Chapter 902: Seated

When Zhu Ping'an walked into the pergola, other officials of Yuwang's Mansion also came to the banquet one after another.

Since Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty to expel the Meng Yuan Dynasty and restore the meal system, the general official formal occasions are the use of the meal system, and this time the reception banquet is no exception, and the meal system is also adopted.

The separate meal system is more elaborate than the joint meal system, and there are more rules, and it is easy to distinguish between the primary and secondary and the status level.

In the pergola, the main seat of Yuwang is set on a wooden platform six points above the ground, and the seats of the subordinate officials of Yuwang's Mansion are arranged in order according to their official positions and qualifications, and each official has a separate table and chair.

The length and width of the table are the same as those in the Han and Tang dynasties, which are about two feet wide and three feet long, but the height is different from that in the Han and Tang dynasties, and the tables at this time are much higher than those in the Han and Tang dynasties.

King Yu's main table is three points longer and three points wider than the table under the stage, which is the rule of banquets in the Ming Dynasty.

"Lord Zhu, please come here."

The positions of the reception banquet were all set in advance, and Steward Liu led Zhu Ping'an to sit in the second place in the west.

"Thank you."

After Zhu Ping'an sat down, he thanked him.

"Your Excellency, you are polite, my lord, sit down for a while, use some tea, and the feast will soon begin." After Steward Liu ushered Zhu Ping'an to his position and sat down, he instructed the maid to pour Zhu Ping'an a cup of tea.

"There is labor." Zhu Ping'an thanked him.

Not long after Zhu Ping'an sat down, the other subordinate officials of Yuwang's Mansion were also in place one after another, and they were all led to sit down.

Soon, on the east side opposite Zhu Ping'an, there were also officials in the second position.

is the second in the same place, sitting face to face with Zhu Ping'an, with a distance of more than two meters in the middle.

Sitting down was a middle-aged official about 30 years old, who looked much younger than Gao Gong, with a hearty and heroic face, a very tall figure, feeling about 1.8 meters, with a tiger's back and an ape waist, wearing an official robe with a bit of uninhibited and dignified feeling, holding the cuffs, revealing an arm, the black hair on the arm was quite strong, holding a folding fan, while twisting his beard and laughing with people, while fanning the wind.

After the hearty and heroic official sat down, he found that Zhu Ping'an, a young face sitting opposite him, did not say anything, he was sitting so far ahead, the hearty official couldn't help but look at Zhu Ping'an in surprise, and then suddenly realized, and then nodded to Zhu Ping'an and said hello.

Zhu Ping'an smiled and returned the salute.

After the hearty and heroic official finished greeting Zhu Ping'an, he was stopped and chatted by the officials in the back seat.

Looking at the hearty and heroic official opposite, Zhu Ping'an was slightly curious, who is this person, there was no camera in ancient times, and the painting was seriously distorted, just looking at the face, Zhu Ping'an couldn't match this official with a figure in history.

Soon after the hearty and heroic official on the opposite side took a seat, someone at the front of Zhu Ping'an's row also sat down.

This is an official who is about forty years old, looks similar to Gao Gong's grade, has a thin figure, a dignified appearance, and is not inferior to Zhang Juzheng, but he is older, with a goatee, and the bookish atmosphere on his body is very strong, like a walking bookshelf Yes, it gives people a feeling of being talented and elegant, and rich in learning.

Sitting on top of himself, he is naturally an official whose official position is no less than his own, and his qualifications are older than his own.

In Yuwangfu, there are only a handful of such officials, except for Gao Gong, it is Chen Yiqin, or Yin Shidan and others.

"In Xia Zhu Ping'an, I have seen this adult, but I don't know what to call it."

After the official sat down, Zhu Ping'an took the initiative to get up and salute the official at the top.

"Oh, you're the new Lord Zhu Ping'an." The first official looked Zhu Ping'an up and down with a pair of eyes, nodded noncommittally, raised his hand and arched his hand while sitting in his position, and said lightly, "This official Chen Yiqin." ”

Chen Yiqin.

It turns out that you are Chen Yiqin, Zhu Ping'an bowed his head, and once again bowed his hand to Chen Yiqin to formally salute, "I've seen Lord Chen." ”

"Lord Zhu is polite." Chen Yiqin arched his hand and replied lightly.

Regarding Chen Yiqin's slightly cold attitude, Zhu Ping'an didn't care.

Zhu Ping'an knew that Chen Yiqin was a courtier who wholeheartedly supported King Yu's ascendancy, was loyal to King Yu, and thought about King Yu in everything.

He is young and has just entered the officialdom, except for the slight fame of Qingci, he has not done much to be affirmed by everyone else.

Green words?!

For the saints who have the need for Jiao, the green words have a role, but for His Royal Highness King Yu, what is the role of the green words.

Moreover, because of a pair of chopsticks, he was ordered by the saint to tell the story of the bachelor of Yuwangfu's house, which has also spread at this time.

Everyone didn't dare to criticize Jiajing, but when it came to Zhu Ping'an, there was no pressure.

The imperial diet has no chopsticks, and eats meat with his hands, and because of this, he was reassigned to the prince's palace to lecture on bachelors?!

How ridiculous and ridiculous this is.

A person who grabs meat with his hands can actually serve as a prince lecturer?!

I believe Chen Yiqin has also heard similar criticism.

Yuwang's Mansion waiter lectured on bachelors, this is an important position in Yuwang's Mansion, and it is one of the four most important auxiliary ministers of Yuwang.

If you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates.

The same truth has been the same throughout the ages, although there was no such famous saying in ancient times, but the truth is the same.

Chen Yiqin probably doubted that he could take on this important responsibility.

Actually, if you were yourself, it would be the same.

Therefore, Zhu Ping'an didn't care about Chen Yiqin's coldness at all.

As long as he shows that he can take on this position, Chen Yiqin's attitude will definitely change.

It is Chen Yiqin's lifelong wish to unite all the forces that can be united, abandon the mustard, use the strength in one place, and assist Yuwang to become a great treasure.

In fact, what Zhu Ping'an didn't know was that there was another reason why Chen Yiqin had a cold attitude towards Zhu Ping'an.

At the beginning, the rumors of the wind direction were that Zhu Ping'an would be promoted and moved to the post of Bachelor of King Jing's Mansion.

When he heard this rumor, Chen Yiqin classified Zhu Ping'an into King Jing's camp.

can wait until the holy decree comes down, but Zhu Ping'an suddenly became a lecturer in Yuwang's Mansion, which made Chen Yiqin wonder if Zhu Ping'an was in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and even suspected that Zhu Ping'an was a chess piece that King Jing deliberately entered Yuwang's Mansion.

After Chen Yiqin sat down, Gao Gong also came slowly, and to Zhu Ping'an's surprise, Zhang Juzheng also came along.

Zhang Juzheng is not a subordinate official of Yuwangfu at present.

Moreover, what surprised Zhu Ping'an even more was that Zhang Juzheng was still very popular in Yuwangfu, which was better than Gao Gong's popularity, and many officials greeted Zhang Juzheng, and even Chen Yiqin also bowed his head to Zhang Juzheng.
