Qin Official

The daughter of the county guard is called "Zijin", which is a very Korean name. "Qingqing Zijin, leisurely in my heart" comes from "Zheng Feng".

Her remarks, "You shouldn't be ashamed of having a family name of Wu, but you should be ashamed of being a Duke of Wu Gong" helped Heifu solve the problem and made everyone stop talking about surnames.

After she joined the party, the originally harmonious blind date began to slip towards the other end. The children of noble officials present were like stars holding the moon, vying to show their courtesy to Zijin.

In terms of appearance, Zijin was not the most beautiful, and she was young and her body had not yet matured. What attracted many men to her was simply her family background. Who doesn't know that the governor Teng is well-known in Nanjun, and he is young and powerful. He is deeply trusted by the king and has great hope of becoming an important minister in the court.

If you can marry Ye, your future will undoubtedly be improved. For a while, the male peacocks at this party competed to show their best side.

It's a pity that no matter how hard he tries, his conversation always seems boring.

The way the officials and aristocrats in Jiangling cultivated their children was to follow the traditional aristocratic education, so that they could be proficient in the six arts of a gentleman: etiquette, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy, and mathematics, and then read some poems and poems from the Chu region and poems from the Central Plains.

When the children are close to adulthood, they are allowed to enter the school as "officials" and learn the laws and regulations of Qin. It can take as little as two years and as many as three years. After graduation, the children can enter the county and city as officials. In this way, they will slowly work at the grassroots level for more than ten years. If they are lucky, they will go to the battlefield and make contributions. When their fathers die, they can naturally inherit the title, become the chief officials of various Cao Cao, continue to train their children, and start a new cycle... …

This is the normal situation in the circle of nobles and officials in Nanjun, Qin State. Therefore, most of the young men in front of them are still students in the school. At most, they follow their parents to hunt rabbits in surrounding counties and villages, and they are no more than a hundred miles away. They were either competing to see who got the most prey in the last hunt, or who in the school got the praise of the master. In the eyes of girls who were influenced by their father and had a precocious mind, they were just a bunch of ignorant brats.

As for those who beat around the bush and quoted scriptures to praise her name for her achievements, are they just pretending to understand?

Zijin, isn't it just a collar? Moreover, it is still a man's collar. Even the girl herself does not know what is so good about this name. If we ignore the poems and books and just talk about the original meaning, being called "collar" does not seem to be much more elegant than "black husband".

Although Zijin was not rude, he was a little impatient and could only laugh helplessly.

Compared with her, the other women present were just green leaves and were ignored, so they also began to attack the jade-faced gentleman Feng Jing. The party formed two centers, one on the left and one on the right, and the owner was a little tired of dealing with it.

At this moment, a burst of chatter came from a corner of the party.

"I heard that Zuo Bing Cao Shi once served as a pavilion chief when he was in Anlu County? He also solved several major cases?"

…

"Can you ask Zuo Bing Cao Shi to tell me the details of those cases?"

The person who asked Heifu was called "Tang Jue". He was the son of the thief Cao Tong. His family had been working as a legal official for generations. Tang Jue was even able to read through the family files. Therefore, several major cases that occurred in Anlu County the year before last were , he still has an impression.

Heifu looked at this curious baby who could ask questions with admiration. He did not hide his humble past and readily admitted it.

"On the first day I took office, I received an anonymous submission..."

Starting from the tomb robbery case, he gradually learned about the various investigation methods used by Heifuting to arrest the thieves. Although Heifu seems to be a man of few words, when he expresses his intention, he can also tell stories with ups and downs. His several thrilling experiences made people nervous, and everyone on the side stopped talking to listen to his story.

Especially the case of the robbery in Blind Mountain, because the victim was also a woman, and the women across the street also felt sympathy for each other. When Hei Fu said that although they rescued a few poor women, they were surrounded by hundreds of mobs, he even let out bursts of anger. scream! He hurriedly asked what happened next, and when he learned that they finally turned the corner, he couldn't help but praise them.

For a moment, all the girls forgot who just disliked the Heifu family.

What is most important in a gathering of peers? Family background? appearance? Elegant? Heifu did not have an advantage in these things, especially Feng Jing, a high-ranking disciple on the side. But in one thing, he was better than countless people present.

That is experience. Compared with Heifu, the young men present are simply young grass in spring.

With experience, you will have something to talk about that will attract people and prevent the party from getting boring.

The son of the meritorious officer and the son of the county magistrate, who wanted to show off in front of Zijin, were surprised to find that the goddess they were concerned about no longer listened to their chatter, but looked towards Hei Fu. I don’t know since when, the dark Zuo Bing Cao Shi gradually dominated the conversation and became the center of this Lantai gathering.

Because the things he talked about sounded so novel to everyone, so far away from their daily lives.

After Heifu finished telling his police story, he talked about his military career. He talked about the tragic breakout of Linyang in the Battle of Chu, which made Tang Jue and others sigh with regret, wishing that he was there at that time.

"Next time we attack Chu, maybe the second and third sons can catch up."

Heifu encouraged them and mentioned the training work he was doing to train medical soldiers...

"According to the order of the county governor, I will prepare this matter."

Heifu glanced at the county guard's daughter opposite. She had been listening with a smile, but she didn't pretend to be coquettish like the other women and kept asking questions.

"I intend to recruit thirty or forty people in Jiangling. It is not necessary to know medical skills, but it is best to be literate and have a title. After training for two months, they will be sent to the counties of Nanjun. Each person will teach ten people. Around the autumn harvest, Nanjun can With hundreds of doctors and nurses helping people in emergency, the injured no longer have to worry about anything."

Feng Jing also said: "If the second and third sons are interested, there are still a few vacancies for hundreds of generals and village commanders among the medical and emergency personnel. Although the positions are not high, they can save lives and heal the wounded after the war, and they will not be short of credit."

This was what he and Heifu had discussed. Those officials' children who graduated from the school, with low titles and education, were just suitable for these positions. Of course, the premise was that they could endure hardship and were willing to receive first aid training.

However, everyone who had just been praising this system as a great benefit to the country and soldiers suddenly fell silent. Obviously, they thought their official positions were small and the things they did were dirty and dirty. Who would be willing to serve lowly pawns?

At this time, it was Zijin who solved the embarrassment. She smiled and said: "Zuo Bing Cao Shi, Feng Zu Shi, can women be doctors and rescuers?"

"this……"

Zijin's words were shocking, and Heifu and Feng Jing looked at each other. Although there were female nurses working in field hospitals in later generations, and the effect was even better than that of male nurses, in the Qin army where "there were no women in the army city", Totally impossible.

Zijin sighed after hearing this: "I heard that when Tian Dan was guarding Jimo, the wives and concubines were arranged among the troops to bind the soldiers' wounds and provide them with food and clothing. It is a pity that we, as women, cannot do our best for the country..."

"It's admirable for a lady to care about national affairs, but at the time of Tian Dan, Qi was about to perish, so she had no choice but to do so."

Heifu said sternly: "Now that the Qin State is strong, if the country's affairs have reached the point of besieging a dangerous city and requiring women to join the army, wouldn't our men be too useless? If a lady is willing to do something for the wounded soldiers, she can be a wife at home. During the exercise, just use linen to sew a few bandages for wounds."

Zijin smiled and agreed, but her words just now made all the young men blush with embarrassment. Tang Jue and another person immediately said that they wanted to apply to join.

"Is this a way to provoke the general?" Heifu saw this scene in his eyes and couldn't help but think of the governor Teng who liked to play tricks on people's hearts. He didn't know whether Cai Zijin's words just now were true or intentional.

"A dragon gives birth to a dragon and a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix...Don't underestimate her just because she is young and weak."

This little girl spoke and acted in a manner quite like Ye Teng's. Although she seemed to be full of good intentions when she answered the phone twice, it still made Heifu wary.

At this time, a chef happened to bring the food for the party, including a small flat-footed tripod containing meat, beans for meat sauce, a bamboo basket for fruits, as well as spoons, daggers, and chopsticks. In addition, there are bronze wine princes and several "feather glasses"...

This is a cup used for drinking. It has an oval shape, a shallow belly, a flat bottom, and half-moon-shaped pairs on both sides. Because its shape resembles the wings of a bird, it is named "Yu Zhan".

At this time, Qi Xia, the son of Gong Cao, who felt that Hei Fu could no longer dominate the party conversation, immediately hit Tong Jue with chopsticks and loudly suggested:

"How can we miss drinking from a cup of meandering water on this last day? How about using the ring-shaped living water in the Flowing Water Pavilion to have a cup of wine and follow the waves?"

It is said that eight hundred years ago, Zhou Gong camped in Luoyi. On the first day of the third month, he gathered all the officials on the Luo River. Because the flowing water was used to pour wine, there is a poem: "The wine glass follows the waves." Later, it became A traditional game for men and women gathering during the Shangsi Festival. Everyone shares a cup, and there is no distinction between men and women. It just wants to heat up the atmosphere. Of course everyone agrees.

Qi Xia was obviously a veteran of this game. He said: "The second and third sons, please listen to me knocking on the copper baron. When the sound of the baron stops, the corresponding person should pick up the wine glass, drink a full cup, and say a poem, rhyme or speech on the spot." , how about it?"

Huang Tian, ​​the son of the county magistrate on the side, answered: "Are there any restrictions on the poems, rhymes, and words mentioned?"

"Of course!"

Qi Xia smiled and said: "In the past, King Xiang of Chu was visiting the palace in Lantai. Song Yu sent his attendants to the palace. A sudden wind came, so Song Yu wrote "Feng Fu". Now a period has passed, and we are gathering again in Lantai." Palace, the ancient poems, short poems or Chu Ci mentioned must contain the word 'wind'!"

After saying this, Qi Xia glanced at Hei Fu and said to himself: "This officer has just stolen our limelight. It's really hateful. Could it be that he also has intentions for the daughter of the county governor? Although he has a rich resume, he must have never studied poetry, calligraphy and poetry. Not to mention that after strict restrictions, I won’t be able to say a word. I will take this opportunity to use my strengths to attack the other’s weaknesses, severely destroying his prestige and causing him to lose face!"
