Chapter seven hundred and forty-ninth the battle of the privy envoys
The New Year of the Song Dynasty is coming quietly. You don't even need to pay special attention. You can guess when it is just by looking at the changes in the flow of people and the excitement in Tokyo.
Ye An was packing up his clothes. Today was the official day. News had come from the palace that officials from various ministries and departments were ordered to go to the Daqing Palace to "arrange the battle." Ye An was the Marquis of Yunzhong County, and he was also the Shaoqing of Sinong Temple and a tea concubine.
As a matter of fact, I must go to attend the imperial congratulations.
The emperor received congratulations from hundreds of officials, which is commonly known as "arranging the right battle". Of course, the Song Dynasty is not what it used to be. The Battle of Huanzhou caught both Dangxiang and the Khitan people by surprise. Although it has been so long, it is still unforgettable.
This time, foreign envoys from Liao, Goryeo, Xixia, Khotan, Uighur, etc. came to congratulate one after another. A prosperous and stable dynasty will inevitably affect external forces. People who smell the smell of interests will always flock to it, just like stars.
There are always planets surrounding them, and an irresistible force is attracting them, that is, interests.
Sleeping in the warehouse last night seemed comfortable, but the price was also "heavy". Qin Mumu's slender neck was as stiff as a cricket, and Ye An's own arms were also numb...
The couple originally planned to go out for some morning exercise, but as soon as they opened the door to the side room, they were blown back by a gust of "passing wind". The weather this winter is really crazy, it's so cold that it's ridiculous.
They still have to continue their morning jog. This is a habit that the couple developed in Tokyo. However, this has been "criticized" by the neighbors in Xinlingfang. They all don't understand why Ye An and Qin Mumu do it every day.
Get up early and run around the Hou Mansion.
Ye An always smiled and said nothing. Don't explain things that you can't explain, otherwise people will misunderstand. Qin Mumu once "popularized science" to the women of Xinlingfang without believing in evil. Life lies in sports...
As a result, she was chased and asked about the reason, which immediately left her speechless.
You simply can't explain to the ancients what aerobic exercise is. Ye An once laughed at Qin Mumu's behavior and shot himself in the foot. Even though Qin Mumu was not convinced, she was soon stunned.
After Ye An proudly said "the art of body training", everyone looked at him differently. The people in Xinlingfang really thought this was some kind of amazing "magical power"...
…
Putting on the thickened cotton coat, Ye An felt that his body was gradually getting warmer. This was the first batch of cotton coats produced by Puhui Company. The cotton was pressed tightly, and it did not look bulky when worn close to the body.
The satin lining has a very good thermal insulation effect.
Qin Mumu tied her hair into a ponytail in a chic way. Ye An felt that the heroic policewoman from before had appeared again, and she was speechless, but Xuan'er was unwilling to let her go out.
Which county gentleman is dressed like this? Not only is he wearing a hunting suit, but he also has his hair tied up so casually that even the maids have to make a bun!
In the end, Qin Mumu couldn't resist Xuan'er's persuasion, so she tied up the long ponytail on her head, casually patted away the hairpin that Xuan'er sent, and fixed it firmly with the hairpin, then she glared at her and said: "I
Is it shameful to go out for a run and wear hairpins, hairpins, and jingle rings all over your head?"
After saying that, he went out angrily amidst Ye An's loud laughter, which made Xuan'er feel aggrieved and didn't know what to say. Ye An helplessly patted her head and said: "You're a good girl, but you care too much about my wife."
I'm so embarrassed... Hehe..." After saying that, he turned around and chased her out, leaving Xuan'er alone in the courtyard pouting.
After two laps of morning jogging, Qin Mumu began to spit out white mist from her mouth like a fire-breathing dragon. Ye An kept reminding her to breathe through her nose, but Qin Mumu said breathlessly: "Do you think everyone else is like this?"
Are you the same?! Women's physical fitness is not as good as men's. It's already good for me to run down like this. Hey, don't tell me that I just realized that our family is quite big..."
After a morning run, you feel so hot and comfortable all over. A bowl of delicious mutton soup with green coriander and bright red chili oil is the ultimate enjoyment.
Qin Mumu didn't like to drink mutton soup at first. She thought the taste was too strong, but gradually she got used to the taste of mutton soup and said it was sweet and mellow, similar to milk.
Ge Shanshu greeted diligently: "Master Marquis, Lord of the County, is our mutton soup becoming more authentic? This is a recipe I heard from the Dangxiang people. You need to add a pine branch when the pot is boiled to make the soup more authentic."
All the annoying odor has been sucked away!"
"Well! There is really no odor anymore, and your mutton soup is getting whiter and whiter. Have you ever thought about opening a small stall next to Puhui Department Store? If you don't do anything else, you can make money just by selling mutton soup.
Quite a few.”
Qin Mumu is still encouraging her neighbors in Xinlingfang to open a store in Puhui Department Store. She wants to turn Puhui Department Store into a real supermarket and add a catering area, so that she can retain customers to the greatest extent. At the same time,
Increase the prices of storefronts and surrounding areas.
Ge Shanshu crossed his hands and bowed: "The county king has always taken care of my neighbors, but let's forget about opening a shop on Dongda Street! I like Xinlingfang, and there are a lot of people coming and going, and business is busy every day.
But come here, if you go to Dongda Street to open a shop again, it will cost me, Lao Ge, his life!"
Looking at Xinlingfang, where business was booming early in the morning, Qin Mumu nodded: "I know, you are not short of money now, but you are short of someone. If you have time, I will scan one for you.
An honest woman who can live a good life is better than you at home, and she can still have a warm mouth and food when she goes home, right?"
"Then thank you, Lord County!"
Ye An was drinking soup while giving Qin Mumu a thumbs up. She was attentive and saw what the third uncle needed most. She was not short of money and did not care about money. She had not let go before. It was because of the living conditions.
It's not easy, but now that life is getting better, I naturally hope to find a partner to live with.
Chen Lin didn't know when she came, and she sat on the edge with a golden sword. She didn't say anything and just raised her head at Ge Shanshu. Ge Shanshu smiled and said: "I know, the high officials still follow the old rules, so here we go."
!”
"Today, when you enter the palace to prepare for the official battle, you must tidy up and behave yourself in the palace. The censors in the palace are all there! Don't be surprised if anything happens."
Ye An raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Lin, who was calmly drinking soup beside him: "How should I say? Is it a change in the palace or a change in the court situation?"
"What trouble could there be in the palace? There are indeed some invisible things in the court!" Chen Lin broke off a piece of pancake and threw it into the soup bowl.
"Then it has nothing to do with me. I had no intention of getting involved."
Chen Lin looked up from the soup bowl curiously, looked at Ye An and said in surprise: "You don't know about this?"
"What's the matter? It's not like you don't know what I've been busy with these days. I don't have time to know what's going on in the court without touching the ground. I haven't been to Sinong Temple for a few days. Not to mention Puhui Company, I don't have time.
Listen to the news."
Ye rolled his eyes, while Chen Lin looked at Qin Mumu, looking embarrassed. Then she put down the soup bowl in her hand and said: "Why does the official look at me like this? I know but I don't agree with Ye." Lang said, isn't it just about the Privy Council? Whether it is Cao Lili or Zhang Qi, they are both figures in the emperor's heart, and the saint will choose them."
"This matter! It really has nothing to do with us. Drink the soup, drink the soup. Anyway, I have already advised the deputy privy envoy Yan Shu. It is his business to listen or not."
Chen Lin's eyes narrowed slightly: "You really know it, but you still pretend to be innocent in front of a certain family?! Just tell me why you didn't receive the news about such a big news. I don't intend to interfere with it!"
Ye An smiled, picked up the soup bowl and drank it all in one gulp: "Yes! What does it have to do with me?!"
