Chapter 11: Upgrade to three levels in a row
Fang (pan), a little bit Fang (pan), very, very Fang (pan), just like a beautiful woman secretly kissing her eyes closed failed, but was broken into the house by the beauty's grandfather and caught her in a panic!
Until now, Zhang Qian finally understood why, as a second-rank servant, Yang Lao Fox neither dealt with national affairs nor comforted the frightened emperor, but he went around most of the Daming Palace and came to dig a hole for himself, the eighth-rank chief clerk.
If someone else's grandfather was replaced, he would probably not let him go if he realized someone wanted to steal his granddaughter.
The problem is that this matter is very, very unfair! God is sorry for Zhang Qian, so far, has not figured out whether the ruby girl’s name is Qingfeng or Qingqing? Not to mention holding her hands and kissing her!
However, he could not explain to Yang Lao Fox in front of so many people that he had done nothing to the Ruby Girl.
We can't tell Yang that the idea of abducting the Ruby Girl was still on paper and it was not implemented at all.
Zhang Qian didn't even know how Yang's old fox noticed it, and he was trying to hit his granddaughter. After all, there were not so many cameras in this era, and Yang's old fox wouldn't be able to turn into a hacker and invade his mobile phone that had no network links.
‘Can she really liked me and told her grandfather about her thoughts?’ After a moment of panic, there was a bold assumption that penetrated into his mind like lightning, making him ecstatic.
‘No, it’s impossible! I and her, I have only met two times. The words I said were only ten in total!’ The next moment, all the joy turned into depression and suspicion, which made his chest feel like he was hit hard again.
‘How did Old Fox Yang realize that I was interested in her granddaughter? Or, he was the speaker who was unintentional, and I was self-indulgent?’ More confusion followed one after another, making him dizzy, and his hands and feet became clumsy and slow.
Gripping his teeth and plucking up his courage, he tried to look for some clues from the face of the old fox Yang with his eyes. However, he was shocked to find that the old man actually grabbed fruits and candied fruits and concentrated on feeding the giraffe!
"What does your old man mean? Can you please explain it clearly?" In disappointment, Zhang Qian hoped that the old fox Yang would say a few more words to him, even if he was just putting a trap on himself. In this way, he could spy on the old fox through indirect ways whether he really found that he had no intention of his granddaughter. Or, just now, it was a joke that the elderly said nonsense because they admired the young people.
However, until the giraffe was settled and returned to Zichen Hall together, the old fox Yang never mentioned the same thing to him. Even if the giraffe was a auspicious beast, he would not discuss with him. Occasionally, he would say a few words, all of which were important national affairs, and it was not related to his granddaughter.
However, Shuofang didn't general Zhou Jianliang. He realized that he had been worried about being recommended by the old fox to be the deputy supervisor of the lower maid. After the two stepped on the steps of Zichen Hall, because the level gap between them and the old fox was too great, they had to open the distance again, quietly leaned their ears to his ears, comforting with a very low voice: "Don't be afraid, Brother Zhao, then Yang Shizhong is the old minister of the Saint Queen. Although his position is high, his words may not be so effective. What's more, when you sacrificed your life to lead the strange beast, the Saint was in Zichen Hall. If you send you to raise horses, wouldn't it disappoint the loyal and righteous people in the world?!"
"Thank you, Brother Zhou! Actually, there is nothing wrong with raising horses!" Zhang Qian's eyes kept flashing in front of him, the figure of the ruby girl jumping onto the mount and hurried away, responding listlessly.
He was a concubine for the Tubo king wearing open-crotch pants, and was far away from his parents' home. This feeling is probably no better than being exiled for thousands of miles.
Mr. Bi Gou was demoted for thousands of miles, and at least he had family care. When he encountered trouble, he could still discuss with his wife and children to overcome difficulties. If the Ruby Girl encountered trouble in Tubo, he might not even be able to find anyone who could give advice behind him.
In this way, no wonder she saw a little rabbit separated from her parents that day, which hurt her own life experience.
The little rabbit was separated from her parents, and it may be that she was lost and could not find her nest for a while. However, she was handed over by her parents because of the emperor's decree, and she may be proud to devote her to her.
"The golden hairpin fell from the ground and covered with clouds. Isn't it true that I have left Chaoyang Emperor? I sent my concubine to the country and I don't know where to use a general." Thinking of the ruby girl, who was probably favored by the emperor for her family, personally named her as a dowry and renowned for Tubo, while her grandfather Yang Qian was in a high position, but she had no courage to stop her. Zhang Qian felt even more and more sad. The poem written by Chen Shanfu, a Tang Dynasty man, appeared in his heart uncontrollably.
If a daughter could quell the war, there would not be so many kings who had lost their country in history. If the men of the Tang Dynasty were not good, they might not have any status to marry a princess in Tubo, let alone a dowry mother?
Those who have more scheming may be able to live until old age by pleasing their husbands. Those who have less scheming and cannot bear grievances may not be able to die in a mess in the future. However, her parents' family dare not ask about the cause of her death. It is said that from beginning to end, there has never been this daughter!
"Use Zhao, stand here, you are a civil servant, come and stand with us!" Just as he was thinking in dismay, Zhang Jiuling's concerned voice came from his ears. Immediately, he grabbed his arm with one hand, pulled him away from Zhou Jianliang, and pulled him all the way to the ranks of civil servants opposite him.
"Oh, oh, sorry, this is my first time chasing the court!" Zhang Qian was pulled aside, and finally forced himself to cheer up and bowed to the people around him.
A group of green robes and light green robes around him smiled and bowed to him. No one noticed that his behavior was abnormal.
It is obvious that everyone is a little Sesame Guaner who has never seen the emperor in his eighth lifetime. He suddenly had the honor of witnessing Tianyan up close, and was extremely nervous and excited. Tonight, Zhang Qian was far more than the only one who showed his progress and retreat.
Those who performed relatively normal, in addition to Zhang Jiuling, the head of the Ministry of Personnel who was responsible for greeting a group of green robes, were seven or eight senior officials standing in the front row who were wearing a little pale yellow or a little black or red.
However, except for the white-bearded old fox Yang Feng whom I just saw, Zhang Qian all had no match for his name. I believe that the other party may not know what Zhang Qian looks like in normal times, and would not take his ruthlessness too seriously.
"Use Zhao, the emperor saw your performance just now!" Unexpectedly, Zhang Qian, who was usually extremely calm and seemed to be very frank about fame and fortune, actually lost his chain at the critical moment. Zhang Jiuling thought he was too nervous because he was worried that Jun Qian was rude, so he quietly put his mouth towards him and encouraged him in a very low voice, "After you left with a strange beast, the emperor also sent an in-house minister to ask me about your name and resume of Zhou Biejiang. You don't have to worry, the emperor admires you very much for your loyalty and courage. Even if you behave in a more extraordinary way today, no one will investigate you!"
"Thank you!" Zhang Qian took a deep breath, completely rushing his messy thoughts out of his head, while carefully looking at the surrounding environment.
Compared with the university's auditorium and staircase classroom, Zichen Hall is actually not big. At best, it only accommodates one or two hundred people to hold meetings. The Tang Dynasty's pursuit was not as serious as the one played in TV series. Although the civil and military officials were in one row, while Emperor Li Xian was still resting in the back hall, the military officers or civil officials in the same row were all in a group of three people, and five people whispered together.
In addition, seven or eight brocade-covered "dumps" were placed on the left and right in front of the imperial throne. It was obvious that it was for older ministers like Yang Sheng, or trusted ministers like the Minister of the Shangshu to avoid them from falling down because they had been discussing the matter for too long.
However, everyone has just entered the hall, so the humeral stalks of the court were not sitting on the pier. They were like the eighth and ninth-rank sesame officials below, gathering together and whispering.
Just as I was watching it interestingly, I suddenly heard bells and chimes ringing in my ears. Immediately, a very loud voice came from near the imperial throne, "The Lord is here, all the ministers welcome you!"
"I will meet Emperor Yingtian Shenlong and wish the holy peace!" The ministers of the pillars immediately stopped communicating, took the lead in standing on both sides, and led everyone to salute to the imperial throne. (Note: Emperor Yingtian Shenlong was the honorific title that Empress Wei took the lead in 707 to give Li Xian.)
"Sage, you guys are flat!" A loud voice came from near the imperial throne to the side of the imperial throne, but there was a very burly eunuch who responded to everyone on behalf of Emperor Li Xian at the top of his voice.
Immediately afterwards, a white and fifty-year-old fat man slowly walked behind the imperial desk surrounded by several small eunuchs. Several pillar ministers immediately led everyone to bow to the fat man again. The fat man actually sat down without hesitation, but bowed to everyone with a smile.
"Is this going to court?" Seeing the actions of the emperor and ministers, Zhang Qian almost raised his hand and bit his finger. He knocked three times and bowed nine times and bowed nine times. Long live the mountain? He was thinking just now, would he feel very uncomfortable if he kneel down, and no one kneeled to the emperor. The fat emperor didn't seem to care much, and he even returned the court to his ministers "fakely". (Note: Three times and bowed nine times and bowed nine times and bowed nine times and bowed three times and bowed three times and came in a limited number of large-scale court meetings in a year. The author is not sure what it is to pursue the court. He can only make up based on the information at hand. Don't blame experts.)
Just as he was stunned, he had heard the eunuch who presided over the ceremony call for everyone to sit back. Immediately, Zhang Qian found several ministers of the pillars sitting on the "Dunzi" without any hesitation. Other sesame officials, who were like him, knelt on the ground, put their butts on their heels, and straightened their upper bodies.
Although this is called sitting, it is not as comfortable as kneeling. Zhang Qian looked around and found that everyone was "sitting" very quickly, so he quickly bent his knees. However, before he could correct his posture, the Emperor Yingtian Dragon of the Dragon Li Xian, who had already smiled and said, "The two of them, Zhou Biejiang and Zhang Zhubu, who had been trying hard to stop the strange beast for me, have arrived. Let me and other ministers take a closer look at your heroic appearance!"
"The last general is here! The last general Zhou Jianliang, please respectfully invite the Holy An!" Zhou Jianliang was so excited that he even changed his voice, but he jumped up with a quick movement twice as fast as when he was fighting a giraffe before, stepped forward for a few steps, bowed to Li Xian at a distance of about three meters.
"I am the minister Zhang Qian, please respectfully ask the sage!" Someone took the lead, and Zhang Qian's actions became much more natural. He quickly got up and followed him, bowing to the fat white man behind the imperial throne.
"Two wise men are exempt from gifts!" Fatty Emperor Li Xian was not very angry today, but he was in a very good mood. He smiled and waved his hands to Zhou Jianliang and Zhang Qian, and gave instructions.
"Thank you, Master!" Zhou Jianliang took a step back and bowed again. When Zhang Qian saw this, he followed suit.
This way, it was a lot of trouble and saved Zhang Jiuling from worrying about his lord's loss of manners. And what happened next was just as Zhang Jiuling said in a low voice when he encouraged him in advance. Li Xian was very satisfied with the heroic behavior of Zhou Jianliang and him today. He casually asked a few words to lay the groundwork and laid a lot of achievements. He was loyal and brave, and did not fear strong enemies." He promoted Zhou Jianliang to the commander of Guoyi from the fifth rank, and gave this general Ningyuan to the dismissal position. After the business was over, he ordered this person to return to Shuofang and continue to be dispatched by the general Zhang Renyuan.
As for Zhou Jianliang's previous feat of sacrificing his life to block the strange beast, he only mentioned it briefly, as if it had nothing to do with this promotion.
A large group of young officials who were summoned to join the chasing court today. They had expected that Emperor Li Xian would reward Zhou Jianliang and Zhang Qian, who sacrificed their lives to save the emperor, but they did not expect that the reward was so heavy. They actually skipped Zhou Jianliang from the other generals who were down from the seventh grade, and went from the sixth grade to the sixth grade to the fifth grade to the fifth grade. Suddenly, they were envious and couldn't help but regret it secretly. Why wasn't they the one who rushed out at that time? Even if they were half-trapped by the strange beast at that time, they could save twenty years of hard work in the position of a low-level official.
Since even someone like Zhou Jianliang who just struggled to avoid his life and jumped out to compete with the strange beast for a few times and did not achieve any actual results can be promoted to three major levels and several minor levels. Zhang Qian, who had sacrificed his life to attract the strange beast with fruits and candied fruits, wouldn't he even want to go straight to the sky?
So, after everyone secretly said a few words in their hearts, they all raised their ears, waiting to hear the Yingtian Dragon Emperor Li Xian, who was going to give it to the eighth-rank chief clerk Zhang Qian, how glory and wealth? Unexpectedly, the emperor did not act according to common sense. He signaled Zhou Jianliang, who was stupid, to join the list first. Then, he nodded at Zhang Qian and asked slowly: "Zhang Qing, I see that the methods of seducing the strange beast you have been quite skillful. But I know the foundation of this beast? If you know, you might as well tell me and you in detail the origin of this beast, so as to relieve the confusion in my heart and you! "The fourth update is sent, and the fifth update, I will try my best to write it out today. Good night, everyone. Happy.
