The Imperial Concubine summoned Gu Qing, and such a big event was naturally worth a trip to Shiqiao Village in person by the magistrate of Wei County.

However, Gu Qing's reaction disappointed him very much. He was not as ecstatic as he expected or excited. Gu Qing acted as if the neighbor next door invited him to visit him.

"Young Lord, it is a big deal to summon the concubine. You must not be disrespectful to you, nor should you misbehave in front of you, otherwise the happy event will turn into a disaster." Wei Du looked at him worriedly.

"Ah, I'm not being slighted. Can't Weixian Zun see that I'm ecstatic at this moment?"

Wei Du was speechless: "...I am sorry for the official to say frankly, I can't see it."

Gu Qing raised his hands high, turned around in a circle, cheering and thrilling: "Yeah——"

Then he quickly recovered his unhappy expression and said, "Did you see it now?"

Wei Du took a deep breath. If it weren't for the boy's impending summoning by the imperial concubine, he might have become successful from now on. Wei Du insisted on curing him for disrespect and threw him into the prison and circled him.

The words had already reached, and Wei Du wanted to leave. He found it difficult to chat happily with people like Gu Qing, and he felt very upset every time he chatted.

Just as he was about to say goodbye, Gu Qing suddenly said: "The county master took office in Qingcheng County. Is it a bit busy to manage the affairs of the county?"

Wei Du was stunned and said, "It's indeed a bit messy. Fortunately, I brought two Mu Guests when I took office, so I could help share some of the burden."

Gu Qing said earnestly: "The people dared to say a lie. If the county magistrate wants to live and work in peace and stability, and theft will be eliminated, he should still use his own people more."

Wei Du was confused by his words: "Mubin of this official is his own person."

Gu Qing sighed: "It's too little. The matters of a whole county are decided by the county master. What can two of us do? Compared to the charm of the county master last time when we met the county master, today the Caomin saw that the county master was much haggard, and there were a lot of white hair on his temples. The Caomin saw it in his eyes and felt it hurt in his heart..."

Wei Du rolled his eyes to the sky and sighed, "Gu Qing, you have a close relationship with Jishuai, and you will be summoned by the Imperial Concubine again soon. The future is limitless. I will say that I will rely on you in the future, so if you have something, you will just say it without being beaten around the bush. I will try my best to agree if I can."

Gu Qing smiled: "The county master is indeed an open-minded and transparent person. Qingcheng County can be the honor of the county master as its parents, and the people are lucky. Ah, so Caomin said it straightforwardly. Caomin has a friend who has been familiar with the books of sages for many years and is dedicated to serving the country but has no way to do so. He is honest and loyal, calm and extraordinary. If the county master does not abandon him, can he be taken over and share your worries?"

Wei Du frowned: "Since you are familiar with the books of sages, why not get into the officialdom?"

"'Reading' is not 'intensive reading'. The scientific examination is inevitably short of ignition. The Caomin means that he can share your worries and study hard while studying hard. Maybe one day he can get a title on the list. In the future, he said to outsiders that he had served under the county master before he became a Jinshi. You have face, right?"

Wei Du stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, and said, "Let me see him first. If he agrees, he can join the county government office as an official. Just then a chief clerk was dismissed by the official the day before yesterday. The chief clerk was not dedicated to his work, and he did not make any household registration, money and food accounts. I am afraid that it was a trick in it. If he was willing, come to the county government office to be a chief clerk."

Gu Qing was overjoyed and hurriedly saluted and thanked: "Thank you, the county magistrate, let him see you now."

As he said that, Gu Qing recruited a villager and asked him to go to the village school to bring Song Gensheng over.

Soon Song Gensheng was staggered and was confused and looked at Gu Qing after seeing Wei Du's courtesy.

Gu Qing ignored him and smiled at Wei Du: "How about the county master? Is it a good talent? I look a little ordinary, but it just didn't take away the brilliance of the county master. No matter where he is, he looks like a green leaf, setting off the red flower of the county master. Look at this, it's so green that it can't be greener."

Song Gensheng:???

Wei Du nodded quite satisfied and asked in a deep voice: "How many years have you read?"

Song Gensheng said respectfully: "I have read the county people for more than ten years, but because my family is poor, I can't afford to buy books. I don't read many books, and I have gone through those books over and over again."

“Can you know how to write?”

"meeting."

"Can the accounts of money and grain be calculated?"

"I don't know much..." Song Gensheng said honestly.

Gu Qing hurriedly said, "But he knows how to learn. He is very diligent in learning. He can get started skillfully in less than a few days, right? Gensheng?"

Song Gensheng looked at him blankly. Gu Qing suddenly felt angry when he saw his stupid look and kicked him and staggered.

Wei Du's cheeks twitched slightly, and he was speechless at Gu Qing's rough style. He sighed and said, "It's not difficult to get started with the chief clerk. It's nothing more than recording the household registration accounts of money and grain. After a few days of study, I will understand. In this way, I will join our county government as the chief clerk."

Song Gensheng still looked dull, and Gu Qing kicked him again in anger and woke him up.

"Thank you, County Master!" Gu Qing gritted his teeth with a smile.

Song Gensheng suddenly shuddered and hurriedly bowed: "The people in the grass thank the county for their grace."

Wei Du said in a deep voice: "You are allowed to be an official because of Gu Qing's face. After joining the company, you must be rigorous and diligent. You must not be lazy in one day. You must also read more books while performing your duties. If you are really a talent, you must not just be a minor official in a county government office in this life. You should have the ambition of Kunpeng as a torrent of the clouds and the heart of an eagle to attack the sky. Do you understand?"

Song Gensheng is so arrogant.

Wei Du smiled at Gu Qing and said, "I am like an honest man. Fortunately, the position of chief clerk requires an honest man. Unfortunately, I am a little younger and need to practice for a few years to calm down. I will use it first, and I will come to the county government tomorrow to get a job. But the ugly saying goes ahead. If I find that this person is useless, maybe he will be dismissed. At that time, I hope that the young man will not hold a grudge against me."

Gu Qing bowed and smiled and said, "If he is really not that material, the county magistrate will be exempted from being removed at any time. The people will only be grateful to the county magistrate and will never hold a grudge."

Wei Du gave a few more words to see the etiquette that the imperial concubine should have, and then said goodbye and left.

After seeing Wei Du off, Song Gensheng still looked like he was still dreaming and said in disbelief: "I... am I the chief clerk now?"

Gu Qing smiled and stroked his dog's head: "Yes, although the chief clerk is not an official, he is still one step closer to your ideal, cherish it."

Song Gensheng said in a touching manner: "Did you help me plead with the county magistrate?"

Gu Qing smiled and said softly: "Silly child, it is the county master who heard that you are a rare talent in all villages, so he came to our village in person to ask you to come out of the mountain. He felt that you have the talent of heaven and earth, and that the people of the world all depended on you to help them benefit. Let you be a small chief clerk. The county master was already guilty and felt that he had been wronged. He said you should be the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty..."

Song Gensheng was shocked: "I... am so talented? Why don't I know?"

Gu Qing hooked his neck with one hand, pinched it tightly, clenched his other hand into a fist, drilling hard on his head, gritting his teeth and said, "You believe me, how stupid you are! Of course, I pleaded with the county lord! Do you know how much face I have? If the imperial concubine had not summoned me, would you think the county magistrate Wei would promise you to be the chief clerk?"

Song Gensheng was so painful that his hands were slashing and his feet were striking, and he kept struggling, and his face turned red and said with a sarcastic voice: "I know, I know, let go! I'm almost dying!"

After venting, Gu Qing felt relieved and returned to his kindness, helping Song Gensheng tidy up his clothes.

"Gensheng, your ideal has begun. Do your best to not disappoint the county magistrate. More importantly, you must keep your original intention in the officialdom of fame and fortune. In the future, you must be a good official and don't implicate me. Do you understand?"

Song Gensheng looked at his eyes and nodded vigorously: "I will not let anyone down, especially you. I will use my life to protect my true heart. There are shades and sunshines in the universe, good and evil, but my heart is always clean."

Song Gensheng's eyes were clear and clear, just like the innocent boy he had at the time.

Gu Qing recalled the first time he saw him, and the sky that day was as clean as his eyes.

…………

After simply packing his luggage, Gu Qing set off.

Before leaving, Gu Qing left very low-key, and many villagers didn't even know that he was going to Shuzhou to meet the concubine.

He left enough wine for Li Bai and told Xiuer and his daughter to deliver food to Li Bai every day. As for Zhang Huaiyu, Gu Qing did not have any extra advice. He knew that Zhang Huaiyu would take good care of him and that brothers would not have to be so pretentious.

Qingcheng County is about 100 miles away from Shuzhou. It is very far away and very tired when walking. Gu Qing, who is not short of money, naturally would not feel wronged. He hired a carriage in the carriage shop in Qingcheng County. After negotiating the price for the round trip, Gu Qing then walked comfortably in the carriage all day and soon arrived in Shuzhou City.

Shuzhou City is considered a medium-sized city, neither big nor small. The civilians in the city generally live a richer life than Qingcheng County. After entering the city, there is a clear difference from the wear of civilians.

After Gu Qing entered the city, he met Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing first. The two shopkeepers were very excited. Although the imperial concubine did not summon them, she summoned Gu Qing and explained that her porcelain kiln would be famous all over the world. In the future, Gu Qing was summoned by the imperial concubine and could become one of the gimmicks to attract customers. Seeing the imperial concubine seemed simple, there were huge benefits behind it.

As the party involved, Gu Qing's reaction was very dull.

Perhaps the only reason that made him a little excited was that he finally met Yang Guifei, one of the four beauties in history. She read some messy books and books in her previous life. Legend has it that her armpits were cumin-flavored. I don’t know whether it was true or not, but when I think about it, I feel a bit...perverted.

After a quick meeting with the two shopkeepers, not long after chatting, Gu Qing rushed to Xianyu Zhongtong's temporary residence. After meeting Xianyu Zhongtong, the two chatted for more than an hour. Most of them were Xianyu Zhongtong's etiquette for meeting the concubine and how to please the concubine. However, Xianyu Zhongtong thought about it and wrote more professional poems than him. He was also a lonely tribute porcelain and "natural beauty is hard to give up", which made the concubine feel excited. In terms of the skills and strength of flattery, this kid was at countless levels higher than him. When was it his turn to teach Gu Qing how to please the concubine?

So Xian Yu Zhong said halfway through the call and stopped talking.
