Since Emperor Kangping went north to visit Liaodong, the relevant matters have been arranged, and there has been an endless stream of carriages and horses who have come to Xie Mansion to visit.

Xie Zhiyi shirked not being at home, quietly went out the back door, and went straight to the Han Mansion.

Xie Zhiyi really didn't expect that Han Yan would let go of old ministers like Han Qian and Zhuang Han, who were known for their prestige and close relationship with the Han family, but they would only recommend him to take charge of the dynasty when Emperor Kangping left Beijing and went north.

Of course, Xie Zhiyi is confident in his talents; But in terms of qualifications, he is far from being counted - the last time he was in charge of the negotiations between the Great Zhou and Warat, he has been promoted and favored.

Xie Zhiyi didn't know what Han Yan had taken a fancy to him, so he cultivated and recommended him again and again, regardless of his previous suspicions. If he doesn't understand this, even if he is a supreme minister, he always feels melancholy in his heart, and he has nothing to lose.

Therefore, he secretly went out of the house, intending to visit Han Yan and ask what was going on.

It was also a coincidence, Han Yan happened to be in the mansion this day to discuss with Shu Yu about taking Han Xin and Han Jia to the north together, and when he heard the door say that Xie Zhiyi asked to see him, he paused slightly, and smiled at Shu Yu: "It seems that I, a senior brother who is self-reliant and self-contained, was really frightened by this appointment, so I am willing to be honest and have a good talk with me." ”

Of course, we have talked about it before, for example, when I wanted to recommend Xie Zhiyi to oversee the matters discussed between the two countries in Liaodong, but at that time, it was a matter of facts, and as for some prevarications, both sides still had reservations.

Today, I can explain it thoroughly about once and for all.

Shu Yu joked when he heard this: "It's finally not in vain for your investigation and guidance over the years." ”

Since Xie Zhiyi followed the first emperor to the north for autumn hunting, Han Yan noticed Xie Zhiyi, and then spent a lot of manpower and material resources to investigate this person.

It can be said that Han Yan spent much more thoughts on Xie Zhiyi than on her.

Han Yan saw Shu Yu teasing him, so he smiled and responded: "The lady's words are wrong. Although I have played a role in this, the most important thing is that he is willing to work hard and seek progress, otherwise if he meets a character like Adou, I am afraid that even if Zhuge Kongming is alive, it will be useless! ”

After saying this, Shu Yu couldn't help laughing.

Han Yan also smiled, smiled and breathed a long sigh of relief, and raised his eyebrows and said: "When Lord Xie can be on his own, I can step down and return to the field, get rid of mundane things, and from now on, I will be a free and easy fairy couple with you!" ”

Thinking of such a wanton and chic day, Han Yan couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips and laughed.

Shu Yu was shocked when she heard this, she didn't expect Han Yan to deliberately promote Xie Zhiyi, in addition to cultivating virtuous ministers for Emperor Kangping in the future, it turned out to be for herself to get out of the way, and she couldn't help but be moved and looked forward to it in her heart.

"That's great!" Shu Yu applauded and smiled, "I have long wanted to go out for a walk and have a look, but I see that you have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders and the children are still young, so I have endured it and didn't say anything." Unexpectedly, you silently arranged everything! ”

Han Yan raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Of course! As a good husband, it is necessary to think about what his wife thinks, seek what his wife wants, and make his wife safe and happy for a lifetime! ”

As he spoke, he gently pinched the tip of Shu Yu's nose with his hand, with a smile on his face.

But Shu Yu understood that behind Han Yan's "frivolous" behavior, there was his true affection and affection, so he was more and more moved, as if he had eaten honey, sweet to the bottom of his heart.

"Okay, let's come back and talk about it later, you go quickly, don't let Master Xie wait for a long time, ruin your 'wishful thinking', and you will regret it too late!" Shu Yu sniffed, quickly got up, and pushed Han Yan out with a smile on his face.

Han Yan smiled and didn't say anything more, just quietly squeezed Shu Yu's hand, and then walked to the front yard.

Shu Yu looked at Han Yan's back as he strode away, and the tears he was holding back fell suddenly, but the corners of his mouth were raised high.

……

In the front yard, in the outer study.

Xie Zhiyi, who was sitting restlessly drinking tea, quickly got up and greeted Han Yan when he saw him come in.

The two sides saluted, Xie Zhiyi greeted Han Qian and Meng Shi again, and the two sat down separately.

After drinking tea once, Han Yan pretended not to know and asked with a smile, "I don't know what Senior Brother Xie is here?" ”

Xie Zhiyi saw that Han Yan asked directly, and after thinking about it, he also put away the tactful and subtle etiquette in the past, and replied bluntly: "It is precisely to ask Lord Taifu about the prime minister's government when the lower official leaves Beijing in the north." ”

Seeing that Xie Zhiyi answered frankly, Han Yan also put away the previous politeness, and said with a straight face: "Oh? I wonder if Master Xie has any doubts? ”

Xie Zhiyi called his official position, and it was about court affairs, so Han Yan naturally changed his title, so it was appropriate.

Xie Zhiyi asked: "Why did Lord Taifu let go of the old ministers such as Lord Han and Lord Zhuang, but instead recommended Xiaguan, a fledgling new official?" ”

When Han Yan asked, he replied: "I did this for three reasons: first, Master Xie's ability is beyond doubt, enough to take on the affairs of the prime minister's government; Second, although the old ministers can be used, they also have their drawbacks, such as conservative thinking, and then intertwined interest relationships......"

Speaking of this, Han Yan paused slightly.

Xie Zhiyi thought about it and thought so.

If nothing else, let's just talk about the old days of the Sun Party, which is still dormant in the DPRK and waiting for an opportunity, isn't it the best example?

"Dare to ask why?" Xie Zhiyi thought about it, and then asked.

Han Yan looked at Xie Zhiyi for a while before replying, "Third, when the Holy Lord is in power in the future, Lord Xie will definitely be the one who resolutely supports it!" ”

Xie Zhiyi was stunned when she heard this, and it took a while to come back to her senses, what Han Yan said was not only the truth, but also the requirements he made!

As an upstart in the court, he has come to this point thanks to the appreciation of Emperor Kangping and Han Yan, and now he is already equivalent to "entering the cabinet to worship the prime minister" at a young age.

However, Han Yan specially brought up this matter at this time, obviously not knowingly talking nonsense, but with a deep meaning.

Xie Zhiyi pondered silently for a moment, suddenly realized, and hurriedly got up and said: "Thank you, Lord Taifu, for solving your doubts, the lower officials will be loyal and wise, and they will repay the kindness of the saints!" ”

If there is no accident, the day Emperor Kangping returns from the north is the time when he is in power.

Therefore, during the period when Emperor Kangping left Beijing, he must clean up the dynasty and prepare for Emperor Kangping's return to pro-government!

Han Yan saw that Xie Zhiyi was thorough at all, and he was even satisfied, even if he smiled and asked Xie Zhiyi to have lunch before leaving.

Xie Zhiyi still had something to say to Han Yan, and when he heard the words, he didn't even have a polite look at you, so he responded happily.

Who knew that the two of them were very agreeable, so Xie Zhiyi simply ate dinner together in Han's mansion, and talked with Han Yan until the third watch, in order not to delay the morning court the next day, he still said goodbye and left.
