Lord Shilang came in a hurry, and hurried away without heeling, although the delay was very short, but this public office of Yu Housi was not an ordinary place after all, and there were thirty or forty officials sitting in the six main halls and twelve wings in the courtyard before and after. Although tomorrow is off, many people have quietly left early, but there are not a few who stay or have nowhere to go because of things, Chang Xiu came and went in a hurry, and no matter how small the movement was, it also alarmed many people. It's just that Chang Xiu's face is too gloomy, obviously with a belly of ignorance, no one dares to step forward and touch the mold, so he can only stare at his Xiao Se back and walk away......

I don't know how long it took for Yang Heng to wake up from his dizziness. It didn't happen to him, but he felt it. At that moment just now, in a trance, he seemed to return to the day more than ten years ago, at that moment the sky seemed to have fallen, the surroundings were dim, dazed, nothing could be seen, nothing could be touched, as if there was nothing between heaven and earth except for a lonely person. What ten years of cold windows, what fish leaping over the dragon gate, what green clouds go straight to the colorful clouds, all of them are turning into rotten dreams in an instant, a thin piece of paper, no matter how high and far-reaching the ambition, it will turn into a passing cloud in an instant...... He sighed silently, dragged his soft legs and feet, walked over and picked up the official document that Chang Xiu put down, looked back at Tian Xiu, his lips squirmed several times, and finally he couldn't say anything.

Tian Xiu leaned against the door, her face was pale, her face was tilted, and her eyes were distracted as she looked at the swarthy beams above her head.

Pain, humiliation, annoyance, confusion, and shame were all mixed together and swirled in her heart. Her heart was now tumbling like a flood. She had expected what had just happened. After all, she has not taken the imperial examination, she is not a jinshi, she is not even a showman, she has no fame, if she wants to be in the middle of the department, it is a difficult thing, even if Wen Shigong and they support her, others will come out again and again to stop her. So since the news of the establishment of the patent department came out, she had never talked about it in front of anyone except a few people close to her. Until now, the official document of the imperial court approving the establishment of the patent department will come down in three or five days, and she does not dare to slack off a little. She told herself over and over again in her heart that before she received the appointment from the Ministry of Officials, she was still a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy who came to the Ministry of Engineering to help...... However, she had no idea that at such a time, it was the people she respected who abandoned her! Yes, she knew that this was definitely not Chang Xiu's original intention, and she could see the painful look on Wen Shigong's face clearly. However, this pain does not hide that they have betrayed her essence once again! Just like the incident in Mid-Autumn, they betrayed her again. In mid-autumn, she was humiliated by several people in Huangdengguan, and they didn't stand up to support her! Not only did they not take justice for her, but they also interceded for those Sven scum, and persuaded her to teach her to let those guys go. There are too many people who intercede for those people, Nanyang, Chen Pu, Zhu Xiangguo, Wen Shigong, and even Li Mu and Li Dingyi...... They all helped those people to shut down. She is a lonely woman who has a false position in the Hanlin Academy, and she really has no way to seriously deal with those few bad slanders, besides, she can't resist so many people, so she has to swallow this breath alive in the end. But what did she get when she endured humiliation and burden? Is it just an official document from the ministry? All she got was a fluttering sentence of "Hanlin Academy will make another arrangement......

An aggrieved emotion made her unable to hold back tears.

She threw her face up higher, desperately trying not to let the tears welling up. She called her name in her heart: Tian Xiu, Qingshan, you can't cry, you must not cry! You can't even cry here......

But two lines of tears finally welled up.

Yang Heng looked at her helplessly. He couldn't help at all, so he could only sigh and sigh over and over again with a bitter face. He felt it was his duty to say something and do something. But he couldn't say anything. At this time, empty words can only make Tian Xiu more sad. There was a difference between men and women, and even if they were colleagues, he couldn't help her. In the end, he took a bowl and poured a bowl of hot tea soup, and silently handed it to Tian Xiu's hand.

Tian Xiu did not take the tea soup. She wiped away her tears and took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself down. She forced herself to press the turbulent and tumbling waves in her heart, walked to the table with two soft legs, picked up the official document and looked at it, turned back to Yang Heng and said, "Lord Yang, the official document of the Ministry of Officials ......" She turned her face suddenly, closed her eyes tightly, and pulled the nails of her right fingernails into her hands into her palms, and barely restrained herself. “…… Now that the official document has arrived, I, I'm ...... I'll just pack my things. Later, later......" she couldn't say any more. She originally wanted to say that if she needed help with anything in the future, she would come to the Hanlin Academy to find her; But she couldn't tell. If she continued, she would probably not be able to control her emotions......

Yang Heng glanced at her with complicated eyes and nodded silently. The official document of the Ministry of Officials has been handed down to Tian Xiu, and there is no possibility of repareving the matter. Before the news spreads, leaving now is the best way!

Someone knocked twice on the open door.

It is Lang Zhong Shen Jin of the Ministry of Industry.

Shen Jin and Yang Heng are fellow villagers, both from Jingdong Huaiyang. However, when Yang Heng was in trouble, Shen Jin was still a showman, and he hadn't even taken the government exam, so the two didn't know each other earlier. In the tenth year of the Eastern Yuan Dynasty, Shen Jin was named "Jinshi Born" in the second list of the Ministry of Rites, and Yang Heng had been demoted to Xiaoluoyi, and the two had no chance to get acquainted. It wasn't until last summer that Yang Heng was appointed by the Ministry of Industry to go to Yanshan on a business trip, and the two gradually became acquainted. Because they are fellow villagers, the relationship is naturally closer than others, Shen Jin came over today to invite Yang Heng to eat and watch a play together, but when he saw this situation when he entered the door, he couldn't help but want to ask what was going on.

Before he could say anything, Yang Heng gave him a look and shook his head slightly.

Shen Jinleng paused, and immediately swallowed back what he wanted to say. Although he didn't know what was going on, he reacted quickly, looked back at the Marquis Yu Mansion with a smile on his face, and saw a lot of people standing under the corridor, some whispering, some shaking their heads and sighing, all of them swept their eyes to this room. Obviously, it's not a small matter......

Tian Xiu had already packed up her things. Actually, she doesn't have any personal possessions. Pen, ink, paper, and inkstone are all public; Three seals, one "Da Zhao Ministry of Industry Fake Position with Cao", one "Da Zhao Ministry of Industry Luo Xu Inspector", both of which are official seals, only one of the Lantian jade engraved with the seal of "Qingshan Tianping" is her private seal. Then there is an oil-paper umbrella, which she bought at her own expense. In addition to the seal and umbrella, there were a few miscellaneous volumes that she had copied herself, and then there was nothing left to collect. However, there are still a lot of her notes and notes on the bookcase between the walls, all of which record the before and after process of glass coke trial production and the formula ingredients, and some of them are the successful experiences and failures she has summarized, as well as the improvement methods she has considered and figured out. Most of these documents were compiled by her after she went to the office, so it is difficult to tell whether they belong to the public or to her.

Watching Tian Xiu walk to the closet and take out a few boxes, neither Yang Heng nor Shen Jin spoke.

Shen Jin could see that Tian Xiu was packing up his things. Her purpose for packing her things was obvious: she was leaving the Ministry of Works. As for why Tian Xiu left the Ministry of Industry at this time, and why he chose to leave the Ministry of Industry before the establishment of the Patent Division, does this question still need to be asked? He smacked his lips and didn't say anything, but he felt very angry for Tian Xiu in his heart: Someone must have looked down on the position of Si Cao of the Patent Division who suffered from the severity!

Tian Xiu hesitated for a while with the box where the notes were placed, and then put a few boxes back again.

Now, she calmed down a bit, and at least she was able to deal with the incident calmly, or at least it seemed that she had calmed down. She returned to the table, put the books, private seals, and the official documents of the Ministry into the briefcase, nodded at Shen Jin, and said to Yang Heng: "Lord Gongdu, I'm leaving." After speaking, he and the two of them arched their hands, carried the briefcase and carried the umbrella and went out, regardless of so many colleagues and colleagues looking around and inquiring, and walked out of the office with a swagger.

Only then did Shen Jin pull Yang Heng and ask, "What's the matter, is someone making it bad?" ”

Yang Heng let out a long breath, sat down on a drum stool in front of the table, and said quietly for a long time: "Don't ask." I don't know what's going on......"

"The official letter that Lord Tian put away just now is really a transfer document issued by the Ministry of Officials? Who sent it? Did the official pass the person pass through the waist card? Shen Jin asked in a series of questions. His words are not unforgiving. Since the day he became an official, he has been working in the six departments, and he has never seen or heard of all kinds of dirty tricks and despicable deeds in the imperial city. Some people can do whatever they do in order to be promoted, and in order to move Tian Xiu out of the position of Si Cao, what is the point of falsifying official documents? It is said that there was a forgery of holy decrees during the time of the first emperor! As long as Tian Xiu is fooled and the person who is planning has the means, an evaluation of "the resident official is careless and does not distinguish between the true and the false" can pull her down from the position of the patent secretary; Even if the plan can't succeed in the end, at least Tian Xiu will be disgusted.

“…… It was sent by Chang Xiu Chang. ”

Shen Jin was speechless for a while.

He gritted his teeth, walked around the room, paused vigorously, and said, "Master Chang, why is he, why is he like this...... Such...... Ah! He really couldn't evaluate Chang Xiu, so he could only squeeze his fist and smash it in the palm of his hand several times. Alas, what a confusion!

He asked Yang Heng, "What is the reason?" ”

“…… It should be someone who is making a fuss about Aoyama's background. Aoyama could not participate in the imperial examination, so he had no fame. Moreover, even if the imperial court does not stick to one pattern and recruits talents, the rank of the seventh rank has almost reached the extreme. ”

Shen Jin suddenly had nothing to say. Conferring official positions based on merit and fame is a court system, as long as someone takes this out to talk about things, ten Tianxiu have to fall on it. has a meritorious reputation, and a pig can be an official; If you don't have fame, then you don't need to say anything......
