1124 Gentle Strategy
- In Ye Nono's voice, Mo Ye came back to her senses, and she smiled a little distractedly.
Putting away her mind and returning to what Ye Nuonuo said, she suddenly thought of a question, and asked slightly: "Since it is tomorrow's business, why do you put it today...... Did she make an appointment? ”
"You're revealing that you haven't seen the spectacular scene of Kyoto's sea trade once." Ye Nuonuo said seriously: "If you want to get a good position to watch the spectacular scene, it is best to buy a ticket to see the harbor wharf, otherwise even if we go there tomorrow, we will only be able to watch the crowds." ”
Mo Ye was puzzled: "She still needs to buy a ticket to see the pier?" ”
Ye Nuonuo was stunned for a moment before she understood the meaning of her words, and sighed softly: "All along, she has been sitting in the car, watching the sea scenery through a plain veil, and there is a large circle of guards around her. That's a view, at most it's a walk-through, so this year she especially wants to stand on the stands on the shore and really experience the feeling of being fully immersed in the lively atmosphere! ”
"You must have instigated it, right?" Mo Ye suddenly laughed, "She's about to be led crazy by you." ”
Ye Nuonuo listened to her implicit words, and suddenly became a little unhappy, the corners of his mouth pursed, and said, "You mean to say that I am a wild girl?" I tell you, if I have to pretend to be a lady, I may not be worse than those ladies in the women's school, but when I don't have that playful heart, I don't bother to be pretentious. ”
"Uh-huh, I understand." Mo Ye nodded hurriedly and said with a smile: "You seem to have the same mood yesterday that you don't have today." ”
Ye Nuonuo thought back to what happened yesterday and quickly understood what Mo Ye was referring to. She didn't reply, but she couldn't help but feel ashamed on her face, and turned her head to look out the window, only letting Mo Ye see her side face. As a result, I couldn't see the scarlet that slowly appeared on her face.
"It's strange, why hasn't she come yet, it's really been a long wait." Ye Nuonuo put aside the topic stiffly, but actually thought about yesterday in his heart: strange, why did he become a little 'involuntarily' when he saw him? Alas...... Isn't that set of rules something I've always had trouble with? Why should I disguise myself in front of him? Haven't I become a liar?
Mo Ye glanced at Ye Nuonuo's side face, but she didn't think too much about it. I just felt that Ye Nuonuo just now was a little unreasonable. So I teased her, and at the same time teased the boring time of sitting and waiting.
Since she didn't want to say anything more about this issue, Mo Yezi didn't ask any more. With her gaze, she also looked out the window.
Both women were on their sides, their elbows resting on the window frame, their heads tilting out of the window. Not long after his eyes fell, a shout suddenly came from downstairs: "Miss-"
The voice was very open. On the contrary, it became sharper, but the last word dragged on for a long time, but Mo Ye heard that this voice seemed to come from an acquaintance, Ye Nuonuo's personal maid Xiaoyu.
It's just that Ye Nono, who was leaning against the window, has been since what he said just now. He became speechless, as if he was in a daze, and he was unaware of the call that came from the street downstairs.
Mo Ye saw this. I couldn't help but knock on the windowsill and reminded, "Nono." Just now I seem to hear Xiaoyu calling you downstairs. ”
Ye Nuonuo suddenly came back to his senses, still a little stunned, and said, "Who called me?" ”
Although Ye Nuonuo's words had already exposed her overly distracted behavior just now, Mo Ye couldn't answer at this moment, because the shout was just a momentary matter, and there was no follow-up, and even Mo Ye almost thought that he had heard it wrong.
The two looked at each other for a moment, then looked out the window together.
Unfortunately, a convoy of horse-drawn carriages suddenly came to the relatively empty street just now, and the street suddenly became a little congested. There were three carriages in front of and behind the carriage, and although there were no other attendants in front of and behind the carriage, they still blocked some things on the street, making the two women who were looking for someone out of the window a little anxious.
In the inner city of Kyoto, where the horse restriction order is extremely strict, the slow speed of these three carriages should be considered decent, but Ye Nuonuo, who was in the teahouse, saw this scene and hoped that the three carriages could go faster. At least on the street at the entrance of the teahouse, hurry up, because although she missed the call, when she just swept her eyes down the teahouse, she saw half a familiar figure across the street.
The reason why it is half of the figure is precisely because there is still half of it blocked by the carriage.
Ye Nuonuo suddenly thought in his heart, retracted his neck and leaned out of the window, and then left the tea table, jumping high.
Sure enough, as she jumped an inch, she saw Xiaoyu who was blocked behind the carriage, but she also saw three other people. These three Ye Nuonuo are also very familiar, but when these three people stand together, it makes Ye Nuonuo feel a little bad in his heart.
She couldn't help but let out a "huh".
Next, she looked at Mo Ye, but found that Mo Ye didn't know when it started, and she didn't know what novel things she had discovered, so she was in a daze.
Ye Nuonuo thought of the young man among the other three people she saw, and she suddenly felt a trace of urgency in her heart, and said secretly: "She won't see it too, right?" ”
Ye Nuonuo was anxious because the few acquaintances she saw, except for Xiaoyu, were the princess who arrived as promised and a female official who was responsible for her safety out of the palace, which was actually equivalent to a female guard.
It's just that...... Why is Wang Zhe in that queue?
A long time ago, Ye Nuonuo knew Wang Zheshi's identity as the third prince. When she was only four years old, she went to the backyard of the palace with her father, and then went there more than once. At that time, Wang Zhe would still live in the palace of the harem prince more frequently, and she was also familiar with Wang Zhe from that time.
Later, Wang Zhe gradually traveled outside the palace, and Ye Nuonuo also saw some friends that Wang Zhe made outside the palace, and at that time Wang Zhe told Ye Nuonuo one thing: without his consent, she should not reveal his identity in front of those friends from all over the world.
From the beginning of the unknown reason, to the recent years gradually understand, no matter what, Ye Nuonuo unswervingly maintained the advice given to her by Wang Zhe.
Ye Nuonuo believes that when the environment requires it, he is now very proficient in cooperating with Wang Zhe to sing a 'double reed opera'. But today, when he saw Wang Zhe and the princess appear in the market together, Ye Nuonuo began to think about a question for the first time.
Does the princess know about this?
After a quick thought, Yeno felt that he was not sure about this. Wang Zhe shouldn't have thought that he would need to introduce his friends in front of the princess, right?
After all, it is rare for a princess to leave the palace without permission, and the female official next to the princess is even less familiar with this, as long as she meets Mo Ye, Wang Zhe's identity is secret. It's bound to be exposed!
The identity of the princess. When she fell into the water and was saved by Mo Ye that day, it had already been revealed, but if Wang Zhe's identity was revealed in front of Mo Ye. What will happen?
Ye Nuonuo suddenly had an idea in his heart, and for the first time he questioned the promise he promised Wang Zhe.
The contradictions in his thoughts could not find an explanation that could convince him for a while, and Ye Nuonuo shook his head slightly. In the end, her mind returned to her respectful and loving brother Zhe, and decided to ask him personally before finding a chance. still maintains the agreed responsibility to continue to help him block his identity.
Approaching Mo Ye's side, Ye Nuonuo followed her gaze and looked, but found that at the angle occupied by Mo Ye, not to mention the three people standing across the street who were blocked by the carriage. Even a piece of their clothes can't reach it.
Ye Nuonuo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but ask, "Sister Mo, what are you looking at?" ”
"Carriage." Mo Ye's casual tone. It was revealed that her attention was now all directed to the carriage downstairs.
But it's not so much that she's looking at a carriage, to be precise. She was supposed to be looking at a piece of paper in the carriage.
Just now, a gust of wind suddenly blew the curtain on the side of the carriage, and at that moment, the middle of the three carriages slowly passing through the street reached the same angle as the window on the teahouse, so that Mo Ye was 'lucky' to see a piece of paper spread out on a low desk in the middle of the carriage.
The graphics on the paper, Mo Ye felt a little familiar, she secretly pondered for a moment, and her eyes changed slightly. However, when she wanted to take a few more looks, she saw the wind passing and the curtain hanging.
Mo Ye didn't give up, so his eyes were firmly fixed on the hanging curtain, waiting and looking forward to the next gust of wind coming in time.
It seemed that it was in his mind, with his own divine help, and before the carriage in the middle had completely left the teahouse, suddenly another gust of wind came and successfully opened the curtain.
Mo Ye's eyes widened slightly, condensing all his spirit, wanting to see the paper unfolded on the low case in the car again.
But at the moment when the curtain was lifted, Mo Ye's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.
She didn't see the piece of paper again, but she saw the people in the car. The piece of paper had been rolled into a thin tube and was held in the man's hand.
The man seemed to be very wary and concerned about the piece of paper, although the curtain on the carriage window was lifted for the first time by the sudden wind, which made him unprepared, so when the wind rose again and the curtain flew again, the man in the carriage had put the paper away in advance, and cast his eyes far out of the window, scanning vigilantly all the angles of the carriage that could be seen from the angle from which he was sitting.
There is a word to describe this kind of behavior, which is called counter-reconnaissance.
Mo Ye didn't know the word, but she could see the vigilance, defensiveness, and sharpness in the eyes of the man in the car.
In fact, at the previous glance, Mo Ye also did it unintentionally, but at this moment, when her gaze met the gaze of the man in the car, she felt a little as if she had done something bad and was discovered by the owner.
She didn't have time to think about it, maybe the man's gaze was sharp, but maybe it wasn't necessarily looking at herself? The private window of the teahouse facing the street is not the only place where she is.
Just when Mo Ye was slightly stunned, she suddenly felt a force behind her, and she was suddenly dragged into the teahouse.
Mo Ye, who was focusing on other places, was suddenly dragged like this and almost fell off the chair!
She turned her head and saw a guy in this teahouse. It seems that he is not the only one who is dragging him, and in the corner of Mo Ye's eyes, Ye Nuonuo is also falling on the chair.
After the teahouse guy let go of the hand that was holding the clothes of the two, he immediately made another salute and explained a few words. It turned out that this guy heard a loud noise from upstairs - in fact, it was the sound that Ye Nuonuo had just made when he jumped high - and the guy in the teahouse was not at ease, so he went upstairs to take a look, but saw the two girls put their heads out of the window, stretched out for a long time, and looked selfless.
Suddenly seeing this scene, this guy was afraid that something would happen. didn't dare to make a sound at first, but when he approached lightly, he decisively stretched out his hand and pulled them back.
A little friction, just make it clear, although this teahouse guy behaved a little impatient and rude, but the intention was good. After Ye Nuonuo and Mo Ye calmed down, they understood this. Not only did he not express his displeasure at this incident. I also thanked this guy.
Seeing that these two guests are very reasonable and a little girl, the behavior of excessive curiosity just now is normal. The teahouse guy was interested, opened the conversation, and said with a smile: "Seeing that the two young ladies were so fascinated just now, don't they also think that the three carriages are very magnificent?" ”
Yeno didn't think so at all. So she was the first to say no, but she hadn't spoken yet. was preempted by Mo Ye.
"I don't think it's magnificent." Mo Ye smiled faintly, "It's just that under the condition that Kyoto's horse restriction order is so strict, whoever travels has to travel in three cars, which is a bit extravagant." ”
"Well...... Extravagance and grandeur are often family members. The teahouse guy secretly pondered the look on Mo Ye's face. I said in my heart: Didn't you just see it almost fascinated? At this time, I don't care. But he said verbally: "It's grand enough, our whole teahouse is talking about it!" ”
Mo Ye asked casually: "What are you talking about?" ”
"This young lady is young and may be a little less involved in the world. I don't know. The teahouse guy pondered for a moment and continued: "Look at the system of this carriage. It is likely that it was sent by the Prime Minister's Office. However, there are other tea guests who said just now, this kind of trip, it seems that it is not for business trips, and there is not a single entourage! ”
"Prime Minister......" Mo Ye hesitated slightly, his mind skimmed over what the teahouse guy said, and gathered his thoughts.
When she was a student at Lizheng College, the most common thing she did every day was to read 'leisure' books in the library. To be precise, the library managed by Chai Fuzi does not include the books of the highest academic rank of the academy. The group of scholars in the main academy will read the books involved, which can be regarded as containing some knowledge of fame and political system, which cannot be seen in the junior and kindergarten schools below the main academy.
Despite this, Mo Ye was still able to filter out some impressions of the official rank of 'prime minister' from all the books he had read. Because this position is the highest position among all the ministers below the monarch, it is mentioned in several 'idle books': Xiangquan is the representative of the highest power among all officials except the imperial power.
As soon as Mo Ye thought of this, he heard the guy repeat the previous words again: "Miss is young and expensive, maybe you can't understand it." ”
The man took his leave and went downstairs, without further gossiping.
Mo Ye had no choice but to look at the other person in the private room.
In this regard, because Ye Nuono grew up in Kyoto, he was familiar with the neighborhood, and he often had the opportunity to follow his father to the minister's palace, so it was natural that he knew a little more than Mo Ye.
Seeing Mo Ye's gaze on him, Ye Nuonuo immediately thought about it and said: "I heard that there are many guests in the Prime Minister's mansion, and they are the kind of people who are talented but don't love Mingju. Recently, several major events have occurred in the DPRK and China, resulting in the second official self-examination incident in the 10 years since the founding of the dynasty. However, those guests in his family are not bound by titles, and they will be relatively freer. ”
After listening to her explanation, Mo Ye understood a little.
Ye Nuonuo added: "That guy has been saying the word 'magnificent' just now, because if the person who travels this time is really just a guest in the Prime Minister's Mansion, then this pomp and circumstance is really generous." The guy was right, grandeur and extravagance, sometimes just like to be in groups. ”
In the middle of her words, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded at the end of the staircase at the end of the corridor outside the private room, from far and near. As soon as her words fell, she saw a person walk into this elegant house, and the two girls looked sideways together, and saw that the person who came was Xiaoyu.
Ye Nuonuo saw Xiaoyu and the princess together just now, but now he saw her go upstairs alone, because Wang Zhe's sudden appearance made Ye Nuonuo realize a not very good problem.
Obviously, he had made an appointment to meet here in advance, Xiaoyu went upstairs and went straight to the room where Ye Nuono was, and the first thing he said after entering the door was: "Miss, Her Royal Highness the princess has left." ”
"Woo ......" Ye Nuonuo heard this, and first made a 'quiet' move.
Although the etiquette and rules of the royal family in this dynasty are not as strict and rigid as those of the previous dynasty, and occasionally the royal family or concubines change their appearance as ordinary people and wander around the market, this kind of thing is no longer a legend, but the news that the royal family plays in the market. It's better to keep a low profile.
Ye Nuonuo was afraid that she would tell Wang Zhe about it, so he hurriedly added: "I know." ”
Xiao Yu saw Ye Nuonuo's eyes flickering, swept around, a little uneasy and deliberately instructed, and immediately understood, and did not say anything else on this matter.
However, Mo Ye looked at the two masters and servants, and they said a word, and it ended quickly. She was puzzled for a moment. Immediately asked, "What happened?" ”
"Alas, what else can be done to be discovered. Bring it back! Ye Nuonuo sighed lightly and revealed the matter, "It seems that she can't do this kind of thing alone!" ”
What she was talking about was the princess sneaking out of the palace. Mo Ye also just found out, but agreed with her judgment.
Xiao Yu couldn't help but ask, "Miss." What do we do next? ”
"Of course I can't run and drag her back at this time." Ye Nuonuo shook his head, suddenly turned his eyes to look at Xiao Yu, his eyes lit up, and said, "Xiao Yu." Buying tickets will have to work for you. ”
……
Ankang Road in the north of the city, Prime Minister's Mansion.
At the gates. After seeing the carriage carrying Cen Chi go away, Prime Minister Shi Jing and his third son also turned around and went back to the mansion together.
The garden is already full of new greenery. But those fresh and tender green leaves caught Shi Jing's eyes, but they seemed to be rendered by his calm gaze to render the color of dry winter.
Shi Xin, who was walking beside his father, was not in the mood to look at the new greenery on the side of the road, but he still had some faint sadness in his heart from the cherished words he said when he said goodbye to Cen Chi just now.
For Cen Chi, a guest in the house, Shi Xin sometimes couldn't tell whether he used him more, or whether he really had a friendship.
His father's admonition reminded him to ring in his ears from time to time, and when he thought of this, Shi Xin's eyes were slightly biased, although he didn't see the look in his father's eyes clearly, he could clearly perceive the depth of his face, which made Shi Xin calm down immediately.
When he was about to enter the living room, Shi Jing suddenly sighed: "This month, there seem to be a lot of sick characters in Beijing, and doctors with some skills are all entangled in something." ”
Shi Xin pondered for a moment after hearing this, and after entering the hall, he said softly: "If Yan Yizheng is not a thief at home, maybe ......."
"The one who steals things and can steal them to his house is also a character." Shi Jing raised his hand and interrupted his son's words, he secretly held his breath, and said: "Don't steal anything else, just pick up his medicine box, this thief has to be a big person." ”
The servants standing in the hall saw Master Shi beckoning, and hurriedly bowed down in response, and hurriedly walked out of the hall to prepare tea.
Hearing his father's words come to this point, Shi Xin's eyes froze, and in an instant, he showed a look of surprise: "Could it be ......?"
At this time, he was still unbelievable, Yan Guang, as the most qualified elder of the Yan family and the most authoritative physician representative of the Taiyi Bureau, actually lied about what he valued the most?
This behavior is too far from his image!
Although Shi Xin is young, he is also a person who has been in officialdom for a few years, plus before he joined the office, he could get his father's teachings when he was at home, so he is naturally familiar with some rules in officialdom, and people's hearts cannot be regarded as the most basic common sense.
But Yan Guang is a different person, and it seems that his character cannot be measured by such rules.
Yan Guangguan served as the chief physician of the Imperial Medical Bureau, and like many of the courtiers of the current court, he was a relict of the previous court. Although Yan Guang has been a medical practitioner for decades, and his official fortune has withstood the subversive baptism of changing the dynasty, and his qualifications are quite heavy, he has never been able to enter the honorary position of minister.
All the imperial doctors and students of the Taiyi Bureau are never allowed to be involved in politics or discuss politics, which is a strict order that has continued for most of the previous dynasty. Now that the emperor surnamed Wang is in charge of the operation of the dynasty, this decree is still retained without any change.
And the pattern of Beijing officials, because of this decree that has lasted for more than a hundred years, has naturally formed a division. If it is said that the longer the people in the officialdom are mixed, the more exquisite they are, and even the faces of Buddhas and ghosts, then the longer the medical officers in the Taiyi Bureau have been in office, the more peaceful they are.
Not because the Taiyi Bureau is a good hall, but because the promotion road of the Taiyi Bureau is special, and it is based on virtue.
In this special department, a doctor with superb medical skills may not be able to rise to the top with his ability, and if a medical officer is step-by-step in his own work, even if he is mediocre in medical skills compared to others, this person's status can be seen to slowly rise.
About fourteen years ago, the mother of the Ling Emperor of the previous dynasty was seriously ill, and Yan Guang, who had just been promoted to the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau, was a little helpless. Adhering to the heart of a doctor who saves people, Yan Guang asked Emperor Ling for a gift and recommended his friend Liao Shilai to treat the Queen Mother.
Although the Spirit Emperor is indulged in pleasure. But for his biological mother, he is indeed very filial. Because he was concerned about the safety of his mother, Emperor Ling didn't care about Liao Shi's unknown identity that almost suddenly came out of the ground, and allowed him to enter the palace to check the pulse of the queen mother.
Unexpectedly, Liao Shi really took out a kind of medicinal powder that he carried with him as a medicine guide as recommended by Yan Guang, and prepared a dose of medicine. woke up the unconscious Queen Mother. Because of this. Liao Shi was personally given the reputation of 'pharmacist' by Emperor Ling.
However, Liao Shi only rescued the Queen Mother 'awake', but did not save her.
Wake up from the first dose of the drug. The Queen Mother lived for less than a month before she suddenly died! And this time, the condition took a turn for the worse, even more suddenly than the previous time, and the life was gone.
The sudden death of the Queen Mother. The Spirit Emperor was furious, and at the same time. Liao Shi was also attacked by a group of medical officers of the Taiyi Bureau.
Because during Liao Shi's treatment of the Queen Mother, although he insisted on using a medicine he brought with him as a medicine guide, in addition, other compounds and cooking utensils were provided by the Taiyi Bureau. The death of the Queen Mother. The medical officers of the Taiyi Bureau are therefore also responsible.
However, in the face of the furious emperor, the large group of medical officers did not want to be dragged down by the mistake of a never-famous Tulang. And to go to the funeral of the dead old woman of the emperor's family, the only way to shirk all the responsibilities is to shirk all the responsibilities.
Initially. Because of the recommender Yan Guang's efforts to protect people, Emperor Ling was still a little hesitant about whether to punish Liao Shi severely. Yan Guangwei Liao Shi defended the reasoning, and Emperor Ling could still listen to it in his mind at that time.
But the sad thing is that because Liao Shi not only does not have a trace of fame in the world, he is also extremely ugly. And sometimes when he laughs wildly, there will be a little bit of sparkle in his eyes. Some medical officers of the Taiyi Bureau noticed this, and after conspiring, they covered him with the notoriety of the poison doctor's successor, but this sentence made the Spirit Emperor believe it.
In the end, if it weren't for Yan Guang's life to protect his friends, and the emperor did not find strong evidence of the relationship between Liao Shi and the poison doctor's successor, Liao Shi might really want to be different.
Liao Shi's final punishment was permanent imprisonment and imprisonment.
The people who were originally watching this matter coldly estimated that with Liao Shi's appearance, he would die of old age after living in the prison for a few years, so they didn't fall into the well again.
But he never thought that Liao Shi was extremely hard-hitting, in the prison where there was no sunlight all day long, and rats and insects were rampant, he not only lived for nearly five years, but also luckily lived until the fall of the Zhou Dynasty and the new monarchy's decree of amnesty to the emperor.
But when Liao Shi was released from prison, there was no joy or anger on his face, and he only said coldly: "Liao is alive and will not treat anyone again." ”
Now it seems that these are all gossip, but what happened to Liao Shi has made a certain atmosphere in the Taiyi Bureau more and more solid. No one will dare to stand out in front of everyone anymore, and in the face of the more serious matters for the Taiyi Bureau, it must be the results that the medical officers have discussed with each other, and then one of them will take the lead.
I don't want everyone to share the burden, but it's best to share the credit equally. Prudence and precision are not only one of the key principles of medical morality, but a certain kind of cautious feeling has now infected and changed everyone in the Taiyi Bureau.
The people in the Taiyi Bureau may not all be virtuous and benevolent saints, but they must definitely not make a single mistake or omission. Even if you do, at least don't show your mistakes.
Yan Guang spanned two dynasties and served as the chief physician of the Taiyi Bureau, and he has always done so. I don't know if it is shaped by the environment of the Taiyi Medical Bureau, or because of Yan Guang's own tempered heart.
However, as long as a normal person maintains a posture mentally for more than ten years, even if he plays a part of this image at first, it will affect his heart after so many years of accumulation.
If Yan Guang has been in the position of the Taiyi Bureau for more than ten years, he has not yet retired after the age of sixteen, and the emperor has not yet drawn up the actions of candidates, this is all because of his meticulous style, which makes people impeccable, then this time the theft of his medicine box can be regarded as an opportunity that some people in the Taiyi Bureau can grasp if they are interested in seeking promotion.
Although Yan Guang lost the medicine box, it didn't seem to have dealt a fatal blow to his work at the moment, but what those medical officers under him could find was this far-fetched condition.
It's just because the Yan family's incident is unbearable, just like what Shi Jing said at this moment, in this matter, if you want to make some articles, be careful, maybe you can do it.
If you wait for Yan Guang to slowly equip his lost things. But even that opportunity was lost.
The servant had already returned to the flower hall with the tea he had made. Gently resting the teacup on the table by the hands of the master and the third young master, the servant saw that the two masters were pondering, and did not dare to pestle in the flower hall to obstruct the eyes, so he retreated outside with interest and stood by the door, so as to respond to the master's orders at any time.
Shi Jing's words. It aroused many clues in the hearts of his three sons.
In recent years, there has been a peaceful scene between the government and the opposition. There is no war outside, the border defense is stable, and as for the affairs within the national territory. The emperor has been doing things very carefully to restore the people's livelihood, and the ministers of various departments are also actively cooperating with the ability to contribute, but this seems to have little to do with the Privy Council.
Shi Xin stayed in the Privy Council, and he felt unusually idle.
In addition to the holidays provided by the job. Most of the day's work is a pilgrimage meeting every five days. Standing in the main hall and listening to the deliberations between the ministers and the emperor-most of the affairs related to the people's livelihood and social welfare, it is difficult for him to say a word--at other times, if Shi Xin needs to ask for leave, most of them can be approved on the same day. And it's easy to take a whole day off.
In extraordinary times, the work pressure of the Privy Council and the changes in the situation are extremely strong and complex, so they are idle in their spare time. It was an alternative reward from the emperor to this department, and most of the ministers in other departments also agreed with this.
But Shi Xin himself doesn't think so.
If there's nothing going on at work. He often deliberated on the changes in the pattern of court officialdom on his own. He won't actually do anything because of his deliberations, he just wants to rub his brain with this, and he doesn't want his judgment of the situation to become dull because of his long-term idleness.
Shi Jing's attitude towards the third son's habit and 'exercise' method is biased. However, although Shi Jing mentioned the matter of the Yan family just now, he didn't think too much, his contemplation was because of another thing.
After all, he is a certain age person, and he has often worked late into the night recently, and Shi Jing has felt some symptoms of internal fire floating in his body. Taking a sip of sweet tea soup and moistening his somewhat dry throat, when Shi Jing put down the teacup, he slightly suppressed some of the emotions he had stirred up when he was contemplating just now, glanced at his son, who was especially contemplative, and asked casually: "Are you still thinking about the Yan family?" ”
Shi Xin nodded, and when he heard his father's question, he also collected his thoughts and picked up the teacup.
"Don't think about it." Shi Jing said three words lightly, and then he was speechless.
However, Shi Xin heard a hint of unfinished words from the three words his father said, but he didn't know why his father didn't continue to say the second half of the sentence...... Or did he give up mentioning it, as he said himself?
There is a slight difference between not being helpful in mentioning and abandoning mention.
After Shi Xin picked up the teacup on the table, he lifted the lid and blew the tea soup, but he hesitated for a moment and didn't drink it, then covered the lid and put the teacup back on the table.
Shi Jing, who was sitting opposite him, saw his move, his eyes moved, and said, "When I said goodbye to Cen Chi just now, I didn't see you so impetuous. ”
Shi Xin originally thought that his father's contemplation just now was also because of the Yan family's affairs, but when he looked at his father's eyes, he made some other discoveries.
According to the words, he put down his pondering about the affairs of the Yan family, Shi Xin was silent for a moment, and then hesitated: "Father is busy with affairs, and he also wants to take the time to come back, just to bid farewell to a doorman?" ”
"It's not that simple, Cen Chi is not a simple Qingke." The crow's feet at the corners of Shi Jing's eyes deepened slightly.
Just half an hour ago, the father and son sent Cen Chi away. And the reason why Cen Chi left this time was a little sudden, not because he was going to travel far away, it seemed that he was also forced to do so.
Shi Xin was silent again, and the thin eyebrows were inadvertently raised, faintly revealing that the clues in his mind at the moment were extremely complicated.
If he didn't think about the affairs of the Yan family, he would feel troubled.
After all, the affairs of the Yan family are foreign affairs, but if Shi Xin calms down, he will unconsciously think about half of his own family's affairs. Regarding Cen Chi, there is a contradiction in Shi Xinxin.
Seeing that the expression on his son's face changed slightly, but he didn't speak, Shi Jing took a sip of tea slowly, and then said in a flat tone: "You will doubt him, that's normal." I doubt him too, but he is not the only one who doubts. ”
"Father is ......" Shi Xin's eyes moved, and he finally spoke.
"That's it." Shi Jing put down the teacup and said slowly: "San'er, even if the situation is really as you suspect, then what? The battle in that land will inevitably be a struggle between countries, and in this context, what can one or two people change if they participate halfway? Although the battle of the country is also the battle of people, Cen Chi is just a lonely person. ”
For a long time, in Shi Xin's impression, his father's attitude towards Cen Chi has never completely let go of doubts. But why, what his father said at this time seemed to tell him not to doubt Cen Chi? (To be continued)
