Chapter 707

First day!

Today's Mojia village is particularly lively. The whole Mojia village is full of the noise of gongs and drums, which is particularly festive.

On the first day of each year, a large number of carriages are parked outside the Mojia village to specially take the Mojia villagers to Chang'an city. This year, it seems that there are some exceptions, only a few four-wheel carriages are waiting.

First, the Mojia village didn't marry many brides this year. Second, the construction of today's Mojia village is more beautiful than Chang'an City, which makes many villagers who have often traveled to and from Chang'an city feel that there is no novelty. Of course, more importantly, today's Mojia village is still in a difficult period, and the villagers will not go to Chang'an City, a place where money flows like water.

The carriages that stayed were the carriages that Merton was going to return to Chang'an city. Li Yi and others were seeing Merton off.

At the moment, Yang's family and Wu Meiniang hurried to the village. Wu Meiniang sighed with relief when she saw Merton's carriage, bowed and said, "I've paid a new year's greeting to my master."

Merton looked at Wu Meiniang unexpectedly and said, "today is the first day. Are you not at home with your mother?"

Wu Meiniang shook her head and said, "disciple will naturally return to Chang'an City together with her master. Besides, my mother's life in Mojia village is excellent. Naturally, disciple doesn't have to worry."

Seeing Wu Meiniang's resolute face, Merton nodded and said, "I won't start until a moment later. Go and say goodbye to your mother."

"Thank you, master!" Wu Meiniang got up with a happy face. After all, she is only ten years old. How can she not miss yang.

Wu Meiniang returned to Yang with a happy face, but Yang couldn't bear to leave and couldn't help crying.

"Mother, don't cry. Chang'an city is very close to Mojia village. If mother wants to have a child, she can come to see the child at any time." Wu Meiniang comforted.

Yang shook his head, picked up Wu Meiniang's heavy package and sobbed, "which country's daughter in the world is not carefree all her life. Where do you need to read so many books? Suffer from this ten-year cold window!"

Yang's life in Mojia village is not bad, and the beautiful Mojia village is more comfortable than Chang'an city. She is naturally very satisfied. However, when her daughter comes back this time, she reads late into the night with thick books every day. How can she not feel distressed.

Wu Mei Niang shook her head firmly and said, "today, my service is the way of ancient sages. Don't you know it's not a blessing? Why should I cry and be a child?"

Today, she is only a 10-year-old girl. She has to be weak and have no appearance. The helplessness she and Yang had when they were driven out of the Wu mansion has been remembered by her. Now she has finally found her own strength and knowledge.

She didn't want to encounter a similar situation again, but like her mother, she would only sit on the ground and cry weakly without fighting back.

Wu Meiniang waved goodbye to her mother, turned around, carried her heavy luggage and resolutely stepped on the carriage.

Merton naturally saw this scene and nodded with satisfaction. He really didn't accept the wrong disciple. Although the track of Wu Meiniang in history has changed, I'm afraid her heart has been stimulated at the moment when she was driven out of the Wu mansion.

"Let's go!"

Merton boarded the carriage, and the motorcade started slowly and quickly headed for Chang'an city. Today is the day of the month. He still has one of the most important things to do, that is, the regular first day meeting every year.

During the year of the first day pilgrimage, Li Shimin met with the largest and most ceremonious pilgrimage of all officials. However, it was not the pilgrimage, but the pilgrimage of all officials to Li Shimin. They often made a pilgrimage to all officials, presented gifts everywhere, and even foreign envoys congratulated Li Shimin on the new year.

In the past, Merton had no official position and naturally did not need to see the Yuan Dynasty meeting. However, this year, he has been an official from the sixth grade, and he is in charge of the firearms supervision alone. Naturally, he needs to visit the Yuan Dynasty meeting.

The carriage went all the way. After entering the south gate, other carriages rushed back to Mo mansion, while Merton took the carriage and rushed directly to the palace.

When Merton arrived in front of the Tai Chi hall, he was stunned. He saw a large number of officials gathered in front of the Tai Chi hall, at least hundreds of people.

"It's said that there are many officials in the capital like dogs! The ancients sincerely didn't deceive me!" Merton sighed for a while. I'm afraid that only a few dozen officials can climb the Tai Chi hall at ordinary times, and most other officials may have the opportunity to climb the Tai Chi hall once a year.

And most of them are in their 40s and 50s. Although the secret skill of hair dyeing makes everyone in Manchu officials have black hair, the old face can't deceive people! When young Merton stood in the team, he immediately became particularly conspicuous and attracted the attention of the public.

"Mojiazi!"

When people saw this Mohist child like a rash catfish, they were not surprised.

Most of the people above the court hall are the children of Confucianism, and how can the sudden rise of Mohism not make them look at it? What they did not expect is that Mohism has a strong rise. Especially recently, the future city of Mohist village has amazed the whole Chang'an city. All those who return from Mohist village are full of praise, and all officials have heard of it.

The officials of the first department in Luoyang could not help gnashing their teeth at the Mohist family, while the Guanlong aristocrats hated and loved the Mohist family. On the one hand, they hated the Mohist family's second favor order. On the other hand, they needed the technology of the Mohist village to improve food production to solve the plight of the Guanlong family.

Other officials saw Merton for the first time and couldn't help looking at Merton.

Merton saluted politely one by one, but all the officials immediately avoided their eyes, and Merton was immediately isolated.

Merton was dejected and silently ready to retreat to the last position. Suddenly, a rough big hand against Merton's back. Merton turned his head and saw that it was the big Si Ma sulingnong.

Su Lingnong laughed and said, "I'm afraid I don't know. The first day Dynasty meeting is divided according to the grade of officials. Ink sacrifice has been divided from six grades, so it's natural to stand in the position of six grades."

Merton quickly bowed and said, "thank you for your advice."

All the officials isolated Merton, and only the big Si Nong Su Lingnong was close to him, which obviously took a great political risk.

Su Lingnong said with a smile, "if you really want to thank me, let me go to your glass greenhouse to have a look at the vegetables, melons and fruits produced out of season. These are things that benefit the country and the people. I feel itchy."

As a farmer, he suddenly heard that Mojia village had a way to make vegetables grow out of season in winter. How can he restrain himself.

Merton said without hesitation, "why is this difficult? The big farmer is a farmer. Who knows farming better than you in the world? Years later, the boy will surely send craftsmen to build a glass greenhouse in Su's house for the big farmer to test improved varieties."

Su Lingnong is the man whom Merton admired most. He devoted himself to the farmhouse and kept cultivating good seeds for the imperial court all his life. Such a pure man is also an alien in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty and the most firm ally of the Mohist school.

"You're welcome!" Su Lingnong said without hesitation.
