The publishing house has not been working for a few days, and the time has reached the end of the ninth year of Wude, and everyone is ready to put the finishing touches on the New Year. At this time, as the editor-in-chief of the publishing house, Miss Cheng Lin actually brought a person, this person is about forty years old, full of official authority, obviously an official with no low status.

Not enough, Jing Wen looked at this person, how could he seem to be bitter and hateful, as if everyone in this world owed him hundreds of dollars, which made people feel very speechless. However, Jingwen still has to be received, after all, this guy seems to have a good status, so of course he has to be well received.

But after the guy sat down, he didn't say a word immediately, and looked at Jingwen with a gloomy face. Jingwen was a little nervous by this guy, and asked Cheng Lin in a low voice.

"Miss Cheng Lin, who is this guy who seems to owe him money?" Jingwen asked.

Cheng Lin immediately said: "He is Lord Wei of the secretary and supervisor, and he wants to come and see your new book classification method." I told him about your book classification method, and he was very interested, so came to see you. ”

Jing Wen knew that the status of the secretary and supervisor was equivalent to the national library of later generations, and it was a place to store and organize books. And Jing Wen just knew that in a few years, Yu Shinan would probably be the secretary and supervisor, responsible for sorting out and proofreading the books of the previous dynasties. But before Yu Shinan, I didn't know which adult Jingwen was this secretary and supervisor.

"My lord, is there anything wrong with you?" Jingwen asked cautiously.

But Master Wei said casually: "You are the Jingwen who invented the quartile division of the subset of scriptures?" I've checked you, and you're just a chef. Although you are the imperial chef, you only cook for the emperor and the nobles in the palace, and I hate you the most people who flatter others and then get benefits. I've been ruined by you guys who like to flatter people. If it weren't for you people, I'm afraid that many dynasties would not have perished, and now you are relying on flattery to ascend to the throne? Hmph, I hate you people who flatter others to be in positions of power. ”

Jingwen complained in his heart: "Your grandfather's, can't I slip my beard and slap the horse?" The identity of who let me cross is not good, it is actually a chef. If it is a second-generation official, Lao Tzu will not flatter others like him. If Lao Tzu is the second generation of officials, Lao Tzu directly relies on his father's official position to enter the officialdom as an official. Lao Tzu has no choice but to rely on sycophants to get to the top, if you want to blame the Time and Space Administration, why did you get me to a cook. ”

"Wait, his surname is Wei? How many people surnamed Wei were there in the early years of the Tang Dynasty? And he claimed that he hated the kind of person who relied on his whiskers to take the throne the most, could it be that this guy was the famous Wei Heizi in the early years of the Tang Dynasty? Jingwen thought.

Jingwen's eyes rolled for a moment, and he immediately said with a bitter and hateful look: "My lord, I flatter the emperor, and it is also a last resort to please the nobles in the palace!" In fact, they are all the reasons for this world. In this world, everyone likes to listen to flattery, and everyone likes others to flatter themselves. I can't help it! If everyone in this world can be selfless and use their talents, then why should I flatter others to reap the benefits? ”

"My lord, do you know who I admire the most? What I admire the most is Master Wei Zhengwei, he and you are the same family, but I just admire him. Lord Wei Zheng was a man who was not afraid of power, and he dared to speak out in the face of the emperor and pointed out the emperor's mistakes. This kind of talent is the elite of my Datang and the pillar of Datang. Lord Wei Zheng is iron-faced and selfless, and he will never listen to the flattery of others. If I were facing Lord Wei Zheng, I would never use flattery, I would definitely salute him respectfully, because he is my idol! ”

That Master Wei still had a stinky face at first, but after listening to Jingwen's words, the more he listened, the happier he became, and then he kept stroking his beard and smiling. And Cheng Lin, who was next to Lord Wei, couldn't help but secretly say that this Jingwen really deserved to be a master of slapping horses, and actually made this black-faced Lord Wei smile.

And this Lord Wei is the party concerned, so he may not be able to hear that Jingwen is patting on the back. Jingwen said that Wei Zheng was iron-faced and selfless, and would not accept any sycophants. But this is not a sycophant, so Wei Zheng was also stunned by this sycophant. Jingwen said that Wei Zheng would not accept sycophancy, he was an iron-faced and selfless person, this just scratched Wei Zheng's itch, which made Wei Zheng very comfortable!

"False praise, false praise, old man, how can you be as good as you say!" Wei Zheng said embarrassedly.

Jingwen exclaimed very "hindsight": "My lord, are you my idol Lord Wei Zheng?" I really didn't expect you to be Wei Zheng, I saluted you. ”

Jingwen bowed to Wei Zheng three times in a row, which was regarded as a tribute to Wei Zheng. And Wei Zheng also stroked his beard and nodded again and again, as if he was very satisfied with Jingwen. Wei Zheng's impression of Jingwen suddenly improved countless times.

"Hey, this world is like this, everyone likes to listen to good words and listen to flattery words. The old man is also having a very difficult time, and even others don't understand it! Others say that the old man is a fool, and they all say that the old man deserves to be beheaded, but who can understand the old man's fierce loyalty to the Tang Dynasty! The old man is really for the good of the country and the court! Wei Zheng sighed and said.

Jingwen immediately responded: "Lord Wei, in fact, I can understand you, this Tang Dynasty, only you are the most loyal to the country." And the current emperor is a bright monarch, so he can tolerate people like you who are outspoken. However, I would never dare to compare with Lord Wei, Lord Wei, you have a noble character, I am ashamed of myself! ”

Wei Zheng also said with rare emotion: "I didn't expect that there is a person here who can understand me." Jingwen, although your grade is not high, I want to tell you a word, some things can be done, some things can't be done, you must be careful to abide by the bottom line! If people don't have a bottom line, it's not far from losing their heads! ”

"Follow Lord Wei's teachings, you are my teacher!" Jingwen hurriedly bowed three times again.

Jingwen immediately kicked his nose and said that Wei Zheng was his teacher, and saluted like a student. But Wei Zheng looked like he was accepting, and he obviously had a very good impression of Jingwen. This made Cheng Lin stunned, obviously not expecting things to change so much. Even Wei Zheng, the person who hates sycophants the most, was stunned by Jingwen's sycophants, so who in this world can withstand Jingwen's sycophants!
