1209. The Largest Officer
Li Goudan buried his head in the room and read a book.
His honest father was on the side, wiping left and right, helping him clean up the room.
Occasionally looking up at Li Goudan, a rather honest smile will appear on his face.
It was as if this room was the holiest place for him, and there was no room for dust.
And Li Goudan is his greatest pride.
This honest farmer probably never thought that his child would be able to get ahead at such an age.
Ten-year-old lifter.
What is lifting people?
That's the old man!
This is something he couldn't even think about before.
Don't say that it is the old man who lifts people, but the rich businessman Ma who takes care of them a lot, and in his heart, he is already a big man in the sky.
And since his son passed the exam, even Master Ma has been much more enthusiastic about them, and even has the intention of letting his granddaughter and Goudan marry.
In the past, Li Goudan's father was of course unwanted.
Only now, but he doesn't dare to say yes.
Li Goudan seemed to have grown up all of a sudden, and he did something he didn't even dare to think about.
So, he just said that this matter will be up to the dog in the future.
"Knock knock!"
Just as Li Goudan's father looked at Li Goudan and smirked, there was a knock on the door outside the house.
Li Goudan looked up and looked at the door.
His father hurriedly said, "I'll go open the door and continue reading." ”
After that, he hurriedly walked to the door.
When I opened the door, there was a little old man with a goatee with a warm smile, but with some temperament on his face.
"Who are you?"
Li Goudan's father had no impression of this person, and asked suspiciously.
Come to the human: "May I ask if this is where Master Li Zhaoen Li stays?" ”
Li Goudan's father was afraid that he might not even understand the word "stay", but when he heard that someone called his son his master, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
There's so much pride in this smile.
He looked inside the house and said, "Son, I'm looking for it." ”
Then he got out of the way.
Li Goudan looked up at the door in the room and got up from his chair, "May I ask where did the seniors come from?" ”
The little old man with a goatee smiled at Li Goudan and said, "Master Li is polite." My lord would like to invite you to the house for a while. ”
Li Goudan was slightly puzzled and looked at his father.
His father asked again, "Dare to ask which master it is?" ”
The old man with the goatee only said: "It's inconvenient to say, you will know after you go." ”
Li Goudan's father looked at Li Goudan and waited for him to make up his mind.
Li Goudan groaned slightly, and finally nodded, "Then please lead the way!" ”
At his age, he often doesn't know how to reject people. Although the knowledge is thick, as Chen Wenlong said, it is still a pure heart.
"Please!"
The little old man with a goatee stretched out his hand to the outside of the house, and then walked out with Li Goudan and his son.
Out of the inn, there was already a sedan chair waiting outside.
The little old man with a goatee invited Li Goudan, father and son, to get into the sedan chair.
In the end, the sedan chair went to Chen Wenlong's mansion.
It was Chen Wenlong who wanted to see Li Goudan.
Obviously, this deputy state minister in charge of the economy has a love for Li Goudan, a young junior who has deep insights into economics.
The sedan chair did not stop until the courtyard of the Chen family's mansion.
The little old man with a goatee made the palanquin bearers drop off the palanquin.
Chen Wenlong was sitting under the willow tree in the courtyard, at the stone table.
Li Goudan and his son had just gotten off the sedan chair, and Li Goudan saw Chen Wenlong, who was looking at him with a smile.
This made his face show a rather nervous look for a moment, and he saluted: "Student Li Zhaoen has seen the examiner. ”
He probably may not know Chen Wenlong's position in the court, but at that time, Chen Wenlong spoke in front of all the candidates, and the identity of the chief examiner must be true.
Li Goudan's father was even more nervous than Li Goudan, and he actually knelt on the ground and shouted, "The grass people have seen the master." ”
"Haha!"
Chen Wenlong couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw the father and son like this.
The little old man with a goatee, who was actually a housekeeper, also chuckled beside him.
Immediately, Chen Wenlong said: "There is no need to be polite. The old man invited them to come, just to talk about it privately, and there was no need to pay attention to these red tapes. ”
As he spoke, he beckoned to Li Goudan, "Come, come and sit." ”
Li Goudan honestly walked across from him and sat down, but his ass only dared to hit half of the chair. His father was just standing.
Chen Wenlong didn't say much, only smiled at the two of them.
There were no words for a long time, which made the expressions of both the father and son more restrained.
Li Goudan is young and young-hearted, and finally can't help but look around secretly.
Chen Wenlonggui is the deputy state order, and the house given to him by Zhao Dongting is not shabby. The pavilions and water pavilions are all dazzling and quite complicated.
Chen Wenlong looked at Li Goudan like this, and suddenly smiled and asked, "How is the old man's mansion?" ”
Li Goudan looked at Chen Wenlong with some restraint, and only said, "It's big, it's big." ”
Their family is under the help of Master Ma, and although they have now set up a house in Maoming County, it is ordinary, and it is of course too far away from Chen Wenlong's mansion.
Chen Wenlong smiled again when he heard this, "This is given to the old man by the emperor." ”
When Li Goudan and his father heard the word emperor, their eyes immediately showed extreme surprise.
Chen Wenlong pointed to the pastries on the table and said, "Come, come, eat some pastries." ”
Seeing that Chen Wenlong was kind, Li Goudan couldn't help but be curious in his heart, and asked, "Dare to ask your lordship, what is your official position in the court?" ”
This time it was Chen Wenlong's turn to be surprised, "Don't you even know what the old man's official position is?" ”
Li Goudan lowered his head a little embarrassed.
This appearance made Chen Wenlong couldn't help laughing again. For Li Goudan, I'm afraid I have to be a little more like.
Then he said: "The old man Chen Wenlong is the deputy state order of the DPRK and China. Can the Vice-Minister Order know? ”
Li Goudan raised his head and said, "The kid knows." The Deputy State Decree is a member of the Ministry of State and an official from the first product. Further up, it's the state order. ”
As he spoke, he stood up and bowed deeply to Chen Wenlong: "Li Zhaoen has seen Lord Deputy State Minister. ”
Then he looked at Chen Wenlong with some curiosity, and there was no lack of envy in his eyes.
Chen Wenlong was so old and spicy, he could see Li Goudan's expression, and asked with a smile: "Little guy, but I just turned ten years old, I came to participate in the palace examination, but I would like to inform the official that I participated in the palace examination, so why?" ”
Li Goudan said with a dumb eye: "The kid also wants to become a big official in the court like this, the biggest official in the court." ”
"Oh?"
Chen Wenlong couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard this, "Is participating in the palace examination just to be an official?" So if you are an official, why should you do it? ”
Li Goudan said shyly: "This, I haven't thought about this yet. ”
"Ridiculous!"
Chen Wenlong's face sank slightly, "If you only participate in the palace examination for the sake of being an official, and become an official in the future, won't you only do it to satisfy your own selfish desires?" ”
originally had a good impression of Li Goudan, but at this moment, it has decreased a lot.
With Chen Wenlong's gentle temperament, he can scold Li Goudan like this, and it must be because of disappointment in his heart.
Li Goudan is not yet the age to be able to observe words and feelings, and only said a little aggrieved: "But my dream is to be the biggest official in the world." ”
"Be the biggest official in the world!"
Chen Wenlong snorted softly, "Who taught this?" I don't even know why I should be an official, and what is the use of being a big official in the court and the people? ”
He only thought that it was taught by Li Goudan's father, and even the eyes that looked at Li Goudan's father were a little unkind.
This made De Li's father tremble a little, and hurriedly lowered his head.
From the official of the first grade, he is afraid that it is difficult for him to imagine how big this official is.
Li Goudan stiffened his neck and said, "This is what Brother Dongting taught me." He said that if he became a big official, he would be able to eliminate those bad people. ”
Chen Wenlong was slightly stunned, "Bad guy, what bad guy?" ”
Li Goudan didn't know Tibetan yet, so he told Zhao Dongting about taking them to Maoming to kill those horse bandits.
Chen Wenlong couldn't help but laugh again when he heard this.
He realized that there was something wrong with his mentality just now.
At Li Goudan's age, if you want to know what the responsibility of being an official is, it is indeed a little difficult for him.
Chen Wenlong said with a smile: "If you want to be the biggest official in the world, you can't just eliminate those horse bandits, right?" ”
Li Goudan said very seriously: "I want to make the world free of horse bandits." ”
"Okay, okay."
Chen Wenlong only smiled and nodded this time.
After that, there was no more to say, and after a while, the little old man with the goatee sent Li Goudan and his son out again.
He sat alone in the courtyard, looking at the eaves in front of him and was stunned, "The biggest official, eliminate all the horse bandits in the world...... The heart of a child, the heart of a child......"
