Chapter 12 Saying I Can't Take Care of It(1/2)

The imperial guards outside the door looked at Chen Xing and showed a nervous expression.

"I won't kill people like Shu Lukong," said Chen Xing. "Don't worry, just take me to the Worker's Cavalry and help me tell me the difference."

The guard waved his hand quickly, as if he was very nervous, and his eyes were only staring at the ring on Chen Xing's hand.

The guard obviously couldn't speak Chinese, and when he saw the ring, he was very embarrassed. Chen Xing remembered that this ancient luminous stone ring was picked by Tuoba Yan to him last night, so he said in Xianbei: "Where is Tuoba Yan?"

The guard immediately bowed and made a gesture of invitation, indicating that Chen Xing would wait here for a moment, turn around and run quickly to pass the news.

Chen Xing: "????"

After a while, a figure turned out from the end of the corridor, wearing a dark red martial robe and a wolf-toothed dagger about a foot long waist. It passed through the spring flowers in the Weiyang Palace. It was Tuoba Yan, who was in the wind in Yushu.

Chen Xing smiled and said, "Brother Tuoba!"

Tuoba Yan smiled in the spring breeze and looked around, as if he was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "Where to go? I'll accompany you."

Chen Xing hurriedly postponed, it was too troublesome to you, but Tuoba Yan smiled and said, "It's okay, it's boring to be on duty, so I'll walk around with you." As he said that, he took off a string of lapis lazuli beads on his wrist, handed them to Chen Xing, and said kindly, "Come on, I'll give it to you."

"No, no!" Chen Xing immediately said seriously, "Why are you giving me something again? You are just about to return the ring to you!"

Tuoba Yan wanted to give him something as soon as he met, which made Chen Xing very embarrassed. The two of them pushed around and pushed each other. Chen Xing wanted to take off the ring, but it was stuck and couldn't take it off. He insisted on not collecting it. Tuoba Yan said, "I have picked it off, how can I take it back?"

In the end, Chen Xing had to still wear the ring to explain his purpose. When Tuoba Yan thought about it, he said readily: "Okay, I'll take you there."

There were many guards in the palace, but they were obviously well-trained, walking like the wind, without looking sideways. When the patrolling guards saw Tuoba Yan, they retreated to two walks, bowed, performed Xianbei rituals, and gave in.

Waiting for the carriage at the palace gate, Tuoba Yan first asked Chen Xing to get on one. When Chen Xing was moving his seat, Tuoba Yan put down the curtain, turned over the horse, and followed the side. The royal guards led the way, and the scattered cavalry attendants followed. This was the treatment that only the Emperor of Qin had. Chen Xing couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. He opened the window and looked out. Tuoba Yan also glanced at him, pointed his left hand around the horse's reins, and signaled Chen Xing to look at the ring.

"You've been wearing it?" said Tuoba Yan.

"Uh, yes." Chen Xing vaguely felt something was wrong. Tuoba Yan was so enthusiastic about him. Could it be that he fell in love at first sight? I just don't know if Tuoba Yan is like this to everyone, or just to him.

Tuoba Yan's personality is not like a Xianbei person at all, but like a Hun. He never talks around the bush and asks again: "Why did you follow the Great Shanyu? What is your relationship?"

It would be fine if you didn't ask this. As soon as Chen Xing asked, he couldn't hold it in. He reached out from the carriage window and pulled Tuoba Yan's collar: "Listen to me, listen to me and say in detail..."

Chen Xing then talked about how he knew Xiang Shu and said to Tuoba Yan in its original form. Tuoba Yan was confused when he heard it. Finally, he went to the gate of the Worker Cao and nodded to him. As soon as the Worker Cao officials saw Tuoba Yan, they saluted one after another. The two of them were as if they had entered a no-man's land and reached the place where files were stored.

"…So,” Chen Xing said, "Now I have to investigate the changes in the government office."

"So that's it." Tuoba Yan thought about it and smiled, "I thought you were the family of the Great Shanyu. Some people have always said that he and the Han people are... well."

"What is it? Well..." Chen Xing just said that as soon as he spoke, he immediately felt that Tuoba Yan might want to say "I thought you were the wife of the Great Shanyu." In order to avoid embarrassment, both of them said nothing.

Under Fu Jian's rule, the court still followed the three-provincial system of the Jin Dynasty. Under the political affairs, there were also divided into the Ministry of Personnel, the five soldiers, Tian Cao, Du Branch, and the six ministers of the Left Min. The Ministry of Personnel was presided over the promotion of officials, and the palace was in charge of the imperial family, the palace, sacrificial ceremonial ceremonies. The five soldiers were recruited and started the war. Tian Cao was responsible for the country's land, water conservancy, and construction matters. The Ministry of Personnel was responsible for finance, while the left people were in charge of corvee service, and the population was mobilized. The six ministers were in charge of fifteen cadres, each of which had a doctor, responsible for the size of the political affairs.

The stewards Chen Xing visited were the corresponding government offices for the reconstruction and expansion of cities such as Chang'an and Luoyang. At that time, except for some military officers in the court, almost all civil officials were Han people, and their written exchanges were all used in Chinese. The court did not want to use Hu people, but the children of the Five Hu officials were only able to destroy the country. When it comes to governing the country, they really knew nothing. The text was not unified and they could not understand it. They couldn't help but scold the other barbarians when they quarreled. A group of barbarians were noisy and could not do anything in the end, so they had to seek help from the Han people.

Fu Jian was familiar with the books of sages since he was a child, yearning for the prosperity of poetry and books in the Central Plains. He knew that although the Hu people relied on their strength to dominate the north, they would never be able to last long. What's more, fighting is a matter of war, right in time, place, and people, and it is hard to say who wins and loses. The Han people only had a weak and weak situation in the past hundred years because of the Jin court's voice and sex. Regarding marching and fighting, the Han people were not ambiguous at all. Since ancient times, Duke Zhuang of Qin retreated to the Western Rong to save the Zhou royal family, and then to the Han Dynasty, even in the Cao Wei Dynasty, they beat all the tribes outside the border to cry and call their parents. When they heard the names of Li Guang, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and others, they could not walk.

It is precisely because of this that Fu Jian issued a strict order to make all the Hu tribes outside the border change their customs and read books from Han people. Otherwise, they would be the best place to be the monkey after all. They must take advantage of the decades when the Han people were temporarily unable to resist, otherwise they would be able to dominate the world quickly. Otherwise, when the master of the Central Plains came to his senses, what would happen? It is hard to say.

When the Doctor of the Worker Cao saw Tuoba Yan accompanying him, he knew that Chen Xing could not be negligent, so he personally took the sects from Chang'an City for him to read.

"Can you understand?" Tuoba Yan saw the dense silk in his eyes, with square characters on his head, which looked like a heavenly book to him.

"Of course!" Chen Xing replied speechlessly, "I am a Han person at least."

The Doctor Cao held his forehead with one hand and gave a wink at Chen Xing, meaning to be careful when talking to Hu Man and not anger them. Chen Xing sat upright and bowed a little, knowing that he had good intentions. The Doctor Cao said, "Two adults, please watch slowly." So he retreated.

Tuoba Yan: "This is an ancient text? Many Han people may not recognize it completely."

Chen Xing smiled and said, "I have been studying and writing since elementary school. I have learned it slowly with my father every day."

Tuoba Yan personally went to roll the curtain up a little, and it happened that the sky could shine in. Pear trees were planted everywhere in Chang'an City, and occasionally a few snow-white petals floated in. The spring air was refreshing.

"Can you recite "The Song of Yue"?" Tuoba Yan asked again.

Chen Xing was so amused that he opened the book: "Where is the evening tonight, and the boat flows. When is the day to today, I can have the same boat as the prince."

"I am so ashamed to be humiliated, and I will not be ashamed."

"I'm so upset that I'm not over yet, I've learned that the prince..."

Tuoba Yan smiled and said, "There are trees on the mountain, and the trees have branches."

Chen Xing casually said casually: "I am happy to you, you don't know."

The two sat upright on the wide couch, Chen Xing and his robe respectfully invited this seal to be found in the wooden box. The case school from hundreds of years ago barely put the pieces of Han Dynasty on the Han Dynasty and began to restore the map of Chang'an in the Han Dynasty.

Tuoba Yan was watching Chen Xing's actions as if he was magical. For a moment, only the sound of shredded paper was heard in the room. Chen Xing pieced together a map of half of Chang'an and found Tuoba Yan looking at him. When he contacted the eyes of the previous Doctor of the Worker Cao, he faintly noticed that there were too many undercurrents between the Hu people and the Han people in Chang'an. The two sides looked at each other with vigilance through the rivers that were difficult to pass.

The Hu people were wary of the Han people, and in this fear, they could taste a little "admiration". It seemed that the Han people were born to be superior to the Hu people, and now they fell into the mortal world like gods. They didn't know how to deal with the Five Barbarians and One Fashion, so they could only ignorantly and madly circle the once high-ranking masters of the Central Plains, and then vented their humiliation and venting their cruel desire to destruction.

"Do you want to learn Chinese characters?" Chen Xing thought of this and suddenly said to Tuoba Yan.

Tuoba Yan immediately said, "I think about it, but I can't learn it."

Chen Xing guessed that the great scholars in Chang'an City were tired of everyone and had no interest in developing educational methods for them, and were even more lazy to learn the language of barbarians such as Xianbei. They only taught casually. If they learned it, they would be their fortune. If they couldn't learn it, they would go with them. So he generously wrote a poem, which was "Everything and Running" in the first volume of "Nineteen Ancient Poems", and it was also the first poem when his father taught him to read, and he pronounced every word in Xianbei language.

"Everything is more important than doing, and we are separated from you," Tuoba Yan began to learn Chinese characters seriously. "It is more than ten thousand miles apart, and each one is at the end of the sky."

Chen Xing found the architectural marks of Chang'an, Han three hundred years ago, began to search the drawings of that year, and smiled and said, "Did Your Majesty Fu Jian ask you to read the books of the Han people and evaluate them?"

"More than just?" Tuoba Yan said helplessly, "There will be an exam on the first day of every month and the fifteenth day of the lunar month. When I was learning Chinese, I was taught by Master Wang Meng."

Tuoba Yan speaks Chinese very fluently, but he can't recognize the words. Fortunately, Fu Jian also knew that it was not easy for military officers, and the assessment standards were slightly looser than those of civil servants.

"Wang Meng." Chen Xing stopped and thought of many things from this long-lost name. He went to the shelf to take off the corresponding drawings and said casually, "Your Majesty seems to like Han people very much."

Tuoba Yan stared at the paper, raised his eyes slightly, glanced at Chen Xing, and his eyes were taken back again, and said, "The decree issued at the beginning of this year, if you intermarry with your Han people, you will have a salary of one more. A pair of jade rings from the fifth rank or above will be given to him. Your Majesty will personally arrive to take charge of the marriage for the children of all races."

Chen Xing smiled and said, "Then, Brother Tuoba is planning to seek a Han wife?"

Tuoba Yan's face suddenly turned red. Seeing Chen Xing tiptoe to reach the scroll on the top of the bookshelf, he stood up and took a large bundle for him, raised his finger, pointed at it, and replied, "I want to wait a little longer, just because Your Majesty has a decree that is about to be promulgated."

"Oh?" Chen Xing reached out to take the scroll and said, "What law?"

"At that time, no matter men or women in the world, they can be wives." Tuoba Yan replied seriously.

Chen Xing didn't catch it immediately, and the scroll fell all over the ground.

Chen Xing: “…”

Tuoba Yan hurriedly bowed and picked it up for him and said, "It's still you Han people who are opposing it, otherwise it would have been done."

"Isn't this nonsense?" Chen Xing was simply out of temper. "How did the man get married? Your Majesty is too messy!"

Tuoba Yan retorted: "Why can't you get married?"

Chen Xing: "This..."

Chen Xing picked up the scroll, and after Tuoba Yan explained, he knew that Fu Jian had this idea. A few years ago, Fu Jian favored Princess Qinghe and Murong Chong's siblings, especially with Murong Chong, and called him "Phoenix". He did not avoid the discussions of the world.

Since ancient times, the superiors have had their own preferences, and the nobles of various tribes began to imitate Fu Jian. Especially as a warrior, they often pursued beautiful young men and talked about love. The customs of Chang'an became more and more intense. However, all aristocratic families were named after the name of a righteous family, but in fact they formed the favors of Qin and Jin, which was a way of praise.

Only the Han people in Chang'an thought that if we raise male pets, we will raise male pets. It is the only thing that our ancestors have played with. Since Liu Bang, there have been fewer such things? Is it a problem to say it openly?

Fu Jian looked around again and sighed, but he couldn't let go of the Pingyang Prefect Murong Chong who went to Hejian. He decided to implement a new marriage order across the country, encouraging all males of Hu Han and males of the right age to marry. He seemed to want to use this new method to express his heart to Murong Chong.

Now that the Han civil servants are collectively exploded, how can this be done? This is a subversion of ethics, disorder of yin and yang, and the world is a big deal, and it is contrary to the laws of ancestors and sages! If you don’t say anything else, there are three kinds of unfilial piety, and having no descendants is the greatest. What should you do if you have children?

Is Fu Jian’s response to this, can he take a concubine, or adoption is OK, right?

No, no, the civil servants are in a turbulent relationship, so they quickly give advice. Let’s not talk about the problems of their descendants. It is a terrible laugh to marry men. I have never heard of them! Of course, these scholars are also very scared. If the man is allowed to marry him, wouldn’t it be a loss of reputation if he is forced to marry him by a Hu military officer!

Fu Jian's response was that since ancient times, I have never heard of the foreign tribes becoming emperors on the land of China. I will not ascend the throne as usual? What's the problem? Do you think so?

Chen Xing quickly said, "Yes, yes, yes, I'm not going to be old anymore... I want to look forward to the long term and accept new things."

So Tuoba Yan lowered his head and read the poem, saying, "I see you, um...so..."

Chen Xing suddenly felt a little dangerous, encouraging Hu Han to intermarry and men to get married. Does this mean something you said today...?

"So?" Chen Xing said alertly, "So what?"

"So I thought you were the wife of the Great Shanyu." Tuoba Yan said seriously.

"How could I be his wife!" Chen Xing roared, almost causing the case to be raised. "If you want to say that he is my wife! No! This is not a question of who is who is his wife. I have nothing to do with that bastard Xiang Shu..."

In Weiyang Palace.

"Hajiu!" Xiang Shu suddenly sneezes, which scared everyone in the hall.

As time passed, the number of visitors had changed. Last night, when news came out of Weiyang Palace, Chang'an families heard that the young leader of the Shulu family had entered Beijing and quickly came to say goodbye. Fu Jian was the most generous to his old friends outside the border. The one who was waiting for Xiang Shu was obviously the treatment of Kaifu Yi and the three departments.

Although there is no news about the specific official position, it is probably not lower than that of the Taiwei. Xiang Shu is even more supported by the Chile Ancient Alliance. If you don’t ask for your marriage at this time, it will be too late to delay it for a few more days!

The eldest sons all want to inherit the family business. The young men brought by each family are all young sons without exception. In addition, there are also fathers and brothers who bring their daughters to be used for the Grand Chanyu to appreciate. Xiang Shu who likes men and women, send them to him first for a brief look.

Xiang Shu was upset when he was quarreled, but he was all nobles. He had to take care of his son and could not beat him up.

So I saw the young men in the hall looking picturesque, with Xianbei people, Xiongnu people, and Di people, each with their own style. The six or seven families of Five Barbarians even sent the portraits to him.

The young men poured tea for Xiang Shu one by one cup in turn. It was the etiquette of the ancient alliance. It originated from the nomadic peoples outside the border. A young man came to the door. If the girl fell in love, she would carry a pot and pour a cup of tea to show that she could get to know each other. When they were empty, they would gallop on horseback, taking the sky as the quilt as the ground as the mat, making a thrilling moment. If they didn't like it, they would avoid it and instead put the father and brother on the tea, which meant that you were too unsatisfactory, so let's get out.

Over time, it evolved into a cup of milk tea with your own hands to show sincerity.

Xiang Shu really didn't understand. Fu Jian liked to play Murong Chong, so it would be fine if he did it himself, but why did he instigate the whole Chang'an to start getting better. He didn't drink the milk tea, but he just wanted to try it out because of which one he drank.

There are so many families, all Hu nobles, and it is not easy to slap them in the face on the spot. Xiang Shu had to say: "I will send the milk tea that has not moved later, and the same is true for empty cups."

As he said that, he glanced at the side of the copper leak. After looking at Shichen, his brows frowned slightly.
