Tai Buhua took the housekeeper out of the house to stand still, and Ru Zhongbai, who was outside the sedan chair, turned to the sedan chair and said, "Prime Minister, Lord Tai Buhua came out to greet him in person." ”

"Hmm." The detachment in the sedan car responded, and then opened the sedan curtain and stepped on the low stool that had been prepared by someone and walked down.

When Tai Buhua saw that he took off the sedan chair, he immediately stepped forward quickly and bowed down to salute.

"It's all your own people, so you don't have to be polite." Tokhtar smiled slightly, helped him up, and with just one sentence, the sense of estrangement between the two disappeared.

Sure enough, although Tai Buhua, who was born in a family of eunuchs, knew the ways and means of these officialdoms, but after all, he had been idle for a long time and couldn't show his enthusiasm for serving the country, so the words of detachment sounded extremely pleasant at this time, and his frozen heart became hot.

Before Tai Buhua came back to his senses, Tokh Tokh smiled kindly: "Lord Pingzhang, don't you invite me in and sit?" ”

"Ahh It didn't take a moment to pat his head, and his heart said that he was so rude today, so he hurriedly gave up his position and asked him to get off the house.

After entering the house, he looked left and right, and praised the design of the courtyard from time to time, which made Tai Buhua feel that the young prime minister was kind and kind.

The first time he visited the house, he was supposed to go to the hall to drink tea and talk, but Tai Buhua stretched out his arms and walked to the side corridor with Toto, meaning to ask Tokhtar to talk to the inner house.

Tokhtar had been in a high position for a long time, and he knew that this was the meaning of Tai Buhua's greatest affection and respect for himself, so he chuckled and followed him through the corridor.

Under the order in advance, the close family members who were too unspent waited at the end of the corridor, and after seeing Tokhtar, they gave salutes one after another, and after preparing a banquet of wine and food, they led Tokhtar to the study of the inner house.

As soon as I entered the door, I felt a smell of books coming to my nose, and I saw that the study was surrounded by regular bookshelves in addition to some antique calligraphy and paintings used for decoration, and each bookcase was full of books, all of which were too unspent books.

Tokh has always been famous for his intensive sinology, and today I saw the study room that was too unspoiled before I realized that there were people outside, and this was too unspoiled to know his talent in the abdomen without inspection.

But it is said that it is too undesirable to introduce Tokh to the study with this purpose, although Tokhtar has repeatedly rejected the psychology of the Han people after the recombination, but because he has received the education of Han famous teachers since childhood, he has a deep study of Han culture, and governs the country in this way, so he has the title of virtuous minister.

If you don't spend too much, you use your brains, and you want to win the favor of Toktoku with your book collection preferences.

Tokhtar didn't make a sound, but Ru Zhongbai behind him deliberately expressed his appreciation: "Lord Pingzhang really has poetry and books, and you are the only official who can respond to the prime minister's study of Sinology like this, and you are the only one who has counted the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, right?" ”

Tai Buhua knew that this was a friend deliberately helping him speak, his face was slightly red, and he pretended to refute it.

The two guests sat down, the housekeeper served the good tea hidden in the house, Ru Zhongbai took it easily, took the matter of pouring tea and adding water, and then waved his sleeve robe lightly, and drove the housekeeper and the servants away, and the door of the study was guarded by the brave guards brought by Toto.

I don't want to move in my heart, and my heart says that this is like a big deal, so I inhale and concentrate, intending to make myself more energetic.

Tuo picked up the delicate tea cup and smelled the fragrance of tea, and said slowly: "Pingzhang is full of reading scriptures and history, and I don't need to think much about it, but I don't know who recommended me to join the Chinese book?" After that, he blew the tea soup and took a sip of tea.

I was too surprised, but I didn't expect to ask about the things that made my situation so embarrassing, my heart tightened, and I replied cautiously: "I am not talented in my humble position, and a few years ago I inadvertently attracted the appreciation of that evil appearance, and he did not hesitate to recommend me to the Holy Lord to transfer to Zhongshu in person in order to win me over, and this is why I have such an official position that does not match the real name." ”

"Evil ......" Totoh laughed: "This title is very accurate, but the Taiping guy's eyesight is good, and a learned person like you is certainly worth wooing." ”

Tai Buhua listened to what he said, and hurriedly cleared up his relationship with Taiping: "The prime minister is clearly observing, when the evil phase misled the country, he did not offer a plan or strategy, and he also drew a line with them on weekdays, looking forward to the prime minister's return to Beijing." ”

Tai Buhua's remarks sound flattering and flattering, but in fact, he had great respect for the young prime minister in his early years, and often opposed various decrees when the Taiping faction was in power.

"Oh, I remember...... "You put down the teacup and snorted: "You did a lot to eradicate those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, which made the court recover so quickly." ”

Tokhtar has the ability to never forget and never forget, not to mention such political events that have involved one's own interests, don't say that it takes too little to help, and after some inquiries, Tokh Tokh has all the information about Taibu in his mind before he comes, so pretending to be confused at this time is just a means to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger.

Tai Buhua also understood that Tokhovan was giving each other a step, so as to get closer to each other, so he nodded again and again.

There is Ru Zhongbai circling around, Tokhoff and Tai Buhua talk very happily after greetings, Tokhoff throws out a decree that he is ready to implement in his heart, and Tai Buhua can put forward his own detailed views, and he will see the advantages and disadvantages bluntly.

After a few back and forth, Totok confirmed that what Ru Zhongbai said was true, regardless of this person's ability to lead troops, he was definitely a good hand in terms of official and political affairs.

The two of them talked about it for an hour, Ru Zhongbai touched the hour, and asked the two adults to discuss while eating, and they readily agreed, and Tai Buhua personally led them to the hall for dinner.

This time, Tai Buhua had a hunch that there was a big matter to be delivered to him, so he didn't wait for Ru Zhongbai to drive away the next person, and Tai Buhua whispered a few words to the housekeeper first, making sure that no half of the people around the dining place could make noise, even if something big happened, he was not allowed to come and disturb it.

It doesn't take too long to live in an idle position, and it is quite honest as an official, but after all, the family has a deep heritage, and it can be seen from this table of wine and food that it has not spent a lot of effort on the quality of life, and these dozens of delicious delicacies are not much better than the food in the palace.

Ru Zhongbai poured wine for the two of them from the side, and at one time he would help Tokh to introduce a government decree idea that was too inexpensive to consider, and at the other time he would prompt Tai Buhua to say some interesting anecdotes that Tokh liked to hear, so he won the prime minister's favor enough, so the two were very happy at the banquet, and the atmosphere became more and more harmonious.
