Chapter 5 The big thick legs of the golden can

After completing the errand and tribe of the several people who had already arrived, Li Xi ordered Li Yifeng to take all the Caoyun files of the past years that had been transcribed from the household department, and if he wanted to start as soon as possible, these things must be read and carefully read and memorized.

For a whole day, Li Xi buried himself in the case, carefully looked through all the records of Cao Yun in the past few decades, and did not even go home for lunch, but simply ate some in the yamen.

That's it, by the afternoon, it was almost dark, and this thick stack of case files only looked at the beginning of a little, Li Xi was fascinated, except that he felt that the sky was getting darker and darker, and it was more and more laborious to read the words, but he didn't think about anything else, at this time, Li Yifeng pushed the door open and came in, and saw that Li Xi was still buried in the papers, he couldn't help but smile, "My lord is really diligent in his work!" ”

Li Xi saw that it was him who came in, sighed and patted the thick stack of files on the bookcase, and said with a wry smile: "No way, if you are not diligent, you have to be diligent, in the past few years, there must be good laws enough to teach me, and there must be experience enough to teach me, if you want to make this stall run quickly, if you want to realize Your Majesty's requirement of three million stones in three years, these files will not be able to jump over, it just happens that there is time to be free now, just take advantage of this period of time, eat them in your stomach first!" ”

Li Yifeng smiled when he heard this, he had been following Li Xi for half a year, and he knew him quite well.

If you want to talk about Li Xi, he looks really lazy in ordinary times, and he almost has to be helped to move his legs and feet, but if someone thinks that Li Xi is a lazy guy in trouble, it is a big mistake.

In some things, his diligence is unmatched by no one. For example, when he said that he created the method of planting vegetables for disaster relief, he ran around, such as when Jiannan burned the beginning of spring, he kept going.

It can be said that he is a person who naturally knows what things to be busy with and which things not to care about.

This point makes Li Yifeng extremely admirable.

Countless people's lives are spent in a busy life, but in the end, they often get nothing, and those who have gained often accumulate hard work and die early in the prime of life. You don't see a generation of virtuous Zhuge Liang, because he is afraid that he will not be able to do his own work after explaining things to others, so he is busy with big things and small things, and finally the autumn breeze is five zhangyuan.

And some other people, such as Li Xi, seem to be lazy all day, but in fact, they are the ones who really know how to grasp the big and let go of the small, and they really know how to do things.

It's an admirable talent.

Even from the perspective of Li Yifeng, a person who knows the roots, it is precisely because Li Xi is good at choosing things to be diligent, and is good at giving himself the opportunity to take holidays and be lazy, so he can rise all the way to such a position at the age of eighteen.

In his opinion, this is the number one ability he wants to learn from Li Xi.

One piece and one relaxation, the way of civil and military.

At the moment, Li glanced at Li Xi with admiration, Li Yifeng pointed to the sky outside the window, and said: "If you want to see these princesses, you don't have to be in a hurry, seeing that the time is not early, it is time for adults to be on duty." ”

Li Xi turned his head to look out the window and suddenly realized.

But no, the time has naturally come, according to his experience when he was the chief bookkeeper in Jinyuan County, it is conceivable that if he doesn't leave, others will probably not dare to leave before him. So Li Yifeng is actually reminding himself: It's okay for you to work overtime to see things, but our yamen has just been established, and people's hearts have not yet been gathered, so even if you don't talk about any kindness and tenderness, at least you have to let everyone commute to work on time!

Thinking of this, Li Xi stretched out his hand to support the bookcase and stood up and stretched, and said, "Okay, get off work!" ”

Li Yifeng smiled knowingly, turned around and went out, and after a while, he heard the noise of people outside, and sure enough, everyone went out one after another, at this time Li Xi cleaned up the copywriting on his bookcase, and the volume he was reading left as it was and let him unfold it on the table, and then pushed the door out.

There were just a few officials who were going home who walked past Li Xi's door, and when they saw him push the door out, they quickly stopped and saluted respectfully, Li Xi smiled warmly, waved his hand and motioned for them to go, and those people bowed and walked away.

Not long after, Yang Shenyu, Wei Yue and Chang Feng came over to say goodbye together, although in fact, he still retains that kind of little white-collar thinking in his heart, and he doesn't like this kind of everything is in order, but he also knows that there are no rules, and the Jianghuai transfer envoy has just been established, these rules are really chaotic, even if he wants to make some changes, he also knows that the time is not enough, so he just arches his hand and says goodbye to everyone.

It wasn't until they came to the official office that the entourage led the horse, Li Xi and Li Yifeng got on the horse and walked all the way home, Li Xi sighed and said: "There are these rules, in fact, they don't have much effect, and with these thoughts, it is better to use them in doing things." But then he sighed again, "But to talk about it, this rule really can't be without, no matter what, you can rely on enthusiasm and momentum at the beginning, but after a while, it is actually the rules." ”

Gently clutching the reins in his hand, he looked at the red fall in the west from afar, and sighed with emotion, "It's a big problem that is difficult to solve for thousands of years!" Enthusiasm can only support for a while, but the system is easy to ossify...... No solution! ”

At first glance, Li Yifeng had not experienced the kind of learning experience in modern society in later generations that would put all kinds of systems together for comparison of rational surnames, so for a while, he didn't know what Li Xi's feelings were, so he had to echo and said: "Being an official, if there is no system and no rules, where can you show the majesty of an official?" If Shangguan doesn't have majesty, I'm afraid that half of the fun of being an official will be lost immediately! ”

Li Xi laughed when he heard this, thought about it, nodded and said, "That's right!" He turned his head in a low voice and smiled: "Actually, after you went out of my room just now, the originally quiet yamen suddenly became lively, and then Shen Yugong and a few of them came over to say goodbye...... Haha, I still have a sense of accomplishment! ”

After he said this, the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

It's just that the next sentence of emotion in Li Xi's heart is not known - the deputy envoy of Jianghuai Transport, the sixth official, is still too young.

My enemy, but the crown prince!

Returning to the door of the house and stepping off the horse, Xiao Li of Henan took the reins, and said at the same time: "Son, there is a guest at home, an old gentleman, said that his surname is Gao, he has been waiting for you at home for an afternoon, and he has not left until now." ”

As soon as they heard that the surname was Gao, Li Xi and Li Yifeng immediately knew who was here.

At that moment, Li Yifeng shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said to Li Xi: "What you said at that time was really right, they were afraid that this was really the case." ”

Li Xi also smiled, waved his hand and said, "Actually, it's no wonder that people are there." This Gao Sheng was also an official before, and the Gao family is not so poor that they can't eat, so why do we have to come as soon as we invite someone! ”

As he spoke, he stepped through the door and said, "It's good to be able to come now!" With him, it can be regarded as both civil and military! ”

After saying this, he suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand and touched his chin, frowning and thinking, Li Yifeng also stopped, turned his head to look at him, and saw that he looked a little puzzled. At this time, I only heard Li Xi say: "Since it is Old Man Gao who is here, but Gao Sheng is not coming...... It seems that this time I am afraid that it is the idea of Old Man Gao again, and that Gao Sheng, he may not be happy......"

Li Yifeng nodded, and immediately understood what Li Xi was thinking.

After a pause, Li Xi said: "Okay, no matter what, let's get people into our hands first." I'll leave this old man for dinner later, Mr. Li, you accompany him, let's give him enough face......"

When Li Yifeng heard this, he arched his hand and said: "Dare not obey your fate!" The subordinates immediately sent someone to Zhang Luo's banquet! ”

It's been a long time since they came out of Li Xi's house, and Old Man Gao is still a little fluttery, and he hasn't recovered from the banquet yet.

This Master Li Xi Li is really ...... Corporal Tai Lixian.

When he went to visit himself lying on the sickbed, he was still a little reserved and a little dignified, but this time it was good, as soon as he entered the door, he gave a salute, and then said that he would keep the meal no matter what, and then he personally accompanied himself to drink, and toasted frequently...... He is now a dignified deputy envoy of Jianghuai Transport, an official from the sixth grade! And there is more than one official position on his head, and the official position on his head is more than one Jianghuai transfer deputy envoy, and the original performance was folded, because he was very concerned about Li Xi, the old man inquired carefully, and Li Xi wore many hats!

Deputy envoy of the official residence Jianghuai transfer, Bai Hanlin attendant, supervising the grain and Taoist affairs of Gyeonggi, adding the household department branch member Wailang, the official department examiner Wailang, the criminal department secretary Wailang, the governor of Taifu Temple, giving the Son of Heaven a sword and a bounty fish bag.

Pick out one of these official positions in front of you, whether it is the deputy envoy of Jianghuai Transfer, or the Wailang of the household department, the member of the Ministry of Officials, or the member of the Criminal Department, it is enough to be called a big member, and the staff of these six departments, don't look at the grade is not particularly high, but as long as it is released, it will be at the level of the state assassin!

And Li Xi, who is actually a member of the three departments, also knows Taifu Temple, that is to say, he can intervene in the four absolute real power yamen of the dynasty! This is definitely a real important person!

Although Old Man Gao has never been an official, and he doesn't understand what the newly established Jianghuai Transfer Envoy is responsible for at the moment, just from this foreigner, who is also a member of the three departments, it is enough for the old man to taste something.

is young, only eighteen years old, and he is a member of the third department, and he also knows Taifu Temple...... This is simply being used to be the future prime minister in training! It shows that His Majesty the Emperor trusts and attaches great importance to him!

And the official worships the deputy envoy of Jianghuai, supervises the grain and Taoist affairs of Gyeonggi, and gives the Son of Heaven a sword, which shows that he is ordered to do a special job, and at the same time he worships Hanlin to read, and has the right to meet at any time, which is simply a sign of reuse!

And the bounty fish bag undoubtedly shows his extreme favor for Li Xi, a six-grade official! You know, this goldfish bag is not given by the noble children!

Think about it, he is young, focuses on training, and even makes him eighteen years old for the first time in three departments, in addition, he is a full-time person, and he has monopolized power, and even in order to shelter him from the wind and rain, it is said that His Majesty the Emperor also deliberately pulled out Lord Pei Yaoqing Pei of Jingzhao Mansion, as a shelf to block Li Xi's head, in addition, he gave a goldfish bag, and he was extremely honored...... In the eyes of Old Man Gao, this is simply a golden thick leg!

Moreover, if nothing else, just rush to entertain people at this banquet, which is simply full of face!

You know, not long ago, Li Xi personally visited his home, and he also gave people a cold face, according to common sense, he came over this time, and it would be good if people didn't throw themselves out directly, who let people take the initiative to pull you out at the beginning, you didn't get in the car, and you only came when you saw that people were hot? This is also human nature.

So before coming over, the old man had already thought about it carefully, this time he came over, he was not going to ask for any face, and he had to stammer this Li Xi, for the future of his son, for the future of the descendants of the old Gao family, the old man was even ready for Li Xi to spit out his face and say with a smile that this saliva is so fragrant!

But who would have thought that instead of holding grudges, Li Xi had such a humble attitude!

The old man sat in the carriage and shook his head, eager to return home a moment earlier, and teach the kid a lesson, what did this kid say, don't let himself go? And said that he could only take the humiliation in vain if he went?

So that you kid can know that not only was my father and I not humiliated this time, but Li Xi also respected me, left me for dinner, and personally accompanied me with wine! Of course, the most important thing is that without waiting for himself to speak, people sincerely invited him again, and promised that within a year, he would ensure that within a year, he would have a seven-grade future!

Seven pins, it's like a dream!

Although the old Gao family claims to be a farming and reading heirloom, in fact, the previous generations were poor, that is, from the generation of the grandfather of the old man Gao, he began to accumulate some family property, and let the father of the old man Gao study, so, if you think about it carefully, the so-called cultivation and reading heirloom is actually only passed on to the father and son, and it is stopped again when it comes to Gao Sheng.

The old man always thinks about his background, how can he have a decent background, but he is just an ordinary person, in terms of learning, let alone his son, in fact, he has only read a few years of books, and he really can't talk about any knowledge...... I really don't know, when will the Gao family be qualified to be a seven-grade official!

But now, here's your chance!

When the carriage stopped at the door of his house, the coachman hurried over to get out of the car with the old man, when he heard movement in the door, and saw several people suddenly rushing out.

The first one to pick the lead is the son of the house, Gao Sheng.

This beggar who has been promoted has not changed his clothes, and when he saw his father coming back, he immediately looked relieved, and hurriedly walked over to support the old man, and when he got closer, he smelled the smell of wine, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, but he still hurriedly said: "Dad, why did you come back, isn't it that Li Xi is really embarrassed for you?" ”

Seeing that there was movement outside, this kid was the first to come out of the door, the so-called knowing son Mo Ruo's father, the old man knew that this kid must not be at ease with himself, and he had been waiting in the gatehouse.

If you want to say that his son is pure filial piety, how can he be unhappy when he is a father, Old Man Gao is also moved in his heart, but with his habits, he naturally will not put this touched and happy look on his face, so at the moment he glanced at his son, and immediately stretched out his hand to push him away, "Go, go, go, I don't know how to change my clothes when I come back, you are really ready to lose the face of my old Gao family!" ”

Gao Sheng touched the back of his head in embarrassment when he heard this, and said, "Isn't my son worried about his father, I forgot." ”

"Humph!" The old man snorted coldly when he heard this, but it was not good to scold anymore, and even said: "Even if you are still a little filial, go and change your clothes, I will be angry when I see it!" After changing clothes, come to my room, I have something to say! ”

After finishing speaking, the old man held the crutches in one hand and the shoulder of the subordinate with the other, and slowly went to the house.

After about two teas, in the old man's bedroom, there were two teas and a pair of candles.

The old man told him about his trip to the Li Mansion today, and Gao Sheng was a little surprised, and said, "Will he treat you like this?" ”

The old man glared when he heard this, "Of course, don't look at the fact that Master Li is already in a high position right now, but it is still Corporal Lixian's tightness." To put it bluntly, people treat me so politely, why? Is there anything else for an old man to be coveted by my family? No, people treat me politely, isn't it all because people can afford you? ”

The old man touched his beard and said, "The result is good, before I can say anything, people have been invited again, so, your father I have promised for you, you pick up tonight, tomorrow morning, you will go to someone's house!" ”

Gao Sheng hesitated for a long time when he heard this, and finally said: "Dad, I don't think this matter is very credible!" Seeing that the old man was about to stare again when he heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand to explain, "Of course I believe your words, but my son I don't believe that one named Li Xi!" ”

He stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head, and said, "When I rescued him, I felt that kid was so young, but his bearing was so calm, he must be a big ghost, and I don't know how many twists and turns there are in my stomach!" I'm afraid that most of his words will coax you! Hmph, what kind of posture does Corporal Lixian pose, it can be seen that he is a villain with different hearts! ”

"You talk nonsense!"

The old man was on crutches, and he was about to scold.

But at this time, Gao Sheng hurriedly spoke, and said: "But don't worry, Dad, I'll go tomorrow, since you have agreed, of course our old Gao family can't be untrustworthy!" So, I had to go. It's just that I'm here to see what Li Xi wants to do with such an attitude of Corporal Lixian who has to invite me! ”

As he spoke, a glint flashed in his eyes.

He was very suspicious of Li Xi's intention to recruit him!

Well, I'm as good as I am.
