Chapter 672: Zhang Wu's Exclusion
Xiao Man was slightly stunned, she didn't know that there was such a young Shangshu in the court, looking at the appearance of this Shangshu, she felt that the other party was about the same age as herself, but it was naturally impossible to become a Shangshu at such a young age, just because her face was too bookish and angry.
"You're the new understudy, Su Xiao?"
Xiao Man looked at this Shangshu in a daze, and immediately replied when he heard Huang Shangshu's voice.
"That's right, I'm this year's candidate, and I'm here to help."
Huang Shangshu nodded, he looked at the copywriting on the table, and felt that Xiao Man had sorted it out well, so he asked Xiao Man.
You have sorted out these copywriters well, and it can be said that they have helped us a lot.
Xiao Man was naturally very happy when he heard Huang Shangshu's praise, and even a little embarrassed, knowing that it was the first time he was praised by others for such a thing.
"That's what I'm supposed to do."
Although Huang Shangshu praised Xiao Man, his expression never smiled, thinking that it was because the affairs of the Ministry were too heavy, he had no extra mood at all, and in the face of Xiao Man, he laughed friendly.
So with a wave of his hand, he asked Xiao Man to go out quickly, and after Xiao Man went out, the servant of the Ministry looked at Xiao Man, with doubts in his eyes.
Xiao Man looked at the strange expression of the servant of the ministry, and he didn't know what was wrong with him, why he looked at himself like this.
"What are you staring at me, is there something on my face?"
The servant hurriedly shook his head
"You don't know that our Lord Shangshu has a strange temper, generally newcomers, he treats as much as he can, I have never seen him treat anyone so well, but also, you just came today. The copywriting can be sorted out so well. If only I did. It will also be very good to you. ”
Hearing what the servant of the ministry said, Xiao Man suddenly felt that he probably still had some talent in handling political affairs, and his heart was as sweet as eating honey at this time, but even when Xiao Man was complacent, a scholar in coarse cloth clothes next to him gritted his teeth with hatred.
To say that he is also selected from this year's candidates, why does the Ministry of Officials just praise this Su Xiao alone, not praise himself, the more he thinks about it, the more unconvinced he becomes, and he doesn't know what Su Xiao is from, he often goes to participate in some poetry meetings held by candidates in Shangjing, and if you want to say that your level is an absolute leader among the candidates.
But at this moment, no one in the Ministry of Officials paid attention to governing themselves, and this Su who was in the limelight knew how he could swallow this breath, so this candidate also walked towards Su Xiaoman indignantly.
Su Xiaoman was looking at his own official documents at this time, and when he saw this candidate suddenly come over and bump into it, he knocked the official documents to the ground, looking at these official documents, Xiaoman was a little anxious, you must know that these official documents are not so urgent.
But Master Shangshu handed it over to himself to deal with, if it was dirty and damaged, wouldn't it be that Shangshu would probably blame himself, Su Xiaoman hurriedly squatted down and packed up these official documents,
Unexpectedly, as soon as Xiaoman stretched out his hand, the candidate stretched out his foot and stepped on Su Xiaoman's hand directly, Su Xiaoman felt that the pain was in his bones, and he quickly retracted his hand and screamed.
Hearing this scream, the servant of the Ministry of Officials naturally rushed to check, to say that these subordinates were all screened by him from among the candidates, if they were not effective, it was naturally his responsibility, and he was always supervising the behavior of these candidates.
"What are you doing, how did you spill the official documents all over the ground?"
Su Xiaoman immediately said aggrievedly.
"He knocked down my official document and trampled on my hand."
Seeing Su Xiaoman say this, the waiter of the Ministry immediately looked at the candidate next to Su Xiaoman, to say that this candidate's name is Zhang Wu, this Zhang Wu relies on his own ability, and he often bullies other candidates.
It's just that he thought he could be promoted in one fell swoop, if it weren't for his family, he entered the ministry with this.
Otherwise, the officials would not accept him, so the servants of the officials naturally stood on Su Xiaoman's side, and when he just wanted to administer justice for Su Xiaoman, he didn't expect the officials to go out and walk out.
To say that Lord Shangshu came out, the three of them were immediately respectful, and they didn't dare to say another word.
Shang Shu frowned when he saw the official document in one place, and looked at Su Xiaoman with some anger.
"Su Xiao, what's the matter with you, how can you scatter the official documents all over the ground, you must know that although these official documents are trivial matters, they have to be dealt with even if they are trivial matters, how can you treat them like this."
At this time, Su Xiaoman was really aggrieved in her heart, so she hurriedly told the servant of the ministry and said it again.
"Master Hui Shangshu, after this colleague bumped into my official document, I wanted to pick it up, but he stepped on my hand again."
Su Xiaoman said excitedly, I didn't expect this Shangshu to be impatient to listen to it at all, and directly interrupted Su Xiaoman.
"Don't say it again, this matter is your fault, the official document is in your hands, it is your responsibility to protect it, but you let it fall to the ground, a layman is really a layman, you candidates have no sense of responsibility at all, and you still want to be admitted to the imperial examination, it's a joke."
After saying that, the official department left this chaotic scene in a hurry, and all the grievances in Su Xiaoman's heart surged up at this time, and tears rolled in her eyes, but she thought that if she cried now, wouldn't it make people use her identity as a woman all of a sudden.
So at this moment, Su Xiaoman bit his lip to prevent his tears from flowing, and pretended to be strong and picked up all these official documents.
Seeing that his family's Shangshu was so rude, the servant of the ministry also felt that he didn't know what to say, after all, he was his own boss, and he couldn't blame him, so he gave Zhang Wu a fierce look and asked him to leave quickly.
Then he patted Su Xiaoman on the shoulder.
"It's okay, Su Xiao, in fact, you have done a good job, don't be too sad."
When he got home in the evening, Lu Li naturally found that there was something wrong with Su Xiaoman, to say that Xiaoman usually laughs and laughs at dinner, and will talk about some things with him, but today Xiaoman is quiet, as if he can't talk at all.
Xiaoman, is something happening in the Ministry today?
Xiao Man was asked by Lu Li at this time, and she was naturally worried in her heart, but she didn't dare to tell Lu Li what happened to the Ministry today, if she wanted to say that she was Lu Li's wife before, she could naturally tell Lu Li what grievances she encountered.
But now I am different, I am a person who wants to enter the court as an official, if I can't solve any grievances by myself, and blindly rely on this land, then when will I be independent.
So Su Xiaoman barely squeezed out a smile.
"Lu Li, what are you talking about, I don't have anything to do, I'm just too tired because of the affairs of the ministry. Some of them don't want to give up, so it's good to have a good night's sleep. ”
Although looking at Su Xiaoman's expression, although Lu Li was still very worried in his heart, he still believed Xiao Man's words in his heart, after all, the work of a ministry was really annoying, so he said to Xiao Man softly.
"Then you rest early, and I won't bother you anymore."
Su Xiaoman went to bed early, but he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning.
She thought that the official department was angry today, and she didn't know if she would go to the ministry tomorrow, seeing him like that, he seemed to hate herself very much, if she went to the ministry tomorrow, but of course she was driven back directly by the book, wouldn't it be too embarrassing.
So Xiao Man retreated in her heart, but she thought about today's events, it was not her own fault, but Zhang Wu's fault, if she retreated like this, wouldn't she show them a joke.
So Xiaoman mustered up the courage and decided that he must work harder tomorrow to let Shangshu see his performance.
To the next day, Xiao Man arrived at the Ministry of Officials early, started his work, only to see that after Zhang Wu came, he struggled for a long time before starting to work, the Ministry of Officials Shangshu hid behind the screen and watched the actions of the two people, and had some decisions in his heart, and returned to his room to work after a slight smile.
To say that Zhang Wu has been living in Shangjing, he always feels that Su Xiaoman is a little familiar, but he doesn't know where he has seen her, after thinking about it for a night yesterday, she finally remembered this person, isn't it Su Xiaoman, the wife of Lu Li, the prince of Zhenguo.
I didn't expect her to disguise herself as a man and come to work in the ministry, although yesterday's incident didn't make her leave the ministry, she must give her a little good look today, so she came to Su Xiaoman with a bunch of official documents
Su Xiao, I have already reviewed these official documents, do you want to come with me, send the official documents inside, and show them to Master Shangshu for review.
Su Xiaoman thought about it, even if this was Zhang Wu's initiative, since he took the initiative to show goodwill, of course he wouldn't say anything more, otherwise wouldn't it seem like he had a small belly, so Su Xiaoman packed up the official document and sent it in with him.
Just as Su Xiaoman walked into Huang Shangshu's room, Zhang Wu suddenly stretched out a foot, and Xiaoman immediately tripped over his foot and fell down in a daze.
This Wuhuan pretended to be a gesture, pretending to want to save Xiaoman, grabbed Xiaoman's hairband, and ripped it open at once, and Xiaoman's long hair was all draped on his shoulders.
After Xiaoman fell to the ground, it took a moment to react, and now his hair was completely loose, and he looked like a girl.
After hearing the movement, the servant of the ministry hurriedly ran over, and when he saw Su Xiaoman on the ground, as well as her long black hair, the whole person was stunned, and secretly complained in his heart, how could Wei Xiuyuan find him a girl.
The servant was now speechless.
