A large piece of roasted black pork was served, and the aroma immediately filled the air. The pork was a bit off-flavored, but the meat was very melty and tasted good. The food and cooking at this time was indeed simpler than in later generations, and the industry and commerce with a more detailed division of labor were also very complex.
Withering, food comes and goes in the same way. But for the wealthy, eating is actually okay, as long as the whole piece of meat can satisfy the appetite, like tomahawk steak.
Of course, if the common people eat rough wheat rice with skin, corn rice, and wheat bran cakes ground together, and drink rice porridge and vegetable paste without seasonings, life will indeed be a bit bitter. I can only say that life is good.
Well, maybe sometimes I can’t even eat those things.
"There is meat to eat now." Gao Rou said, "If we don't think about the long term, the next meal will not be certain."
The meat that Qin Liang just picked up paused in his hand. He raised his head and glanced at the old man Gao Rou. He said to himself: What you said is really interesting. If I eat a piece of your meat, I owe a huge favor. Can you, brother?
Atmosphere?
Gao Rou was afraid that Qin Liang wouldn't understand, so she continued: "It is easy to be frivolous if you gain fame too early, which is not necessarily a good thing. I would like to say that you should rely on your old age and sell your old age. People still have to go through more hardships and experience more, and don't rush for quick success."
When Qin Liang heard this, he almost wanted to burp. This "big cake" was so full, but it was a pity that it was painted.
He thought to himself: Zhong Hui, who can drag any pretty girl into the wing room and lift up her skirt when he is just a teenager, gives Gao Lao a thumbs up. Deng Ai, who is full of geniuses and strategies and is still a slave even in middle age, also gives Gao Lao some thumbs up.
Like, I have to thank Sima for his knowledge, otherwise Deng Ai would have to stick to straw for the rest of his life.
But Gao Rou may really feel that what he said makes sense. Even he himself believes that enduring hardship is a blessing, and he is serious about it. Unfortunately, Qin Liang's ears have become calluses when he heard words like that. Not only did he not believe it,
I even feel a little want to laugh. For example, when a teenager is able to uncover a beautiful girl's clothes, that kind of curious, fresh, excited, eager and beautiful mood, can that be made up for in the future when he gets older?
What's more, people talk about what to do when they get rich. Most of the time, they are just carrots in front of the donkey. Maybe they will only become more embarrassed as time goes by, and all they get in the end is helplessness.
However, Qin Liang felt that being as experienced as this sixty or seventy-year-old old man made him appear unstable. He cursed for a while, but said in front of him: "What Mr. Ming said is absolutely true. Liang still needs time to learn from the seniors."
Although Tingwei is the most senior official in the criminal and prison matters in the country, he is not the boss of the school affairs office. Gao Rou cannot control the school affairs office, otherwise why would he invite Qin Liang to dinner? But Gao Rou, a veteran of the four dynasties, was in great power in the Wei Dynasty.
There are many connections in the imperial court and high prestige. It is not a wise move to offend such a person for no reason. Therefore, Qin Liang behaved quite modestly.
Unexpectedly, Qin Liang gave him a little face, and Gao Rou actually said it. He may think that Qin Liang is a "teachable scholar", so he continued: "You have to take a long-term view. If you should refuse something, just refuse it. Why do you have to do it?"
Who sacrifices his life?"
Qin Liang was serious and thoughtful, thinking: But I have already accepted it, what is the use of talking about it now? You are just talking in plain words, and no one has given me a fifth-rank official. In the end, Cao Shuang gave it to me.
Yes. This official rank is a bit off, but it is fifth grade.
Gao Rou added: "It's still too late to write your resignation now. Tomorrow I will submit a letter to abolish the school affairs office."
Qin Liang finally couldn't help but said: "If I have to resign immediately on the first day I accept the official position, I'm afraid it will appear that I'm a renegade person without a anchor, isn't it good?"
Gao Rou pondered for a moment, and then said in a sincere tone: "The Wang family in Taiyuan can be considered a famous family. Since Zhong Ming is married to her, he should not think about his own feathers and future, but he should also think about the Wang family's reputation.
I don’t think Zhongming has done great service to the country in Huainan and is just the kind of person the country needs, so I don’t bother to talk to you. I do this for your own good, and I hope Zhongming will think more about it.”
Qin Liang bowed his head and said: "Ming Gong's kindness, Liang accepts it with heart. After taking office, Liang will remember Ming Gong's admonitions and dare not act recklessly. However, I have informed my uncle beforehand. Please rest assured, Ming Gong, nothing will happen."
thing."
When Gao Rou heard this, she had no choice but to sigh and said: "What a pity for such a good man, you can just do what you want."
But Qin Liang noticed carefully that Gao Rou seemed to be secretly happy. Indeed, Gao Rou's "Hongmen Banquet" today to force Qin Liang to resign may not have been his purpose. It was just the effect of the pressure.
The two of them said nothing more, and only exchanged a few polite words after lunch. Qin Liang said goodbye and walked out of the front hall. Originally, he mainly wanted to try the cooking skills of Tingwei Mansion, but it turned out that the meal was not easy.
, he was also held down and fed a belly full of pie, riding a horse.
Qin Liang saw Wang Kang next to the gatehouse, and suddenly felt that something was missing, so he asked, "Where is Yinci?"
Wang Kang said: "He ran to find someone. He said he wanted to ask someone to let him visit the prison."
Qin Liang frowned and asked, "Have the people from the School Affairs Office been imprisoned in Tingwei Mansion Prison?" He realized that Wang Kang was also the first day he came to the School Affairs Office, so he looked around again and looked at the soldiers.
The soldiers were all silent. Some were hesitant to speak, but in the end no one said a word. This was a first-level management. After all, Qin Liang had just arrived today. These soldiers mainly listened to Yinci and did not dare to say much.
Wang Kang replied: "It should be so. I don't know what it is and I don't have a chance to ask more."
Qin Liang didn't force it, he just thought to himself: If the emperor is not strong, the school affairs office will not be able to do anything. Logically speaking, it is the school affairs office that wants to get these officials. Now it is better, the people in the school affairs office have been captured by Tingwei.
Caught.
So no matter how powerful Cao Shuang is, he is not the emperor. Think about how many things the school affairs office did to offend people when Emperor Cao Wei was strong. It was like a rat on the street, but the emperor wanted to protect him, and it was useless even if the officials talked about it.
"Let him do his own thing. Let's go first. You have to have lunch when we get back." Qin Liang greeted everyone, then bent down and got into the carriage from the back.
This Yinci, Nima, promised to protect me and made me feel a little fond of me, but it turned out that he wanted to sneak into Tingwei's house and visit the prison.
After closing his eyes and concentrating in the carriage, after another long wait, Qin Liang returned to the school affairs office. He didn't see Yin Mo near the mansion, and he didn't know where the big boss had gone... It seemed that these people had been on duty for a long time.
Free, no matter what I do, I don’t even say hello.
However, Qin Liang also knew that he had little prestige in the school affairs office at this time. Everyone gave him face because of the seal and ribbon hanging on his waist. Qin Liang was not in a hurry and continued to read the slips in the hall. When he saw
The leaders of the school affairs chatted casually for a few words and memorized their names first. As for the origins of the more numerous pawns, he did not have time to understand for the time being.
The big boss Yin Mo should be Cao Shuang's person. It was obvious from what he said in the morning. Apart from Qin Liang, Yin Mo should have the greatest power in the school affairs office. But Cao Shuang should not be very satisfied with this person, mainly because of the results of his work.
question.
At that time in the General's Mansion, Qin Liang remembered Cao Shuang's evaluation very clearly. He had never succeeded in anything, and he failed more than succeeded. He was just a bunch of pigs!
As for who Yinci was before, Qin Liang has not found any signs yet.
