As soon as this news came out, the whole court was shocked. They were quite shocked that Emperor Hongde would put such a copper-smelling thing on those Jinshi so unabashedly.
Isn't Emperor Hongde afraid of rebellion by those Jinshi?It is an extremely insulting thing for scholars who even call money a dunwu to be implicated in such a smell of copper and those Jinshi.
But because of Emperor Hongde's previous anger at the court meeting, the ministers in the court did not dare to stroke the tiger's beard, so they had to shut up silently and pretend that there was no such thing.
If Emperor Hongde came to ask them to listen to the money for the honor banquet, it would be over.
So the auction of the felt blankets used by Jinshi, which should have been extremely absurd, went smoothly and strangely with the acquiescence of everyone in the court.
The Jinshi also blindly believed in Emperor Hongde because of his previous kindness.
All the people who entered the venue that day were famous and powerful families, and even some big landlords. In fact, they were not so much landlords as merchants who bought a lot of land. However, because merchants could not take the imperial examination, these original merchants came up with A trick, they bought wasteland, hired people to cultivate it, and called themselves farmers from then on.
Although these farmers are extremely rich, you cannot deny that they are indeed big landlords.
Emperor Hongde also turned a blind eye to these people. After all, it was too harsh to fail the imperial examination just because of business status, and most of the landowners bought were wasteland.However, if some of these landowners are admitted to Juren or even Jinshi, these so-called farmers will tacitly stop their business outside, and live only on the land they bought.
This is already the default thing in the court.
The reason why these peasant families came here today is to get some joy from Jinshi, which also led to the price of the whole auction going up all the way, and even the felt blanket used by the last champion was sold for a sky-high price of 2000 taels.
Emperor Hongde rubbed his eyes in disbelief when he saw the price, five or six cashmere sweaters were only at this price.
But then looking at the nearly 2 taels of funds, Hongde Emperor Le couldn't see his teeth, and then announced in front of the courtiers that the money would be invested in the rest of the examination institute and the holding of the Rong En Banquet. All wool felt will be auctioned in this way to raise funds for holding imperial examinations.
Although the civil servants wanted to call it insulting, they fell silent when they saw the imperial guard's knife and touched their own necks.
Originally, Emperor Hongde thought about distributing the money to the top ten people headed by the number one scholar, but what is unexpected is that these people, regardless of their noble or poor backgrounds, rejected the money.
"The Holy Majesty has a heart of courtesy to us students, and we also have a heart of gratitude to the Holy Majesty." The champion said as a representative.
Now even the emperor was silent, lamenting their character and their gratitude.
"These humble children really didn't expect to have such backbone. I originally gave them the money because I thought it was what they deserved, but I didn't expect that the kindness of dripping water before would be repaid by the spring." Hongde Standing in the Shili Pavilion, the emperor looked at Chu An in front of him and said with emotion.
Chu An will return to the border gate today. Although the weather in the capital is still cold, the border affairs cannot be delayed. The Huns harass the border city almost frequently, so he needs to go back and implement the plan as soon as possible.
Emperor Hongde looked at his immature younger brother in front of him, and when he thought of going to the border to meet the cruel and violent Hun King before his family was safe, he felt sad from his heart.
"It's safe, why don't you stay here. As for your sheep, I'll let Ming servants take good care of them. If you want to raise sheep, Brother Huang will buy you many, many other sheep, okay?" Emperor Hongde looked at Chu An in front of him with a distressed expression and said.
Chu An looked helplessly at Emperor Hongde who seemed about to cry and said, "Brother Emperor, you also know that I must do this."
This sentence is true. To sign a contract with the King of the Huns, one must be of the same level as the King of the Huns. Even though Chu An is not responsible for signing any contract this time, his identity is the reason why he has to go.
It would be fine if Emperor Hongde had no brothers or if his brothers were not trusted, but...
One year before Emperor Hongde ascended the throne, he used the hands of the old emperor to deal with his mischievous brothers one by one, leaving only King An, who was only an 8-year-old child at the time, which led to, if this If King An is not allowed to come forward, it will cause rumors about whether King An has fallen out of favor among the courtiers in the court.
Emperor Hongde wished to revive all the brothers who he had dealt with by the old emperor when he ascended the throne. Although it was very hateful for these brothers to compete with him for the throne, why didn't he think of leaving one or two behind?Anyway, help my family to share some danger safely.
Emperor Hongde struggled for a while, but reluctantly sent Chu An into the carriage.
Commander Xue looked at Wang An's rare soft expression when he bid farewell to His Majesty, and thought in his heart that Wang An was still a child, and it was really hard to leave his family.
But then, as soon as King An put down the curtain of the carriage, he sat directly on the seat and began to study how many sheep were suitable for the Huns' pasture.
Commander Xue: ...Sure enough, it is King An who only has sheep in his heart.
-------------------------------------
Although the footsteps of spring have arrived, the grasslands of the Huns are still cold and windy. If you do not take good protection, the icy cold wind will still blow people to the point of numbness.
The King of the Huns had just finished hunting for the day, and when he returned to the royal court with a team of guards, he saw King Zuo Xian was diligently handling the government affairs of the King's Court of the Huns.
King Zuoxian is the younger brother of the King of the Huns. Because the King of the Huns was too young, he was only 24 this year. His son was still young. In order to stabilize the situation of the King of the Huns, he named his younger brother the King of the Zuoxian. Neither salty nor bland.
Seeing that King Zuo Xian was dealing with affairs, King Xiongnu took a step forward and asked slightly sarcastically: "My dear brother, you are doing these clerical tasks that are as tangled as wool, are your ministers just decorations? "
King Zuoxian was very calm about the things that the King of the Huns often targeted him. After all, the power in his hands prevented the King of the Huns from acting rashly on him, so he could only say these few words in a neutral manner.
King Zuo Xian said to King Xiongnu: "My good brother, you should at least read these documents. Although I know that these words are more dazzling to you than the stars in the sky, but my good brother, you are alone. Yu, a Shanyu, a king, doesn't even understand the country's government affairs, and even those Jurchens who eat raw meat will laugh at us when they talk about it."
The Hun King's chest heaved violently in anger, and he was about to make a move, but at this moment, a voice of notification came from outside the king's tent.
"Report to Shan Yu! The emperor of the Central Plains has sent an invitation card!" The minister held a post respectfully, walked up to the King of Xiongnu and handed the post to the King of Xiongnu with both hands.
King Xiongnu opened the invitation and was dazzled by the complicated traditional characters on it. He quickly closed it and threw it to King Zuo Xian. ?”
The tone of the Hun King who said this was sarcasm. He knew how tough the Central Plains people were, just like their city walls.
The courtier lowered his head and said respectfully: "That's not true, Shan Yu, this time the people from the Central Plains sent this document to invite you to talk about the trade between the tribe and the Central Plains. Knowing that there is absolutely no possibility of an ambush in that place."
King Zuo Xian opened the invitation and looked through it, looking at the polite words on the invitation, but the more he thought about it, the more something went wrong.
"Aksu, I advise you not to go this time. It is most likely a conspiracy of the Central Plains people. You also know that these insidious Central Plains people are simply blessed in terms of playing with their minds. They even wrote a book to summarize it. These schemings." King Zuo Xian warned, but apparently King Xiongnu didn't listen.
The King of the Xiongnu had been to the place mentioned by his courtiers, and it was indeed a place where he could not even do an ambush. Moreover, the hunting ground was a very suitable place for the Huns to charge the cavalry. If he is afraid that the Central Plains people set up an ambush and does not go, the entire Xiongnu court will look down on him.
He has only been on the throne for a year or two, and his position is still not very stable. He is anxious to make some achievements to add to his throne, besides...
King Xiongnu looked at King Zuo Xian who was a little angry because he didn't listen to the advice, as if he wanted to say something.
I still have such a younger brother who is eyeing me.
Zuo Xianwang knew that he could not persuade the Xiongnu King who had made up his mind, so he said to the Xiongnu King: "Then go to the hunting ground this time, and I will go with you. If the Central Plains people have any conspiracy, I should be able to see through it."
The Xiongnu King smiled and said, "My dear brother, thank you for your concern. This time I will go to discuss with the Central Plains people, and I will definitely take you, the number one wise man of our tribe, with me."
The King of the Huns had a hearty look on his face. He patted King Zuoxian and kept calling him a good brother. Immediately gloomy, he said to the courtier next to him: "Keep an eye on King Zuo Xian, if there is anything he shouldn't do, report it to me immediately."
-------------------------------------
At this time, Chu An didn't know that he sent a document, which could arouse the Hun King's suspicion of Zuo Xian King, and he was checking the layout of the hunting ground.
In addition to the etiquette and facilities that must conform to the etiquette level of the princes and nobles, the water and snacks used in the reception must also be made from scratch. After all, if the standard hospitality level is followed, there is no place in the entire banquet that can show the characteristics of the Central Plains.
Although Chu An did not intervene in the signing of the contract, he planned to make the banquet of signing the contract a place to show the characteristics of the Central Plains to the Huns, so as to ensure that the Huns would be hooked because they were greedy for supplies and help them raise sheep. For this reason, all the waiters put on sweaters, and Commander Xue, who would accompany Chu An that day, was even given a new-style cashmere sweater by Chu An.
Commander Xue had no choice but to change into the cashmere sweater under the booing of the people around him. When Commander Xue came out, there was no sound from the surrounding people.
He asked with a slightly flushed face, "Is this cashmere sweater not suitable for my lord?"
Chu An shook his head slowly, glanced at the maids who were staring at Commander Xue and said, "It's suitable, it's very suitable."
