Translator: 549690339
“Shameless, absolutely shameless! This Xu Xinian was really unscrupulous for his future. Why didn’t he spend all his money? Our salaries are limited, and we’re just trying to make a living.”
“Hmph, he’s just a lowly official.”
he’s not just a villain, he’s also a pretty boy. If he didn’t seduce chief advisor Wang’s daughter with his girly face, he would be nothing.
In any era, forced donations were not welcomed and even loathed by any group of people.
After all, there were only a few loyal soldiers who were hot-blooded and devoted to the country.
Coupled with the fact that he had become the first assistant Minister of the court on the New Year’s list and had a bright future ahead of him, he had undoubtedly become the object of abuse and disdain from all levels of the officialdom.
Hanlin Academy.
Xu Xinian, who was in the center of the storm, ignored all the rumors from the outside world and bent over his desk to write a notice.
“Farewell,”
A few Shu Ji soldiers stepped into the hall and said indignantly,
“The scolding outside is getting louder and louder. This group of muddleheaded people have read the books of the sages for so many years in vain.”
Hmph, they’re used to living an extravagant life. Why would they care about the lives of the people? ”
The Hanlin Academy was a clear stream among clear streams. They had always had their eyes on the top of their heads and looked down on ordinary officials.
If ordinary officials were compared to mud, then they were self-proclaimed lotuses.
His usual arrogant attitude was annoying.
However, they were indeed purer than ordinary officials, their thoughts more open, and their minds had not yet been polluted by the big VAT of officialdom.
Xu Erlang thought for a while, took out a piece of paper, and wrote:
“For the past six hundred years, how could the civil and military officials all escape?”
The eyes of the few Shu Ji soldiers lit up as they clapped their hands and praised,”Excellent!”
At this time, the rigid and serious scholar of the Hanlin Academy, MA Xiuwen, walked in with his hands behind his back and an expressionless face.
“Sir!”
Xu niannian and a few other Shu lucky soldiers saluted.
Matthew’s personality was old-fashioned and he had no expression all year round, so his face looked stiff. He gave a cold hum and said, ”
“Xu cijiu, come to my Hall,”
With that, he turned around and left.
A few of them gave Xu niannian a look that said, ” you’re on your own.
Xu niannian smiled bitterly. It was rare for him to feel a tingling sensation on his scalp.
He cupped his hands at his colleagues and left quickly to where mathewain was sitting.
MA Xiuwen sat behind the table, holding a glazed blue and white teacup in his hand. His eyes stared at Xu niannian through the rising steam.
“Pour your own tea!”
He said indifferently.
Xu niannian shook his head. I’m full of tea. I can’t eat anymore.
MA Xiuwen didn’t force him. He was silent for a while, then suddenly said, ”
“Chief advisor Wang’s idea?”
Xu niannian shook his head. it’s my own idea. You didn’t know about it at first. It was only when His Majesty adopted my plan that I informed the head assistant Minister.”
MA Xiuwen came to a sudden realization. I knew it. How could chief advisor Wang let you do such a thing that would anger the public? ” Cutting off one’s path to wealth was like killing one’s parents. It’s not much better to steal people’s money.”
He took a sip of hot tea and continued, ”
“It’s hard for Your Majesty to even reach out and take money from their pockets, let alone you.
“You haven’t even left the Hanlin Academy and you’ve already ruined your reputation. That day when I blocked the meridian Gate with the officials and angrily rebuked King Huai’s good impression, it was all ruined because of this matter.”
“A truly loyal man will not blame or hate me for this,” Xu xinnian said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
MA Xiuwen was the Grand scholar of the Hanlin Academy. He was in charge of teaching the young officials of the Hanlin Academy. Xu Xinyi was also considered his student.
Grand scholar MA shook his head. in the end, we’ll have to live in the same world as the light. I might as well tell you frankly that this plan won’t work.
After a pause, he said in a deep voice,”when I went out just now, there were many people who scolded you, and those who were jealous of you wanted to take the opportunity to deal with you.” Be prepared to be impeached tomorrow.”
“Thank you for your reminder, Sir,” Xu niannian said with a bow.
“Go ahead.” Mathewain waved his hand.
When Xu niannian returned to the office, a few good friends came over and said, ”
farewell. After I’m done with my duty, I’ll go to the Imperial Academy for a drink and forget about these bad things.
It was normal and common for officials to go to the teaching workshop together after work.
Xu niannian subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he heard a colleague say, ”
“It’s so cold that I can’t even hold a pen in my hand. I need the chests of the girls of the Academy to warm me up.”
Xu cijiu, who hadn’t touched a woman in months, agreed after some thought, ”
“However, I have something to do at home tonight and have to return to the fu before dusk, so I won’t be resting at the Imperial Academy’s workshop tonight.”
Dusk!
Xu Qi ‘an left Ling Bao temple with his mysterious means and followed the crowd to the Xu mansion.
No matter how serious the disasters were, the capital, especially the inner city and the Imperial City, was always filled with songs and dances, and the people were rich and healthy.
“It’s easy to be blinded by a leaf!”
He sighed and looked around the street as he walked.
Very quickly, he found his target, an old man who sold green oranges.
The old man was sitting on the side of the street, with two baskets of green oranges in front of him.
Green orange tastes sour, can dissolve phlegm, stop coughing, and soothe the lungs. Orange skin has a strong taste, can be burned to drive away mosquitoes after drying.
Its medicinal value was extremely high, so its sales had always been very good.
“State preceptor has put on. lot of Rouge, I have to get rid of the smell …”
Xu Qi ‘an instinctively bought a bag of green oranges and used the skin Juice to remove the smell of makeup on her body.
Then, he suddenly realized … Why do I need to get rid of the smell of makeup?
Back then, he had used the orange juice as a cover because Xu dalang’s character was a simple and honest teenager who would not even go to brothels.
The whole family thought so.
However, as his reputation grew, the title of the head of the Academy’s workshop could no longer be suppressed.
There was no need to hide it anymore.
“Sigh, my youth is over.”
Xu Qi ‘an was still carefully using orange juice to get rid of the smell of the Rouge. Then, she went home with a bag of green oranges.
He could give it to Ling Ying!
She would treat it as a gift from her big brother when he returned home.
He strolled to the entrance of the Xu family’s residence. His ears twitched and he turned his head to look behind him, only to see Xu Erlang riding home on a fine horse.
Erlang also saw Xu Qi ‘an. He could not hide the joy on his face. He pulled the reins of his horse in a panic and shouted as he got off the horse, ”
“Big brother!”
Xu Qi ‘an was about to nod in response, but Xu niannian took out a bag of green oranges from his Horse Bag.
At this time, Xu niannian also noticed the paper bag in his brother’s hand. He took a closer look and saw that it was a green orange!
The two brothers looked at each other in silence for a moment. Neither of them mentioned this. As they nodded to each other, second uncle Xu also returned.
“Ningyan!”
Second uncle Xu was overjoyed to see his nephew who he had not seen for a long time, even though he had already heard from Xu lingyue last night that eldest brother had returned.
“You’re finally back. Your aunt has been worried about you every day …”
Second uncle Xu got off the horse and took out a bulging kraft paper bag from the horse Bag as he spoke.
When second uncle Xu saw the green oranges in his nephew and son’s hands, his face suddenly froze.
Father and son, uncle and nephew, and brothers looked at each other in silence.
Ye Qing returned … Xu Qi ‘an muttered in his heart.
