Chapter 18: Undercurrents
There are people who can ignore their own piano skills.
Lin Miyue's willow eyebrows furrowed slightly.
This is the first time.
Although she has long disdained to be sought after, she is a little unaccustomed to seeing someone ignore her.
"Girl, let's do it again!"
"That's right! One more song! ”
Someone coaxed.
"I'm sorry, my lords, the little woman is tired, so let's retire first."
Originally, Lin Miyue had agreed with the Empress Gongsun that she would only play one tune, if it weren't for the fact that the Empress Gongsun was her master's old friend, she wouldn't even appreciate this song.
After all, she doesn't like to be watched by a group of people, like a woman in a green house.
Especially listening to her play are a group of laymen who don't understand the rhythm of music, and only know how to brag nonsensically.
She felt that it was a waste of time.
Especially there is a man here who doesn't even bother to praise his own rhythm, where is Lin Miyue still half interested, and immediately got up to say goodbye.
Looking at her graceful and soft back slowly leaving, the grandson of Lord Shangshu in the high position had burning eyes, picked up the wine glass and poured it into his mouth, only to find that there was no wine in the cup......
I also ate and drank wine, and listened to the wonderful sound of Qin Sheng, and this trip specially prepared for Xu Tian was a successful conclusion.
"Lord Shiro, don't forget to report to the Tianzun Academy tomorrow."
When everyone dispersed, Lord Shangshu also took special care of Xu Tian.
"Okay, Lord Shangshu."
Xu Tian also responded politely.
It seems that nothing has happened between the two, let alone the story of insulting each other with dogs.
Alas, Xu Tian sighed in his heart, as pure as me, after all, he was still polluted by the bad habits of officialdom.
Even if you want to stab each other to death, you have to smile on the surface.
That's politics.
As a true gentleman, Xu Tian didn't like this atmosphere very much.
It's not pleasing to look at each other, why do you have to intrigue and choreograph each other, can't everyone sit down calmly and cut each other a few times?
However, if you live in the red dust, how can you avoid vulgarity.
……
Out of Shangshu Mansion, Xu Tian and the two beautiful guards were about to go home, when they suddenly heard someone behind them calling: "Lord Squire, stay, stay!" ”
Looking back, it was a snow-white official, but his face still looked very young, as if he was only in his twenties.
"Lord Wei, what are you doing?"
Just now, everyone introduced themselves to Xu Tian one by one, although he has a good memory, but there are too many people and he doesn't remember it for a while.
Only this official surnamed Wei was impressed.
Because the head is very white.
Wei Daxin, Hangchuan Xiaoran Zhizhou.
After everyone avoided Lord Shangshu because of Xu Tian, this person actually took the initiative to meet him and talk to him.
This made Xu Tian very puzzled.
"It's rare that Lord Shilang still remembers the lower officials."
Wei Daxin was very moved, and said, "The lower official is specially here to remind Lord Shilang that he has offended the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and you must be careful, Lord Shangshu is narrow-minded and will never tolerate adults." ”
"I know."
Xu Tian nodded, someone who can shoot at himself for no reason for no reason will definitely not be a good person.
But he couldn't tolerate me.
I can't tolerate him.
It's this Wei Daxin......
Xu Tian looked at him a little strangely.
What's the matter with this person, as soon as he comes out, he comes up and speaks ill of his boss?
"Ugh. My lord, if the lower official is not mistaken, Lord Shangshu must have squeezed out his nephew because of your arrival......"
Wei Daxin looked left and right for a while, making sure that no one was following, so he whispered.
"His nephew? Who is it? ”
Xu Tian frowned, and it just so happened that he was also curious about why this military department secretary was hostile to him.
Wei Daxin said: "The middle order of the Tianzun Martial School, the right attendant of the military department, Gongsun Jian." ”
Gongsun Jian?
It's a cheap name.
In the middle of the order, Xu Tian recalled that in this world, this position is equivalent to the director of the school's political and educational office.
It's the kind of department head who specializes in training bad students.
As for the right squire, there were originally two squires in the military department, and the status of the left squire was generally higher than that of the right squire.
"I don't think I've seen this person before."
Xu Tian recalled carefully.
I really haven't seen it, when I first came, one of the following two positions was reserved for him, but the opposite side was the prefect.
Obviously, another high-ranking squire, Lord Squire, was not present.
Wei Daxin nodded and said, "Yes." Lord Squire was infected with the plague, and he was recovering from a serious illness and recuperating at home. ”
"Oh? Survived it yourself? ”
Xu Tianmo rubbed his chin.
"yes. Lord Zuo Shilang is dead, my lord, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about your predecessor, after his death, the position of vice principal was originally intended to be reserved for Lord Right Shilang. Wei Daxin said slowly, "A while ago, I saw that Lord Right Squire was out of crisis and was in good health, and the excerpts recommending him to be promoted to vice principal had already been handed over. ”
"But the emperor sent me, an airborne soldier, over and took the position that should have belonged to his nephew......"
All of a sudden, Xu Tianquan understood.
No wonder this old thing is blatantly humiliating himself.
That's what happened.
"Why are you telling me this?"
Nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief, although Xu Tian is willing to listen to what he wants to know from this white-haired Wei adult, he still has the heart to guard against people.
I saw this bearded Lord Wei looking up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle, and said lightly sadly: "Because, the position of the right attendant of the military department should have belonged to me." No matter how bad it is, I should still be the prefect now, but because Lord Shangshu ......"
"Oh......" Xu Tian suddenly realized.
Needless to say, Xu Tian also understands the next story.
It must have been the grandson's secret operation to let his nephew come up, not only snatching away the position of the right attendant of his military department, but also demoting him to a level for some reason, from the prefect to the governor.
"I can't hide it, my lord, it was because of this incident that the lower officials were so indignant that they couldn't sleep at night, and in just one month, their hair turned white."
"Lord Shangshu heard about the resentment of the lower officials, and he also used means to demote me by one level."
Wei Daxin sighed bitterly.
Xu Tian patted him on the shoulder sympathetically: "This is the disaster that comes from the mouth." ”
At first glance, this is a mouthless door, and I just got to know myself and said so much.
What kind of officialdom are you doing?
can still be a governor without being killed, and you can already burn high incense.
"It's also to see that Lord Shangshu openly insulted Lord Shilang today, and the lower official touched the scene, remembering the situation that was also targeted in the past, and he felt a little sympathy with Lord Shilang, so he couldn't help but vomit as fast, and I hope that Lord Shilang will not be surprised."
Wei Daxin's face was pale, and he bowed down, "Please also ask Lord Shilang to take care, don't have a hard time with Lord Shangshu, and don't let Xia Guan become a lesson for Lord Shilang." ”
Oh, it turned out to be sympathy, and it was also a good heart, Xu Tian expressed his understanding: "Thank you for the reminder." Don't worry, I'm not going to end up like you. See you later. ”
After that, he left on his own.
Wei Daxin looked at his dashing and departing back, sighed, and said, "Alas, I wasn't so high-spirited when I was young, but in the end, I can't only bow to reality. ”
