Hong Xun Lian''s noble reputation is limited to the clear boundary between power and money, but if he really doesn''t have some means to improve himself, how can he climb to the position of a high-ranking official?
It''s the so-called one general''s success and ten thousand bones wither.
The war of words between civil servants is cruel and bloody.
Even more!
"Lord Gu came a little later than I expected."
Just as the carriage stopped, Hong Lianlian''s figure appeared at the door of the carriage.
"I''ve kept Lord Hong waiting for a long time. I''m not thoughtful."
Gu Changan doesn''t know whether the other party has been waiting at the door for so long, but he can''t lose anything by apologizing first.
"It doesn''t matter. I usually wait outside Xuanwu Gate for so long in the morning. Now it''s not a big problem to wait at my own door for a while."
Hong read Lian''s polite way, and then asked the attendant to take the gift from the groom.
"Go in and sit down first. My wife has already cooked tea. That''s the new tea given by the emperor. Lord Jin has come to my house three times to ask for it, but he hasn''t given it."
"Then Gu will have a big meal today."
Gu Changan showed a posture of rubbing hands.
"What a feast? If you dare to drink three bowls like the one surnamed Jin, I''ll show you that civil servants are not completely unarmed."
Hong YUELIAN smiled and instructed Gu Chang''an.
They joked and walked side by side into Hong''s house.
The foundation occupied by Hong''s residence is not big, at least it is not comparable to the official position of Lord Hong today.
Only a few servants could be seen in the mansion, but the flowers and plants in the courtyard were well cared for, properly trimmed and growing well.
"I''ve seen Mrs. Hong, younger generation Gu Changan, I''ve seen Mrs. Hong."
When meeting Mrs. Hong Lianhong, Gu Changan did not pretend to be an official, but a younger generation.
Mrs. Hong''s dress was also simple, and her face was only slightly powdered, but she was also somewhat beautiful.
Well dressed, clean and dignified.
Standing with Hong Xun Lian, it''s really a pair of talented women.
"Go down and have a rest first. Lord Gu and I still have some court affairs to discuss."
Hong YUELIAN said, calling his wife out first.
Mrs. Hong was also a silent person. She smiled and nodded, saluted Gu Changan and went out.
Hong YUELIAN watched his wife go out of the door all the way. Then he took back his eyes and put them on Gu Chang''an again.
"This visit is only a private friendship. Why should Lord Hong send his wife away?"
Gu Changan picked up the half full teacup and took a sip.
"Her body and bones have always been bad, and she has been exposed to wind and cold during this period. If she is allowed to come out to entertain guests and accompany others, I''m afraid it will be better in a few days."
Hong YUELIAN said and took a sip of tea.
"I can see that the relationship between lord Hong and his wife is also excellent."
"Wife of chaff. She has been following me since I studied hard in the cold window and has experienced a lot."
"When I was a poor scholar, he was at least the eldest lady of a rich family. Later, he fell in love with me after reading some obscene words and tunes I wrote."
"In fact, it is not love, but the joy at that time makes people feel like a lifetime."
"She is also stubborn. I haven''t abandoned sun Shan for five consecutive years. In the sixth year, I finally won the list. Then I made great progress all the way and became the youngest red robe in the capital in the name of my ancestor."
"You may have heard of some accidents later. In short, now it has fallen to the third grade. The salary is barely enough, but most of it has been sent to her mother''s house."
After Hong read Lian''s speech, he was a little sad.
I think they were drinking porridge around a stove in a broken thatched house.
She didn''t go to the warm room behind her. She had to accompany a poor scholar who was not optimistic about anyone. She had to bet that the scholar who had fallen out of the sun''s mountain for five years had a bright future.
Hong Lianlian often thinks she is stupid.
The book says that fools are blessed.
So Hong Lianlian can''t let her lose.
So on the day of the inscription of the golden list, the county magistrate came to meet her in person. Hong Xuanlian took her around the village three times.
The girl''s tears never stopped.
Now he has moved to the capital. No matter how bad he is, he is also a third-class official. It''s put in the backcountry of my hometown. It''s better to say something bad than the words of the emperor Lao Tzu.
Gu Changan nodded. This love is really more beautiful than the storyteller beside the overpass.
"After two cups of tea, you need to promise me two conditions."
Hong YUELIAN suddenly said.
Gu Changan''s hand holding the tea cup stopped in the air and said with a bitter smile, "the price of these two cups of tea is too high."
"Hong Xun Lian has always been outspoken, so you don''t intend to beat around the bush with you this time."
Hong Lianzheng said.
Gu Changan saw that he was serious and didn''t smile. He put down the tea cup and sat upright, facing the man opposite.
"I don''t know why you came to the capital this time, but if you can come, it shows that Ren Changsheng has regarded you as his confidant."
"The hanging mirror division of Qingyang Prefecture seems to be the same as that of other state capitals, but its interior is as solid as gold soup. It is said to be the hanging mirror division of the imperial court. In fact, it is more appropriate to say that it is the hanging mirror division of his long life."
Gu Changan heard this and did not refute it. They just quietly released their awareness and shrouded the whole residence to ensure that no third person knew what they were talking about.
Although he only entered the hanging mirror department for a short time of one year, he also felt the influence of Zhenfu envoy on the hanging mirror Department of Qingyang Prefecture.
If you are just a senior official, it is impossible for the people at the bottom to treat you with that attitude.
And on the way to the capital, Shen mourned with Gu Changan.
The hanging mirror Department of Qingyang Prefecture is definitely not only those forces on the surface, but also the energy hidden behind it is absolutely one of the best in the whole Dayan Dynasty.
This is why after many years, although the national master still regarded Ren Changsheng as a trouble in his heart, he still refused to do it. He only dared to do some small tricks after Gu Changan came to the capital.
This is not just because of the name of white clothes in the capital.
Although one person''s strength can bravely break into the capital, it will never let the national teacher above 10000 people be so afraid. What the latter is really afraid of is the strength of Ren Changsheng''s men.
Shadow department. This is also part of Gu Changan''s recent exposure to the dark forces of the hanging mirror department in Qingyang Prefecture. Even this time, he went to the Jianghu to frighten the curfews and let the Jianghu know that there are temples in the world.
But in fact, it is unknown whether to win over potential forces.
"The chips I used to exchange for your two conditions are not only those two cups of tea, but also Hong Lianlian."
"Is that enough?"
