Chapter 14 Merit
If something happens several times in a row, then there must be something strange about it, wait for today, and if it appears for the third time tomorrow night, you might as well go and find out.
But after thinking about it, she finally decided to give up, curiosity is always the most harmful thing, and if you are not careful, it is easy to fall into the trap, rather than this, it is better to be safe and stable.
Thinking of this, she continued to immerse herself in the matter at hand, still writing stroke by stroke.
After five or six days of such a black-and-white life, she finally completed the task that she should have completed, and it was even better than she imagined, which was unanimously praised by everyone.
Because of the beautiful handwriting, this dossier became a new surviving copy, and was sent to Lord Zuo Shilang for review, he felt that the writing was very good, so he handed it over to Shangshu, because Shangshu was satisfied, so he added merit to Chengyun and increased some money.
Maybe it's because I heard others say that Chengyun is on duty every day, and this is all an active behavior, without anyone's request, Zuo Shilang also specially granted her a day off and let her go out to open her eyes.
But Chengyun still stayed here on the grounds that he had to continue to work hard, which undoubtedly made Zuo Shilang have a good impression of her, and by the way, he said a few kind words in front of Shangshu.
But now that Chengyun has been on the road, such a life where the sun and the moon are upside down is not good for her health after all, and she also figured out that no one would come to see her at night, so she changed to work during the day and rest at night, anyway, there are guards everywhere anyway.
Recently, the sacrificial ceremony is approaching, and all localities and the central government are in full swing to prepare, and all the ritual lists and processes need to be produced by the ceremonial department, so everyone is busy with this matter.
Faced with such the most important task of the year, many people complained again and again, but Chengyun felt that his spirit was much better than usual.
This is a rare opportunity to show your ability, and it is not good to pretend to be above others when you are new to the city, but at least you can improve your efficiency and let others see your ability.
Therefore, Xue Langzhong just said that she wanted to do the task, she couldn't even sleep, and it took two days to complete, and all the content not only met the requirements, but also the result of her figuring out the holy will, which seemed unconventional.
Everyone said that she had done a good job and wanted to report her merits, but she kept saying that all the credit belonged to the other three people, and she had just come here, and it was all up to others to take care of her.
Because of her background in a prestigious family, and because of what she did before, everyone didn't have any suspicions, let alone feel that she had any ambitions.
Because she completed the task ahead of schedule, the unfinished share of others was handed over to her, and she didn't say anything, just did it steadfastly, ensuring that every sentence was written accurately and in detail, and no one would find the problem.
At such a critical juncture, there are very few people who sneak away, but most of them are still mixed in and do not show real energy, but everyone knows that there are two people who work extra hard, almost twelve hours a day.
These two are the desperate Dalang in everyone's eyes, Su Wenlin, and the other is Ji Chengyun as the Erlang.
Some of the others have families, some have their own affairs, and they don't stay in the Ministry of Rites all the time, but these two people are the opposite, even if it is a day or night when everyone can rest, they will definitely stay until the end without complaints.
Being able to get the title of Desperate Erlang can be said to be a great encouragement for Chengyun. When I was at home in the past, my father used to tell him how powerless women were, and how they cheated and cheated, but she never believed it.
She was in a state of high exhaustion during the preparation period for the next half month, and she was only busy with the official business at hand every day.
Perhaps because he felt bored alone, Luo Huai also began to stay in the Ministry of Rites every day, and the other people saw that so many people were working so hard and taking root here, and for a while, every night in the Ministry of Rites was brightly lit.
However, there will always be a reward for the effort, and this matter is required to be completed within a month, but the efficiency of the Ministry of Rites is rare to be higher, and it has won a lot of rewards.
Although the Ministry of Rites is among the six ministries, it has always been excluded, not only because of the situation of civil officials, but also because the atmosphere of the Ministry of Rites has always been very loose, so its own efficiency has not been high. But now that everyone is working so hard, things are naturally better.
After receiving the reward of the saint, Shangshu was naturally in a good mood, and praised the people below.
Xue Langzhong knew that the holy favor that everyone received this time had an inseparable relationship with his subordinates, so he gathered all three of them together and invited everyone to drink and talk together.
Wailang is a freak and doesn't like to socialize with people, and Su and Chengyun are busy with official business all day long, so naturally they don't have time to take a break.
But after all, I haven't gotten together for so long, and the four of us finally found a restaurant and sat down to drink together.
Xue Langzhong is really a very gentle person, and he is not good at drinking, but on such a celebratory occasion, he is embarrassed to be out of place with everyone, so he symbolically raised his glass and invited everyone to drink together.
Shu Yuanwailang has never liked to give face to others, he likes to have a few drinks on weekdays, but he never drinks on such occasions, the reason is very simple, he hates the pretentious atmosphere in the officialdom nowadays, and he doesn't like superficial articles such as drinking.
So taking advantage of this opportunity, he began to teach the other three people a lesson: "There are so many ways to go, what is the point of taking this one, to do such filthy things, groveling and condescending to others?" I still thought you were a clear stream, but I didn't expect it to be extremely dirty! ”
Now Qingliu is crowded out by everyone in the imperial court, but this person still dares to talk about it like this, which is really bold.
Chengyun naturally didn't have the courage to oppose him, let alone the imperial court, so he just laughed with him. Director Su looked like he didn't care about himself, just drank cup after cup, and there was still a mocking look in his eyes.
Xue Chengxi saw that the atmosphere was particularly embarrassing today, so he hurriedly changed the topic: "It's really embarrassing to ask everyone to come out today, so that everyone can't accompany their families." ”
