Tao Bao's Ancient Happy Life

In a blink of an eye, the three-day annual leave passed. Tao Bao and Huo Jianhui went to the court meeting early in the morning. This was his first day to attend the court meeting, and he was quite excited. If it was in modern times, he would be directly participating in politics Bureau | Standing Committee!

The court meeting of the Tianyao Dynasty will be held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. When Tao Bao arrived, it was almost five o'clock. Huo Jianhui smiled and took out the handkerchief he had prepared in advance, and carefully wiped the person's hands. After eating some snacks on the way, he kissed the corner of Tao Bao's mouth with his lips after wiping it clean.

Tao Bao blushed a little. This person is becoming more and more careful, which made him feel warm in his heart. It is also good to have such a person by his side to finish his life.

After the two got off the imperial chariot, Huo Jianhui helped Tao Bao smooth the wrinkles of the official uniform, then straightened the official hat, and then led the man's hand into the inner hall. Tao Bao looked down at the hands of the two men and said : "Do I need an Xiuchun knife?"

Huo Jianhui raised the corner of his mouth: "That thing is too heavy, you might as well forget it."

Tao Bao... Is this being despised? . . .

After the two entered the main hall, they saw many officials standing on the left and right, the first row of Wen and the second row of Wu, and they were all looking at the hands they were holding.

Tao Bao was a little embarrassed, so he wanted to pull his hand out. Unexpectedly, Huo Jianhui was holding it so tightly, and he didn't intend to let go at all. He directly took his hand and came to the first row of generals, standing in the first row. Tao Baojue himself is a second-rank official, so he shouldn't be standing here. Unexpectedly, Huo Jianhui said: "You are standing here, and you still have the title of Prince Zhengjun."

Tao Bao let out an "oh", feeling that he was a person with double titles, and then stood there obediently.The military generals behind him were all rough and rough, and they didn't have any opinion. They thought it was nothing, especially when the brothers looked at him with a sense of humor, Tao Bao glared at them.

After a while, the old man Li Yuan came to the morning meeting accompanied by the Li family masters. Tao Bao asked in a low voice, "Grandpa is so old, and he still has to go to the morning court?"

Huo Jianhui said in a low voice: "Well, today is the first morning meeting of the new year, you must be there, and grandpa knows that you will be in trouble for the first time today, so he is here to support you."

. . .Am I that weak? . . .

No matter what you think, everyone stands in order anyway, and a eunuch has already moved two grand master chairs over, and carefully placed the cushions. This was prepared in advance for the old man Li Yuan. Standing behind Tao Bao, no matter what, the whole family is the real relatives of the emperor, uncle Guo, General Zhenguo and General Mighty, which most people would not dare to touch.

At this time, before Huo Xiaotian went to court, Tao Bao began to observe the civil servants on the left, and saw Zhang Dongliang, the prime minister of the left, standing in the front. Tao Bao couldn't help but look at this one of the most trusted civil servants of the emperor. He slandered: "Isn't this the second lady's father?"

Tao Bao also knew the few people standing behind. There is the sixth wife, Wang Xinping's father, the right minister, Wang Wei. Okay, the two prime ministers of Tianyao have become Huo Jianhui's ex-father-in-law. These people don't know why I thought, a good girl didn't find a good family, but she gave it to Huo Jianhui, who couldn't be around, it was really a crime!Looking back at the rest, I went to look at my own eyes one by one. What does that mean?Are you going to eat yourself?There is really someone who is not afraid of death!

Huo Jianhui didn't stand in line well with Tao Bao, and looking around there, he thought it was the first day that this person had gone to court, so he looked back from time to time, and followed his gaze to see those people's attitude toward Tao Bao. Bao's unkind eyes made his face darken?The whole body is shrouded in low air pressure.

Feeling the cold air surrounding him, Tao Bao pulled Huo Jianhui's lapel with his hands, then shook his head: "I'm fine, don't worry, I'm going to let them know what happened to me today."

The few brothers behind him also followed Huo Jianhui's eyes to look at the team of civil servants on one side. People who dare not even kill a chicken, how are they pretending, who doesn't know how heavy they are!Just wait to be cleaned up in the future.

At this time, a eunuch sang loudly: "Your Majesty is here, and all the officials kneel to welcome Huo Xiaotian." All the officials knelt to welcome Huo Xiaotian's arrival. This time he came not by himself, but behind him were Xiangyang King Huo Jingyu and Taiping Marquis Tao Ruilin.

Huo Xiaotian ascended to the dragon chair and stood in front of the dragon chair, waving his hands, "Everyone is flat." Then he sat on the dragon chair, and waited for the people who followed him to stand in line, so that he could make an announcement.

According to the old rules, the king of Xiangyang sat on the grand teacher's chair next to Li Yuan, while Huo Jianlin stood behind the masters of the Li family. In terms of credit, he was really incomparable with the Li family, even though he was the eldest son , but Tianyao practiced rewarding meritorious deeds, not comparing who is the royal family or something.

Tao Ruilin is also a third-rank Lord Marquis. Under Fu Hai's personal guidance, he directly stood in the row of civil servants, and behind the six ministers. This surprised these people, but no one said anything. After all, he is not only a Marquis Lord, he may be a grand master in the future, and he has a good son!

After everyone stood up, Huo Xiaotian glanced down, and saw Tao Bao standing behind Huo Jianhui wearing a veil, he shook his head, the daughter-in-law is married to his son here, why is he still wearing a veil!Not uncomfortable?But I didn't have the nerve to say it, and then said: "Today is our Tianyao's first court meeting in three years. In this new year, everyone should do a good job. Don't let me worry about it. Life will be better." It means that I am good to everyone, and I am not good to anyone.

Tao Bao nodded and said in a low voice, "It's the truth."

As soon as Tao Bao finished speaking, the corners of Huo Jianhui's mouth twitched when he heard it, and the brothers behind him, who had practiced martial arts since childhood, had very good ears, and grinned but didn't If you dare to laugh out loud, you are afraid that those civil servants will find the little feet and read them a copy. No one wants to find that bad luck during the Chinese New Year.

Huo Jianhui and the younger ones, Huo Xiaotian had seen the small movements there a long time ago, but he turned a blind eye and closed his eyes and didn't take it seriously. Towards." Then he glanced at Huo Jianhui.

Huo Jianhui immediately stood up, "Father, emperor, son, minister, have this to play."

Huo Xiaotian nodded: "Well, what's the matter!"

Huo Jianhui passed the memorial in his hand to the top of his head with both hands: "I think Tianyao should also set up a business department to take charge of Tianyao's trade with other countries."

Listen to the civil servants below, Ministry of Commerce?What department is that?

Huo Xiaotian took the memorial from Fu Hai, took a look at it, and put it down: "Tell me about it."

Huo Jianhui cupped his fists: "Father, this is a joint discussion between my son and Commander Tao, please tell Commander Tao." After speaking, he stood aside.

After Tao Bao heard this, he knew that it was Huo Jianhui's intention to support him and let him show his face in front of all the officials. He took a step to the left, cupped his fists and said, "Father, my son is absolutely right, our Tianyao has just established a country and can't do it." In three years, we will be in a period of waste. In order to increase the income of the people in our dynasty, we should actively encourage the people to do business to increase the income of the people. At the same time, we should increase the amount of overseas trade, open mutual markets, and trade with grassland border residents. This will solve the harassing of the grassland tribes on the frontier because of survival problems, and will bring many benefits. Of course, these will also bring some trade frictions. At this time, the Ministry of Commerce needs to come out to help merchants solve the problem.

As an institution directly under the state, the Ministry of Commerce has the obligation to protect the country's trade for merchants, and protect all the interests of merchants on the premise of national interests. In this way, merchants will pay more taxes to the country when they have a good income. , the national treasury will be more full, and it will not be time to spend money and have no money to take. "After speaking, step aside.

The performance of the people present was different, some were contemplating, while others were contemptuous. For these people, merchants have always been looked down upon since ancient times. As a profession, merchants are used to exchange materials. This time, the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce is proposed, through the country’s recognition of merchants, and then to improve the status of merchants. Among the personal assets of these dignitaries, there are few shops. Seeing such a Opportunity, there is no objection, and only those poor officials with no shops will have some sour thoughts, but they will not show it. Officials have no right to speak, and no one wants to offend the powerful. it is true.

Seeing that there was no objection, Huo Jianhui waved his hand: "Declaration."

Fu Hai took out the imperial decree prepared in advance, "We are waiting for the decree in Taiping."

Tao Ruilin walked to the center of the hall and knelt down, and Fu Hai began to read: "By God, the emperor said: Since the founding of the country, I have led all the officials to strive for strength, and now I want to establish a business department to solve the troubles encountered by merchants in doing business. Marquis Taiping was born as a businessman, and he is very familiar with this side, and now he is entrusted with the title of Shangshu of the Ministry of Commerce to manage all the affairs of the Ministry of Commerce, thank you for this."

Tao Ruilin shouted: "Minister, accept the decree, long live, long live, long live." He took the imperial decree from Fu Hai with both hands, stood up and stepped aside.

Fu Hai returned to stand beside Huo Xiaotian, and heard Huo Xiaotian wave his hand: "Xuan."

Fu Hai took out another imperial decree from the eunuch's tray behind him and began to read: "Deng Zi'an, the editor of the Imperial Academy, received the decree."

Deng Zian tidied up his robes when he heard this, walked to the center of the hall and knelt down, and then Fu Hai began to read: "By God, the emperor said:..." Barabara read it suddenly, in short That is, Deng Zian was promoted now, and went to Beizhen Fusi as a co-prefect to assist Tao Bao in managing some things.

After Deng Zian thanked him, he stepped aside. He is now a third-rank official. He is already very powerful for him who is only 17 years old. He was the champion of the new department last year, and it is impossible not to envy him. This can be regarded as a civil servant who has suddenly changed his career to become a military officer, and his current position is suddenly standing next to Gao Jinghong.

Gao Jinghong is the happiest one. He was so happy that he didn't sleep well all night when he heard about the relationship between the two of them yesterday. Today, he was able to stand with his family, Xiao Anzi, in court. Not to mention the joy , I couldn't be too happy, taking advantage of the big cuffs of the official uniform, I secretly touched Xiao Anzi's hand.

When Deng Zian saw that this person touched his hand, he felt bad all of a sudden. The emperor's crime of disrespect is not good, he hastily glared at Gao Jinghong, and then shook his hand away.

Tao Bao here saw that his father had successfully become the Shangshu of the Ministry of Commerce, so he stood up obediently, and he didn't say a word after the court meeting was over.

Huo Jianhui didn't say a word, he honestly watched these ministers report to Huo Xiaotian the preparations since the beginning of the year, he just looked at the minister of the Ministry of Industry across the way, and sneered in his heart that the person pretending to be like a dog, he His eyes looked coldly, as if seeing a dead person.

Seeing Huo Jianhui's eyes, Tao Bao didn't say anything. He and Huo Jianhui are now grasshoppers on the same rope. The two of them are one. They still have children to raise. At this time, these moths can't ruin Tianyao Only by eliminating these people can Tianyao develop and grow, and their family can have a good life.

After the meeting was over, Tao Bao talked for a while with the rest of his brothers who hadn't left, and Huo Jianhui accompanied him to Beizhen Fusi to take up his post. Today he wanted to give him a strong face, and of course there was a team of ordinary people going with him. soldiers, but they all carry an ordinary box on their backs, and I don’t know what’s inside.

Deng Zian went back to the Hanlin Academy to pack his things. In fact, there was nothing to clean up. It was nothing more than some books. Then he said goodbye to a few good colleagues. I'm quite happy to think about it, it's better than being left out here. Although these people don't dare to give him face on the surface, who can guarantee that no one will trip him up behind him? But it's Huo Jianhui's territory, working under the elder brother's errand, I feel at ease.

When Deng Zian arrived at Beizhen Fusi, he saw that his brothers were already waiting for him there. Gao Jinghong handed him the official uniform he had prepared in advance and asked him to change into it, and then he and his brothers Talk and drink tea.

Huo Jianhui looked at his brothers and said: "We are going to make a big one this time, please help me find out who is behind Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, if there is a big fish, I will catch it. Stay, Tianyao is the future of our elder brothers, and cannot be ruined by these old guys."

Xiaoyao Wang Song Zishan nodded: "This group of old guys can betray their old master, but I can't guarantee that they won't stab us in the back. Originally, we could let them go, but they don't want to live for themselves. If you want to make money, then don’t blame us.”

Tao Bao didn't say anything, he just watched these people studying the future. Originally, he thought that the founding emperors in history didn't have any good things. Lord, but from today's situation in Tianyao, it is impossible to do this. If they don't deal with these people earlier, those old guys will rely on the old to sell the old and make progress. It seems that it is time to act first.

After the layout of the court center was completed, Huo Jianhui said to the Li family brothers who had just rushed over: "The two cousins ​​are going to trouble the big guy at the Ministry of War. We have to hurry up on the training of soldiers, and see if there is any wrong idea." Yes, if someone rebels, stop it when it is done, without leaving any future troubles, and feel that you can't tolerate it. Now is not the time to go to the battlefield with a big knife, and the arsenal must also keep an eye on it. New weapons must not be leaked out. , after we rectify these chaotic incidents in the court, it is time to show some color to those Japanese pirates who are staring at us."

Zhang Qiurui looked at the big guy and said: "It's time for this person to spit out what he ate. They have made a lot of money in the past few years. By the way, didn't they catch a few playboys from Beijing yesterday? What? Is no one coming to find someone? If someone finds it, they can just embezzle some money, and then use this part of the money to repair the places where floods frequently occur, and save them from having money and no place to put it, and it’s better to leave it at home.”

Tao Bao listened to this man's words, and complained in his heart: "I'm going to say who is the worst, this guy wants to be the second and no one dares to be the first, what a talent!"The perfect candidate for the prime minister! '

Sun Zheng sorted out all the people that the minister of the Ministry of Industry had been in contact with these days, and then said: "He has closed the door to thank guests these days, and it seems that he feels that something is wrong, and what happened in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion last night. His son, Jin Huaiyu, and Jin Shan's wife went to Jin Shan early this morning to make a fuss, and it is said that he is crying, making trouble, and hanging himself now."

Huo Jianhui smiled: "Then wait for him to come to the door. Baoer will be left to you and Zi'an. By the way, don't get tired. It is also very important to rectify Beizhen Fusi."

Tao Bao and Deng Zian nodded, it seems that this place is not so easy to stay, such a big yamen, you can't just watch the excitement, you have to do something to make those big mouthers shut up.

Then a few people left, Tao Bao and Deng Zian started to draw up a plan as soon as they discussed it, and started to work vigorously. All of a sudden, the North Town Fusi was in a hurry, and the two left the Beizhen Fusi to eat idle food and quit. It's business, everyone who was still paid was laid off, and those who had connections were very dissatisfied, and then they went to the emperor to file a complaint. Unexpectedly, Huo Xiaotian scolded him directly, and wanted to get paid if he didn't work. , Go home and eat by yourself, just send it away, and then suddenly scare those people who have no money to take, and leave in desperation.But after a few days, I became honest and quiet all of a sudden.

At this time, Jin Shan, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, who had been dormant for many days, also came. . . . . .
