The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 337 Du Arsenal Orders Troops ([-])

The time came to AD [-].

In this year, the state of Jin changed to Yuan.The new year name is Jianwu.On New Year's Day of this year, shortly after the morning bell in the center of Luoyang rang, there was a dull and rapid drumbeat.

"Your Majesty ordered that this year's New Year's Day be counted at the North School Field! Officials with more than [-] shi in the court, and their children, should arrive at the North School Field before noon to watch the ceremony!"

"Your Majesty ordered that soldiers be ordered at the North Campus at noon! All officials and their children should go to watch the ceremony on time..."

The drums beat, and the sound shook the nine heavens.Jingqi from all walks of life shouted all over the city.After hearing the news, the concierges of the big bosses rushed to report to the backyard.

"Patriarch, His Majesty ordered..."

"Understood, come here and put on the armor for the master. Go and inform Jun'er to come to the front hall as soon as possible. The North Campus is not close to here."

"promise!"

Shang Shuling, Julu County Duke Pei's Mansion.After Pei Xiu received the report from the concierge, she immediately ordered her servants to put armor on herself—on New Year’s Day, according to the previous rules, courtiers with more than two thousand stones should go outside the palace to congratulate the emperor on the New Year, and then the emperor rewarded him with something small.After that, everyone went home happily for the New Year.As a result, this year is actually a spot!His Majesty's intention to refresh himself couldn't be more obvious.

So, Pei Xiu put on the armor very cooperatively - hey, this armor is really heavy.

"Report to Patriarch, the young one can't find the young master."

"What? It's New Year's Day! What are you doing out so early in the morning?"

"Uh……"

"Why are you hesitating? I, Pei Xiu, are not Shi Zhongrong who kill people at every turn. What's wrong?"

"Patriarch, the young master went out late at night after watching the new year last night, and has not returned yet."

"You bastard! You must have gone out to chat with those cronies again! Go find it, go find it quickly! The first choice is the Shi family. If the Shi family doesn't have one, go to the Xun family, Wang family, and Pan family... Hey, send more people. Go find them at the same time!"

"promise!"

"Hey, this kid. How can you be obsessed with literature and gossip all day long. Can these things be tolerated in this world?"

Not to mention that Pei Xiu was expressing emotion in vain.The servants of the Pei Mansion got the order of the Patriarch, and hurriedly searched for their young master.

Not only the Pei family was caught off guard at this time, but also the mansions of many other court officials, after receiving this sudden order, all kinds of chaos were thrown around.

The mansion of General Jianwei, Marquis of Anfengting, Wang Rong and Wang Suichong.

"Hahahahaha~~~~hehehehe~~~~吹吹吼吧~~~~" A young man who was naked in the winter, but his whole body was red, and he couldn't stop exuding heat waves, had a strange complexion and behavior Madly rampaging around the entire palace.Wherever he passed, the servants of the palace watched his actions nervously.After predicting the person's advancing route, quickly remove all kinds of obstacles on the route.If this person ran towards the doorpost or near the wall, no way, only the maid used her body as a pad.

"When will the Patriarch be able to take the clothes off?"

"A quarter of an hour ago."

"In this way, it will take another hour to finish the walk. But His Majesty's oral order..."

"Hey, there is no other way. The Patriarch is like this, even if he goes, he will be scolded by His Majesty. We have to prepare the ox cart and so on. When the Patriarch wakes up, we will leave."

"Good, that's all I have to do."

At the same time, Lelinghou Mansion.

It used to be called Leling County Government House.Its owner is Shibao.Guanzhong was defeated, and Shi Bao's title was reduced, so this place became the Marquis' Mansion.

Even so, as a corrupt official who dared to sell large quantities of armor to enemy countries, the Shi family definitely had a lot of money.The singer and maidservant in Shifu are also well-known in the circle of Luoyang high-ranking officials' children for their obedience and willingness to ask for anything.Therefore, although the owner here has faded out of the power center, this place is still the first choice for gatherings in the yamen.

Although it has passed the time of Chen, the winter sun is already high in the sky, and the whole sky is already bright.But in a side hall of Shifu, it was still brightly lit.Not only that, except for the crackling sound of all kinds of butter wax and high-quality Jingyao wax.There is actually a lot of incense in this room.

"Huh~~~Hey, this burning knife is still too strong, and it's a little less mellow than the fragrance through the bottle."

"Xun Maobo, don't be picky there. After fighting in Guanzhong for a year, the supply of this liquor was cut off for a year. I sneaked under my father's bed to steal such a small amount of burning knives. If you didn't say today It’s New Year’s Day, so I’m reluctant to take it out!”

"Tch~~~Qi Nuer, you don't even have a watch, who will you be my father?"

"I am [-] this year, and I will be crowned within the year! Oh, yes, all of you present will have to come to watch the ceremony."

"Hey hey, if you can get a bottle of incense, we'll come!"

Hmph, the guy who said this is either from a low family background, or the elders in the family have a very strict tone: don't you know that Shu thieves will start selling all kinds of alcohol this year?And it's a regional monopoly.In the Luoyang court, didn't all the slightly powerful families send their capable children to Chang'an a while ago?
Although he drank a lot of wine, Shi Chong's mind was still very clear.So, he didn't say anything about it at all.

"Hey, when will the fragrance of the bottle come out? If this continues, will it be possible to rely on five stones again?"

"Yes, yes, the new wine is out of stock, and the five stone powder is selling again. Those alchemists who didn't know where to hide a while ago came out to sell it everywhere."

"Hey, after taking the five stone powder, it is true that it can make people completely empty. But after eating it once, the body's other reactions are also great. Compared with this new wine, it is still a lot worse."

"Of course, um, An Ren, has there been an article praising new wine recently?"

The Anren here is, of course, the famous handsome man, Pan Yue Pan Anren, later known as Pan An of Tanlang.In addition to being handsome, this person is also one of the best in the world.In the historical plane and later after the fall of Soochow, Lu Ji, who entered the Jin Dynasty and became an official, is collectively known as "Panjiang Luhai".

However, if someone asks Pan An on this occasion if he has written any masterpieces on wine recently, it is not to make Pan An famous, but to ridicule him: these days, due to the cut off of supply, the high-ranking households cannot drink new wine.You, Pan An, are a child of an ordinary gentry family, and now you are just living under Jia Chong's command as an aide, how can you drink new wine?If you can't drink new wine, how can you write an article—smelly shameless shabby household, this is a real gathering of high-ranking officials, why are you sour literati here to join in the fun?The key is that TM's still looks so handsome!All the beautiful maidservants from the Shi family who came out to accompany the wine are stealing glances at you.This is really infuriating!
Although from the point of view of later generations, this Pan An didn't figure out what the officialdom was from the beginning to the end, and he went up and down many times, not to mention the gentleness, and in the end he lost the lives of his whole family.But now he can still hear the obvious contempt and ridicule.The handsome man suddenly felt ashamed.But because his status is too low, it is difficult to speak back.

"Okay, okay, An Ren was invited by me." At this time, the one who came out to smooth things over was Pei Jun, the eldest son of Pei Xiu who was sending people to search everywhere.Thanks to Pei Xiu, this person now has such a dignified official position as a Sanqi regular servant. Except for Xun Kai and Xun Maobo, who is almost 30 years old but shamelessly squeezed here to pretend to be tender, among this group of teenagers and 20s His son Geli, his official position is the highest.

"Everyone, I also had a rest just now, let's continue with last night's topic."

"Berton's words are the truth. You laymen, what's the point of talking about wine every day. Come here, clean up the case and everything, and then you all stand down!"

The Shi family's current situation is very bad, so Shi Chong followed Shi Bao's wishes and tried his best to win over and make friends with the rich and powerful children of each family.Jia Mi, the heir and grandson of Mr. Jia Chong, is not even a single cell.Only Pei Xiu's eldest son, Pei Jun, is the most attractive.

It is not without reason that Shifu's servants are famous.Soon, the entire meeting place was cleared.Various oxygen-consuming candles were also extinguished.During the short period of opening the windows for ventilation, the cold wind from outside blows in, which refreshes everyone who is drowsy!
"Good, then let's continue the conversation from last night. The so-called theory of saints being sentient and ruthless and saints having sex and ruthless. Before the pause last night, An Ren's talk was very vigorous. At this moment, I would like to invite... er, my nephew to visit Shi Shibo."

"You virtuous nephews, excuse me. Just now, I received an order from His Majesty to ask the imperial court for more than [-] shi...and the children of each family to go to the North School Field for a military parade. I think the heads of all the families are looking for you. Hurry up and go home and change clothes! Don't be late! "
