Chapter 721: Far Away (Medium)
Xu Sijin was afraid that these people would make trouble and mess up his trip to Guizhou: "It's Wang Sheng who said this." At this time, it is better to be still than to be still. He said, scratching his head, "The most troublesome thing now is my father...... Yesterday I was trained hard for two hours, and my legs were straight, and I still tremble. ”
Everyone burst out laughing.
Wang Sheng's family is also a relative, but his ancestor is the brother of Queen Taizu, although he is still hereditary commander, but his grace is gradually exhausted, and he is usually not less angry with these powerful ministers.
He asked Xu Sijin with great concern: "Do you want to go to the capital to command the envoy or to go to the guard station?" ”
"Most of them will go to the guardhouse." Xu Sijin said helplessly, "My father said that he wanted to accept my temperament." ”
"It's fine!" Wang Sheng comforted him, "You go first." When the time comes, let your aunt cry a few more times in front of your uncle, and your uncle will definitely be soft-hearted, and you will be able to return to Beijing for a year or two years at the latest. When the time comes, the Xishan camp and the Praetorian Guard, why don't you choose? ”
Xu Sijin looked unconfident: "I hope it will be as Brother Wang said!" ”
"It's not necessarily bad to go to Guizhou!" Xie Yan, who had been silent, suddenly said, "I heard that the inspection of a small inspection department below can be three or four thousand taels of silver a year. In my opinion, at this time, instead of thinking about how to come back, it is better to find a way to find an errand, but I am afraid that it is better than staying in Yanjing. ”
Although they are either all commanders and envoys, or they all command and make the same knowledge, they only enjoy this treatment and have no real power. Just living on Yulu is not enough to go to Chunxi Tower for a drink.
Wang Sheng listened and his spirits lit up: "Brother Xie's words make sense. Then he said to Xu Si, "I think Brother Xie has a good idea." With your qualifications......" As soon as the voice fell, he felt that it was inappropriate, and said busily, "The main thing is that you are too young...... Your age, even if you reach the Xishan Camp or the Praetorian Guard, you can only start as a standard-bearer, but it's different outside. Why are you also going from the capital, so we won't go to the commander of the division, so as not to cause trouble for you Gong Dongning, but this main and deputy thousand households have to do something, right? Otherwise, it's really unreasonable! As he spoke, he patted Xie Yan's shoulder with a smile, "Brother Xie, I can't see that you still have such a strategy!" ”
Xie Yan said modestly: "Brother Wang has won the award, and I have no way to do it, just give Brother Jin an idea!" ”
"I think this idea will work!" Wang Sheng groaned, "I know a secretary of the Military Division, and when the time comes, I will invite him to have a drink, send him some silver, and let him find a way to get you a letter of appointment for a thousand households." If I don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, I don't believe that Gong Dongning made a special trip to confront the Wu Xuan Division for this matter? ”
The Armed Forces Selection Division is responsible for the selection and appointment of non-commissioned officers, promotion and deployment, hereditary replacement, and rewards. The secretary is just an official in charge of specific government affairs, and if Xu Sijin wants to find a principal or deputy household, he must find a squire if he does not look for the secretary of the military department. Listening to Wang Sheng's tone, it was obvious that he wanted to do it privately and buy one with silver. But this is not the light of day after all. Gong Dongning, the general of Guizhou, is a general who conquers the west, with old qualifications and a short temper...... The thought flashed, and his heart moved: "Gong Dongning once followed his uncle to the west, and his uncle should be very familiar with him, right?" Brother Jin, you're going to Guizhou, your uncle should give you the bottom? How is this Gong Dongning and your relationship? ”
As soon as his words fell, everyone's eyes fell on Xu Sijin.
Xu Sijin couldn't help but secretly applaud.
This Xie Yan, who usually looks at hip-hop and is not serious, and he doesn't want to think about the problem, but he can hit the nail on the head.
Although his father did not explain anything to him, after returning home, he sent a letter to Gong Dongning, and asked him if he had the confidence to pass the test, which shows that he was confident in instructing Gong Dongning.
Some people say that the emperor doesn't want him to go to Guangdong because he doesn't want him to be a soldier under his father's old subordinate Xu Li, if so, the relationship between the family and Gong Dongning is still not good.
Thinking of this, Xu Sijin shook his head gently: "My father has been busy with this and that since he came back, he hasn't said anything to me yet." I don't know what is the relationship between Gong Dongning and our family? ”
Then we can't let us go down the road of secretaryship......
"I heard that Brother Jin was going to Guizhou, so I sent someone to inquire about Gong Dongning's personality." Xie Yan said euphemistically, "He is a very short-tempered person, he once disagreed with a word, and killed the generals around him, otherwise, he would not have nested in Guizhou for more than ten years without moving a place." But if you are one of his people, he is very protective of his shortcomings, and he can't listen to others say no...... It's better not to mess with such people. I inquired that Lu Shangshu of the Ministry of War and Dou Ge are always in the same department," he said, he looked at Xu Sijin, "In case Yi Shangshu can't talk there, you can try it with Dou Ge Lao." It's about your future, and I think my uncle will definitely come forward! ”
Wang Sheng's face stiffened slightly when he heard this, and his eyes revealed a little calmness.
Xie Yan didn't pay attention, but Wei Xun on the side saw it clearly, and he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
"Daddy is about to get angry," Xu Si smiled solemnly, "Only in a few days will I have the opportunity to probe in front of his old man!" ”
"Alright, alright, what are you talking about?" Wei Xun interrupted them with some impatience, "I think the first priority is to pack your luggage - first, you must bring more silver tickets; Second, you have to bring a few more capable maids, the place in Guizhou is full of barbarians, you don't want to bring a few more capable maids, let alone food, it is estimated that it is a little difficult to wear neat clothes. ”
"It's not as exaggerated as you say!" Xie Yan said, "I read the local chronicles, although there are mostly barbarians, but there are gold mines there, because it is close to Sichuan, and medicinal materials are also produced......
"Really! It's true! Wei Xun interrupted him excitedly and said to Wang Sheng, "Why don't we do business with Brother Jin?" Wherever the merchants go, they must pay homage to the guards, and they are not full. As he spoke, he leaned over to Wang Sheng and sat down, "What do you think of my idea?" ”
"That's it!" Wang Sheng's face flushed with excitement, and he said to Xu Si, "Brother Jin, I think you might as well stay in Guizhou for two more years." If you can find a gold mine, you'll be done! ”
"It's not realistic to find a gold mine!" Xie Yan smiled, "Even if we find out, there is Gong Dongning!" He has been operating in Guizhou for decades, and he is his person up and down, and we want to bypass him, but I'm afraid it's a little difficult! ”
Wei Xun couldn't wait to kick Xie Yan.
When he said this, he just wanted to divert Wang Sheng's attention, but this Xie Yan jumped in again.
"We can't do gold mines, can't we do the medicinal herb business either?" Wei Xun glared at Xie Yan, "I don't believe it, then Gong Dongning still covers the sky with one hand, can he eat alone?" ”
Xie Yan wanted to say something, but Xu Sijin sighed: "What's the use of talking about this now, the important thing is to find a way to get an official position?" Otherwise, even if there are mountains of gold and silver piled up in front of me, it won't be my turn! ”
"What kind of official position do you want to get?" With a gentle voice with a little smile, Xu Sizhen walked in.
"Lord Shizi!" "Fourth brother!" Several people hurriedly got up and saluted him.
"You are all friends of the sixth brother, so you don't need to be so polite. Just follow the sixth brother and call me the fourth brother. Xu Sizhen returned the salute with a smile, everyone let him sit in the first place, he smiled, "I just walked to the door, and I heard the sixth brother say that he wants to get an official position, what is going on?" ”
Xie Yan and Wei Xun both looked at Xu Sijin, waiting for him to speak, but Wang Sheng said what had just happened before Xu Sijin: "...... The gang of people in the Wu Xuan Division have their eyes on the top of their heads, but unfortunately we are young, and if we have anything to do with them, they will only hum and ask the elders to come forward. As he spoke, he let out a long sigh, but the corner of his eye glanced towards Xu Sizhen.
"That's it!" Xu Sizhen showed a thoughtful expression, and after a while, he said with a smile, "Those people from the Wuxuan Division are indeed not easy to deal with!" Then he asked them, "It's a nice day, why don't you put lunch in Liufangwu, where the flowers are red and willow green, what do you think?" ”
Liufangwu is planted with silver-edged willow trees on both sides, and a few sticky seashores are planted.
"Listen to the fourth brother!" Xie Yan and the others all responded with a smile, only Wang Sheng, with a few disappointed expressions in his eyes.
After dinner, a group of people dispersed.
Xu Si went to greet Mrs. Tai.
The courtyard was brightly lit, Xu Lingyi, Xu Lingkuan, Eleven Niang, Fifth Lady, Second Lady, and Xu Sizhen and a group of small characters, all of them were standing in the courtyard, and Mrs. Tai's inner room was dark and unlit.
Xu Sijin was taken aback: "What's the matter?" ”
"Brother Jin, you're here just in time!" The second lady perked up, "Your grandmother heard that you were going to Guizhou, blamed your father for not doing his best, and no one saw him!" We couldn't persuade us, so we just shouted that we should bring the queen mother. also said that if we don't go, her old man will go to Shuntianfu to sue your father for unfilial piety, and then she will personally go to the palace to hand over the sign! Go and persuade your grandmother. ”
Sue your father for unfilial piety?
Xu Si couldn't hold back so that he didn't laugh, and looked at Xu Lingyi with his own assertive eyes.
Although my father stood there calmly and calmly as usual, there was a look of embarrassment in his eyes.
He stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Grandmother, I'm Brother Jin'er, open the door quickly." If you don't open the door, my father will go to the government to sue me for being unfilial! ”
Except for Xu Lingyi, everyone in the courtyard covered their mouths and lowered their heads, and the fifth lady ran out directly, and Brother Xu'er gave Xu Sijin a thumbs up.
The lamp in the inner room was lit, the door creaked open, and Fat Hong walked out nervously: "Mrs. Tai said, let the sixth young master in!" ”
Xu Sijin walked in quickly.
"I'll go in and take a look!" Brother Xue ran in with a puff of smoke.
"I'm going in too!" Brother Cheng rolled his eyes and ran in.
"The seventh and eighth uncles have gone," Brother Ting said in a milky voice, "I'm going too!" ”
Jiang hurriedly hugged his son: "Uncles, you have something to do here, you have here to accompany your grandfather and grandmother!" ”
Brother Ting reluctantly withdrew his gaze.
It was good that it was spring and the yard was warm.
Eleven Niang whispered to the little maid to bring the brocade over to sit for the pregnant Xiang and Yingniang, the two of them resigned for a long time, or Xu Lingyi frowned, and the two sat down.
Yingying and Brother Ting were young after all, and after waiting for a while, they moved their bodies there, Xu Sijie took them outside the courtyard, picked bamboo leaves and played tunes for the two, and took them to play.
After waiting for about half a pillar of incense, Mrs. Tai's door opened again.
Fat red bowed to everyone: "Mrs. Tai said, let everyone sit in the house!" ”
