Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 1469
In the second year of Chang'an, early summer.

The imperial capital, Luoyang.

Hao's House in Renhefang, near the Changxia Gate in the south of the city, was originally the other courtyard of Prime Minister Hao Chujun, and now it is the residence of his second son's secretary, Lang Hao Nanrong.

Several carriages painted with the blood shield and golden lion logo slowly stopped in front of the door.

No one in Luoyang knew about the golden family crest on the carriage.Seeing them stop at the door, the gatekeeper hurried up to greet them.

"My lord came to visit Mr. Hao, Secretary Lang, may he be at home?" In front of the carriage, a middle-aged man in a cotton robe said to the door with a smile, and took out a post as he spoke.

Although the Hao family is a little bit down now, but after all, it is also a family where the prime minister of the empire was born, so the door is also literate. The bronzing name sticker took it and opened it respectfully.

Doctor Yinqing Guanglu visited Qin Li, the founding father of Linzi County, Shaoyin of Henan Prefecture, and Qin Li of Shangzhu State.

Bronzing name stickers, the official titles on them are all golden.

As a disciple of an official family in Beijing, especially a disciple of the former prime minister's family, the most important ability is to understand the nobles and senior officials of the capital, and to know how to welcome and send them off.

Dr. Yinqing Guanglu is a third-rank essay official, this rank, this level is already relative and noble, but it is not uncommon in Luoyang.And his job is the Shaoyin of the Henan Prefecture. Now the Tang Dynasty has established the two capitals of the east and the west plus the northern capital of Taiyuan, and the three capitals have the governor and the Shaoyin. The government also has the governor Shaoyin.

The chief of Sandu is the second rank of Fu Mu Cong, the governor of Fu Yin is the third rank, one level higher than the third rank of Shangzhou governor, and Shaoyin is the fourth rank, two ranks lower than the Xiazhou governor.

So Qin Lijian added a line in front of the official, the rank is high and the rank is low, and the line is added.

It is not unusual for Shao Yin of Henan Prefecture, who is from the fourth rank, to be four ranks higher than the third rank.But since this is the Qin family, it's not surprising.

Qin Lijian, one of the two young ministers of Henan Mansion, but he is very dignified on the ground in Dongdu. After all, the most troublesome thing in Dongdu is that his relatives walk around everywhere, and there are many high-ranking officials like dogs. Anyone who causes trouble may be the prime minister or The people of the Duke's family may even be the prince of a certain clan, the county prince's mansion, or the family of the nobles in the palace, and sometimes they may meet the envoys and servants of those vassal states, etc. In short, it is the most complicated place.

But these are nothing in front of Qin Li seeing this young Yin.

Because this man has been fighting in Yunnan and Yue Road for many years, and he was born as a frontier warrior. Moreover, the Qin family was originally the top relative and meritorious official in the Tang Dynasty. The women in power in the palace are all surnamed Qin. The surname is Qin, not to mention from the center to the local area, there are still many disciples and old in-laws of the Qin family.

So if something happened to Qin Lijian, identity really didn't work.

Qin Li is not afraid of encountering some ignorant stubble, for example, there was an adopted son of a lieutenant in the Shence Army in the palace, a very arrogant fifth-rank eunuch, who dared to lead people to ride horses in Tianjie, Qin Li saw to intercept him, That man dared to force his way in.Qin Li saw that his bad guys and yamen servants could not catch up with them. Qin Li saw that he immediately sent someone to deliver a letter to the Jinwu Guard who was in charge of the city defense and security of Jiumen and Sixth Street.

So Qin Jun, General of the Zuo Jinwu Guard, and Qin Jinghui immediately mobilized a team of Jinwu patrol cavalry, set up a card on Sixth Street, and refused to block both ends of the street. I was stopped.

Qin Jun personally shot the man off the horse with an arrow, and then was dragged to the side of the road by Qin Lijian like a dead dog. He was whipped twenty times, and then dragged all the way back to the Henan government office, where he was put in prison. Report to the emperor and ask for punishment.

The emperor sent someone to find Qin Lijian, thinking that this matter should be dealt with in a low-key manner, and that the major issue should be turned into a small matter, but Qin Lijian did not agree. In the end, the chief executives of the two prefectures proposed the death penalty for the fifth-rank eunuch, and the Zuo Shence army The lieutenant went to the Zaizhi to intercede, but he ignored them.

In the end, three days later, Qin Lijian sentenced him to a decisive execution, and he was directly dragged to the vegetable market for execution, without waiting for Qiu Hou to execute him.

Even the team of Shence Army who had their eyes on the eunuch was all dismissed from the military posts by the Privy Council, and they were destined to be exiled to Luzon.

After that, the law and order on the streets of Luoyang, the entire eastern capital, even improved a lot, and the eunuchs and the forbidden army became even more people with their tails between their legs.

Although the eunuchs secretly resented Qin Li for their ruthlessness when they saw Qin Jinghui, the emperor couldn't do anything about it, so what could they do, especially afterward, Gao Fu and Yang Sixuan, the two biggest eunuchs in the palace, went to Qin Li at the same time. Li Jian apologized, and started to rectify the eunuchs, and the matter was over.

Qin Lijian is Henan Shaoyin, who is mainly in charge of public security and justice in Kyoto. Qin Jun and Qin Jinghui are General Zuo Jinwu. Men and Liujie, the two brothers are combined together, they don't eat the soft and the hard, and they are known as the iron-faced double evil.

Those sons of honored relatives, wicked young men, and idlers on the street would all tremble with their legs when they heard the name of Qin Lijian's brother. King Yama was not afraid, but he was afraid of these two ruthless people.

The son of the Hao family was afraid that Qin Lijian would come to find trouble. He also knew that the young man in his family had a conflict with the grandchildren of the Wei Wang family. Although the grandchildren of the Wei Wang family bullied his young man, the Qin family is powerful. .

Swallow saliva.

Menzi looked nervous, "I don't know what happened to Shaoyin?"

"It's a good thing, my Shaoyin is here to secure a matchmaker for your little Lang today, so hurry up and inform your little Lang."

Seeing that he didn't come to find fault, Menzi was relieved and hurried to notify.

After a while, Hao Nanrong and his son Hao Xiangxian hurried out to greet him.

At this time, Qin Lijian also got out of the four-wheeled carriage.

"Should have sent someone to take a post in advance to make an appointment and then come to the door. He came here suddenly and was presumptuous. Please forgive me, Mr. Hao."

Hao Nangong hurriedly crossed his hands to salute, "Shaoyin's presence really makes the humble house shine! Please, please!"

Seeing Qin Li beckoning, the steward behind him instructed to move down the many gifts on the large carts behind, such as exquisite silk, brocade and forged silk yarn, fine cotton cloth, and ginseng, deer and mink fur Waiting for many things, looking at the packaging is extraordinary.

"This is?"

This made Hao Nanrong a little puzzled by Monk Zhang Er. The status of his son was bullied before, and he was angry for a while, so the brothers went to Wei Wang Qin Lun.

"Hao Gong, I will take the place of my four incompetent and ignorant nephews and grandchildren, and I will accompany Hao Gong and his son. It is all because of the lack of discipline in the clan. Now the elder brother, King Wei, has already dealt with them well. Twenty records, lock up the black room for a day and a night, and rush back to Luzon to repent."

Both Hao Nanrong and his father were a little surprised.

"Actually, it's just a kid's joke. Our brothers were a little too petty to make a fuss before. King Wei reprimanded his grandson like this, which made me feel uneasy."

"If you don't mention those little bastards, it's your own fault. If you don't reprimand them well, you don't know how to behave indiscriminately in the future. My uncle Qin Taishi is a veteran of the Six Dynasties. He has always been very strict with his tribe. He is not in Beijing. , It’s because we didn’t discipline our children well.”

"Hao Gong, I'm here today to protect the media and propose marriage. Our Qin and Hao families are already relatives by marriage, and now we want to get married."

Qin Lijian is the son of Qin Yandao and Yuchi Baolin's daughter, the governor of the Yunnan and Yue Dao. He is called Uncle Qin Lang, and Hao Nanrong's father, Hao Chujun, was Qin Lang's student at the time. Jiedu made Qin Xia his wife.

So Qin Xia's cousin, Qin Lijian, was of the same generation as Hao Nanrong, and today he was here on behalf of his cousin, Qin Lun.

"King Wei intends to promise the eleventh mother in the family to your young man Xiangxian. I don't know if Mr. Hao is willing to marry this family, so that the two relatives can become closer?"

In the living room, as soon as the tea was served, Qin Lijian didn't beat around the bush, and directly explained why he came.

He really came to propose marriage. Qin Lun married his daughter to Hao Xiangxian, and Eleven Niang was still born.

This was beyond Hao Nanrong's expectation.

This marriage is of course very good. After all, the Qin family is the number one nobleman in the Tang Dynasty, and Qin Lun is one of Qin Lang's only two legitimate sons. His direct daughter is of course very precious.

"My Xiangxian is just an idiot with a cowardly personality..."

"Don't say that again, Mr. Hao. It was my nephews and grandchildren who were wrong. I think Mr. Hao Xiaolang is actually very talented, and he has a good chance to achieve his grandfather's status in the future."

······
After hearing that Qin Lijian really came to propose marriage, although Hao Nanrong was surprised, it was hard for him to refuse the temptation.Since his father passed away 15 years ago, the Hao family has inevitably weakened, even faster than the Xu family of the mother family. After all, Master Xu Yu is only Xu Shao’s youngest son. Although Xu Yu’s elder brothers did not become prime ministers, they all became governors Those who wait for the third rank are also dukes and marquises.

Master Xu Yu's sons are all governors now, so although the Xu family has no prime minister, there are still many princes and third ranks after all, but their Hao family is weak, and after the death of their father, the two brothers are just There is a big difference between six and seven ranks.

If Hao Xiangxian could marry Qin Lun's direct daughter, then he would marry the queen's aunt. As Qin Lang's grandson-in-law, would he be afraid that he would have no future?
Back then, his father Hao Chujun lost his father when he was ten years old. Later, he passed the imperial examination and became a student of Qin Lang. With Qin Lang's support, his official career was smooth, and finally he became the prime minister of the empire. bit.

"If Mr. Hao doesn't refuse, then do you want to make an appointment for Mr. Hao to take Mr. Lang to Wei Wang's mansion for dinner? You also know that our Qin family has a family style. Although the marriage of children is basically arranged by the parents, the matchmaker However, I have always asked my children for their opinions, and I will arrange a private meeting."

In fact, many aristocrats in Luoyang don't like this tradition of the Qin family. They feel that this kind of thing is not in accordance with the etiquette. How can children decide the marriage of their children.

Although the Qin family is not the master of the children, after all, other families rarely do these things.

"King Wei said, Hao Gong doesn't have to worry. If he doesn't like Eleven Niang, there are still several daughters in his family who are waiting to be married. Xiao Lang can just choose one."

Hao Nanrong understood the implication, and said, "If Shi Niang doesn't like Xiang Xian then, our father and son will also respect Shi Niang's wish."

"It's okay, there are still several unmarried girls of King Wei, and if there is no suitable one, there will be several unmarried girls in my family. As long as Mr. Hao doesn't dislike it, you can let Xiao Lang go to my house to choose."

"Don't dare!" Hao Nanrong said hastily.

"So that's the deal?"

"Thank you for your love, it's a deal."

After the task was completed, Qin Lijian got up to leave, and Hao Nanrong and his son sent them outside the door.

After seeing off the guests, not long after returning home, he received an appointment from the Ministry of Officials and was promoted to Taichang Cheng.

After receiving the letter of appointment, Hao Nanrong was stunned for a long time.

"Congratulations, Aye, you have been promoted to a fifth-rank official position, and silver and scarlet are expensive!" Hao Xiangxian hurriedly rejoiced for his father.

The chief officer of Taichang Temple is Taichangqing, Zuo Er is Shaoqing, and then there are two prime ministers, who are in charge of the daily affairs of the temple. Jiaoshe, Taile, Advocacy, Imperial Physician, Taibu, Yanxi, and various ancestral temples.

There are quite a lot of duties.

What's more, from Secretary Lang of the sixth rank to Tai Changcheng of the fifth rank, there are still several levels in between, especially the threshold from the upper rank of the sixth rank to the lower rank of the fifth rank is very difficult to cross.

The sixth and seventh ranks are green robes, and the fourth and fifth ranks are scarlet robes.

This is a big hurdle, and many officials have been stuck in this for a lifetime.

There is no doubt that this is the handwriting of the Qin family.

It's really eye-catching!
