News travels quickly on crossroads.

Like invisible ripples, after being cast on the cross street, it spread to the surrounding areas.

Xi Lu hurriedly found Zheng Xuan and told the matter.

In the past few days, Zheng Xuan did not go out. He neither responded to the so-called call-up nor expressed his intention to stay in Chang'an.

Of course, this also expresses Zheng Xuan's attitude.

Fei Qian did not move, and the envoys summoned on behalf of the emperor were also not in a hurry. The three parties had a tacit understanding and did not say or do anything on this matter. They remained calm until this notice appeared.

As for Xi Lu, he doesn't dislike Hussar, but equally, he doesn't like Fei Qian either.

Strictly speaking, Xi Liu is not a very principled person. His principles are more based on his own interests. It is also very likely that he will start to change his own interests because his interests in a certain matter have changed.

in principle.

This kind of person is actually very common and common. To put it simply, he is like the kind of person who likes to take advantage. As long as he feels that there is an advantage, he will find various excuses for his taking advantage.

Before, Xi Lu followed Zheng Xuan all the way and worked hard. Perhaps some of it was because of Xi Lu's respect for Zheng Xuan and his service to his master. However, it is undeniable that Xi Lu originally thought that he could eat and drink behind Zheng Xuan...

…

After arriving in Chang'an, Xi Liu was very disappointed. Although Fei Qian was more polite to Zheng Xuan, he treated Zheng Xuan's disciples equally. Xi Liu even had to take an exam if he wanted to hold an official position!

As a result, Xi Lu naturally felt a little uncomfortable. I am a primary school student. Although I have no money, I like this official position. You should mail the official position package with two thousand dan in it. Don't be ignorant...

This is not to say that all "students" will definitely be like this, but for such a person, no matter what the circumstances, his mentality is like a "student". He has money to buy wine, no money to buy books, and no time to eat, drink and have fun.

Spend time studying hard.

Of course, there are some students who have a strong heart when they are very young and are not willing to accept free gifts easily. There are also some people, even when they become adults, they are still students at heart and feel that everything is like compulsory education.

They are all obligations that others should fulfill, and he only needs to enjoy them, and how much he learns depends on his mood.

In the last official examination, because the calculation of the classics was tested, did Xi worry about the calculation of the classics...

So Xi Liu didn't go, and then said that the exam was nothing and he didn't bother to go.

This time for the official assessment, although Fei Qian had already released the first question, Xi considered that he had written a few articles in private and felt that it was just average. If he took the exam, he might not be able to be among the best, and he might even be ruining his own performance.

There was a signboard, so I didn’t go there.

If he didn't go, Xi Lu would still be a good disciple of Zheng Xuan, but if he went, if his poorly written article was leaked, then Xi Lu would become a bad student.

How is this possible?

Xi Liu likes to gain benefits and enjoy the benefits, but at the same time he is afraid of being embarrassed if he fails, so it is best for him to wave his hands and say that he can't do it, and then others forcefully give it to him, and finally he says that he will not do it again and looks at someone's face.

Reluctantly accepting it is the happiest moment for everyone.

Therefore, when Zheng Xuan was summoned by the emperor, the most excited person was not Zheng Xuan, but Xi Liu. Of course, Xi Liu was a little anxious because of this. After all, he might have missed the village, or there might not be this shop.

It's a pity that Zheng Xuan never expressed his position or asked for his opinion, so Xi Liu couldn't find a chance to say it even if he was full of words. Now, taking advantage of the new notice on the cross street, Xi Liu went to visit him again.

Got Zheng Xuan...

"Salesian Office?"

Zheng Xuan repeated it slowly, and then began to ponder.

Xi Lu sat down respectfully. In terms of appearance and behavior, Xi Lu's etiquette standards were first-class.

"Master..." Xi Lu looked at Zheng Xuan who was meditating and said in a low voice, "This hussar... doesn't seem to care whether master stays or goes at all..."

Zheng Xuan glanced at Xi Lu and said, "What do you say?"

"This angel has been here for some time. Even if the hussar is busy..." Xi Liu glanced at Zheng Xuan quickly, then lowered his head and continued, "It should be expressed. How can you ignore it?"

?』

"Oh?" Zheng Xuan asked, "What do you think of the hussar?"

"This..." Xi Lu blinked and said matter-of-factly, "The position of the Emperor is the position of Crown Prince and Tutor. This hussar, even if he does not hold the position of Three Dukes, should have a salary of two thousand dan...

』

Zheng Xuan smiled slightly but did not respond.

However, Xi Liu took Zheng Xuan's performance as acquiescence, and he was somewhat encouraged. He raised his eyebrows and said: "Master has a reputation all over the world. He has read a lot of books. He has not mixed up mysteries. He has written forgedly, circulated notes, and filled in missing chapters. This is

It is the immortality of Chinese studies and the merits that cover the whole world. However... the hussar's position is not known and is not taken seriously. It is left to its own devices, even if Shui Jing is a talented person? But it is nepotism. How can it be compared to the master's vast knowledge...

…』

Zheng Xuan laughed and said: "So...according to your opinion, your talent is better than Sima Zhongda?"

"Ah?" Xi Lu was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "My disciple never said that..."

Zheng Xuan still smiled and did not continue to expose Xi Su.

Obviously, under Qiao Qi, Zheng Xuan and Sima Hui were in almost the same position. Then, under Sima Hui, Sima Yi and Sima Fu both entered the official ranks under Fei Qian. However, looking at Zheng Xuan, Xi Li didn't even get anything back.

Of course, if Zhijian Lang, who was under Zheng Xuan, could be considered an official, Xi Lu could not be considered an unofficial one, but after all, he did not have the actual delegation of power like Sima Zhongda.

On the surface, it seems that Zheng Xuan has suffered unfair treatment. Fei Qian prefers Sima Hui and does not pay much attention to Zheng Xuan as a series member, but in fact?

Obviously this is not the case. The talents of Sima Yi and Xi Lu cannot be equated.

It's just that many times, some people don't care what the facts are, they just want an excuse. When they find an excuse, they can safely explain their behavior. Even if they know that this behavior is wrong, they might as well do it.

For example, the banners from Southern Railway can be sent to Shenzhen Railway. Anyway, the subway family is a family, and the boss will not laugh at the second.

Xi Liu also believed that since Sima Hui's disciples and nephews have official positions, and they are very good ones, shouldn't Zheng Xuan, a disciple of Zheng Xuan who is more famous than Sima Hui, also get a good salary?

Official position? Is there anything wrong with this logic? It’s like if you don’t have money to eat, why don’t you watch pirated movies?

Zheng Xuan looked at Xi Xi who seemed a little angry and could not calm down, and sighed slightly.

Zheng Xuan is very old. Compared with the current average life span of a big man, every day he passes seems to be a profit. Of course, this is also because of the Chang'an Baiyi Medical Center, which allows some of his serious diseases to be treated in time.

Extended life span.

Although the Emperor Liu Xie gave him the title of Crown Prince and Tutor, for Zheng Xuan, no matter how great the title was, it was of little use. If he had to travel all the way to Xu County at this age...

"Now this "Salesian Bureau" is the Hussar's reply..."

Zheng Xuan looked at Xi Liu and said slowly, "Hushi built this "Salesian Bureau" to win the hearts of the people. After all, in recent years, there have been disputes in various places, the people have lost their homes, and many young people have lost their parents. This is why

Kind deeds are..."

"Secondly, Husband's move also has some meaning... the so-called "old man without a wife is called a widower; old man without a husband is called a widow; old man without children is called a solitary; young man without a father is said to be an orphan: these four;

The poor people in the world have no one to complain about." Zheng Xuan continued, "In this situation, Qiaoqi only raises orphans, and what else..."

Xi Lu took a breath and looked at Zheng Xuan, his eyes widening.

"The implication of this game is to focus on the young, and only the young can have a future..." Zheng Xuan said with a smile, "This is my answer... So, you can

Do you understand? What’s more... the act of riding a horse has another meaning..."

Xi Lu swallowed his saliva. He obviously didn't think of this.

"Third, you should go back and think about it carefully..." Zheng Xuan did not directly tell Xi Lu the answer, "When you have figured it out, come back to me..."

……╭(╯^╰)╮……

Qilian Mountain grassland.

Beigong felt as if someone wanted to kill him.

This is not a matter with any conclusive evidence, it is just because Beigong felt something and noticed some unfriendly sights.

When the alpha wolf in a wolf pack loses his strong body and cannot guide the wolves to obtain abundant food, the entire wolf pack will gradually begin to become restless. This is a rule on the grassland and a part of life.

In fact, the same is true for Han Chinese society, but because Han Chinese society is a farming system, it is more resistant to some disasters, while the nomadic route is more miserable, and will fluctuate greatly if there is a slight disturbance.

Therefore, Bei Gong found out very helplessly that the situation he faced was getting worse day by day.

At the beginning, these young male wolves just coughed and rubbed in front of Bei Gong, and then turned around and left when Bei Gong glanced at him, but gradually they turned into small movements, gathering together in twos and threes.

, and now they stare at Beigong and sneer from time to time. Even if Beigong turns his gaze, these wolf cubs still dare to stare at Beigong with their chests crossed.

Simple, direct, and crude.

Either lie down or lie down.

This is an almost instinctive reaction that has not changed much even after thousands of years.

It also made Beigong terrified.

He can punish one person, ten people, or even hundreds of people, but he cannot punish everyone, not even mentioning everyone, as long as more than one-half, no, maybe only more than one-third is involved, Beigong

The order of punishment will be questioned, even supported, and cannot be carried out.

Beigong's authority has been challenged. Of course, the safest way is to quickly find the male wolf that threatens the most, and then kill this male wolf in its budding stage before it is ready. For these ordinary Qiang people,

There was no need to pay too much attention to the strange look, because Bei Gong knew that as long as the first male wolf that was about to make a move was killed, the other male wolves would be peaceful for a long time.

As a result, Beigong searched for a long time and found no one with such signs.

Beigong even listed all the Qiang leaders. Five of them were brought by him, two were from the Qilian Mountain pastures, and three were from the other side of the mountain.

The larger number of people are undoubtedly from the local grasslands of Qilian Mountain...
To be continued...
