Chu Qing asked again and again and finally confirmed that there were no horseshoes in Changchao.
But this thing is just a concept, just like grilling cold noodles. You can learn it at a glance, so it is a one-time deal.
Chu Qing's idea was very simple. Find a general in the Ministry of War and sell this "concept" to him. The other party would pay for it and report it to the court. As for the reward from the court, it had nothing to do with Chu Qing.
After talking about his idea, Chu Qing asked Fu San to go to the Ministry of War to find someone he could trust. It would be best if he had a higher official position. Of course, the most important thing was to have money.
Fu San was a bit confused. He knew a lot of people he could trust, and he could find people with high official positions, but it was difficult to be satisfied with money.
However, Chu Qing had already confessed, so Fu San had no choice but to go and look for it, but before he left the Chu Mansion, Chen Yan came and delivered five hundred silver notes.
Chu Qing looked at the bank note with a complicated expression: "Did you really mortgage your mansion?"
Even though he knew this was the case, Chu Qing was still a little surprised. In addition to the surprise, there was also a more complicated emotion in his heart.
"Yes, it was originally worth six hundred guan, but Na Yaxing wanted to take advantage, and I didn't reveal my official status. Forget it, you used it to build the Taowu Palace. It would have been saved if it had been built earlier. Your Majesty punishes the people of Chu Wensheng who are dedicated to serving the people."
"Aren't you afraid that I won't pay you back?"
Chen Yan smiled and said lightly: "Brother Chu Xian, please don't forget to repay Brother Yu the five hundred guan, but you must not forget to ask for life for the common people. Brother Yu, you, and Shaozhang, the three of us will definitely repay the one in this world." Qingbai, a fair one."
After finishing speaking, Chen Yan left, his back looking deserted.
Fu San sighed silently: "Master, when I look at the back of Mr. Chen, why do I feel a little stooped? When I see him on weekdays, he always looks energetic and upright."
"Being poor means you have to stoop." Chu Qing sighed: "Especially the poor who don't even have a real estate certificate, they can't stand up and live a good life. This world is so fucked up."
Fu San fell into thinking and didn't know what to do.
"The young one is going to the Ministry of War now?"
Chu Qing glanced at the five hundred silver notes in his hand and shook his head: "I got the banknotes. Don't be in a hurry. Let's go back to the palace and confirm how much building materials the Ministry of Internal Affairs can provide."
"But didn't you say yesterday that the dead eunuch was only given a few palace pillars?"
"I don't understand. Have you brought those small banknotes with you from the Office of the Ministry of Revenue?"
"Of course I'm waiting. I'm afraid I'll lose it. I have fifty pieces in my crotch pants and the rest in my boots. I'll give them to you here, the younger one."
"Pull him down." Chu Qing waved his hands repeatedly: "When we are about to enter the palace, you will... No, third brother, can you please stop hiding money in your crotch from now on? How disgusting."
"But I see that this is what the master did. Not only the banknotes, but also the copper coins were hidden in his crotch."
"Isn't that a bit alarming?"
"well enough."
Chu Qing: "..."
He wanted to complain a few more words, but Chu Qing suddenly remembered something.
When he was a child in his previous life, his father took him on a long trip. He was afraid of losing money on the train, so he stuffed it in his crotch.
Suddenly, the image of the old father, who had been blurred for nearly 20 years in the previous life, gradually overlapped with Chu Wensheng.
Suddenly, Chu Qing suddenly discovered that his father in the previous life was very similar to his father in this life. They both doted on him and acted like the boss and the second child in front of him. But when he was looking for a life outside, he was so embarrassed. I bent my waist and endured all kinds of pain. When I returned home, I bragged to myself about how beautiful I was outside.
"Someone told me that father and son are always changing. In this life, I will be a son and enjoy the blessing..." Chu Qing closed his eyes slightly and murmured: "In the next life, he will become a father, and the father will become a son. , I have to take good care of my son and work as a cow and horse for my father."
Fu San fell into deep thought again: "Then...who becomes the father first?"
Chu Qing, who was immersed in sadness, broke his guard with one word and also fell into thinking.
Yes, if this is the case, my father is my son, my son is my father, I am my father, I am my son's father, I am...
"From now on, third brother, please don't interrupt me when I talk about philosophy or other lofty matters."
Fu San scratched the back of his head again: "Okay, but Master, can you tell me why?"
"It's okay. In short, I just cherish the people in front of me, cherish what I care about, and cherish the present moment. Let's go and enter the palace."
Fu San patted his crotch: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely cherish the banknotes under my crotch."
"I mean cherish the moment." Chu Qing pointed to the ground with a speechless expression, and then pointed at Fu San's crotch: "I don't mean to cherish your crotch!"
Fusan suddenly realized: "I understand, you are talking about your crotch, not my crotch. This crotch is not that crotch."
"It's okay, let's go."
…………
In the Jingyi Hall, Emperor Chang Chengyou had just finished approving the memorial, shook his neck, and then took out a poem from under the desk.
As the former fourth prince, people only remembered that the new prince had been stationed in the south to defend the mountains and plains from the barbarians. However, they did not know that this prince, who was famous for his strategy, also studied under the great Confucian scholar, and could be called a Yun Wen Yun Wu. .
But it is precisely because he is proficient in these poems and songs that Chang Chengyou understands more clearly that the four words "prosperous age and Huazhang" can never be separated. Only when there is a prosperous age can there be Huazhang. If there is no prosperous age, it is just a pretentious and pretentious state of speech.
The reason for creating a character who likes poetry and poetry is just to win over the hearts of the nobles.
Compared to these poems, the emperor preferred to dance with swords and sticks and read about the art of war.
"Sun An."
The emperor called softly, and the old eunuch quickly walked into the palace.
"Your Majesty, this old slave is here."
"Listen well, I thought of another poem yesterday."
The old eunuch showed an extremely helpless expression on his face: "Old slave, listen."
"Today I am the prince and you ignore me. Tomorrow I am the emperor and you are too high to reach me."
As soon as the word "qi" came out, Chang Chengyou laughed loudly, slapped the table, and laughed with his belly in his hands: "Hahaha, how about it, hahaha, how about my poem."
The old eunuch showed a forced smile: "Your Majesty's writing is brilliant, wonderful, wonderful beyond words."
"Hahaha, wonderful, wonderful, then you should laugh, hahahaha."
The old eunuch showed a fake smile, as if he had just finished eating his love rival's meal, except that his love rival died for love with his wife.
After laughing for a long time, the emperor tugged at his front: "This son of the right minister of the Ministry of Industry is really a wonderful man. I have read countless poems and articles, but this lady is the only one I can't reach. Hahahahaha, It’s common slang, but it makes me laugh.”
Old eunuch: "Ha, haha, hahaha, hahahaha."
After Chang Chengyou laughed, he looked slightly troubled: "No, I always feel that the poem I came up with is not as happy as that old lady who made you unable to climb high. I will think about it in the next few days."
The old eunuch has been following Chang Chengyou for more than 20 years. He has never understood one thing, and that is why the most powerful master in front of him has been laughing since he was a child, and his laughter point is particularly low.
Glancing at the poems on the table, the old eunuch couldn't figure out what was so funny about these four or sixty-eight sentences. Not to mention ridiculous, they weren't even considered poems.
The old eunuch secretly glanced at the emperor, who had a troubled and meditative look on his face, and sighed silently in his heart.
The prince, a nobleman of Tianhuang, has grown up in the palace since childhood, and is better than the hands of women. He has many rules, principles, and talks. As a nobleman of Tianhuang, how can he express his emotions at will? All these joys, anger, sorrows, and joys must be hidden. .
As for the fourth prince, according to rumors, he came into this world with a smile. Other princes and other babies all cried all day long, but this fourth prince giggled all day long and learned to crawl. He crawled with a smile. Even when you fall down, you laugh. When you learn to walk, you walk with a smile. Even when you bump into something, you still laugh.
But as he got older, he always loved to smile, but he lost the dignity of a prince.
Without the majesty of a prince, you can imagine how many slaps and lessons you will receive. You can't laugh, you can only suppress it. In this way, you have become a king and an emperor, but you can't even laugh. How can there be an emperor who laughs all day long? .
A young eunuch hurriedly walked in, and Chang Chengyou quickly showed the majesty that an emperor should have: "What's the matter?"
"Replying to Your Majesty, I am looking for the Grand Eunuch. The Grand Eunuch has previously represented me. Chu Qing, the son of the left minister of the Ministry of Industry, must report it when he goes to Taowu Hall."
The emperor looked at the old eunuch: "The son of Chu Wensheng?"
"So, Master Chu seems to have left the task of repairing Taowu Palace to his son Chu Qing, and he has already entered the palace twice."
"Chu Wensheng really didn't care about the renovation of Taowu Palace. He's a bastard." Chang Chengyou snorted slightly and was about to wave Sun An away when he suddenly thought of something: "Xian If there is nothing wrong, I also went to see if that boy has three heads and six arms. They say that this tiger father has no dogs, but this dude is called a living beast by the people of Bei City, which is an insult to the name of a general."
"You are a noble person, so why bother? The old slave will bring him in to greet you."
"No need, go find a pair of clothes of a royal guard, no, look for clothes of a dormitory guard, just in time for me to find an excuse to teach Chu Wensheng a lesson for this dandy."
Sun An looked helpless.
The emperor is good at everything, but his smile is low, and after all... he is still not up to business.
Are you trying to teach Chu Wensheng's children a lesson? Do you want to take out your anger on Chu Wensheng's children?
