[There is one more update before twelve o'clock. 】
"At this birthday banquet, Sister Lin's complexion looked a little more rosy. I heard that since I practiced your aerobics, my three meals a day have become a lot sweeter."
"Oh."
"The widowed eldest grandma doesn't know why, but she always hides from me - you don't think she looks down on me, right?"
"Oh."
When he came out of Rongguo Mansion, Sun Shaozong rested on Ruan Rong's lap, thinking about the party that night. Naturally, his nagging to Ruan Rong came in from the left ear and the right ear. .
If you want to talk about things in this world, you really don't know if you don't know what to do!
In the eighth year of Guangde, a total of 127 Wu Jinshi were admitted. It has only been one year and seven months since the list was published, but there have already been many 'capable people': those who embezzled military rations, those who were captured alive by Japanese pirates, and those who provoked the people. Changed, molested women from good families...
After a year and a half, as many as a dozen people were sacked, and four were sentenced to be executed.
Of course, this is not without positive characters. For example, Xu Tai, the second place in the first and second place, became the county magistrate of a county on the southeast coast because he became a civilian. Retired Japanese pirates, killed, wounded and captured 17 real Japanese, more than 100 fake Japanese, and captured three warships.
Xu Tai became famous because of this, and now he has been promoted to the fifth grade Zhizhou, becoming one of the highest officials in the same class [because low-level military positions are really not very valuable, when comparing with civil officials, it is always necessary to subtract first and second class first. Do the calculation again].
However, when it comes to real power, Xu Tai, a prefect state, can only rank second.
It is recognized that the real power is the first, not the champion, not the tanhua, nor the 'magical judgment' of Sun Shaozong, but the ninth second-ranked Zhu Peng - he also transferred to the civil service, and is now serving as the eighth-rank photographer in the Ministry of Household. Grind a job.
If it is only about the official rank, this household is naturally far inferior to Zhizhou.
However, the 'House Ministry Zhaomo Institute' is directly led by the Shangshu, and holds the right to evaluate the merits and demerits of the Ministry of Household and audit the accounts. It can radiate influence to the whole country.
Under normal circumstances, not to mention that it was Wu Jinshi who transferred to the civilian position, even if it was a serious Wen Jinshi, it doesn't matter if you don't want to think about this position.
And the reason why Zhu Peng was able to serve as the Ministry of Household Zhaomo was because he married the only daughter of Wang Guangzu, Minister of Officials, as his wife when he was waiting for an official position. He was favored by the 'Heavenly Official'. minutes
It is also for this reason that most people in the capital do not study martial arts in the same year, and almost all respect this Zhu Peng. Even this so-called same-year gathering was organized by him.
but…
There are rumors that the daughter of the Shangshu used to hang out with the servants on weekdays, and she was already pregnant before she got married, so she had to cancel the original engagement, 'cheap' Zhu Peng, who had no background.
However, Sun Shaozong was pondering whether the official hat on Zhu Zhaomo's head was 'forgiveness', and suddenly his ears were pinched by two slender fingers and rotated ninety degrees without any pain or itching.
"Ouch~ Don't, don't, don't, don't screw it again and it will fall off!"
Sun Shaozong let out an exaggerated cry, raised his head to meet Ruan Rong's dissatisfied eyes, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, how did I offend Madam again?"
"I'm no lady."
Ruan Rong Cherry pouted, but she immediately let go of Sun Shaozong's ear, and poked his finger on his forehead again, and asked, "Then Shijia sister, are you married or not?"
"What Shi family sister?"
Seeing Sun Shaozong's dazed expression, Ruan Rong had to repeat what she just said.
But it turned out that when Lin Daiyu celebrated her birthday at noon, the wife of Zhongjing Hou Shi Ding also came to congratulate her. She heard that there was also Sun Shaozong's aunt, so she specially called Ruan Rong to him, and inquired about a bunch of Sun's residence. Case.
Speaking of this, Ruan Rong said with a little jealousy: "Look at her appearance, ten percent wants to give you her niece!"
Seeing this sour and jealous appearance, Sun Shaozong hurriedly stretched out his hand to embrace Ruan Rong's fragrant shoulders, intending to say a few words of self-esteem to comfort him.
Unexpectedly, before he could open his mouth, Ruan Rong sighed again: "You are going to marry someone in the main room, but Sister Xiangyun looks straightforward and cheerful, if she can marry, it will be much less trouble."
Having said that, Sun Shaozong was really moved. Although the Shi family had no real power, they were also a well-known post in the official circles.
Besides, Shi Jue has a lot of old and old disciples in the military, and now he is also in real power...
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but inquired curiously: "How about Shi Xiangyun? How about Bilian's second sister-in-law?"
"Well..."
Ruan Rong pondered for a moment, then Fang said, "Sister Xiangyun hasn't grown up yet, so she's naturally not as enchanting and charming as the second grandmother, but I can see that she is also a beautiful woman, so she may not..."
"and many more!"
Before Ruan Rong could finish speaking, Sun Shaozong's expression changed, and he tangled: "What does it mean if she didn't grow? How old is she this year?"
"I'm about a few months younger than Daiyu, and she's not yet twelve years old."
I'll go~
Sun Shaozong suddenly felt like a deflated ball. He threw his head back on Ruan Rong's lap, and said weakly, "It's so big, it takes the Year of the Monkey to marry him as a wife?"
"how?"
Ruan Rong pretended to be dissatisfied and asked, "Master is in a hurry to marry his wife?"
"How is that possible! I just..."
Sun Shaozong was about to tell the difference, but suddenly he felt a shock from the carriage and stopped slowly.
Home so soon
While he was in doubt, he heard an arrogant voice from outside: "Is the frame of Brother Shao Zong in front?"
Sun Shaozong lifted the curtain and looked around, but he saw five or six riders standing in front of the carriage. The tall and handsome leader of his life, with a gilt whistle in his hand, sat lazily on the horse, squinting at the carriage, his face full of expression. of arrogance.
What kind of bird is this
Sun Shaozong was frowning at himself, and then he heard the man haha and smirk a few times, and said with a teasing tone: "Brother Shao Zong, the nobles have forgotten things, maybe they don't recognize me Zhu Peng, right?"
Zhu Peng
Sun Shaozong glanced at the big red hairpin on his head, and automatically made his brain pale green. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to press on the carriage, jumped out of the carriage neatly, cupped his hands and smiled, "Brother Zhu is full of riches and honors. Naturally, I don't dare to climb and recognize it indiscriminately - but I don't know if Brother Zhu stopped my frame, what advice would you give me?"
That Zhu Peng stabbed back at the horse, and then got off the horse, and said eloquently: "I can't talk about advice, Brother Sun is today's guest of honor, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to go late, so I This host deliberately came to meet him first - since we happened to meet you on the way, why don't we leave here?"
Coincidentally
Looking at the direction this guy is coming from, you know that you have already been to the Sun Mansion, and then specially waited on this only road, where is the 'coincidence' at all
Right now, before the party starts, there is still a little time left. Sun Shaozong is not interested in accompanying this kind of birdie to the restaurant to warm up.
So he pushed and refused: "Brother Zhu is kind, the brother was supposed to obey, but I still have female dependents in the car, I'm afraid it's inconvenient..."
Who knew that before the words were finished, Zhu Peng blurted out and asked, "The female family in this car is the red-haired concubine that Brother Sun brought back from Qianxiang Country?"
If this is a familiar friend, it would be fine, but how could he ask
Therefore, Sun Shaozong's face suddenly sank, and Zhu Peng also knew that he had made a mistake, but he did not apologize. Instead, he smiled and pointed behind him and said, "Brother Sun can let the female relatives return to the house, I will spare a room here. A good horse, just walk for Brother Sun."
Seeing that this fellow was so entangled, Sun Shaozong was annoyed, and with a sullen face, he walked around him and walked towards the entourage.
One of the health servants hurriedly got off the horse, brought the reins to Sun Shaozong, and said, "Master Sun, you can ride me."
However, Sun Shaozong ignored it, put his hands on the horse's back, and then violently pressed down!
"咴er~!!!"
Then I just heard that Qing Cong Ma neighed miserably, and fell to the ground with its knees bent, unable to straighten its back for a long time!
Sun Shaozong gently pushed again with one hand, and the big black horse next to him moved a few steps laterally, and with a thud, he and his horse fell to the side of the road.
Under the sluggish gazes of his followers, Sun Shaozong turned around and cupped Zhu Peng's hands, smiling: "My body is so tight, Brother Sun is afraid that the horses won't move me, so let me go back to the house and change my mounts. , it's not too late to go to the banquet."
Having said that, he got into the car again and walked away.
Seeing the carriage disappearing at the intersection, Zhu Peng finally came back to his senses, looking at the green horse who still couldn't straighten his back, he couldn't help muttering: "This fellow ate some panacea in Qianxiang Country, or else How can you be so much stronger than two years ago?"
