Everyone was shocked, who was this, so arrogant, calling Chang An by his name without even the word princess after it.
Princess Chang'an was also stunned in the car. She opened the curtain and looked at the handsome young man in front of her. The young man smiled mischievously, reached out and took off his hat, and his green hair sloped down like a waterfall.
Princess Chang An shouted: "Sister Pearl! It's you!"
When An Qingyue saw that the two knew each other and were a woman, she stopped blocking them. The woman ran to him and held Chang An's arm, with tears shining in her eyes.
"I heard from my eldest brother that your health has improved after Mr. Xiao's treatment. I have been thinking about you. I didn't expect that we would see each other again. When I saw you today, you looked much better!"
Princess Chang An also wiped away her tears and waved to Xiao Feng: "Master Xiao, let me introduce to you. This is Prince Degong's cousin, Lord Pearl County!
Sister Pearl used to live in the palace and often took me to play with her. I never expected to meet her here! "
There are clear standards for clan titles in the Ming Dynasty. Specifically speaking, the number of words is relatively long, which may be misleading. Here I will only talk about the clan women to help everyone understand.
The issue of clan title, regardless of male or female, is simply the same question: What is the name of father's father...
Taking the emperor Jiajing as the origin of the coordinate system, his aunt, his father's sister, would usually be named the eldest princess.
Jiajing's sisters will be named eldest princess, and Jiajing's daughters, such as Chang An, will be named princess. This is based on seniority. As long as you don't make mistakes, you can always get a professional title by the end of the year.
Theoretically, when Jiajing follows Xiao Feng to heaven, no matter which of his sons takes the throne, Chang An will automatically be
Upgraded to the eldest princess, this is a passive triggering skill.
The three titles of eldest princess, eldest princess and princess are entirely distinguished by different generations. In terms of closeness and nobility, there is almost no difference.
After all, they are all direct blood relatives of the emperor. Therefore, there is not much difference in treatment. They are both two thousand shi of food a year, and their husbands are also called Prince Consort.
However, the gap in titles below the princesses will widen. Their husbands can no longer be called consorts, but must be called Yibin.
However, there is also a status difference between the guest of honor and the guest of honor. Just like the army staff, they are both called staff officers. Can regiment staff officers and division staff officers be the same?
The prince's daughter is called Princess, and her salary is 800 shi of grain a year. My father’s father’s father’s name was the emperor, just like the princess, but my father was unlucky and didn’t become the emperor, only a prince.
The daughter of the county prince is called the county head, and her salary is 600 shi of grain a year. The father's father is called the prince.
The granddaughter of the county king is called the county king, and her salary is four hundred shi of grain a year. Her father's father is called the county king, which is the title of Pearl.
By analogy, the great-great-granddaughter of the county king is called the county king, and she gets three hundred shi of grain a year; the great-great-granddaughter of the county king is called the township king, and she gets two hundred shi of grain a year.
Below, there is no more. They are all called clan daughters.
This reflects the inequality between men and women in the feudal era. No matter how many generations the men of the old Zhu family were passed down, as long as the Ming Dynasty was still there, at least there was a lieutenant of Fengguo, and they could not get away with two hundred shi of food a year.
But the girls in Lao Zhu's family no longer count after they reach Xiang Jun's generation. Her father's father's name is Lieutenant Fengguo, which is useless.
Princess Pearl is the cousin of Zhu Zaicheng, the current king of Degong in Shandong. Her father’s father is the prince of the county.
She is twenty years old and older than Chang An, so Chang An calls her sister.
Of course, when an ordinary county prince meets a princess, not to mention that the princess doesn't know how to call her sister, he would not dare to agree to it. However, Pearl had lived in the palace when she was a child and had a good relationship with Chang An, so she was worthy of being called a sister.
Besides, in order to stay with Xiao Feng's family, Chang An called everyone her sister, and she didn't even care about it.
Xiao Feng was convinced that the county magistrate Li Tianyao in front of him must be the guest of honor of Lord Pearl County, but the guest of honor was not allowed to participate in politics and serve as an official. This was a strange thing.
Li Tianyao naturally saw what Xiao Feng was thinking, raised his hands and saluted, "Your Excellency, you must be thinking, how can I be the magistrate of Zaozhuang County when I am a guest of honor?"
It's embarrassing to say that the subordinate officials were proud of their talents and refused to give up the imperial examination. In order to fulfill my wish, Pearl wrote to the court and voluntarily gave up her status as a county prince and was demoted to the rank of eldest daughter. "
Xiao Feng was stunned and couldn't help but look differently at the Pearl County Lord who held Chang An's arm and shed tears, and also looked at Li Tianyao in front of him differently, not as a guest of honor but as a son-in-law.
Four hundred shi of grain a year is not a small amount. If nothing else, how much is the annual salary of a county magistrate? Eighty-four stones, less than one-third of the price of soft rice!
Of course, looking at Li Tianyao's temperament, he doesn't look like he was born into a poor family. The father of Lord Pearl County would definitely be reluctant to let his daughter go hungry and would definitely provide some subsidies. However, this courage to abandon his status as a royal relative and the iron rice bowl in pursuit of progress still makes him proud. People admire.
Therefore, Xiao Feng's attitude towards Li Tianyao was much gentler, and he returned the courtesy and said: "I see, it's admirable. It's just that Mr. Li's etiquette joke is a bit too big."
Li Tianyao smiled and said: "Big
Because of the pearl, the lower official knew more about this person and Princess Chang'an than others.
Thinking about it, as a human being, she would never quit the court for the sake of being the consort, so Princess Chang'an would probably follow Pearl's example.
In this way, Xiaguan and your Excellency have become civil relatives, and it is time for family etiquette. "
Xiao Feng smiled helplessly, and Yu Dayou and Zhang Wuxin couldn't help but laugh. The group entered the county town in a harmonious atmosphere, and their mood was completely different from when they entered Qingzhou.
When Princess Chang An heard what Li Tianyao said, she felt even better and looked at Pearl with a smile.
"Sister Pearl, you are so lucky to have found such a reasonable husband, but did the county prince's palace help you choose him?"
Pearl blushed and pinched Chang An quietly: "Why, it's reasonable to say that you and Mr. Xiao can make it work. He was not chosen by the county prince's palace, but I met him during a trip."
Lord Pearl County has liked to dress up as a man and go out for fun since he was a child. A few years ago, he secretly took his maid out for an outing, but met a few dandy boys.
Those dandy boys did not see that Pearl and the maid were women disguised as men, but thought they were pretty and pretty, which made them even more excited and had evil intentions.
The result was just like what was written in the book. Li Tianyao passed by with the book boy and acted righteously, beating away several dandies and getting injured himself.
After hearing the news, people from the county prince's palace arrived and took Li Tianyao back to the county prince's palace for reward and treatment. Only then did Li Tianyao know that Pearl was the county prince.
The two fell in love at first sight. Although Li Tianyao was already a candidate, in order to marry Zhenzhu, he still gave up going to Beijing to take the exam and became a guest of honor.
But he was from a scholarly family and had great ambitions. He couldn't do anything in Yibin Mansion.
Like an eagle with broken wings.
Pearl saw it in her eyes and felt pain in her heart. She finally gritted her teeth and stamped her feet, forcing her father to write a letter to the clan government and voluntarily cancel her status as a county prince so that her husband-in-law could take the imperial examination career.
Li Tianyao was indeed talented, and he passed the Jinshi examination in one fell swoop. With his special status, the officials originally wanted to find a city in Shandong to serve as a deputy, but Li Tianyao voluntarily chose the small, remote and chaotic Zaozhuang County to be the magistrate.
Chang An asked puzzledly: "Why?"
Pearl pursed her lips and smiled and said: "He said that the more chaotic the place, the more ability can be reflected. It is easier to get a top grade in the evaluation and to be promoted quickly. Although the rank of Fucheng Deputy is high, it is difficult to be promoted."
Zaozhuang County is naturally much smaller than Qingzhou Prefecture, but Li Tianyao repeatedly invited Yu Dayou to lead troops to station in the city to facilitate his care. Yu Dayou repeatedly declined, and finally stationed outside the city.
Xiao Feng took a calligraphy test in the morning and knew that Chang'an was not in danger today, so he still brought twenty soldiers, plus Zhang Wuxin and An Qingyue, into the city together.
Li Tianyao prepared a banquet for Xiao Feng and his party. The dishes were rich but not extravagant, and very decent. After three drinks, Xiao Feng told Han San about blocking the road and complaining.
Li Tianyao sighed: "I have been the magistrate of Zaozhuang for three years now. In the beginning, this kind of thing happened every few days.
It seems that in the mine, human life is not like life! Many times when someone dies, the mine is burned directly without reporting it to the county.
Later, I forced all the agents to work as supervisors in the mines, leaving only one agent to take turns on duty in the city, and then I gradually curbed this trend.
For this reason, I am the most difficult to recruit as a police officer in Zaozhuang.
Many people leave the job after only a few days because they find it too hard. However, the hard work paid off. There are now much fewer crimes, and there are no prisoners in the county government cells.
Unexpectedly, there is still such chaos in the mines today. This head catcher has been working in the county government for many years. He has always been experienced in handling things. Shantun is a large mine, so I gave it to him specially. I never expected that something like this would happen. "
Xiao Feng advised him: "This matter is not yet clear. What both of them said is possible. Brother Li does not need to be so angry. Just interrogate carefully."
Li Tianyao frowned, not satisfied with the food, and drank three glasses of wine with Xiao Feng, stood up, and cupped his hands at Xiao Feng.
"Brother Xiao, I'm sorry. This matter is stuck in my throat. Please allow me to deal with it first."
Xiao Feng changed his title to him, obviously to express his closeness. Li Tianyao also changed his title accordingly, but after all, he was not as shameless as Zhang Tianci. He was embarrassed to call himself younger brother, and he did not dare to call himself elder brother, so he could only use it vaguely.
Xiao Feng smiled and said: "Brother Li is really resolute and resolute."
Pearl and Chang An were eating at a table next to them, with a symbolic bead curtain hung up. Accompanied by Ru Hua and An Qingyue, they were laughing and joking happily. Hearing this, Pearl smiled.
"Master Xiao, don't be offended. Li Lang has always been like this. When he first came to Zaozhuang, there were so many cases. He couldn't sleep all day and all night, and he often went to court to hear cases overnight. He has gradually gotten better in the past two years."
Xiao Feng nodded: "Brother Li's style of judging cases, can you let me also watch?"
Li Tianyao nodded repeatedly: "I have heard that Brother Xiao is profound in Taoism and can solve cases like a god. I am lucky to have Brother Xiao's guidance."
Princess Chang'an was eager to go to the hearing.
Grab her.
"When it comes to men, you just have to do whatever you want. As a man, you have to make him feel that you can't do the things he can do. Only then will he feel a sense of accomplishment and like you more."
Ru Hua and An Qingyue blinked, and seemed to smell the faint fragrance of tea. They didn't know whether the women in the old Zhu family had this talent, or whether the two young ladies had nurtured each other since childhood.
In this version of Li Tianyao's promotion to the court, there was only one policeman on duty, and even the slogan for the promotion had to be played by one person in two roles.
First, he stood on the left and shouted "Wei...", then quietly moved his steps to the right, "Wu...", which is quite true to Liu Tong's example.
Li Tianyao was shocked, and everyone in the audience raised their heads. Han San was the accuser, and he cried and told what happened on the road again.
After Han San finished speaking, the supervisor/Captain Zhang also said what he said. As a slash young man, Captor Zhang had a good grasp of his identity as the supervisor at this time and did not get into the emotions of the supervisor. middle.
The only policeman on duty in the hall, who had just returned from his shift recently, felt the same way about the policeman, and stood aside and glared at Han San.
Li Tianyao pondered for a moment: "Han San, what you said is generally consistent with what the supervisor said. The only difference between the two parties is why Boss Han died.
The body has been disposed of on the spot. This matter is illegal and the supervisor should be punished. However, if it is suspected that Boss Han was killed by others, there is insufficient evidence for this matter.
Do you have any other evidence that proves that Boss Han died at the hands of others? Or you can prove that the last two people died at the hands of the supervisor. "
Han San cried bitterly: "Sir, I really have no evidence, and neither do the two brothers behind me.
He died at the hands of the foreman, but he was indeed the one who ordered the crowd to beat him to death! "
The supervisor also kowtowed and said: "Sir, how can a villain know the laws of the court and let people beat and kill people? It's just two people who blocked the road and complained that caused public outrage. In the mining area, public anger is difficult to offend, and villains can't control the situation. "
Li Tianyao pondered for a long time, and suddenly looked at the supervisor with stern eyes: "Captain Zhang, as a captor, you have rich experience in solving cases. Have you really looked carefully at Boss Han's wounds? Are they really caused by coal? "
The supervisor was stunned, and became a little panicked under Li Tianyao's gaze: "Sir, I... I didn't look too carefully at the time, but there was cinders on the back of his head, and the cause of death should be suffocation under the soil. The back of the head was not fatal... …”
Li Tianyao said coldly: "Is there anyone in the mining area who has any grudge against Boss Han?"
The supervisor looked at Han San: "It's not surprising that there are some frictions between the miners, but when Japan and Han San were digging the trails, no other miners came close..."
Li Tianyao said: "No miners have approached, but have any supervisors approached?"
The supervisor was stunned for a moment, and it took him a long time to reply: "I never noticed that, the supervisor can move around at will in the entire mining area..."
Li Tianyao pondered: "What Han San said is that Mrs. Han intends to hang herself. Is this true?"
The supervisor nodded and said: "I have heard about this, but I have already distributed the pension money as usual, and I really can't take care of that much. I think the man died, and I couldn't think about it for a while..."
Li Tianyao said to the detective on duty: "Take Capt. Zhang and Han San together to find Boss Han's wife and ask her
The reason for committing suicide! "
