At the back of the team, a group of dudes were getting tired and fell silent, while a few people had returned to the carriage.
Xue Bai rode his horse and walked among them. As far as he could see, the official road was straight, wide and flat. Presumably the carriage would not be too bumpy. However, he didn't know how much labor it cost to build such a road, and whether there were too many levies.
Gradually, the setting sun fell behind him, stretching his shadow forward very long. The Huaqing Palace was not far ahead. From Chang'an to the Huaqing Palace, the distance was actually not that far. A quick horse could reach it in less than half a day. However,
There were too many people in the team and the march was slow. Before arriving, the red sun hanging in the western sky still fell into the distant mountains, and the sky became dark.
The guards lit torches to form a long fire dragon,
Not far away, Xue Bai looked up and saw that the mountainside on the right was brightly lit, extremely gorgeous, like a star. Huaqing Palace was built against the mountain of Lishan Mountain. It was grand in scale, with pavilions and palaces all over Lishan Mountain. At this time
In order to welcome the saint, the lights of the entire palace were lit up, as if the entire Lishan Mountain was in a luminous procession and someone exclaimed.
Xue Bai was not too surprised. He had been here before. At this time, he was only a little surprised that the simple candlelight could be more brilliant now.
At this time, the imperial chariot had already entered Huaqing Palace, and Xue Bai had just passed Wangxian Bridge.
Now the Huaqing Palace has been expanded, and ten princes' residences have been built. After passing through another city gate, many princes and princesses who came with them continued to walk forward. Xue Bai followed the officials to their residence,
After arranging for the musicians from the Taiyue Department to stay, he returned to his temporary residence. The residence was not big or small, but it was clean and tidy, and it looked good.
“Duk duk duk.” A knock on the door sounded soon.
Xue Bai thought Yang Yuyao had sent someone to invite him. When he opened the door, he saw Xie Aman standing outside.
“The imperial concubine asked me to see if Xue Lang is getting used to living there.” Xie Aman entered the dormitory with his hands behind his back, looked around, and asked, “How come Xue Lang doesn’t have a maid with him?”
“It doesn’t matter, I can take care of myself, but it’s important to contribute to the country.”
"Contribute to the country?" Xie Aman muttered in his heart: "I'm afraid it's to contribute to the country's wife."
She looked around and asked, "Where's the script? It hasn't been written yet?"
Although Xue Bai has been hiding from Er Li of Yuzhen Temple recently, he did not forget the gift he wanted to give to the imperial concubine when he was looking for an official position. He just put it in Qinglan's luggage.
“I wonder when the imperial concubine will ask for the script?”
“The sooner the better.”
“How about leaving it to Xie Dian tomorrow?”
Xie Aman looked around and said, "If you don't have it tonight, can you change it tomorrow?"
Just take it as such, I have to find my luggage."
Seeing that there was only a small prison in the dormitory, Xie Aman said: "I can tell you that the imperial concubine is going to summon you.
I will let you take you into the palace. Don't run around. No matter how much you make people criticize you, the imperial concubine will not be able to protect you."
"yes."
“Also, don’t go there either.” Xie Aman warned again: “I may come to you at any time.”
What she said was that Mrs. Guo was not going there either, because Yang Yuhuan forbade him to go.

Guoguozhuang is located to the west of Huaqing Palace. The hall is brightly lit compared to the area of the King's Villa. Yang Yuyao has been exhausted after driving all day. She wanted to rest early, but she had to wait until Xue

“Even so, I’m still afraid that the servant I sent to find you will get lost.”
“Rumors have been circulating recently, and we are at the forefront of the storm. The imperial concubine’s messenger reminded me to be more careful, so I waited until the female messenger left before I came over.”
“I’m not afraid.” Yang Yuyao said, “You and I are siblings, what’s wrong with getting closer?”
Xue Bai said helplessly: "This is not a universal excuse after all."
Yang Yuyao hugged him and said, "I'm tired too. I won't do anything else tonight, just take a bath. Who can say that we ruined the friendship between brother and sister? Let's go."
Hearing what she said, Qing Lan couldn't help but hug the bag in her hand tighter.
…
Lishan Hot Spring can be traced back to the Western Zhou Dynasty. According to legend, Qin Shihuang discovered that the hot spring water was helpful for the recovery of the wounded, and when he destroyed the Six Kingdoms, he gave the hot spring water to the soldiers to bathe in. In short, he said that the hot spring water was good.
Of course, the really good hot spring water must be found in Huaqing Palace.
Yang Yuyao's villa is to dig a spring. The quality of the water is not yet known. It is just for soaking in the artistic conception.
“Is it slippery?”
“Very slippery.”
Yang Yuyao smiled proudly and was helped by Xue Bai to sit down in the jade pool to avoid slipping. Qing Lan wanted to help but did not dare to touch her.
Mingzhu untied Yang Yuyao’s hair and took off her hair to wash it off.
“Mingzhu, come down too.”
"yes."
The obscene garment was soaked. Although it was not untied, it was no different from being untied.
Xue Bai neither looked nor deliberately averted his eyes. This calmness and calmness could only be obtained by a person with rich experience.
Seeing him like this, Yang Yuyao couldn't help but admire Qing Lan in her heart, but she was embarrassed. She was obviously shocked. Yang Yuyao was still very gentle and patient with this little beauty. He was afraid of scaring her, so he didn't make any more moves until he got out of the bath.
, then said softly: "You are tired after a long day's journey. There are few houses in the manor here. You can go and sleep with Nian Nu."
“Yes, then...I’ll go over first.””
Yang Yuyao looked at her running back, smiled at Xue Bai, and said: "Don't be in a hurry, take your time."
Xue Bai knew what she meant and shook his head with a wry smile.
"Let me do it."
He took the handkerchief from Mingzhu's hand and wiped Yang Yuyao's hair.
This little kindness made her very happy, and she said with a smile: "You have to seek an official position again, so you can treat me so considerately."
"I didn't say that."
“Yuhuan forbids you to come here, but you come here. I am very satisfied. I should give you something sweet to taste.”
“Is there no shortage now?”
"Go, who told you this?" Yang Yuyao said angrily, "I asked you about the Zhaoying County Captain. Do you know who the Zhaoying County Lieutenant is now?"
"I know?"
"Even if you don't know a person who can be appointed as a Jiwei, you must have heard about his family background. The current Zhaoyingwei is Da Xijun's son, Da Xihao."
Xue Bai said: "The son of Gengbu Shilang, his family background is extraordinary."
Not to mention Da Xixun, his wife is from the Shanggu Kou family and has been the county guard for generations. Although she is not one of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, she is indeed a high-ranking family." Yang Yuyao said: "But it is easy for Da Xi to seek this official position.
Just get promoted."
Xue Bai pondered: "Who told you this idea?"
"Am I stupid? I'm just too lazy to use my brain. For the latest chapter, please go to [Full~Ben520 Reading], please remember our website: xs520.co" Yang Yuyao leaned into Xue Bai's arms and said lazily: "It's so simple
How could I not think of a way?"
“Where should we move Daxi Fu?”
“Isn’t there a shortage in the newspaper publishing department? He has higher qualifications than you and can find a seventh-grade official.”
Xue Bai asked: "Is this also what Yuyao came up with?"
"This is not what someone said when I was doing inquiries for others." Yang Yuyao asked: "Mingzhu, who came up with the idea at that time?"
“Returning to Yaoniang is what Yang Zhongcheng said.”
“Yes, when I asked my brother, my cousin was also there.”
Xue Bai said: "It seems that Genu has guessed that I want to recruit Zhaoyingwei."
“He is willing to give it to you?”
"I haven't seen his sincerity yet." Xue Bai said: "I just met Chen Xilie before departure and asked me if I would like to go to Taiyuan. It can be seen that they prefer me to stay farther away, and it is best to go out of Guanzhong."
Yang Yuyao asked angrily: "Does this have to go against my thoughts?"
“That’s what senior officials and ministers are like. They hope that everything will be controlled by them.” Xue Bai said: “So I have to insist on keeping Chang’an Wei until the last moment, otherwise Ge Nu will feel that he is forced by me.”
“Then what do we do?”
“There’s no rush, let them do it first.”
Xue Bai has already inquired with Li Zhen, Zhang Zan and others. Although the positions of several ministers have been allocated to the clan, the official positions in the Dibao Yuan are still completely empty.
Li Longji did not deal with this matter before he visited the Huaqing Palace, but Yang Hua, Xue Bai and others came with him. It was enough time to persuade the saints to fix all the official positions in the newspaper academy. By then, Li Linfu would really be like water.
It can't be poured in, and it can't be inserted with a needle.
Ge Nu will definitely be more anxious than we are, waiting for him to propose me to be Zhaoying Wei first. Only after we put forward two more stringent conditions will he be willing to give me the position and feel that the situation is still controllable.
“Don’t be in a hurry, take your time.”
Since the saint was not in Chang'an, all government affairs were handed over to Li Linyu.
Early in the morning the next day, Chen Xilie hurried to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Why didn’t the right minister see me yesterday? Yang Dang reached out to the secretary.
“Because they can’t reach out, they don’t need to see you.”
Li Linfu said, his stern eyes turned away, and he was surprised to find that Chen Xilie, who had just lost a part-time job, had a rosy face.
I must have slept well last night.
"But the Secretary-General has been suppressed." Chen Xilie said: "Wei Shu is very alienated from Youxiang, so he will serve as Secretary-General for me...
"So what?" Li Linfu said: "Separately, there is a Hongwen Hall and a Journaling Hall. The Secretariat Department only has the right to revise books. You and I are the supervisors, and the credit will be great."
Chen Xilie has yet to say more.
Li Linfu slapped his head and covered his face and scolded: "Instead of making noise here, think about what you have done to make the saint unhappy!"
“What have I done?”
Chen Xilie knows that he has done nothing except spreading rumors about Xue Bai recently.
He rolled his eyes and said in surprise: "Does the saint think that "Tianbao Shiwen" was written by me?! They copied it from me...
“That’s enough, go back.”
Li Linfu is very busy.
He handles state affairs on behalf of the emperor, but his power is not as great as that of the emperor. He has to consider more. It is already hard work. The repair of books, the opening of libraries, and the publication of newspapers due to Xue Bai are additional government affairs. But if he is really allowed to open his mind,
It's absolutely impossible to control it even if you don't want to.
Therefore, despite his busy schedule, Li Linfu still found time to call Da Xixun to explain a few words. After all, Chen Xilie lost his post as secretary and junior supervisor, and he no longer cared about Xue Bai.
"Chen Xilie failed, you go and do it. Two points, the right to publish the newspaper cannot be lost, and Xue Bai cannot stay in Chang'an."
“Here.”
Da Xixun understood it as soon as he heard it.
On the right, Xue Bai has Ji Chan. In Chang'an, Xue Bai is protected by the saint and Yang Fei. It is difficult to deal with it. It is best to be able to support him far away;
But Xue Bai needs to hand over the right to publish the newspaper...Then the best way is to coax.
It is agreed to give Xue Bai an official position first, and then whether to give it to him or not is not in the hands of the officials? As long as the saint is not disturbed.
After leaving the Youxiang Mansion, Da Xixun immediately went back and wrote a long letter, and sent someone to deliver it quickly to his third son Da Xifu.
The horse galloped out of Chang'an and galloped eastward. It was not yet noon when we arrived at Zhaoying County Yamen.
Zhaoying County is adjacent to Huaqing Palace. The city was very lively that day.
It should be noted that the saints often stayed in Huaqing Palace for several months without returning to Chang'an every year, and sometimes stayed there for half a year.
During this period, Lishan Mountain, Huaqing Palace, and Zhaoying City formed an existence like a small Chang'an.
In addition to the accompanying royal relatives and worshippers, some civil and military officials will also come and live in Zhaoying City. Many officials also have residences in Zhaoying City.
It is precisely "thousands of officials and retinues came to the north of Lishan Mountain, and all the nations came to the east of Wei River".
Therefore, the post of Zhaoying County Lieutenant is the best springboard for promotion for officials who have just entered the officialdom. It has been five years since Daxifu entered the officialdom. Menyin Youjian, Gate Guard Cangcao, has been in the army for three years, and he has been awarded Zhaoyingwei for two years.
He also got a little share of the credit for the Qing Palace. Taking advantage of the saint's visit to the Qing Palace and showing his face in front of the emperor, it should not be difficult to get promoted.
On this day, he was receiving officials and dignitaries from Chang'an. Suddenly he received a letter from his grandfather. When he opened it and read it, his eyes lit up.
The content of the letter is also simple. Da Xixun asked him to make friends with Xue Bai, and asked Xue Bai to recommend officials of the newspaper publishing house to the saint according to the list given by his right minister.
Then, Da Xifu came and promised to leave the Zhaoying county captain to Xue Bai.
And the name given to him on the list you proposed is from the editor-in-chief of the Journal and Newspaper Academy, who is under the seventh rank.
Where do the officials and musicians of the Taiyue Department live? "
The official residences south of Wangxian Bridge are under the jurisdiction of Huaqing Palace.
"It doesn't matter." Da Xi said: "I have admired Xue Langcai for a long time, and I want to meet his poetry and prose, so I should pay him a visit.
01
Xue Bai Meimei slept for a while, got up in the afternoon, and enjoyed the pleasure of the boudoir with Yang Yuyao, like a couple of gods and immortals.
"Just stay calm. Yuhuan has just arrived at Huaqing Palace, so he will definitely not call you over today." Yang Yuyao said, "If someone in the palace goes to the official residence to call you, you can go there in time."
Before he finished speaking, a maid came to vote: "Someone came to the official residence to find Xue Lang, calling himself Zhao Ying Wei Da Xi Fu."
“Huh? Is this coming?”
“As I said, Genu is more anxious than me.”
Xue Bai then planned to go there, but did not forget to go to Qing Lan to get the playbook.
This was one of the main things he wanted to do when he came to Huaqing Palace.
Qing Lan and Nian Nu were talking and talking about dancing. When Xue Bai entered the room, Qing Lan was spinning around in a circle, causing Nian Nu to applaud and praise, saying that he had never seen such a graceful dance, "Xue Lang, are you rehearsing again?"
Is there any use for slaves?"
“Yes, yes.” Xue Bai said, “If others ask, they will say that I came to Guo Guozhuang, but actually I came to discuss opera with you.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Xue, the slave family will definitely comply with the request.” Nian Nu saluted happily and asked, “Then when will we start discussing it?”
“When I finish revising the script, I’ll have someone copy it for you.”
"Very good."
NA
Da Xifu waited in the official residence for a long time, then he saw Xue Baistep coming, and he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
The two exchanged pleasantries and immediately became close friends.
“Where did Xue Lang just come from?”
“I first arrived at Lishan Mountain and went for a walk in the morning. The mountains are so beautiful.”
"Yes." Da Xi said, "I should be Xue Lang's guide and show you the scenery of Zhaoying County."
“This is so, you can’t ask for it.”
The two of them agreed on a date and planned to go shopping together to learn about the local customs and customs nearby.
Da Xifu received his grandfather's instructions and knew that the most important thing in this matter was to win Xue Bai's trust, so he did not rush to propose that he would give up the post of Zhaoyingwei, but showed his admiration for Xue Bai.
Speaking of what happened later, a woman outside suddenly shouted in a pleasant voice: "Tailecheng, have you gotten up?"
Da Xifu quickly stood up and left.
“Then I won’t bother you.”
“I’ll deliver it to Brother Xi.”
“No, there’s really no need.” Da Xifu waved his hands repeatedly and said, “I don’t need to bother Xue Lang to see me off. You still have guests, so don’t pay attention to me.”
Xue Bai still wants to send him off.
Da Xifu had already exited the house, only to see a woman wearing a blue robe hiding on one side of the corridor.
His eyes were venomous, and he quickly glanced at the talisman on the opponent's waist and knew that she was a female official in the inner court.
When he walked far away, Xue Bai's voice sounded behind him,
“Come in and talk.”
“You still have friends in Lishan?” Da Xifu walked through the corridor. He looked back and saw that there was no one else around. Xue Bai and this woman were alone.
With a thought in his mind, he was keenly aware of something fishy, so he pretended to have lost something and went back, quietly walking under Xue Bai's house to see what they were doing.
In the room, the woman asked in surprise: "Did you really conjure up the script? But you ran away?"
“I still have to make some more changes, but don’t worry, it won’t affect the progress of the rehearsal.”
Xue Bai said this, paused, and then said: "You also know that my future depends on this."
The female servant was silent.
Xue Bai added: "If this play can be arranged to satisfy the imperial concubine, you must help me find a seventh-grade newspaper editor."
“Will the saint agree?“
Logically speaking, local qualifications are necessary for promotion, but the Journalist Academy is an exception. In fact, my positions as Lieutenant of Chi County and Lieutenant of Ji County are all fake, just to let the high-ranking officials in the court suppress me. The saint will be displeased, so I will be allowed to
If you continue to stay in the newspaper office, you see, the left prime minister will be dismissed from his post because of this."
"I...help you to beg the noble concubine?""
“Well, this drama is my real confidence.”
After Xue Bai finished speaking, the room was quiet for a while.
Da Xifu was a little confused. He didn't understand what they were doing, and felt that there was some unfamiliarity between them.
Then, I heard the female envoy ask: "Then...I helped you, what can you give me?"
