Chapter 146: The Way to Establish a Life
The old man seemed to appreciate Xue Lang. In ancient times, it was not a simple matter to recommend a person, it was a responsibility. What is the responsibility? It is the person you recommend who makes a mistake, and the person who recommends is responsible.
Xue Lang was grateful to Li Gang for his attention, but he had no intention of entering Beijing, so Xue Lang got up, saluted Li Gang and thanked him, and said loudly: "Thank you Li Shangshu for your attention, but Xue Lang has not yet been appointed as an official in the court. If Li Shangshu is implicated because of this, it will be Xue Lang's sin! β
Li Gang has a good background, is very upright, and pays attention to integrity. After listening to Xue Lang's words, he praised: "Xue Counselor has a strong character, knows kindness and righteousness, and is a person with both talent and virtue. It would be a pity if such talents were not used by the imperial court! Needless to say, the old man has his own opinions. β
it! No wonder this old man was scolded for being a stubborn donkey, Xue Lang suddenly understood the reason. smiled bitterly, just let him go, anyway, if he doesn't enter Beijing to be an official, Li Yuan can't tie him up!
The guests at the banquet were all happy, it was late, Li Gang was tired from the journey, and after eating, Princess Pingyang sent someone to send him to the post house on the county side to rest.
After sending people off, he walked back slowly, Xue Lang couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, will there only Your Highness and his subordinates be concerned about sweet potatoes and potatoes in the future?" β
Princess Pingyang walked slowly in front, unable to see her expression, only to hear her ask indifferently: "Youyang, is this bad?" β
Xue Lang thought for a while and said, "It's not bad, it's just that other people can't share the credit, and there may be dissatisfaction and complaints, right?" β
Princess Pingyang stopped and turned her head to look at Xue Lang: "Youyang, if you talk about the credit for this matter, you are in charge, there is Ma Yuanliang, there are the soldiers who assisted in farming, but the rest of the people can't take any credit." The so-called meritorious service must be rewarded, rewards and punishments are clear, and those who are above should be aware of it, and the merit is not evenly distributed. Since ancient times, there has been no inequality. If no one else is involved, how can we take the credit? β
Xue Lang understood, and hurriedly thanked Her Royal Highness the Princess: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your advice, Xue Lang has been taught." β
After speaking, he paused, and then asked: "Your Highness wants to send his subordinates to Beijing to offer food?" β
Princess Pingyang bowed: "Youyang doesn't want to go?" β
It was still Princess Pingyang who knew Xue Lang and knew that he didn't like to go out at all. Xue Lang didn't want to pretend, and admitted directly: "I really don't want to go, Chang'an is too far away, so I go by carriage all the way...... The subordinates are not very accustomed to riding in horse-drawn carriages. β
Princess Pingyang smiled and teased him: "Youyang's reasons are always different from others, and they are quite chic.
Xue Lang arched his hand embarrassedly, with the intention of begging His Highness to let him go. Princess Pingyang Wan'er persuaded her: "Youyang don't be afraid of hard work, Chang'an has to go to Chang'an, not to mention anything else, but to receive the reward of Xiangrui, and thank the saint in person." β
Princess Pingyang said so, and Xue Lang naturally could only agree: "Oh." β
Princess Pingyang seemed to be very satisfied, and she was in a good mood, and continued: "Youyang is this good, it is quite different from men in the world, as long as it makes sense, no matter who says it, he is willing to accept and obey, and never stick to useless things such as his own face. This kind of good habit should be maintained by Youyang. β
Xue Lang laughed: "The subordinates can only say as much as possible, maybe one day the temper will be up, and they won't listen to anything." β
Princess Pingyang glanced at him: "But after the young yang qi is gone, as long as it is reasonable, it will still obey, right?" β
Well, it was seen through by Her Royal Highness the Princess!
Xue Lang could only give up. Princess Pingyang pursed her lips and smiled, and then smiled, and said: "If I am here, I will definitely keep Youyang stable, but if I am not here, Youyang should also have his own way to settle down." Although it is not difficult to learn with Youyang's talent, but Youyang is upright, and he is afraid of offending the villain who is not aware of it, so he ...... In the case of sweet potatoes and potatoes, Youyang only needs to act according to my plan. After this, the saint will definitely treat Youyang like a guest, even if the crown prince ascends the throne one day, it will not be good to treat you harshly. β
Although he dislikes Xue Lang's emotional intelligence, his kindness is all for Xue Lang's plan. Xue Lang couldn't help but think of Princess Pingyang's upcoming fate in the near future, and his heart was sour, and he said, "Why did Your Highness say this?" Now is the time for us to reap the credit, why say such discouraged words? β
Princess Pingyang smiled indifferently and said: "I am the one who leads the army to fight, the so-called sword soldiers have no eyes, there is a common saying among the people, the clay pot is not broken from the well, and the general will inevitably die before the battle." It's just that I feel it. β
"Your Highness......"
Princess Pingyang waved her hand, interrupting Xue Lang's words, and had no intention of continuing the topic and changing the topic: "Speaking of which, Youyang seems to be troubled by not being able to pass the court?" β
Xue Lang saw that Her Royal Highness the Princess had no intention of continuing the topic, so he had to endure what he wanted to say, and silently decided in his heart that the life and death of Her Royal Highness the Princess, he would definitely value it more than his own life.
Endure what he wanted to say, Xue Lang said: "The place where my subordinates grew up, the etiquette and customs are quite different from those of the Tang Dynasty, if His Royal Highness sends me to Beijing to offer food, please also ask His Highness to teach his subordinates the way of etiquette." β
Princess Pingyang said: "Youyang is very good at the moment, but the personnel in Beijing must be well known." I'll let Rugui tell you about it, with the wisdom of Youyang, this matter is extremely simple. β
"Thank you, Your Highness."
The two chatted all the way in, and when they got to the arch door and separated, Princess Pingyang went back to the backyard, and Xue Lang went back to his Tingfeng courtyard. The day felt like it had been a long one.
Back in Tingfeng Courtyard, Xue Lang asked Hexiang to take two pieces of money out, called Xiuniang, and said, "Xiuniang worked hard today, did a good job, these two pieces of money are rewarded for you, and you should do your best in the future." β
Xiuniang said respectfully: "The slave and maid thank the master for the reward." Everything that the slave and maid know is taught by the master, and what they do is also what they should do, and they dare not receive a reward. β
Xue Lang said: "No, today let you cook to entertain the envoy from Beijing, it shouldn't be your business, and you should be rewarded." I will reward you twice, and I think that tomorrow Her Royal Highness the princess will also have a reward, and you will follow, you deserve it. β
Seeing this, Xiuniang took it with a happy face. On the second day, Her Royal Highness the princess really sent someone to reward, not only to reward Xiuniang, but also to listen to the wind courtyard There are rewards, in addition to Xue Lang, the master was praised, Xiuniang was also put forward to praise two sentences, so happy that Xiuniang's hands and feet almost didn't know where to put it, thank you and thank you.
It's not that Xiuniang attaches more importance to Princess Pingyang than Xue Lang, the master, but that Princess Pingyang's identity and prestige are there, and she can be rewarded by Princess Pingyang.
