Luo Pei smiled and said, "You have also served as an official in Shun'an Mansion, even as an agent."
"What do you think of Yashen?"
"Ya Shen?" This is a typical dojo built in a snail shell. Every month, officials of all sizes will visit.
Seeing Su Ziji deep in thought, Luo Pei pointed out: "You have something to discuss, but you have nothing to do to drink tea. Do you think this is a waste?"
"I thought so too when I was young."
God Luo Pei's smile faded and became solemn. He cupped his hands and said: "The Taizu wielded the three-foot sword and conquered the world in hundreds of battles. This is indeed the foundation of our foundation. Later generations and officials at home and abroad all respect holy virtues, but etiquette is also the most important thing."
The most important thing is to determine the name and status, and it is not important whether there is something wrong or not. What is important is that the system and etiquette cannot be relaxed even a little."
"The world has decreed that palaces must be built. They must be magnificent and majestic."
"Why isn't this grand palace the palace in people's hearts?"
"Xu Nanqian is a good and upright official, but he has little knowledge. He went to the countryside incognito and lost his official status. This is just a factor. In fact, this person was admonished to reduce the etiquette system. The emperor scolded him and demoted him three levels in a row.
You are already magnanimous. It doesn’t matter if you can’t think clearly at the moment. You are a smart person. If you think about it carefully, you will experience it more in the future, or you will be able to figure it out in a few years.”
"Luo Pei teaches etiquette, do you accept it?"
"yes!"
"[The Way of Government] +3500, Level 7 (7680/8000)"
Suddenly a wave of knowledge hit him, and it didn't take a few years for Su Ziji to "understand" and gain enlightenment.
To put it bluntly, the country is of course obtained with the three-foot sword, but maintaining its order is more than just the three-foot sword. Ya Shen seems to be a useless rule, but in fact it is through this ritual and ceremony, and instilled in it again and again.
A humble chain of command.
Even his original modern country still had institutional rules.
Although it is not advisable to kneel down and worship, it should be emphasized elsewhere.
It can even be said that precisely because people are not encouraged to kneel down and worship, several times the resources must be spent to emphasize the rules.
"Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy, Your Majesty the Governor, the dock has arrived and the ship is about to arrive." At this time, someone came in to report, interrupting Su Ziji's thinking.
Su Ziji knew that when he arrived at the provincial capital, both the imperial envoy and the governor would have to be busy for a while. He stood up to thank Luo Pei and planned to return to his official ship.
I sincerely thank you, of course, to Yin Luo Pei and even the governor. They are two treasures of a medium or small size. It only took two days and two nights of asking for advice along the way. Su Ziji benefited a lot and reached level 8, just a little short of it.
Just reach level 9.
Apart from anything else, Su Ziji felt that his understanding of officialdom and power had become much clearer after the teaching just now.
As a newcomer to the officialdom, Su Ziji, no matter how much theoretical foundation he had, lacked many years of experience, so he was lacking something.
Now, their many years of experience as senior officials have directly made up for their shortcomings in this area.
"Huh?"
Seeing the governor coming out, Luo Pei, who had let Su Ziji go back, was suddenly attracted by a small eagle falling from the sky.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, the eagle fell down.
Su Ziji saw Luo Pei's gesture of raising his hand to support the eagle. He was so skillful and did not shy away from himself and the governor. Could it be a unique method of contact for imperial envoys?
Su Ziji looked at it in surprise. Luo Pei had skillfully pulled out the letter Xiaoying had brought and opened it to read.
Upon seeing this, his expression froze and he did not speak, silently forwarding the letter to Governor Zhao.
The governor was startled. He opened the letter and read it. His expression changed. He looked up at Su Ziji and then at Luo Pei. Luo Pei also had a serious look on his face.
The two looked at each other for a moment, then turned and bowed to Su Ziji.
"Your Majesty Luo Pei (Zhao Mi Song) pays homage to the Emperor's grandson!"
"Two adults, you..." Su Ziji seemed shocked by this bow and looked at them.
Seeing the look of surprise on Su Ziji's face, Luo Pei forced a smile and said softly: "Imperial grandson, your identity as the crown prince's surviving son has been confirmed by the emperor. The imperial family has proposed a name for you. The emperor has decreed that you should be named."
Come to Beijing quickly."
In an instant, Su Ziji suddenly understood the distinction between monarch and minister.
The two people kneeling below, one is an imperial envoy, and his title is a third-grade bachelor.
One is the governor, in charge of the military and political power of a province.
Not to mention those who were young students back then, even if they are now the number one scholar, they still have to bow respectfully to the two of them.
Without the status of emperor and grandson, the two of them would never be able to kneel to themselves throughout their lives. Even if they became prime minister, they would only bow deeply.
Not to mention how many years later this is.
But now that there is a "distinction between monarch and minister", knowledge and official status are insignificant, but instead they "kowtow" to themselves with respect, and it is incredible that they are "noble or humble"!
Su Ziji sighed in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up with his hands, saying: "How dare you, I absolutely can't bear it, my identity has not been confirmed yet, even if it is confirmed, the teachings of these two people, I regard them as teachers in my heart, please get up, please get up
."
Su Ziji knew in his heart that his identity as the crown prince's surviving son had been confirmed and made clear to the world. If the emperor wanted to go back on his word later, he would have to consider it.
He was about to speak when he suddenly heard a noise and a figure was standing on the side of the ship. His whole body was trembling and he looked at Su Ziji longingly.
Cen Rubai?
Seeing that the intruder was Cen Rubai, Su Ziji realized something.
Speaking of Cen Rubai, he was originally looking for Su Ziji, but it turned out to be such a coincidence. After hearing these words, his head buzzed, and he suddenly broke in before he had time to react. At this time, his whole body was shaking and tears were flying.
.
He ignored his rudeness and asked those present: "Is this true?"
Because his expression was extremely complicated, with surprise and sadness at the same time, no one present even thought of scolding him.
Luo Pei and Governor Zhao both frowned and looked at him, a little confused as to why Su Ziji's staff reacted like this. Could it be that their lord suddenly had a noble status and was excited about it? But it didn't look like that.
.
"It's true, who are you?" Luo Pei saw the boat getting closer to the shore. He didn't want people to see this scene. He waved his hand to stop the boat and asked with a frown.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..." Cen Rubai suddenly knelt down, cried loudly, and beat his chest and raised his feet to the sky: "Prince, you actually have a son? God has eyes, God has eyes!"
Cen Rubai cried bitterly on the deck, and when he talked about it, he was heartbroken.
His hissing shocked everyone around him. What kind of development is this?
So that's it. Su Ziji looked at Cen Rubai and suddenly understood everything.
No wonder Cen Rubai has always been with Lin Yuqing or him. Although he works and fulfills his duties, he never refuses to call himself his master. It turns out that he has an old master whom he never forgets.
But even Su Ziji didn't expect that the lord Cen Rubai had always missed was the former prince.
Cen Rubai cried bitterly for a while, sobbed for a long time, and then said: "I have been disrespectful to the prince."
Cen Rubai rearranged his clothes, and solemnly saluted Su Ziji again, using the same ceremony as a real retainer would give to his lord, and shouted loudly.
"I, the Eastern Secretary of the Eastern Palace, Zhi Cen Rubai, pays homage to the Crown Prince!"
