Chapter 391: Negotiation
"So, Old Madam Chen's door-to-door request was also arranged by Senior Brother Xie?" Han Yan snorted and asked.
Xie Zhiyi shook her head and said frankly: "No matter how much I want to serve the country and be loyal to the country, I will never disturb her old man." It's just a coincidence. Originally, I planned to take the initiative to talk to you if Senior Brother Han didn't come to me. ”
After all, he is a reader, and his ethics cannot be discarded.
It's just that he didn't expect that the Chen family happened to have something to find him, and Han Yan happened to be suspicious because of this, so he pushed the boat down the river.
Han Yan believed that Xie Zhiyi, who had already confessed so much to him, there was no need to lie and deceive him on this matter, so he asked with a smile: "Then dare to ask Senior Brother Xie, if he is reused by the Holy Lord, will you promote several uncles of the Chen family?" ”
Xie Zhiyi pondered for a moment, then raised his head and sighed: "Even the saints are separated from each other, how can we be so foolish as we can avoid vulgarity?" ”
After a moment of conversation, he said with an awe-inspiring face: "However, if they are really incompetent, I will never recommend them!" In addition to worrying about the king, we must also resolutely put an end to harming the public with private interests! ”
"Bang bang." Han Yan clapped his hands and praised with a smile when he heard this: "Good! With Senior Brother Xie's words today, I am relieved! In this way, at present, the government and the opposition are busy supporting the establishment of a new monarch, and this matter will be discussed later.
"It's just that there is one thing I have to explain in advance, I am only responsible for recommending, and the result depends on the holy will. Moreover, the head of the household should be strong and strong, and if Senior Brother Xie wants to go further, I am afraid that it will not be easy. ”
Regardless of whether Xie Zhiyi's words were true or not, at least the posture was fully done, and Han Yan naturally did not want to continue to compete.
Besides, Da Zhou has accumulated disadvantages and is waiting to be revived, and it is a big problem to pay back money and food, and Xie Zhiyi has this money bag, so Xiao Wangzhi can worry less in the future.
Xie Zhiyi originally opened his mouth to say that he could be transferred to other positions, but when the words came to his lips, he thought of the specialty he said when he recommended himself, so he silently stopped the conversation, got up and thanked him: "In this way, there is Senior Brother Lao Han." ”
Although it is a thank-you, it is calm and calm, and the end is not half a minute, and it is elegant and straightforward.
Han Yan arched his hand, exchanged a few words with Xie Zhiyi, and then got up to say goodbye.
Xie Zhiyi left a few sentences, and when she saw that Han Yan insisted on leaving, she personally sent the person out of the door.
When he returned to the main courtyard, Chen greeted him and asked worriedly, "Master, can this matter be done?" Lord Xiao Han shouldn't be perfunctory to you, right? ”
"Not really." Xie Zhiyi shook his head, took Chen's hand, and said with a smile, "You haven't seen him before, happy and sincere, straightforward and sincere, and doesn't speak without turning a corner." How can such a person be willing to wronged himself to perfunctory others? ”
Of course, at that time, everyone was in the country's prison, and they disagreed with the officialdom with complicated personnel, and as the son-in-law of Han Yan's family, he did have the capital to be happy and revenge.
"The master also said that it was before." Chen was still not at ease, and persuaded in a low voice, "There is a way that people's hearts are fickle, why don't you make another plan?" ”
Xie Zhiyi pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said: "Don't bother the two masters for anything, don't step on two boats with one foot, since I have found him, I should trust him." ”
What's more, the relatives and friends of the Chen family mentioned by the Chen family are far from enough in the court compared to Han Yan, and they are also conditional to help him, so naturally they can't be compared with Han Yan's convenient and flat shortcut.
"Madame, don't worry." Xie Zhiyi saw that the Chen family was still not at ease, so she smiled at her hand and explained slowly, "It is said that the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change, although Senior Brother Han is very different from the past, but his temperament will not change greatly......
Xie Zhiyi spoke softly and comforted.
He can't say that most of the relatives and friends of the Chen family are too selfish and unreliable, which makes the Chen family sad.
The husband and wife whispered quietly for a while, and Chen gradually relieved.
"If this goes well, when the new emperor ascends the throne, I will have real power, and I no longer have to bear the title of the household servant, but in fact, everything is controlled by others. When the time comes, I will be able to help a few uncles, and I will save my father-in-law and mother-in-law from worrying, and I will still work for them at such an old age. Xie Zhiyi smiled, her bright eyes full of expectations for the future.
Chen was very moved when she heard this, but reason still made her open her mouth and persuade: "Mother's visit to the house that time was just a casual mention, you don't have to take it to heart. As much as the brothers have, they can take on as many official errands as they have, as long as they are safe and smooth, why do they have to soar?
"Lest they be overwhelmed when they are punished, not to mention that they will be punished, but it will also affect you, the recommender."
Xie Zhiyi was very touched by Chen's single-mindedness towards him, but he also knew in his heart that he could let his mother-in-law, who had always only taught her husband and children in the inner house, come to the house in person to mention this matter to him, which showed that it was not just a casual remark.
He knew that his father-in-law, Chen Youliang's health, was getting worse and worse, and he couldn't tell if he would be gone one day.
And the Chen family is not a family of eunuchs like the Han family and the Zhuang family, and the family background is not rich, if the father-in-law Chen Youliang dies, those relationships in the past will eventually slowly dissipate.
When the time comes, a few uncles with mediocre qualifications are afraid that it will be difficult to be as stable as they are now, let alone take another step to revive the Chen family.
None of his uncles and brothers in his own family have become successful, and they have never even stepped into the officialdom, and the cousin with the highest "official position" is just the county magistrate of his hometown who summons him to be a small official in the government office, not even an official.
And the next generation of qualified children and nephews have not yet grown up.
Therefore, the only people who can help him at the moment are the uncles of the Chen family.
Although the Chen family's uncles have mediocre qualifications, they are better at being diligent and diligent, and if they can be placed in proper positions, they will definitely be their own safe and reliable backing in the future.
When the next generation of excellent children and nephews grow up, they can also form trees, open the way for them, send them farther, and make the Xie family and the Chen family more and more prosperous.
In officialdom, if you don't have any connections, you can't go it alone.
"The so-called knowing people and being good at their duties, I still have this self-confidence." Xie Zhiyi said with a smile, "Madame don't have to worry, as long as the uncles are in an official position that suits them, they will definitely be able to make some achievements!"
"The Chen family is getting better and better, isn't it exactly what you and I expected?
"Besides, when the time comes, our children have the support of their uncles, and the road will be smoother and smoother!"
Chen was concerned about his mother's brother, and thought about the child's future, thought about it for a while, and finally nodded in agreement, but repeatedly told Xie Zhiyi to do what he could, and not to be demanding.
If Xie Zhiyi made a mistake, then what was the point of all the efforts?
