It is not easy to live in Chang'an.
In such a big Chang'an City, although those officials of seven or eight or nine grades have official positions and various subsidies given by the court, most of them live in a tight life.
After all, although their income is not low, their expenditure is also higher than that of ordinary people.
It is also a necessary social activity to go to pingkangfang to drink and meet friends with colleagues every three or five times. In addition, the family, servants and the expenses of renting and buying houses in the government. In a word, most of these low-grade officials have the same days as the small middle class in later generations.
The appearance is beautiful, but in fact, we can't be extravagant. We must live a careful life.
In terms of transportation, before Li forgot to worry about getting out of the public carriage, raising a horse in these officials' houses was also a big expenditure.
Even if there are horses, the relatives in the house can only borrow mules or donkeys from the neighbors. If they are in trouble, they will spend some money to rent a carriage or ox cart.
When the public carriage in Chang'an city changed from a novelty to a common means of transportation, many low-grade officials in Chang'an city chose public carriage when they went out.
There are not a few officials who wear light green and light cyan official clothes and take carriages.
In this regard, the people in Chang'an city are also used to it. Seeing these officials get on the bus, the most they can do is to get up and give up a seat, bow their hands and say hello.
In the morning of Chang'an City, the doors of each square were opened.
Liu Qing, Xie lvlang of Taichang temple, who lives in Zhaoguo square in the west of the city, sorted out the dark blue official clothes on his lower body, went out of the house as usual, smiled and nodded with the left and right neighbors in the square, walked to qixiamen street outside the square, and was ready to take a public carriage to point Mao at the official residence in the imperial city.
Liu Qingru is in his forties this year. He is not young, but it was only a few years ago that he finally got into the Ming classics section. The Ministry of officials awarded the official taichangqing to record things, from the official products of the nine grades.
After several years, Liu Qing was also very satisfied with the promotion to Xie Lulang on zhengbapin.
As usual, he went out of the square door and went to the roadside to wait for the public carriage. He thought about it. Yesterday, the four disciples of the Shanghu County Duke of the hall proposed to give Su a knighthood.
Now, the details of the flood and epidemic in Xuzhou have long been published in the court, and Liu Qing has already read through the matter of Xuzhou.
In fact, he still admired Su, the woman of Huxian Gong.
The big head plague broke out in Xuzhou. Under such circumstances, the woman dared to lead a group of doctors into Yanling County. Even if Liu Qing was a man, she could only praise him silently.
But at the Tai Chi hall yesterday, Liu Qing did not hesitate. He stood up behind Taichang Temple Qing Wang Ying and opposed the knighthood.
It's not that he has any opinion on the women's knighthood, but just to flatter Wang Ying, the temple Qing of Taichang.
Whether Su was knighted or not had nothing to do with him.
But since his immediate boss's bosses are all opposed, can he still sing the opposite tune?
Therefore, at the Tai Chi hall yesterday, Liu Qing opposed very fiercely. He even said that he wanted to learn from Wu Zixu and admonish Li Er.
Thinking about his performance yesterday, Liu Qing was very satisfied.
At the time of his coming down, Wang Ying, the Taichang Temple chief from the third grade, patted him on the shoulder with a rare and pleasant face. For the first time, she asked his official position and name, which made Liu Qing feel that everything was worth it.
As soon as he thought that in the future, he could enter the eyes of Taichang Siqing and said that it was right in front of him that he could not be promoted, Liu Qing silently praised him and felt that yesterday was a wise move.
When Liu Qingzheng was proud, a carriage came slowly from a distance and stopped in front of the gate of Zhaoguo square as usual.
He took two Wen out of his pocket and was ready to board the car as soon as he mentioned the corner of his official clothes, but he was stopped by the driver.
"Mr. Lang, please wait a moment. How dare you ask Mr. Lang? Is he in front of Captain Liu, the counselor of Taichang temple?"
Xie Lulang was called Xie Lulang school captain in the Jin Dynasty. Therefore, Xie Lulang in the Tang Dynasty was also respected as a school captain.
Liu Qing was slightly stunned. Unexpectedly, a Yu Fu actually knew himself.
"Yes, it's my official, but something?" Liu Qing coughed back.
Yu Fu smiled and nodded, but he almost blew Liu Qing up.
"It's really Liu Xiaowei. Hehe, that's good. I'm afraid I recognize the wrong person. If Liu Xiaowei is in front of me, Liu Xiaowei can't sit in this carriage today."
When Liu Qing heard the speech, he naturally became angry: "why is this? Please make it clear to me."
The driver took out a piece of paper from his arms and shook it at Liu Qing.
"Hei hei, not only can Liu Xiaowei take this carriage today, but he can't take it in the future. Not only can Liu Xiaowei take this carriage, but also all the carriages in Chang'an city. See? It's written on this paper. All the people with names on this paper will not be received in the public carriage in Chang'an city."
Liu Qing was stunned and then flew into a rage: "you're so brave! I'm Xie Lulang of Taichang temple. Can you offend these common people? Believe it or not, I'll take you to the official immediately and beat you for disrespect!"
His words didn't scare the Yu Fu, but made the Yu Fu laugh even louder.
"Ha ha, Liu Xiaowei, how can I disrespect you? It's Huxian Gong's order not to let Liu Xiaowei ride. If Liu Xiaowei is dissatisfied, he can go to Huxian Gong for an explanation!"
Yu Fu said, shaking the paper full of names at Liu Qing.
"See, all the officials on this paper are not allowed to take carriages. This is the order of the Duke of Huxian. How dare someone not follow?"
Liu Qing was stunned. He grabbed the paper in Yu Fu's hand and looked carefully.
It was filled with the names, official positions and the neighborhood where many officials in the court lived, even their height and appearance.
Liu Qing naturally saw his name on it.
He couldn't believe it. He looked up and asked, "Ben, I've never met the Duke of Huxian, and I have no hatred. He, why..."
Liu Qing said half of what he said, but suddenly he couldn't go on.
He suddenly woke up. It seems impossible to say that there is no hatred.
On the hall yesterday, the Su surname, who was opposed by him and others to the knighthood, is known to be the woman of the Duke of Huxian
Take a closer look at the names on that piece of paper. Aren't they all the people who spoke against the fiercest group in the court yesterday?
Thinking of this, the sweat on Liu Qing's forehead is coming down.
He was obsessed with flattering his boss, but he forgot that he would offend the Duke of Huxian
Liu Qing felt dizzy at this time.
He never expected that he would be written down by the Duke of Huxian county and write a list, even if he followed the flow and agreed with Taichang Siqing.
Huxian Gong, who is that?
At that time, the second-class Kaiguo County Duke, the prince, the emperor and the sage's nephew even heard that his majesty wanted to marry the eldest princess to Huxian Duke as his wife.
Such a big man, he is lard blindfolded, will go to embarrass his woman in order to please Taichang Temple Qing?
Liu Qingzheng regretted it. When he was in mourning, he suddenly realized that it was wrong. It is rumored that the Huxian public didn't "ask for leave to travel"?
