Chapter Eighteen: Undercurrent
Some people can ignore their piano skills.
Lin Miyue's willow eyebrows frowned slightly invisibly.
This is the first time.
Although she had long disdained to be sought after, she was a little uncomfortable when she saw someone ignore it.
"Girl, let's have another song!"
"Yes! Another song!"
Someone started to cheer.
"Sorry, sirs, the little girl is tired, so I will take her leave first."
Originally, Lin Miyue had agreed to play only one song. If it weren't for the old friend of Gongsun, she wouldn't even appreciate this song.
After all, she doesn't like being watched and played by a group of people, like a brothel girl.
Especially those who listen to her playing are a group of ordinary people who don’t understand music, who only know nonsense and flattery.
She felt even more of a waste of time.
Especially here there is a man who is too lazy to praise his own music. Lin Miyue is not interested in anything, so she immediately stood up to say goodbye.
Looking at her graceful and gentle back, the high-ranking Shangshu Gongsun Hou, with a bright look, picked up the wine glass and poured it into his mouth, and found that there was no wine in the glass...
I also ate the rice and drank the wine, and listened to the Miaoyin of Qin Sheng. The greetings specially prepared for Xu Tian were concluded successfully.
"Sir, don't forget to report to the Heavenly Lord's Court tomorrow."
When everyone dispersed, Lord Shangshu also took special care of Xu Tian.
"Okay, Lord Shangshu."
Xu Tian also responded politely.
It seemed that nothing had happened between the two, and there had never been a story of mutual humiliation with dogs.
Alas, Xu Tian sighed in his heart, as pure as me, but he was still polluted by bad habits in the officialdom.
Even if you want to stab the other person to death, you still have to smile on the surface.
This is politics.
As a true gentleman, Xu Tian doesn't like this atmosphere very much.
If you don’t like each other, why do you have to intrigue and arrange each other? Can’t you sit down and slash each other calmly?
But how can you live in the world? How can you avoid the world?
...
After leaving the Shangshu Mansion, Xu Tian and two beautiful guards were about to walk home when they suddenly heard someone calling behind him: "Sir, stay, stay!"
Looking back, he saw a snow-white official, but his face looked very young, as if he was only in his twenties.
"Mr. Wei, what's the point?"
Everyone introduced themselves to Xu Tian one by one. Although he has a good memory, there are too many people and most of them don’t remember them for a while.
Only this official surnamed Wei was impressed by him.
Because the head is very white.
Wei Daxin, the governor of Xiaoran, Hangzhou.
After everyone was evading Master Shangshu because Xu Tian offended him, he actually took the initiative to greet him.
This made Xu Tian very confused.
"It's rare that the Minister of the Secretariat still remembers the official."
Wei Daxin was very moved and said, "The lower official came to remind the Minister of the Minister of War that he had offended the Minister of War. You must be careful. The Minister of the Secretary of the Shang Dynasty is narrow-minded and can never tolerate the Lord."
"I know."
Xu Tian nodded. The person who could fire at him for no reason would definitely not be a good person.
But he can't tolerate me.
I can't tolerate him either.
But this Wei Daxin...
Xu Tian looked at him with a strange look.
What's going on with this person? As soon as he comes out, he comes up to talk bad things about his boss?
"Uh. Lord, if the Xiaguan had not done anything wrong, Lord Shangshu must have squeezed away his nephew because of your arrival..."
Wei Daxin looked around for a while, and was sure that no one was following him, so he whispered.
“他侄儿?谁啊?”
Xu Tian frowned, and he was also very curious about why the Minister of War was hostile to him.
Wei Daxin said: "The Zhongdian Order of the Tianzun Martial Arts School is Gongsun Jian, the Right Minister of the Ministry of War."
公孙剑?
这个名字一听就好贱.
Zhongdian Ling, Xu Tian recalled that in this world, this position is equivalent to the director of the school’s political and educational department.
It is the kind of department head who specializes in training bad students.
As for the Right Minister, there were originally two Ministers of War, and the status of the Left Minister was generally higher than that of the Right Minister.
"I think I haven't seen this person just now."
徐添仔细回忆了一下.
I have never seen it before. When I first came, one of the two positions below the Shangshu Gongsun Hou was left for him, but the opposite was the prefect.
Obviously, another high-ranking minister, was not present.
Wei Daxin nodded and said, "Yes. The Minister of the Secretariat has been infected with the plague and is just recovering from a serious illness. He is recuperating at home."
“哦?自己挺过去了?”
徐添摩挲了一下下巴.
"Yes. Lord Zuo Shilang is dead. I'm not talking about you, but your ex. After his death, the position of Vice Principal was originally planned to be left to the Right Principal." Wei Daxin said slowly, "I saw Lord Zuo Shilang get out of crisis and be in good health. The memorials recommended him to be promoted to Vice Principal have been handed over."
"But the emperor sent me, the airborne soldier, and took away the position that should belong to his nephew..."
一下子徐添全明白了.
怪不得这老东西公然羞辱自己啊.
So that's what happened.
"Why did you tell me this?"
He showed his diligence when he had nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief. Although Xu Tian was willing to find out what he wanted to know from this white-haired Lord Wei, he still had the intention to be on guard against others.
I saw Lord Wei with a glittering hair looking up at the sky forty-five degrees and said sadly: "Because, the position of the Right Minister of War should have belonged to me. No matter how bad I am, I should still be the prefect, but because Lord Shangshu..."
“哦……”徐添恍然大悟.
接下来的故事不用说徐添也懂.
It must be that Gongsun Hou had secretly handled his nephew to come up. Not only did he take away his position as the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War, but he was demoted to a level one for some reason and was demoted from the prefect to the prefect.
"To be honest, sir, the senior official was so angry that he couldn't sleep at night because of this incident. In just one month, he had black hair."
"Sir Shangshu heard about the resentment of the lower officials, and even used means to demote me to a higher level."
Wei Daxin sighed in distress.
Xu Tian patted his shoulder sympathetically: "This is a disaster that comes from the mouth."
I saw that this was just a person who didn’t know him, so I said so much as I met him.
你这官场是咋混的?
He can still be a magistrate but not be punished to death and can burn incense.
"It was also seen that the Minister of Shangshu openly insulted the Minister of the Secretariat today. The official was moved by the scene and remembered the situation he had been targeted in the past. He was quite sympathetic to the Minister of the Secretariat. Therefore, he couldn't help but vomit. I hope he should not be surprised."
Wei Daxin looked pale and bowed, "I would like to take care of you, please take care of me, and do not confront you head-on with Lord Shangshu, and do not let your subordinate become the lesson of Lord Shang."
Oh, it turns out that they are sympathetic, and they are also kind-hearted. Xu Tian expressed his understanding: "Thank you for your reminder. Don't worry, I won't end up like you. See you later."
After saying that, he left.
Wei Daxin looked at his handsomely leaving back and sighed, "Oh, I was so energetic when I was young, but in the end I could only bow to reality."
