Today, Guo Dan can be regarded as a first-hand experience of what is called "Shinong Industry and Commerce".

In fact, it is really "taxi" and "other".

Everything is inferior, but reading is high.

In fact, this has nothing to do with Guo Dan, he didn't promise to have a performance at that time, or sit in the backyard of the palace to eat, with his mercenary, he can't do it, in the final analysis, it is the ass that decides the head, he himself is a businessman, he tries his best to fight for better treatment for businessmen, in fact, he is also for himself.

Having said that, the palace is so big, if you really want to move a place, you can't move it anywhere.

It can be seen how humble the status of a merchant is.

Over the next few days, he began to get busy.

Fortunately, Kou Zhuisa is a virtuous helper who helps him relieve a lot of burdens.

After a few busy days, it can be regarded as ushering in the canonization ceremony.

The wayward Wanli directly announced a three-day holiday and lifted the curfew.

This is actually not in the rules and regulations, after all, it is not the canonization of the queen or the prince, or the Wanli unhappy minister opposes, the more you oppose, the more I have to do, anyway, it is difficult for the emperor to make himself die, your ministers are not necessarily, in the game between the emperor and the ministers, they have their own advantages, the emperor can withstand the action, and the ministers are endless, killing a batch and a batch.

Where do the people care about who is the imperial concubine, but everyone is happy when the curfew is lifted, and the merchants are also happy.

Just after the time, in front of a small gate in the west of the imperial city, there was a long queue, and when I got closer, all the people in the team were dressed in brocade clothes, bright and beautiful, but they were lined up in front of this small gate, and they were a little uncoordinated.

Because the canonization ceremony is very inhumane, it starts at dawn, and preparations are already being made before dawn, so these special guests naturally have to come early.

"Nephew Guo Xian!"

As soon as Guo Dan got out of the carriage, he heard a shout, and looked through the firelight on the wall, only to see Zhou Feng waving at him.

"Inside and outside the imperial city, it is strictly forbidden to make noise."

A eunuch in front of the door said in a loud voice.

Zhou Feng was frightened, and immediately nodded again, although Zhou Feng knew many officials, but so what, he was just a businessman.

Guo Dan walked over, and many people greeted him, and he also nodded.

Coming to Zhou Feng, Guo asked with a light smile, "You came so early?" ”

Zhou Feng hurriedly said: "This is to enter the palace, of course you have to come early, if you come later, you may not be able to enter." ”

Guo Dan nodded, and looked up again, "Wow! This door is also a little smaller, and it is almost in time for the dog hole. ”

Just that door, Zhenxin can only pass one person at a time, and neither of them can squeeze in.

Zhou Feng said behind him: "What kind of identity are we, it is already the emperor's grace to let us in, how can we still be too small." ”

Guo Dan stared at it and saw that this person was a well-known jewelry merchant in the capital, Duan Juyi. I thought, I knew you were in this state of mind, why did I have to be so tired these days, alas... What a mediocrity!

After chatting a few words, he walked directly to the door, he was not here to participate in the canonization ceremony, but to work, so naturally there was no need to queue up.

As soon as he came to the front of the team, he saw a wealthy merchant throw ten taels of silver in a basket, and then nodded and said, "Several fathers-in-law have worked hard!" ”

The father-in-law at the door looked contemptuous, glanced at the basket, and then said, "Go in." ”

"Thank you, thank you."

Day! And give silver?

Guo Dan hurriedly braked the car, took out his wallet, counted it, a total of three taels, and still maintained the state of receiving living expenses, thinking, shouldn't I have to give ten taels! He stepped forward with a little trepidation.

A little eunuch immediately stopped in front of him and said, "What are you doing?" Line up. ”

Guo Dan hurriedly said: "I am Guo Dan, the son-in-law of the Kou family, and it was the Prime Minister who let me enter the door in advance." ”

"Oh, it turned out to be the son-in-law of the Kou family!"

The man at the door said, "Let him in." ”

For it was not to give any money. Guo Dan just raised his foot and was about to step into the threshold.

"Ahem!"

The father-in-law coughed twice suddenly, and then glanced at the basket.

"Yes, yes, I almost forgot!"

Guo Dan threw away all his monthly living expenses.

"Ahem, ahem!"

The father-in-law's cough was even more rapid, and he was heard moaning without illness: "Oops! I'm so old that I can't even breathe when I stand for half a night. ”

A little eunuch in the door immediately stepped forward and said, "Father-in-law, you have to pay attention to your body!" ”

At the same time, the door was blocked.

You eunuchs, you are really hateful, you are not satisfied, this is my living expenses for a month! Guo Dan endured his anger and said with a smile: "This father-in-law, I don't know the rules when I'm young, and I don't have so much money on me." ”

The father-in-law glanced at the team and said nothing.

The meaning is very obvious, borrow.

Guo Dan really didn't expect that Zhang Cheng's reputation was so difficult.

It's embarrassing this time!

At this time, Zhou Feng stepped forward, threw ten taels of silver into it, and said with a sneer: "I helped him give this money." ”

In this way, the father-in-law let him go, and asked a eunuch to take him to Zhang Cheng.

Although Guo Dan was a little annoyed, he wouldn't bother with a eunuch, because he knew that he couldn't care, he was very busy every day, and he had to accompany his wife if he wasn't busy, and these eunuchs were thinking about how to rectify people every day, which was their profession, so he also said sorry before he walked in, and he really couldn't afford to offend.

"Oops! Guo Dan, why did you come so late, our family is very busy today, and I can't take care of you. ”

When Zhang Cheng saw Guo Dan, he immediately complained.

Guo Dan pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Prime minister, I'm really sorry, I didn't know that I had to give silver when I entered the door, and I didn't bring so much silver with me, so I was delayed at the door for a while." ”

Zhang Cheng was even more dissatisfied: "You kid is usually very clever, why don't you even understand this rule, don't you look down on us." ”

"How dare I!" Guo Dan hurriedly explained.

He actually intended to sue, thinking that Zhang Cheng would help him, but how did he know that he was kicked on the iron plate.

It turns out that this kind of thing is actually an unwritten rule in the palace, even if you are summoned by the emperor, they want to collect this money, you have to give, as the eunuch Zhang Cheng, of course, absolutely supports, because he dares to break this rule, all the eunuchs in the palace will no longer support him, you are smashing our jobs!

The first few times Guo Dan entered the palace, he walked through the gate, and the forbidden army was guarding it, so he didn't need to give this money, which caused Guo Dan to not develop this good habit.

Fortunately, Zhang Cheng really didn't have the time to teach Guo Dan a lesson, as the eunuch of the palm seal of the celebrant eunuch, he was all responsible for this matter, he arranged for a eunuch to help Guo Dan, and then left.

Today, Guo Dan is mainly responsible for the painter and the banquet in the evening, so he first went to the painter's area.

I didn't think that Zhu Lizhi and Liu Xinmou were already sitting in their seats.

"Huh? When did you come, and why didn't I see you? ”

Guo Dan stepped forward and asked.

Liu Xinmou yawned and said, "We didn't enter the door from one place, how can you see it." ”

That's right, too! They were all sons of the Count, how could they go through that little door. Guo Dan snorted: "Where do you enter the door, don't you all lose clean and slippery, what's the difference." ”

Liu Xinmou immediately snorted a few times, and then said: "Guo Dan, when I am afraid of you, don't say this unlucky thing again, I am accumulating luck now, but you said, after this is done, I have to go to the casino to have a good time." ”

Guo Dan rolled his eyes and asked, "Didn't the little uncle come with you?" ”

"Don't mention him, I said that I would come together, but the guy slept like a pig, and he couldn't wake up no matter how he screamed."

Liu Xinmou glanced at Zhu Lizhi, who was gradually moving away from them, and said, "This person is in a hurry to come again, it's really difficult to be a brother with them." ”

Zhu Lizhi said lightly: "When you borrowed money, you didn't say that. ”

Liu Xinmou's face changed suddenly, and he said, "If it weren't for my brother, I wouldn't have complained." ”

Guo smiled lightly and asked, "How are you preparing?" ”

Zhu Lizhi just nodded, but it was not difficult to see that he was in a state of excitement at this time, because this stage was also rare for him, and he also wanted to try whether he could control such a big scene after learning new painting skills.

After chatting with them for a few words, Guo Dan went to look at the other painters.

A total of 68 painters were arranged, of which 70% were from the palace, and only 30% were from the Three Musketeers.

Seeing that there was no problem here, Guo Dan went to the agricultural and industrial zone again, it was good not to go, but when he went, he suddenly felt bitter, only to see the group of rich people standing in the corners, like a group of pigs, they could only watch from afar, and they couldn't even see the faces of the officials, let alone the emperor.

But they themselves were quite excited, they didn't feel aggrieved at all, they were talking like mosquitoes and hearing each other, and everyone had smiles on their faces, as if they were about to walk the red carpet, and the reality was that they had to stand here until dawn, until the whole ceremony was over, and it was very troublesome to even go to the hut.

Although this was facilitated by Guo Dan, he really doesn't understand it now, in his opinion, this is simply spending money to find guilt!

But since they didn't care, Guo Dan naturally didn't feel guilty, and he had already done everything he could.

Before dawn, there were more and more people gathered in the Huangji Palace, in addition to the officials and eunuchs of the Ministry of Rites, it was the Jinyi Guard, which turned out to be the emperor's honor guard.

But I have to say that the Jinyi Guards of the Ming Dynasty are indeed very handsome, and their uniforms are also the best-looking, glamorous, and the life of the Jinyi Guards is really worthy of the name.

At dawn, the canonization ceremony officially began.

Guo Dan looked at it for a while, and then began to doze off, because he really couldn't understand it, music was playing outside the door, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites held various books and put them in the pavilion or in front of the door.

The prince and the hundred officials stood on the east and west sides.

When the auspicious time came, the bell and drum were sounded, and the emperor, accompanied by the officials of the Ministry of Rites, entered the imperial palace and read the book that had just been placed.

Then the hundred officials and a group of "pigs" knelt down and knocked nine times, and shouted three times long live.

Later, another official read the book.

In fact, the emperor's appearance was the climax of the whole ceremony, especially those "pigs", who obviously saw it very clearly, but they all shed tears excitedly, and their mouths were full of words, probably reporting to their ancestors.

On the other hand, many officials had expressionless expressions and no joy on their faces, as if someone owed them three cents.

Guo Dan couldn't help but think to himself, if I were Wanli, I would let these officials squat in that corner, let those people stand here, and there would be no atmosphere at all.

After that, the official took the book to the harem to read it.

This made Guo Dan very regretful, he only wanted to see what this Zheng Guifei looked like, and such a small wish was not fulfilled.

After that, almost all the ceremonies were carried out on the harem side, and Wanli also went to the queen mother to salute accompanied by hundreds of officials.

You can't go there.

Guo Dan also took the opportunity to go to Zhu Lizhi's side again, only to see Zhu Lizhi sitting in front of the five drawing boards, still waving his brush, and Liu Xinmou on the side pointed to a place in the painting while saying something.

Guo Dan quietly came to them and stretched out his hand, and found that Zhu Lizhi's scholar was carefully drying some of the paintings that had been painted, and he was secretly shocked in his heart, it turned out that he had already painted so much, and he knew that there were still five paintings on the drawing board.

Standing and watching for a while, Guo Dan suddenly changed his opinion of Liu Xinmou a lot, this guy is really a genius, he can even tell which person's nose looks like, this kind of memory is really rare in the world. Of course, Zhu Lizhi is not far behind, just with Liu Xinmou's mouth, he can draw, and the pen is very fast, without thinking.

Both of them were in a very excited state, and they didn't notice Guo Dan standing behind them at all.
