Li Simo knew that what Shi Zhong said was untrue, he had lived in Chang'an for a long time, and it could be seen from his clothes and demeanor that he wanted him to go to the desert grassland to live that bitter cold life again, but he used his wife as an excuse.

"With your Majesty's permission, you will be relieved of this ministry." Li Simo perfunctorily persuaded him, then diverted the topic and asked: "When I entered the palace today, Wu Zhong and Qianniu prepared Xu Qilin to compete in sumo wrestling, which made Your Majesty unhappy. Don't know if it's tight? ”

Shi Zhong's mood was depressed, and he said disapprerovingly: "What is it for children to fight? Your Majesty is magnanimous and will not care. ”

Li Simo pondered for a moment and said: "Then what is Xu Qilin's background, he is a thousand cows at a young age, and his sumo wrestling skills are even more powerful." ”

Shi Zhong thought for a while and said, "I only know that he is the younger brother of Xu Chongrong, a noble man in the palace, and he was not famous a few months ago. I don't know how to get the favor of His Majesty, maybe Xu Chongrong is favored by His Majesty, loves the house and Wuba, and in a short period of time, he has been a six-rank official. ”

Li Simo pondered for a moment and said: "The imperial court has its own laws, and Qianniu can only be filled by the sons of nobles, and only by virtue of his sister, I'm afraid it won't be like this, right?" ”

Shi Zhong shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe there are other reasons, so I don't know." ”

Li Simo secretly slandered himself, this guy has been in Chang'an for a long time, he is comfortable and afraid of hardship, but he is also deaf and blind, so he asked him, he really found the wrong person.

Shi Zhong knew that Li Simo must not be very satisfied with his words, so he suggested: "It's not bad to let Wu Zhong make friends, anyway, he is of the same age, and he doesn't have a big grudge, right?" ”

Li Simo nodded and said, "Wu Zhong was knocked down by him several times and lost two good horses. By sending horses, it is also a reason. ”

"Oh, Xu Qilin is so powerful?" Shi Zhong was a little surprised, and then said disapprehantly: "It's nothing, it's just two horses." ”

Li Simo also thinks so, whether it is to keep his promises or to get some information from Xu Qilin, it never hurts to give it a try.

You must know that although he was given the surname by His Majesty Li Er, and he was named the king of the county, he was the one who died in the country. The Turks, including Li Simo, had an inferiority complex and were somewhat estranged from the Hanchen in the court.

Otherwise, generals such as Ashina Sheer, Qibi He Li, and Zhi Zhi Sili were all so desperate to fight for the Tang Dynasty, just for the sake of their own tribe to live better and stand tall in the Tang Dynasty.

Li Simo is the same, he is afraid of Xue Yantuo because he feels that the difference in strength is too great, but he dares to play with his life when he really fights. When he accompanied His Majesty Li Er to the east to conquer Goryeo, he charged forward and was wounded by a stray arrow. It may also be for this reason that the class teacher died after returning to the court.

Another concern of Li Simo is that he will not be able to convince the public. Although His Majesty Li Er would crown him as Khan, he was only a Turkic nobleman, and his status and qualifications were difficult to make his subordinates sincerely support.

When the safety and peace were not too obvious, crossing the river to the north to face Xue Yantuo, the opposition and contradictions within the tribe can be imagined.

Therefore, he still remembered Xu Qilin's boastful words. Wouldn't it be better if there was a way?

……………….

Xu Qilin took the people early in the morning and rushed to the new unit in Xiudefang.

Leader, you have to be decent, first see what the office location is like, and then condolences to your subordinates. This routine, we understand!

Xu Qilin thought that the new unit was an ordinary house, so he had to clean up and buy some office supplies. But when I got to the ground, I saw that this was originally an office space.

The Ministry of Internal Servants, or Inner Attendants, is subordinate to the Imperial Bureau, the Palace Bureau, the Xiguan Bureau and other institutions.

There is an inner teaching workshop under the Ting Bureau, which was later changed to a learning hall. There are two doctors of palace education and 18 doctors of internal education in the museum, who are responsible for teaching and learning palace calligraphy, arithmetic and public arts.

The doctor of this inner teaching workshop was held by a Confucian scholar in the early Tang Dynasty, and in the Kaiyuan Dynasty, eunuchs were first used. Because he was not a eunuch, the inner teaching workshop was set up in this place outside the palace.

The establishment of the big surplus library is not to occupy the inner teaching workshop. It is just that the inner teaching workshop is divided into two, separated by a wall in the middle, and another door is opened to the street. Then, the two agencies split half.

Xu Qilin is not interested in any luxury office space, and he looks around and sees a lot of houses, and the place is quite large, even handymen, and there is nothing to be picky about.

I met with the clerks and officials of the degree branch who came to report, and arranged their respective offices and some chores. Xu Qilin took a few of his men out of Hong Lin Gate and walked north along the Yong'an Canal to find a place to build an experimental workshop.

The place was demarcated, Xu Qilin rushed to the Ministry of Industry, dispatched officials and craftsmen, carried textile machinery, etc., and was busy until after noon, which was basically over.

I also have to buy trona, wool and other things, plus build a workshop, no matter how simple it is, I have to be busy for seven or eight days. Xu Qilin had an estimate in his heart, and he didn't go back to Dayingku, but went home to eat and rest.

Even the meal was mistaken, Xu Qilin felt that his work spirit was very commendable. But if you think about it, it's really not that necessary.

Nothing can be done in a day, give money to His Majesty Li Er, why are you in a hurry? It's just that he didn't toss it himself, who should Datang fight or who to fight, Gaochang, Gaoli, Xue Yantuo, etc., are also in decline.

Before returning to the house, Xu Qilin decided to finish eating, take a nap, and then go to do the most important thing and build a canteen for his unit.

Before he got off the horse, Xu Qilin knew that there were guests in the house. A few good horses were fully saddled and tied to the horse stakes outside the courtyard, and there were no vehicles, so it should be seen that they were all male passengers.

The subordinate took the reins of the horse and reported to Xu Qilin that the king and son of Huaihua County had come to visit and had been waiting in the hall for a long time.

Xu Qilin smiled and nodded, this is a "car", let's change to "Mercedes-Benz"!

However, Li Simo was a county king, and he came in person, which made Xu Qilin a little surprised.

Xu Qilin quickly entered the mansion, went straight to the hall, and bowed to Li Simo and Li Wuzhong who were waiting there.

"The lower official has seen the king of the county, I have waited for you for a long time, please forgive me for the rudeness."

Li Simo got up and returned the salute, and said with a smile: "I saw Xu Xiaolang yesterday and was still a sixth grade, and today I will see you again with a scarlet robe and gold belt, but I don't know what to call this king?" ”

Xu Qilin said: "Your Majesty was promoted, and the lower official is now Da Ying Kucheng, which belongs to the Inner Service Province. ”

This guy is really a close confidant of His Majesty, and he changed his official robe in just one day. It seems that what he said yesterday was not false, or that he should be rewarded for it.

Li Simo guessed in his heart that it was cost-effective for him to be condescending to his nobility, maybe he would gain a lot!

After the guests and hosts sat down, after a few cold words, Xu Qilin immediately ordered the kitchen to add vegetables and rice. It's all over the meal, and there is no reason to drive people out.
