When I woke up, it was the first sun again.

Shen Ao has been eyebrow-raising with his wives in the new mansion for a few days, and he doesn't care about the things of the outside world for a while, if it weren't for the news from the ministry, I'm afraid that Shen Ao would still be in the clouds.

Early this morning, Shen Ao took a car, drove by Liu Sheng to the ministry, and when he arrived at the archway of the ministry, he saw Wu Bi waiting for a long time, Wu Bi and Cheng Hui were there, and even the forty-year-old Jinshi was also smiling and talking to someone.

It turned out that this person was Sun Qing, Shen Ao glanced at him and did not speak. After saluting Wu Bi, Cheng Hui also came over and said, "Shen Gongzi is a step too late." ”

Shen Ao smiled: "Ashamed, ashamed." ”

After a while, the officials of the ministry invited them to go in, and sat in the ear room, as soon as the autumn came, the officials were busy, large and small officials to be distributed, some people wanted to give office, some people wanted to fill the vacancy, this was the first to grant the official position, naturally it was Jinshi and the first, although it adhered to the meaning of the palace to do, but it also made people have a headache, the fat shortage in the world will always be so few, the palace set the tone, they can only try their best to vacate their positions.

Everyone went in and took a sip of tea, and the one named Sun Qing seemed to be showing that he was well-informed, and said to Xu Wei: "Brother Xu, I heard that you are going to Xijing this time, haha, there is a vacancy in Wannian County, Xijing, most of which is to fill there." ”

Xu Wei seemed to look down on him a little, but just sneered and didn't speak.

Dayqing's face was a little stiff, and he had to remain silent.

After a while, a cousin from the ministry came, accompanied everyone to talk for a while, and their attitude was not bad, completely in the tone of friends, if it was the Jinshi background who changed the award, or gave the same Jinshi background, the tone would not be so polite, after all, the people here are all people with great prospects, at most three or five years later, they will enter the court, of course, they must be kind to each other.

After clarifying the rules, the hall official said: "Lord Shangshu will be here immediately, please stay less." With that, he withdrew.

After a while, an old man in purple clothes and jade belt walked in, coughed, and attracted everyone's attention. After a pause, he continued: "Your Majesty has a will, which one is Wu Bi?" ”

Wu Bi said: "Students are. "It has not yet been officially conferred, so Wu Bi calls himself a student.

The old man looked at Wu Bi and said with a smile: "Is your father doing well lately?" ”

Wu Bi smiled: "My lord, my father is in good health. ”

The old man nodded: "You have awarded the county magistrate of Chang'an County this time, that is, you will take up the post." ”

Xijing has jurisdiction over Chang'an, Wannian two counties, its status is not low, to get a county, it is excellent, there is almost the second political center of the Great Song Dynasty, from Chang'an County to enter the office, I don't know how many people are envious of too late, Wu Bi was overjoyed, said: "Lord Xie." ”

The old man smiled, glanced at Xu Wei, and said: "This must be Xu Wei, haha, Your Majesty said that you are crazy and do not want to live under people, so you specially asked us to choose the county order of Wannian County for you, you can do it yourself, be more restrained, don't let the official family down." ”

Xu Wei nodded his head and arched his hand: "My lord raises love." ”

The old man looked at Cheng Hui: "Cheng Hui, the old man has seen it, this time I will award you the lieutenant of Qiantang County." ”

Qiantang is a county under the jurisdiction of Hangzhou, and it is also one of the largest fat shortages in the world, Cheng Hui hurriedly said: "Thank you for your love." ”

The old man's eyes fell on Na Riqing, his face was a little unpleasant, and he said quite coldly: "Riqing, you are older, Your Majesty originally let you enter the court, but Taishi Cai has been running for you in many ways, you have to remember his kindness, and grant you Renhe County Cheng, you can do it with your heart." ”

Riqing immediately said with sincere fear: "Your Majesty and great-grandfather are very loving, how dare students not do their best." ”

As soon as he said it, the people in the hall understood why this official Shangshu was so cold to him, calling Cai Jing his grandfather, this person is really shameless, he doesn't know who he worshipped as a godfather, according to this generation, even Cai Lun is just a great-grandfather who called Cai Jing, could it be that this guy worshipped Cai Lun as a godfather?

Shen Ao's face stiffened, and he couldn't help but think that when he came to this Great Song Dynasty, he knew what it meant to have no lower limit on his face.

The old man just snorted, no longer paid attention to Dayqing, and turned to Shen Ao and said, "Shen Ao, you are the county lieutenant of Renhe County, which was appointed by His Majesty." ”

Shen Ao nodded: "Lord Xie." ”

The old man said a little tiredly: "Okay, you will come to receive the seal and the quotation in a few days, and get ready to take office." Shen Ao, you stay, the old man still has something to say to you. ”

Everyone dispersed, Shen Ao sat still, and when everyone was dispersed, the old man got up and said with a smile: "When Master Shen got married, the old man also went to ask for a glass of water and wine. ”

Shen Ao smiled: "Your Excellency is too good. ”

The old man said: "I asked you to stay because His Majesty has something to convey, and you come over ......."

Shen Ao got closer, and the old man said: "There have been many troubles in the south of the Yangtze River, Fang La has been out in the past few years, and there have been bandits in recent years, Your Majesty wants to know how these bandits are caused, Your Majesty personally gave you a secret decree, so that you can observe it in secret, and you can secretly go up at any time." As he spoke, he carefully took out a yellow silk from his sleeve and handed it to Shen Ao: "Don't underestimate this county lieutenant, Your Majesty's heart of love is to hope that you will go deep into the county border and sharpen it well, and it will only be a matter of time before you soar into the sky and travel thousands of miles in the future." ”

Shen Ao took the yellow silk, thinking in his heart, this is the secret purpose? Still secretly sparse? This emperor is asking him to be a second or five boys, to be a secret agent, right?

Shen Ao thought about it and immediately understood that what Zhao Ji was thinking about was not the bandits, but wanted to know why this bandit came about, to ask himself to observe the people's feelings, and if there was anything to go directly to the province, there was no need to go through Zhongshu Province. After thinking about it in his heart, he felt quite funny, as far as he knew, the Great Song Dynasty didn't seem to have a secret folding system, and he didn't expect that such a thing would be, but he accidentally created the beginning of the secret system.

The old man also seemed to know the great usefulness of Shen Ao's privilege, so he said with a straight face: "You must remember that this is Your Majesty's trust in you, and you must not abuse it." ”

Shen Ao should be under the order, put away the secret decree, and the old man said: "Renhe County is one of the counties under the jurisdiction of Hangzhou, adjacent to Hangzhou Mansion, the county order is called Zheng Li, he is an honest man, and half of my protégé, I have written to him, asking him to take more care of you, but that daylight, you have to be careful, this person is the best at flattery, and he is Cai Jing's person, you can't be wrong to guard against some." ”

Shen Ao nodded, glanced at this official Shangshu, and thought to himself, why did he remind himself of this? Isn't it to show his heart and announce it to Yang Jian, Wei Jungong, and the country? Shen Ao has long been an adult, and he has long been disbelieving in integrity and purity, and people are mixed to the point of Shangshu, which one is not an old fox? Every word he says has a deep meaning!

The old man smiled: "I forgot to tell Master Shen, my name is Yang, you go back and ask your teacher Chen Ji, do you remember my old friend?" ”

Shen Ao nodded, thinking to himself, could it be that this Yang Shi has something to do with Chen Ji? glanced at Yang Shi again, and said goodbye with a secret decree. After thinking about it, it was sunny again, Cai Jing was in charge, and at that time, there were party henchmen in the court, but Yang Shi was a smart person, and his cleverness lay in showing his position and not being in the same stream as Cai Jing.

It must be known that the Ministry of Officials is in charge of the promotion and promotion of officials in the world, as the emperor, although Cai Jing is a very popular minister, but from the bottom of his heart, he never wants Cai Jing to completely master the Ministry of Officials, otherwise wouldn't he want to teach Cai Jing to be the second Cao Ying? If Yang Shi and Cai Jing wear a pair of pants, this is his real end, he can dominate the ministry for so many years, he must have his own knack for being an official.

When he got out of the Yatang of the Ministry of Officials, he saw that Cheng Hui had not left yet, Wu Bi rushed over first, and said: "Shen Ao, in a few days, you and I will have to go our separate ways, hey, take care of your brother." ”

Shen Ao hugged his hands: "In a few years, you and I will meet in the DPRK and China." ”

Wu nodded and invited Xu Weixiang: "I don't know when Brother Xu will go to work, why don't you and I go together?" ”

Xu Wei thought for a while, nodded and said, "When Brother Wu leaves, just notify me." ”

Cheng Hui also approached Shen Ao and said, "Brother Shen, Renhe County and Qiantang County are in Hangzhou, can you and I go together?" ”

Shen Ao naturally agreed, and Na Qing also came over with a smile and said, "How can the two brothers forget me?" Shen Ao, in the future, you and I will work in the same county office, hehe, we will take care of each other in the future. ”

Shen Ao pouted at him and didn't pay attention to him, hum! It's okay to tie up Cai Jing, but to be Cai Jing's great-great-grandson, such a shameless person, Shen Ao is too lazy to pay attention!

Seeing Shen Ao's cold attitude, Dayqing just smiled embarrassedly, and turned to Cheng Hui: "Brother Cheng has been appointed as the lieutenant of Qiantang County, congratulations, tsk, I think that my great-grandfather was the top student in high school in one fell swoop, and the first person to go to the post was also the lieutenant of Qiantang County, Brother Cheng and my great-grandfather are really fated, you and I must be closer to each other." ”

A trace of disdain flashed in Cheng Hui's eyes, and he said: "Brother Day, this brother raises love, Cheng Hui doesn't dare to take these two words, goodbye." ”

Cheng Hui said that, he left with Xu Wei first, Shen Ao invited Wu Bi to go with him, leaving only the blue face of the day green, day green snorted at their backs, and said, "Hmph, don't be ashamed of your face!" When my great-grandfather recovers, you will be good-looking. ”

Shen Ao and Wu Bi said some goodbye along the way, and Wu Bi suddenly said: "Brother Shen, I have never seen Cheng Hui angry, but he didn't give Sun Qing a good face at all!" ”

Shen Ao smiled and said, "Think about it, that daylight called Cai Jing his grandfather, and also called Cheng Hui his younger brother, does Cheng Hui dare to be this generation?" Don't look at Cheng Hui, who is usually kind, and he smiles when he sees people, but in fact, he is more proud than anyone else, don't talk about him, when are you leaving, call someone to tell me, and I will send you. ”

Wu Bi said with a smile: "Maybe Brother Shen will make the trip before me, and I will send you off then." ”
