Chapter 125: The Demon Monk Gets His Wish
It just so happened that Zong Xi and Lai Fu had another excerpt to recommend Dao Yan to serve in the Sanglu Division.
Lao Zhu's heart moved, and he told Zong Xi about today's "treasure hunting and picking people".
He sighed: "The master is also the master of this rebel, but he gave us an idea to see how to screw him over." ”
Zong Xi Huigen was clear, so he naturally immediately understood Zhu Bai's intentions, and comforted Lao Zhu with a smile: "Don't worry about the emperor, His Royal Highness the King of Xiang is still young, and it is normal for people to be obsessed with skins." Not to mention a child, even if it is an adult, it is inevitable. ”
Lao Zhu: "This rebel is usually smart and clever, why is he confused about this matter?" ”
Zong Xi: "The emperor is wise and accessible, and respects virtue and admiration." The King of Xiang is familiar with it, and it will naturally change slowly. ”
To put it bluntly, let Lao Zhu lead by example. Don't look at your face first.
Lao Zhu glanced at the recital on the table that recommended Dao Yan, and asked, "Is Dao Yan really talented?" ”
Zong Xi: "It is indeed talented, otherwise the poor monk would not dare to recommend it to the emperor again and again." ”
Lao Zhu muttered: "In this way, I will first include him in the Sangha Division." How to use it, let us think again. ”
Zong Xi hurriedly saluted: "The emperor is sage." ”
Lao Zhu coughed dryly: "Let's call someone to call that rebel son immediately." You must tell him that we used Daoyan. ”
Lai Fu and Zong Xi hurriedly saluted: "Got it." The poor monks will definitely persuade the king of Xiang. ”
Zhu Bai was fishing by the lake and was invited by Erhu.
He pretended not to know what was going on, and saluted Zong Xi and Lai Fu: "Ah, the two masters, what is the important matter, they actually entered the palace together." ”
Zong Xi had a headache when he saw him holding a fishing rod in his hand, and he couldn't wait to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, so he hurriedly said, "His Royal Highness the King of Xiang." The poor monk came to recommend Master Daoyan to the emperor. ”
Zhu Bai immediately waved his hand: "Master, don't waste your efforts, that monk is too ugly, my father won't use it." ”
Hurriedly patted Lao Zhu's fart: "His Royal Highness misunderstood the emperor." The emperor has always paid attention to virtue and ability, not by appearance. He had already granted Dao Yan the monk's robe, but he was just testing Dao Yan so that he could be given a suitable position. ”
Zhu Bai tilted his head and asked Lao Zhu: "Father, is it really?" ”
Lao Zhu: "That's nature, and we're not the kind of superficial people." ”
Zhu Bai asked, "Where does the father plan to arrange Dao Yan to go?" ”
Lao Zhu: "We haven't thought about it yet." ”
It definitely won't work in the imperial court. Seeing Dao Yan every day, it's too uncomfortable.
Zhu Bai immediately said: "Father arranged the ugly monk as far away as possible. Ah, by the way, my fourth brother is not assisted by a monk. Then he followed my fourth brother to Zhongdu, and by the way, let my fourth brother test him. If it is useful, the fourth brother will take him to Beiping in the future, and we will be out of sight and out of mind. ”
Old Zhu secretly rejoiced: Hey. This is good, this is good.
We can get the reputation of meritocracy, and we don't have to face that ugly face every day, it's really the best of both worlds.
He said to Zong Xi seriously: "In this way, according to what King Xiang said." Send him to serve King Yan around. Leave now, without delay. ”
Zhu Bai almost died of laughter: "Yes, set off immediately, without delay." That monk was so ugly. ”
Zong Xi and Lai Fu hurriedly responded to the arrangement.
Then Lao Zhu copied his hand and asked Zhu Bai: "Look, employing people should be about ability, not just looks." The people of the Midtown Terracotta Division, which one are you going to choose? ”
Zhu Bai grinned: "The Terracotta Division used the blue team picked out by my father, and the red team I picked out went to Yaxing to entertain guests." Rich people like to be handsome. You don't have to be too brainy, you just need to speak well. ”
Lao Zhu suddenly realized that he had been fooled: even if this kid couldn't win at the beginning, he planned to use capable people.
What kind of "treasure hunt competition" is this, just to ask us to help him pick people.
The five hundred taels of silver lost to us are hard work.
-----
Dao Yan received the appointment, quickly stepped up, and finally caught up with Zhu Di before arriving in Fengyang City.
Zhu Di pretended to be surprised: "Eh, why is the master here?" ”
He knew that Dao Yan would definitely come, and what Zhu Bai wanted to do was not in vain, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
Dao Yan prostrate on the ground, held Lao Zhu's appointment letter above his head, and cried silently: "King Yan, please take in the poor monk." In order to serve His Highness, the poor monk really tried his best. ”
Zhu Di suppressed the excitement in his heart, took the letter of appointment, and helped Dao Yan up: "This king is young, and he will have to rely on the master's guidance more in the future." ”
Dao Yan: "The ministers should be the liver and brains and follow the king of Yan." ”
At night, Zhu Di had a long talk with Dao Yan.
Zhu Di asked: "How can I go to Yandi as soon as possible." ”
Dao Yan said: "King Yan is not worried, according to the observation of the poor monk, King Xiang is more eager than King Yan to let King Yan become a vassal. So, we just have to wait and see what happens. ”
Zhu Di frowned: "Impossible." Zhu Bai repeatedly opposed the crown. ”
Dao Yan: "King Xiang just doesn't want to be a vassal himself, but he doesn't object to his brothers becoming a vassal himself." Did he tell His Highness that he would come to Beiping to join King Yan in the future? ”
Zhu Di: "Yes." ”
Dao Yan smiled slightly: "That's it." ”
He couldn't tell Zhu Di that Zhu Bai had done the matter of entering the monks' records.
A person who intends to join the battle for the yellow position will only try his best to climb up at the moment.
Zhu Bai had no intention of joining the battle at all, so he was so active in finding a way out.
This is also the reason why he did not choose Zhu Bai from the beginning.
-----
After Zhu Bai's rectification, everyone in the Terracotta Division was in danger.
Zhu Bai directly promoted the officials and wardens of the former Zhongcheng Terracotta Division to be the deputy commander, and also raised the salaries of the original people of the five Terracotta Divisions by one level.
Isn't this a typical slap and then a date?
As a result, everyone loved and hated Zhu Bai. How dare you slack off.
Every day, after Zhu Bai went to inspect the Guanya Bureau and Yinzhuang, he came to the Midtown Soldiers and Horses Division to sit.
Then the five soldiers and horses were all in command, and they would come one by one and tell Zhu Bai about the big and small things that happened in the twelve hours and the results of the disposition.
Zhu Bai just lowered his head and played with his nine consecutive rings.
The people outside laughed at the Terracotta Division: once he was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, he really took a little doll carved in pink as his boss.
The commanders were very afraid of Zhu Bai, and they didn't care about these ridicules, so they just reported seriously and never dared to slack off.
Today, the commander of Cen Du in Dongcheng reported to Zhu Baiyu that the cherries on the wall of Li Shanchang's house were ripe and fell to the ground, sticky and difficult to clean, and attracted a lot of snakes, insects, rats and ants.
Zhu Bai looked up suddenly: "Hey, there are cherries?" ”
The commanders were secretly glad that he was really listening, but fortunately he was not perfunctory.
Commander Cen Du replied: "Yes." A tree full of cherries. ”
Zhu Bai's eyes widened and asked, "Is it sweet?" ”
The commanders secretly covered their eyes: sure enough, he was still a child. Listening is listening, but the point is not quite right.
Commander Cen Du hesitated for a moment and replied, "It should be sweet." I see a lot of birds going to eat. ”
