Chapter 301: Coming to the Yang Family
Hearing the words, Xiao Lotus Ye was amazed, and asked with longing: "Which official family?" Where do the officials live in Luoyang City? ”
Cui Wenqing said with a smile: "The official family lives in the Luoyang Palace in the northwest corner of Luoyang, and you can reach the main gate of the palace by walking north along this street and crossing the Tianjin Bridge." ”
Lotus Ye listened to it with great pleasure, and only after half a sound did she murmur: "Uncle, you said that if I could go to the palace one day, how good it would be!" ”
Faced with the little girl's shocking ideals, Cui Wenqing couldn't help but smile dumbly, and said with a heavy bow: "Don't worry, there will be a chance, when I, Cui Wenqing, am famous in Luoyang, I will definitely take you to the palace to see it." ”
As he spoke, the carriage and horses had already walked through Zhuque Avenue and came to Tianjin Qiaotou.
Cui Wenqing and Lotus Leaf stood on the wheel and looked at it, and it could be seen that the Luoshui was flowing eastward not far away, and a white stone bridge was draped in a golden-red glow across the water, just like a Changhong lying wave.
On the other side of the stone bridge, there is a towering red city wall, which can be seen that the palaces in the city wall are stacked on top of each other and cannot see the end, just like the palace built on the nine heavens.
The master and servant stood still and admired for a long time, and then urged the coachman to continue to set off and walked into the Jishan Fang on the east side of Tianjin Bridge.
Jishan Fang is separated by a bridge from the imperial city, and there are many important ministers of the imperial court, big families, noble clansmen, and the well-known Yang family also lives in this square.
Speaking of the Yang family, everyone in the whole world knows about it.
The Yang family was born in Linzhou City in the north, not far from the Zhe family who was born in Fuzhou, and they are both Jiangmen families on the border of the Tang Dynasty.
And the two families are intermarried for generations, just like a family, and to this day, the two families of Zheyang are also echoing each other in political affairs and military, and they support the military like the two walls of Daqi.
The idiom Yang Shou Zhi Gong refers to the fact that the Yang family is good at defense, and the Zhi family is good at attacking.
However, as far as the truth is concerned, the Yang family's political status is obviously higher than that of the folded family.
Because Qi Taizu raised troops in Luoyang, Yang Yanzhao, the head of the Yang family, was a general under Qi Taizu, and the two sides formed a neck-to-neck friendship.
Yang Yanzhao made countless contributions in the process of swallowing the world in Daqi, and even the Zhe family, who was guarding the northern Xinjiang, was persuaded to surrender by himself, so that the Zhe family returned to Daqi.
When the Great Qi pacified the world and rewarded meritorious deeds, Yang Yanzhao was listed among the eighteen ministers, knighted as the Duke of England, and hereditary replacement.
Now the head of the Yang family is named Yang Wenguang, the son of Yang Yanzhao, and he is the privy envoy, which is equivalent to being in charge of the entire military circle of the Great Qi Dynasty.
And his three sons Yang Huairen, Yang Huaiying, and Yang Huaiyu are all heroes.
Among them, the eldest son, Yang Huairen, is the deputy of Luoyang Mansion, and he is also the deputy of Bao Qingtian, who is deeply loved by the people.
The second son, Yang Huaiying, is an official and is the Sima of Hangzhou on Jiangnan Road.
The third son, Yang Huaiyu, is a rare civil servant from the Yang family, and he is completely dependent on the imperial examination to enter the office.
To explain it in terms of a modern official position, that is, the director of the First Bureau of the Cadres of the Central Organization Department is very good.
Outside of here, Yang Huaiyu is the father-in-law of Zhezhao's sister Zhexiu, and Yang Huaiyu's eldest son Yang Shikui is Zhexiu's husband.
In addition, Yang Wenguang also has a son and a daughter.
One son is the fourth son Yang Huaijin, Cui Wenqing heard Zhi Zhao say that this person used to be the youngest general in Daqi, but unfortunately he died in the war against Liao.
As for Yang Wenguang's only daughter, she was Zhe Zhao's mother, who also died with the death of Zhe Zhao's husband.
The coachman smelled the general direction of the Yang family, and drove the carriage to find the way.
Walking to the middle street of Jishanfang, you will see a majestic mansion suddenly into your eyes.
The wide door of the mansion is high wall, solemn and simple, the word "Yang family" is written on the aconite door, there are two stone lions standing outside the door, and the four armored warriors are majestic and majestic, and it looks indescribably majestic.
Seeing Deyang Mansion, the coachman stopped the carriage with a sigh and whispered into the carriage: "Uncle, Yang Mansion has arrived." ”
Cui Wenqing lifted the curtain and walked out, and couldn't help but secretly admire it when he glanced at it.
People say that the Yang family is the first gate of Daqi, and today it is really extraordinary.
However, this kind of pomp and circumstance is the result of countless Yang Jiaerlang's bloody battles, and it is used properly and with peace of mind.
Don't think about it, Cui Wenqing jumped out of the carriage, motioned for the lotus leaf to wait in place, and walked over slowly, and said to the guards guarding the door of the mansion: "This military master, under Cui Wenqing, specially came to see the master of the Yang Mansion, and asked you to pass it on his behalf." ”
The guards glanced Cui Wenqing up and down, and there was a sense of arrogance in his eyes: "How can you say that you can see it?" Is there a prayer post? ”
"Excuse me?" Cui Wenqing was really stunned and explained: "I am a relative of the Yang family, why do I need to pay respects." ”
Hearing this, the guards looked around at the soldiers on the left and right, and laughed teasingly: "Look, it's a poor relative who came out of nowhere, and this month is the seventh time." ”
As soon as the words fell, the soldiers all burst into laughter, looking at Cui Wenqing's gaze with indescribable disdain.
Cui Wenqing was angry and laughed, and was about to speak, but the guard was already smiling with a heavy face, and said coldly: "This is the home of the minister, the high gate of the imperial court, how can you be allowed to confess your relatives arbitrarily!" I advise you to get out of here and don't mess around. ”
"Master Jun, I am really a relative of the Yang family!" Cui Wenqing smiled helplessly.
The guard slapped the saber on his waist and said sharply: "Boy, if you don't leave, don't blame us for being polite!" ”
"Well, you forced me!" Cui Wenqing said secretly in his heart, and suddenly said in a straight voice: "I am Cui Wenqing, the husband of the Governor of Zhenwu Army, and I am also the grandson-in-law of Yang Shumi's envoy, do you dare to stop me!" ”
When these words fell, the guard was stunned for a moment, and then his face showed surprise: "What, you are the husband of the Metropolitan Governor?" ”
Cui Wenqing nodded, and said without hesitation: "So I advise you to tell me quickly, if Yang Shumi's envoy blames him at that time, I'm afraid that you won't be able to eat and walk around!" ”
The guard was like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on, so shocked that he almost jumped up, and he hurriedly apologized with a smile: "I didn't expect Your Excellency to be Cui Gongzi, the little one who has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai and please forgive me, I'll go inside to tell you." After that, he quickly turned around and walked away.
Seeing this, Cui Wenqing couldn't cry or laugh.
It seems that the name of his own lady is easy to use, it is really who in the world does not know the king, just the two words of Zhaozhao have scared these little soldiers into weak legs and feet, and they are full of urine.
As for his name Cui Wenqing, it is really okay not to mention it.
But he believes that one day, Cui Wenqing's three words will definitely be louder than Zhezhao.
And taking the imperial examination was the first step he took.
