Chapter 1008 Friendship
After the matter of the Japanese girl was resolved, the household department's interest in the Japanese girl increased greatly. Dou Dexuan sought out Jia Ping'an, and he blushed for a long time and was speechless.
"Mr. Dou, do you have something to say?"
Jia Ping'an was still very busy. Outside, Chen Jinfa was winking, and there was another person waiting behind him, who looked quite tall.
Dou Dexuan sighed: "It's hard to say."
At this time, if Jia Pingan respects the elderly, he should take the initiative to ask, for example: Dou Gong, you just talk about it, and you can talk about anything.
But Jia Pingan said: "Then don't say it."
Young people don't respect the old! Dou Dexuan held back his old blood, "How many more will the Japanese girl come?"
"Mr. Dou wants to ask how much money will come in the future, right?" Jia Ping'an understood.
Dou Dexuan's face was upright and awe-inspiring, "The old man wouldn't care about this matter."
Jia Ping’an didn’t take it too far, “Grand Dou, the follow-up Japanese women will be distributed in various ways, especially in the south. Poor mountains and rivers, mother, no one wants to go, use the Japanese women to seduce, at least some people can go.”
Dou Dexuan stood up, "Let's go."
"Mr. Dou won't sit down?"
Dou Dexuan shook his head, "I have a lot to do."
Dou Dexuan drifted away.
Chen Jinfa came in, "Duke, the new servant is here."
Jia Ping'an has been sending out requests to the court to quickly dispatch the Minister of the Ministry of War, and today finally came.
The visitor is tall and slender, and he has a temperament that makes people feel good... This kind of temperament is called gentle and elegant.
There was a smile on his fair face, and the visitor cupped his hands, "Wang Xuan has met Zhao Guogong."
Wang Xuan!
Jia Pingan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Wang Shilang is here, and our military department will naturally flourish in the future. Chen Jinfa, please invite Wu Shilang."
According to the procedure, when the newcomer arrives, Jia Pingan should talk to him, and then introduce Wu Kui to him.
But after just one sentence, Jia Pingan put an end to the procedure between the two.
Wu Kui also got the news of the arrival of the new servant, and was sighing in the duty room.
"The old man has been in the Ministry of War for a long time, here is another one, hey!"
The confidant said: "Don't be afraid when you come, Zhao Guogong treats you well."
"Two opinions." Wu Kui was very sober, "Mr. Zhao is in charge of the military department, and the old man and the new servant are below. Who will Mr. Zhao be more affectionate to..."
He was a little depressed.
"Wu Shilang."
Chen Jinfa came, Wu Kui was surprised, "Why?"
Shouldn’t Jia Ping’an be talking to the new servant at this moment?
Chen Jinfa said: "The Duke invites you to go."
Wu Kui was a little confused, and when he saw Jia Pingan's house, he nodded when he saw the new servant, "So it's Wang Shilang!"
Wang Xuan nodded, "The old man has been working in the local area for the past few years, but I rarely see him with Wu Shilang."
The two sat down.
Jia Pingan was not interested in making any tea, and said, "I have a lot to do."
This is the keynote.
Wang Xuan still smiled, Wu Kui wanted to roll his eyes.
"If I have something to go out, you two should take good care of the Ministry of War."
The two of them bowed and agreed.
The next step is to treat guests, right?
Shangshu invites the new servant to have a meal of flower wine, this is a repertoire.
Jia Pingan said: "It's easy to do."
How about a treat?
Wu Kui looked up, Jia Pingan had already got up, "I have something to do here, the rest of Wu Shilang will tell Wang Shilang."
Wu Kui: "..."
His eyes were red.
What the Duke values most is indeed the old man!
Jia Pingan walked out of the Ministry of War and said calmly, "Check and balance."
Humans lack a sense of security, so they invented checks and balances, which are everywhere.
"Brother."
Li Jingye is always so happy, "It is my appointment."
"Good thing." Jia Pingan breathed a sigh of relief, "Go and ask, I'll wait for you outside."
Li Jingye has come a long way!
Jia Ping'an couldn't help feeling very pleased.
What about breast stimulation?
Cui Jian has been in the Ministry of Officials for many years, and has never moved. This time he has made a lot of contributions as a long history follower, so it's time to move!
But where?
It is difficult to ascend in place in the Ministry of Officials... Even if Cui Jian is not closely related to the aristocratic family, the Ministry of Officials is too important for the emperor to allow the aristocratic family to get involved.
Where are you going?
Jia Pingan thought about the possibility of Cui Jian coming to the Ministry of War yesterday, but with Wang Xuan's arrival, this possibility has dissipated.
Going to work in the following prefectures and counties would be like demoting an official to Cui Jian at this moment.
But Li Jingye's promotion is a good thing.
Li Jingye is currently in the Ministry of Punishment.
"What?"
In the on-duty room, Liu Xiangdao, Minister of the Criminal Ministry, said with a complicated expression: "I just got an appointment in the future, and you will be reinstated."
My official resumed his original post.
Or a doctor?
Li Jingye wanted to explode.
But for Liu Xiangdao, he wished that Li Jingye, the shame of the Ministry of Punishment, would get out of here soon.
This guy doesn't do his job in the criminal department, he just chats and nonsense with his subordinates all day long. That's all, but this guy still likes to drag his subordinates to Pingkangfang, saying it's some **** dumping.
Misty atmosphere!
This time Li Jingye accompanied the expedition against the Wa Kingdom, and he was also in charge along the way, which made Liu Xiangdao feel that the disaster of the Ministry of Justice should go away... When Li Jingye returns, it will be the day of ascension.
Go, go and harm other places.
But the order was written down, and the sound of the waves remained the same.
Li Jingye exploded.
He staggered out of the duty room, with a look of not messing with me.
Out of the gate, Jia Pingan was waiting outside.
"how?"
Jia Ping'an felt wrong.
Li Jingye wanted to cry but had no tears, "Brother, I am still in the Ministry of Punishment, and I am a doctor."
this…
British lord, tigers do not eat grandchildren!
"I'm still in the Ministry of Criminal Justice!"
Li Jingye's mentality burst.
The Ministry of Criminal Justice is a place that requires professionalism, how can this Tie Hanhan solve the case, the days in the Ministry of Criminal Justice are boring, but those bearded women in Pingkangfang are happy.
"Go and ask."
Jia Pingan remembers that Lao Li still wanted to retire last year, how did he change?
Li Jingye aggressively went to find his grandfather. Jia Pingan was worried that this guy would play tricks, so he followed him.
Later, Jia Pingan waited outside the duty room, pointing at Li Jingye inside.
The little official leading the way smiled and said, "Let's go together."
Jia Pingan shook his head.
Li Jingye took a deep breath, "Ah Weng!"
Li Ji's warm voice came from inside, "Come in."
Li Jingye strode in.
Li Ji was sitting behind the desk reading the paperwork. Hearing the sound, he raised his head and rubbed his eyes, "Why are you here?"
"A Weng." Li Jingye was furious, "Why am I still in the Ministry of Punishment?"
Li Ji was silent, and said later: "Originally, the old man said that he was not in good health, so he stepped back. Who knew that His Majesty would not..."
Li Jingye burst into tears, "What about me?"
"Want to be an official?" Li Ji asked.
Li Jingye thought for a while, Li Ji's eyes were full of sadness, my grandson didn't even have a plan for what he wanted to do in the future.
Li Jingye said: "Of course I want to."
Li Ji waved his hand, "Wait two years."
Can…
Will your grandfather be beaten to death if he endured too long?
"Ah Weng, get me out of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."
"Hello, Ministry of Punishment."
"Where is the Ministry of Punishment?"
"You used to be noisy at Qianniuwei all day long, but after you went to the Ministry of Punishment, you became much better and more honest."
It's going to explode!
Jia Pingan pointed to the outside, the little official nodded and took a step back at the same time.
Jia Ping'an had just slipped two steps away when he heard Li Jingye say inside: "Ah Weng, you are dissatisfied with your desires, and you are venting your anger on others!"
I go!
wild!
Jia Pingan hurriedly slipped away.
…
In the duty room of Cui Jian, the Ministry of Officials, his uncle Cui Chen sat opposite him, not even looking at the tea in front of him.
"The tea from the Ministry of Officials is good."
Cui Jian glanced at the teacup in front of him, raised his eyes and said, "It's not bad. But it's not good to drink too much."
Cui Chen smiled, "You have been an obedient child since childhood."
Cui Jian smiled back, "Yes!"
Cui Chen finally looked down at the teacup, "Three years."
Cui Jian shook his head, "The appointment comes from above, it's not up to me to decide."
Cui Chen picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Too much tea leaves, very bitter!
He looked at Cui Jian, and said seriously: "I hope there is someone in the official department at home."
"Where are the nobles?" Cui Jian's eyes were full of sarcasm.
"Nobility!" Cui Chen smiled, "One body."
Then fell silent.
There was a small official standing outside. When someone came over, the small official shook his head slightly until the door of the duty room was closed, indicating that Cui Jian had something to do at the moment.
“We share weal and woe.”
"yes."
"The Cui family will help other gentry when they encounter difficulties, and we will also help them when they encounter difficulties. That's it... for many years, and it will be the same in the future."
"yes."
"..."
Cui Jian raised his head, and there was something else in his eyes, "Aye left early, and Auntie was weak and sick, so I grew up with my uncle since I was a child."
Cui Chen's mouth curled up slightly.
Cui Jian said: "I study a year later than other children."
Cui Chen smiled, "You were a little silly back then."
"Yes!" Cui Jian smiled, "I was smarter than others when I was four years old."
Cui Chen was stunned.
"After Aye went, A Niang told me that people who are too smart will be bullied."
The aristocratic family is not a paradise, as long as you are smart, you can get all the resources, and then the family will vigorously cultivate...
nonexistent!
A family is a group of people. Every parent, including grandparents, hopes that their children can get the best resources. You have to say that they are selfless...
"I was smarter than them, so someone went to find A Niang and said I was frivolous."
Cui Jian's eyes are more nostalgic, not for the family, but for his mother.
Human nature is greedy, and human nature is selfish. There has never been any selflessness.
"Since then, I've been a little more stupid than others. From studying to succeeding in the imperial examination, I wanted to take my mother away...even if it was against the rules. I even considered what price I would pay, but...she left."
Cui Jian turned his face away, "This is the biggest regret in my life."
"Sanlang!" Cui Chen said guiltily, "The old man has been negligent all these years."
Cui Jian smiled and said, "I'm used to it."
How could a child who is not your own care?
Cui Chen took a deep breath, "Your children will pay attention."
Cui Jian just smiled and didn't speak.
"Three more years!" Cui Chen left.
As soon as he left the imperial city, someone entered the Ministry of Officials.
"Cui Langzhong!"
Cui Jian stood up to greet him.
"The minister of the Ministry of Industry."
Cui Jian raised his head and nodded, "I will enter the palace to thank you now."
He entered the palace to thank you, and then came out, and the news had already spread.
"Meet Cui Shilang."
This step is extra solid!
Cui Jian nodded.
The servant is the reserve of important ministers.
Cui Jian looked up at the sky.
Aniang, did you see it?
…
On the second day, Jia Pingan saw Brother Cui with a bruised mouth.
"Is this being beaten?"
Jia Pingan thinks Brother Cui is really unlucky, and he hasn't seen him in peace since we met.
Cui Jian smiled, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "It's okay, I hit the corner of the wall."
"The Ministry of Industry is considered a good place." Jia Ping'an's vision is not low at the moment, "What is done there is practical, and there are fewer fights. It is easiest to get into the eyes of the emperor."
Cui Jian said: "I know this, all those trained by the Ministry of Industry are capable."
But he was a little guilty.
After entering the Ministry of Industry, first go to worship the top of the mountain.
"Meet Yan Shangshu."
Yan Liben can be said to be the most powerful minister in the Tang Dynasty, and the so-called technical master is talking about this man.
"You used to be in the Ministry of Officials for many years, but the old man doesn't value this, but the old man values your experience as an official in the local area in the early years."
Yan Liben is so talkative?
Cui Jian secretly rejoiced, "Yes."
Yan Liben pointed to the opposite side of himself, signaling Cui Jian to sit down.
New officials have to be beaten when they take office, for example, let you stand for a while... This is what later generations say about the study time.
But just two sentences made me sit down...
Cui Jian sat down quickly, and then Yan Liben asked him about his basic situation.
"Good job." Yan Liben was very kind, and even squeezed out a smile, "If you have anything to do, just come and find the old man."
Cui Jian got up, and then went to call on another servant, Huang Wan.
Huang Wan was even more talkative, Cui Jian couldn't believe his smile and kindness.
"From then on, I will be colleagues, but the officials of the Ministry of Industry are not very good-tempered, but most of them talk about the facts, you have to get used to it."
Huang Wan's words can be said to be superficial, and even revealed to Cui Jian the secrets of being an official from the Ministry of Industry.
"Thank you Huang Shilang."
Cui Jian nodded slightly when he saw a young man sitting beside him.
He went out of the door of the duty room, looked up at the sky, and felt that it went well and he couldn't believe it.
"Zhang Meng."
"The servant."
"Yesterday, I went to the Yamen, and your gentleman was squatting outside the imperial city. He had to drag Shang Shu and the old man to drink... The old man knew that this guy was up to no good. Sure enough, what he said was so hypnotic that what Cui Shilang said was true, There is nothing on the ground. By the way, why doesn’t your husband want to come here and say something nice for you?”
"Mr. said that young people are just out of school, it's better to be beaten a few times to lower their expectations."
"Nonsense."
Cui Jian stood outside the duty room for a moment, then went to his own duty room later.
Immediately, the officials in charge of him came to meet, and after talking with each other, they dispersed, leaving the two minor officials behind.
Cui Jian asked casually: "There is Zhang Meng over there, Huang Shilang, who looks very energetic."
The clerk laughed and said, "No, that's what students who have learned arithmetic are like this, walking with wind."
Cui Jian's hand holding the document stopped in mid-air.
…
Li Jingye was beaten up by his grandfather and came to Jia Pingan to complain.
"Ah Weng said he wanted to retire, but seeing this Tang Dynasty flourishing, he actually wanted to work for a few more years."
Who wouldn't?
Jia Pingan said: "Your temperament is still lacking in certainty. If you are allowed to go down to become an official, it will be deceiving others. If you change places, such as the Ministry of Industry, I am worried that the house you supervise will collapse..."
Li Jingye muttered: "Then I will go to supervise the construction of the mausoleum, I think it will work."
Jia Pingan: "..."
…
Cui Jian is here.
He didn't mention Jia Ping'an's going to the Ministry of Industry for himself.
Jia Pingan didn't even mention it.
"Wang Xuan's methods are good." Cui Jian sat down.
Jia Pingan nodded, "Drink tea."
Wang Xuan was born in the Wang family.
means good.
The information in one sentence is very rich.
"From now on, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to help you in the Cui family."
Cui Jian's mouth twitched as he spoke.
Jia Pingan glanced at the bruises at the corner of his mouth, "Am I scared?"
The momentum suddenly looked down.
Cui Jian smiled and said, "Yes! What are you afraid of?"
After he left, Jia Pingan called Bao Dong and Lei Hong.
"Check who Cui Jian met in the past two days, outsiders!"
After the two left, Chen Jinfa came in and said, "Duke, they are men of Baiqi. If these things are not handled properly, they will reach His Majesty's ears."
This is almost a suggestion of Chiguo.
Jia Pingan nodded.
The news came quickly.
"Cui Jian's uncle Cui Chen went to the Ministry of Officials yesterday."
Jia Ping'an doesn't want to investigate friends, but...
He nodded slightly.
Bao Dong continued: "Cui Jian's father left early, and his mother was weak and sick. He lived with his uncle Cui Chen since he was a child. Later, his mother went after passing the imperial examination. His wife is the only daughter, so he took his father-in-law and mother-in-law into the family together. Take care. The father-in-law passed away a few years ago, but the mother-in-law is still there, and she is also called A Niang on weekdays."
Cui Jian's official career appeared in Jia Pingan's mind.
After becoming an official, he went to the south as a county lieutenant.
County lieutenant is also good, but why the south?
After that, Cui Jian climbed up step by step.
Look at his resume, the county lieutenant for three years, the county magistrate for five years, and the shortest history of assassination.
Jia Pingan never thought that the so-called aristocratic family would be harmonious. Where there are people, there will be fighting, and where there are interests, there will be fighting...
The interests of the aristocratic family are even greater!
…
Yan Liben and Huang Wan were friendly, so Cui Jian's first day in the Ministry of Industry went smoothly.
After leaving the office, he returned home.
"Uncle is here."
His wife glanced at the corner of his mouth.
Cui Jian entered the study.
Cui Chen turned out to be much kinder.
"I have thought about it for a long time, but I have neglected you mother and child in those years. I have found the elders of the clan who are officials in Chang'an, and said a lot."
Cui Jian sat down silently.
Cui Chen sighed: "The elders didn't expect you to still be brooding over the past. But Saburo, the family is like this. If the family cares about everyone, you should know that it is unrealistic after you have been an official for many years."
Cui Jian is silent.
Cui Chen said: "The elders in the clan said that your son will pay full attention in the future, and your daughter will find a good family in the future... As for you, the clan has said that they will do their best to help and push you into the court."
The so-called advancing the court is the meaning of the prime minister.
Cui Chen sighed, "Nowadays the court is full of the emperor's confidantes, but we and other nobles are reduced to spectators. Saburo, we must work hard."
Who can resist the temptation of being a prime minister?
Who can resist the temptation to guarantee the future of their children?
Cui Chen coughed dryly, "There is a request from the clan."
Cui Jian raised his eyes.
Cui Chen said: "You worked hard as an official abroad in the early years, and you also met some miscellaneous people. Things of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. As Cui's son, you should pay more attention in the future. Those enemies in the family should be alienated. "
Cui Jian asked: "Uncle said a lot, but did he talk about Xiao Jia?"
Cui Chen nodded: "You should know Jia Ping'an's position. Now he is in line with the empress and wants to weaken the family. It is not an exaggeration to say that such a person is my Cui family's sworn enemy. Sanlang, stay away from him!"
He looked at Cui Jian.
Cui Jian looked at him and shook his head slowly but seriously.
…
Ask for a monthly pass!
