Jia Lian was immediately given confidence by his cousin, and put down the dim sum in his hand as he spoke, a serious way.

"It's such an uncle, this time I went to the yamen, but I also recognized the door, but this Honglu Temple..."

Before Jia Lian finished speaking, Zhang Erhe felt that this kid was instigated by Sun Zhenzhen, and he might not necessarily say anything; This Jia Lian is not a face-saving person, what if he really wants to make any unreasonable requests?

After all, there are outsiders here, and it is really inappropriate to talk about some internal promotions in front of outsiders. It's not that you can't do it for Jia Lian, it's just that you have to carry someone behind your back.

Thinking of this, Zhang Erhe hurriedly raised the tea bowl and said.

"Oh? You're well-behaved! On the first day of debriefing, I thought you would play for a few days before you could go to the point; But I don't want you to be so active as an official! What do you think? How is Lord Xu of Honglu Temple? ”

Jia Lian glanced at his uncle, who was really out of tune; The officials are not active, and there is a problem with their thinking. Serving the people can not be delayed for such a big thing.

Again, what do you mean by coming up and talking to me about Honglu Siqing? If you know each other well, then this thing is not easy to do.

"Hmmm! I haven't seen Lord Xu yet! ”

Jia Lian didn't know what the relationship between his uncle and the newly appointed big boss of Honglu Temple was, but this Lord Xu obviously didn't welcome him in Honglu Temple, so he hesitated for a moment, thinking about his question about standing in line and how to answer his uncle.

After all, it was himself and not his uncle who wanted to go to work in Honglu Temple, and he couldn't unconditionally stand on his uncle's side just because his uncle found a job for him.

Because this is like a person's self-aware problem of drinking water, whether it is uncomfortable or not is all their own.

I really should weigh how to answer my uncle's question; Not only to let my uncle understand his situation in Honglu Temple, but also to show his heart that he has not yet been in the same stream as Lord Xu.

But he didn't want to, seeing Jia Lian so hesitant, his uncle was anxious. I don't look like a guy who has been in the officialdom for many years, and he is at ease, and he is like an old and obedient bull.

Unexpectedly, because of Jia Lian's momentary hesitation, he lost his temper, this is abnormal, very abnormal!

Uncle is a prudent and self-respecting person.

You must know that all officials have something called official authority, which is very capable of manipulating people and makes people feel unfathomable, but it does not represent the real ability of this official. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many officials who said the wrong thing at a critical moment and acted like a fool.

This thing is a matter of temperament, and those who have a heart can learn it, as long as they lower their voices, speak more slowly, and not express themselves easily, but they are full of confidence.

One of the hardest, and easiest, is self-confidence.

For ordinary people, this is too difficult to cultivate, because the south wall seems to be prepared for ordinary people, and under the south wall, as far as the eye can see, there are all ordinary people's corpses.

But for officials, cultivating self-confidence is too simple;

I don't believe in civil servants who go to a small place to take the exam; county-level cities and prefecture-level cities; It's best to go to the tax authorities, and then go to the famous local enterprises with that skin on your head.

Then you will find that money is worthless in the face of power. The intersecting appearance of the unstoppable local tyrant family's close to people kneeling and licking makes people can't float.

Whoever puts this situation on him, self-confidence is also raised.

And with a little bit of men's self-confidence, the confidence not to panic is there.

Therefore, Jia Lian didn't understand why he didn't say anything, why his uncle, who had been in the officialdom for many years, reacted so much. So he replied cautiously.

"It's not .....?"

Jia Lian pondered for a while, wanting his uncle to express his opinion first, so that he could understand his situation.

Uncle Xu seems to value this Lord Xu above Jia Lian's nephew; I didn't care if there were outsiders or not, so I asked hurriedly.

"Did he encounter any difficulties that you could trouble him?"

This he naturally refers to Lord Xu.

Zhang Erhe was worried about people, forgetting that Jia Lian had just said that he hadn't seen this person today, and if Jia Lian hadn't been for the wrong age of this adult at the moment, he would have doubted whether this guy was his uncle's illegitimate son.

It's still the kind that his uncle Bai Yueguang gave birth to him.

was so frightened that Jia Lian's head shook like a rattle.

"No, no, no, I haven't even seen Master Xu, so how can I embarrass him!"

Busy dissociating himself from relationships.

However, obedient and listening, especially subconscious words, can best reflect the situation, Zhang Erhe is just anxious for some reason, not that his IQ is gone.

Jia Lian's words only denied that he had embarrassed Lord Xu, but it was tantamount to admitting in disguise that Lord Xu's situation in Honglu Temple was very bad.

This made Zhang Erhe groan.

"Hmm~"

For a moment, the husband's hall fell silent.

Niu Jiazhi's eyes turned back and forth between Jia Lian and Zhang Erhe, full of envy.

Look, this is called the gate valve family, what are Jia Lian and they discussing? Those are all major events involving the power struggle within the yamen, and if you look at your own home, what are you discussing every day?

Either the lord of the big house stole the maid of the second lady, or the aunt sent two or two cases of money from the concubine, and none of them went to the table.

Jia Lian also looked at Zhang Erhe cautiously; This uncle, why is he anxious without a few words; What a big deal, as for making him not calm?

There is something to say, putting on such an incomprehensible look, why in the end?

And Sun Zhenzhen's eyes were joking; The banter made Zhang Erhe almost unable to sink.

Others don't know what's going on, but he knows.

It is said that the emperor has no shortage of helpers, which is true but also wrong, helpers and good helpers are two different things. There are not many people who want to work for the emperor and can meet the emperor, get the emperor's approval and then go to work hard.

Especially now this emperor, who is an emperor with a personal seal, has very limited rights at hand, and once the emperor's rights are limited, the people he contacts will be limited, and the help he will get is even more limited.

There are two things to know here, the first is talent, he is not scarce, especially officialdom-type talents, which are not top figures.

If you don't believe it, look at the group of people in the Han Gaozu back then, they were basically from a township, and if you understand this, you can understand that those who can be the top people in a township are capable ministers of governing the country.

The second is the gate valve, the study valve, the family knows that talents are not scarce, so their way to empty the imperial power is to let the imperial power contact people as little as possible, and even make the people who work for the imperial power become a consensus that is devalued by society.

For example, this is how the word "minister" came from.
