Chapter 408: Asking for Errands
At this moment, Dingjun Mountain in Guanghe Building is already the beginning. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
There are two light balls hanging on the left and right sides of the stage, illuminating all sides, and on the door with the word 'outing' written on one side of the stage, the actors take the stage one by one.
The dignitaries on the second and third floors looked condescendingly at the stage.
In the private room on the third floor, Lin Yanchao and several colleagues were talking and laughing, and it was also very interesting to watch the play.
As soon as the door opened, Liu Yukui was full of red faces, leading several other colleagues of the Hanlin Academy such as Xiao Liangyou, Zhang Maoxiu also arrived, today in order to celebrate Liu Yukui, Lin Yanchao entered the cabinet, and the officials in the review hall of the Hanlin Academy, except for those who really have important things to do, came seven or eight out of ten.
However, the three people of Yu Menglin, Wang Yingxuan, and Deng Yizan did not arrive.
When these people saw Lin Yanchao, they smiled and quipped: "Zong Hai, you have done such a big thing today!" ”
"Yes, it has spread in the yamen of the household department, and a scholar has no fear of thousands of troublesome martial artists, I really admire it."
"The Son of Heaven gave you a unicorn suit, this is the first one in our review hall, and several lecturers have also served for many years, and the lecture is effective, and the Son of Heaven only gave you a unicorn suit, where can it compare to you."
Everyone is envious of the unicorn suit given to Lin Yanchao by the Son of Heaven, and Lin Yanchao is also happy in his heart, but he said: "Thank you for your kindness, but if we continue to chat, this banquet will not be eaten." ”
Liu Yukui laughed and said, "Yes, let's talk while eating." ”
The Hanlin people applauded, so everyone sat down. This seat is one seat per person, and they sit facing the stage, so it is also for the convenience of watching the play.
Liu Yukui ordered immediately, and everyone saw that he ordered dozens of dishes in one go.
Everyone said, "It's too luxurious, it's too luxurious." It's time for Zhiqing and Zong Hai to break the bank. ”
Liu Yukui smiled and said: "Our colleagues are gathered, if we only serve ordinary dishes, it is not in line with our identity." ”
When he was in the Hanlin Academy, Lin Yanchao knew that Liu Yukui was good at pomp and circumstance, so he went with him. Liu Yukui ordered them one by one, and the shopkeeper nodded in response, and asked Liu Yukui what wine he wanted.
Liu Yukui smiled and said, "I want you to age it at your own time." ”
Liu Yukui smiled and said to all the Hanlins: "Everyone, this yellow rice wine brewed by Guanghelou is better than the internal French wine in the palace, everyone will not get drunk today!" ”
Lin Yanchao knew that the wine sold by officials in the Ming Dynasty was very poor, so private merchants, officials and scholars often made their own wine.
After the shopkeeper left, the sumptuous dishes were served by the maid on a plate, and the sea and land were served on the table, all of which were rare delicacies.
When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but say: "Zhiqing, today's banquet is worth at least thirty taels!" ”
Liu Yukui smiled and said: "Where is thirty taels enough, but don't worry about my money and Zong Hai's money, do you know why I chose to gather in Guanghe Lou Ya today?" ”
Everyone shook their heads and said, "I don't know." ”
Liu Yukui said with a smile: "The owner of this Guanghe Building, Chen Zhiwen, the governor of Wuwei Prefecture, is seeking to be the same knowledge of Ren Linqing, and is now going to the yamen who can speak in Beijing, throwing money all over the ground, you said that we came here for dinner today, will he accept the money from me?" ”
After hearing this, everyone suddenly said in their hearts, Liu Yukui is playing this idea, we are here to slaughter fat sheep today.
Huang Fengxiang said: "I see, Linqing Tongzhi is fat and lacking, acting Linqing banknote customs, Chen Zhiwen's heart is really not small!" ”
Lin Yanchao said: "What Brother Ming Zhou said is extremely true, the Linqing banknote pass is the first of the eight banknotes in the world, and the tax and silver payment is more than the Chongwenmen banknote pass, and the silver that passes through every year is like a river. ”
Liu Yukui smiled and said: "Exactly, this Chen Zhiwen has been an official for one term, and he has handled so much silver, and I am stuck in the yamen and have nowhere to show it, so if I don't spend some money for him, wouldn't I be a disadvantage to myself?" ”
Everyone laughed.
At this time, Xiao Liangyou said: "Brother Zhiqing is laughing and laughing, but I heard that Chen Zhiwen is going to clear the banknotes, but it is not easy. ”
"All officials below the third grade will be decided by the officials, and Chen Zhiwen's Linqing Tongzhi's text will be approved soon, did Brother Xiao hear any rumors about this?"
Xiao Liang nodded a little and said: "Exactly, the household department has taken a fancy to the banknote customs and intends to return the right to collect taxes to the central government, so I ask the imperial court not to use the local government to get involved in the banknotes, and prepare to send officials from this yamen, and a head of the household department will act as the banknote customs." At present, the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households are fighting a lawsuit over this. ”
A Hanlin said with a smile: "Everyone, the officialdom promotion is not enough to talk about in detail for three days and three nights, this Chen Zhiwen has come to Beijing for activities, and he will come here to toast in a while, you don't need to talk when you arrive, just treat it normally." When he saw that we looked cold, he would make up a generous gift later. ”
After this man finished speaking, everyone in the hall couldn't help laughing, and then laughed and scolded together: "Isn't this a waste of food?" ”
"Why not!"
There are a few Hanlin who are honest and honest officials who can't listen to it, but they also know that this is an officialdom atmosphere.
Soon a middle-aged man walked in, although he was inconspicuous, but he walked with his head held high, which was in stark contrast to the shopkeeper who bowed his head and bent over on the side.
There is no need to guess that this person is Chen Zhiwen, the governor of Wuwei Prefecture.
As soon as Chen Zhiwen entered the room, he said: "I am really flattered that all the doctors can come to the next field!" ”
Zhizhou is the fifth grade, even if he is a foreign official, he is worthy of the sixth grade of the Beijing official, which is higher than the official position of Hanlin present. But Hanlin Guan is such a noble existence, he doesn't even need to get up, he can just sit and answer the salute, and this is still for the sake of Chen Zhiwen being a Jinshi.
Chen Zhiwen said a few words about the scene, and immediately toasted with the Hanlin people present one by one.
Sure enough, many Hanlin looked cold. Chen Zhiwen is also good-tempered and not angry at all.
Lin Yanchao knew that this lawsuit of the Linqing Customs, in the end, still had to be ruled by the cabinet, although it could not affect the result for Hanlin, but how to say that the Hanlin Yuan was also a cabinet official, even if it was not good, it would definitely not be offended.
However, for an official like Lin Yanchao who is in Wenyuan Pavilion and can participate in the pre-privy affairs, this meal is not so delicious.
Lin Yanchao thought that Chen Zhiwen was going to go to Zhang Maoxiu, after all, his father had the highest power. But in the end, the other party stopped in front of him, and said enthusiastically: "Zhuangyuanlang, Chen has really admired the name for a long time, and I didn't expect to meet here, which is really a blessing for three lives." ”
This is completely the rhetoric of the lower officials to meet the upper officials.
The thin-skinned ones couldn't stand it at all, but the gongs and drums sounded under the stage, which was very noisy, and the two could only talk closely, and others couldn't hear it.
Lin Yanchao said: "Chen Zhoumu is really serious, the little brother can't afford it!" ”
"I can afford it, Zhuangyuanlang is nineteen years old and three yuan and the first not to mention, just enter the officialdom is worth Wenyuan Pavilion, and today I have to be given a unicorn suit by the Son of Heaven.
After speaking, Chen Zhiwen picked up a glass of wine and drank it all. (To be continued.) )
