The cold rain in early winter was sporadic and not very heavy, but it was still very cloudy.Thick clouds are low and low in the sky, one by one, blue or gray or crimson red or dark purple, like a group of unnamed monsters squeezing each other, overlapping, ups and downs in the light mist.The bone-chilling rain was falling in bits and pieces, making the residual lotus in the pond rustle. The official road full of water has almost become a vast ocean with the channel and pond beside the road. , staring at the misty haze from a distance, and the nearby microwaves sparkling and hitting the shore, the remnants of reeds, broken reeds, sages, and withered thatch are all trembling desolately.The colorful persimmon trees and poplars on the side of the post road, the heavy willows hanging down to the ground, and the branches and leaves are all wet. A gust of wind blows by, and the colorful leaves are unwilling to be lonely. In the cold water.

Just after the application for license plates, a group of carriages galloped along the post road winding from southwest to north, heading straight for Chongwenmen in the south of the Forbidden City in Beijing.The convoy consisted of eleven vehicles, one sedan and ten mule carts.The mule carts are all made of one-color chestnut shell paint and clear tung oil vermicelli.Big mushroom heads with iron nails on the wheel surface, the compartment was tightly sealed and wrapped in oilcloth. I don't know what was inside, and it was nailed and sealed with big iron hooks.The twenty-odd Goshhas in the caravan all rode horses in rice and butter coats, the horseshoes were splashed with mud, the sabers and spurs were clanging, and the leading car was even more luxurious. Cap Baotou, black sheepskin strips, green cloth with eyes and green cloth, and a circle of red cloth under the lacquered gold thread hangings on the head of the swastika cloud—commonly known as the so-called "red cloth car". The person sitting in the car must be a nobleman.In fact, if you are more careful, you can see a bright yellow and royal blue flag beside the notch where the sunshade and umbrella are inserted in front of the shaft. There is a line of small characters written on the pole:

Imperial Order of Governor-General of Guangdong and Guangxi Prince Taibao Li You don't need to ask to know that it is Li Shiyao, the first-class capable official in front of Qianlong today.It's just that the flag was wet, and it curled up on the pole from time to time, and the angry horses passed by like a dragon, and the passers-by on the road couldn't distinguish it at all.The sound of horseshoes stepping on the water, the sound of whipping cars and Goshha's yelling and singing were so lively and chaotic, which added a hustle and bustle to the desolate suburbs of Beijing. The houses along the root of the city were alarmed and took shelter from the rain. People who were getting rid of the cold stretched their necks to look out.Geshha, who was driving the car, became more and more active, circling in the air with a whip in one hand, and holding on to the copper hand brake with the other. Cracked the whip and shouted excitedly:

"Hey! Chongwenmen! Taiwan-maker—— Chongwenmen is here!" He swiped the mule pulling the tail with the whip and scolded: "Your grandma, the rope is bent like a bow! When eating, your mother bows her head to pick and choose the best food. When doing work, there is no you." !Damn—hard!” Then another whip with a “snap”.The mule was startled, kicked all four hooves and ran forward vigorously, the wheel of the wheel bumped on a small stone.The car body trembled slightly, startling Li Shiyao who was concentrating on reading the mansion newspaper.Li Shiyao put down the mansion newspaper, took off his presbyopic glasses, supported the flat gold soft cotton cushion cover with one hand, and opened the "red enclosure" curtain with the other. He saw the gray Chongwen Gate standing under the dark and gloomy sky, the tall and gray city wall. Stretching from east to west, the mottled mottled dark red moss on the walls of the battlements, and the walls weathered by nitrate can be clearly seen, and the east and west pieces are very ugly like mangy heads. He exhaled and said to himself Said: "I want to see the Lord Long Live... Xiao Wuzi, let's not go into the city, let people know that the Chongwen Gate is closed, and say that I have an order to see the driver, send a few people to wash the car, and send someone to Report to the military plane to see if the Xixia Yazi mansion is ready. Just make a point outside the city, and you won’t have to eat anymore when you go back, go!”

"Take it!" The little Wuzi agreed loudly, and lightly pulled the copper gate with one hand. The car had stopped slowly. Ma, you two, get off the car, and go to the tea shop over there to rest first—Master, you rub your face before getting out of the car, it's windy and cold outside, be careful of catching a cold!" Ji ran away. Li Shiyao didn't rub his face, and jumped out of the car without waiting for Geshha's support. The buckskin oil boots were immediately half-submerged in the water, and the soles of his feet felt cold. When he came out of the warm car, he was sparse and cold. The raindrops hit his face, and the head-on wind lifted Lao Gao's robe, and his whole body was refreshed, which was more refreshing than in the stuffy and dirty car.Li Shiyao felt that there were a few more raindrops falling on his face and neck, so he wiped his face, smiled at Chongwenmen, nodded, and strode towards a row of shops at the foot of the city. Come over to eat! Dogs—are you tired?" There are more than 30 Goshha who are chasing the pawns, and they are all waiting in line. Hearing this, he laughed and said, "You are not tired! "Go ahead, my lord, the mud is slippery!" "I'm not tired, I don't eat wine all the way, a bird fades out of my mouth, please enjoy a bowl of wine!" Li Shiyao was walking, stopped and tilted his head After thinking for a while, he said with a smile: "If you don't have an errand, you don't eat alcohol! There are more than 20 jars of Wolong old burning pots buried in my house in Beijing, and I dig them out tonight to satisfy my brothers! Hu Mazi—bring these convicts! In the teahouse, everyone has a snack, no more meals... I have something to do in the evening, so I go to the restaurant here to eat and eat, let's go to the city!"

"Yes! My lord, you eat first!" Lao Hu happily agreed, and led people into the teahouse.The owner of the restaurant here greeted him early, smiling all over his face, and slapped Qian'er down: "Greetings to the Taiwan maker! Our Cai's old tavern has a fate with the master. Farewell farewell, now the eight sedan chairs are ordered to return to Beijing, and Lao Cai's family will welcome you! When you return to the feet of the emperor, you will enter the military plane, and you will be honored with the prime minister. In the future, the prime minister of Taiping will be the prime minister Take it easy!"

Li Shiyao laughed when he heard that, looked at the plaque on the store door and said, "I left Beijing at Luhe Station, and this is Chongwenmen! You'll be blindly flattered by your mother! The name of your store is also strange, what's wrong with it, Call me 'returning to the old shop, what's the story here?'" As he entered the shop, he looked through the light from the doors and windows, and saw a large hall with three bright lights and six dark halls, and the outside was inconspicuous. The windows are low and the facade is small, but the interior decoration is unique. There are three halls for guest seating, the east one is connected to the backyard kitchen, the north four and the west two are connected to the hall, and the dark room is for private seats, all of which are clean with mulberry paper. Several calligraphy and paintings of celebrities, some wrote "Qu Xing is intoxicated as you please, Chunfei Qiushi enters the title", some wrote "Han Yu sent the poor, Liu Ling was drunk", "Jiang Yan wrote a poem, Wang Can climbed the tower", "Watching the song and lingering on the threshold" Red, the eaves are flying green", "There are three autumn osmanthus, ten miles of lotus"... The paper colors are new and old, and the style of writing is different. The most eye-catching pair of Zhongtang couplets is a collection of Tang poetry couplets. by:

Advise you to drink a glass of wine, and let me forget the eternal sorrow Boss Cai saw Li Shiyao approaching to read the inscription, hurriedly lit a candle and came over, and explained with a smile: "This is the small shop where the old Xiangguo of Gaojiang Village (Gao Shiqi) came to Beijing to live. At that time, my grandfather came to dream at night, and the grandfather said ' There will be a nobleman coming tomorrow, please wait carefully', my grandfather saw that although Gao Xiangye was dressed like a beggar, he carried preciousness in his spirit, and he took care of food, drink and no money to stay for three days, Gao Ye was happy, and wrote before leaving I left this picture. To tell you the truth, my grandfather had disputes with others and caused people to go to prison. The family members took this word as evidence to see Mr. Gao Xiangye. The old Buddha Kangxi listened to Gao Xiang's words and was exempted from ticking off. It's not that the gods and Buddhas have spirits, isn't it the blessings of my ancestors? It's true that Lijing is Luheyi, and the 'Cai reporter shop' over there is also my home. I was still there at the time, and now my brother is in charge of that place Facade, your old man said something in front of you, Xiong Cilu, Zhang Tingyu, Zhang Tingyu, Zhuang Shigong, Wang Wenshao and other famous champions, Li Youdai, Li Julai, Le Liuye, who made the stage, and you, who didn’t live How about passing by our store?"

"Let's say that," Li Shiyao said with a smile, "Your shop really occupies the land of dragons and tigers!" Boss Cai saw Li Shiyao's two followers coming in, set up a stool to make tea and ordered the waiter to hold the lamp—these two A military lord sat at the table here——with an apologetic smile, he served Li Shiyao with dishes, and kept saying, "It's fate, it's our ancestor You Dezhan's tomb that is green! Master first eats a piece of bamboo shoots and then eats wine. After a few days This small dish is a small way to honor your old man-the gods and Buddhas who accumulate virtue and blessings will naturally protect you. , every inn has more than half of the rooms vacant, only my family's Huitan shop, two people vying for one night and one money, this piece is to ward off evil spirits, come out and come in and out of the top scholar!" Saying hello: "Serve the two military masters, military masters Without wine, the braised chicken strips are filled with sea bowls!"

"Hey—here we come, military men please!" A clerk with a water skirt around his waist and a towel on his shoulders strode out loudly in the backyard with a plate in his hands. Snow-white steamed buns and two bowls of hot chicken were placed on the table. The two Goshhas were all beaming with joy, and when Li Shiyao said, "Don't be restrained, eat whatever you want", each of them stretched out their chopsticks to pick up the meat and served it to their mouths.Li Shiyao just smiled, turned around and asked Boss Cai: "You said that people are vying to live in your store, why do I see it so deserted?" Today is Xishan’s resignation to Maple Leaf – the east courtyard of my store is full, and they are all bus lifters. The elegant people are different from us when they think about things. This day, we will go to Xishan together After this event, the leaves of the maple trees will drop their bells—Don’t worry about lighting up the lights at this moment, it’s a very cloudy day! It’s sunny on weekdays, the sun hasn’t set yet, and the ghost market is not yet open! "

Li Shiyao pondered for a while before realizing that "dropping the bell" means "withering", so he couldn't help smiling.While eating, he chatted with shopkeeper Cai and heard muddy footsteps approaching. He knew that it was Xiao Wuzi who came back. He put down his chopsticks and turned his face to see that Xiao Wuzi had already entered the door, followed by a thin and lonely young man. The man, expected to be the one who closed the Chongwen Gate, only glanced at him, and asked Little Wu, "Why did you go there for so long, was there no one when it was closed?" "Returning to Taiwanese," Xiao Wuzi sniffed his nose from the cold, and smiled apologetically, "It's raining today, and it's the Double Ninth Festival, so it's closed early. After talking to the left-behind book office for a long time, they Just went to call the third master Liu who is in charge of the pass. Third master, please answer our master’s words face to face!" Li Shiyao then seriously looked at this "third master". Shiny, with a hooked nose and broom eyebrows, a face full of pockmarks, two pepper eyes blinking and twinkling, wearing a cardamom-colored city cloth jacket, with a thin waist, standing upright and twisting his feet, It's obvious at a glance that he is a hooligan.Such a thing is also worthy of showing "Third Lord" in front of him, Li Shiyao almost laughed out of his mouth.Yin asked, "Are you Mr. Liu, the supervisor?" The man named "Liu Sanye" was also secretly looking at Li Shiyao.It was the first time he had seen this famous governor, and he did not expect that he was a thin man less than five feet tall, aged between fifty-four and five-year-old, with pimple eyebrows and black bean eyes, and there was a two-inch growth on his sideburns. Scar.Ordinary aquiline nose with pockmarked face, wearing a sapphire blue Ning silk jacket and a maroon lambskin phoenix wool vest, sitting upright, with one leg shaking and the other foot twisting, as if the whole body would move at the touch of a button. For the first character, a black and thick braided six-in-one hat is dragged behind the head, almost reaching the ground, no need to ask whether it is a fake braid.He grinned and almost laughed, and said in his heart, "It's the same for us to change clothes", but he laughed and said: "This is a joke from the master, I broke the little fodder!" "Little Liu Quan, send my greetings to the Taiwan Maker! Liu Quan—all the callers in the capital call me Liu San bald man!" "Oh, Liu Quan—is that the name in "Liu Quan Jingua"?" "Master Hui, yes! In the play, Liu Quan is a loyal minister and filial son, and so is the young one!" "Okay!" Li Shiyao said with a smile, "It's just that you have a big southern claw on your head, I am short-sighted, so I must ask 'what kind of melon is that under there? Question: "Although there are festivals, it's not important. The Gyeonggi Guanfang court has a system, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has rules. Why do you leave your errands and go home so early, Gao Lezi? Is this true?" He said with a smile at first, Liu Quan bowed his waist and smiled to listen, but now he took a questioning tone, Liu Quan hurriedly said: "No one dares to neglect this mission. I know that the winter solstice is coming, and this closure is under the banner of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. People, everyone has a master, and the master's family has to go back to the mansion to greet him during the festival. It has always been a rule to see the master's mansion to wait on the five festivals of New Year's Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Chongyang Festival, and Lantern Festival. Even villains, not returning home In my own home, just now this Master Wu came to Xizhimen and his residence to call me here. The villain also knows that the responsibility is heavy, and he would never dare to neglect it! Umm—what!" Take a bow. Li Shiyao thought about it, Liu Quan's words were really impeccable, he lowered his face, waved his hand impatiently and said: "As soon as you come, you can! Switch the switch and let me go, I want to go to the city as soon as possible!" Unexpectedly, Liu Quan just finished speaking He leaned back and replied: "I didn't say anything about going to the city, but the goods on the car have to be inspected and paid taxes. Leave them to look at the goods, switch them on and off tomorrow, and the younger ones will deliver the goods to the house in person." Li Shiyao sneered; : "This is not private goods, it's likin from Guangzhou Customs, and a few things honoring the Empress Dowager Lafayette, what kind of tax is it for inspection? Switch!" "If you want to go to the city, just go. Don't dare to bring goods into the city! No matter the lijin or tax, as long as you bring property into the city, you will be taxed. This is a matter of order!" "Lijin is the national tax. You Chongwenmen dare to collect the national tax?" "Small presumptuousness! This is a rule of the past. Officials in the past, even princes, have to go through customs inspections and pay taxes—hmm—yes!" Li Shiyao's face was ashen, thick clouds covered his forehead, the scars on his wings were stretched high, his twitching was terrifying, his pimple eyebrows were pressed down, and a fierce light shone in his narrowed eyes, The voice became low and hoarse: "I——what if I don't let you inspect the goods?" "There's nothing you can do about carrying a bowl to eat." Under Li Shiyao's coercion, Liu trembled all over his body. He gave Li Shiyao a cowardly look, and immediately regained his composure, but his tone was cautious. It's already dark and it's raining again. My lord would rather rest outside the city for the night, let me tell the master and us, and my lord will tell him the truth tomorrow, just a word!" Having said that, there is no room for compromise on both sides.At this moment, the soldiers who were eating tea in the teahouse had all gathered outside the Fantan shop to wait for orders. They drank tea on an empty stomach, and they were already starving. Seeing the bald man and their "general" exchange words mouth, already impatient, staring at the room around the door shouting loudly: "Marshal, don't pay attention to this bastard! Let's open the city gate and walk by ourselves!" "This prisoner really doesn't know how to be flattering, so I don't want to be ashamed from the sky!" "Tie him up, tie him up! Hey! This bastard, just standing on a donkey's prong like this, fighting with us grown-ups!" "Damn it, I went in and eunuched his balls, let's see if he can test it?" "Boy..." "Humph!" "I really don't know whether the horn is copper or iron!" ... There was a lot of yelling and noise, and people in several nearby shops were alarmed, but it was already dusk, the wind was cold, the mud was heavy and there was light snow, so not many people came out to watch the excitement.Li Shiyao waved his hand to stop the Goshhas from clamoring, and shouted: "This is Beijing, not Guangzhou! You all go back and listen to my order!" Turning to Liu Quan, he said: "They sent troops and horses with me. Qiu Ba, don't stop your words, don't take offense." Liu Quan still had a smile on his face, shaking his head indifferently, and replied: "They are ruffians, and the younger ones are also ruffians! When a ruffian meets a ruffian, a brother is as good as a cock Look! This one, the little one has the worst temper—" "Don't be joking with me." Li Shiyao interrupted him, "Even if the Minister of the Ministry of Households comes, he has to let me go! The customs only holds five lijin. Che, how do you close the defense outside the city? Something went wrong, how many heads does He Shen have?" "I'm worried about this?" Liu Quan laughed as soon as he heard it, "It's okay! The Guan Ding of the tax customs is stationed in the row of barracks opposite. We are afraid that we will not have time to enter the city because of the money. Please ask Fengtai Daying to send a sentry team to close the supply and maintain the defense. Just go back to the shop, Lao Cai’s family has taken care of this kind of errands many times, and there has never been a mistake—Lao Cai!" He suddenly called out to the boss One sound. "Hey, third master, what's your order?" Boss Cai was already confused and startled, he shivered and said, "I'm waiting for you!" "Move the residents of the east courtyard to the backyard," Liu Quan ordered like a half-master, "clear the upper room in the east courtyard for Mr. Li, and the trucks will be pushed into the yard. The inside will be guarded by Mr. Li's personal soldiers. I will go outside Set up customs defenses and protect this street!" He said with an apologetic smile to Li Shiyao, "Is this possible?" Li Shiyao kept a sullen face and said nothing, there was nothing wrong with Liu Quan's handling in this way.But he couldn't enter the city tonight anyway, he felt that he had swept his face.Tonight, I was blocked outside the city of Beijing and waited all night, so that I can let Heshen inspect the goods and collect taxes tomorrow!No matter how you think about it, it's awkward and unbearable.He squinted his eyes and looked at Liu Quan contemptuously: "Such a slippery bum, it would be clumsy to be my Ma Bian's follower, but he was jumping up and down in front of him and commanding!"Even He Shen knew a thing or two, but he was the chief soldier of the military aircraft minister Agui Zhangjiakou when he was training in Zhangjiakou. With a smile on his face, he greets everyone he meets, and pours tea when he sees a table... Such a character, after a few years of trembling, has the face he is now!He looked at Liu Quan's indifferent and dry smiling face, and suddenly had an idea, he really wanted to slap him face to face and slap him all over the face... Li Shiyao thought about it, and said with a cold smile: "I don't know you, He Shen, have you met a few times before, and now you have been promoted to a fourth-rank official, and you just got a big one like this? It's okay if you go back to the city to report You and the uncle, just say that Li Shiyao, the next official, is here to be ordered to enter the city..." "Don't dare..." Liu Quan hurriedly laughed: "My lord made fun of me--he said to close the door that greets you personally, Really, I was summoned by the prince and the fifth master, and I couldn't do it at the same time, and I didn't dare to break the rules, so I had to ask my master to be wronged for a night... This is the difficulty of being a servant, my lord is a little more sympathetic, just to be considerate of my fodder It's already..." Li Shiyao listened to these words, stood up with a breath, and said: "Don't eat, I'm full—tell He Shen that the emperor will receive me tomorrow, and Agui will be here tonight." The mansion is waiting for me to say an errand. Tell him to do it!" After that, he ordered: "Call the brothers to come over, set up the car in the east courtyard, and make a big pot of rice in the shop to fill the hunger. Yes." With that said, he withdrew.The boss waited for all the busy people to follow. Liu Quan was the only one left in the store in a daze, he was still weighing the weight of Li Shiyao's words just now.He was very clear in his heart that Li Shiyao was not an easy character to mess with.When I tried the Gongyuan, because "Weng Zhong" was wrongly written as "Zhong Weng" in the test paper, it happened that Qianlong was inspecting Chunwei, and found out the test paper to correct the error. A Minister of Xuanli, the Uncle Prime Minister Fu Heng, led troops to attack the Piaogao disciples of the White Lotus Sect, and volunteered to plan a surprise attack on Mount Heicha and won a complete victory, clearing out the rebel disciples in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces in one fell swoop.The disciples of the Son of Heaven and the Prime Minister supported him with all their strength, and even wealth and honor could not stop them.He was directly promoted to Daotai and then to the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. He managed the copper mines in Yunnan and also managed the copper mines in Anhui.Qianlong repeatedly issued edicts to commend "the most outstanding governors of all provinces." Compared with Li Wei, a famous official in the Yongzheng Dynasty, "he is wild without losing his elegance, rough but not vulgar, and he can undoubtedly use public security, financial management, military and civil administration."Ordinary generals and governors, but he is the only one who wears a yellow jacket and peacock feathers with eyes, no one can compare! ——But I tried my best to wait tonight, but I still provoked this master.One head, He Shen, and the other, Li Shiyao, are both red and purple like radishes. Both of them can lift their feet higher than their own heads, so how can they be squeezed into the cracks of the splints?Thinking left and right, he couldn't get it right, so he slapped himself across the face, stomped out of the store and returned to the city. Boss Cai arranged for Li Shiyao to rest in the east courtyard, and even called the cook from the back shop to help pull the car into the courtyard and remove the tarpaulin to feed the animals.Afraid of the cold, he lit a fire in Li Shiyao's room, lit a charcoal basin, filled a bathtub full of hot water, watched the meat bun powder soup being delivered to each room, smiled apologetically and went into the room and said, "Master Taiwan, this This is the place where the store is in the pool. I have wronged you, old man. I expect that my lord and I will come to see you tonight. If you have no other orders, the little front store will also take care of you. This courtyard used to live Looking at some Xiaolian masters, I am afraid that Chenguang will come back soon, and they have moved the house, so I have to rush to curry favor..." "It doesn't matter, the big deal is to charge them less rent, and I will naturally reward you." Li Shiyao's face was no longer so ugly, as if he had something on his mind, sitting on the edge of the kang, soaking his feet in the hot water basin Li rubbed his hands in a daze, and asked with a smile, "How do you know that He Shen will definitely come to see me?" Boss Cai smiled and said, "Who doesn't know in Beijing and outside Beijing, Mr. Fu is sending troops outside, and Mr. Yin Yuan is here?" Seriously ill, only Prime Minister Agui and Ji Xiaolan are left in the Military Aircraft Department. It was Prime Minister Fu who asked for a decree to let the Taiwan Master enter the Military Aircraft Office to take care of government affairs. You must be promoted to Xiangguo. Master and adults must know. Liu Santu——Master Liu is so After a toss, he has to come and fill the seam! My lord, that is the most intelligent person in the world, and now he has won the holy family. In the future, the officials of the same dynasty will see each other every day, and I will definitely not offend you, old man." Li Shiyao paused for a while. , nodded with a smile and said: "You are quick with information, you have long ears! Go - you moved people's rooms and luggage without permission, so naturally you have to go to Master Juren's to 'fill the gap'." "Ye Shengming!" Boss Cai smiled so that his eyes narrowed into a line, "That is absolutely not to be offended. Today is a juren, tomorrow may be a Jinshi, a champion, and the next day may be a prime minister! Those who open stores all over the world do not want to accept them. Master, because their identities and positions are uncertain, who knows what kind of officials they will be in the future? Some poor masters stop and leave after eating, and stare at them when they ask for money. Master Xiaolian is like—— lingo—notorious whore, hard to serve!" Li Shiyao laughed loudly when he heard this: "Famous whore, famous prostitute—good! There is also 'identity and position unknown', which is 'concubine's identity is not clear', little wife! Hahahaha... well said!" He waved his hands and gasped with a smile: "Go... go and serve the sisters-in-law!" It was completely dark, and through the window we could only see the shadows of houses outside, scattered high and low, like monsters lurking and jumping in the dark, rushing back and forth. On the edge of the eaves and the wall, the dust and window paper on the roof flicker and flutter like living things, and the two candles also dance with the festival, brightening and dimming, making the room more quiet and warm.After taking a bath, Li Shiyao wore only a crimson red cotton jacket and a pair of soft slippers, and paced comfortably in the room. He had to clear his mind. When he saw Emperor Qianlong tomorrow, what would the emperor ask? How should I play back. One is the harvest, which must be asked.The Pearl River flooded four counties this year, reducing production in the province by 10%, and 100,000 refugees had to be rescued and resettled.Before he left Guangzhou, he had already taken care of it. Each household allocated one or two half of the money, porridge sheds were built in various places, and refugees lived in coconut tree huts before winter.The climate in Guangdong is warm, and people will not freeze to death in the winter. But one is that there is not enough firewood, so we have to buy it from neighboring provinces, and the other is that there is too much humidity. The spring is warm to prevent the plague, and the medicinal materials must be prepared well, so as not to be in a hurry.The second is that Wei Chunsheng, a bandit taught by the Tianli Society, gathered a crowd to rebel in Luoding and occupied Dayunwu Mountain. Go to Guangzhou... This is what the emperor is most concerned about. Although there have been memorials that have stated it in detail, I am afraid that I have to explain it in detail.There is a matter of proportion here. If you say it too small, you won't get credit for it. If you say it too big, you have to investigate the responsibility of local government failure. Someone has already accused him of "manslaughtering a good citizen." Heng has already co-authored a book titled "Thieves and bandits are no more than a thousand, but four times as many are suppressed and killed. This is because the leaders of the good people greedily invite the court to reward them. The thieves go down and bully the top, and the country is harmed by the people. The governor is insane. As for this extreme!" Although the emperor has already refuted the impeachment papers, I am afraid he still has to explain... There is also the matter of Guangdong Catholic missionaries building churches, local people joining the church without authorization, more and more opium addicts, banning Dongdong The matter of the Indian company transporting tobacco barges... all of them were in turmoil, and suddenly I felt hot, thinking of the letter Agui wrote to himself, "The emperor has the intention to let my brother be on the military plane, so as to benefit the government affairs"...Jian Shu, Minister of Military Affairs, Counselor , an extremely human minister, this is indeed a great honor, but if Fu Heng hadn't contracted a serious illness in Burma, and Yin Jishan was dying of illness, such a great good thing would not have happened to him for a while--I am so happy, I will soon It aroused the hatred of the emperor. The word "frivolous" is enough to ruin a bright future... Thinking about it, he was already a little bit fond of Ma Xin Yuan.Hearing the rustling of the roof tiles, he came back to his senses and ordered the little Wu Zi who was standing at the door of the hall to say: "Wu Shixiong, it's raining heavily, and then go and look at the tarpaulin on the car, some objects can't be rained." .” "tie!" Wu Shixiong promised, turned around and stepped out of the door, and immediately exclaimed in surprise: "Commander, it's snow, it's Xiaoxuezhu! I went to Guangdong with the commander, and I haven't seen snow in six years! Haha... What a rare thing, Luo It’s still fucking sweet in your mouth..." Some of the Geshkhs in the East Wing haven’t seen the snow for a long time, and some Cantonese have never seen snow at all, and they are all discharged from the hospital, shouting happily: "Seeing Xue Tian'er again!" "Tsk tsk, it melted in my hand, I can't see clearly..." "If we're in Guangzhou, it's too hot to take a shower!" "Rare is more strange! It's like broken rice, what's the fun!" "Go back to the house, go back to the house! If you are surprised and fight monsters, be careful and get angry!" "childish!" Li Shiyao just smiled and didn't stop everyone.He was full of foul language to the sergeants, but in fact he himself was a Jinshi with a good heart, and he loved snow very much, so he wanted to go out of the courtyard and play with open arms.But now, when I see a prime minister, I have to pay attention to the deepness, grace and grace of the city mansion. I was a little startled, turned back and forth, half lying on the kang, took out my pocket watch to see that I had just arrived at the beginning of Xu, and bent my elbow on the pillow with one hand, and held the clock in the other. Looking at the wandering eyes that Yunxin gave him... In a daze, suddenly the store in front of the west courtyard burst into noisy voices, including laughter and curses, and it seemed that Boss Cai's explanation was also interspersed. Li Shiyao put down his book and sat up.Seeing that he was disturbed, Wu Shixiong hurriedly said: "I'm afraid it's the group of young men who came back from the west mountain tour. I just need to lie down, and I'll tell them to be quiet!" Li Shiyao laughed and said, "It's nothing more than a fox pretending to be a tiger to scare a scholar. Left and right I can’t sleep well either, so let’s go out of the front shop—you just need to keep an eye on our car.” As he spoke, he put on a big cloak, and because of the cold weather outside, he put on a pair of Ulagrass shoes, and strolled to the front shop of the West Courtyard . There were more than 20 Juren who came back, some with brocade robes and leather waistcoats, some ordinary market cloth gowns, and some shabby gowns with patchwork patches, all of them were as cold as blue-headed radishes, with snotty noses and hands in their hands. There were all sorts of weird faces hugging shoulders and stomping feet, clamoring for hot soup to warm the body, "serve the meal quickly", and "hot wine", some people pointed at the boss's nose and spit Scattered and asked: "Why move my things to change my room? How can you open a shop like this?!" The boss had a face full of smiles, hugged his hands together and bowed Zhou Bai with a word and bowed: "Lie My lord! Not to mention that you are all Wenqu stars in the sky, every one of you in the current Ke Chunwei has to be on the yellow armor, and the royal street officials under the ** building, even ordinary pickers who come to live in the shop, are also small parents. How dare you neglect..." As he explained, Li Shiyao couldn't help laughing when he heard "they are all literary stars", and sat down at a table in the corner. The masters must be considerate when changing houses. How can the small ones dare to disobey the government’s temporary expropriation? The conscience of heaven and earth, if the surname Cai wants to wrong you on purpose, call my descendants to steal men and women! There are thousands of mistakes. Wrong, in short, all the lords just laughed it off! So, everyone, go back to your room and rest, the hot water is boiling, and the meal will be ready immediately. Tonight's meal money will not be charged at the store. It is a small tribute to the lords. ——I also hope that everyone will be proud of the spring breeze, and come to the small shop to reward the small silver after the high hair!" The group of Juren were originally reluctant, but when they heard that they would not accept money, their expressions became more relaxed. Some laughed and some scolded them and went back to the back shop.There were only four or five Juren left, who seemed to have lived in the east courtyard, waiting for the staff to lead them to a new residence.The boss still bowed as soon as he spoke, "Master Cao, Mr. Wu, Mr. Hui, Mr. Ma, Mr. Fang, hehe... you can change to the east wing of the west courtyard. Please go back to your room first, and I will prepare wine for you guys to cool off the cold. Hehe... "When Li Shiyao looked at these people, it seemed that they were all about twenty-four or five years old. They were all black market cloth jackets, and the robes were gray or blue or beige or indigo. All of them were dignified and peaceful. Steady, but ignored Li Shiyao who was sitting in the corner, and let himself speak. "Tonight it was said that Brother Cao was hosting the guests, but the shopkeeper insisted that Heng'er was going to be the host, so I had to respectfully obey. Brother Cao, you will take the lead in this poem meeting. You are the youngest, and you are also a son of a prominent family in Zhejiang. , to win this lottery, Gaodi is a must!" The tall man standing at the door spoke Jiangsu-Zhejiang dialect, smiled and talked to a thin and short young man with a melon-shaped face in the middle, and said: "We will follow the rules of the card. Lah!" Before the young man surnamed Cao could answer, a fat man by the west window said, "Ah, I'm visiting the West Mountain today, and Bai Xiang is very happy. Brother Wu's poems were read when he was living in the countryside. Today, he is second. The little brother still refuses to accept it, um—the hazy air gracefully circles the heavy peak, and the evening maple echoes against the crimson clouds—the autumn air of the Western Mountains is all in one stroke!" Before he finished speaking, a Chinese-character face stood beside the dining table in the north and said with a smile: "Brothers still think that Cao Xibao's poems are good-the heart is impatient with the cold west wind, the crimson clouds come out of the mountains and go around the hills. "Ma Xiangzu's evaluation was unfair, Wu Shengqin's evaluation was unfair, and Hui Tongji's evaluation was unfair!" Standing next to the fat man, a round-faced man raised his voice and said, "Cao Xibao's poems are decadent, and Wu Shengqin's poems are stingy. I love your poems." I’m not flattering you.” “That’s your Fang Lingcheng’s best.” Hui Tongji said with a smile, “Well——touring the West Mountain today, the weather is very cold. I want to wear something thinner, so I can spit when I catch a cold—that’s great Poetry!" This sentence made everyone laugh out loud, and Li Shiyao, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help swallowing secretly.But Fang Lingcheng grinned and said with a big grin: "It's so boring to go back to the room! We're just talking here—boss, let's drink tea and wait for dinner—how can you brothers even forget the children's poems?" , The article teaches Ercao'—the article is stereotyped to earn fame, one slap and one slap, one slap and one blood, that’s called benefits!" Asking the waiter that the tea has been brought, the boss smiled while serving the tea: "Little one If you want to say that you are laughing and bragging again. In the past, Mr. Gao Fengwu, Mr. Gao Fengwu, lived in our shop. He didn’t make a fortune in several subjects. This time, he met Jia Shifang and Jia Shenxian. He asked about his fame, and Jia Shenxian said, " Tomorrow, I went to the east toilet to see'. A narrow-minded ghost went to the east toilet at night and wrote a 'miss' on the wall with a pen. Gao Ye got up early the next day to see it, but who knew that he was scribbling secretly, and the strokes were wrong. Lian, what was written was "one middle"! It can be seen that fame has God's will, long-term cause, and ancestral virtue, and it is not all about high and low in the article. Saturn is bright, five people must occupy Wukuimen! The villain dares to guarantee the ticket!" After saying this, everyone nodded and smiled, and the boss came to refill Li Shiyao's tea, but Wu Shengqin said: "I believe what the Cai family said. Who can say about fame? It also depends on the taste of the examiner and the fate of the room teacher. This year, the examiner is either Ji Dajunji or A Guiye. I heard that the emperor has transferred Guangdong Li Zhitai to Beijing. Nine years of spring. This year's question is hard to fathom!" Li Shiyao had been sitting idle and listening with a smile. He was about to get up and go back to his room, but when he heard about him, he stabilized his body again.The boss, however, was afraid that the starter would be disobedient, so while refilling the tea, he smiled apologetically and said in a low voice, "It's so boring to sit here! I'm going to Fanghong Pavilion to call a few children who are learning opera, and I'm going to the east courtyard.房也宽绰，唱段子给爷听。成不成？”李侍尧情知他的心思，只一笑，指指茶壶道：“这个放这里我自斟自饮。你只管去招呼他们。”——
