Chapter 515 Poetry Club(1/2)
After Niu Siyuan left, Jiao Shun pressed his hand on the gold-burning invitation and tapped it gently, thinking about the real intention of Yong Yibo at this time.
It may not be fake to join the grand event.
The overall decline of nobles and relatives of the foreign countries, especially many hereditary titles, are about to come to an end, and only a handful of people have successfully transformed into the imperial examination and entered the officialdom. Therefore, the emergence of this new path of engineering is really a life-saving straw for them.
In addition, the nobles and relatives of the foreigners are naturally close to the imperial power, so it is normal for them to choose to join them.
However, the nobles and relatives of nobles and foreigners are also the group that cares the most about face because of their ancestors. If they are willing to be on par with their family slaves, or even unite with themselves as the core, Jiao Shun is determined not to believe it.
This can be seen from the fact that the Duke of Zhenguo has laid the dark flag of Niu Siyuan early, but has never contacted and communicated with him.
Now that we suddenly emerge to participate in the grand event, it is mostly due to the deterrent effect brought by the Ministry of Rites incident on the eighth day of the September 19th.
In short, it is OK to cooperate with nobles and relatives, but you must be careful and maintain your authority. Otherwise, there will definitely be domineering children with self-restrained backgrounds and jump out to challenge themselves.
Just as he was thinking, he saw Xing Xiuyan holding an invitation and coming out of the south room.
Compared with the gold-plated post of Yongyi Bona who tried his best to show his wealth, the picture on Xing Xiuyan's hand is much more elegant. The whole piece is embossed with wood grain, and it is covered with a layer of silver-gray fine velvet cloth on the outside.
It looks inconspicuous at first glance, but in fact, it requires even more labor-intensive processes than gold-plated posts.
Jiao Shun only glanced at it and asked with great confidence: "Is this just sent from the garden?"
Those who can focus on kung fu is afraid that there will be no one else in the group of leisurely and leisurely bellies in the Grand View Garden.
"Posted by Miss Shi."
Xing Xiuyan walked up and showed the front of the post and said, "I'm going to the garden for a banquet tomorrow morning, saying that I would hold a chrysanthemum poetry party before the Xue sisters moved to Zijin Street."
When Jiao Shun heard that it was a poetry gathering, he immediately became less interested.
He knew nothing about this, but the way Wen Zhuan Gong was blocked by Emperor Taizu.
At the moment, I just said, "Zhixia has a wet nurse watching. You will have a good time tomorrow. If you have any preparations, I will ask you to have someone to give me a place to help you."
Xing Xiuyan nodded. Now she deals with most of the housework in the Jiao family. Even the money in the public account can be withdrawn at will, so there is really no need for Jiao Shun to prepare anything.
but……
Xing Xiuyan hesitated and said, "Master, when I see Sister Lin tomorrow, should I persuade her again?"
Lin Daiyu has never been a hiding person, so she naturally informed Xing Xiuyan of the voluntary "abandonment" to Xue Baoqin.
But as Xing Xiuyan was thinking, she still hoped that Lin Daiyu could come to Jiao’s family to be half the master. First, the sisters were closer and more familiar, so she didn’t have to worry about any disputes in the future. Second, she was also worried that she would not be able to do anything in the future.
Home.
If you put it on others, even if you suffer a wronged marriage in a blind marriage, you will probably get used to it if you endure it, but Lin Daiyu's temperament...
Instead of taking this risk, it is better to serve as a part-time wife for your uncle and have a look after each other.
However, Jiao Shun's recent enthusiasm for the Xue family made Xing Xiuyan worried that his uncle had already recognized Xue Baoqin, so he came to ask him about his intentions in advance, so he would not make a decision in private and make a meal apart.
In fact, what Xing Xiuyan didn't know was that Jiao Shun had more than two families, and there was Jia Tanchun who was secretly staring at this position.
"That's it..."
Jiao Shun is also in a difficult position to choose. Among the three candidates at present, Baoqin is undoubtedly the dominant in terms of comprehensive appearance, but Lin Daiyu is one of the two heroines in the original work, with a special identity bonus.
And Jia Tanchun...
Although it is at the bottom of all aspects, it can blatantly eat rice with rice in the dough.
Alas ~
It's really hard to make a decision.
Finally, he had to wave his hand and said, "You can watch it yourself. I just have no dates or no dates, and I may not be able to determine which one it is."
Seeing that Jiao Shun had no idea, Xing Xiuyan didn't mention this matter anymore. She just sat opposite him and talked about the trivialities at home with Jiao Shun.
The biggest family business of the Jiao family is naturally that the new house on Zijin Street will be completely completed. According to Xu's intention, it is best to move it over at the end of this month.
But Lai Wang and Jiao Shun and his son both objected to this.
The reason for Lai Wang was so impatient, but it seemed that he was eager to cut off from Rongguo Mansion, which might cause some unnecessary suspicion.
In addition to being reluctant to part with Yingying Yanyan in the Grand View Garden, Jiao Shun is also worried about the existence of toxic gases in the newly built house. Although chemical raw materials are rarely used these days, once they are used, they will not be able to do so at all.
Consider the issue of excessive toxins.
After some discussion, it was finally scheduled to move at the end of November.
In this way, after everything is cleaned up, you can just shut the door and celebrate the New Year.
However, although it will not be moved in at the end of November, you can prepare everything you need to buy in advance.
In the past few days, Xu and Xing Xiuyan have already pulled out a long order. They just waited for Lai Wang and Jiao Shun to check for the gaps and make up for the leaks, so they were going to buy them on a large scale.
Jiao Shun took a rough look and saw that there were as many as four or five hundred pieces in all sizes. He was so troubled that he said that he only paid for money and ignored everything about buying things.
It's rare that there is nothing wrong. The two of them are just chatting and chatting for half a day. As for the lingering feelings at night, I don't need to mention it too much...
It turned to September 11th.
Because the Double Ninth Festival only has two days off, Jiao Shun naturally went to the yamen to work early in the morning - Yong Yibo made an appointment to treat him on September 13th.
I didn't want to drive halfway, but I was suddenly blocked by Jia Yucun.
"Brother!"
Before the servants could set up the ladder, Jia Yucun jumped out of the car and walked towards Jiao Shun and complained, "You have made me suffer this time."
Jiao Shun also jumped out of the car, patted his shoulder and smiled, "I am the emperor's fate on my shoulder, I can't help myself - Besides, since your brother is an official in Shuntian Mansion, he wants to be free from all fours and six.
It's impossible."
Jia Yucun was stunned when he heard this. He was afraid of it for a long time when he came out of the palace yesterday, and then he started to have a headache about how to resolve the dispute between King Zhongshun and King Nan'an.
These two families are not easy to mess with.
Needless to say, King Zhongshun is the younger brother of the Supreme Emperor, the current emperor's uncle; the King of Nan'an is not only the hereditary title, but also the nephew of the Empress Dowager and the emperor's cousin.
Which one did he dare to offend Shuntian Mansion?
But if both sides do not offend, how can they fulfill the emperor's instructions?
After thinking about it, Jia Yucun decided to figure out the emperor's intentions first, so he came to Jiao Shun's must-pass road ahead, intending to find out the emperor's tendency through Jiao Shun.
However, after hearing Jiao Shun's words, he seemed to have known for a long time that the emperor would hand over this hot potato to him for disposal.
Or, this idea is Jiao Shun.
Or, the emperor had a good time with Jiao Shun in advance.
No matter which one is, it proves that the relationship between Jiao Shun and the emperor is an intimate closeness that outsiders can imagine!
After understanding this section, Jia Yucun's attitude became softer invisibly, and a flattering look appeared between his eyebrows and eyes, and even his waist was not as tall as before.
"Brother."
He bowed and said with a smirk: "Since you already know, I won't go around in circles. Please give me a clear way to my brother, and see what to do with this matter.
It's better for me."
"I can't make any idea for you."
Jiao Shun was willing to get involved in this matter and had previously argued with the head of the royal family in person. That was because King Zhongshun had crossed the boundaries, but this did not mean that Jiao Shun was qualified to intervene. The dispute between two top royal relatives
.
Seeing that Jia Yucun asked to sue, he added: "Anyway, both sides can't afford to offend them, so I'd better just be honest in enforcing the law impartially."
This is the same as not saying it. If one party is obviously in the wrong, it will be simple to solve it. The problem is that both parties are actually jealous and separate from each other. They hold on to each other and cannot say who is right or wrong at all.
Jia Yucun wanted to say something with a bitter face, but Jiao Shun had already bowed and said, "I still have the important matters to do. Please give up my way out so as not to miss the business."
Seeing that he was determined, Jia Yucun had to look back and signal his carriage to avoid the roadside. Thinking about it, he couldn't help but complain: "Brother, don't want to get into this muddy water, there is no need to perfunctory me on business, right? Who doesn't know about engineering
What's happening is now stuck by the Ministry of Revenue?”
After saying that, he suddenly thought of something and said in surprise: "Can the Ministry of Revenue give in, right?"
"How can the God of Wealth be so easy to let go of this passing God of Wealth?"
Jiao Shun got into the car and picked up the curtains and said, "Today our department is going to discuss the construction of the Xijing Railway."
Xijing? Railway?
Seeing Jiao Shun's carriage leaving, Jia Yucun was full of questions.
The Ministry of Works wants to use iron to pave the road in Chang'an City?!
What the hell is this?
…………
On the other side.
After Xing Xiuyan had breakfast, she left Siqi and her nurse to take care of Xiao Zhixia, and reluctantly brought Xiangling and Hongyu to the Grand View Garden.
Unexpectedly, as usual, we gathered in Ouxiangxie again.
However, when I was reciting the poem, I would probably turn to the flower shui of the Litang.
To be continued...
