Unexpectedly, a group of self-healing gentlemen did not help, and finally let the traitor Cai Jing solve his worries.

I have to say that at any time, it is far easier to deal with villains than with gentlemen. The main thing is that as long as the villain talks about interests with him, he can cooperate happily.

The gentleman is in trouble, not to mention being gentle and frugal, but also testing people's character.

Li Kui even pondered in private, what if his teacher was Cai Jing or Cai Bian?

I want to ask Cai Jing to do something, send a thousand guan, it's not enough, add another thousand guan, as long as it's not murder and arson, it's done properly. Even if it is murder and arson, he can figure out a morally defensible reason to come out and fight for an acquittal. Don't be too little, two thousand guan is already a lot, Cai Jing has no chance to make money now, I am afraid that there are countless means. Especially in the position of the head of the household, Zhang Dian is a master who does not rub sand in his eyes, if Cai Jing is really full of private pockets, he is discovered by Zhang Tun. As far as Zhangdun is ruthless, he can do it all on Salmon Island.

Cai Jing has always been interested in making money. When I was doing Zhizhou in Yangzhou, I wrote a business of writing plaques with big characters, and a pair of words was sold for twenty or thirty times. But this kind of business can't be done every day, and there is a Chao Buzhi on the side who doesn't like him. What's even worse is that Cai Jing is a person who is not willing to be lonely, and it costs a lot of money to give gifts and treats.

His father did not leave him and his brother Cai Bian a family fortune. If it weren't for the two brothers Cai Jing and Cai Bian who were admitted to the Jinshi, whether the people of the Cai clan in Fujian would accept them both. Not to mention having a relationship with Cai Cheng. Cai Qu was already an important minister of the imperial court at that time, how could he look at a businessman, or the son of a small businessman, differently and regard him as a nephew?

Chengdu is even worse, there are too many Wenchen from Chengdu, and the Fan family is in Chengdu Mansion. If he really gets a copy of Yushitai, it will be enough for him to eat a pot.

Cai Jing was also quite surprised to receive Li Kui's benefits, but he didn't expect that the most unpleasant kid would rush to send him money. Can he still push it out? As for Liu Yannian, it was not within his consideration at all. How could he let the war horse pass through Liu Yannian's hands, in that case, he would be able to fall into the favor? Only when the war horse falls in the yamen of the Xuanfu Division can he call the shots, and it is the resource that can really belong to him. The goose has plucked its feathers, such a large amount of wealth, can he watch it slip away?

If there is really no way at all, wouldn't he be a household secretary in vain?

I have to say that Cai Jing has a good impression of Li Kui.

Looking at Su Zhe again, Li Kui and Li Yun went to visit with gifts, but they ate behind closed doors and were almost driven out by the servants of Su Mansion. If he had sent a gift to Cai Jing's mansion, Cai Jing would have to go to the door to greet him in person when he saw the gift list, and at the very least, he would have to let Cai You respectfully invite him into the door, this is the difference.

I have to say that Li Kui has a very good impression of Cai Jing.

As for Cai Jing, he was thinking about how to turn Xuanfusi's war horse into an ordinary horse, and then redeem the money. He didn't dare to do it when he was in Yangzhou, and he didn't dare to do it when he was in Chengdu, because of how many pairs of eyes were staring at Yangzhou and Chengdu. Moreover, both places are relatively prosperous areas with a relatively prosperous literary style, and there are many families who are civil officials.

But Qin Fenglu?

Is there anyone else in this place who cares about him?

If he doesn't get any benefits, won't he suffer all this hardship in vain?

However, Qin Fenglu's grievances were over, and Li Kui and Hao Sui got up with their entourage and went to the capital.

On this day, I waited for the boat to cross the river at the Fengling ferry port of the Yellow River. Hao Sui was bored, while Li Kui was holding a pen in the notebook and drawing a sentence in the east and a sentence in the west, as if he was writing an article. But it didn't look like it, which attracted Hao Sui's attention.

"Renjie, what have you been thinking about along the way?"

Hao Sui took a freshly boiled teapot and sat opposite Li Kui.

Li Kui frowned and glanced at the notebook, and raised his head in annoyance: "I originally wanted to write the Ten Strategies of Pingxia, but I found that the strategies were not enough. I don't know how to water if I want to water, poor thing! ”

Hao Sui couldn't answer this, he didn't know anything about such a mysterious thing as strategy. Hao Sui's strength is that he has a lot of experience in observing words and feelings, and how to please people.

After all, in the palace, a slave who can't even flatter people and please his master will not live to become a eunuch one day.

Eunuchs are also officials, not slaves who fool people. In the palace, at least the eunuchs above the small yellow door can be called eunuchs. Hao Sui's strength is to play with the master, relieve the master's boredom, please the master, and please the little master. After all, the eunuchs who have just entered the palace, no one knows whether the master who will serve in the future will be an adult or a child.

But when it comes to how to deal with national affairs, Hao Sui really doesn't have this level.

The Great Song Dynasty is not like the Ming Dynasty, there is still an inner study hall in the inner house, and the eunuchs have the opportunity to study after entering the palace. The eunuchs of the Great Song Dynasty wanted to mix up and mix so that they could be independent, and they were basically talents who brought art into the palace. After entering the palace, you have to study hard.

For example, Tong Guan, this guy is familiar with military books, no matter how he learns it, it can be regarded as his ability.

But even if he is so studious, the level of eunuchs is definitely not as good as that of a scholar from a jinshi.

"My lord, the mutton soup has been cooked, can you enjoy it now?"

"It's already noon?"

Li Kui looked up, and what caught his eye was a smiling face that looked comfortable. This is the history of Li Kui's newly acquired book in Hanoi, called Li Yan. After reading books for a few years, I sent them to the door to give Li Kui as an entourage book history. After Li Kui was admitted to the school, he found that although this Li Yan was the son of a craftsman, he was thoughtful and enthusiastic, so that he could arouse it, just like the old man next to Li Kui. When his mind was loose, he accepted it and became a book historian, who was a personal secretary, and his main job was to help him sort out the correspondence and official documents. Gao Yu used to do this kind of thing under Su Shi's door.

Seeing Li Kui's intentions, the other party immediately understood, and hurriedly sent the steaming pot to the room, to Hao Sui's surprise, on this cold day, this Li Kui's newly collected book history also got very rare garlic leaves and coriander. Topped with hot soup, it's green and appetizing.

But Li Yan also apologized vigorously: "My lord, Father-in-law Hao, the villain heard that there is a big family in the city that is delicious, and he must have prepared rare ingredients for dragon cultivation in winter." It took a lot of tongue to finally let the other party give up some to the villain. It's a pity that the garlic leaves in winter look lovely, but they are not crisp enough, and the taste of coriander is very positive. ”

"I have a heart!" Li Kui picked up the wooden chopstick, indescribably comfortable.

The followers around him before were either the dead-eyed Ruan Xiaoer or the smug Ruda. Except for fighting, it doesn't look like I can help on weekdays, and I have the heart to find a book history from a poor family, but there is always no good opportunity.

Unexpectedly, when I came to Hanoi, there was a guy named Li Yan who volunteered to recommend himself.

It's easy to use.

While placing the tableware, Li Yan also explained to Li Kui: "Adults, villains follow adults, so they naturally have to cut off from the past. The villain pondered all night last night and finally found the crux of the problem. The name was not chosen well, so the villain made his own decision and changed his name to Li Bangyan, do adults think that they will make it habitual? ”

Li Kui was noncommittal, nodded and said, "Let Ruan Xiaoer accompany you to the county to change your name, as long as you think it's easy to use." As for the contract between you and me, it is set at four years, and after four years, the official recommends you to go to Taixue. ”

"Thank you, sir!"

Li Bangyan is very grateful, he has been a scholar all these years. It's a pity that the scholars in Hedong are quite unsmooth on the road to the imperial examination, and none of them can help. That's when I thought of trying my luck with the officials. Hearing the news of Li Kui's arrival in Hanoi, he immediately rushed to meet him in a hurry to explain his intentions. Don't want a monthly salary, give Li Kui three or five years for nothing, and ask Li Kui to recommend him to study at Ying Tianfu Academy.

But the problem is that Ying Tianfu Academy, Li Kui doesn't know anyone, so he simply takes one step and recommends him to go to Taixue, why not?

Anyway, whether it is to enter Taixue or Tianfu Academy, he needs an entrance exam, and if he can pass the exam, it can be regarded as the beauty of an adult. If you can't pass the test, I'm sorry, Li Kui has already done his best.

This was said in front of Li Yanming, and Li Yan naturally had no reason to refute it, so he immediately agreed.

It's just that just two days after receiving Li Bangyan, Li Kui found that this product is simply a copy of Gao Yu. The obsession with Keju is even more serious than Gao Yu. As for talent, there must be one, but Li Kui's contact time is too short, and he can't see too much. But it's enough to do book history, organize official documents, write unimportant letters properly, and the arithmetic is also good, and at the last time it is also a material for making a book.

Hao Sui took a bite of mutton soup and was surprised to find that there were still fans. The vermicelli made of mung beans is soft, and the vermicelli that has absorbed the soup melts in the mouth, and when you take a bite in winter, your body suddenly warms and relaxes.

Whew-

Hao Sui looked at Li Yan who was holding the ball in the yard, and now he should be called Li Bangyan, and said enviously: "This person is a talent." ”

Will eat!

Will play.

It's easy to use.

Anyway, Li Kui and Hao Sui couldn't find Li Bangyan's shortcomings. It's just that Ruan Xiaoer doesn't like him, especially when Ruan Xiaoer is practicing bare-chested, Li Bangyan is kicking the ball back and forth on the side, while kicking the ball, he looks at Ruan Xiaoer with pity eyes, and greets Ruan Xiaoer from time to time: "Brother Ruan, come and play!" ”

"Don't play."

"It's so boring to practice, come and play with me?"

"Stay away!"

Ruan Xiaoer is very tired of Li Bangyan, this guy is not only stammering Li Kui during the day, but even Hao Sui stammers. What's even more annoying is that Ruan Xiaoer himself feels that he is obviously very strong and very effective, why does Li Kui rely on Li Bangyan more?

It's only been a few days since this shipment arrived?

What makes him even more angry is that Li Bangyan plays whenever he has the opportunity during the day, but at night he reads at night, and his scheming is unfathomable.

As for why Ruan Xiaoer knows?

Because Ruan Xiaoer and Li Bangyan live in the same room, after all, they live in a post station, and now the Yellow River is frozen, but the ice has not been completely frozen, which is very dangerous and difficult to cross the river. There were many officials stranded at the post station, and Hao Sui and Li Kui's entourage could not stay, and some of them could only stay in the inn. I had to live together with a few people. And Ruan Xiaoer had a headache when he saw reading, especially when Li Bangyan was still holding the book in front of his eyes, and his hands were itching even more angrily.

Li Kui suddenly looked at Li Bangyan in the courtyard in a daze, as if he remembered something, and said secretly in his heart: "This guy seems to be a little familiar?" It seems that once Song Huizong had a prodigal son, the prime minister was called Li Bangyan, and he wouldn't come from his own disciples, right? ”
