Chapter 67 Life Guarantee
It was Xue Shao's usual style. He rode a Weilong BMW out of the house, and Xue Shao went straight to Xicheng to find Yu Hongye first, and prepared to bring her and her tea sets with him, and then visit Xue Kegou.
He has always been a hero and three gangs, not to mention that he wants to be in the officialdom. Xue Shao did not expect that the royal marriage, which had not yet been even a single brown horoscope, could bring him everything; people still have to rely on themselves. Today he helped and promoted Yao Yuanchong, no matter how far he was tomorrow, it would always be good for him. Even if he did not succeed in his death, it would be considered as multiple friends and multiple ways.
If you don’t sow seeds in spring, where can you get harvest in autumn?
Xue Shao went to Yu Hongye's handicraft workshop, and their work progressed very quickly. Yu Hongye was very serious in doing things, and every bra was as small as every part. She personally inspected and carefully considered it repeatedly.
The place in Xishi gathers wealth from all over the world, and countless merchants gathered to struggle here, one more smarter than the other, and everyone comes for money. Therefore, if you want to earn an extra coin, you have to rack your brains as if you are experiencing a war.
No matter how shrewd and capable Yu Hongye is, she is a woman with a small family background. It is not easy to stand out and be proud of her. Moreover, in addition to the competition in the shopping mall, there are also open battles. If Xue Shao had not appeared in time to stop a group of people from siege, her shop would have been removed from the West Market.
Now that Xue Shao's threading needles can be used in the royal business, it is a major opportunity and turning point in Yu Hongye's life. Therefore, she attaches great importance to this business, not only investing a lot of money and manpower, but also investing almost all her efforts.
Everyone will encounter many opportunities in their life, and a few people seize it and succeed. Most people sit and watch the opportunity slip away quietly, thus becoming mediocre.
Xue Shao felt that Yu Hongye should be the former.
"How many?" Xue Shao asked.
"Tomorrow morning, we will get two hundred integers." Yu Hongye said, "The shoulder straps and waist belts have cowhide elastic tendons and loose knots that are easy to adjust. People with different fat and thinness can probably wear them. The main reason is that the sizes are different for different cup covers. Hongye has repeatedly tested it, making cup B and cup C the most, followed by cup A and cup D. There are also very small amounts... more than cup D."
Yu Hongye is really smart and can do market research. Xue Shao laughed loudly, "Above Ding Cup, did you make it for someone like Yue Nu?"
"Hongye has to take two bras to Yuenu to try it out in person, and then he knows whether it is suitable." Yu Hongye's face turned red slightly, and Wan'er smiled, "Please wait for the young master and wait for Hongye to go to change clothes before accompanying him to visit Mr. Xue!"
"good."
Later, the two arrived at Xue Kegou's mansion. When the old man saw Xue Shao and Yu Hongye, he laughed, "It's a good time. I'm just getting addicted to tea! Since that day, I have drunk the tea made by Miss Hongye, and it will be a bad taste for me to drink the tea in my mansion!"
"It is also my honor to be able to serve the clan uncle!" Xue Shao bowed his hand and bowed to worship with a smile.
"Sit, sit quickly!"
The two sat in the hall separately, and Yu Hongye cooked tea from the side.
Xue Shao didn't go around the corner and said straight to the point: "My clan uncle, my nephew is here today, but he actually has something to ask for."
"Okay, you say." Xue Kegou was simply not allowed to enter the Three Treasures Palace without any trouble. He has been an official for decades, so he could not imagine that.
"I have a friend who comes from the Yao family of Wuxing. He is about 30 years old and has a very good talent." Xue Shao said, "Originally, he had no intention of career, but I thought he was a rare talent for practical things, so I took the initiative to persuade him to participate in this year's spring examination and become an official. Therefore, I forced him to write a paper and want to submit it to my clan's uncle."
"Ho ho, how can you force people to refer to the principle of becoming an official!" Xue Kegou smiled as he stroked his beard, "Wu Xing Yao family is a famous family. What's his name?"
"Yao Yuanchong, whose courtesy name is Yuanzhi."
Xue Kego nodded, stretched out his hand, "Take the scroll."
Xue Shao smiled and handed Yao Yuanchong the two wrong poems, "I was in a hurry, and this line of scroll is a bit simple. Don't blame me!"
"You!...haha!" Xue Kegou laughed indifferently, spread out the paper and took a look, then frowned, "This poem is very ordinary!"
"Yes." Xue Shao nodded, "He is a capable minister who does practical things, not known for his literary talent and poetry. Because of this, my nephew specially asked the clan behemoth to help him."
"I have such a little friendship with Wei Xuantong, the Minister of Personnel, and can help a little." Xue Kegou said, "But the academic examination is not the final decision for a minister of the Ministry of Personnel. There is also the Secretary of the Left Pushe Liu Rengui. Although Liu Rengui is hiding his strength and maintaining a low profile, he rarely manages the affairs of the Secretary of the State Council, but there is also the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, who is in full swing!"
Xue Shao smiled slightly, "Just just recommend Yao Yuanchong. Zuo Pushe and Shizhong should not have too many opinions."
Xue Kegou has been in the officialdom for decades and has long been as smart as a ghost. How could he not hear the meaning of Xue Shao's words?
Now Pei Yan is rising strongly with the promotion of the queen of heaven, especially at the critical moment when the spring examination is about to be tested, he replaced Hao Chujun as the minister of the minister and became the prime minister of the minister. The queen of heaven is very obvious, which is to let Pei Yan take this opportunity to build connections and recruit more students, thereby strengthening his strength and stabilizing his position.
Since Xue Shao dared to recommend Yao Yuanchong at this critical moment, there is naturally his reason. Although he has not officially married Princess Taiping, it is definitely okay to send a few words to the queen through Princess Taiping. Maybe, Yao Yuanchong has long been "famous" in the queen's mind.
Now Xue Shao recommends Yao Yuanchong with his guise of Xue Kegou, and he really respects him. He lets him pick up a good reputation for valuing the court and give this favor to Yao Yuanchong. If Yao Yuanchong becomes successful in the future, he will definitely not forget Xue Kegou, who has been kind to him and has the grace of being grateful to him!
Not only did he follow the will of the queen, but he also gained favors from Xue Shao and Yao Yuanchong. This is undoubtedly a good thing for Xue Kegou to kill two birds with one stone. It is even more win-win for both parties.
Xue Kegou nodded with a smile, "Since he is a friend who is recommended by Chenggong, of course I cannot refuse. I will accept the papers and I will recommend Yao Yuanchong sooner or later. However, I am not an official from the Ministry of Personnel and the provincial government. How good Yao Yuanchong will do at that time depends on his own talent."
"Thank you for your fulfillment!" Xue Shao bowed and bowed, "It is already a perfect end to the clan's best to achieve this. The rest depends on Yao Yuanchong's own luck!"
"Okay, okay!" Xue Kegou smiled with a long smile, "It is great to be a noble family in the country and be able to recommend talents to the court. Don't worry, I will recommend this Yao Yuanchong."
"Thank you, my uncle!" Xue Shao bowed and bowed again, "In my nephew's opinion, Yao Yuanchong is a person who does practical things. It is best to let him accumulate experience as a small official at the county level."
"Haha, it seems that Chengyu is quite respectful to Yao Yuanchong!" Xue Kegou nodded and smiled, "Okay, I will try my best to help me and try to help him find a real position as a county magistrate of his parents! But after all, I am not actually in power, and I will not dare to fully guarantee what kind of official position he can get in the end."
"Thank you, my uncle!"
Yu Hongye cooked tea and presented it to the two of them.
"What a great tea! It's a refreshing and crispy mouth, and the salty taste is just right!" Xue Kegou took a sip and praised it endlessly, "Cheng Yu, you, the servant girl, have a delicate and clever heart. You can accurately grasp my taste so quickly!"
"Mr. Xue is too good to be praised, but I really don't dare to take it." Yu Hongye hurriedly thanked.
"Haha, my mouth is sweet, I have to call me husband!" Xue Kegou laughed twice and said, "Cheng Yu, I have Xue Ji here last time, so I have something inconvenient to say."
Xue Shao said: "What kind of admonition does the clan man have? Today, I might as well say it. Hongye is my confidant."
"Well." Xue Kegou nodded, his expression became more serious, and he said, "My Fenyin Xue family is a major Hedong surname. His family has always been prosperous and famous ministers. It can be traced back to the Three Kingdoms period. Over the past few hundred years, the Xue clan has continued to grow, and from the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the founding of the Tang Dynasty to the prosperity, he was a first-class noble family. Li Tang stood up in Guanlong with military force and won the world. Although he was a royal family, the Li surname was not noble in the eyes of the world, far inferior to Guanzhong.
Traditional noble surnames such as Xue Wei Pei Liu and Cui Li Zheng Wang from Shandong. When Emperor Taizong issued an order to edit the clan clan, the Guanlong Li surname was ranked fourth in the first place. Taizong was furious and forced the Guanlong Li surname to be ranked first. Despite this, it was impossible to change the conventional views and impressions in the hearts of the world. Therefore, the emperors of the Tang Dynasty could only continue to marry the great clans to improve the image and status of the Li royal family in the eyes of the world."
"My Fenyin Xue family is one of the marriage nobles that the Li family attaches most to. " Xue Kegou stroked his beard and sighed leisurely, "In fact, in the eyes of us real nobles who value Confucianism and etiquette, the Li family who stood up in the mixed place of Guanlong and Han Hu lived, captured the world on the back of the horse..."
Xue Kegou stopped halfway through his words, after all, some words are taboo.
Xue Shao nodded to understand the meaning of his words - meaning that the people of the royal family of Li still have a little "Hu people's habit" and do not pay special attention to etiquette and law. Some of their behavioral habits are very crude and obscene in the eyes of many nobles who have been passed down for hundreds of years of Confucian education.
For example, the Xuanwu Sect Incident that Emperor Taizong had created, killing his brother and forcing his father, was definitely a very unworthy thing in the eyes of Confucian nobles; Li Shimin killed his younger brother Li Yuanji, and then married his younger brother's wife, Yang Fei, which was even more incest.
In addition, the people of the royal family surnamed Li were deeply influenced by Hu Feng and seemed quite casual in matters between men and women. It was not uncommon for mother and daughter to serve a husband together. This was a barbaric manifestation of "the Hu nature has not yet disappeared, and the barbaric has not yet escaped."
Therefore, many traditional noble families believe that the royal family of Li is vulgar, barbaric and uneducated, and are not willing to marry the royal family of Li, but they can't resist the emperor's orders and can only obey it. Moreover, most of the princesses of Li Tang are domineering and disrespectful to their parents-in-law, ignoring the etiquette and law, not to mention guarding their wives. There are lessons to the preaching of stealing monks and participating in rebellion like Princess Gaoyang.
"Marrying a princess" is a good thing for many people in all dynasties to shine for success, but in the eyes of prominent nobles like the Xue clan, it is a very aggrieved and timid thing.
Xue Kegou said in a low voice with his eyebrows tightly: "Cheng Yu, if you really become a princess, you must be more restrained and be careful in the future, especially guarding the door well, and never cause trouble! Isn't there a saying nowadays - get a princess to marry and buy an official in plain sight!"
The implication is that marrying a princess from the Tang Dynasty means putting the government at home and having trouble with lawsuits at any time.
Xue Shao smiled indifferently, "Don't worry, the clan uncle. If the brown marriage is really implemented, my nephew dares to use his life to guarantee it - Princess Taiping is definitely different from other Tang Dynasty princesses, she will definitely be the good wife of the Xue family!"
Life guarantee?
Xue Kegou stared at the sight of shock.
