Yang Rong's words did not make Xia Yuanji feel complacent, but Xia Yuanji listened to it in his ears, smiled bitterly and shook his head,

Yang Rong is also a ghost who can see the height of his eyebrows, and seeing that Lord Xia doesn't seem to want to talk more about this topic, he changed the conversation and said in fear,

"Lord Xia, it's really dangerous to be in the court today."

Xia Yuanji glanced at Yang Rong, Yang Rong realized his gaffe, he couldn't talk about his father in private, not to mention that he was still in a palace full of ears and eyes.

Coupled with the shallowness of love, Yang Rong and Xia Yuanji have not yet reached such a good relationship, so they come and go to talk about this kind of topic.

It can be said that Yang Rong is the raw melon and egg in the court, and he made three mistakes in just one sentence.

Yang Rong's face suddenly turned pale, showing a terrifying color,

"Do you know why you feel at risk?"

Xia Yuanji did not interrupt this sensitive topic, but continued to speak,

Yang Rong's throat trembled, and he couldn't make any sound.

Xia Yuanji deliberately fell half a step behind, the two side by side, Xia Yuanji said in a low voice,

"It's okay, I'll have to pay more attention next time."

Yang Rongru was amnestied, and said in a trembling voice, "Thank you, Lord Xia!" Thank you, Natsu-sama! ”

"Let me ask you, why do you feel dangerous in the court?"

If Yang Rong hadn't been supported by Xia Yuanji in the lower back, his legs would have been paralyzed to the ground by now.

However, after Yang Rong heard Xia Yuanji's question, he still thought about it repeatedly,

"Xiaguan... Xia Guan thought that what Lord Xia said, Hong Wuye didn't like. ”

Xia Yuanji frowned, and said,

"But I don't feel the slightest danger, do you know why?"

Yang Rong came back to his senses, and finally reacted that Lord Xia was going to teach himself the way of being an official.

Although he didn't understand why Lord Xia took such care of himself, he still made a gesture of deferential listening and replied,

"The lower officials are stupid."

"Because the purpose of my advice has never been to make Your Majesty happy."

Xia Yuanji's words, like the Honglu bell, exploded in Yang Rong's ears, and Yang Rong's heart was pounding in his chest,

Xia Yuanji walked around to Yang Rong, put his hand on Yang Rong's shoulder, and said earnestly,

"Doing what is a song is not the right way after all. Being an official in the court is for the sake of the people of the world.

There are all kinds of changes in the court, and the fact that I have been a household servant for several years is even more proof of this.

As long as you are consistent and do everything well, there will be a place for you in this court.

You're still young, don't rush, take your time is the fastest. ”

With that, Xia Yuanji turned around and left,

Yang Rong's mood is like a big river, and he can't calm down for a long time.

Stunned in place, after digesting it for a long time, I realized that Lord Xia had already left,

Yang Rong threw his hands in his whole clothes and slammed to the ground in the direction where Xia Yuanji left.

........

Ji'an Province

"Lord Futai."

Yang Rong's father, Yang Shangxian, the master of Ji'an Mansion, stood outside the yamen,

Dong An, the old man of Futai, raised his head from the folds of the book, and after seeing the master, he was overjoyed and said,

"Shang Xian! It's finally here, hurry up, help me see this. ”

Yang Shangxian nodded, strode closer, took the book fold from the master of Futai, just glanced at it, and said,

"My lord, this must be the Liu family's method of defrauding the yamen subsidy."

"Huh?" The old man of Futai was shocked when he heard this, and looked over with a wink, "The Liu family dares to deceive this official?" ”

Yang Shangxian nodded and said, "Your Majesty today, the subsidy to the coastal areas of the south of the Yangtze River is extremely high, and it is to ask our yamen to work together to develop foreign trade.

The Liu family was originally a porter who made a fortune, and he was very cunning, as said in this excerpt, he borrowed money from the yamen to expand the factory.

The lower officials estimated that the Liu family did not even have a factory now, and it was clear that they wanted to use the subsidy of the yamen to do a business.

Your Excellency, you'd rather send someone to find out. ”

"Damn!" The old man of Futai slapped his palm on the table, hating itchy, but obviously, he believed in Yang Shangxian's judgment very much, "The car and boat shop should be killed if he is not guilty!" The money was deceived to the head of the official?!

I'm going to have them taken down!" ”

Yang Shang stopped first,

"Lord Futai, don't worry."

When the old man who went to Taiwan heard this, he frowned and asked, "There's no need to rush this?" ”

"My lord, the lower officials think that the Liu family should also be given a subsidy to the yamen."

"Huh?" Dong An, the governor of Ji'an Prefecture, opened his mouth wide, he thought that Yang Shang was schizophrenic first, and asked, "Still allocate money?" ”

"Yes."

"Knowing that the Liu family is defrauding the yamen of money, still want to allocate it to them?"

"Hmm."

"Shang Xian, are you burning?" The old man of Futai put his hand on Yang Shangxian's forehead, tested the temperature, and muttered, "It's okay." ”

Yang Shangxian smiled gently, "My lord, the purpose of the imperial court's appropriations for our yamen is to use this appropriation to encourage the private sector to build factories.

Let's go to visit the Liu family first and scare them, they will definitely not dare to have two hearts.

After that, the yamen allocated another fund, and they must be grateful to Dade,

Whether they really want to build a factory or not, when that time comes, whether they want to build it or not, they have to build it.

This is also used in practice, and the Liu family is also controlled by the yamen.

The appropriations of the imperial court have been useful, and the people have also built factories, so why not? ”

"Dial... Don't dial... Appropriation... Build a factory..."

Dong An muttered for a long time, and then straightened out his thoughts, and then, excitedly,

"Shang Xian! What a good idea! Good! Let's scare and scare this Liu family first, and then allocate funds! ”

"Your Excellency is wise."

The old man of Futai looked at Yang Shangxian, white hair had already grown between his sideburns, and he couldn't help but sigh,

"Shang Xian, you have such a great talent, you shouldn't shrink into this small yamen."

Yang Shangxian shook his head firmly and said, "My lord, Shang Xian is willing to follow you for the rest of his life." ”

Back then, Yang Shangxian was young and crazy, and made a big mistake, that is, he was rescued by Dong An.

After that, Yang Shangxian worked for Dong An for ten years, and was willing to do this as the master behind the scenes.

The old man of Futai shook his head, "Alas, you said that you have such a temperament, even if you are still willing to be in this yamen, it is time to rise a little higher.

Speaking of which, the credit you have made is enough to sit in my position,

If you don't want to leave the yamen, you can choose any official position above and below the yamen, how about it? ”

"Thank you for your kindness, it's quite comfortable to be a master first."

Obviously, the two of them have talked about similar topics many times, and when they saw that Yang Shangxian could not be persuaded to do so, the master of Futai changed the topic.

"Huh? First? How is Rong'er in Beijing? Have you ever written to you? ”

Yang Shangxian said in a low voice,

"My lord, I don't know how Rong'er is in Beijing."

"This kid is really, he doesn't even know how to write you a letter?"

Yang Shangxian seemed to think of his son's unique arrogant expression, and said with a little pride in his tone,

"My lord, I told him not to write to him."
