Chapter 373: Shanglinyuan Pro-Sang
Wei Qing did not neglect at all. He personally replaced Ji An with hot tea, then shook his hands away, his face full of sincerity and humility.
"I am deeply frightened by His Majesty's love and entrusted with the General's important task. I hope the inner master will give me advice on how to perform his duties in the future."
Give advice?
Something interesting,
After hearing this, Ji An was not polite, took a sip of hot tea, moistened his throat and said with a smile: "General, how did you read Your Majesty's edict this time?"
How can I see it?
Is there something in my words? Wei Qing shook his head blankly and said, "Is there anything wrong with this?"
"Of course, if the subordinates are not guessing correctly, the emperor's edict must have been reviewed and revised by the court guard Zhang, and then submitted to the emperor for promulgation."
"Um?"
Ji An smiled and said, "Hasn't the general heard what the officials said? There is a very critical word in this edict."
"This... please make clear!"
Ji An looked at Wei Qing and then said, "The edict used the four words "Bing the Soldiers" to praise the general for his special merits, but it is his responsibility to guard the border.
As the commander of the three armies, he has no choice but to do anything. Why is it called "leading the soldiers in charge"?
Obviously, the edict drafted by Lord Zhang is suspected of being praised, or it may be contrary to the general's original intention."
"After Lord Ji said this, he seemed to realize that something was wrong.
Besides, the great victory of this battle is all due to the efforts of all the generals. Your Majesty is rewarded only but not favored by others, which makes me very uneasy.”
This is a sensible person,
Ji An admired Wei Qing's soberness very much, and couldn't help but raise the teacup and said, "Good! The lower-ranking official used tea instead of wine to express his respect to the general.
As for the reward, you have to wait until the general returns to the capital and report to Your Majesty in person. Moreover, Your Majesty decides that from this year, the General and the Prime Minister will each lead a group of court officials. After the troops are in charge, Your Majesty will naturally tell the General."
"Oh? I have been in the army for several years, and I have always known very little about the affairs of the court. I hope the Lord will give me advice." Wei Qing said humbly.
"No need. After today, the general is powerful and powerful, and his name is above the Taiwei, so the subordinate officials hope that the general will do his own things."
Wei Qing put down the teacup and said solemnly: "This... I wonder if sir can explain it in detail?"
After drinking all the tea in his hand, Ji An said again: "It should be noted that since ancient times, officials have had three major taboos: one is to not make a great contribution to the master; the second is to not be corrupt and abuse the law; the third is to not indulge their children.
All the three taboos that Xiaguan said are shameless. Now, does the general still understand?"
Wei Qing suddenly realized that this was the core of all the words before and even now.
It turned out that he had always been persuaded by him, and Wei Qing was very grateful to this brother who was an official in the same dynasty.
"Hahaha! I really made me enlightened when I heard what Lord Ji said!"
...
Chen Ajiao and her two sisters went to Shanglinyuan to kiss the mulberry tree on this day of flowers.
This is a solemn ceremony to set an example with the emperor and advocate farming and sericulture, so it is naturally unscrupulous.
A few days ago, Chen Ajiao had issued an oral order that, except for the two sisters who had to accompany them in person, even the wives of officials of more than 2,000 stones must not be absent.
First, it demonstrates the style of the empress and mother in the world, and second, it shows the prosperity of rituals and music in the Han Dynasty.
Wei Zifu was a careful and cautious person. He got up early and washed carefully under the custody of the palace maids.
Although this pro-sect is just a ritual procedure, it is related to the royal style, and after all, it is given the meaning of "work".
So she still put on makeup today and even wore the dark green clothes.
After breakfast, Chen Meng came in and said, "The auspicious time is coming soon, please come. Please come on the chariot."
After nodding, she looked at her outfit again. Until she was sure that this outfit was enough to show her devotion to the Silkworm God, she asked Chunxiang: "My sister, Yan'er, and all the ladies, have they arrived?"
"I'll tell you the Lord! The Queen hasn't arrived yet, but Concubine Li and her wives have been waiting on Anmen Street for a long time."
"Okay, let's go."
Wei Zifu smiled and slowly came out of Danjingtai with the help of the palace maids.
On the road,
The queen's phoenix is decorated with green feathers and scores particularly elegantly. She has four snow-green horses pulling the carriage. She is also guarded by the mount of flags, heading towards the wind and heading west in a mighty manner.
Rather than saying that this is Chen Ajiao's trip, it is better to say that this is just a gathering between royal relatives.
In addition, the person who held the phoenix rein is not someone else, but the wife of the Taifu Gongsun He and Wei Zifu's sister Wei Junru.
If you think about it carefully, this intriguing combination is not only a kind of emotional maintenance, but also a symbol of the palace bonds during the Yuanguang period.
The long car drove out of Chang'an City, and when you look at it, it was a different scene.
The sky is full of blue birds, willow catkins are flying, the ground is covered with thousands of green grass, and the road is full of fragrant grass. Zhongnan Mountain lies across the southern edge of the plain.
These women who are pampered and live in poverty immediately feel that their eyes are not enough, their eyelashes are leaping, and the spring waves are rippling.
It was with the creaking of the car hub and the jingling of the horse bell that spring slowly came over and unfolded the colorful picture in front of them.
The eldest princess glanced at Wei Zifu, who was concentrating on enjoying the spring, and said, "What are the empress thinking?"
Wei Zifu's eyes were wet and his face was full of sadness: "Zifu remembered the interesting things he had with his mother in the fields when he was a child."
Speaking of which, this kind of emotion is naturally something that the eldest princess who grew up in the palace cannot understand.
What the eldest princess is now thinking about is that if Wei Qing was in the capital on this day, would she go out for an outing with her?
If they didn’t want so many guards to follow, and so many maids to serve them, they would be just two of them, riding two horses and walking leisurely in the spring breeze, how comfortable it would be!
But all this is not realistic, at least now, and Wei Qing is currently blocking the border, and her heart follows him all at once.
"Sister I heard that there was another victory in front of me?"
Wei Zifu nodded and said, "Yes! Your Majesty has sent Lord Ji to work abroad."
"There has been news from the palace that His Majesty has also entrust Qing'er to be the general, and this fief has increased by 8,700 more households."
Wei Junru said, then looked at the eldest princess sideways, and saw that her face was full of pride.
"The Taipu also went to war with the general, and I think I will receive rewards together." The eldest princess said carelessly.
But her words caused Wei Junru to be unhappy. She gently slapped the horse's butt with a horse whip, and even looked back at Wei Zifu.
