"It is said that there are two Jiangyang thieves, and while drinking wine and eating meat in a big bowl, they will inevitably go to the Qinglou to call a few beautiful girls for fun. Someone in the next room was talking about a corrupt official who was said to have received more than a dozen boxes of money and treasures from someone, so he passed downstairs. The two of them had practiced martial arts, and their ears and eyes were sharp, and they could hear the words in the next room clearly. I even forgot about the wind and snow, drove all the sisters beside me out, discussed a few words at home, and went down from the window, chasing the big fat fish all the way. What they didn't know was that there was a figure next door to them who was a hundred times better than them in martial arts, and he happened to listen to what they discussed. Feng Jinjie smiled and groaned, "This peerless master is outstanding, plump and chic, and he has attracted four or five of the top Qinglou fans to fight for him, this woman fights, if the man does not slip away early, the end will be miserable." He escaped from the Qinglou alone, thinking that this idle was also idle, so he ran to meddle in his affairs. ”

He said it slowly, and he didn't know how many words were true or false, Lu Dongli only laughed when he heard it, but Lu Dongjue was angry: "You knew that they were going to attack us, and you didn't come earlier, causing us to suffer so much." ”

Feng Jinjie glanced at him: "Nephrite Wen Xiang threw himself into his arms, which idiot would push away the beauty to care about the life and death of two big men, if it weren't for Liji, Rushu and they would have fought......" He sighed gloomily, with regret on his face, "Who has the leisure to come here to drink." ”

Lu Dongjue was so angry that his face trembled, and he almost didn't take his back to breathe.

Lu Dongli smiled: "Dongjue." He's teasing you, and you're going to be fooled. Those Jianghu characters, if they want to steal or rob, they naturally have to choose to start in the middle of the night, of course, he doesn't have to rush over. ”

Lu Dongjue was stunned: "If he had made a move earlier, at least you wouldn't have been frightened." ”

Feng Jinjie said casually: "There are strange things every year, especially this year, thank you for saving your life." It's no wonder that the salvation didn't come earlier, and he didn't put him first in everything, the so-called truth of the scholar really admires ordinary people like me. ”

"You ......" Lu Dongjue was so blushing by his count, Lu Dongjue looked pitiful and smiled: "He is still a child." What do you care about with him? ”

Feng Jinjie sneered: "If you don't care, if you don't care, you won't be good Hanlin and run down to make the county order." ”

Lu Dongli was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "You know." ”

"My business is all over the country, and I have opened three silk houses, four money houses, and five or six jewelry stores in the capital, and even the business in the palace is often done, so I want to inquire about the news. It's never hard. "Feng Jinjie looks at him" Lu Dongli, Dingjiang Lu's. Generations of books. Although there has been a slight decline in recent years, the life of the clan is a little embarrassing. Among the children, Lu Dongli was born a genius, and at the age of 12, he should take the boy's exam, and at the age of 16, he was already on the gold list. ”

Lu Dongjue finally found an opportunity to interject: "Actually, Brother Lobby's article did the best, but because he was too young and the first rank was not good for him, he was sent to the second list." Speaking of which, the look of regret "also lost the opportunity to be famous all over the world." ”

Lu Dongli smiled slightly: "Originally, Dingjia was the champion." Bangyan, Tanhua. As usual, he wants to enter the Hanlin Academy, but the second class has the opportunity to be sent to the lower head as an official, and it is really useful to the world, which is better than staying in the palace to dance and write. ”

Lu Dongjue disagreed: "But every time there is a big exam, only the names of the champions, Bangyan, and Tanhua will be spread all over the world and envied by Shilin, and a few people remember what the names of the second-class jinshi are." ”

Feng Jinjie sneered again: "The Confucian scholars want to grab the name of the first class, but they are poisoned by celebrities and scholars, and they are ashamed of the way of practical economy, thinking that it is the ability of lay officials, the tools of states and counties rather than the tools of temples, in fact, practice is the foundation of the world, and this cube can be said." If you can't be practical, even if you can do a good article about the Huatuan Jin family, you are just an emperor and a guest. No matter how lucky you are, you only occasionally go to the palace to accompany the emperor to do almost poems, and if you are unlucky, you will be a cold bench for life, what is the interest. Those people envy the champion, but they were harmed by the drama, thinking that as soon as they became the champion, they would immediately be the patrol of the eight mansions, with the sword in their palms, and they would marry the daughter of the prime minister, the princess of the emperor, and where did they know, it was the champion, and it was just the revision of the six products, and the list of eyes and flowers was only edited from the seven products. ”

Lu Dongjue protested: "But Brother Lobby has done a good job, although he is a second-class, he has also been sealed to the fifth grade, and he often responds to the call, and he is favored by the saints." ”

Feng Jinjie looked at Lu Dongli with a smile: "I don't know if you are lucky or unlucky." It was supposed to be sent to the local government as an official, but because you are too young, the people in the ministry don't know what position to arrange for you, and the article is too good, although you are not in the first class, the emperor does not want to let you go, so make an exception to let you enter the Hanlin Academy, you have been accompanied by the king a few times, the poems and articles are done well, and the official position has been promoted and promoted, and within three years to the fifth grade. ”

Lu Dongli smiled: "It's not necessarily good, but because I was young at the time, there were some deficiencies in the article, and no one cared about me, so I was greatly praised for a little benefit." ”

"What's more, the emperor also likes young and beautiful people, there is a handsome young man next to him who laughs and answers, and writes lyrics with poems, which is better than the goosebump-haired universities, which is pleasing to the eye." Wind Festival laughed.

Lu Dongli was angry and funny: "You are talking about today's saints, can you not be so mean." ”

Feng Jinjie didn't hear it, and only looked at him with a smile: "You are so favored, why did you run down to become an official?" ”

Lu Dongjue also cheered up and looked at Lu Dongli: "Yes, Brother Lobby, what the hell is going on, you are in the capital, entering and leaving the palace, accompanying the king, what a glorious scenery, why do you have to go down." The elders of the family are counting on you to have a position in the court in a few years, but you are throwing away your good future, and when you hear the news, the elders of the clan are very angry, and you don't say the reason for asking you. ”

Lu Dongli smiled and shook his head: "The so-called once you enter the Dragon Gate, you will rise to prominence, and the so-called fame in the first exam, you will immediately enter the phase, participate in state affairs, and be reused, in fact, it is really just a drama and idle talk." I really didn't know until I was in the officialdom that that place was the most senior, and it was difficult to open the door to enter, and it shouldn't be opened. I have been a Hanlin for three years, and I have been promoted from the seventh rank to the fifth rank, which can be regarded as a fast promotion, and I am often called into the palace, which is highly appreciated by the saints. However, the Holy One will never ask about our country's affairs, nor will he elevate our local official position to the point where he is sufficient to participate in state affairs. In fact, if it were me, I would also oppose such a personnel promotion. He sighed slightly, "You are in a distant village and town, looking at my infinite scenery, how do you know that my errand is actually just a meeting of documents, issuing some routine edicts, such as commending a certain local lady, or sending a decree to reward some officials." He was not even qualified to participate in the court. It is said that it is the edict of Hanlin, but in fact, the really important edict is drafted by its own scholars, and it has nothing to do with me, and my daily errand is just to go to the yamen to take a turn, do some idle official business, and then go home and wait for the emperor's occasional summons. ”

He smiled slightly bitterly: "Yes, my poems are well done, I accompany the emperor to drink banquets, visit the garden, play the piano, and chat, and I will do it for a few more years, and I will naturally be promoted, and I will always have a position in the court, and then I will rise step by step, but I have been deep in the clouds for such a long time, and I don't know the people??, I don't understand economic practice, even if I live in a high position."

?? It's just a rotten Confucian. ”

Feng Jinjie looked at him fixedly, and his eyes were a little mocking: "So you give up that great future, but you want to go down to the local area, work hard to do practical things, worry about thankless labor, just want to really do something for the people?" ”

Lu Dongli smiled bitterly: "There are naturally some reasons for this, but not all, in fact, I want to be an official below, and part of the reason is that if this Hanlin continues to do it, I am afraid that I will be so poor that I will go to the street to ask for food." ”

Lu Dongjue felt even more incredible: "How could it be? Brother Hall, your official income is enough, doesn't the emperor always have rewards? ”

Lu Dongli sighed: "It's this reward that killed me." Dongjue, do you think that the emperor's reward is all gold and silver? The treasury is really a mountain of gold. The emperor's reward is just a meaning, the picture is the glory and dignity rather than the wealth, and the reward we get from Hanlin is usually a few pens, a box of good cakes, a plate of delicious dishes, a few pots of imperial wine and the like, that is, it cannot be used or sold, and it is not worth a few dollars. But that is the emperor's reward, no matter how valuable it is, it is also a glory, and it must be a bunch of eunuchs, who will be held in a mighty way, beat gongs and drums and send them to the door, so that the emperor's grace will be great. As many eunuchs come, you have to develop as many rewards as you want, and you must not be stingy when you make a move. Otherwise, I will offend the ministers, and I don't know where the disaster will come from the sky, and my official salary is not high, because I want to accompany the king to drive, and the façade work cannot be less. Later, as soon as I heard that there was a reward for the eunuch at the front door, I had to find something valuable at home, open the back door and send it to the pawnshop. ”

Lu Dongjue was dumbfounded when he heard this: "This, this...... According to you, all the Hanlin is so poor that they have to be pants. ”

"That's not true, in fact, most of Hanlin's life is still good. Because of the admission to the Hanlin Academy. Most of them are the champions of the list of eyes to explore the flowers, or full of Confucianism, they are famous all over the world, since someone will come to the door to ask for words and paintings, this money is not hurtful, and the scenery is decent. How much of a famous old Hanlin. It is by writing and drawing to others that you can maintain the scenery of a large family. It's just that I'm too young and famous, although I am praised for my genius when I meet, and they all say that I am young and promising, but I really ask for a word to hang on the middle hall, and I don't have enough fame and qualifications, so I am extremely cold in front of the door. ”

Lu Dongjue was not convinced: "But, Brother Lobby, your calligraphy, painting, poetry and writing are all excellent." ”

Feng Jinjie sneered on the side: "Silly boy. Those who have the money to ask for words, who know how to read. It's just that it's hung out for others to see, and a person's reputation is not big and it hasn't dried up. Where will there be business coming to the door. ”

Lu Dongli sighed: "First, I am so poor that I have no way out, and second, I don't want to be famous for the ability to accompany the king." On a visit to the garden, I made a poem in response to the order, and took the leader, and when the emperor asked me what reward I wanted, I had the courage to ask to be an official in the local area. to increase knowledge. ”

Feng Jinjie had a mocking smile on his face again: "Your emperor saw that you were so ignorant of current affairs, and he looked like he wanted to avoid him." It must be very unhappy, you will fall out of favor and be driven away by the emperor. is obviously from the level of the fifth grade, but he goes to the local level to be a sixth-grade, and even from the sixth-grade official. ”

Lu Dongli just smiled, with some nostalgia in his eyes: "In those years, I was an official in various places, and I saw a lot of things and did a lot of things, and I felt that I lived up to this life." ”

Feng Jinjie smiled and poured him a glass of wine: "Lord Lu, in those years, you floated around the provinces, and you have done official positions in various places, and each of them can't last long." The official position is getting smaller and smaller, the real power is getting less and less, thanks to your really good cultivation, never anxious or frustrated, every time you take up a new post, you concentrate on doing your part, but unfortunately every time you do a little bit of success, you are driven away, your credit, and was robbed by the new official, you are still not discouraged, what a strange person. ”

Lu Dongjue said angrily: "What's so funny, my cousin has suffered so much, it's not because he is a clean official. Dedicated to working for your people, but not getting much in return, and suffering a lot of grievances, this unwarranted disaster is not for you. ”

Feng Jinjie glanced at him coldly: "Is Qingguan very proud?" In these days, the Qing officials are just some anachronistic fools. Only in the drama and legend, there is a myth that a clean official cuts off corrupt officials everywhere, and in reality, it is often a group of corrupt officials who overthrow or assimilate a clean official. Your brother, who is honest and honest, does not take any money, but how many people have hindered his affairs and how many people have blocked his way, why did he do a good job in the provincial capital, and was inexplicably transferred to the next county seat? It's not because it's a stumbling block for other officials. Why do you think he can be an official in peace? It's just because he is still shrewd and steady, careful everywhere, and doesn't let other corrupt officials get too much leverage, and because after all, he has been a minister who accompanies the king for two years, and other magistrates don't dare to do things absolutely, but if he continues to live like this, he may really go down in history because he is a clean official, but he will definitely die unexpectedly and end up bleak. ”

Lu Dongli just quietly listened to Feng Jinjie's unceremonious discussion, everything he paid was really worthless in Feng Jinjie's mouth, but ridiculous, however, he just smiled lightly, raised his eyebrows, and stared at the white-clothed maniac opposite, as if there was no one in the world and nothing to see in his eyes: "Jinjie, you suddenly said these things, there must be a reason, no need to go around in circles, if you have anything to say, you can talk to me directly." ”

*Author's nonsense dividing line*

Changes to cousin and cousin titles.

Generally speaking, people with the same surname and clan are called cousins. Otherwise, they are called cousins.

Originally, I used to read it sideways, and Lu Dongjue and Lu Dongli should be cousins.

However, because my hometown has always used the name of cousin, it is only divided into uncle and aunt, and the brothers on either side are called cousins and cousins, and I rarely hear the name of cousins.

Therefore, I am very accustomed to letting Lu Dongjue call Lu Dongli his big cousin.

In fact, in many of my works, I will unconsciously make this mistake, which makes many readers question when reading.

Yesterday, when I saw a reader's reply, I realized that my writing was a bit inappropriate.

So when I wrote it today, I asked Lu Dongjue to change his name back to his cousin's name.

In addition, yesterday we actually made a mistake on a major issue.

I think I miss Light Dust so much, and besides, I've compiled the names of several main characters into the auto thesaurus, and maybe if I accidentally press it, Jinjie will become Light Dust.

And I myself have been nagging about Qingchen recently, which directly caused me to be completely numb when I was more right, and when I saw the word Qingchen, I didn't react at all, and I completely realized that I was wrong, which was really dizzy.

Fortunately, the VIP chapter can still be modified, so as soon as I saw the reader's message, I immediately revised it. I'm so ashamed.

Such an important name, such an important call, are all wrong. I guess when readers read it, they are also confused, angry and funny.
