The rise of the poor

Chapter 906
When Zhu Pingan walked into the pergola, other officials of Prince Yu's Mansion also came to the banquet one after another.

Since Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty to expel the Mongolian Yuan and resumed the meal-sharing system, the meal-sharing system has been adopted in general official official occasions, and this time the reception banquet is no exception, and the meal-sharing system is also adopted.

The meal-sharing system is more particular than the meal-sharing system, and there are more rules, and it is easy to distinguish between primary and secondary, and status levels.

In the pergola, the main seat of King Yu is set on a wooden platform six points above the ground. Under the platform, from north to south, the seats of the officials of King Yu’s mansion are arranged in order according to their official positions and seniority. Each official has a separate table and chair. .

The length and width of the table are the same as those in the Han and Tang Dynasties, about two feet wide and three feet long, but the height is different from that in the Han and Tang Dynasties. The table at this time is much higher than that in the Han and Tang Dynasties. There are chairs so you can sit down.

King Yu's main table was three points longer and three points wider than the tables under the stage, which was the rule of Ming Dynasty banquets.

"Master Zhu, this way please."

The location of the reception banquet was determined in advance, and Liu Guanshi led Zhu Pingan to the second seat in the west.

"Thank you."

After Zhu Pingan sat down, he cupped his hands and thanked him.

"My lord, please be polite. My lord, please sit down for a while and have some tea. The banquet will begin soon." Steward Liu led Zhu Pingan to his seat and ordered the maid to pour him a cup of tea.

"Thank you." Zhu Pingan nodded in thanks.

Not long after Zhu Pingan sat down, the other officials of Prince Yu's Mansion also arrived in place one after another, and they were all led to sit down.

Soon, on the east side opposite Zhu Ping'an, also in the second position, an official also took his seat.

They are also the first and second, sitting face to face with Zhu Pingan, with a distance of more than two meters between them.

The person seated was a middle-aged official in his thirties, who looked much younger than Gao Gong, with a hearty and heroic face, a very tall figure, about 1.8 meters in height, with a tiger's back and a monkey's waist, wearing an official robe Showing a bit of unruly and suave feeling, the cuffs are rolled up, showing a part of the arm, the black hair on the arm is quite strong, holding a folding fan, while twirling his beard and chatting heartily with others, while fanning the wind.

After the honest and heroic official took his seat, he realized that Zhu Pingan, a young and unfamiliar face sitting opposite him, was sitting so far in front of him. Nodding his head to Zhu Pingan Yaoyao, he said hello.

Zhu Pingan smiled and bowed his hands in return.

After the hearty and heroic official nodded and greeted Zhu Pingan, he was stopped by the officials behind and started chatting.

Looking at the hearty and heroic official opposite, Zhu Ping'an was a little curious. Who is this person? There were no cameras in ancient times, and the paintings were seriously distorted. Just by looking at the appearance, Zhu Ping'an couldn't match this official with a figure in history. .

Not long after the hearty and heroic official on the opposite side took his seat, someone at the top of Zhu Ping's row was also seated.

This is an official in his forties. He looks about the same grade as Gao Gong. He is thin and dignified. His appearance is not inferior to that of Zhang Juzheng, but he is a little older. He has a goatee and looks very bookish. , like a walking bookshelf, yes, it gives people a feeling of being both talented and elegant, and full of knowledge.

Sitting on the head of oneself, it is natural that the official position is not inferior to oneself, and the seniority is older than that of an official.

In Prince Yu's Mansion, there are only a handful of such officials, except for Gao Gong, they are Chen Yiqin, or Yin Shidan and others.

"I, Zhu Ping'an, have met this lord before, but I don't know how to call him."

After the official took his seat, Zhu Pingan took the initiative to stand up and greet the official above.

"Oh, you are the new Mr. Zhu Ping'an." The head official looked at Zhu Ping'an up and down with his eyes, nodded noncommittally, raised his hands and arched his seat, and said lightly, "This Officer Chen Yiqin."

Chen Yiqin.

It turns out that you are Chen Yiqin, Zhu Pingan nodded, and formally saluted Chen Yiqin again, "I have met Mr. Chen."

"Lord Zhu, you're being polite." Chen Yiqin cupped his hands and replied calmly.

Zhu Pingan didn't care about Chen Yiqin's slightly indifferent attitude.

Zhu Pingan knew that Chen Yiqin was a courtier who wholeheartedly supported King Yu, was loyal to King Yu, and thought of King Yu in everything.

I am young and have just entered the officialdom. Except for the slight fame of Qingci, I have not made many actions worthy of everyone's recognition.

green word? !
For the Holy Majesty who has the need for fasting and offering sacrifices, Qingci is useful, but for His Royal Highness King Yu, what role does Qingci have.

Moreover, because of a pair of chopsticks, the story of being ordered by the Holy Master to serve as a lecturer for Yu Wang's mansion has also been spread by this time.

Everyone dared not criticize Jiajing, but when it came to criticizing Zhu Ping'an, there was no pressure.

The imperial meal doesn't have chopsticks, so you eat meat with your hands. Because of this, you were promoted to be a lecturer in the prince's mansion? !

How absurd and ridiculous this is.

A person who grabs meat with his hands can be a lecturer for the prince? !

I believe Chen Yiqin has also heard similar criticisms.

It is an important position in King Yu's mansion to serve as a lecturer in the Yuwang's mansion. It is one of the four most important ministers of Yuwang. It is related to whether Yuwang can get to that position.

Not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like teammates.

The same truth has always been the same. Although there is no such famous saying in ancient times, the truth is interlinked.

Chen Yiqin probably doubted whether he could take on this important task.

In fact, it would be the same for me.

Therefore, Zhu Pingan didn't care at all about Chen Yiqin's indifference.

As long as he shows that he is capable of holding this position, Chen Yiqin's attitude will definitely change.

It is Chen Yiqin's lifelong wish to unite all the forces that can be united, to abandon his grievances, to use his strength in one place, and to help King Yu become a great treasure.

In fact, what Zhu Pingan didn't know was that there was another reason for Chen Yiqin's indifferent attitude towards Zhu Pingan.

At the beginning, the rumors in the wind direction were that Zhu Ping'an would be promoted to be a lecturer in Prince Jing's Mansion.

When Chen Yiqin heard this rumor, he assigned Zhu Ping'an to King Jing's camp.

After the imperial decree came down, Zhu Ping'an suddenly became a lecturer in Yu Wang's mansion, which made Chen Yiqin wonder if Zhu Ping'an was in Cao Ying and his heart was in Han, and even suspected that Zhu Ping'an was deliberately infiltrated into Yu Wang's mansion by King Jing Come the pawns.

After Chen Yiqin took his seat, Gao Gong also came slowly, and to Zhu Ping's surprise, Zhang Juzheng also came along.

Zhang Juzheng is not yet an official of Prince Yu's Mansion.

Moreover, what surprised Zhu Pingan even more was that Zhang Juzheng's popularity in Prince Yu's Mansion was still quite high, even better than Gao Gong's popularity. Many officials greeted Zhang Juzheng, and even Chen Yiqin nodded to Zhang Juzheng.
