Guozijian little cook

On the first day back in Beijing, it snowed, but not too much.

However, the next day, the temperature dropped a lot.

In this kind of weather, many people are too lazy to go out.

Xiao Nianzhi was unwilling to move, but she had already returned to the capital.

When I came back yesterday, I could use the excuse that I was tired and not report to work for the time being.

However, if I don’t go today, I will be a bit ignorant.

Therefore, Xiao Nianzhi packed up early in the morning and went to the morning court.

Ok……

This is familiar, eight in the morning in winter!
No, no, no, it's even scarier than early morning.

Sitting in a carriage, walking on the cold winter streets, listening to the howling north wind outside, Xiao Nianzhi thought that she probably understood the resentment of college students and office workers in modern times who go to school as early as eight in the morning in winter.

Is it okay to blame whoever is responsible for this matter?

Her benefits were so good, she was trembling all the way and wanted to go home and lie down!

However, fortunately, I have moved now, to the inner city, and the distance is not too far.

So, holding the hand stove, I finally arrived, trembling all the way.

However, arriving is not the end.

After arriving, they still need to line up and punch in, waiting for His Majesty to be ready, and then they can enter one by one.

The good news is that at Xiao Nianzhi's level, he can barely stay at the tail end of the inner hall without having to be exposed to the cold wind outside.

This made Xiao Nianzhi feel a little less resentful.

Thinking about my welfare benefits again, I feel that I am not incapable of persevering.

Xiao Nianzhi was far away from what he said in the morning, so he actually didn't hear it very clearly.

From time to time, I could hear the officials in front discussing in low voices. It was probably coming from the front, and they were talking casually.

Xiao Nianzhi hugged the hand stove tightly, listened to the movement, and roughly summarized it.

One is the tax issue after the autumn harvest. As the new year is approaching, it’s time to summarize statistics on many things.

In short, it is the end of the year and the household department is very busy.

The official department will also be very busy during the New Year.

Because of the war, the Ministry of War is also very busy this year.

In addition, due to issues such as the promotion of agricultural tools, the Ministry of Industry and the Department of Agricultural Supervision, as well as Shanglinyuan, are also very busy.

It may also be because the New Year is approaching, so case summaries from various places are also submitted to the capital, so the Ministry of Punishment is also busy.

Everyone is busy, how can the Ministry of Etiquette be idle?
Moreover, the Ministry of Rites is responsible for all kinds of sacrificial rituals during the New Year.

……

Anyway, it’s almost Chinese New Year and Liubu is very busy.

Xiao Nianzhi is now also a member of the Ministry of Industry, so he will probably be busy after he comes back, right?

Xiao Nianzhi thought endlessly, but the good news is...

The war in the southwest has stabilized for the time being.

But the Northwest is playing very well now.

After all, winter has come, and the countries on the northwest border are having a hard time, so they want to plunder some resources from the Central Plains and go back to spend the winter.

If we can capture a few cities and come to Maodong in the city, the life may be even more pleasant.

However, General Guo is here, and ordinary people really can't defeat him.

The war in the northwest is intense, and from time to time, news comes that someone has been injured.

As Xiao Nianzhi listened, his heart was still twitching, and he was not sure what was happening to General Guo and Guo Sixue.

We said goodbye last year and the other party didn't come back for the New Year, which was really worrying.

Because General Guo was strict in managing the army, Xiao Nianzhi often wrote a letter to Guo Sixue every two or three months.

This letter still needs to go through several rounds of review before it can be delivered to Guo Sixue.

It would be even more troublesome for the other party to reply to you.

Even though Guo Sixue is the biological daughter of General Guo.

But there are no fathers and sons in the army, and military discipline is everything.

Therefore, her reply had to be reviewed at all levels. In fact, it didn't say much, just some daily routine.The problem is, even so, Guo Sixue usually only replies once every three or four months.

At this time, the last time the two communicated was when he was still in the capital half a year ago.

Thinking of this, Xiao Nianzhi let out another silent sigh.

However, there is not no good news at the border.

For example...

Maybe it was because Gao Guo and Gua Guo were under attack in the southwest and northwest, and they felt that they could do it again. Gua Guo was always provocative and didn't care at all. They wanted to attack them directly.

But Gao Guo's attitude has always been relatively ambiguous.

If you are strong, he will make friends with you, and there is no need to show anything, just an attitude.

Then just pretend that we all have a good relationship, and I won't be too cynical.

But, if you encounter difficulties and get into trouble, and you can't control it in your own backyard, then Gao Guo's attitude will change again.

He was only cautiously testing at first.

However, seeing the flowers blooming in the northwest and southwest, Gao Guo stopped pretending and directly followed Gua Guo to provoke!

The two countries have geographical advantages, but they are not actually easy to fight.

Let's take the route of land warfare. In winter, this place is not very easy to conquer.

Water battle...

Xiao Nianzhi is also not sure how far the warships on Zhendongwei side have been repaired.

Is there ice on the sea?
However, what came from Zhendongwei was all good news.

The latest news came in early October, saying that Governor Zhao was so disturbed that he had gone to war with Gao and Gua.

One versus two, it’s you as expected, Mr. Zhao!

The courtiers are already convinced!
However, dare not say.

Not to mention, that general is not easy to mess with.

He only said that his elder brother and younger brother are still in the capital.

My brother is known as the most powerful talker in the capital. He has power in his hands and can speak well.

If you dare to criticize other people's younger brothers, they will dare to stand up and confront you.

Come on, let’s squirt at each other, see who’s the loudest!

The court official said: It can't be compared, it can't be compared.

As for the younger brother?

Zhao Shangshu seems to be amiable and easy to get along with, but the officials who have actually worked with him in the same dynasty are like a mirror in their hearts.

Is this being friendly and easy to get along with?

This damn smiling tiger!

The problem is, you don’t even know when he stabs you with a smile!

If we talk about the Zhao family uncle, he is the kind of representative from the underworld who will do whatever he refuses to do, and we will just do it head-on.

Well, Mr. Zhao is the kind of person who won't say anything if you don't agree with me, but I will turn around and give you a knife.

Moreover, the stability of the southeastern coast is indeed beneficial to the stability of Dajin's border.

So, let's fight.

If nothing else works, the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War will still have to deal with the problem.

What does it have to do with them?

Hey!
In fact, it is also closed.

The official kiln has recently produced some patterned glass. Not to mention the ladies and girls at home, even rough old men like him can't turn their eyes away from them and don't want to let go.

Should I say it or not, when it comes to your ability to collect money, it has to be you, Your Majesty!
The question is, won’t they pay for it?

No, no, no, put that glass away for me. I'll go home and get the money.

Be sure to keep it for me!

I'm not short of money!

Doesn’t His Majesty just want to make money?
I’ll just give it!
