Chapter 353 Cai Que
Su You said: "At that time, the dragon was poor and there was no meat at home, so I took a piece of hemp thread, a bamboo skin and a small stick and tied it with silk thread into a small 'a' character, and went to dance by the river.
fishing."
"Just after fishing for a while, a little girl came from across the river, wearing embroidered shoes, a blue silk dress, and holding a bamboo bow in her hand."
"When they saw me fishing, the little girl came over to shame me and said, 'If you fish and catch shrimps, your whole family will starve to death.'"
"Then I said angrily that all my family had died a long time ago, and waved her to go away and not delay my fishing."
"The little girl left, and soon she brought me a box of snacks. She said she didn't do it unintentionally, and she gave me the snacks as an apology. She also said she would be obedient and silent, just watch, so that it wouldn't affect my fishing."
"The fish conditions were very good that day. Although the hook is thick and clumsy, it is no problem to catch fish with big mouths and greedy fish like rock crawlers. I caught several fish in a short time. Then you asked how to eat them, and I
I asked you to get some oil..."
Shi Wei smiled and said, "What then?"
Su You said: "After a while you got a small pot of oil, and I took you home happily. Then you got a beating from Hachigong."
"Ah? Why?" Shi Wei couldn't help but ask.
Su You stretched out his hand and clapped his fingers one by one: "It's one thing to secretly go to the river to play, it's another thing to trick a little girl into crossing the river, it's another thing to encourage others to steal things from home, and it's another thing to abduct a little girl and go home."
Shi Wei smiled and said: "Then he must have been beaten badly."
Su You said: "It was okay that time. You cried just after I was beaten twice. Then Hachiko became scared. The more he coaxed you, the more you cried. So he had to let me take action quickly."
"In the evening, I used the oil you gave me, green onions and ginger slices to make a delicious meal of fish soup. After eating, Hachigong sent you back to Shijiabao."
"Weier, do you know? Since I met you, my life has become clearer. Every time you come to me secretly, I will take you to play wildly, because among all the people I met at that time, you were the only one who could
Really laugh."
"Looking at your happy smile, I feel that maybe there is hope for salvation in this world."
"You will know what happened later, but there are more and more people in Longli who can laugh sincerely. Later, there were Tutu Temple, Meishan, Mausoleum, and Erlin Department..."
Wei'er nodded behind Su You, although Su You couldn't see it: "I've known since I was a child that brother Xiaoyou is capable..."
"Weier, but you don't know, if it weren't for you, maybe I would still be that country boy now."
"Actually, I never thought it would be that difficult to cope with life. It would be nice to be able to fish and fish for the rest of my life. When I can be independent, I can buy two acres of land and marry any woman I want for the rest of my life... Ouch!"
But Shi Wei increased her strength.
Su You just enjoyed Shi Wei's massage and rambled on about the past of the two of them when they were young, acting like a parent and a much older brother, telling things that Shi Wei could no longer remember.
.
Shi Wei's technique also had a calming effect. Su You relaxed his mind and fell asleep unconsciously as he talked.
Shi Wei smiled slightly, took the quilt over Su You and covered her up.
She knew Brother Xiaoyou's good intentions.
My childhood sweetheart's fiancé was the top pick in high school, but I hid away from her. In fact, I had some inferiority complex, fearing that he would look down on me and that he would regret the marriage.
According to the traditional philosophy of the scholar-bureaucrat family, virtue, talent, knowledge, and perhaps a bit of self-confidence are not a good match for the Song Dynasty's Tanhualang.
Brother Xiaoyou said this today, actually to let himself know that he always has himself in his heart.
It is easy to find priceless treasures, but it is rare to find a lover.
I really wanted to lean down and kiss him, but I still didn't dare. I tried several times and failed miserably.
Turning her head, Shi Wei couldn't help but feel ashamed when she saw Muke looking at her curiously. She picked it up, extinguished the oil lamp, and left gently.
When Su You woke up the next day, he felt refreshed.
After walking out of the room, the old man who was looking at the yard dropped his broom and came up and continued: "The prefect is so diligent in his work, how can anyone stay in the office the same night he takes office?"
Su You said: "I'm single anyway, so I can sleep anywhere. Has Tongpan come?"
The old man said: "Don't come to the Yamen in time. The prefect wants to eat something. The old army will go find it for the prefect. The emperor doesn't need hungry soldiers."
Su You smiled: "Chen Zhizhou has already set off?"
Old Cangtou said: "After the delivery yesterday, I went to Fengxiang overnight. Liu Jiquan, the new governor of Fengxiang, was the one in his pocket. Lord Xiaoyin evacuated Weizhou City, and Chen Zhizhou happened to go south to live a good life for a few days.
"
After speaking, he added: "Yesterday Chen Zhizhou had a happy chat with the prefect, but actually he was feeling miserable."
Su You asked: "Why?"
Old Cangtou said: "When he was working as a transfer envoy, he secretly accepted bribes and promoted Liu Jiquan to be the governor of Fengxiang. After the incident, he was deprived of his assignment. Now the prefect has come to take over his position as governor. In fact, he was
Demoted. And Liu Jiquan, judging by his posture, he won’t be able to do it for long, just a month or two!”
Su You smiled and said: "You know everything, but do you know what delicious food there is in Weizhou City?"
"It's been an old courtyard for decades, can you still see these things?" Old Cangtou said: "There is something that you can't eat often in Bianjing, but it is available here every day."
Su You patted his belly: "Nothing more to say, beef! Right?"
The old man smiled: "Exactly."
Su You was so beautiful: "Old Jun, you don't know something. I came from Meishan. The mausoleums of Meishan use a lot of cattle, and there is beef to eat every day. But it won't work after I come out. Hurry up and get some."
Come try the special breakfast!”
After a while breakfast came, a super big beef stuffed bun and a bowl of corn porridge.
I threw 70 coins to the old army, which frightened the old army. He handed over his hands and bowed: "This is a little filial piety from a villain. How can you dare to collect money from the prefect after just having breakfast?"
Su You waved his hand and said: "No, if I stay in the Yamen from now on, I will leave it to you to serve me morning and evening. This is not a one-time or two-time thing. It will be difficult for you if I don't pay you."
After finally getting Lao Jun to accept the money, he broke open the bun and handed half of it to him: "I can't eat such a big bun, so I'll give you half."
After taking a sip: "Oh, it's not bad! Is it made with pork brain? The sauce is just a little weak, and some marinade is added to enhance the flavor. It's a clever idea... I said it's so familiar, but it's still Shisanxiang! This thing
Children are not cheap in the northwest, right?"
The old army smiled and said: "Tanhua Lang is the real nobleman. He has served many magistrates and new scholars in this courtyard. Only Tanhua Lang can tell the truth. By the way, why did Tanhua Lang come to Weizhou?"
?This shouldn’t be the case for a top-ranked reading seed..."
Su You ate happily: "Come on, there are crazy top picks in my department, so what does it mean to be the top pick on the sidelines?"
While he was talking, the judge arrived. He was a handsome man with a handsome appearance and outstanding demeanor.
Seeing Su You chatting and laughing with the old army guard, he hurriedly came over to greet him: "Your Majesty, Cai Que, has met the prefect."
This person seemed to be a famous person in history. At least his name was familiar. Su You asked: "Have you eaten it before? If not, let Lao Jun buy you another one. By the way, I seem to have heard of your name."
Isn’t there some anecdote that is widely circulated?”
Cai Que's face turned red: "Xiaguan, there are many things about Xiaguan. I wonder which one the prefect is talking about?"
Su You became even more curious: "What are they?"
Cai Quehe murmured: "This... the lower official is a Jinshi in the fourth year of Jiayou."
Su You cupped his hands and said, "That's my senior in the examination room."
Cai Que quickly returned the gift: "I don't dare to argue with the first-time beauty prospect."
The two were polite and went into the room to talk.
Cai Que then said: "My father, Cai Huangshang, was an official in Chenzhou and joined the army. He was still in office when he was over seventy years old. The former prime minister Chen Zhizhong went to Chenzhou and found that my father could no longer handle government affairs, so he wanted him to resign."
"The family was really poor at the time and had to support the family, so my father was unwilling to resign."
"Xiangong Chen said to my father: 'If you don't ask for resignation yourself, I will definitely ask the court to remove you from your position. You can decide what to do.'"
"My father had no choice but to resign. Our whole family lived in Chenzhou. We lived in poverty and often had too much to eat. It wasn't until I passed the Jinshi examination that the situation at home improved."
"Xia Guan originally served as the manager of Pizhou and joined the army. Because his family was poor, he accepted a few tributes from businessmen that he should not have done, and was reported by his colleagues."
"In fact, the old transfer envoy was more powerful than the lower official. The new transfer envoy Xue Gong inspected Shaanxi, saw the documents, and wanted to punish the lower official."
"It was also my good luck. After I was announced to the court, Duke Xue changed his mind and called me for a talk. After some exchanges, he didn't know what was right for him, so he transferred his subordinate to the prefect to be dispatched by the prefect.
