Xinshun 1730

Chapter 2 Boring
With the wine in his belly, even if he accepted his fate, he also accepted his new identity.

Disciple of honor, as long as you don't commit suicide, you will be safe and secure in this life.After thinking about it, Liu Yu thought of two words...boring.

Is this starting point a bit too high?Except for the members of the royal family, those who have a higher status than their own family are only the Gao family.

After Gao Yigong passed on the throne to Li Laiheng, the Gao family followed the example of the Mu family in the previous dynasty, and lived in Yunnan and Guizhou forever.

If Dashun dies in the future, he will be included in "Aristocratic Family" when compiling history, which is incomparable.For the rest, there were not many Dukes of Danshu Tiequan in the Dashun Dynasty with the title of "Founding Auxiliary Transport".

How do you live such a boring day?Yesterday I was still thinking about whether this month's salary was enough, but today is it boring?

When he was thinking about how to spend this boring life in the future, he heard a rush of footsteps outside.

The door was pushed open, and a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy in black ran in.

"Oh, I found you, Mr. San. Go back quickly. The Duke asked me to come and look for you. It's urgent."

Liu Yu's memory is complete, and he recognized this as his personal servant, so he gave it a strange name "Mantou".I read with myself as a companion, and I am my confidant.

I'm new here, but I still remember the rules.

When it comes to identity, Mantou is a servant and he is the master, but Mantou came to him to pass on his father's words. Liu Yu hurriedly put down his wine glass, stood up, and replied respectfully "yes" to the servant.

This "yes" was a message sent back to his father. Although Mantou is a servant, he can bear it, let alone dodge it.

Everyone in the capital knows that the Duke of Yi is extremely strict in governing the family, and the feudal etiquette is not chaotic at all.

This is Liu Yu's habit since he was a child in the big dye vat of the Duke's Mansion. It has become a habit, and the etiquette under the patriarchal etiquette is strict and complicated.

After finishing this sentence, he resumed his status as master and servant, and Mantou leaned forward and waited for Liu Yu to ask questions.

"I'm in a hurry, what's the matter?"

Liu Yu is not in a hurry, the food in this winery is not as good as that of the chef in the Duke's mansion, but it is much higher than what he used to eat in his previous life, and the glass of rice wine he drank just now is quite good.In his previous life, he was a lively person, just adjusted to his new identity, and was about to brag and drink with these honorable children, but he didn't take it seriously.

Mantou is also a clever man. After following Liu Yu for a long time, he dares to say some things that others dare not say.

Seeing that Liu Yu was still smiling, he said: "My third master, do you still have the heart to smile? The Duke is in a hurry, there must be something important. As soon as the court meeting ended, the Duke asked the younger one to come and look for it. Be sure to do it as soon as possible." The third master also sees that I have been with the third master for so long, so go back quickly. Otherwise, I will be late and I will be reprimanded."

Hearing Mantou's anxious words, Liu Yu couldn't help but thump in his heart.Sending someone to look for him just after the court meeting ended, is this a big deal?
I just feel that life is boring. Is it possible to feel the warmth and coldness of life? Isn’t it the script of the son of the Dream of Red Mansions who suddenly changes and gets ransacked?

Those who were drinking together hurriedly persuaded: "Since the Duke is looking for you, then go back quickly. We are here to have fun, and if we have time later, we will hurry back."

A meal is not worth a lot of money. When a dude like Liu Yu goes out, a servant has already arranged for him to pay the bill.

Thinking of that ominous possibility, Liu Yu lost his mood and could only bow his hands at the crowd and say, "Then I'll go first."

As soon as he came out of the door of Quanliuju, the heat wave outside was mixed with human voices, rushing towards him like a sea tide.

This is the northwest corner of the Forbidden City, which has been a prosperous place since ancient times.Next to it is the Dalongshan Huguo Temple. Emperor Zhengde of the Ming Dynasty liked to put on a vest for himself. He was a duke of the state and a mighty general. country temple.

Now that it has been repaired several times, in order to win over the Mongolians who believe in the Yellow Sect, the emperor of the current dynasty has also given himself the title of a certain Dharma King, and the dharma body is also in this Huguo Temple.

In addition, today is the eighth day of the seventh lunar month, which is the time of the temple fair, and it is really full of people.Coupled with the heat wave of Qiuhu, I can't wait to overturn people.

The boys who accompanied Liu Yu before all went to the temple fair to play, and when they couldn't find anyone for a while, Mantou yelled and cursed: "I know it's a waste of money..."

As he spoke, he brought a big black walking mule from the Shuanmashi, and helped Liu Yu get on the mule, but Mantou himself rode a tall horse.

Liu Yu, the dignified son of the duke, rides a mule instead of a horse at the foot of the imperial city.If someone who knows the goods has seen it, he knows that such a mule can be replaced by seven or eight horses without any problem.

Such mules have to be selected for their physical fitness from birth, and when they grow up a little, they need to be trained.

Only when the mule's hind hooves step on the marks of its front hooves and it walks as steadily as a boat on steady water without any bumps can it be considered qualified.

Walking like a woman's broken steps, riding like a celebrity's chariot, without the bumps of a strong horse, and without the sluggishness of a boat or cart, this can be called a walking mule, and it is difficult to raise it.

At the foot of the imperial city, if you don't pay attention after drinking and run wildly, you will be in trouble.

This walking mule is the most stable, it is difficult to run even if it is whipped, and it will not hurt people violently.

Liu Yu's cheap father is a tortoise, afraid of making a slight mistake, he said all day long that the noble family is most afraid of children and grandchildren getting into trouble, and if the servant lets the master ride a horse in the imperial city, his legs will be broken.

Riding on the mule, Liu Yu got a general impression of his cheap father.

It's just that he is also a hereditary duke, so why be so cautious?
Since I am so careful, it shouldn't be what I thought, and I would enjoy a script of "everything is impermanent, sudden change" after time travel, right?
Thinking of this, I felt relieved, blinked my eyes and looked at the surrounding scenery, and thought that even if something happened at home, just looking at this ancient scenery would be so worth it.

What is love!

A few people in the distance were singing the lotus flower falling at the gate of the temple fair, and they sang with more effort when they reached the peak.

"Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty acted viciously without reason. It is unfair to kill his father and seize power. He deceived his mother and play girl to mourn morality, and his brother and sister-in-law threw away that gang..."

There were quite a few people around, but they were all from the Bailao party. It was a lively scene to watch, but when they wanted to give money, they all dispersed, or urged for another one.

Those who sell cigarette holders, those who sharpen scissors and kitchen knives, those who make sugar candy... The chaotic crowd was crowded.

Fortunately, after passing Longshan Temple, the number of people gradually decreased.An old locust tree planted by the Sanbao eunuch himself cast a large area of ​​shade at the intersection. This street is Sanbao Laodi Hutong, the former residence of the Sanbao eunuch during the Yongle period.

After passing the old pagoda tree, it is the Jiangfang Huanyi Bureau of the former dynasty, where Eunuch Wei's diner died here.It is rumored that the place is very cloudy, and there are not many people on weekdays.

Since it was the place where the Jiangfang Huanyi Bureau of the previous dynasty was located, it must be relying on water.Next to it is Shichahai, and further north is Jishuitan.

Liu Yu's home, Duke Yi's mansion of the Dashun Dynasty, is right next to Jishuitan, and it is considered the best mansion in the capital.

After all, the capital is short of water, unless it is near Jishuitan, there is no way to make a big garden.

It was originally the garden of Xu Yunzhen's mansion, Duke Ding of the former dynasty. After Dashun entered Beijing, Xu Yunzhen was tortured to death.Later, when the capital was restored and the world was settled, Li Laiheng bestowed this place on Liu Yu's ancestor, Liu Tichun, and built the Duke's Mansion of Yiguo.

Because Liu Tichun is Zhang Xianzhong's sworn brother, Sun Kewang, Li Dingguo, Ai Nengqi and others all call him second uncle.

In the end, it was Liu Tichun's great achievement to recruit the Southwest without hurting Yunnan and Guizhou, the king of Jin was not sad, and the king of Qin was not rebellious.

Therefore, the special permission to divert the water from the Yu River around the garden of the Duke's mansion is indeed boundless, and the Yiguo Duke's mansion is even more splendid and magnificent, occupying a huge area.

The mule under his crotch also knew the way. Seeing that he was almost home, his hooves were a little faster than before.Liu Yu, who was riding a mule, couldn't help sighing, thinking that it was a blessing or a curse, but he couldn't escape it after all.

You can already see the gate of your own house here, and you can see a huge clean stone lion from a long distance.

There are three open vermilion doors, and eighteen gorgeously dressed gatekeepers sit on both sides.

The gold-lacquered tin ring of the animal face shows the status of a prince, and it always reminds Liu Yu that Dashun is a feudal dynasty after all, and it still follows the rules of etiquette.

Change the soup but not the medicine.

Rich doors, golden lacquer, eighteen doors, three open doors... This is not something that can be done if you have money. If you don’t have the rank of a prince, setting up three golden lacquer beast rings at Dahongmen is for usurpation, and death is exile for three thousand miles. Go to the Songhua River to guard the border.

And on top of the golden lacquer of the Zhumen, there is an emperor of the ninth five, and that is the most terrifying existence.

In such a huge capital city, except for the bright yellow glazed tiles used in the Forbidden City, the rest of the houses are made of blue-gray tiles. In order to show the wealth and dignity, the millions of people in the capital are used as a backdrop for the green leaves.

Liu Yu has not yet adapted to the life of sitting on the seat of the prince of the state, and his stomach is still full of resentment brought about by what he has learned and thought in his previous life, completely forgetting that his current status is no longer a green leaf to serve as a foil.

Even though they are not the most elite members of the Duke family, they are always qualified to be the petals of Gongwei Rui.

His butt has not yet sat "right", and his stomach is full of rich wine and meat, and his bones are frozen to death.

Thinking about the unpleasant things caused by the brain-hip separation, he entered the mansion through the corner gate, and a servant had already come to take the mule away to feed and wash it.

Sticking the steamed bun in front of Liu Yu, he said in a low voice: "Third Master, the Duke is in the study outside. It's a blessing or a curse. If there is a result, tell the little one earlier, so that the little one won't be worried."

Following Mantou's gaze, what came into view was an open space about twenty or thirty feet long and wide.

Further forward there is a Yimen, which was originally called Huanmen.Later, because of avoiding the taboo of Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Huan took a sentence from "Zuo Zhuan" that "there is prestige but can be feared, which is called prestige, and if there is ceremonies, it can be called ceremonial", and changed Huanmen to Yimen.

Yimen is the gate of etiquette.Foreign guests should stop here, straighten their clothes, straighten their clothes, and then enter the door.

The outer study room is between the Yimen and the main gate. It is usually the place where his father meets low-level guests and staff members. It cannot be placed behind the Yimen where there are female relatives.

The [-]-foot-plus open space is to the east of the family ancestral hall, and to the west is the outer study.

There are some flowers and plants planted on both sides of the open space, which are well taken care of.

In the early cool season, the autumn flowers are in full bloom, reflecting a path paved with fine pebbles, and a few maids are at the door of the outer study.Seeing Liu Yu, he hurried over to meet him and led Liu Yu to the outer study.

The moment he pushed the door open, Liu Yu took a deep breath and said to himself...what the hell.
