A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

"Shang Shuling, let us do these things." Several officials of Zhongshu Province felt sorry for letting one Shangshuling handle the affairs of Zhongshu Province.

Relaxing his limbs, Gu Qing also felt tired, looked up and Fang Xuanling also looked at himself, "Teacher, let's go eat something."

"No need, just eat at home." Fang Xuanling waved his hand and said.

Gu Qing pulled Fang Xuanling, "Just go outside and eat something."

The two masters and apprentices walked on Chang'an Street and came to a relatively quiet tavern. There were no customers in this tavern. A fierce man, and a tough female shopkeeper who would wave a whip from time to time.

Cheng Chumo sat at the entrance of the tavern, scratching his nails and waiting for the guests to come. He saw someone coming from a distance, a guest?Walking in, it was Gu Qing and Fang Xuanling.

"Gu Qing, why are you here?" Cheng Chumo looked at Gu Qing, then politely saluted Fang Xuanling, "Old Fang."

"Come to your place to eat something." Gu Qing said with a smile, "By noon, all the taverns and inns in Chang'an are full of people, and there are not many people like you."

It was an advantage to have fewer customers, Cheng Chumo had an ugly face.

Gu Qing sat down with Fang Xuanling, "Where's that tough lady of yours?"

"I'm pregnant with a child, and I've hired two cooks." Cheng Chumo said, "What do you want to eat?"

"A small pot of wine and two appetizers." Gu Qing said.

"Okay." Cheng Chumo yelled to the kitchen, "Did you hear me?"

The cooks who were taking a nap immediately got busy.

Fang Xuanling took a sip of his drink, "Gu Qing, you don't have to pay too much attention to the affairs of the court."

"Teacher, the students all understand." Gu Qing ate unknown sliced ​​pork with sauce, "Isn't it just a Lingyan Pavilion?"

"His Majesty built Lingyan Pavilion, in fact, he has already lined up the current state princes, a total of 24 people. In fact, you are the person in His Majesty's heart, and he also wants to give you Lingyan Pavilion, but there are too many voices in the court, and you It’s hard to think about what you’ve done now.” Fang Xuanling said slowly, “You don’t care about your own reputation, His Majesty’s painstaking efforts are hard to do.”

Thinking about this matter, Li Er is kind enough to know his hard work, and wants to let himself go to Lingyan Pavilion, but Li Er can't ignore the voice of the court. The 24 princes are all founding heroes. They are all justified, but they are different.

Gu Qing thought to himself, it's time to take Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu out for a walk.

"Teacher, I want to add two people to my Shangshu Province." Gu Qing said.

Fang Xuanling squinted at him, "Is it your own?"

Knowing what the teacher meant, Gu Qing added, "Acquaintances are easy to handle!"

"Okay, the old man still has some contacts in the court, you don't want to handle this matter yourself, you know?" Fang Xuanling asked.

"Student understands." Gu Qing nodded.

"You can have people in the court, but these people can't be your party members, do you know?" Fang Xuanling asked, "In the eyes of many people, you are His Majesty's lucky young courtier, and His Majesty's trust in you has made you Many people in the DPRK and China have ideas."

Gu Qing nodded and patted his thigh, "Student understands, students have to pretend to be grandchildren during this time!"

Pretending to be a grandson... Fang Xuanling's mouth twitched, but it was true.

Three days later, the new Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Yang Shidao, also found Gu Qing, "Master Hou, how are you doing recently?"

"Are you okay?" Gu Qing looked at Master Yang and said, "How about you, how are you doing?"

"I heard about two people recently." Yang Shidao glanced at Gu Qing's expression, "Have you ever heard of these two people, Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu?"

"Those two people." Gu Qing nodded thoughtfully, "These two people have exquisite bones and extraordinary talents. They are unique talents, and they can indeed be reused."

"The bones... the bones are exquisite!" Yang Shidao was stuttering, "Yesterday, someone mentioned these two people to me, and I have also seen that one of them is supervising the Daming Palace, and the other is in Chang'an. By Ling's side, the achievements of these two people are mediocre..."

"Are you in a difficult situation?" Gu Qing looked at him.

"Indeed." Yang Shidao nodded, "If it is said that the promotion of officials can't be promoted casually, one of Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu had an accident during the imperial examination, and the other was so-so in building a Daming Palace. Promotion."

"Can't you turn a blind eye?" Gu Qing said.

"No!" Yang Shidao was very decisive.

Hiss... Gu Qing took a breath and looked at Yang Shidao and asked again, "Really not?"

"cannot!"

"You can go." Gu Qing was not angry but said calmly.

This Houye Yang Shidao really did not dare to offend, many officials in the court have suffered from Gu Qing, a kid.

"Why don't you leave again?"

Yang Shidao said, "Actually, it's not impossible to get promoted to Shangshu Province. It just needs to make some achievements, so that it can be justified. Master Hou understands what I mean."

Chapter 395

"Master Hou, I just sat on the Minister of the Ministry of Officials." Yang Shidao said aggrievedly, "The buttocks are not hot yet."

"How did you find me?" Gu Qing was puzzled again.

"I really want to help Lord Hou, but some things have to be done in the open. A friend of mine said that there are two people, Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu, because my friend is on duty in the Ministry of Education, so I thought about the house. Xianghe and Gu County Marquis, after a few deliberations, heard that Xu Jingzong had taught in Hou Ye's academy a few days ago, so they found Hou Ye." Yang Shidao said, "I know what Hou Ye means. I don’t want the people under my command to be trustworthy, and many newcomers in the court have to change a group of subordinates, everyone knows this very well.”

"However, in the position of Shang Shusheng, even a servant should come down to approve it, which is not an ordinary petty official. Therefore, if Hou Ye wants to install someone under his own hands, he must be able to live in His Majesty's eyes."

"I see." Gu Qing nodded.

"Let me take my leave first." Yang Shidao said.

Back home, Gu Qing thought about the current Tang Dynasty’s actions. Many things in the historical evolution are very vague. The Tang Dynasty has always followed the Sui system and only made some changes on the basis. What he thought of was Wang Anshi. People, if you want to talk about Wang Anshi's reform, the measures in it are also remarkable. Of course, Wang Anshi's reform is correct according to the situation at the time, but it must be implemented according to the specific situation. Judging the situation is always the most important. Some measures were too hasty for the situation at the time, but they would put the cart before the horse.

For example, according to the current situation between the DPRK and China, the Baojia Law must not work, and methods such as soldiers must not be touched.

Gu Qing took two memorials and wrote Fang Tian's average tax law in it, and the signatures of the uniform input method were Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu. After finishing writing, he checked and changed, and then hurriedly left the house.

Sun Simiao was feeding beans to the donkeys at home, watching Gu Qing rushing away, he said leisurely, "Donkey, we are all getting old."

The donkey shook his head and continued to eat the leader.

Watching it eating vigorously, Sun Simiao smiled flatteringly.

"Drive!" Gu Qing rode a horse all the way to Chang'an Chengqian, greeted the guards at the city gate and hurried in.

"Why is Lord Hou in a hurry today?" The guard said suspiciously.

Li Er was looking at a pair of characters in front of him. This is Wang Xizhi's Lanting Preface. It is hard to tell if it is authentic. Wang Xizhi's running script is famous all over the world, and is also known as the best running script in the world.

"Your Majesty, Gu Qing asks to see you." Wang Qin reported in a low voice.

"Let him in." Li Er nodded.
