Hearing what Yu Wentai said, Li Tai couldn't help but feel a little flattered, and quickly stood up and moved to the nearest seat.
"I am so scared and foolish, I have no plan to make a living, and I have nothing to show for my righteousness. Fortunately, the Prime Minister is tolerant and tolerant, and generously gives me life. I am ashamed to receive the praise, but I am not ashamed to deserve it!"
He first saluted Yu Wentai, then bowed to the three people present, and then sat down next to him at Su Chuo's gesture. At the same time, he was secretly wary of Su Chuo's enthusiastic attitude. You yourself are being led. Pua, do you want to use me as your backing?
"Young people need to be ambitious and do not need to be modest and humble. Since I am here to control the heroes, don't I know how to recognize people? Although Li Boshan lived in the wilderness before, he did not give up on himself. His clever undertakings are promising and are worthy of publicity!"
Yu Wentai opened his mouth to praise Li Tai. Then he looked at Zheng Daoyong and said with a smile: "Does Zheng Qing know why he missed the first place in the examination last year? The reason is this person!"
When Zheng Daoyong heard this, he looked a little embarrassed. In the fifth year of his reign, he served as the governor of Qizhou. He had the best performance in the Western Dynasty for several consecutive years. However, in the last year when he was about to be deposed, he was dismissed from the political system. The famous Jingzhao Yin Cuiqian came out on top, so he felt quite depressed.
Although Wang Yong, the governor of Yongzhou where he took office, was not familiar with politics, so his long history was equivalent to that of the governor, but after all, his name was not justified.
At this time, when he heard Daxingtai say that Cui Quan's political performance had greatly improved with the help of the young man in front of him, Zheng Daoyong suddenly became very curious about Li Taisheng.
Su Chuo had been observing Li Tai, and taking advantage of this gap, he couldn't help but said: "Excuse me, Li Lang, from whom did you learn your calligraphy?"
"After the Heyin disaster, the family leader felt that the world was difficult and his righteousness was declining, so he led all his close friends to hide in Qinghe County, Dongzhou. Boshan rarely saw the world's ups and downs when he was young, so what he learned was based on family traditions, but he was good at bow and horse. Poor academics and naughty people in the household make the Fang family laugh."
Li Tai quickly replied that he didn't know that his calligraphy had been noticed by Su Chuo more than half a year ago, and he was still worried that he would be called into Daxingtai as a clerk.
"As expected of a famous family, a noble family, with exquisite scholarship and admiration! Li Lang said that he was a stubborn person at home, but some of his talents have already made many pioneers feel inferior to him."
When Su Chuo heard this, he couldn't help but sigh. Although his family is also a famous family in Guanxi, they still have no qualifications to boast about their family status in front of the famous Li family in Longxi.
The Li family in Longxi was a representative of the aristocratic clan since the Hanization of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Li Tai's background made it easier to gain recognition from members of these clans.
"I got up early to attend the ceremony, but I haven't eaten yet. I think you are also hungry. I will provide you with a small meal here. Although it is not rich, it is enough to satisfy your hunger."
Yu Wentai raised his hand and ordered the waiter to come in and serve food. The waiter excused himself first and returned soon after holding several plates of food.
Li Tai was immediately happy when he saw the food on the tray. It was the compressed military rations he had made a month ago.
But when these dry biscuits were put on the table, Li Tai discovered at a glance that they were not produced in his own manor. The outline of this dry biscuit was smaller and the ingredients were richer. In addition to flour and soybean flour, there seemed to be some added The surface of dried fruits is not dry, but slightly oily.
"This is new food made in Huazhou Tunzhong. It has not been distributed to the armies yet. Please try it first."
Yu Wentai said cheerfully, most of his eyes fell on Li Tai. He scraped off the dry cake powder and mixed it with buttermilk. After taking a sip, his eyebrows raised, and he smiled and nodded to Xue Shan, who was sitting at the other table. Said: "Sure enough, it is more delicious than the food in Yueyang. Xue Shaoqing really worked hard in supervising the military construction."
Xue Shan was a former official, Nong Shaoqing, who mainly managed the Huazhou military camp and supervised the smelting of armor and weapons. When he heard Daxingtai commending him, he quickly stood up and said: "I am ashamed. If the Lord had not given me new grains, I would have done it."
I don’t know that the military can still do such a job. I have been blessed with wisdom and will follow suit, but I really dare not take credit for it.”
Li Tai heard the conversation between the two people and was a little confused for a moment as to what Yu Wentai was doing.
The compressed military rations he made were given to the generals by Yu Wentai when he was in Yueyang, expressing his concern for them. Now he must have known that this product came from his own family.
As for ordering Guantun to follow suit, he was not surprised, but since he knew that he was the inventor but did not criticize it, and only praised Xue Shan, who was the successor to supervise the creation, he was a little confused as to what Yu Wentai wanted to express.
If you can't figure it out, just say less. Li Tai simply didn't think too deeply about it, or was eager to defend that it was his fault. He just mashed the dry biscuits and mixed them with the buttermilk to fill his stomach first.
Even in the worst case scenario, if Yu Wentai didn't like him meddling in military supplies and secretly having a secret relationship with the general of Beizhen, and even killed him after warning him, he would at least have to be a dead man.
Yu Wentai glanced at Li Tai and saw that he was not showing anything, just drinking porridge silently. His eyes flickered slightly, he raised his hand to signal Xue Shan to sit down, and he also took small bites.
After the meal, the waiter came forward to take away the tableware, and Yu Wentai waved his hand again and said: "You three go ahead, Li Boshan stays."
After the three people got up and left, Yu Wentai glanced at Li Tai who was standing in the hall and said with a smile: "Sit down, except for the position where the crowd is looking up to me, I am just a human being." He said before
Hou Mochen is unfazed by favors and humiliations, but how come he loses his composure when the time comes?"
Li Tai was really unsure at this moment. After hearing this, he quickly leaned forward and said: "People in the world may be good or evil, wise or foolish, and they are nothing more than flesh and blood. But if you wear this for a day, your kindness and power will be different, and your circumstances will be different.
Boshan is also bathed in this, how dare he not be surprised?"
Yu Wentai laughed again after hearing this, and motioned Li Tai to take a seat again: "Yes, even though we are all flesh and blood, there are also differences in intelligence, and the virtues should not be lumped together. Some people are soft on the outside but strong on the inside.
Some people are timid and timid, but some people are fierce in appearance and inwardly angry, and they become chaotic when faced with danger. I also know a little bit about Boshan's personnel from other people's mouths, and I just have time to see you today. Which category does Li Boshan think he should belong to? "
"The talent of a minister is shallow, as the Prime Minister can tell at a glance. If you present yourself, you must be pretentious, and you will inevitably deceive the wise."
Li Tai felt tired when he heard this. I just closed the book in Tong to provoke your Beizhen Yuan Cong, and you suppressed him. As for the one who said it with a gun and a stick? I'm not the one who really drove you out of the house.
I!
Yu Wentai couldn't hear what Li Tai was saying. After hearing what he said, he shook his head and smiled: "It's really difficult for you to ask this question. There are not many people in Guanxi, but seeing a talented person like Bo Shan makes me happy.
Out of proportion.
It's just that you said you are dedicated to righteousness without any sacrifice, which is not accurate. I also know a lot from the people's mouths about how much you work in the countryside. Those who work hard will be happy in life. If you are just a little fool, Gao Taiwei is afraid
It’s still in my arms today!”
When Li Tai heard this, he couldn't help but grinned. He immediately felt that it was disrespectful, so he quickly restrained his expression, lowered his head and said: "The Duke of Taiwei moved westward out of loyalty. This decision is far more decisive than many famous people in Dongzhou."
, but he is timid of thieves and the like. Bo Shan was fortunate enough to follow his subordinates and meet the British master, how dare he compare himself to the overall situation with a small weapon!"
When Yuwentai heard this, he burst out laughing: "You may not necessarily mean what you say, but it makes people happy to hear it. Boshan is not only talented, but also interesting. No wonder that a simple and cautious humane elder like Master Heba is willing to share his ideas."
You make friends."
Li Tai's mood was not as cheerful as Yu Wentai's. The conversation was so unequal that even when he heard Yu Wentai's praise, he had to turn it over in his mind several times to think about whether there was any deeper meaning that he had not understood.
In fact, Yu Wentai may not have so many thoughts, but he has already pointed out what he wants to do, so it is inevitable that he will feel guilty and make himself nervous.
"I summoned Lieutenant Gao the day before yesterday and found out that you stayed in Huazhou to work hard and did not go with me. How is this possible? I have been entrusted with state affairs by the king. Although the tasks are difficult, I must try my best to do a good job. How can I bear the turmoil?
Is there a bad comment about a virtuous person? So I immediately petitioned for the title. Although it is not called smart, it can be regarded as filling in the omissions."
When Li Tai heard this, he quickly avoided the table and thanked him. The feeling of being flattered came back: The leader is so busy and he is so busy with my personal matters. Why should I not be loyal to him?
"A talented person from a well-known family is always so courteous and cautious. Today we are not meeting in court, so there is no need to be so respectful. I, Beizhen Junmen, only seek to be sincere and sincere in dealing with people and things, and the same is true for teaching indoor children. I am not criticizing your tutor.
It’s complicated because you are really busy making a living and don’t have time to be considerate. Treating others simply is also considerate of yourself.”
Yu Wentai signaled Li Tai not to be too polite, and then asked: "After the Grand Parade, what new tasks has Boshan done in the countryside recently? Now that we have met in person, if you have any clever ideas that benefit the country and the public, let me know in person.
,Don’t let me ask other people about it again!”
When Li Tai heard these words, he immediately felt like "If you love me, just say it and don't make me guess anymore."
He was already prepared for this. After hearing this, he quickly took out the plan for rebuilding the Longshou Canal that he had kept on his body, respectfully presented it and then said: "The small tricks of the past are not worthy of big rewards. Boshan also always wanted to repay his kindness.
I donated money and have been living in the country for many months. I am deeply aware of the difficulties faced by local affairs. Recently I have been living in the country to lobby the local people, hoping that I can do something that will benefit the country and make it famous in the world."
Yu Wentai took the scroll and started reading. The more he read, the more serious his expression became. After a while, he raised his head and looked at Li Tai and sighed: "The former Su Shangshu praised Boshan as a great talent. I think this praise is too much, so
It's just a matter of skillful workmanship.
Now that I have seen this plan, I realize that your planning is rigorous and your plans are profound. What this book says is true? Can the old canal of Huazhou be rebuilt without any public money?"
"Thanks to the trust of the countrymen, I have been appointed to take charge of the affairs. Before entering the court to participate in the ceremony, the personnel gathering has been completed, and the work will be available before spring."
After hearing this, Li Tai quickly said that in fact, the actual progress of the matter has not been so fast, but his plan was written in detail and specific, down to the clear and orderly use of materials for each stage, which seemed to be serious. After all, as a social animal,
Who hasn’t painted a pie for Party A?
"Good, very good! There is no shortage of people who are diligent in doing things in the government. Those who can establish policies and establish things like Boshan will not disturb the lack of those who are superior. I lost Mangshan and gained this Boshan. God will not treat me badly! Come here.
, when you drink wine, you must drink it right here and now!"
Yu Wentai looked through the plan again, then laughed and slapped the table.
