spring event night

It rained a lot last night, and I was caught off guard by the cold spring.Jiang Shan woke up in Duan Xian's arms, and when he sat up, he felt extremely cold.

Feng Xing raised the soft curtain slightly, and the maids and eunuchs waiting outside filed in, holding hot water cloth towels and other things.

Duan Xian washed there, Jiang Shan put on some clothes and went to the window to look at the pots of orchids.

Unsurprisingly, those pots of orchids all withered and died because of the sudden cold spring.

Duan Xian came over to look at it while wiping his hands, and asked, "Are they all dead?"

"That's not true." Jiang Shan couldn't help feeling regretful in his tone.

"Tsk," Duan Xian said, "I think it's careless."

As soon as his words fell, two eunuchs knelt down tremblingly and begged for mercy. They were the ones in charge of these pots of orchids.

Duanxian didn't seem to see these two people, he just leaned over to look at the dead orchid.Jiang Shan looked at Duanxian, then at the two young eunuchs, and said, "Everyone who is noisy in the early morning, whatever they look like, go down."

Feng Xing winked at the two young eunuchs, and the two young eunuchs hurriedly withdrew.

Duan Xian snorted and said nothing else.

Jiang Shan sat on the kang and asked for water to wash.A little eunuch was holding a basin, two little eunuchs rolled up Jiang Shan's sleeves, one on the left and one on the right, and several others waited on Jiang Shan to clean his face.

When the time was almost up, Fengxing asked someone to pass on the meal.

In the early years, Guanglu Temple and Taichang Temple were responsible for the meals in the palace.But Jiang Shan was not used to this kind of meal. On weekdays, only the eunuchs were in charge of the dining room and the palace maids were in charge of the catering room instead.

Two eunuchs carried a food box, and the meals from several food boxes were placed on the table one by one.

In the past 20 years, the expenses in the palace were very luxurious. When the first emperor was there, one or two hundred dishes were enough for a breakfast.After Duan Xian ascended the throne, some unnecessary ones were omitted.On weekdays, he and Jiang Shan are the only two eating, and there are too many arrangements, which makes them seem restrained.

When Duan Xian dined with Jiang Shan, he didn't serve dishes.He remembered that Jiang Shan's stomach was not good, so he served him a bowl of Ba Bao Zan soup first, and then accompanied him to eat slowly.

After the meal, the imperial physician came to ask for pulse.

In the past two years, Jiang Shan has lost some weight, and the palace is well-clothed and well-fed, but they can't keep him fat.Duan Xian suspected that he had hurt his foundation in the past, and asked Murong Xi to come and see him.Murong Xi only said that it's okay, people, who hasn't suffered from three disasters and six diseases, just take care of it carefully.

Later, Duanxian replaced an old imperial doctor in the palace who was good at recuperation. The old imperial doctor gave several medicinal recipes, but now he is only recuperating slowly.

It was cold outside, Jiang Shan ordered someone to find out the cloak that had been put away, wrap it around Duan Xian, and send him out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The morning court is not every day, but Duanxian will meet the ministers in the Hall of Martial Arts from time to time.

After the offering, Jiang Shan changed his clothes and sat on the couch.Fengxing brought tea, Jiang Shan put down the letter in his hand, and said with a smile: "You don't follow your master, what's the fun in front of me."

Feng Xing said with a smile: "Your Majesty is afraid that the other servants will not be dedicated, so he specially ordered the servants to accompany him around."

Jiang Shan snorted and said, "Didn't I tell you to look at me, speaking is better than singing."

Jiang Shan took a sip of tea and said, "Prepare the car, I'm going out of the palace."

Feng Xing apologized and said with a smile: "Why did the factory owner leave the palace, could it be that the slaves did not serve him well?"

Jiang Shandao: "Where is it, it is difficult to find a second one as appropriate as you."

"Since that's the case, why should Mr. Zhang rush out of the palace." Feng Xing said with a smile: "Your Majesty hasn't been as happy as today for a long time."

"Nonsense again, I've only been outside the palace for a few days, and you're telling me it's been a while since I've been in the palace."

Feng Xing leaned forward, "The factory owner said so."

Jiang Shan smiled and said: "I don't make things difficult for you, I rushed out and finished my work, and I will be back before evening. When you see His Majesty later, if you have something to report, His Majesty will not make things difficult for you if you think about it."

Feng Xing said with a smile: "Thank you for your understanding."

Jiang Shan scolded him with a smile and told him to go.

When Jiang Shan returned to the mansion, there were many people waiting for the court, Jiang Shan went to the study and assigned the affairs one by one.He didn't think of the orchids in the yard until he was done.

In the small garden, many orchids in the garden also withered. Jiang Shan felt distressed and ordered Futai to take good care of the remaining orchids.

Fukang came over with hot tea and said, "Master, if the orchid dies, it will die, and it will never be saved. If you catch the wind and cold again, the apprentice's head will not be saved."

Jiang Shan stood up, took the cloth towel and wiped his hands, and took another sip of tea.

"This tea doesn't taste the same as before, could it be a new one?"

"The new tea from Jianzhou that the subordinates came here for filial piety, I tasted is not as good as the imperial gift, I just asked Master to change it occasionally."

Jiang Shan put down the teacup and said: "It's better to change it back, let His Majesty know, he will be unhappy."

"Yes."

Jiang Shan took the robe from Futai and asked, "Who honors you?"

Fukang laughed twice, and said: "It's a fellow from my apprentice's hometown. He was just selected as a Jinshi this year. He was born in a wealthy family, and the elders in the family are willing to give. Sensible, I participated in a poetry meeting with a student of King Yan, so..."

Jiang Shan glanced at Fukang, "Okay, someone came to intercede with you, have you accepted them?"

"How can it be? You still have to listen to Master." Fukang said: "But I can assure you. This family is not a bad person. I have checked carefully."

Jiang Shan does not object to Fukang Futai's development of their own powerful contacts, and they are slowly trying to learn what they should know in their position.

"You just have to talk to the people in Jinyiwei about this matter."

"Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone from the front came to report, he was the chief assistant, and he had already drawn up the list and sent it to Jiang Shan.His movements were so fast, Jiang Shan couldn't help but suspect the purpose behind it.

Over there, Fukang continued: "There is one more thing. The man with two children who stopped the sedan chair that day is still at the house. I don't know what Master plans to do with it."

Jiang Shan almost forgot about them, he asked Fukang: "What is the origin of that man?"

"He was an official who was promoted to Beijing the year before last. His parents passed away early, and there were only two girls under his knees. His wife also died when the youngest daughter was born. Now only he and the two girls are left in the family."

"How did you get involved?"

"It's also his bad luck. When he came to Beijing, the officials who received him happened to be from the lineage of King Yan. Later, he was falsely accused by officials of the same department. That's why he got involved in this matter."

"Check to see if his name is on the list. If there is nothing wrong, give him some trouble and let him go."

"Yes."

Lu Shang came over at dusk, and he came to give Jiang Shan the list he had drawn up. Like the list of the chief assistant, it was also a long speech.

Jiang Shan couldn't help sighing, "There are so many people sitting together?"

"That's right," Lu Shang picked up the tea, "Since the previous generation, Lian Zuo has been aroused. Whenever there is a major incident, many innocent people will be involved."

"Did all these people commit crimes?"

"Most of them were falsely accused by their colleagues. Anyone who got a little bit involved would be involved. If an official brings a family, the number of people will naturally be too many."

Jiang Shan sighed deeply, and wrote a copy of the list of chief assistants to Lu Shang.

"It's getting late, I still have to enter the palace, so I won't keep you." Jiang Shan got up.

Lu Shang nodded, he glanced at Jiang Shan and said: "It is reasonable to say that His Majesty will not see the irrationality of the Lianzao system, but I still can't figure out why for a while."

Jiang Shan waved his hand and said, "What's the matter, I'll just go back and ask him."

Lu Shang choked, and said, "Yes."

The two separated, Lu Shang returned to Beizhen Fusi, and Jiang Shan entered the palace.

When we arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, His Majesty had already returned. He was standing by the window playing with the two pots of dead orchids, and said, "No wonder they can't survive. You've already left them behind. Who cares about them?"

Jiang Shan walked up to him, "I haven't entered the palace for only a few days, why have you been making fun of me until now? I didn't leave the palace to play, but to do things for you. Do you want to blame me instead?"

"You also said that you are doing things for me," Duan Xian looked at Jiang Shan with a smile on his face, "Why do you only see things but not me?"

Jiang Shan was a little ashamed and flustered by his look, and quickly moved his eyes away.

Duanxian laughed, and he laughed happily. He came over and sat down with Jiang Shan, and chatted with him.

He likes to see Jiang Shan's embarrassed look, as if they were in Chengwang's mansion before, the two of them are so close.

Duan Xian asked someone to pass on the dinner, Jiang Shan said: "Don't be busy, I have something to ask you."

Duan Xian said: "You ask."

"I see that there are so many people on the pardon list, what are you going to do with these people?" Jiang Shan said, "Most of them are scholars. Use the strength of the whole family. Although they were pardoned, they were charged with crimes, and I am afraid that they will not be able to enter the court in the future. It is a pity for such scholars."

"Who said they can't enter the court?" Duan Xian twisted a strand of Jiang Shan's hair and twisted it around his fingers, "it's just a matter of grace."

Jiang Shan was puzzled, and offered to explain to him, "I plan to ask these people to take the imperial examination again, and those who pass the exam will still be officials."

Jiang Shan understood a little bit, he lowered his head, and thought again, "After all, these people have passed the exam, and their methods are very clear. This is not fair to other candidates."

"So," Duan Xian said casually, "the imperial examination has to be changed."

Jiang Shan suddenly realized that the purpose of Duanxian's actions was the imperial examination, and the stereotyped selection of scholars is too rigid, and it is not a long-term way.

After figuring this out, Jiang Shan let go of one thing in his heart, he smiled and said: "You agree with them to enter the court as officials, how do you know if there are any of them like you back then?"

Duan Xian didn't care much, "If you have the ability, just come and grab it. I have nothing to say about the winner or the loser."

The author has something to say: Officially entered the court chapter. Regarding Li, what I want to say is that if Wang Rong is not dead, she is not at fault.In the section on Butler Sun, Yun Xian said that if you think that the crime is not worthy of death, it is you who think it depends on what the victim thinks.And don't mention anything about being a wife and concubine to me. According to feudal etiquette, it would be a serious crime for Li to show up in public without getting married, and to disrespect his parents-in-law.

In the end, how I want to write is my business. If this article makes you feel a little uncomfortable, please don't force yourself.
