However, his heart has been so clear, but he doesn't want to, those Jingchu old officials are still silent! !

OK!

Really good! !

The Supreme Emperor forcibly suppressed his anger, his face sank like water, and he said lightly: "It seems that I have been too lenient these years."

After finishing speaking, he got up again and walked to the imperial case. After writing two words with a pen, he said to Wei Wu: "Go, give it to Jia Qiang, and tell him that I heard that he hasn't written the name yet. This is what I gave him." Let him not learn from the generation who has no king and no father, but stick to his heart!"

Wei Wu, who was terrified by Cai Cai's words just now, stepped forward, picked up the edict, and when he saw the two words on it, he took a tight breath, and his pupils shrank like needles!

Chapter 90 Half Monkey

Outside Shenjing City, on Qingshiba Wharf.

The Yan Dynasty relied far more heavily on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal than any previous dynasties.

The northern land is bitterly cold, and the real estate is not abundant, but there are millions of people raised in one city.

If there is no supply from Jiangnan, it will never last.

The products in the south of the Yangtze River are mostly transported to Dadu by water.

As the end of the canal, there are thousands of sails and crowds on Tongzhou Qingshiba Wharf.

Grains, vegetables, fruits, poultry, weaving, wood, porcelain, and lacquerware from the south of the Yangtze River were continuously transported from the canal to the wharf, and then transferred to the capital through the wharf.

Day and night, it is very lively.

In order to prevent merchant ships, civilian ships and tank ships from vying for the river wharf, a yellow pavilion was erected [-] meters south of Qingshiba wharf as the dividing line between water transport and passenger and cargo ships.There is a stele in the pavilion, and the inscription clearly stipulates that all passenger and cargo ships can only dock at the south of Huangtingzi for loading and unloading, and must not cross Huangtingzi to go north.

To the south of Huangtingzi, the west is the cargo terminal, and the east is the passenger terminal.

On the passenger terminal, there are many carriages, horses, mules and sedan chairs.

In this era, most of the people who were able to travel to and from the capital were officials and family members with some footsteps, merchants in the second place, and scholars who came to Beijing to rush for the exam.

Ordinary people are rare.

At this time, an ordinary two-story passenger ship was docked at the pier. On the deck, an unremarkable old man in civilian clothes stood with his hands behind his hands. On his vicissitudes of life, some cloudy eyes looked greedily at the prosperity on the pier.

Behind the old man, there was only an old servant and a sturdy middle-aged man, carrying a heavy old wooden box. Judging from the damaged edges, it should be filled with books.

"My lord, let's go to the city. It's almost noon, and my lord has to go to the palace to see you."

After the master and servant got off the boat, the old servant saw that the old man still couldn't see enough, so he had to step forward and remind him in a low voice.

Hearing this, the old man retracted his gaze with a sigh, and said in a deep but powerful voice, "It's been 28 years since I left Beijing. 28 years ago, this place was still desolate."

The old servant said with a smile: "It's good fortune to say that the master has been an official outside these years, and every time you see him, you can always meet the holy driver on a tour, and then you will see him while you are there, saving you from traveling thousands of miles. Bitter. This year is another year for your majesty to see, but the master was transferred to Beijing to be a Beijing official, which is also a coincidence."

Every five years in Dayan, governors, governors, and political envoys from other provinces who are above the second rank need to come to Beijing to see and report on their duties.Based on the traffic at this time, the journey can take as little as ten days and a half months, or as long as several months, and there are few young and strong officials who reach high positions, so the hardship of traveling is unbearable.

The old man shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, seeing the Son of Heaven, is there any suffering to speak of? Compared with the common people in the world, what qualifications do we have to speak of suffering?"

Thinking of the corruption and extravagance that permeated the officialdom, the old man's face darkened again.

The old servant persuaded: "Master, go back to the post house to have a rest first, otherwise your waist will hurt again in a while."

Hearing this, the old man sighed, shook his head, and was about to set off when he heard a commotion from the crowd not far away. He looked sideways and frowned...

In the crowd, Jia Qiang also frowned. Looking at Jia Lian, who was arrogant and rude, she said in a deep voice, "Why don't you let me wait for the boat? If the old lady didn't speak up in person, you would think I would." Get on Jia's boat and go south with you?"

Jia Lian is not a bad person who helps relatives but does not help. He just doesn't like Jia Qiang. He used to look down on Jia Qiang, and later he became more tired of him, so he said impatiently: "Now that your waist is hard, naturally you don't want to come to our Jia's house. It’s up to you whether you like it or not, I didn’t say I won’t let you board the boat. It’s just that you put a half-dead man on board, what’s the matter?”

Jia Qiang's tone was filled with anger, and she said in a deep voice, "Do you have a problem with your brain or your ears? I have made it very clear when I was in Rongqing Hall. This time I went out of Beijing to send the leader of the Jinsha Gang to Jinmen to have a look. Sick, if he is fine, I still need to go out of Beijing? I need to repeat what the old lady said? If you explained last night that you are not allowed to board the boat, the boat we found by ourselves will not return. I will take this boat. Since you didn't say it last night, what's the point of stopping it now?"

What Jia Lian despises the most now is that Jia Qiang, as a junior, dares to talk back to her elders, it is simply outrageous!

Even though he himself was a victim of the authority of the patriarchs and was often beaten and trampled by Jia She, he still believed that filial piety was greater than the sky. This was the teaching he had received since he was three or four years old, and it was deeply rooted.

Therefore, Jia Qiang's heresy was really hard for him to accept.

Hearing what Jia Qiang said, Jia Lian was furious, and said sharply, "Who are you talking to? I have opened my eyes too. There are still nephews talking to uncles like this in the world?"

Hearing the uproar from the spectators around, Jia Qiang said coldly: "I'll reason with you, and you'll talk about seniority with me. If your seniority is higher, you can be unreasonable? In essence, you are just an outstanding The clan uncle of Wufu can rely on his seniority to bully me?"

"Oh……"

The surrounding melon-eaters were stunned when they heard the words, scolding a biological uncle for having a problem with his brain, and scolding a family uncle who has passed the fifth server for having a problem with his brain are completely two different things.

The so-called out of the five clothes is the kind that doesn't even need to wear mourning clothes when you die, let alone scolding, and it doesn't matter if you get beaten.

Jia Lian laughed angrily, how can Rongguo and Ningguo's lineage be discussed simply by five clothes?

However, he was too lazy to argue with Jia Qiang on the pier, so he just said, "I don't want to say anything to you, a disobedient son. If you want to get on the boat, you can get on the boat, and if you don't want to get on the boat, you can pull it down. How about the boat of my Rongguo Mansion?" Is it that Lao Shizi, Jinsha Gang, and Yinsha Gang, a group of scumbags, can go up?"

As soon as this remark came out, Li Jing's face turned pale, and the four members of the Sands Gang who were carrying her father behind her were also furious.

Jia Qiang said in a cold voice, "Jia Lian, the Supreme Emperor and the Son of Heaven just praised me for my pure filial piety. You, a bastard who eats, drinks, prostitutes and gambles, dares to slander my virtue in public. I, Jia Qiang, are insignificant, but I don't know that you will marry the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor. Where is the Holy One placed?"

Hearing this, Jia Lian's face turned pale, trembling with anger, glaring at Jia Qiang and said, "You...you are so vicious, you want to kill me? Besides, the emperor sent a decree to the Jia family to praise the Jia family for their good teaching. What does it have to do with you, a little bastard? Even the Supreme Emperor, even the Supreme Emperor, also because you are a sycophant, shameless, and said those things that are not on the stage, I praised you, and you took it as a Shangfang sword ?Pooh!"

Because there are many officials and family members on the passenger terminal.

After recognizing the pair of uncles and nephews of the Jia family, someone has already analyzed the "allusions" in the words.

On that day, Jia Qiang praised the Taishang Emperor's achievements comparable to Gaozu and Shizu in Zuixianlou, and the words that extravagant spending is also meritorious. For a while, the onlookers on the pier looked at Jia Qiang with contempt and contempt.

The old man who just got off the boat looked at Jia Qiang even more sharply after hearing the rumors.

However, at this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the direction of the official road leading to the capital. When everyone looked there, they saw a palace eunuch dressed in red and sitting in a boa robe riding a horse under the guard of a dozen royal guards. Come.

The crowd parted, and the palace servants reined in their horses until Jia Qiang was in front of them. After dismounting from their horses, they said bluntly to Jia Qiang: "The Supreme Emperor has an order, and Jia Qiang accepts the order."

Jia Qiang paused for a moment, lifted up her skirt and put it forward to salute, and then heard the palace man shout: "Today there is a class of Ning Guo Gong Jia who plays the role of great-great-grandson Jia Qiang, who inherits the loyalty of his ancestors, is not afraid of people's words, is extremely intelligent, and is commendable for his loyalty and filial piety." , I love him very much. I know that your parents died young, and you have no father to protect and no mother to rely on. However, all the people in the world are my flesh and blood. I heard that you still have no words, so I give you two words. Hope You have lived up to my expectations."

After finishing speaking, he handed over the imperial edict in his hand to Jia Qiang.

After Jia Qiang took over, she heard the eunuch laughing in a shrill voice: "Young Lord, the Supreme Emperor personally wrote the letter for you. This kindness is rare in ancient times."

Someone around couldn't bear it and asked, "My husband, I wonder what name the Supreme Emperor gave Xiao Langjun?"

The eunuch was obviously satisfied with the man's question, and after a sharp smile, he uttered two words:

"Good minister!"
