Geng Hao did not sleep all night. The small window high up on the wall seemed to be a little brighter, and the first crow of the rooster could be clearly heard.
The faces of Mu Sheng, Mu Zhen, Old Madam Geng, and Hu Yi, as well as their conversations, flashed through Geng Hao's mind one by one again.
The last time Hu Yi came to see Geng Hao, he explained the Geng family's situation to him. Hu Yi said that the Mu family could not protect the Geng family, let alone bring him wealth and honor. For now, the only right way was to join the current emperor! Hu Yi even showed the emperor's secret decree, proving that he was the emperor's confidant.
Later, Geng Hao finally went to Baoen Temple Street and talked to Hu Yi, expressing his willingness to get close to him. That time, Hu Yi said that since the Mu Mansion could accommodate Geng's family, there must be other people; as long as Geng Hao informed on the matter and made contributions, Hu Yi would ensure that he
"Xu Xu..." Wang Gui finally stopped the carriage because the carriage had just gone down a long slope down the mountain.There are mountains on all sides, very big mountains, but they are different from the high mountains in Guizhou Province. The mountains here are relatively gentle, with continuous ups and downs. Sometimes you can't even notice that you are on the hillside. When the carriage can't stop, you will wake up and realize that you are on a long slope.Yang Sheng, the groom of the Mu Mansion, got out of the carriage, limped hurriedly to the side of the post road, untied his belt facing a body of water covered with lush southern reeds, then raised his head and let out a long breath.When Yang Sheng tied his belt again and turned around, Duan Yang was already standing behind him."The reeds are dense here. I'll keep watch for you," said Yang Sheng.Duan Yang shook her head, squinting her eyes at the surrounding scenery, and then fixed her
The sun was still hanging in the western sky. Behind the three main halls of the Han Palace and inside the Chengyun Gate was the harem; the last rays of the setting sun sprinkled all over the palaces and brick floors here.Guo Wei was doing chores in the palace, her skirt fluttering in the orange afterglow, the silk material was quite shiny, as if all the light was gathered on the dress.When she was not meeting guests, she usually wore ordinary clothes, not the princess's formal dress or casual clothes. Because the clothes stipulated by etiquette were very rigid in style, color and pattern, and what to wear was only related to one's social status. Therefore, the daily dressing of the ladies could best reflect their preferences.Guo Wei was wearing a light purple silk jacket that reached her knees, and a simple six-pleated long skirt. After all, she was only fifteen years old, so choosing clothes with light colors was suitable for her. There were no patterns
Not long after Yuan Gong left, the sound of wooden fish in the room stopped.There was a sudden silence in the temple, which made Yao Guangxiao feel a little lonely inadvertently.There are unpainted wood everywhere in the simple fasting room, and the official uniform placed on the straw mat only has some color.It's not that Yao Guangxiao couldn't get those prosperous and luxurious things. The emperor personally wanted to reward Yao Guangxiao with a mansion, beautiful maids, and fertile land, but he refused... Now what is the use of those external things? Seventy years is rare in life, and Yao Guangxiao, who is nearly seventy years old, even has loose teeth.When he was young, he felt that he had seen through the mundane world and had no obsession with getting married and having children. Now that he has achieved success and fame, Yao Guangxiao can't help but occasionally think about this: What would it be like if I had children?Yao Guangxiao r
The Emperor, in the Mandate of Heaven, decrees: The local governor of Yuezhou, Azi, was stubborn and refused to be civilized; he has been killed and his place has been changed to a temporary official. Now the barbarians over there are rebelling again and are unwilling to obey. Our court cannot let this happen.King Gao Xu of Han was a prudent military commander, so he ordered him to take the guards and garrison troops to settle the Yuezhou incident and then report back. The Marquis of Xiping and the three officials of Yunnan were all required to follow Gao Xu's instructions and do a good job.Yunnan is a long way away, so from now on, if the military commander needs to deploy troops, he must go to the Hanwang Mansion and Xipinghou Mansion to give them a heads-up....Zhu Gaoxu sent the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict out of Chengyun Hall. Seeing the young chief secretary Li Mo standing nearby, he asked him to arrange food and lodging for the eunuchs a
This courtyard to the west of the Hou Mansion was originally where the horseman Yang Sheng lived. At this time, there were many people standing here, because the Marquis Mu Sheng came in person.Mu Sheng nodded and raised his hand to make gestures. He was unable to respond to the courteous words of the officials and servants one by one.He walked under the eaves, stared at the clothes hanging on the rope, and reached out to touch them gently. Those clothes seemed to have been hung for a long time and were covered with a little dust; but they were made very smooth and did not look like the work of someone with rough hands and feet."Is there a woman in Yang Yong's family?" Mu Sheng asked.One of the slaves said, "In response to the Marquis, Yang Laizi is a bachelor, but some people have seen women coming in and out of his house from time to time."Mu Sheng asked again, "What kind of woman?"No one could tell clearly for a while, but it was p
In early August, Zhu Gaoxu bid farewell to the officials of various Yunnan departments and the people of the city, and led his army out of the city.There were nearly 10,000 ceremonial guards and guards accompanying him, as well as 5,000 regular infantry soldiers of the guard station. Chariots, horses, baggage, artillery, firearms, armor, and weapons are all available. The mighty troops came out from the east gate of Yunnan Mansion, marched northeast along the post road, and soon entered the mountainous area.Most of the post roads in the mountains were built along the valleys and were winding. The team of more than 10,000 people had no end in sight, with colorful flags covering the sky and gorgeous ceremonial guards, which was also a huge scene.The army marched very slowly; every time they arrived at a town or post station, Zhu Gaoxu ordered them to set up camp, beat gongs and drums, and fire cannons at the mountains and forests. The loud sound of the cann
In late autumn, the weather here is not cold, but the temperature difference between day and night is large, and it becomes cooler after nightfall. Zhu Gaoxu put on a cloak and walked outside the tent of Liu Taizhi's sworn brother Ma Peng.Liu Tai and others are not criminals, and there is no need to isolate them for interrogation; but if we separate them and talk to them again, perhaps we will be able to get to the truth more easily."You wait outside." Zhu Gaoxu said to the guards around him. Everyone who came today was searched and did not bring weapons, so Zhu Gaoxu was not worried.Zhao Ping clasped his fists and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."There was a pile of firewood burning in the tent, and an iron kettle hanging from above was emitting white steam and gurgling sounds. Zhu Gaoxu felt a wave of heat coming towards him, and he immediately untied his cloak as soon as he came in."I pay my respects to the prince!" Ma Peng immediately stood up
The street in front of Kunming County Government Office is called Xianqian Street.There was a carriage by the street, and the young man sitting in front of the carriage with a whip in his hand was Yao Fang. Yao Fang was wearing a short grey cloth coat and a straw hat on his head.Looking from this side, you can just see the screen wall of the county government office diagonally opposite, and even the carving of a beast swallowing the sun on the screen wall can be seen clearly.At this moment, Yao Fang saw Mu Sheng, wearing a lion-embroidered troupe collar, walking out of the county government office. Mu Sheng suddenly held onto the wall, and vomited by the wall with a "vomit..." sound! Several people around Mu Sheng hurried forward to hold him, and someone handed him a handkerchief.There was a faint voice, and Mu Sheng asked, "Can you confirm that the dead body inside is really Yang Yong's body?"Several people were talking, and one of them sai
The sky gradually darkened and the lights came on. Gao Xu held Miao Jin's hand and followed the crowd into the concert hall.People were all dressed up, especially women, who were all dressed up. Some wore traditional clothes such as ruqun or aoqun, while others were dressed in modern fashion. Each figure seemed to be wandering between the classical and the modern.Among them there are many foreigners, probably all of whom came to Taicang to attend international conferences.In terms of fun, people might prefer to watch a movie rather than enjoy such pure music. However, there were still many listeners tonight, and the auditorium gradually filled up.Perhaps some of them value the rarity of concerts and do not attend them often, while others simply value their style.Gao Xu's main happiness comes from Miao Jin's company. Imagine if he came alone or with someone unrelated, his feelings would be much worse. He is willing to be with Miao Jin and exp
There were long commercials playing on TV, but no one changed the channel.Miao Jin was doing chores and preparing ingredients for lunch. Gao Xu began to check his various instruments, which were all measuring tools he had collected a while ago.There is a ray detector, which, according to the manual, can detect radiation, including ultraviolet light, laser and other electromagnetic waves. There is a torsion balance experimental device, which can measure the gravitational constant. And an air measuring instrument.There were also some uncommon small devices. In short, except for the large instruments that were difficult to carry, he tried his best to buy all the instruments that could test general constants.Miao Jin would occasionally look over here curiously, but before she asked, she might have guessed what Gao Xu was going to do.Gao Xu would tell her clearly as long as she asked. Because when he was going to look for the cave in Huangshan, h
Gao Xu usually doesn't like watching TV. But today, when Miao Jin was watching TV in the living room, he was gradually attracted by the TV program, so he stopped what he was doing and sat next to Miao Jin.There was a studio on the TV screen, with two hosts, a man and a woman, talking about the animation "Zootopia" like a crosstalk. It was neither news nor entertainment, but a show that mocked reality.Miao Jin saw Gao Xu sitting over and said, "This TV station should be more inclined to the left-wing viewpoint."Gao Xu asked, "Why haven't I heard of the distinction between left and right wings?"Miao Jin said, "It is originally an imported product. That is how foreigners describe Ming Dynasty politics. There is no clear distinction between left and right in China. So we generally don't use such words. It is normal that we don't hear them normally."She glanced at Gao Xu and continued, "This classification first appeared in the parliament during
Gao Xu's drama project has less than half the investment of the animation project, with a total investment of about 40 million yen for 15 episodes; the profit expectations are also completely incomparable to those of animated films. As Wang Siqi and most people believe, the fastest way to make money is still the movie box office.But Gao Xu has invested more energy in costume dramas.The crew built a filming site in the Western Regions. From 509 to the first half of 510, a production period of less than a year, Gao Xu flew twice to personally observe the filming site. His subordinate Sun Jing also stayed in the Western Regions for a long time, passing various information back to Taicang.A large media company in Taicang has signed an exclusive premiere agreement with Dream Incubation Studio.The terms are a bit complicated, but the key is to adopt a cooperation model with floating copyright fees. When the series is almost finished, a pay TV station und
The glass window on the outer wall is located in the east direction, so the sunlight cannot enter the studio in the afternoon. Therefore, Gao Xu often has a slight illusion that it seems to be later than the actual time.At this moment, the phone in his coat pocket rang. Gao Xu's phone rarely received calls because he had set the Do Not Disturb function, so no calls could be received from numbers that were not saved. He took it out and saw that it was a person who he did not contact often but had saved the number a long time ago, Sun Jing.Gao Xu stood up from his desk, walked to the corner by the glass window, glanced at Wang Cheng not far away, and answered the phone.Sun Jing's voice asked, "Are you still busy with work?"Gao Xu said, "Yes, I am working on two projects at the same time, so I am a little busy. How is Mr. Sun doing recently?"Sun Jing, "Very boring. I don't have to go to work, but I've been idle for so long that I feel like I'm
This was the second time Gao Xu and Xiao Yu had a meal together. Last time they were at the company cafeteria, and today they were at a roadside fast food restaurant.After finishing work at the agency, Gao Xu drove off the main road and found a parking space. Then he randomly found a restaurant where he could eat and walked in with Xiao Yu.It was very lively inside, with all kinds of customers, including well-dressed office workers and some homely citizens, men, women, young and old, making a big noise in the room, mixed with the loud shouts of the shop assistants passing on information. Although the air conditioner was on, the shop was open and there were many people, so it was still very hot inside.There were several dishes to choose from, all of which were simple and convenient. Gao Xu and Xiao Yu gave up on the braised pork intestines with radish, and roast duck was too greasy, so they chose roast chicken.The roasted chicken skin was cut into p
After many twists and turns, Gao Xu finally contacted the director named Ma Xuan.Ma Xuan has an account on the Internet where he posts some career news. Gao Xu's assistant Yu Ni left messages and sent messages, but it took several days for her to get a response. Gao Xu came to the hall and looked through the information records on Yu Ni's computer."He doesn't seem very proactive." Yu Ni said.Gao Xu said , "You claim to be the assistant of the investor of "Dream Seekers", but he may not believe you. If our studio also has such a certified account, it may save some trouble."At this time, Shidai Heng walked by and greeted him, "Mr. Liu."Gao Xu nodded and said, "We are trying to contact Ma Xuan, the director you recommended."Dai Heng came over and said, "He should have received a lot of similar messages. And there is indeed some false information on the Internet. For the purpose of advertising, people may lie about their identities, which
The people who work here, including Dai Heng who has only been here a few days, seem to have gotten used to the environment.The studio was in good condition. The morning sun shone in through the French windows, and the room was clean and tidy. In addition to the solid wood desk and bookshelf, and a full range of domestic electrical appliances (Made in China products are more expensive), there were also comfortable leather chairs.Gao Xu was in Xiao Deng's office at the moment, sitting on one of the leather chairs, holding a tablet and reading the text he had just copied from Xiao Deng's computer. Of course, he couldn't help but listen to the sound of her keyboard at the same time.He put down the tablet, picked up the cup next to him, and found it was empty. So he stood up and walked to the water dispenser, filled up half a cup of hot water, then took a tea bag and put it in the cup to soak for more than ten seconds, then took it out and put it next to him.
The next screenwriter who came to the studio for an interview was named Dai Heng, who should be a relatively unknown person.Gao Xu looked out from the glass wall and when he saw Dai Heng, he immediately guessed that this person was probably not married yet. Dai Heng was wearing a brand new suit, a white shirt with a small cross collar, and a pair of casual leather shoes that didn't match. The most unpleasant thing about Dai Heng was his long hair, but unlike the image of Ekin Cheng, Gao Xu felt at first glance that Dai Heng was not suitable for that hairstyle. Some hairstyles look good, but they are picky about the face.But these are not problems. Now that the people have arrived, Gao Xu needs to get to know them a little bit.Gao Xu pressed the phone on the desk, "Xiao Yu, ask him to come to the office to meet.""Okay." Xiao Yu said into the phone outside, his voice coming from the desk inside.Dai Heng came in from the door with a bag on his
