Chapter 2147 Smooth
Zhang Xuezhou has not studied fashion design, but he knows a little about it.

Part of it is related to the fact that he has seen various modern costumes in the real world, as well as many traditional costumes of the Louvre Dynasty, and also because he needs to change the style of his clothes frequently when wearing them.

As the Taizhong doctor who suggested changing the court dress, after he made the relevant suggestion and the emperor agreed to implement it, Zhang Xuezhou really needed to design the relevant costumes.

"Wait until tomorrow. When you are punished for wearing the wrong clothes, you will hate me and find fault with me, or even impeach me. When His Majesty hears the memorial, he will punish me severely and confiscate my position. Then I won't have to do this job anymore!"

Zhang Xuezhou rarely had time to do any serious work, which made him, who was used to being idle, feel a little uncomfortable. He felt like he had become a hard-working ox or horse.

But Zhang Xuezhou didn't do this job for long. After all, he just wanted to cause resentment and be impeached, so the clothes didn't need to be exquisitely designed.

On the basis of the original court dress, he only made slight adjustments and established differences in the dress of officials of different titles.

People don't like being constrained, and you never know when they might be punished for their cleverness.

"I don't know if I'll be impeached for wearing the wrong clothes. Forget it, I'd better stick to the rules and let others make mistakes!"

Zhang Xuezhou thought about it for a while.

Zhang Xuezhou's position as Taizhong Daifu was under the jurisdiction of the prime minister, but just as the court allowed the county magistrate Wen Weng to govern Shu County, the prime minister rarely supervised how they did things.

Zhang Xuezhou was busy in the Imperial Household Department with several senior embroiderers for a long time, and felt that his work was done.

"Wearing a crimson robe on the outside, and a black collared inner garment on the inside, with a purple ribbon and two colors, tucked into a tiger-headed sling bag, this is the court dress for military officials. Wearing a black robe on the outside, and a black collared inner garment on the inside, with a blue ribbon and three colors, tucked into a tiger-headed sling bag, this is the court dress for civil officials. Is this how Lord Dongfang has reformed it?"

When Zhang Xuezhou was about to go out, he saw that his superior, Prime Minister Xu Chang, had also come to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Xu Chang was already seventy-five years old and looked extremely old. The fact that he was able to serve as prime minister was not because of any special ability. Xu Chang had been doing nothing for several years during his tenure.

But Xuchang had a great advantage, which was that he obeyed the orders of Anle Palace in everything, which was no different from the Empress Dowager managing the court.

The Empress Dowager's way of managing the court was to seek stability in everything and she did not like any unexpected factors brought about by any changes.

Xu Chang entered the embroidery room of the Imperial Household Department. After seeing the clothing sketches drawn by Zhang Xuezhou on silk, he felt that Zhang Xuezhou had good skills in clothing and was obviously well prepared for the changes in court dress. However, Xu Chang also felt that Zhang Xuezhou was not well prepared and the court dress did not undergo major changes.

This is Xu Chang's favorite situation, he really doesn't like "change".

He could allow Zhang Xuezhou to change the court dress, but he did not want it to be changed into a mess.

It was very good that Zhang Xuezhou followed the ancient customs and passed down the clothing. Xuchang felt that he could accept this reform of court dress.

"Prime Minister, our original court dress is very good," Zhang Xuezhou said, bowing his hands. "It's just that some people have wealthy families, so they can wear the same as you today. If they wear the same as Your Majesty in the future, or even wear more luxuriously than Your Majesty, it will not be a good thing after all!"

"What Doctor Taizhong said makes sense!"

Xu Chang nodded.

Being able to become the prime minister, Xu Chang was not open-minded, but he really didn't care if other officials dressed the same as him.

But Zhang Xuezhou mentioned that some officials might dress more luxuriously than the emperor, which is another matter.

A set of luxurious clothes is not cheap, but it is expensive and many people can afford it. If there really is someone who dresses more luxuriously than an emperor, this is not impossible.

Xu Chang originally wanted to come to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to remind Zhang Xuezhou to prevent him from causing turmoil in the court later, but he finally felt that what Zhang Xuezhou said made sense.

"Things can be casual, but they can't be too casual!"

The Huang-Lao Dao, which is now popular in the imperial family, originated from the Zhou Dynasty, not the Qin Dynasty. The Zhou Dynasty lasted for 800 years, while the Qin Dynasty only lasted for a few decades. It was not difficult for the Han Dynasty to choose who to learn from.

The royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty was extremely relaxed in governing the world. Except for matters involving their own safety, they rarely exercised tough governance. The languages, writing systems, and costumes of the hundreds of fiefdoms were different.

Xu Chang felt that there was nothing wrong with looser clothing, but he also felt that what Zhang Xuezhou said made some sense.

He agreed to unify the dress without making major changes to the court uniforms, so as to avoid the problems mentioned by Zhang Xuezhou and evade possible court turmoil in advance.

As long as "stability" is the premise, Xuchang feels that the situation is acceptable.

"The Empress Dowager is very pleased with your recommendation of Taoist Li Shaojun. After you have completed your duties, please go to Anle Palace to express your gratitude!"

Putting aside the matter of Zhang Xuezhou's change of court dress, Xu Chang also reminded him that Zhang Xuezhou's position as Taizhong Daifu depended on the strong support of Anle Palace.

Xu Chang also explained why Zhang Xuezhou was able to easily become Taizhong Daifu.

"If some people make things difficult for you, you should draw up a scroll of their requests and submit it to Anle Palace," Xu Chang reminded again.

"Thank you for your advice, Prime Minister. After my sleep period is over, I will go to Anle Palace to pay a visit to the Empress Dowager for her support!"

Zhang Xuezhou bowed to express his gratitude.

He did not make any major changes to the court dress, and about half a month was enough time to equip many officials with new court dress. The new emperor would most likely identify an example, and as time went by, the matter would fall on him, and he would be able to successfully complete the promotion issue.

Since he had lost his official position, there was no need for him to go to Anle Palace to express his gratitude.

Zhang Xuezhou agreed with his mouth, but in his heart he was happy thinking about how he had quickly gotten rid of the many troubles.

If possible, he hopes to get everything settled within half a month.

Of course, if the matter was not handled properly, he would take Zhenyuan Shenjun to the Yedihe Holy Land for a circle. It would take another month to go there and sleep there. If he took office again and did not take care of the matter, it would inevitably lead to impeachment. The matter should finally come to an end.

Although he had lost his official position, Zhang Xuezhou was able to retain his position as an "Examiner" and enter the palace. He felt that his plan to enter the court had been basically realized.

"Twenty-one years old in the realm of magical power!"

Zhang Xuezhou said goodbye to Xu Chang. When he occasionally recalled the new emperor's cultivation, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

The new emperor has not been practicing for a long time. Zhang Xuezhou even knows the time it takes for the new emperor to break through to a new realm, which is almost one new realm per year.

This speed of breakthrough is not as fast as Kong Anguo's years of accumulation, but the new emperor's pace is fast and steady, and he has even reached the late stage of cultivation.

The speed above the realm of supernatural powers may be slower. After all, the new emperor has too many things to settle down. Even though Zhang Xuezhou is still practicing various techniques today, he is not sure whether the new emperor will enter the realm of egoism in a few years after the pace slows down, or whether he will reach the realm of true self in ten years.

"Your Majesty said that he won the bet when he entered the realm of magical power. He must have used the power of luck, and he must have been constantly practicing the art of luck, and he may have even made great progress!"

In reality, Zhang Xuezhou can gather luck with the help of the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum, and in the Han Dynasty, he is close to the king, and can also benefit from promoting luck with the new emperor.

Now, he can finally openly enjoy the benefits of good fortune and continue to promote localized content such as "Jae-yoo".

Zhang Xuezhou had to say that even though he relied on the Tongtian Jade Ruler to drill a hole in the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum, the luck of the Dongshan Imperial Mausoleum he adopted was not the luck of the orthodox dynasty, but the method left by Huang Daoxian. The practice of luck seemed more like a shortcut through crooked ways.

In the Han Dynasty, methods such as "Zaiyou" that were adapted to the emperor were the orthodox practices.

Only when the orthodox practice goes smoothly can he recognize his own practice of martial arts in reality, and correct himself in time if he goes astray.
