Chapter 130 Trivia
At that time, when it was still dark outside, Lu Weimang and his father went to the Yamen and left.

On the one hand, Lu Weimang felt nostalgic, and on the other hand, he felt that there were two younger brothers who started school earlier than him and left earlier, and it seemed that it was not so early to go to the government by himself.Sure enough, happiness is all compared.

"Didn't you pass the Qiuwei exam in Chengyang? Why do you still go to the academy so early every day?"

Lu Weimang was talking to his father, when Lu Qingshan heard Lu Weimang mentioning his eldest son, he chuckled, "Chengyang really did honor to our old Lu family, those old guys of mine, all let the children in the family enter the city guard , but I have an errand, so I won’t just dawdling around. We, Chengyang, passed the Qiuwei exam in a serious way, so I don’t need his father to worry about his future. In the past, the scholar’s ​​twists and turns Don't let us suffer from being dumb, this is all right, when Cheng Yang passes the exam, I will let my son give us a sigh of relief!"

At the beginning of the new dynasty, military generals were appointed to many official positions in the court. After all, people followed you to conquer the world, and conquered the world. Can't you kick all the old buddies?Moreover, there are many people in this court, so the emperor will not be fooled by the people below.

But to be honest, like Lu Qingshan, who can fight with a lot of bravery, governing the country is a layman.So every time they have a dispute with the civil servants, they often can't justify the scholars, and sometimes they have to be aggrieved even if they are justified.So this time Lu Chengyang was born out of nowhere, the generals were happy to see it succeed, and they all hoped that Lu Chengyang would be their mouth in the future and fight against the civil officials.

Seeing his father's excited face, as if the day when his son Lu Chengyang would vent his anger on him is not far away, looking forward to it, Lu Weimang was speechless.

Why have there been constant party disputes between the DPRK and China since ancient times?Because your ideas and decrees need the support of people, regardless of the camp, and pull your own people, no matter how high the official is, what's the use?Government orders can't go out of the Yamen, and they can't do anything they want.It's time for the emperor to be emptied!

Therefore, civil servants and military generals are naturally opposed, and it has nothing to do with individuals, but they have different positions.

Lu Chengyang, an orthodox civil servant who came from the military general Xungui's family, was born to be excluded because of his position.However, the old man is still adding oil and vinegar to the side, as if you are waiting, then those civil servants, can Lu Chengyang easily gain a foothold in the court?There is a high probability that once Lu Chengyang enters the court, he will be excluded.Unless he can unite a group of friends to support him, otherwise, he can only fight alone like Lu Weimang.However, civil servants have many rules. If you are picked to get up, even if you walk with your right foot first, someone will have an explanation.

Lu Weimang thought about the difficulties his brother might face, and then looked at the excited father. He could only wait for the office to talk to Cheng Yang.

"Girl, get out of the carriage first, Huo Hou is waiting for you at the gate of the city!"

After hearing the words, Lu Weimang came back to his senses, opened the curtain of the carriage, jumped out of the carriage, "Have you waited for a long time?"

Huo Jing reached out and took Lu Weimang's hand in his hand. Before Lu Weimang could break free, he let go of it naturally, "It's hot, it's okay."

Lu Weimang glanced around at the sights around him, and stood on the other side of Huo Jing, "My body has recovered a long time ago. I don't like the cold, just like I like sunny days, I don't like cloudy days, I just like it or not, not because of the body."

"Ah."

The two of them waited in the square in front of Chengming Hall to go up to court.

On weekdays, Lu Weimang doesn't have to go to court, but isn't today the first day after finishing his errands and returning to court, he should go to court to give an explanation to His Majesty.But this explanation is mainly done by Huo Jing, with Lu Weimang as a foil.

The second time he went to court, Lu Weimang became much calmer, and followed Huo Jing to the right and back, listening to Huo Jing's report.

Huo Jing's report did not mention sensitive words such as spies. He went to Yangzhou in the name of an imperial envoy to monitor Yangzhou's officialdom. At this time, he naturally reported that the officials who were dealt with in Yangzhou had bad official style, colluded with each other, and practiced favoritism and fraud.

As soon as Huo Jing's voice fell, a person stood up in the civil service team and refuted Huo Jing.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I heard that Lord Huo Hou had acted cruelly in the south of the Yangtze River. He almost wiped out the top officials in Yangzhou, causing the people of Yangzhou to panic and the place to be unstable."

This is a civil official. When he said something, it meant that although Huo Jing did not commit any crimes, and the officials he dealt with had convincing evidence of crimes, it did not prevent him from opposing Huo Jing's actions.

The general stopped doing it immediately, why?Thank you for your efforts?You little mouths say that Huo Jing's trip to Yangzhou is not only useless, but also guilty!

"Old Shacai, what do you mean? Which one of Huo Hou's actions is not in accordance with the law, which can also make you picky? Did you take the benefits from someone to stand up and speak to them? , blame Huo Hou?"

There is no technical content when the general speaks, and he directly attacks personally.

The civil servant was naturally not afraid of such flimsy personal attacks, he wished the generals would say more, so that His Majesty could see the level of the generals.Immediately, his beard curled up, and he raised his head, "The old man is just discussing the matter, Huo Hou is not in a hurry, what are you in a hurry for?"

A light and fluffy sentence angered the general, "You old man..."

If it was normal, there should be a scene. Sometimes the emperor was watching a play so lively that no one would stop him, and the generals and civil servants would start a fight.

The civil servants at this time have also learned the six arts, and on the premise of not using weapons, they will not be too disadvantaged.

Occasionally, Lu Weimang heard his father say that someone would choke and fight again when they went to court. With that excitement, he immediately understood the motivation of the ministers to go to court on time every day. This opportunity to watch a big show on the spot fell to Lu Weimang. Mang, she will definitely come to court on time every day.

But for today's matter, the civil servant made a wrong decision, and the Yangzhou matter was related to the crime of treason by spies.

"All right."

On the high platform, His Majesty said a faint "Okay" with no emotion, and made everyone quiet, including the two who were bickering just now.

"Everyone has heard Huo Hou's report on the matter of Yangzhou. The time in the morning court is limited. If you have any ideas, you can submit the papers individually. I will check them one by one and consider them carefully."

His Majesty's words stopped the dispute in an instant, and everyone bowed in response. Next, the court will discuss other matters.

Lu Weimang and Huo Jing returned to their positions, facing the accusation and defense just now, they didn't say a word.

After the early court, His Majesty did not summon Huo Jing and Lu Weimang immediately, but waited until the end of Yinshi before summoning them.

"Sit down first and take a look at the brochures in your hand. I will also read the few in hand before I talk."

The two sat in the Chengming Palace, before His Majesty dealt with state affairs, he picked up the booklet and read it. "Sure enough, after the early dynasty, they participated in the Yangzhou events."

There were those who praised Huohou's achievements, and those who praised Huohou secretly. Lu Weimang looked through them one by one, and felt that the military commander's cultural accomplishment was really inferior to that of civil servants, and his characters were far behind. Father's handwriting still needs to be practiced.

"how?"

When His Majesty's voice came, Lu Weimang put the notebook in his hand on the case, and only listened to Huo Jing talking to His Majesty.

"Write down the name first. It should be people from Yangzhou. Due to their filial piety in the past, they were short-handed, so they came forward to speak. However, it is not ruled out that some real meticulous work is involved. With these people on the paper, Copy out the list and focus on monitoring for a period of time, don't take it too seriously."

Huo Jing said it lightly, Lu Weimang nodded secretly.

"Lu Weimang, tell me."

was named.

"The ministers in the DPRK and China have their own positions. Just looking at this report, the lower officials dare not criticize it. It's just a matter of stepping up precautions."

Seriously, everyone has a position.Some people become officials just to glorify their ancestors or to support their families. Who, like Your Majesty and Huo Jing, regards the big work as their own hard work, manages it with heart, and hates destroyers?

"Ah."

His Majesty flipped through these notebooks and agreed lightly.

After a long time, His Majesty got up after finishing his government affairs. Lu Weimang got up with Huo Jing.

"Let's go, I'm going to visit your aunt after I'm done with business. Your aunt complained to me many times, saying that you just came back from northern Xinjiang, and you haven't slowed down yet. It's just another errand. But do it carefully. , I don’t trust anyone except you. They are all colleagues of the same age, so they will inevitably have concerns, and they will not be willing to do anything. They are so friendly, you have to be like Yangzhou, ruthless, piercing the sky, and I will support you."

Lu Weimang nodded obediently.

Huo Jing stretched out his hand, held Lu Weimang's, and gave her a comforting smile.

...

"It can be considered that I have come back. I have been worried since you went out. There will be no big things in the future. You will stay with me. Your Majesty, before Yuan Bai and Wei Mang get married, you are not allowed to send them out of Beijing again!"

The queen is still as bright and beautiful as ever, and the years seem to have bypassed her, and she hasn't changed in any way when she met Lu Weimang a few years ago.

Here with the queen, His Majesty completely lost the seriousness he had in Qiande Hall, with a smile on his face, like a neighbor's uncle.

"Listen to you, listen to you, otherwise, my ears won't be clean."

Only then was the queen satisfied, and looked at Lu Weimang again, "The time for you to come back is just in time, the twelfth lunar month and the ceremony of Ji are still early, just before Ji, you can come to me more and learn some rules and etiquette."

Lu Weimang wanted to object subconsciously, but he couldn't find a reason for a while, but Huo Jing said indifferently at this time, "Aunt, didn't you say that the rules and etiquette are for others to see? And you have already contracted the etiquette, Wei Wei It will be good for Mang to cooperate with you when the time comes, so where can I use my special training?"

One thing down one thing.Your Majesty has no room to retaliate in front of the empress, and the empress is also bullied everywhere in front of Huo Jing.

The empress glared at her nephew, then looked at Lu Weimang with a smile, "Yuan Bai also made sense. How about it, in the middle of the month, Ji Ji, the granddaughter of Duke Anguo, you go to watch the ceremony with me. With your wisdom, Just watch it once and you’ll be fine.”

Lu Weimang breathed a sigh of relief, "Listen to your mother's orders."
