As the saying goes, if there is a father, there must be a son, Li Xin is very well-behaved and clever at a young age, and often plays with his little uncle Li Zhi of the same age, and the relationship between the uncle and nephew is extraordinary.

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "Your Majesty is summoned to inquire about papermaking. ”

"Papermaking?" Li Zhi didn't understand, and he didn't understand how Xu Qilin could get involved in this, so he diverted the topic and said: "The food in Xufu is delicious and unique, Jinyang loves to eat it the most, and Gu also likes it." Although the palace chef has been learning in Xu Mansion for some time, the dishes he makes are not as good as eating. If it's convenient, why don't you ask your chef to cook a few new dishes and send them in? ”

Xu Qilin thought for a while and said: "The lower officials also want His Royal Highness to taste more delicious food, but the palace has its own rules, and the lower officials dare not violate it again and again." ”

"It's just a few dishes, if others heard that the palace wanted to eat them, they would have offered them earlier, why do you have so many excuses?" Zhengtai next to him was a little dissatisfied and reprimanded.

Xu Qilin was a little displeased, looked at this Zhengtai, and looked at Li Zhi with an inquiring gaze.

Li Zhi said: "This is Li Xin, the son of King Wei, who is Gu's nephew. After a pause, he said to Li Xin again: "Xu Xiaolang is right, it is true that meals outside the palace cannot be sent in casually, and they cannot be eaten casually. ”

Li Xin was still respectful to his little uncle, and hurriedly said: "My nephew knows the rules of the palace, but when he saw that he was only a sixth-grade official, he didn't know how to be tactful when he replied, and he categorically refused his uncle's kindness, which was a little rude." ”

Xu Qilin said lightly: "Although the lower official is only a six-grade official, he was rewarded by His Majesty for his merits, not for the shade of the door, nor for inheritance. ”

This is true, very arrogant, and it will also make people feel ironic. The master is an official rank based on his ability, what about you, you just have a good father and a good baby, but you are not bullshit.

What's more, one is not called uncle, the other is not called uncle, but let the master pretend to be a grandson, get rid of your eggs!

Li Zhi heard it, and Li Xin also felt that the meaning was wrong, and couldn't help frowning and looking at Xu Qilin a few times.

Without waiting for them to speak, Xu Qilin bowed and saluted, saying: "The emperor's order is here, and the lower officials dare not delay the important affairs for the country and the people, so they will retire." With that, he turned and walked away, leaving the two little boys looking at each other.

"Hey, the official is not big, and his temper is not small." After Li Xin finished speaking, he asked Li Zhi: "Uncle, what is the origin of this guy?" ”

Li Zhi looked at Xu Qilin's back, thoughtfully, and replied absentmindedly: "He is Xu Chongrong's younger brother." ”

"Xu Hui's younger brother is amazing, isn't it?" Li Xin said angrily: "Bo is so arrogant because of his small merits, and he doesn't rely on his sister ......"

Li Xin wanted to speak and stopped, and also realized that it was a little unreasonable to talk about his grandfather's concubine.

Li Zhi shook his head and said, "Xu Chongrong is talented, but Xu Xiaolang is not good at it. It's just that I have heard my father say that this Xu Xiaolang is of great use, and he only needs to be carved. ”

Li Xin opened her mouth and didn't dare to talk nonsense. Since it is appreciated by the emperor's grandfather, most of them are talented. Even if you don't have talent, you can't talk nonsense, doesn't that mean that the emperor's grandfather is ignorant?

At this time, His Majesty Li Er and Secretary Ma were discussing the four-pronged approach proposed by Xu Qilin in the Qianqiu Palace.

Strictly inspect household registration and measure fields; Seek the guilt and cancel the door shade. Under the premise of stable economic stability and social stability, these two proposals are very well implemented.

Heavy Jinshi, light Ming Jing; Open the system and select talents. Both of these articles involve the imperial examination, and the timing of their implementation will be determined at some discretion.

"Preparations have begun for the measures of blurring names, transcribing names, and locking up hospitals, and they will be implemented next year." Ma Dami thought about it and said: "Heavy Jinshi, light Ming Jing, Wei Chen thought that the earliest should be in the year after tomorrow; To open a department, it depends on what kind of talents the imperial court needs. ”

His Majesty Li Er bowed his head slightly, and said: "Papermaking may be successful this year, and it will take at least two or three years to complete the book." And this library can't be built in a short time. ”

Ma Da Secretary naturally knew the financial situation of the imperial court, and it was indeed difficult to complete such a lot of work.

After a deep sigh, Ma Da Mi said tentatively: "Maybe you can let the new Captain Zhiguo think of a way, his thinking is unique, and Wei Chen can't do it." ”

His Majesty Li Er glanced at Secretary Ma and said with a smile: "That kid is a slippery head, he can't afford to be unprofitable, I'm afraid I can't afford to be rewarded!" ”

Secretary Ma knew that this was a joke, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is rich all over the world, and you can't afford to reward a child?" ”

Changing the reward to a reward, the difference of one word, His Majesty Li Er knew it, smiled and said, "What King Bin said is reasonable. This kid has a different temperament from his sister and brother, and in addition to his official rank, he is a yellow and white vulgar thing. He also felt that the business he was doing was very secretive, but he didn't know that I had sent someone to find out earlier. Hehe, see how long he can fit? ”

Secretary Ma was a little surprised, His Majesty Li Er secretly sent someone to check on Xu Qilin.

The ancient emperors had only two purposes, one was to seize the handle and clean you up, and the other was to examine your virtue and ability, which would be reused.

"Selling ice cubes and selling fragrant dew, you can make a lot of money, how can you hide it from someone who cares if you cover it up with an uncle?" His Majesty Li Er said with some teasing: "The use of ice cubes at home is richer than in the palace, the fragrance is priceless, and it is difficult for the nobles in the harem to buy it, but Xu Chongrong has never lacked it." How can I not notice these flaws? ”

"Your Majesty is wise and wise." Ma Da Mi arched his hand and said: "Captain Zhiguo has the skill of making ice, and Weichen does know it." He also asked Weichen that if he needed to, he could send a car to our house every day. ”

His Majesty Li Er smiled and said, "Sure enough, it's a slippery head, and you have to bribe King Bin." ”

Ma Zhou smiled and said, "Captain Zhiguo is also a shareholder of the Drunken Night Building, presumably His Majesty already knows." Weichen thinks that if you talk about the way of management, Captain Zhiguo is really quite talented, he should have read "Pipe"? ”

His Majesty Li Er was also unsure, but he just laughed at Ma Zhou's vague praise, "King Bin has a very high opinion of Qi Lin, and Qi Lin also has praise for King Bin." ”

As he spoke, His Majesty Li Er got up and ordered the waiter to study the ink and lay the paper, he picked up the pen, and with a little momentum, he wrote two columns of books on the paper.

"This is what Qi Lin said, I thought it was true, so I wrote it on paper to give Aiqing." His Majesty Li Er read the written text, nodded with satisfaction, and turned around and motioned for Ma Zhou to come forward and watch.

Ma Zhou stepped forward to look at it, bowed to His Majesty Li Er, and said: "The reputation of this couplet is too great, and Weichen is ashamed to accept it." ”

"Loyal Tang Ma Zhou, it is the virtue of Aiqing, how can you not dare to receive it?" His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but say, waved his hand for the chamberlain to put it away, and said, "Do you want me to send a large number of people to Ma Qing's mansion with great fanfare?" ”
