Chapter 297: Go to the Ministry of Agriculture
In the living room, Li Xiu asked Wei Zheng and Yang Nong to serve tea, and then looked at them quietly, just now when he was about to go home, he was suddenly stopped by them, saying that he had something to discuss with him, so Li Xiu invited them to the house to talk.

"Li Xijiu, you have often gone to the Yamen of the Ministry of Agriculture these days, according to the estimation of the officials of the Ministry of Industry, the Yamen will probably be built next month, and the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture will be able to order normally!" Yang Nong said with a smile at this time, the so-called Dianmao is actually similar to the clock-in for work in later generations, Li Xiu used to arrive at the company half an hour early, but now let him live that kind of 9-to-5 life, it is more uncomfortable than killing him.
"Then congratulations to Wei Xima and Yang Shangshu first!" Li Xiu also smiled when he heard this, but he was a little uneasy at this time, because he felt that Yang Nong's smile seemed to be a little reluctant, as if it was inconvenient to say something.
"Li sacrificial wine, the Yamen of the Ministry of Agriculture is about to be officially operated, but your support is indispensable, and the official also admires the talent of Li Saijiu, so this official has reported to His Majesty yesterday, please Your Majesty issued an order to transfer Li Saijiu to the Ministry of Agriculture!" At this moment, I saw Wei Zheng speak directly with an expressionless face.
"What?" Li Xiu couldn't help but stand up all of a sudden when he heard this, his face was full of shocked expressions, and it took a while before he reacted, and immediately said angrily at Wei Zheng, "Wei Xima, can you discuss things with others first, how do you know that I am willing to go to the Ministry of Agriculture to do things?" ”
"Li Xijiu is not in a hurry, Wei Xima is also considering the overall situation, he is responsible for the promotion of the overall situation, and the old man is responsible for specific affairs, in addition to this, you also need a person who is really proficient in agriculture, especially those who know how to grow corn and sweet potatoes, and this person is none other than you, of course, we didn't have time to discuss with Li Xianjiu in advance, and we didn't think about it!"
Yang Nong hurriedly stood up and persuaded at this time, but he was also full of wry smiles at this time, Wei Zheng was very domineering and direct, for example, he felt that Li Xiu's entry into the Ministry of Agriculture was beneficial to promotion, so he would ask His Majesty to transfer Li Xiu over regardless of it, and he would not think about anything else at all, but he knew that Li Xiu was a lazy person and had no intention of caring about these things, so he was worried that Li Xiu would be angry before, and now it seems that this is the case.
"Li Saijiu, you are an official of the imperial court, and you are a great talent, it is really a bit condescending to only hold an idle position, and now the Ministry of Agriculture is newly established, it is the time to make great achievements, I hope Li Saijiu can seize this opportunity!" Wei Zheng was serious at this time, and listening to the meaning of his words, he seemed to feel that letting Li Xiu come to the Ministry of Agriculture was to give him a chance.
"I ......" Li Xiu couldn't help but be angry when he heard this, at this time he wanted to scold people, but he really couldn't scold, and he bet that he would definitely not be able to scold Wei Zheng, this guy don't look at it all day long, but his mouth is sharp, otherwise he won't scold Li Shimin countless times and want to kill him.
"Wei Xima, thank you for your attention, but I'm a talented person, and it's really difficult to take on this important responsibility, so please ask Wei Xima to ask Gao Ming!" Li Xiu finally endured the anger in his heart at this time, and then flicked his sleeves and said, the Tang and Song dynasties were not the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the holy decree was not as authoritative as the Ming and Qing dynasties, and there were many people who did not even bird the emperor, such as the emperor who recruited a person as an official, if this person was unwilling to go, the emperor could not do anything about him, such as Sun Simiao and Wang Anshi both refused the call of the imperial court.
"Li Xijiu, I'm afraid this can't help you, you were originally an official of the imperial court, Your Majesty's holy decree to transfer you to the Ministry of Agriculture will arrive soon, if you don't obey the order, it will be a crime of killing your head!" Wei Zheng said with a straight face again at this time.
"You ......"
Li Xiu was angry and just wanted to refute, but at this time, he saw Yang Nong suddenly stand up and smile and said: "Don't be excited about Li Xijiu, don't be too anxious Wei Xima, and everyone is doing things for the court, there is no need to hurt the harmony!" ”
When Yang Nong said this, he suddenly glanced at Li Xiu, and then said to Wei Zheng again: "Wei Xima, Li Xianjiu will go to our Ministry of Agriculture to serve in the future, and this matter will be handled by the old man, I dare to guarantee that I can definitely convince Li Xianjiu!" ”
"Good! Anyway, I've already finished talking about things, so the official will leave! Wei Zheng also heard the meaning of Yang Nong's words, and immediately stood up and arched his hand at Li Xiu, but Li Xiu snorted coldly and didn't even send it, and Wei Zheng didn't care, turned around and left the living room.
"Li Xianjiu, what are you and Wei Zheng like him, he is a madman, he only seeks results in doing things, and no one will give face, plus there is the support of the prince behind him, even Pei Xiang has to give him three points!" Yang Nong said earnestly at this time, he was very dissatisfied with his loss to Wei Zheng, but there was no way.
"I didn't want to have a hard fight with him, but he did things too much, and he didn't ask me if I agreed, so he asked me to go to the Ministry of Agriculture to do things, how could he do this?" Li Xiu was also very annoyed at this time, he was worried that working with Wei Zheng would be unlucky, but now it has come true.
"But I don't think you have to care too much about this transfer, Li Xijiu, it's nothing more than the Ministry of Agriculture, but don't forget, I am the Langzhong of the Ministry of Agriculture, and I have the final say in the entire Ministry of Agriculture, although Wei Zheng is my boss, he can't super meddle in the internal affairs of the Ministry of Agriculture, and can only command the Ministry of Agriculture through me, so it's nothing for you to go to the Ministry of Agriculture, I know that you are usually very busy, such as giving lessons to the children of the prince and the Qin Wang's family, so I usually go to the Ministry of Agriculture when I have time, and I don't come if I don't have time, In other words, you just need to hang a position, what do you think? Yang Nong smiled again at this time.
"Just a temporary position?" Li Xiu couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Yang Nong's conditions, if he was just suspended, then he would be much freer, just like Yang Nong said, if you want to go, you can go, if you don't want to go, you can't go, and you can also use teaching Li Chengdao and them to study as an excuse, which is also very good.
"Of course, but sometimes it may be necessary for Li Saijiu to instruct the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture, so that they are more familiar with the characteristics of corn and sweet potatoes, and the old man will do the rest!" Yang Nong patted his chest at this time and assured, it was very difficult for him to speak, when he met a tough boss like Wei Zheng and a lazy subordinate like Li Xiu, he could only try to reconcile in the middle, and there might be more things to do in the future.
"Okay, then thank you Yang Shangshu, as for corn and sweet potatoes, it is also my job, and when I have time in the future, I will give a few special classes to the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture, and talk about what I know about agriculture!" Li Xiu finally nodded and agreed when he heard this, as long as he was not allowed to come to work from 9 to 5, everything was easy to discuss.
Seeing Li Xiu finally nodded, Yang Nong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Li Xiu and Wei Zheng would be hard topped, no matter who suffered, it would affect the promotion of corn and sweet potatoes, he was now old, but he didn't have time to spend on Li Xiu, these young people, and even for Yang Nong, the biggest wish was to promote corn and sweet potatoes in his lifetime, so as to leave the most glorious stroke in his career.
Yang Nong sat here for a while in Li Xiu, Li Xiu wanted to keep him for dinner, but Yang Nong said that there were still some things to deal with, so he insisted on leaving, Li Xiu finally had to send him away in person, but when he saw Yang Nong's back leaving facing the sunset, his white hair was also dyed with a layer of gold by the sun, which made Li Xiu feel respectful, no matter what Yang Nong's original intention was, at least people are now wholeheartedly promoting corn and sweet potatoes, which he can't compare to anyway.
It wasn't until Yang Nong's back disappeared into the distance that Li Xiu shook his head and returned home, at this time it was already dinner time, Yuechan and the others were all back, and the kitchen exuded the aroma of food, which was also the taste of home.
I wanted to stand in the yard and take a deep breath, then go to the kitchen first, and ask someone to make an extra dinner for Yang Nong, after all, people have helped him so much, he also has to say something, of course, one meal must not be enough to finish this favor, but there will be more opportunities to get along in the future, and you can pay it back slowly.
When I returned to the inner house, I saw Qi Niang playing skipping rope with Xiaoya and Hate'er, speaking of which Hate'er had eaten and dressed well during this time, and her thin little face had grown flesh, and it looked much more beautiful than before, but her skin was a little dark, but this was not something that could be changed for a while.
"Hate'er, you're still living here today, aren't you?" Li Xiu walked over with a smile and asked, I didn't go back so late, generally speaking, I just planned to live here.
"Yes, the third uncle doesn't know what to do these days, he always can't see anyone, the princess said let me sleep with her, but I still like to be with Qi Niang and Xiaoya!" Hate Er replied with a smile while throwing the rope, but as soon as she said this, Li Xiu remembered that he hadn't seen Ma Ye for a few days, and he didn't know what he was busy with during this time?
When she was talking, Qi Niang, who was jumping rope in the middle, suddenly tripped her foot, and as a result, she could only replace the little girl and threw the rope, which made her very dissatisfied and said to Li Xiu: "It's all your fault, brother, you always talk and affect me to jump rope!" ”
"Okay, okay, it's all my fault, you guys can play, but remember to eat later!" Hearing this, Li Xiu hurriedly raised his hand and surrendered, no matter how big or small a woman is, she can't be reasonable, otherwise she can only ask for hardship.
After Li Xiu finished speaking, he turned around and left, and returned to the courtyard where he lived to prepare to call Yi Niang to eat, but it was strange to say that Yi Niang used to greet them to eat, but today she was nowhere to be seen, could it be that her body was a little uncomfortable?
Thinking of this, Li Xiu couldn't help but worry, and strode into the bedroom at the moment, but as soon as he came in, he saw that Yi Niang was a little flustered and wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, but her eyes were red, as if she had just cried? (To be continued.) )
