Chapter 278: Humble Duty

Lin Ruoxi, who was told by Zijuan, wanted to see Li Wenxuan, and went to Lanxin Pavilion with her. When he met Lin Jiagui and the others in the main house of the courtyard, he had already guessed the visit of Qi Jianqiu, a stranger, from the moment he stepped through the door, after all, he had noticed the guqin in her hands early on.

Lin Ruoxi, who didn't hide in front of her man, accepted the gift generously. The purpose she showed in front of him was a tacit message. Even if he wants to play the guqin for others, he will only play it for Li Wenxuan alone. Other than that, she won't be played by anyone else, after all, she doesn't make money by performing arts.

Before Li Wenxuan sat down, Lin Jiagui, who showed that he was both respectful and affectionate, watched the other party's every move with his eyes, and shouted with a smile on his face: "Brother-in-law." Symbolically agreed, Li Wenxuan, who casually found a chair to sit down, felt that his buttocks had not yet sat firmly, and saw Qi Jianqiu kneeling on one knee facing him, clasping his hands into fists.

Qi Jianqiu, who seemed to be more or less excited in his expression, could hardly suppress his excitement in his heart, after all, he could be regarded as a favorite of today's son. Knowing this, he naturally wanted to grasp this rare opportunity, so he introduced himself at the beginning: "Qi Jianqiu, who is a lowly position, is currently the commander of the sixth rank in the area of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses in the East City. ”

Li Wenxuan, who was not in a hurry to speak, took the tea delivered by Lu'er. I have been thinking about it for a long time, and he naturally has a trade-off in his heart, and now in this position, it is imperative to properly develop his own potential, after all, a good man needs three gangs, and a fence also needs three piles.

Li Wenxuan thought that his family lived in Qi Jianqiu's jurisdiction, and the other party was equivalent to the director of the public security bureaus in several main urban areas of Beijing in later generations. Knowing that the county magistrate was not as good as the current manager, in order to make it easier to use in the future, he smiled and said, "Get up quickly, sit down and talk." It seems that you should be a good brother of the Lin family. ”

"As Master Li said, the humble position and Brother Lin Xian are indeed irreversible friends." Qi Jianqiu, who had just gotten up, slowly retreated to a row of chairs behind him, and sat down facing his position.

Lin Jiagui, who also sat down next to him, inevitably wanted to help him and said: "Although I have not been in Beijing for a long time, I have been familiar with Brother Qi at first sight and get along very well. Brother Qi is not only quite capable, but also righteous. The only drawback is that a noble person is sent to support him. ”

Li Wenxuan, who firmly believes that things gather like and people are grouped, really dare not think that the two people in front of him are good people, and he has long concluded in his heart that they are eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, and smoking. With a smile on his face, he will not tell what he thinks and says: "Since this is the case, then it will definitely not be buried again." ”

Suddenly, Qi Jianqiu, who stood up again, said that the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division where he was located was subordinate to the Ministry of War, and it stands to reason that the Ministry of Rites had nothing to do with it, but he knew that the officialdom was intertwined, if he really understood it so simply, then he would not have taken up the position of commander.

"Thank you Master Li for your cultivation and support. If it weren't for you, the humble post would never have come out as the deputy commander of the seventh grade. Your great kindness and great virtue cannot be repaid if you are crushed to pieces. In order to show that he would be loyal to Qi Jianqiu, he once again knelt on one knee and clasped his fists with both hands.

"Don't look like this! Or quickly stand up, sit down and talk. I have already said that since you and Lin Jiagui are brothers, then you are a member of our family. Li Wenxuan, who said so above his mouth, sat on the chair without moving, and cooperated with the other party to perform a good performance.

Qi Jianqiu, who got up again and sat back, was not completely pretending. No matter in that era, whoever promoted himself and let him come out on top would be under his command. Although he is indeed not an official in the capital, he is indeed not very good, but in his one-third of an acre of land, he is the boss, after all, he is a veritable leader.

"Humble duty, I am willing to be a liver and brain for Lord Li. If Lord Li is useful and has a humble position, please be sure to give him the opportunity to contribute and repay you. Qi Jianqiu, who was extremely humble, already regarded him as his future backer and a noble man who could bring him the opportunity to become an official and a knight.

Hearing that Li Wenxuan, who was "despicable" one by one, suddenly had goosebumps to rise. However, after thinking about it, he suddenly showed a special understanding, after all, Qi Jianqiu was promoted to two levels in a row with his own help. Otherwise, the other side would never have assumed this command.

Qi Jianqiu, whose heart is like a mirror, has not moved his nest for more than ten or twenty years since he inherited his father's deputy command, so that the grievances in his heart have nowhere to tell. On top of his head, he has always been directly pressed by a boss, so many things in the past cannot be decided by him alone. He finally got through to the top and had a vacancy, and he faced three colleagues who were also deputy commanders internally to compete with him, and there were more people outside who wanted to come in and occupy this official position.

Qi Jianqiu, who is not a fool, knows very well that the other three deputy commanders who are brothers and sisters with him on weekdays are no less active than themselves in secret. He felt that the only thing he was glad about was that he had made friends with Lin Jiagui. If it weren't for the other party's matchmaking, the official position he dreamed of would probably be lost. Qi Jianqiu, who had already enjoyed being congratulated and stammered by the three of them, was self-evident in his heart. If you flip it around and you have to congratulate others, then the taste in your heart is a different taste.

Li Wenxuan, who had been talking to the two of them for about a fifth of an hour, understood the visitor's intentions, and by the way, he also expressed his meaning. In the brief exchange between these two sides, it is as if the two sides have reached some kind of agreement that can only be understood and cannot be spoken. Subsequently, Li Wenxuan casually found an excuse and went. Qi Jianqiu, who had achieved his goal, naturally didn't want to bother too much.

Towards Lin Jiagui is eyes, he said goodbye and left. Lin Ruoxi, who didn't even want to keep the two of them, was not deeply attracted by the guqin with his own thoughts, but had already seen its purpose clearly. Now that someone else's goal has been achieved, her extra words will become superfluous.
