Whatever happened in Weinan, let it stay in Weinan. When Li Tai returned to Huazhou, he had forgotten that he broke the man's leg.
Of course, the first thing he did when he came back was to rush to Taifu to accept his new official appointment. Chang'an had been delayed for many days, and he felt a little sorry in his heart.
After changing into an official robe, Li Tai went straight to the main hall of the Taifu Palace. However, from early morning to dusk, people came and went to worship at Daxingtai, but no one paid any attention to Li Tai.
It was not that no one paid attention to him. He was standing here in the corridor outside the main hall. He saw many familiar colleagues coming and going. Many people pointed at him and even made fun of him secretly. Some people left shortly after and brought a few colleagues with them.
When he returned, his face was filled with gloating smiles.
Li Tai couldn't tell that these bastards were laughing at him, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Who knows that he has indeed made Daxingtai unhappy, and he is slacking off and slacking off work. Daxingtai gave him a new appointment more than ten days ago, but he has been absent from work until now. Even after repeated visits to the Taixing government, there was no response.
How can Daxingtai not have a temper for such an unreliable official?
Just when the sun was about to set and Li Tai was standing drowsily, an attendant finally came out of the hall and shouted: "Da Xingtai, Gao Pingnan, come in."
Li Tai quickly patted his cheek, cheered up, and then walked into the hall with his legs raised. He did not dare to look up, but just bowed his head and said, "Convict Li Boshan, is he going to kowtow at Daxingtai?"
There was no sound from the hall for a long time. Li Tai couldn't help but look up and met Yu Wentai's angry eyes. He lowered his head again in a hurry.
"Tell me, where did your sin come from?"
Seeing his appearance, Yu Wentai finally asked in a deep voice.
"I am too stupid to dare to overestimate my superior's will. Thunder, rain and dew are not expressions of gratitude. I can only accept them happily!"
Li Tai knew that Yu Wentai was very emotional towards him, so of course he would not stupidly provide a solid reason to vent his anger, but just showed a sincere attitude of accepting the attack and accepting punishment.
"Are you stupid? If you were really stupid, you would be able to make grudges accurately several times and harm my friendship!"
After Yu Wentai heard this, he became even more angry. He pointed at Li Tai and yelled angrily.
Li Tai was also very happy when he heard this. Indeed, he had asked his boss to wipe his butt quite frequently during this period. He was so dignified that he almost became his professional shit-sweeper.
"If I am not a sage, how can I have no faults? The sapphire retains its brilliance, but its flaws cannot be concealed. Even if it is carved by heaven, it can also be made into a weapon. If you practice Taigong and participate in nature, you will not abandon your subordinates. If you keep this knowledge, I will not be afraid of making grudges in the world!"
Li Tai quickly lowered his head and said, I have a boss, who should I be afraid of?
When Yu Wentai heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "Young man, if you only have three points of clever words to use in interpersonal relationships, you won't make grudges everywhere and bother others! Who of all the evil people I see is
You are a solitary person? Why can't I tolerate you?"
"My bones and muscles are strong and I don't follow the trend. Since my talents belong to me, why do I have to compromise for perfection? It is better to work hard to please everyone than to use my wisdom to help the king. A small minister is not great, but he is strong if he abides by the road. Although the road is full of thorns, what does it mean to me?
damage!"
Hearing that Yu Wentai was still scolding, but his tone had softened a bit, Li Tai quickly added another force, "No one in this world deserves my good looks except Daxingtai."
Although Yu Wentai sent Su Chuo to Chang'an, he was still full of dissatisfaction with Li Tai. Not long after this boy joined the Tai government, he had already started to have grievances with his senior fellow countrymen and his confidant generals. No matter how talented he was, in his
The impression in my heart gradually turned into one of arrogance and rebelliousness.
But after hearing these words, his mood also changed subtly.
Taking another look at Li Tai, this guy is from a good family background, handsome, talented, and speaks nicely. He is not an annoying guy when viewed horizontally or vertically. Although he is sometimes arrogant and arrogant, he is not so arrogant.
Provoke public outrage.
The past few times I had grudges against others, it cannot be said that it was entirely this boy's fault. It could even be said that there was no fault at all. It was just that the other party was used to being strong and he happened to meet someone who refused to bow his head and surrendered, and that was why things troubled him.
It’s true that I reward my employees and they can work diligently. Do I have to force them to be patient and bow their heads in everything every day?
At the thought of this, Yu Wentai's expression became even calmer, and when he was about to speak, he suddenly swallowed. He was almost fooled by this kid again due to his negligence!
He snorted again: "There are many people in the Taiwan government who are doing things, but how many of them are as lazy as you? I hired you to work, not to allow you to roam the wilds and step on thorns!"
"I am guilty, I am guilty! Only with loyalty and diligence can I make up for my past mistakes. If things go wrong, I will die without regrets."
Li Tai didn't dare to argue with you, my fellow countryman, for detaining me. Why are you yelling at me? He quickly corrected his attitude and promised.
After hearing this, Yu Wentai's anger subsided, and he ordered the officials to give Li Tai a written order that had been written for many days. Then he said: "The members of the capital and the envoys of the canals and weirs raised their own funds from the government and the public.
The Public Lands Department will make preparations as soon as possible. Reports will be made in ten months, and there must be no mistakes. Get lost!"
After hearing this, Li Tai quickly kowtowed and thanked him. He held the written order in his hand and resigned. After he retreated outside the hall, he couldn't help clenching his fists and waving his arms.
He also didn't expect that Yuwentai actually gave him such great autonomy, leaving everything from personnel selection to department structure to him. This was like the treatment of a government official!
Of course, he also seriously doubted that the reason why Yuwentai gave him such a large amount of autonomy was that he was not familiar with the new business. Neither the imperial court nor the Bafu had a mature administrative team, so he needed to build it from scratch.
It was no longer doubtful. He had discussed this appointment with several cousins when he was in Chang'an. Before that, there were no official posts for the Dushui envoy in the court, and only the Sinong Shaoqing was in charge of it. As for the Bafu
This side is led by Hucao, Tiancao, various field officials and local officials.
Therefore, when Li Tai, the new official of Luoshui River, took office, the first problem he faced was to establish the personnel framework and centralize the scattered powers before he could carry out actual administrative work.
After exiting the Zhitang Hall, Li Tai received his official talisman and official seal, and the sky was completely dark.
He did not stay in Taifu any longer and returned directly to Gao Zhongmi's house in Huazhou City.
"Brother, you are finally back, are you okay?"
As soon as Li Tai returned home, Shufeng rushed out from the inner hall, looked at Li Tai from side to side, then patted his chest and said, "It's okay. I've been waiting here for brother for the past few days. You
If you don’t come back, I’ll leave again tonight!”
Seeing that this boy cared so much about him, Li Tai was quite relieved. He patted his head and said with a smile: "You have already gone to rescue me personally. What can I do? Is your Majesty still at home? I will take you home by the way.
Visit him."
"Aye left two days ago. I miss my brother, so I will stay here tonight."
Shuofeng took Li Tai's arm, relying on him very much, and said politely: "I know that brother, you are trapped in Chang'an. I have already planned to lead people to attack and rob. If you don't believe me, just ask a few of them."
After hearing this, several people nearby also smiled and nodded and said, "Mr. Lang is telling the truth."
Gao Zhongmi also stepped forward, patted Li Tai on the shoulder and said, "It's good to come back. Don't go into danger again and make those close to you worried."
Li Tai saw that he looked haggard and was stumbling, so he asked, "Is it possible that uncle is ill?"
"My lord, I have been praying to the Taifu for several days..."
Gao Bailing spoke on the side, but Gao Zhongmi glared at him and did not dare to say any more.
Gao Zhongmi sighed with some embarrassment: "Now that I have no power, I can only hurt my self-esteem and hope that the powerful will show mercy. As long as you are fine, Apan, I have nothing to do with you except watching you. All the people are here
It's a drag, but it doesn't help you..."
Although Li Tai had been detained for several days, he didn't think it was a big deal. However, hearing Gao Zhongmi's sad and ashamed tone, he couldn't help but feel sad. He just said in a deep voice: "Those who depend on each other for life, no one is a drag on anyone else. Don't worry, uncle."
Well, there will be no such torture in the future."
The group of people walked into the hall while talking. As soon as they sat down, a servant came to tell them that a slave of Duguxin's family was outside the door asking to see him.
Isn't this here to ask for an account?
Li Tai muttered to himself, but still hurried to the front hall to meet him.
Several soldiers of the Dugu family entered the hall, and among them was a young maid who had lived with Dugu Miaoyin in Shangyuan Village for a period of time.
The little maid held a long and narrow wooden box in her hand. After entering the hall, she first bowed and saluted, and then said: "A few days ago, some gentlemen reported that Li Lang was trapped in Chang'an, and I have been worried about it. Because of the inconvenience of mourning, the old master of the household
Outside, the mistress is celebrating, and it is not easy to arrange staff. The lady can only sit and pray for Li Lang's safety..."
"Thank you for your concern, Mrs. Miaoyin. I have been busy with chores recently and have neglected to visit. I will definitely come to pay my respects in the future."
After He Basheng's death, Miaoyin, his adopted daughter, left Shang Yuan. After the funeral, she stayed at He Basheng's mansion in Huazhou to mourn. However, Li Tai never had time to see her. When he heard the lady's concern and condolences,
He replied.
"My wife asked my slave to tell my husband that the scandal in the household is really embarrassing. No matter what the public comments say, I know that my husband is sincere and sincere towards the deceased grand master. I will not accept the huge sums of money and goods demanded by the ugly heir.
Yes. If there are still people who are causing trouble because of this, please kill them with this sword!"
While talking, the maid came forward, placed the wooden box on the table and opened it. Inside was a sharp-edged sword. Although the decoration was not as gorgeous as the sword Li Tai handed over to his father-in-law, the blade had a fine blade.
Win it.
Before Li Tai could speak, the maid continued: "This sword was worn by the old master of the household. My wife said that you don't have to worry about causing trouble because of it. The old master and the late grand master had a deep friendship. This is the matter in this family."
You shouldn’t stay out of the matter. The husband is loyal to the old master, and the old master should also shield the husband from right and wrong.”
Li Tai was immediately happy when he heard this. Does it mean that even if he kills people with this knife, the blame will be placed on Dugu Xin's head?
Although he would not do this, he was moved by this concern. He raised his hand to hold Dugu Xin's sword and inspected it for a moment, and then said to the maid: "Please tell Madam Miaoyin, Madam not only gave you a sharp blade, but also a sword."
I am a man of this age who has the courage and ambition to face difficulties without fear. I will never forget the value of things and hope to be able to repay him!"
