The sun is in the sky, on the official road from the capital to Tianjin Wei, a carriage with a cloth canopy is driven by the coachman, unhurriedly driving in the direction of the capital, the curtain of the carriage cloth canopy is lifted from time to time, and the eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy sitting in the carriage will always look around curiously, and finally when the city wall like a sleeping dragon comes into view from afar, the young man's face is a little surprised.
"Dad, we're in the capital, we're in the capital!"
The young man's joy was exchanged for a reprimand from his father.
"What kind of system is it in a panic, and the husband is not shocked if he wants honor and disgrace! Hey......"
Song Yuxin scolded his son while apologizing to Li Guangguang, who was wearing a green cloth next to him.
"Let Brother Li see and laugh!"
Twenty-six years ago, Li Guangguang was still a handsome young student, and he came to Beijing from his hometown in Huaiyin to participate in the examination. Li Guangguang is knowledgeable, good at poetry and writing, and is a young man with a promising future. He thought he could go to high school in one fell swoop, but unexpectedly, on the day of the release of the list, there was no name of him on the gold list, and there was no name of Song Yuxin.
Song Yuxin knew that his friend of the same year, quite a good way to govern the world, even as early as the "alternate", he had already planned, if one day he came out, he would definitely invite Li Guangguang to join the scene, although he has not yet participated in the scene, but it does not prevent him from recruiting talents for the master, otherwise how can he return to his hometown for four months.
"The nature of a teenager is always like this!"
Seeing Song Zilin's sullen appearance after being reprimanded by his father, Li Guangguang said with a smile.
"Jie Qi, do you remember when you and I came to Beijing to take the exam, when we first saw the capital?"
"How dare you forget!"
Hearing him say this, Song Yuxin immediately thought of his rash words.
"It was too frivolous that day, if it weren't for that, how could it be despised by the world!"
The former youthful frivolity is long gone, and with a long sigh, Song Yuxin continued.
"My master of the scene, although he is young, is not frivolous, when it comes to old age, he is far better than you and me back then!"
"Jieqi!"
Looking at Song Yuxin, Li Guangguang said with a smile.
"Since I have come, I should serve Lord Tang, if Lord Tang is not able to serve my brother in the future, my brother should abandon him, and there is no need for Jie Qi to say more!"
Although there are some patches on the green cloth clothes, Li Guangguang's face is full of the pride of a scholar, which is completely different from Song Yuxin, who has seen through the world for a long time.
"Brother Li, in your opinion, now that the master of my family is trapped in Beijing, if he seeks to release him, what should he do?"
Along the way, Song Yuxin has been testing his friends, the reason why he followed Tang Haoran, wanting to do something big with him is his original intention, if he has been trapped in the capital, wouldn't it be contrary to his original intention, now, he is even more anxious than Tang Haoran himself, especially after learning that he is currently trapped in the Tongwen Pavilion.
"Hmmm......"
Li Guangguang glanced at Song Yuxin as if he was puzzled, and when he saw that he was facing Jiao Se, he handed the "Tai Xice" in his hand to Song Yuxin's hand.
"Jie Qi, Ziran is not from the imperial examination, and he lives in Taixi all the year round, if he talks about Chinese studies, he is afraid that he is not as good as a child, so if he wants to release the place, the resistance is far from being solved by money!"
As soon as "Tai Xi Ce" was published, Li Guangguang had already bought it, and it was through Tang Haoran's book that he learned about the Taixi countries that he had never known before, and because of the Western things contained in it, he was shocked by Tang Haoran, which was also the reason why he hesitated when Song Yuxin invited him to the curtain.
In his opinion, Tang Ziran's talent is above him, if he has to say anything better than him, it is just a little "side-by-side", of course, there is inevitably some arrogance in his heart, then Tang Ziran is only twenty-three, and he is already famous all over the world, and in contrast, he is over fifty years old, but he has achieved nothing, how not to make people sigh.
Although he had the heart to refuse, but he was quiet and moved for a long time, he was always unwilling to show nothing he had learned in his life, so after hesitating again and again, he said goodbye to his parents, wife and children, and came to the capital with Song Yuxin.
"But if you know Taixi, how can anyone in the country be able to match, this is the biggest support of your proprietor, if you want to let it go, you have to write on it!"
"Brother Li, what do you mean?"
Li Guangguang then smiled silently, and after speaking, the carriage paid the money to enter the city, and entered the city, through the opened curtains, Li Guangguang couldn't help but sigh, twenty-four years ago, how could he have thought that he would return to the capital again, but return to the capital in this way?
After living in three people at once, fortunately, when he first entered the city, Tang Haoran placed a courtyard house, which was not crowded, and after receiving the wind and washing the dust for Song Yuxin and his party that night, in the study, Tang Haoran looked at Li Guangguang sitting upright, he didn't expect Song Yuxin to return to his hometown this time and invited a "virtuous talent" for himself.
"In the afternoon, in this study, Jie Qi tried his best to promote you in front of me."
Tang Haoran said with a smile.
"How did he recommend me?"
"He said that you have the talent of Guan Zhong and Le Yi."
The compliment of the old friend made Li Guangguang laugh, and he hurriedly said.
"How dare I compare with Guan and Le, but I'm just a Jianghu Langzhong!"
Li Guangguang is telling the truth, if he is not a good look, he is a good doctor, at least in this regard, he is quite like the ancients, and he is also a well-known good doctor in Huaiyin.
"If you are not a good person, you are a good doctor, and Chongshan is full of Fan Wenzhenggong's teaching!"
Li Guangguang picked up the teacup, took a sip slowly, bypassed Tang Haoran's politeness, and said directly.
A few days ago, Jie Qi took out a letter. The letter said that you have been promoted, awarded the Tongwen Pavilion to teach, in this position, if you want to seek a release, I am afraid that it will take a lot of twists and turns, beyond the reach of money, fortunately, the coal industry, you should stop in a hurry, otherwise I am afraid that even if you have the ability to reach the sky, you will not be able to make up for it. ”
"Oh! Jie Qi told you about me so quickly. ”
Tang Haoran looked at Li Guangguang in surprise, and it seemed that Song Yuxin did not hide it from him.
"What else did Jie Qi say?"
"Jie Qi once said,"
Putting down the teacup, Li Guangguang continued.
"The reason why you are in the coal industry is to make money, and he bribes him every day, and he will definitely be able to ask for release, and after release, he hopes that I can support you."
"That's true."
Tang Haoran nodded, but he did not deny that it is rare for an "official" to do his job, and he is so direct to bribe and buy officials.
"It's not uncommon to bribe an official position."
Li Guangguang said with a solemn face.
"However, Ziran, if you spend tens of thousands of taels of silver and release the prefect of a place, are you willing!"
The prefect of one place!
This...... Not to mention, Tang Haoran really doesn't look down on the prefect's official, not because the official is small, but because there are too many elbows.
"Although the prefect is big, there are too many elbows, which is not what I want!"
Tang Haoran replied bluntly.
"I want to be an official, but what I do is just to achieve a career, a prefect, it is difficult to succeed, it is not what I want!"
Tang Haoran's directness made Li Guangguang nod approvingly.
"If you want to achieve a career, you have to be the governor of a province, but there are more than 200 dynasties, and the governor who is only 30 years old, there is no one.
Li Guangguang's words made Tang Haoran's heart sink slightly.
But no, I broke into the officialdom like a stunned young man, and I wanted to put on the governor's official hat as soon as I came up, how could it be so easy?
"Please also teach me Chongshan!"
Tang Haoran was all sincere.
Tang Haoran's request for advice made Li Guangguang laugh, and he looked at Tang Haoran and said.
"I haven't done a single practical thing with you, and what I usually say is just lip service. As the saying goes, it's easier said than done, so why do you believe me like that?"
Shaking his head, Tang Haoran said seriously.
"With Jie Qi's trust in you and his previous recommendation, since Jie Qi believes in you, how can I, Tang Haoran, believe it?"
After hearing this, Li Guangguang's heart was quite moved. If a confidant dies, just because Tang Haoran knows Song Yuxin, it is worth going out to help him.
Li Guangguang picked up the tea bowl and made no sound, slowly took a few sips of tea, and after putting down the tea bowl, he calmly opened his mouth.
"This dynasty is the Kang, Yong, and Qian, when the three dynasties were still prosperous, and the three generations of ancestors and grandchildren added up to more than 130 years, and the so-called Kangqian prosperous era, although it is an exaggeration, it is also rare. However, since the White Lotus Sect made trouble in the early years of Jiaqing, the government and the opposition have never been stable, and the trend of national decline has never been stopped. Since the 20-year ** war of Daoguang, the war has not stopped, and the country has no peace. First of all, the Taiping army rose up in Guangxi, and fought until Jiangning, and in thirteen or fourteen years, the imperial court and the Taiping army fought and killed, destroying a splendid Jiangnan like ruins, and there was also a British and French alliance army into Beijing, the capital fell, and the emperor fled north. Other places were mixed with heaven and earth associations, twists, etc., until the twists of Tongzhi seven years subsided, and they were counted as coming in one breath. Then there was the rebellion in the northwest, although it was said that the rebellion in the northwest corner was not related to the overall situation of the Central Plains, but the endless supply of food and salary was transported from the Central Plains, and the war in the northwest was about the same as in the Central Plains, and a few years ago there was a war with the French, although it was not lost money, but it lost the vassal ......"
Li Guangguang took a national bureau class for Tang Haoran.
"If we use the old sayings of internal and external troubles and people's troubles, such as the chaos of life and discipline, and people's hearts, to set the current situation in the past 50 years, it is also appropriate, that is, from that meeting, the governor of this place will have the right to make decisions on the spot, and this place, from that meeting, it will be a great disaster......
