MTL - Great Tang Broom Star-Chapter 9 The language is not amazing
Chapter 9
Xu Jingzong returned to the state office, and went to his room to stay for a while.
"Where is the envoy?" Liao Quan, the chief historian, came to see him, but Xu Jingzong's entourage stopped him, "The envoy is writing a memorial."
In the room, there was a **** statue on the table at the moment. Xu Jingzong knelt on the futon, clasped his hands, and prayed in a low voice: "...I implore the gods to protect the believers and not be burdened by broom stars. Believers who return will definitely offer generously..."
It took him a long time to get up and put away the idol.
"Emissary, Liao Changshi asks to see you." A small official came to report.
Xu Jingzong turned around, coughed dryly, and Wei seriously returned, "Let him come.". He narrowed his eyes slightly, "The old man was thinking about the future of Huazhou, but he interrupted him."
The little official said in admiration: "It is really a blessing for the people of Huazhou to make you sleep and forget food for Huazhou!"
Afterwards, Chief Shi Liao Quan came in, saluted and said: "Master, the public house is running out of money, and now the public kitchen can't even afford food. Today's noon... I'm afraid everyone can only eat porridge."
In addition to paying part of the salaries of the officials, the interest of the public money lending is also responsible for the expenses of the yamen canteen, that is, the public kitchen.
According to the rules of the Tang Dynasty, government offices at all levels have their own small canteens. Everyone goes to eat and chat together, and the atmosphere is harmonious, and things are done.
Now even the small cafeteria can’t go on, which shows how badly the money was short-lived.
Xu Jingzong glanced at Liao Quan, but he was muttering in his heart.
He came to Huazhou to be demoted, and by the way, he came to see the broom star, but who would have thought that his predecessor left such a big hole. Thinking that the confidant of His Royal Highness the Prince can only drink porridge, this is really unbearable!
"That's Liang Bo's shortfall. By the way, why can't the money be recovered?"
The money-hunting households are all rich, and at least they can afford the money they borrowed. That is to say, if they lose money in lending, the government will just ask them to pay them all. If they don’t pay, they will lose their property.
Liao Quan said helplessly: "Those two money thieves lent money to a businessman, and the merchant's two ships carrying the goods sank, and the envoy personally interrogated him, but in the end it was a natural disaster, so he went to confiscate the two money thieves. Who would have thought that those two people owed debts outside, the family property had already been pawned, so the money was gone."
Catching the rich and the poor, and pretending to be rich outside, this is not a trap for the Huazhou state government.
"Slut dog slave!" Xu Jingzong cursed and said, "What does this matter have to do with the old man? Go borrow it and fix the public kitchen. I want to eat mutton for lunch."
Liao Quan was speechless, thinking that the majestic Huazhou government would borrow money to maintain the expenses of the public kitchen. If word of this spread, even the officials in Chang'an City would burst into laughter.
"Master, this face..." Liao Quan felt that face is still important.
"Face is worth something?" Xu Jingzong put away his majestic face at this moment, and he looked like a rascal, "The old man Liang Bo met him once, and at first glance, he was incompetent, and he became the governor of Huazhou only by flattery. Now he made a hole for the old man to fill, why?"
Everyone couldn't help being stunned.
I thought that Liang Bo was a famous virtuous minister, but in Xu Jingzong's mouth, he became a traitor. The point is that Xu Jingzong said that Liang Bo relied on flattery for his superiors, which makes people feel absurd.
Such acrimony is really too much. You, Xu, are relying on flattery, right?
However, a high-ranking official crushed people to death, so Liao Quan could only go out to borrow money. After leaving the state office, he couldn't help but pooh, and cursed: "Dog official!"
Xu Jingzong's reputation has been stinking on the street decades ago. He was a famous treacherous minister in the Tang Dynasty, a villain who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and greedy for power. After learning that he was here to take over as governor of Huazhou, Liao Quan and many others felt that the disaster in Huazhou was coming.
Such treacherous ministers and villains are in charge of Huazhou, and the life of Huazhou officials is afraid that Wang Xiaoer's New Year is not as good as every year!
Later, Liao Quan went to borrow money, so at least he got mutton for lunch.
During lunch, all qualified people appeared in the dining hall, and everyone else went to cook by themselves, but Xu Jingzong sat there motionless.
This is a habit left by a former governor. He said that regardless of his official position, he has to cook by himself. It means having fun with the people, and it also means lowering his status so that everyone can speak freely during lunch time.
Every subsequent governor followed this habit, but Lao Xu dismissed it. He felt that since he was a Shangguan, why didn't he enjoy the majesty he should have?
A small official made a meal and brought it over respectfully. Old Xu hummed and started eating.
Those officials looked at him from time to time, mostly helpless in their eyes.
With such a superior officer, our life may be hopeless.
After dinner, Liao Quan followed Xu Jingzong back. He looked at the famous treacherous official, and asked with dissatisfaction: "Master, about the broom star...someone in Chang'an sent an envoy, saying yes..."
He looked around, which was a hint: the people who sent the envoys were all big bosses.
"The broom star made them panic? Why is this old man so relieved?" Xu Jingzong only felt refreshed all over, as if that... just died.
The so-called big bosses are mostly people from aristocratic families. These people and the royal family are naturally rivals. In the former Sui Dynasty, it was these people who made Emperor Sui Yang look like a light on his back, and then played a few big moves, all with the intention of targeting these aristocratic families.
As a result, Yang Guang's big move against the aristocratic families failed, causing wars everywhere, and then those aristocratic families pushed the old Li's family out to rebel, and finally succeeded in changing the dynasty.
Old Li's family succeeded in rebelling, and the powerful family in Guanlong contributed a lot. But after becoming a royal family, Lao Li's buttocks sat crookedly, and he muttered in his heart, thinking that the power of these aristocratic families was too large and dangerous, and they had to be weakened.
As a result, the two sides have faintly become enemies from teammates, and Lao Xu, who is a loyal dog of the royal family, is naturally a thorn in their side. ,
So even if they passed on the message, they only asked Liao Quan to convey it, instead of going to Xu Jingzong in person.
They thought that Lao Xu should be helpful, but they didn't know that Lao Xu was the kind of person with clear grievances and grievances.
Those people have often tripped up Old Xu in the past, so when he learned that they were in a panic because of the broom star, Old Xu couldn't help but secretly feel happy.
Liao Quan has never seen a Shangguan so vitriolic, and he directly said that the old man was very pleased. He said helplessly: "Yes, those people are a little worried."
Xu Jingzong said with a stern face: "They are worried about them. What does it matter to me if they die? Don't talk too much, I have my own reasons."
Liao Quan looked at the sky speechlessly, thinking that if those bigwigs from aristocratic families heard what Xu Jingzong said, they probably wanted to fly to Huazhou to strangle him to death.
Old Xu went out later and went straight to the temple.
Hearing this kind of thing in the temple, I feel that I value my family very much. There is no reason not to agree. They all say that the broom star must be suppressed with boundless Buddhism.
Xu Jingzong came to Yangjiawu again, and the village official Yang Zhongshun came out to greet him and said, "Jia Ping'an was at home last night and didn't go out."
Since Xu Jingzong left yesterday, Yang Zhongshun made people keep an eye on Jia Pingan, fearing that he would run away.
"You are fine." Old Xu nodded, and then went straight to Jia's house.
Old Jia’s house is very eye-catching. His house is in the middle. The houses of the two neighbors are covered with climbing vines, and they look like dust.
"On both sides...is there a hermit?" A follower thought the artistic conception covered with ivy was very good, and couldn't help wondering who lived on both sides.
Yang Zhongshun looked constipated, "The Jia family is in the middle, and the two families next door used to raise dogs to death and chickens, and the chickens flew to the roof to crow in the middle of the night..."
Damn it!
Everyone thought about the scene of hearing the rooster crowing in the middle of the night, and couldn't help but feel that it was extraordinarily weird.
"The two families moved later." Yang Zhongshun sighed.
Xu Jingzong felt a chill in his back, so he gave a dry cough, then he held the Buddha statue in his hand tightly, and said, "Call him out."
Yang Zhongshun shouted: "Jia Ping'an, come out!"
It was very quiet inside, and a follower whispered: "Could it be... suicide?"
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. At this time, footsteps came from inside, and everyone looked at it one after another.
Jia Pingan came out wearing a white coat.
The so-called white clothes are better than the snow, the so-called fluttering white clothes, which look chic, are actually sackcloth, the clothes of inferior people.
Jia Pingan came out slowly, saluted, then looked at Xu Jingzong, and said, "Maybe the gentleman keep his eyes open? The students have something important to say."
As he spoke, he looked at the few officials behind Xu Jingzong, thinking that if this plan didn’t work, how would he suffer in the temple.
Xu Jingzong glanced at him, and suddenly remembered that those big bosses put pressure on him through Liao Quanlai, and said in a strange way: "Everyone avoids."
In Lao Xu's view, it would be great if the broom star could designate people to restrain people, and make all those people from powerful families into fools.
After everyone avoided, Xu Jingzong said coldly: "What do you have to say?"
In Lao Xu’s view, although this broom star has studied for several years, the countryside is just the countryside, so what knowledge can he have? The so-called having something to say, I am afraid it is not some inside story of the broom star.
For example, how he became an unlucky guy, and how he defeated the two emperors.
Everyone has gossip, and Lao Xu is no exception, and even has some small expectations.
Let the gossip be more intense!
Jia Pingan felt that Lao Xu's expression was a bit weird, as if he was expecting something, "Although the student is in the country, I have heard that someone slandered the envoy. Those people wished that the envoy would stay in Huazhou all his life and not enter Take one step at Chang'an."
There are not many studies on Lao Xu in later generations, most of them inherit the attitude of Tang and Song historians, and think that Lao Xu is a traitor.
But Jia Pingan felt that Lao Xu could see clearly, and he stood in line thoroughly, helping the emperor to weaken the influence of the powerful family, so he offended many people. Those people are big bosses, so it is natural for him to be notorious in various records.
Xu Jingzong frowned slightly, but in fact he was extremely happy in his heart. Many people outside looked at him furiously, saying that he was a traitor, but here, a young man said that those were all slanders.
But words of this level can’t make Lao Xu stop, he said flatly: “The temple is going to build a pagoda for you, and you went to Haosheng to practice.”
Damn it!
What Jia Pingan immediately thought of was Leifeng Pagoda. The white lady is suppressed under the Leifeng Pagoda, so is this pagoda suppressing me?
He endured the sense of absurdity and said: "If the envoy wants to return to Chang'an, he must make a career in Huazhou, otherwise...those people have reason to suppress the envoy."
That's right, Xu Jingzong didn't expect a young man to have such insight, so he gave Jia Pingan a high look.
"However, the six mountains and three fields in Huazhou share the water, and it is difficult for the students to make some political achievements!"
Jia Pingan listened too much to the so-called political achievements in later generations, but Datang is an agricultural country, and officials want political achievements, except for enlightenment and persuasion, Mao has none.
In terms of understanding of political achievements, the officials of Datang are really far behind.
So he used this to test it out. If Old Xu was not tempted, then he could only squat in the tower and transform into a male white snake.
Thinking of the ancient Buddha with blue lights in the dark pagoda, eating plain food every day, and the key is to be quiet, Jia Pingan wanted to travel back directly.
He seemed calm, but he had already recited the names of all the gods in his heart.
Xu Jingzong looked at him, suddenly smiled and said: "You are a young man, do you know what political achievements are?"
Jia Ping’an’s previous remarks were just like those lobbyists who said when they met: “Mr.
The master must be angry when he hears this, what? Do you pay homage to someone as a dead person?
This is the language is not amazing.
Xu Jingzong sure enough, Jia Pingan was overjoyed, and said: "The so-called three fires when a new official takes office, the students here know something, which can help you solve your difficulties."
…
New book release three fires, the first fire: recommendation votes, the second fire: support...
