Ding Tian's Ancient Life

Ding Tian received the reward when he was in the second year of junior high school. The reward list came out on the night of the first day of junior high school, and the people from the House of Internal Affairs of the second junior high school came to the door with gifts.

Accompanying him was a young eunuch from the palace.

"Little Xiaoxiaozi is the apprentice of Chief Mi Yingda. My master said, let Xiaoxiao come to announce the emperor's oral instructions. You just need to stand and listen. The rewards for you are the best!" Yonago has no airs at all, the one who smiles at Ding Tian is called a bright sunshine.

"Then I'll trouble you..." Ding Tian looked at these things, a little dizzy: "Is it all for me?"

"Of course!" Xiaomi said, "This is the emperor's reward, you can use it openly."

Ding Tian didn't quite understand what it meant at first, but later he realized that this is really... so generous, the reward, the smile on Ding Tian's face has never been down!

Simply wonderful!

The emperor's oral order is very simple, it is to praise him for his serious work, meticulous work, loyalty to the emperor and the country, and the things he sent are also novelty, the ice skin snacks are really delicious, and the money tree is rare, etc. In short, it is just a compliment his words.

Then there are the rewards: a pair of gold Ruyi, a pair of jade Ruyi, two pairs of silver Ruyi, two pairs of suet jade pendants, two sapphire jade pendants, a jade ornament, a BMW from the north of Saibei, and ten tribute satins from the south of the Yangtze River. [-] pieces of tribute silk, [-] pieces of batik printed muslin cloth from the southwest, [-] pieces of blue-dyed plain cotton cloth, [-] meat sheep, [-] meat pigs, [-] beef cattle, and [-] broiler chickens from the north. Twenty meaty ducks and ten meaty birds.

The last big thing is to reward Captain Yunqi Ding Tian with 900 taels of gold, 9000 taels of silver, and two boxes of brand new copper coins... It is estimated that there will be three to five million copper coins.

"Actually, the emperor said casually at the time that he would reward you with a hundred taels of gold and a thousand taels of silver. My master thought, 900 taels of gold is also a hundred taels of gold, isn't it? 9000 taels of silver is also a thousand taels of silver, right?" Xiaomi smiled. Said: "So I reward you with this number!"

Ding Tian grinned almost to the back of his ears: "This...isn't it taking advantage of the emperor too much?"

Xiao Xiaozi suddenly became happier: "You don't know, the emperor's money is much older, and the old man didn't even count it himself.

More rewards and less, isn't it just a matter for the people below to let go. "

"That's fine, then I'll thank Manager Mi Ying!" Ding Tian knew that this was a little benefit that Mi Ying had won for him, and he was very grateful, but he didn't dare to give money, because Wang Zuo said, Some taboos, so he quickly grabbed a snack box for Xiaomi: "This is for you to eat! Ice skin snacks, delicious!"

Then he tore a pouch from himself and stuffed it into him: "Take it and play with it, there are two pearls the size of longan eyes inside."

Instead, another thing came out: "Please bring this to Chief Mi Ying."

It was a thick eiderdown quilt, something Ding Tian liked, so naturally, he wanted to bring some to his friends, and it was wrapped with two pairs of knee pads.

Thanks to watching TV dramas in ancient costumes before, he remembered that in the palace, he could do big gifts at every turn, kneeling and kowtowing was extremely quick.

I don't know if Mi Ying is also like this in it?

"Hey, okay!" Xiaomi was happy.

He returned to the palace with his things in a mighty manner.

Before entering the palace, everything brought back was inspected. In fact, it was all down and the like, but it was not embarrassing and let it go.

He went directly to Qianqing Palace, because he was the servant of the imperial court.

Seeing Mi Ying, he called his master first, and Mi Ying looked at him: "Let's go, follow your master and me, and go to see the emperor."

"Yes, master." Xiaomizi bowed his head and followed behind his master. When he saw the emperor in the imperial study, he didn't dare to lift his head.

"How about that person? Learn from the beginning to the end." Emperor Yongqing was taking a nap. After waking up, he saw the pair of master and apprentice. Naturally, he thought of asking.

Xiao Xiaozi said it again without daring to change a single word, even saying what he himself said about "the emperor's money, it's much older".

When Emperor Yongqing heard him say that Ding Tian felt that he had taken advantage of the emperor, he seemed a little uneasy, so he nodded: "Well, he is an honest person."

When Xiaomi finished his study, he knelt there and did not move.

Emperor Yongqing thought for a while, then looked at Mi Ying: "Do you have friendship with that person?"

"A little bit, not too much, but he is an honest person. A person like Numaid, it's not too much for someone to look at him. He is one of them. Moreover, the small vegetable shop opened by Numai's brother's house, the spicy cabbage is what he told Numai. I heard that this dish is popular among the army in the Northeast, and he is a man who does not hide his secrets." Mi Ying smiled very proudly: "Do slaves have friends too!"

Emperor Yongqing laughed and cursed: "If you are short of friends, tell me tomorrow, all civil and military men in the court will have to step on the threshold of your house!" Mi Ying was even happier: "Then the slaves have to give them lucky money?"

It made Emperor Yongqing even more amused: "Then I will pay you half!"

Talking and laughing, Emperor Yongqing closed his eyes, and tapped lightly on the armrest of the couch: "Let Xiaomi go down, and reward him with two taels of gold. There are a lot of things in my warehouse, um, Said it right!"

"Thank you, Lord Long En!" Xiao Xiaozi happily went down, this errand was considered complete.

Emperor Yongqing, on the other hand, said again after a long while: "Send eight more people over there, under the leadership of Lu Yan and Yu Fei, and divide them into two teams. Four people will accompany them for protection, and one person will inform them. You must be careful about them."

"Your Majesty, won't this be too conspicuous?" Mi Ying asked carefully from the side: "What if someone notices...?"

"Don't be afraid, there are only ten people." Emperor Yongqing waved his hand: "Let's do it, pick someone with good skills, preferably with some experience in protecting people!"

"Follow the order." Mi Ying went to do it.

Emperor Yongqing was left sitting quietly in the imperial study for a long time...

Ding Tian didn't know that he had been noticed by his superiors. Now that he was rewarded, he was almost going crazy with joy!

Unfortunately, within two days of being happy, on the fourth day of junior high school, the three brothers of the Zheng family came to celebrate the New Year!

Years ago, they gave Ding Tian a new year gift, and Ding Tian gave him a richer gift in return. The gifts they gave were very unique, and they were all good medicinal materials in Beijing.

As for Ding Tian's gift in return, he needs to be careful. After all, he is an elder, so the silver nude he gave is the style of "Eight Treasures in Spring", "Wonderful Pen and Flowers".

This time they came, not only came by themselves, but also brought the children. Of course, they did not bring the female relatives, because they knew that this little uncle was not married yet, and the female relatives could not entertain them.

The children of several people are all older children, and there are no younger ones. When they come, they will pay New Year's greetings and say auspicious words. Ding Tian hurriedly has a new year's purse for each of them, and asks someone to send snacks.

While eating, Zheng Chen, one of the three brothers of the Zheng family, was surprised: "Is this ice-skin dim sum?"

"Yes!" Ding Tian said, "Have you eaten?"

"At the New Year's banquet in the palace this year, this is what we ate, I've never seen it before!" Zheng Chen said: "The color is beautiful.

It's good to eat, unlike other snacks, it doesn't taste good when it's cold, or you get tired after it's hot, this is a clever idea, and it has color!

"

Ding Tian was immediately proud: "This is indeed from my family, and it's also lazy and doesn't like to move, and it doesn't cost much to do snacks like this."

thing……. "

Isn't ice skin easy!

Everyone ate happily, and the housekeeper lady made some fruit tea over, but no tea was brought over because there were a few children here, and it was not suitable for drinking tea.

Ding Tian kept them for another lunch.

The three brothers of the Zheng family were quite surprised when they saw the food on the table, because the food of this little uncle's family is not much in the whole capital.

see.

The staple food is naturally dumplings, which are dumplings made of chive and yellow beef.

Braised pork knuckle, steamed fish, lettuce with mushrooms, spinach with nuts, Chinese cabbage with vinegar pepper and black fungus mixed with shallots, and the soup is pigeon soup.Although it is a simple six dishes, one soup and one staple food, the portion is large, especially four of the dishes are green vegetables, and even the dumpling stuffing is very unique.

This is a little surprising.

During the Chinese New Year, the food is very oily, and the Zheng family brothers are quite satisfied with these few dishes.

After they left, Wang Fugui came back and brought some snacks to Ding Tian: "My lord said that these two snacks are good, I'll give you some

Dragon Fight One"

No clothes〇

"What snacks?" Ding Tian grabbed the side of the food box and looked inside.

"It's crab cakes and fried spring rolls, but the stuffing of these spring rolls is not red bean paste, but carrots and shredded cabbage, I think you like them." Wang Fugui put down the food box and looked at him eagerly: "What do you want to give the prince?" ?”

Ding Tian had already gotten used to it, so he waved his hand: "Give him the three-color ice-skin dim sum. The stuffing is a bit tacky. It's red bean paste, jujube paste and meat paste, but I can guarantee that he will definitely like it."

Wang Fugui thought for a while, then nodded: "Alright then!"

The current cook in Ding Tian’s family is a skillful one. The stuffing of dim sum is not so sweet, but has the unique aroma of bean paste and the unique sweet and sour smell of jujube paste. The meat paste is made of chicken paste, which has been cooked for a long time s things.

After asking Wang Fugui to take it back, sure enough, Wang Zuo was very satisfied with the food.

And Ding Tian was very curious about the crab cake sent by Wang Zuo. It seems that this thing came from the TV series he watched?

The two gave each other snacks and started to get busy again.

Ding Tian has no friends in Beijing, but he has subordinates in Beijing!

The fourth and fifth days are inconvenient, but starting from the sixth day, first Wang Kui, Hai Ning and Tie Qingnian come one by one, after the three of them have come, and on the tenth day, Boss She and the others come...

Working until the night of the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Ding Tian didn't see any guests anymore. Ding Tian deeply felt that he was simply very popular.

On the night of the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Wang Zuo came!

"Very busy these two days?" There were traces of cleaning everywhere in the yard, and Old Butler Wang looked exhausted.

"Welcome to send... just sit for a day." Ding Tian also had a little backache, mainly because his mouth was about to blister when he said it.

Talking to his subordinates is all about work, and he also wants to educate through labor reform, which must have a good start.

Each of the several subordinates had some suggestions, but after he thought about it at night, he felt that it was all fake. Did he look down on his proposal, or did he find it difficult to implement?

"Did you go to your boss?" Wang Zuo frowned: "The current minister of the Ministry of Punishment will retire after the new year, and the competition between the left and right ministers for this position is very fierce!"

"Ah?" Who knows, it's okay if he didn't say it, but when he said it, Ding Tian had a "finished" expression on his face!

"What's wrong with you?" Wang Zuo touched his face: "Did you forget something? Or...?"

"Then what, I forgot to go to Shangguan's house to pay New Year's greetings..." Ding Tian was almost ashamed, why did he forget to go to his boss's house?

After hearing what he said, Wang Zuo really sighed: "You are so stupid!"

Why is the heart so big?

"I don't want to either..." Ding Tian was about to cry.

This kind of ancient society paid attention to "reciprocity".

As a result, in his first new year in Beijing, he successfully offended all his bosses.

Although he was in the Ministry of Punishment, his superiors, Yuan Wai Lang, Zuo Shi Lang, and Shang Shu needed him to be respectful, but the others were either on the same level as him or lower than him.

Years ago, he was busy all the time. Although the old housekeeper reminded him and gave him a New Year's gift, this gift-giving is different from visiting the house to pay New Year's greetings.

"Forget it, it's nothing. You gave all the annual presents and received them in return. It's not considered rude." Wang Zuo stroked his dog's head: "Let's go, tomorrow is the fifteenth day, let's go see the lanterns together!"
