Xin Zhi stuck out her tongue at Xin Yi, and seemed to remember something, and said suspiciously: "Dad, didn't you go to the palace today?

Xin Qi's face was embarrassed.

Xin Yi raised his eyebrows: "Wangfu, what's going on, Dad, you haven't said it?"

Xin Qiqi hesitated and hesitated. Xin Zhi was quick to speak, like a sparrow, chirping: "The first two days." A few people from the Yue Wangfu came to join the army and carried the dowry of the palace. said that although his father was dismissed, he couldn't bear to bury it. His Royal Highness the King of Yue is willing to hire his father as the chief of the palace (Note 1). ”

"The staff of the Yue Wangfu (Note 2)?" Xin Yi was stunned, "But the fief of the Yue King is in Shuzhou, if his father worships the history of the Wangfu, can he not follow him to Shuzhou?"

"It doesn't have to be. Yue Wangfu said that the prince also has a mansion in Chang'an, and every festival and court, the prince will go back to Beijing to live. So as long as Dad stays in Chang'an and helps the prince take care of this mansion. Xin Zhi's dark eyes rolled slightly.

Xin Yi's eyes lit up. The fat is poor, and the beauty difference is fat.

Changshi, that is, the staff of the palace, the official to the fifth grade, is not counted in the official system of the Great Wei, and only reports to his own prince. Therefore, Xin Qi was dismissed, and the court could not enter, but he was attached to the prince as a staff, and the food and money were still received.

The most important thing is that Xin Qi doesn't have to follow into the river. King Yue's food is in Shuzhou, and Xin Qi only has to manage a mansion in Chang'an, at the door of his own house.

can enter the hall to worship the five-grade officials, do not miss the official career, receive a share of the salary, and only manage a mansion, like a housekeeper, leisurely and leisurely. It's a good thing that can't even be found with a lantern.

But the more he figured it out, Xin Yi's eyebrows frowned: "But, this kind of staff who obviously releases water, does King Yue have too much money and no place to use it, or what, he just picked up his father? There are so many officials dismissed by Great Wei, and there are many strange people in the world, I don't see King Yue hire a staff member and hire a long history?"

Xin Zhi blinked in confusion, and simply pushed the pot to Xin Qi: "Sixth sister, you ask Daddy! Daddy has accepted all the gifts!"

"Dad, you accepted all the gifts?" Xin Yiru grabbed the cat by the tail and immediately jumped up.

Xin Qi coughed awkwardly. Glancing at the decayed pillars in the corner of the building, this newly built house "can only live in people", and it is not closed to pay attention to "carved beams and painted buildings".

Then I thought about the overstretched treasury, a copper coin broken in half and spent in half, and he was more reasonable, and raised his head and said, "Yes." Now that the whole clan has been dismissed, the family is in a difficult situation. Why don't you want money from someone's door?"

Xin Yi was anxious: "Since you have accepted it, you have become an official! How can there be any reason to not go after receiving a gift? No matter how difficult it is to make a living, you are not so shameless! Daddy, you have never been like this! Are you poor and confused now! Go back! Go back immediately!"

"What's wrong with receiving that kid's gifts! In the future, this kid will have to give gifts to the old man! Who wants his kindness and asks him for food on credit! Long history is rare? I have never heard of his father-in-law being an official for his son-in-law!" Xin Qi was also anxious, and shouted with a stiff neck.

Xin Yi and Xin Zhi were stunned.

Xin Qi called King Yue "boy", inexplicably "I have to give a gift to the old man in the future", and the frightened "father-in-law's son-in-law", coupled with Xin Qi's straightforward blowing beard on his face, things suddenly became so weird.

“…… Father...... You say it again......" Xin Yi swallowed, suspecting that he had just had a.

“…… Father...... You say it again......" Xin Zhi also swallowed and plucked out her ears and eyes.

Xin Qi chuckled in his heart. I realized that I had slipped my mouth.

He immediately looked like a thief who had been caught, his old face couldn't hang up, he was so anxious that he slapped his mouth a few times, and his heart was crossed, and he responded: "That's it!

Anyway. Xin Qi left in a hurry, as if he was afraid of being seen as flawed, his footsteps staggered, and he almost hit the doorpost.

There were only Xin Yi and Xin Zhi left in the study building.

Xin Yi shook her head and threw out the words that seemed to have gone wrong, after all, if she took it seriously, half a word would make a storm in the city, maybe Xin Qi was faint, maybe she understood it wrong.

In short, it can't be true.

"Don't think about it. Just now, my father said that he was in a hurry. Don't take it seriously. Xin Yi patted the spontaneously stupid Xin Zhi, "You go and keep an eye on Daddy, have you gone to the palace?" If you don't go to work after receiving the gift, this kind of heartless thing, I can't do it. ”

"Okay! Ah Zhi must be staring at Daddy stepping into the palace!"

"Wait, bring me the gift from the palace. I've always found this weird. Xin Yi said again.

Xin Zhi responded, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. I still heard her voice from afar, which was happier than the cicadas on the trees, "Daddy wants to be the head of the palace."

Half a moment. Xin Zhi asked the little maid to bring the royal courtesy. Xin Yi's last trace of doubt was finally dispelled.

She insisted on seeing the ceremony. It's because I feel that the errand is too fat, and I am too fat. Worried about the design of someone with a heart, sincerely stumbling on Xin Qi.

After all, Xin Qi is not a great sage, and his official career is without merit or fault, so how could he be smashed on his head if he is so close to taking white food.

However, after looking at the courtesy of the palace, she felt that she was too careful. Maybe it is really that King Yue looks down on Xin Qi and is willing to use the name of "hired as a long history" to fund Xinfu, which is not unreasonable.

Dowry is ordinary. A piece of jade.

The gentleman is a jade bede. Yu Jue is not the best, at most it is a little white, and it can also be bought in decent jade shops on Chang'an Street.

However, the jade Jueqi is not in the jade itself, but in the carving on the jade. The palm-sized jade face actually carved the entire "Yan Zhao Wang's Recruitment of Talents" (Note 3), the twelve strings of jade of King Zhao, and the gold and gold in his hand, are all lifelike, and the beard is clearly visible.

Even if the jade is as ordinary as a folk object, this carving is enough to show the royal style. Whether you know the jade jue or not, just looking at this painting, you can be amazed and extraordinary.

"Interesting. It's not too expensive, and it's not rash. Xin Yi was overjoyed, picked up the jade jue and played with it, brushed his fingertips over the jade carving, and suddenly froze.

Xin Yi's eyes lit up.

The frozen lake, which had been congested for many days, suddenly melted, and a clear spring suddenly ran through her mind, and there was a gap in the poetry that had plagued her for many days.

There was a slight sound. The light is shining.

Because she was too excited, Xin Yi's fingertips on Yu Jue trembled, she hurriedly put Yu Jue away, stumbled out of the house, couldn't even suppress her demeanor, and ran to the upper room like a child.

"Dad! Ah Zhi! I thought of it! The solution of the poem! The poem can not only be read, but also read!"

Immediately, the eyes of the entire Xin Mansion lit up.

Immediately, a notice was posted at the door of Xinfu: "A poem and a thousand gold".

The simple four words have once again become the hottest topic in Chang'an. There was a lot of discussion in the neighborhood, just such a notice, I don't know why, even if I guessed that it was related to the gift of poems as a national gift, I didn't know the intention of the Xin girl.

A poem and a thousand gold. First of all, regardless of whether a poem is worth this price, I have only heard of "a word of gold", and I have never heard of "a poem of a thousand gold".

Immediately, under the speculative eyes of the people in the city, Du Yunzhi stepped into the Xin Mansion in the dust.

"Miss Xin, I haven't seen you for a long time. "Xinfu Library, Du Yunzhi saluted to Xin Yi, the mountains and rivers between the eyebrows are long, and there is no embarrassment of the past estrangement.

"The scholar came alone?" Xin Yi sat on the top, raising his eyebrows.

"Yes and no. I also came with a pen below. A poem is a thousand gold, and a thousand gold is also. Du Yunzhi untied the book basket on his back and took out a wolf hair.
