The idle Secretary

When I looked up again, I saw in front of me the proud feeling when I was ranked second in high school.

Gradually, various pictures gradually emerged around him, as if someone was presenting his past one by one before his eyes.

He and his wife had a wedding ceremony, and he went out to the county to work with the people in the fields. He was frustrated by being suppressed time and time again. In order to get promoted, he began to seek his own way out for the first time. He received a letter from Beijing saying that the Cao family was impeached because of his depression.

…

"Fellow Taoist, fellow Taoist...are you okay?" A voice came into my ears.

Magistrate Zhao woke up from the illusion in an instant and found that he was still standing in the Mirror Pavilion.

Are there any pictures of the past around?

Magistrate Zhao was slightly surprised for a moment. Could it be that he was dreaming just now?

Magistrate Zhao suppressed the doubts in his heart, smiled and shook his head and replied: "It's okay."

Only then did Wang Sanlang feel relieved: "Fellow Taoist, Mingjing Pavilion is slightly different from other pavilions. Visitors can only stay for one day and are given ten taels of silver per day. Are you willing to accept it?"

Magistrate Zhao nodded: "Okay."

When Wang Sanlang saw that Magistrate Zhao agreed, he smiled happily and hurriedly led Magistrate Zhao to the inner room: "If you want to work, Taoist friend, you can send someone to work at the desk. This is the bed for you to rest. Enter the city on the second floor.

To deliver the corresponding meals, you don’t need to go downstairs. For all other needs, you can pull the rope on the wall and we will hear the bell and come up in time.”

"This design is quite exquisite." Magistrate Zhao said.

Wang Sanlang smiled and saluted: "Then I won't disturb fellow Taoists. I'll leave first."

After saying that, he turned around and left "Mingjing Pavilion", not forgetting to close the door when he went out.

Then he stood there and wiped his forehead, and said to himself: "Officials are different. Fortunately, I have remembered everything my aunt taught me. Otherwise, I would have made a big fool of myself if I was asked."

Magistrate Zhao walked around the Mingjing Pavilion for a while and felt that the layout here was very Zen-like.

The air seemed to be purer than on the first floor, and there was a sense of peace and tranquility in it. He sat down at the desk and thought about the melancholy he had encountered recently.

It was as if I was watching, and my state of mind was already very different from before.

"This second floor is really extraordinary!" Magistrate Zhao felt that he had never had such a calm mind before.

This is the case with Mingjing Pavilion, and it must be the same with other pavilions. No wonder his mother has always said that the second floor is the cave of immortals. I don't know where the little girl has met some otherworldly masters to create such an extraordinary place.

He had a hunch that if Shanhaiju opened in Shangjing, it would definitely be a place where the princes and nobles of Dayong would flock to.

Secretary Qing only learned about Magistrate Zhao's entry into Mingjing Pavilion a day later from the people delivering food in the village.

Si Qing, who knew about it, didn't ask too much. Instead, he squatted by the river with his face in his hands and watched a few three- and two-year-old children digging holes to raise tadpoles.

She has been so bored recently. The older children in the village are busy mowing grass and catching insects, or working in the fields with the adults.

Si Xizhu and Si Xiaocong were still learning and writing with Si Zhengping.

Originally, when Si Zhengping was busy, he had no time to take care of them. They could sneak out and play with Si Qing for a while. Recently, Si Yongan came back to study with them and took charge of them on Si Zhengping's behalf.

In Si Xiaoshun's words, Si Yongan looked like Si Jinsong, his eyes would light up when he talked about studying, he would light up himself, and even pull them to do it together.

Si Xiaoshun was trained and docile by his own brother, and the number of times he had to urinate has been reduced a lot recently.

Without Si Xiaoshun, Si Xizhu and the others came to disturb her from time to time. At first she thought it was quite beautiful, but over time it became boring.
