Chapter 24: Pick one
Half an hour later, Xiao Rui was taken into the small study room of the Taiji Palace.
"You're the miracle doctor who conquered smallpox?" Li Er buried his head in reviewing the folds, but he didn't raise his head.
I, you......
Xiao Rui secretly scolded the end, how could he be sold by a group of guys from the hospital? When you come to the palace, the last thing you want to meet is the emperor, but now it's good to throw yourself into the net.
Looking at Xiao Rui's face full of surprise and astonishment, Li Er was very satisfied with this expression, put down Zhu Pi, and asked with a smile, "What?" Do you still recognize me? ”
"Ahem, I haven't been to the palace, I don't know the rules, should I knock one?"
Burst...... Now it's Li Er's turn to lose his temper, this kid is so bold, I never guessed what he would do.
"Do you want to kneel?"
Xiao Rui shook his head, "I don't want to, I don't like kneeling, my knees are too soft and spineless." ”
"Oh? No wonder Song Guogong is in a hurry to find a teacher for you, someone really has to teach you etiquette. So, you're pretty backbone? Don't parents and teachers kneel either? Li Er said with great interest.
Xiao Rui scratched his head and said that you are not raising the bar, who doesn't kneel to your parents?
"You have a marriage contract with Xiangcheng, what do you want to call me after you get married in the future?" Li Er asked.
"Of course, it's called you...... Father! ”
Yes, Xiao Rui was speechless, lifted his robe and knocked it neatly.
Li Er laughed, "You stubborn boy, I heard that your father has a headache, and he is about to start a family, so it's time to take care of it." can't be too unscrupulous, it will make others laugh at Song Guogong for not having a tutor. What is your ability to fish in a small mountain village? Playthings are demoralized. Give you an official position, come out and do something. ”
"Huh? I don't like to be an official! Xiao Rui immediately refused.
"What? Have you been wronged as an official? Do you want to fly eagles and dogs for the rest of your life and be a gentleman? Li Er reprimanded.
Xiao Rui explained: "It's not that I don't want to contribute to the country. But I can't stand the intrigue and intrigue in the officialdom. ”
"Who told you that there is intrigue and intrigue in the officialdom? Your father is the prime minister, didn't he teach you? At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived, everyone is working in a solid position, how can there be so many intrigues? ”
This one......
Xiao Rui was speechless, it is true that no one has taught me, but the officialdom is unchanged.
"Where there are people, there is fighting, I am born with a bad temper, if I come out to be an official, I am afraid that I will offend the people of Chang'an City, you should spare me."
Li Er laughed and said: "You kid is crazy, no one has dared to speak arrogantly, saying that you dare to offend the officials of Chang'an, you are the first." It's time to send you to the Imperial Observatory. Don't worry, as long as you are reasonable, I am your backstage, and no one dares to bully you. ”
"Is it okay not to be an official?" Xiao Rui still has to make a final struggle.
"Okay, you kid is a good hand at making money, and now that the treasury is empty, help the treasury earn 100,000 taels of silver, and you will be allowed to be free. Choose one of the two, choose yourself. Li Er completely mastered it.
Xiao Rui said with a bitter face: "Make money? Not long ago, a batch of my goods was robbed, and the Liang divisions in the north cut off the trade routes, and they couldn't make money if they wanted to, so why don't you send troops to clean him up? ”
"Hahahaha, what do you think you are doing when you ask you for 100,000 taels? 100,000 taels of military expenses is just enough to clean up the Liang division. ”
I'm ......
"Is it okay to serve in the hospital?"
"No! Yushitai serves Yushi, from Liupin, under Wei Zheng, let's go to work tomorrow. Li Er made up his mind to sharpen this lazy son-in-law.
"Master Ma, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, no one has been able to do it at the age of seventeen, Your Majesty's grace to you is unprecedented, you must not live up to Your Majesty's love." The waiter Lao Gao opened his mouth to advise.
Xiao Rui glanced at him: "From the sixth grade? What a big official position, why don't you come? ”
I'm ...... The waiter almost vomited blood, and said in his heart that I am kind-hearted, are you a tiger? What are you doing at me?
Li Er waved his hand and said, "It's okay to go down and prepare." By the way, you send the horse out of the palace, tell him about the common etiquette on the way, and you will go to work tomorrow, don't make people laugh. ”
The implication is that in the past, others laughed at each other, but only laughed at Song Guogong Xiao Yu, but now it is different, you are my son-in-law, and you will laugh at me as a father-in-law.
Out of the Tai Chi Palace, Xiao Rui looked at the gushing inner servant Lao Gao, and asked jokingly: "You won't declare your personal vendetta and deliberately fix me, right?" ”
I...... The slave and the maid don't dare, the slave and the maid have no personal enmity with the concubine, only admiration.
Xiao Rui laughed, patted Lao Gao's shoulder and praised: "It is said that the prime minister can support the boat in his belly, no wonder everyone calls you the prime minister behind their backs." ”
"Hey, Master Pony, I haven't finished talking yet......"
"No need, I don't know how to be polite and bump into the official, or I will be impeached and removed from office in three days, don't bother." Xiao Ruiyang walked away, Lao Gao was dumbfounded, this, this...... You don't want to be an official, why didn't you say it just now? Isn't this deliberately tricking me?
With an innocent face on his face, Li Er laughed: "I knew that this stubborn donkey would not be so well-behaved to obey the call, go and send a letter to Wei Zheng, train this kid well, and don't allow him to resign no matter what." ”
Xiao Rui, who returned to the Song State Mansion, couldn't stop complaining, but the old lady Mrs. Xiao was overjoyed, my son didn't make a sound, a blockbuster, just entered the court as an official is a six-grade real job, full of Chang'an's powerful children, this is the first one.
The imperial court sent official uniforms, Mrs. Xiao was busy with preparations, and Xiao Yu called her son to the study and told him to be an official one by one.
Watching Xiao Rui leave after listening to it with low eyebrows, Xiao Yu stroked his beard with satisfaction and smiled: "Starting a family and starting a business, it's really good, Rui'er has grown up in the end." ”
Grow? Silence is the biggest struggle, and this kid is holding back his badness.
At six o'clock in the morning, the Yamen of the Imperial History Observatory began to point out, and the Imperial History Doctor Wei Zheng subordinate two Imperial History Zhongcheng of the Fifth Grade, and then set up six servants from the Sixth Grade, in charge of different functions.
"Xiao Rui, Xiao Rui, the palace attendant, Xiao Rui ......" The person who ordered the Mao read it several times in a row, but no one responded.
At this moment, the snoring in the corner gradually started, and everyone turned their heads to look, a young man in a six-rank yellow official robe, sitting on the Hu bed, leaning back and sleeping.
How can that be? Yushitai ordered it, and dared to sleep soundly in the hall? Who is so rebellious? Bang me out! The imperial historian on duty scolded him.
Someone whispered, "I don't know, it seems to be new." ”
"New here? Isn't it him? He is the hand-picked by His Majesty, the new horse servant Shi Xiao Rui? Song Guogong's eldest son? ”
"Humph! Song Guogong is a dignified minister, how can there be such a stubborn heir? ”
At this time, Wei Zheng, the imperial historian, spoke, "Everyone, go on. Young people are playful, unlike us who are used to getting up early, he comes on the first day, and allows him once. ”
Well? What??? Dr. Wei personally helped him speak? How is this possible? In the past, Dr. Wei was known for his strictness, and he would never allow anyone in the Yushi Observatory to eat dry food and not do anything, what happened today? Could it be that Dr. Wei can't afford to provoke a colt?
"Dian Mao's voice is quieter, don't quarrel with Xiao Yushi."
What??? Dr. Wei, what's wrong with you today? Why so indulge a newcomer?
Wei Zheng snorted, comforted his subordinates and said, a child, everyone take him slowly, don't be like a child.
Until the third pole of the sun, when lunch was served, Xiao Rui was woken up by Wei Zheng, "Xiao Yushi, wake up, when it's time for lunch, I'll take you to the cafeteria to eat." ”
"Oh...... Got off work so soon? Xiao Rui stretched his long waist and got up to leave, but was pulled by Wei Zheng. It's early, and there's still half a day in the afternoon.
