia Lian didn't seem to have come back to his senses, he smiled and said:
"Master Jia is very happy. This is the emperor's grace. He specially ordered the slave to come to Yangzhou and wait.
The old slave is waiting for Mr. Jia to come back to announce the decree as soon as he returns from Gusu."
When Jia Lian heard that he was buying his good son, he quickly took out a few 100-tael silver notes from his arms, stuffed them directly into Qiu Shi'an's sleeves, and said with a smile:
"Some of my thoughts will be given to my father-in-law as a reward.
It's been a long and hard journey from Beijing to Yangzhou. Come and come, please take a seat with your father-in-law first and serve tea. Let us prepare a banquet. We must have a few drinks with my father-in-law."
Qiu Shi'an knew that this young man was getting favored by the Holy Spirit, and he was willing to get close to him. He did not refuse immediately and entered the Lin Mansion.
During the tea, they talked a lot of affectionate gossip to each other. Until the banquet started, the three of them were humble again. In the end, Qiu Shian sat at the head of the table, with Lin Ruhai and Jia Lian on the left and right accompanying the Prime Minister.
Jia Lian specially took out the last jar of "broken altar incense" and opened the bottle, and the aroma of wine filled the room.
Qiu Shian squinted his eyes and flaring his nostrils:
"Oh, what kind of treasure is this? It smells so good! Is this the Queen Mother's nectar?"
Jia Lian smiled and said:
"My father-in-law is following the emperor, what good things have you not seen?
This is country wine that I brewed by myself, and I just wanted to invite my father-in-law to taste it."
Qiu Shian felt comfortable with the compliment and said unceremoniously:
"No, I was also a good drinker before I entered the palace. In the past few years in the palace, I drank all the good wines in the world. Not to mention, I have never tasted a wine as fragrant as yours.
."
.
Oh? Like to drink? That’s easy. As long as you like to drink, there is no one who doesn’t like to drink this "broken altar incense".
Wait, he said that he "was also a good drinker before entering the palace." Wouldn't a child say he likes drinking bars? In other words, this Qiu Shi'an only entered the palace after he became an adult?
Damn it, why did the eunuch like him grow a beard? He only acted cruelly after he became a man.
Great guy! You are almost catching up with Wei Zhongxian.
.
It's easy to close the distance at the wine table. After three glasses and two drinks, we have become brothers.
No need for Jia Lian to speak, Qiu Shi'an was already holding the wine glass with one hand, holding Jia Lian's hand with the other and smiling:
"The emperor's kindness to my little brother this time is not small."
