Liu Yuru listened, quietly looked at Gao Jun, and there was some anxiety on her face that could not be concealed. Li Shichang didn't think it was a big deal, and put a problem on Gao Jun.

On an occasion like today, no matter what the ability of Qianzhou Assassin Shi and the official reputation are, with the whole family of Harrier Guogong and the people of Xinglufang present, no one is destined to object.

But Gao Jun could already see her attitude from Liu Yuru's fleeting expression.

What is this?

A group of people discussed openly at the celebratory family banquet of the Harrier Guogong, and let the relatives of the Harrier Guogong take the high position of the prince's concubine. It's not good, who is not afraid of many things, will really dare to discuss this matter at tomorrow's court meeting.

Gao Jun got up, looked around at everyone present, and said, "Your Excellency, this matter is extremely inappropriate, please don't say a word again!" ”

Qianzhou seems to be an ominous place, it has been a place of exile since ancient times, needless to say, but the few people who have intersected with it recently, both men and women, have not ended well, Gao Jun thinks so.

Or that several people who are known to have a bad outcome are associated with it.

Ma Xun counted one, Lu Shi counted one, Li Chengqian counted one, and her mother Qing Ruoying suffered from a serious eye disease as soon as she arrived in Qianzhou and was almost blind, and Mrs. Cui was also heartbroken there and was willing to live in Xizhou.

At the moment, except for two people, it seems to be an exception, one is Su Yin, the crown princess who struggled out of Qianzhou, and the other is Gao Shenxing.

On such a happy day as today, Qianzhou was suddenly mentioned, and for a while, even if Gao Jun did not have a clear judgment in his heart, it was absolutely no good to know this matter.

Master Chu thinks that the prince's concubine is from the third grade, and the high trial line is the fourth grade, maybe Gao Jun doesn't let people mention it again, because he is afraid of causing rumors in the government and the opposition, which makes some sense.

So, Chu Suiliang mentioned again that there are several positions in the court that are short of people.

At present, there are several positions such as the Huangmen Squire, the Servant of the Ministry of Officials, the Taichang Shaoqing, the Taifu Shaoqing, and the Deputy Protector of the Xizhou Metropolitan Protectorate, all of which can be compared to the upper rank of the four grades of the Zhongzhou Thorn History.

These ministries are comparable to those of the Qianzhou Thorn History, and can be achieved through personnel adjustments that are not cumbersome.

Chu Suiliang believes that the Gaoshen Xing has achieved remarkable results in fighting drought in Qianzhou, and it is not a surprise to transfer him to Chang'an to be a Beijing official at the same level, and it can be regarded as a secret promotion.

Fan Ying was sitting next to Liu Yuru, and immediately stood up at this time, raised the wine and reproached Master Chu, "Uncle Chu, look at you, Jun won't let you mention it anymore, but you still dare to talk nonsense!" ”

Shang Shuling, a lady with a very high status second only to Liu Yuru in the house, spoke with the dignified Zhongshu Ling in this tone that did not mind at all, and the relationship between the two families was self-evident.

Chu Suiliang not only didn't mind, but was very happy, he laughed, raised his wine and drank a big glass, "Since Ying's niece said it, it was the official's conflict, so let's punish myself with a big glass!" ”

Fan Ying said, "Uncle Chu, you are not allowed to mention this matter again in the court!" Chu Suiliang agreed again and again.

Most of the officials stayed in Yongningfang until the curfew was about to start, and then they got up to say goodbye.

But the excitement of Yongning Fang has just begun, and the old storyteller of Xiuxiangfang at the other end of the city has also arrived, and his daughter, Yang Erni, who had collided with Shang Shuling on horseback not long ago, also came, and met the sixth lady Li Wanqing on the street in the evening.

Subsequently, Yang Erni was led into the Shangshuling Mansion, and when she arrived, there were people from the Xinglufang Gao Mansion who planned to stay, and someone introduced Yang Erni to say that the other young man was the young city lord of the original Futu City, and his wife Nubiya was also present.

So she's a person with no identity.

Shang Shuling's wives didn't let her be restrained, and took her to the back house to play, and before leaving, the people in the house heard that the old man was going to talk about the whole night, and asked Yang Erni to bring the wine and food to her father.

……

In Xizhou, the ranch village did not know the grand occasion of the Harrier State Mansion in Yongningfang, Chang'an, and the news that Gao Jun had become Shang Shuling had only been in Xizhou for a long time.

At this small family-style gathering initiated by chance because Guo Xiaoke passed by, most of the capital escorted Guo Xiaoke to see his wife Cui Ying again.

Mrs. Cui dresses very plainly and does not wear any jewelry, but in the eyes of Lord Guo, she is more charming than when Zhenguan arrived in Xizhou at the beginning of the eighteenth year.

He thanked Cui Ying for her hard work in taking care of his wife and children.

The news that Lirong was brought back from Chang'an surprised Lord Guo too, but there was nothing to say.

Gao Jun wrote him a letter from Chang'an, expressing his intention to transfer Guo Beizhao to Chang'an, and Gao Jun planned to let Beizhao take up the post of another military squire and ask for his opinion.

As Shang Shuling, it won't be too difficult to install someone in the military department. But Guo Zhizhao said that he was gone, and only his father was on the side of Xizhou, and he was a little worried.

Besides, as long as he goes to the military department, some people will think that this must be with the help of Shang Shuling's power, don't help Gao Jun and cause him trouble.

There is also the fact that Mrs. Liu has just given birth to a child, so it is not appropriate to move more, so Guo Zhizhao decided not to go.

Cui Ying said, "That's a pity, Gao Jun has never been nepotism, why delay the future of the edict because of this!" Lord Guo, why don't you persuade and wait for the edict, but you are a big deal! ”

Cui said that if it is because of the child's concerns, then the Zhao and Liu family can go to Chang'an first, and the child will be taken by her first, there are Tiantian and Sheji, and Mrs. Cui doesn't care about pulling one more.

Master Guo said with a smile, "I'm just afraid that I'm willing, and the senior brother in Qianzhou doesn't agree, the virtuous sister-in-law has taken care of their mother and son for so long, which has made Guo very unhappy!" Guo borrowed flowers to offer Buddha today, and he must pay tribute to his sister-in-law's wife with three cups! ”

……

Qianzhou Thorn Shi Mansion, the guard guarding the door saw that someone was running over from the end of the street and shouted, "Hurry up, go back to Lord Thorn Shi, there are two young ladies in Chang'an, and the carriage has just entered the city!" ”

Soon, a group of guards escorted the car to the gate of the house, and two beautifully dressed women got out of the car.

Lilan is the first time to come to Qianzhou, not as familiar as Su Yin, this place that Lirong has also been to really makes her a little nervous, as soon as she gets out of the car, she asks:

"Sister Su, I, I haven't seen any big scenes, don't make me laugh for a while, otherwise if Jun blames us for coming here on our own initiative, I will let you be held responsible!"

"Sister, do you know you're scared at this time? If you hadn't proposed it three times and twice, I wouldn't have thought of pulling you to Qianzhou. ”

Lilan said, "Hmph, I'm not afraid of anything, and visiting Lord Qianzhou is not to alter the bottom book." As he was talking, someone had already come out of the Assassin's Mansion, and Lilan hurriedly stopped.

……

Junzhou Thorn Mansion, because it is very close to Chang'an, Su Miao, the Thorn History, was the first to learn the news of Chang'an, and Shangshu made Gao Jun win the title of Duke of the Kingdom, which really surprised Su Thorn History, he was too young!

Niece Su Yin has just come to Junzhou, and she also brought Shang Shuling's ninth lady, Su Miao can see that her niece must be in a bad mood these days.

They saw Li Tai, the king of Shunyang, and went to the prince's fief to see it, and then they didn't say anything and hurried to Qianzhou.

Say they're public, right? I didn't ask a few words about Junzhou at all. It doesn't look like they have any private affairs, it seems that they went to Qianzhou in this name.

After finishing his official duties, Su Miao got up and rushed to the Shunyang Palace, reporting the news to the Shunyang King.

After listening to Su Miao's words, Li Tai said, "This king doesn't think it's so abrupt, you look at how many major events have happened in Datang after Gao Jun became Shang Shuling?" There are big things, there are small things, each of which is unexpected and reasonable. ”

Su Miao said, what the prince said is no different! He recommended his cousin, and no one said he was favoritism. pulled down the prince's right concubine, Xu Jingzong, and no one said that he was ruthless. King Fu killed 300 precious dogs and left Beijing happily. Li Shiqian has to lie down even if he is a tiger, and the eldest grandson Wuji has to be busy if he is a first-class prince.

The two were friends in distress, and their words were casual, and the king of Shunyang said to Su Miao,

"This king can sit here today and study some knowledge, without having to smell those chickens and ducks, in fact, thanks to Shang Shuling."

Su Miao asked, "Lord Wang, I don't know if the director of the outer palace, my niece, and the ninth lady rushed over, did you say anything important?" ”

Wang Ye said, "The late sister-in-law of this king didn't say anything, but she went to the front and back mountains with Mrs. Jiu to see the scenery, but she chatted with me about the "Chronicles of the Ground", and said that this is a good book, better than many classics that tell the way of power and conspiracy. ”

……

Dengzhou Assassin Mansion, Assassin Liu Dunxing, Zhou Sima Buping, and Recordkeeper Ma Dafa, the three of them were drinking together, and they also learned about Shang Shuling's knighthood.

Liu Dunxing said, "This official is not strange at all, this official is not ambiguous, but this official serves the Harrier Guogong alone!" ”

Ma Buping said, "Alas! It's just that the shepherd team who went to Leizhou with us, why is Shang Shuling not allowed to bring him to Dengzhou alone, and he feels a little reluctant to do his job! ”

Ma Dafa said, "Shang Shuling must have a reason for doing this, and besides, Lord Liu did not treat them badly, and he arranged appropriate ministries before leaving, and it was not easy for hundreds of people to be arranged, who could do it so well if it wasn't for Lord Liu." ”

Liu Dunxing said, "This and this official have not seen Shang Shuling for a long time, and in Leizhou, this official looks at those shepherd guards, and everyone has a little shadow of Shang Shuling, and they do not take their posts...... I'm sorry. ”

……

In Xizhou, the Lu family wore pastoral clothes and went to the pasture to boil water after coming out of the old village.

This work is already light for a female shepherd, I heard that Liu Yuru, the eldest lady of Shang Shuling, has also worked in the pasture, and Fan Ying, Cui Yan and others have fed the horses, so it is much worse than their own situation.

Lu believes that Liu Caixia recorded and arranged her own errand, and it should be her own sentence "Sister Cui" that played a role.

But while she was boiling water, she began to worry about whether Cui Ying would have follow-up advice to the Chief Pastor of Tianshan Mu or Liu Lushi behind her back, which would not be good.

Guo Xiaoke didn't forget to call Cui Ying after drinking a drink, so if Cui Ying still remembered the old grudge with him in Qianzhou, he only had to hand a word to anyone, and the little shoes could crush him to death.

She only begged Mrs. Cui not to be a small-bellied chicken intestine, so she hurriedly carried the kettle and went to the various stables to deliver water.

Halfway through, I ran into a man, sweating profusely and pulling a cart of horse manure, and was putting down his hands and sitting on the handlebars to rest. He had a dirty handkerchief around his neck, and his back was only half a foot away from the spiky horse manure in the bucket.

This person is Xu Jingzong, the former prince's right concubine.

Lu heard that Mu Zi, who was in the same stable as Xu Jingzong, did not lose his strength, but he never helped push the cart - he only loaded the cart, and Xu Jingzong did not dare to squeak.

Xu Jingzong was thirsty, and when he looked up, he saw Lu Shi holding a pot in one hand and a porcelain bowl in the other, and beckoned to her, "Mrs. Lu, you came just in time, come to give my brother a bowl of water." ”

Lu Shi refused to accept his support, and pouted, "The water is sent to the stable, and it is here...... How do you let your horse manure stain the bowl? ”

Xu Jingzong said, "We are all people in distress, why bother me!" The stable shepherd bullied me, you dare to be a girl! ”

Lu Shi shot back, "Female stream, isn't your mother a female streamer?" ”

A shepherd came running from afar, "I'm dying of thirst, give me a bowl of water to drink." Lu Shi poured it to him in a panic, drank it and ran away.

Xu Jingzong said angrily, "How did he become? It's not a stable either! ”

Lu Shi said, "Can you compare with him?" Without power, you're no better than a donkey. ”

Seeing that Xu Jingzong's breath was uneven, Lu Shi said, "If you are not convinced, you can pull up the car and trot out, let alone here, go to the old village and the old lady can boil water alone and feed you to drink." ”

How could Xu Jingzong have this ability, he looked at the car, he was so angry that the Lu family had already gotten up and walked away with his head held high.

He said to him without looking back, "Die, Shang Shuling is so young, you can't get through!" Dare to compete with my mother, I'm dying of thirst......"

……

Shaya City, Cao Da, the steward of Wentang, hired a carriage from Tingzhou City and came back, and lay behind closed doors in the house for half a month, and was stabbed by Lirong in the dark, almost stabbing his stomach.

I don't know what she stabbed with something, although the wound was only a deep eye, but it was never better.

"You just wait, you don't know what to lift! Shang Shuling didn't have any kind of woman around him, he had forgotten you a long time ago, and he dared to take the old identity to Lao Tzu! Isn't Lao Tzu worthy of you? ”

Cao Da's sullen loss here in Lirong is not small, looking at the entire Shaya City, including the gold mine of the eldest brother Xie Guang, who dares to treat Cao Da like this!

In the past, Cao Da never dared to think crookedly about the women in the Xizhou Metropolitan Governor's family except for envy, and occasionally thought of one of them, and would only be angry with his daughter-in-law.

But this time, the blow that Lirong brought to Cao Da was heart-wrenching, a village woman who opened a warm soup dared to look down on Master Cao. Cao Da sometimes thinks, how could this master be pierced casually by you! If you stab me once, you will need a ruby ring to pay for it!

Just because he didn't dare to say anything to anyone, no matter how drastic the means were, he didn't dare to use them on Lirong, the fire on Cao's big belly shifted to his throat, and the swelling in his throat was almost dripping, and he couldn't eat the food. Cao Da was so hungry that he couldn't do it, and he didn't have the heart to calculate Lirong's affairs.

Later, a traveling doctor arrived in Shaya City, and hurriedly invited him in for treatment, he spread Cao Da's hair, slowly combed it from the beginning, and found that Cao Da's heart gave birth to a strand of red and purple hair, saying that it was a seedling of throat poison.

The tour doctor lit the moxa fire, burning from the tip of the red hair to the root of the hair little by little, Cao Da only felt a pain in his heart, "Ah! With a bang, the swelling in his throat broke, and a lot of pus and blood flowed, and then he was able to eat.

The doctor said, "My lord, you must be more open-minded, and don't think about things that adults shouldn't think, otherwise you will have a toothache, even your lips will be swollen, and you won't be able to eat." ”
