There have been rumors for a long time that the current emperor's diligence, frugality and virtue have been set an example for the people in the world. Even the palace walls have not been repaired since he ascended the throne.
Now it seems that it is indeed true. Lao Li is still quite practical in this regard.
Mingde Gate, the imperial city's face, can be seen showing traces of disrepair, so other places may be even more lacking in repairs.
No wonder Lao Li thinks about how to make money all day long. It is indeed a bit stressful for an emperor to treat him like this.
Tsk tsk~
Lao Li, Lao Li, my sister is a queen, what kind of life do I live with you~
In this way, while Tang Sufan was cursing in his heart, he looked around as if visiting a landscape garden, and went straight in as if he was looking for something new.
At this time, near dusk, countless officials had also entered Mingde Gate.
For such a man who looked around with his hands behind his back, like a silly son of a landlord, everyone around him cast a surprised look.
After a while, the road to Mingde Gate came to an end.
Then, someone would lead them directly to a square in the palace city according to their grades, and wait in line to get in.
Tang Sufan was led by an older chamberlain.
Sharp eyebrows, narrow eyes, and a steady expression.
The chamberlain was naturally very discerning, and when he saw that Tang Sufan was wearing a marquis-level uniform, but his color was only slightly crimson, he could tell that Tang Sufan had no official position.
I'm afraid it's not just the second generation whose ancestors have passed away and inherited the title of their predecessors.
After all, this kind of thing is not uncommon in Chang'an City.
In the troubled times before the Sui and Tang Dynasties, many military veterans died in battle, and it was not uncommon for their titles to be inherited by their children.
He couldn't help but snorted coldly, followed by a high-pitched voice.
"Young man, there are rules and regulations in this palace. Don't mess around. I'm going to warn you. If you get into trouble, it's hard to say..."
This kid has quite a lack of eyesight.
Not a single hello was left unanswered. From the look on his face, it was obvious that this was his first time in the palace. After walking for so long, he didn’t even have the most basic "etiquette".
He is really a newborn calf with low eyesight.
trouble?
What's the trouble with visiting my father-in-law's "home"?
Tang Sufan curled his lips and was too lazy to really care.
How could he not understand what the old chamberlain meant?
For this kind of person, care is just a waste of useless thoughts.
"Thank you, father-in-law, for reminding me, but I'm not afraid of trouble~"
The old chamberlain's eyes darkened. I had already mentioned this, but why was he so blind?
Which idiot from this family broke into the palace?
The old chamberlain's eyes slowly turned cold and he said in a low voice.
"Young man, you have a long way to go, don't be too arrogant~"
Tang Sufan smiled with small white teeth.
"How can you still call yourself a young man if you are not full of energy?"
Old chamberlain:...
He finally knew that he couldn't make any money from this.
This is a reckless fool, and he doesn't know how he will die in the future.
After a while, the old chamberlain led Tang Sufan all the way across the crowd to a place where officials were already standing.
When he arrived, the waiter still looked unhappy.
"Hey, boy, there are a lot of rules in this palace. If you violate them, be careful and you will be killed..."
The old chamberlain dropped a warning word coldly, turned around and left.
Tang Sufan couldn't see that this old eunuch wanted reward money. If you want it, alas, I won't give it to you. Are you angry?
What palace? This is my father-in-law's house.
This evil trend must be stopped.
Tang Sufan smiled noncommittally and then continued to wander around.
At this moment, Tang Sufan had just arrived, and a fat man came running over from the side.
.
The fat man was also wearing a royal uniform, but it was cyan.
His chubby face looked somewhat blessed, and he looked like he was in his twenties, with a short beard on his chin.
Keep your chest out and your belly up, and your muscles will tremble when you walk.
He looks like a complete landlord.
He immediately rubbed his hands and stuck it over.
"This grown-up has a pretty face. I wonder what his last name is?"
Tang Sufan turned around and took a look. He looked very happy. He looked like a landlord.
Seeing how much older this guy was, he replied politely.
"My little brother's surname is Tang. I wonder what your surname is?"
"Hey, you're welcome, you're welcome. Your Excellency is a marquis, so just call me Zhang Cai."
The fat man had a cheerful face and a fawning look on his face.
Qianfei robe, that was a rank higher than his title.
There is nothing wrong with getting closer and closer.
"Master Tang, why did you offend this palace servant?"
The fat man asked with his earthworm-like brows furrowed as if he was concerned.
"It's okay, I just wanted to find some reward money, so I didn't give it to him."
The fat man was startled and said quickly.
"Sir, we won't save these two bucks. I'm afraid this is my first time entering the palace. As everyone knows, the officials in this palace are a nest of snakes and rats, and they are all connected. You can't mess with them. Spend two bucks. It’s not a big deal if you save yourself a little trouble.”
Immediately, Zhang Caihuan lowered his head and whispered.
"If you give a lot, even though the officials are small, they can still do some things for you and get some news. The officials in this palace rely on this to make some money every year. If you don't have enough money, , it is inevitable to be resented."
Hold a grudge?
Why don't I tell you that these are my father-in-law's employees?
Of course, Tang Sufan is very low-key.
He nodded his head and said a few words in agreement.
When he finished looking around, he realized that the people around him were all wearing noble uniforms like him, and few were wearing official robes.
The people wearing official robes were also about two feet away, standing in another row.
Tang Sufan's mouth twitched, Old Li, Old Li!
This is an arrangement for him!
Then he asked the familiar Zhang Cai next to him.
Zhang Cai immediately replied with a smile on his face.
"Your Excellency, you don't know. Most of us, like us, have inherited the title of their fathers in the family. They have no official or position. Some of them only have errands the size of sesame seeds, and they cannot enter the court."
Then Zhang Caile put his hands in his hands and asked happily: "I just don't know, sir, you are obviously a marquis, why don't you pass the official position?"
Marquis, if he is a descendant, then the previous generation was a proper county magistrate. How could he not be able to find connections and get an official position?
Zhang Cai had noticed this the moment he saw Tang Sufan.
"I have no intention of being an official, I just want to be an idler."
Zhang Cai immediately gave a thumbs up and a look of admiration on his face.
"Sir, you are really open-minded and free-spirited. I admire you, I admire you!"
In fact...
Where did this idiot come from? That is the identity of the Marquis! If you want to get an official position, isn't it easy to get one?
Is it a good thing to get an extra salary and an extra reputation?
I couldn't make it even if I rushed there, you're a fool, you're a fool.
How nice would it be if you gave this to me?
…
At this moment.
Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty was getting dressed in the Chengqing Hall.
As the protagonist of Chang'an City tonight, he must wear something upright.
It has been several years since the emperor went on a tour.
There are more than a few etiquette rules in it, and the emperor's clothes are very particular.
Emperors of the Tang Dynasty wore many types of clothing, including 14 types of large fur crowns, Tongtian crowns, Yishan crowns, and Wu Bian white robes.
But today, it is a golden crown and a dragon crown, which is extremely powerful.
"His Majesty!"
Li Shimin had just put on a heavy golden dragon robe when a soft cry came from beside him.
"How about that boy? Can he enter the palace?"
