Qin Wangfu, back garden.

Xiao Yuan was walking with Gu Xue.

The two walked and chatted casually.

Gu Xue said: "Husband, I heard that you were transferred to Zhuyang to serve as the county commander, right?" After all, he is the first scholar. ”

"Huh." Xiao Yuan smiled and said: "Song Lian's talent is undoubted, but he doesn't have any experience and foundation as an official, I don't want to lose this kind of talent, but his performance is not satisfactory, what should I do, I can only transfer him to the grassroots level and train him first." ”

As he spoke, he added: "We can't deny his talent because of his nervousness and stage fright. ”

"It's still the husband who thinks it through." Gu Xue smiled slightly.

On the other hand, after the end of the exam, students from all over the country began to return to their hometowns one after another.

This matter was the responsibility of Shaofu Ling Jiangyi.

In front of the Qindu Post House, many scholars had already packed their bags and rushed to other places full of excitement.

When everyone was almost gone, Jiang Yi also called the person in charge of the post house: "Are you all done?" ”

"There is another person, who seems to be the top of the list of scholars." The person in charge respectfully returned.

"Oh?" Jiang Yi raised her eyebrows, and immediately found Song Lian's room.

After the two met, knowing Jiang Yi's identity, Song Lian hurriedly saluted: "Lord Jiang." ”

"No need to be polite." Jiang Yi returned the salute slightly, then looked at the simple bags he had packed, and said, "The other scholars are gone, the imperial court appointment has been issued, and you should rush to Zhuyang as soon as possible." ”

"Yes." Song Lian responded, but there was a little embarrassment on his face.

Seeing this, Jiang Yi couldn't help but ask, "Are you in trouble?" ”

Song Lian's face turned red, and he was entangled for a long time before he was full of embarrassment and said, "In the next ...... There is no more entanglement under it. ”

"Oh, that's right." Jiang Yi didn't make fun of him, but immediately asked someone to take out some silver, stuffed it into Song Lian's hand, and said:

"Song Lian, don't shake your ambitions because of a momentary embarrassment, this official knows that as the top of the list, being appointed as a county commander, how much you have grievances, but this is the king's good intentions."

"Have you ever thought about it, if the king now uses you as an envoy to the nations, and you go to the court of another country, but you can't say a word, even if you have talent, is it useless?"

As he spoke, he said: "Going to Zhuyang to be a county magistrate is not the best thing for you." ”

"You know what? This official is also the same as you, when he was poor, he also passed the examiner, and he also made a county order, and many of my ministers of Qin State have done county orders, including Lord Xiangguo. ”

Yes? Hearing him say this, Song Lian was taken aback at first, and then his face showed excitement.

"Let's go, I wish you a smooth journey, and if you govern Zhuyang well, the king will definitely see your political achievements." Jiang Yi patted him on the shoulder again.

"Thank you, Lord Jiang, today's words have made Song Lian Daigo empowered, great kindness, and he will definitely repay him one day!" Song is honest and salute.

"No, no." Jiang Yi smiled and waved her hand.

He is a smart man, and among all Xiao Yuan's courtiers, he is also the one who knows King Qin's mind the most.

With his encouragement, Song Lian threw away his depressed heart, began to regain his strength, and hurried to Zhuyang.

The place where he took office was his hometown.

In the court, in the face of the king, he is nervous and not good at words, but this does not mean that he is a mediocre talent.

With his talent, there is absolutely no problem in governing a county.

More than ten days later, Liangzhou.

Inside Nguyen Mansion.

Ruan Yang is suggesting that Ruan Ming ask someone to stop Song Lian, take him to the mansion, and set up a banquet to entertain him.

Song Lian is about to take office in Zhuyang, he will pass through Liangzhou, with the power of the Ruan family in Liangdi, the top of the list of scholars, of course they already know about such a sensational event.

However, when his eldest son heard this, he sneered and said, "Second brother, you are exalting him too much, right?" It's just a small county order, is it worth our Ruan family's banquet and hospitality? ”

When Ruan Ming heard this, he also followed: "Yes, Yang'er, although Song Lian is the top of the list, but my father has also heard that he is not very important, and the king has the intention of degrading him, and this person's future is worrying." ”

Ruan Yang said: "Father's words are bad, if the king is unwilling to use Song Lian's words, how can he be appointed as the county commander, you know, although the county order is small, but it is a local parent official, looking at all the scholars, although many people are higher than the county commander, but almost all of them are subordinate officials, or deputy positions, none of them are really in charge of local government affairs, it can be seen that the king has the intention of sharpening his people." ”

Ruan Yang is a person who is extremely smart, and he is not by the king's side, but he can guess the king's will from the king's various actions.

After hearing this, Ruan Ming couldn't help but take a light breath and said tentatively: "That...... Shall we treat him? ”

"I have to be invited, now I have a relationship with Song Lian Lala, maybe, when the time comes, it will be a big help in the officialdom." Ruan Yang said.

"Okay, listen to Yang'er." Ruan Ming is no longer entangled, because a banquet is really nothing to the Ruan family.

Subsequently, at Ruan Yang's suggestion, Song Lian was pulled by the Ruan family when he passed through Liangzhou and was warmly invited.

The latter couldn't be pushed away at all, and in the end he could only be invited into the Ruan family.

At noon that day, in the living room, Ruan Ming set up a banquet, accompanied by his second son Ruan Yang, and entertained Song Lian.

The Ruan family is very rich, and it is a family in Liangzhou, so what kind of delicacies and delicacies from the mountains and seas have come up.

During the banquet, everyone sat down separately, and after the wine and food were served, Ruan Ming, who was directly above, also picked up the wine glass and said with a smile:

"Lord Song has been running all the way, coming here, this official is here to toast you and go for you."

Ruan Ming is the imperial history of Liangzhou, although he is not Song Lian's direct boss, but in terms of official position, I don't know how much older than the county order.

No matter how Song Lian was, he could only hurriedly follow the cup, still a little shyly and said: "Where is it, Lord Ruan is too polite, and the lower officials are flattered." ”

"Huh?" Ruan Ming waved his hand and said: "This time, Lord Song is at the top of the list, I am really the pride of my northern scholars, this official has a little thin wine, these are all deserved, come, please drink this cup." ”

"Your Excellency, please ......"

The politeness of officialdom made Song Lian a little uncomfortable, but for him, this was not an experience.

The atmosphere of this banquet was not bad, and after it was over, Ruan Ming did not forget to send him out of the mansion in person.

"Adults stay ......"

"Lord Song has a good trip, ......"

Seeing that Song Lian had left, Ruan Ming still had a hypocritical look on his face with a smile.

"Father." Ruan Yang shouted beside him.

Only then did Ruan Ming restrain his expression and groaned: "Yang'er, you said that this Song Lian will have a future?" ”

"Definitely, his article has been published, and I am ashamed of myself if I have read it." Ruan Yang Zhengse said.
