Volume 1 Chapter 635 Li Xiyan, the secretary of the ministry
The anticlimactic Lord Zhong is surprisingly quick in his work.
Other people enter the capital to run for officials, and they want to see him, and they don't have money to open the way for more than ten days, so don't even think about it.
Oh, no, even if it is a jinshi in the same department as Xu He, those third- and fourth-class people want to get a good place, it is from the day the court test list is released, they have started to send things and handes notes to Lord Zhong's family.
Xu Hezhi can be so lucky, first, he does have an official position, and there is no need to give gifts; The second is that this person who has already gotten the words of Shangshu Li wants to ...... to this new champion To put it mildly.
Xu He felt the politeness from all departments of the ministry.
"Champion Lang!"
"Champion Gong!"
"Coming? Come in, my lord has asked you several times since the morning! ”
……
Xu He stepped into Li Xiyan's public office and saw him wearing a pair of tortoiseshell glasses reading papers.
After hearing the movement, Li Xiyan unexpectedly just nodded to Xu He and said, "Liang sonar, sit down first!" ”
"Yes, Lord Budo!"
Li Xiyan was still immersed in official business, but Xu He visited the office of this Tianguan Shangshu.
He is a native of Songjiang Huating, and in this era, he and Xu He are also half a fellow countryman.
However, Xu He heard that this township party, who was originally Shen Han, has been promoted by Shen Han.
After Shen Han left the imperial court, because he was appreciated by Qin Yan again, it is said that he has reached the point where he can enter and leave the inner garden of the Prime Minister's Mansion at will.
Xu He was uneasy in his heart, Shen Han's fellow townsman and Qin Yan's sworn friend, no matter how he said it, he couldn't pee in the same pot as himself, but he heard Menzi say that he inquired about himself several times, and the officials were very polite to him, obviously he was also the one who said hello.
Li Xiyan: This is ......
Just when Xu He was thinking nonsense, Li Xiyan shouted: "Come in with a basin of water, I want to wipe my face!" ”
There were officials from the Ministry of Officials outside the door, and it didn't take long for a basin of water to come in.
Li Xiyan said: "Put it on the shelf!" ”
When the officer heard this, he put the basin on the basin stand, and after giving the salute, he withdrew.
Seeing this, Xu He was a little puzzled, why did this person who was doing a good job suddenly wipe his face with water?
It's not that it's strange to wipe your face, but what's strange is that after you finish speaking, shouldn't you take advantage of the heat of the water to quickly wipe it to wake up?
And why did he ask the clerk to put it on the basin stand, and he continued to work?
Of course, some people say that he has changed his mind, can't he?
Yes......
Half of the incense passed, but Li Xiyan still didn't speak, holding a brush to approve and sign the paperwork.
At this time, he suddenly took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.
Seeing this, Xu He finally couldn't help but get up, wet the fine linen cloth on the shelf, then wring it out and walked to Li Xiyan's side and said, "Lord Ministry, wipe your face!" ”
Li Xiyan waved his hand and said, "Put it in the basin, no need!" ”
Xu He was a little annoyed when he heard this, and he was kind enough to twist a [towel] for you to wake you up, how can you say it, you should at least say thank you, right?
What is the rationale for this?
After a while, Li Xiyan was still in the office, and suddenly said outside: "Come on, pour a glass of water!" ”
Xu He is not a stingy person, people's age, qualifications, and official positions are all placed here, what happened to him as a newcomer in the workplace, wring a towel and being rejected?
He hurriedly got up, waved away the clerk who walked in and was about to pour water, and then took the iron kettle he took from the clerk, came to Li Xiyan's side in person, moved his tea cup to the small table, avoided the paperwork, and then poured the tea full!
When he put the teacup in front of Li Xiyan, he thought that Li Xiyan would always thank him this time, right?
Who knew that people didn't raise their heads, they waved their hands directly, go down!
Whoa!
This is to think of himself as a clerk who waits for tea outside.
Li Xiyan picked up the teacup, plucked the tea leaves, and then stared at the document and took a sip.
He was visibly stunned when he drank it in his mouth, but he quickly finished it, put down the teacup, and continued to read the paperwork.
Xu He picked up the iron kettle again, took the teacup and poured it full.
This time, Li Xiyan picked up the teacup and finally looked up at ......, but instead of looking at Xu He, he stared at the misty teacup.
He blew on the tea and took a sip.
Finally, he said to Xu He: "Liangsheng, why did you use warm water when you poured me tea for the first time?" ”
Xu He poured tea for the first time, left a small half of the herbal tea in the teacup, and handed it over after adding hot water.
Seeing Li Xiyan's question, Xu He arched his hand and said: "The tea is cold and hurts the spleen, the lord of the ministry is just thirsty, I am afraid that the adult will drink too quickly, but the spleen will be damaged, so I will serve warm water first!" ”
Li Xiyan nodded when he heard this, and then asked, "Then why did you pour hot water for the second time?" ”
"Adults have already drunk a cup of warm tea, drinking too much tea is too urgent to hurt the stomach, so change the hot tea, take a sip, calm the mind, and not hurt the body!"
Li Xiyan nodded when he heard this: "I have a heart!" ”
When Xu He heard this, he said, "! ”
I wasted my old nose and took out Ishida Mitsunari's trick to break the silence, and you replied to me with three words "have a heart"?
According to the script, you shouldn't praise me in a big way, bright voice, yours, big drop good!
No, nothing, he, he buried his head in the papers again.
I know you're busy, so don't let me come in to see if you're busy, okay?
I won't go out and brag to others and say: "Li Xiyan works hard, Li Xiyan is competing for excellence today!" ”
However, he studied for two years, read out his knowledge, and practiced his kung fu of sitting down.
Since you're not in a hurry to talk to me, then I'm not in a hurry.
Everybody's just consuming!
……
This is the whole hour after entering Li Xiyan's mansion.
Xu He had nothing to do, except for serving tea and water, he could only stare at a painting on the opposite wall on the chair in a daze.
The water will eventually return to the sea because of the good, and the mountains will become peaks without competing for height.
The payment is the original restoration of Huating.
The original is Li Xiyan's word, it turns out that this is the life creed of Li Xiyan, the secretary of the ministry?
The font used in this character is Wei Monument.
is clumsy and clever, obviously, Li Xiyan has worked the Wei monument.
The water will eventually return to the sea because of the good, and the mountains will become peaks without competing for height.
If you can really reach this state......
Xu He suddenly understood why Li Xiyan had been hanging him by his side.
He is testing Xu He, whether he can let go of his posture.
Thinking about this section, Xu He sat still again, looking at his nose and nose, and his nose and heart.
Li Xiyan is really dealing with official business, the recent war in the south, the frequent transfer of local officials, many of them are still feudal officials, all of which require him to consult with the cabinet to draw up a suitable candidate to report to the emperor.
But he really doesn't have time? Don't even have time to say a couple of words to Xu He?
Apparently not.
In fact, he is also silently observing this champion duke, the first person to take the six imperial examinations throughout the ages.
He squinted his eyes and saw Xu He sitting on the chair without the slightest irritation.
Combined with the scene where Xu He poured tea just now.
He sighed, looked up and said, "Did the Wenxuan Division tell you?" ”
