Chapter 6: Mr. Liang, you don't want to serve the country without a way, do you?
"I came to you today for myself, not for Nangong Ning."
Duan Yunxiu got straight to the point, looked at Liang Xiao who nodded with a smile, and asked: "Can we have dinner with you? I'll treat you."
Liang Xiao said without hesitation: "What an honor!"
Duan Yunxiu took advantage of Liang Xiao to wash up and invited Jiang Fuxue to come with him, but Jiang Fuxue declined.
After Liang Xiao followed Duan Yunxiu and walked away, grandma sighed: "Young lady should follow you. With the young master's nature, he may offend Mr. Lin. He will look like a rich man."
Jiang Fuxue shook his head and said: "Brother, after he got drunk, he cheered up and behaved calmly. I'm afraid that it will cause trouble if I'm here!"
Grandma was noncommittal, with deep worry in her eyes.
The capital is full of dignitaries. After he became a criminal, he had many difficulties in developing in the capital. He also drank and made trouble...
In the inn, Duan Yunxiu ignored Liang Xiao's dissuasion and ordered the signature dishes one by one.
The table is full of delicacies from mountains and seas.
Liang Xiao looked around and found that there was only one table of customers. Then he looked at the submissive waiter and asked, "Have you booked this inn?"
"This inn belongs to my friend's house. I borrowed it for use. I don't like outsiders to disturb me." After Duan Yunxiu finished speaking, he urged Liang Xiao to have dinner with him.
It wasn't until Liang Xiao started eating that Duan Yunxiu asked: "Three rays of sun, moon and stars are actually the daughter of Dingguo Houfu, the most talented girl in the capital, Mu Qinxue. I told her your second line, and she admired it very much."
Talent.”
Seeing that Liang Xiao just nodded silently with a mediocre response, Duan Yunxiu asked tentatively: "The Dingguo Marquis' Mansion is more prominent than the Zhenyuan Marquis' Mansion, and they are recruiting a son-in-law recently. Do you have any ideas?"
Liang Xiao flatly refused.
"My master adopted me for more than ten years and gave me several thousand taels of silver just so that I could serve the country and glorify the Liang family. I will pay back all the money. If I become a son-in-law again, he won't slap me.
Use your tendons to peel off my skin?"
Duan Yunxiu's eyes lit up: "Does your respected master have a name?"
"Zi Bi Xianyun Yehe, I am not allowed to mention his name to outsiders casually." Liang Xiao replied.
Duan Yunxiu looked regretful, suppressed the curiosity in his heart, and asked: "Then how do you plan to develop in the future?"
"Doing business."
"Business?" A look of disappointment appeared on Duan Yunxiu's face, "After you become a businessman, it will be difficult for you to enter the officialdom. How can you honor your ancestors?"
Liang Xiao smiled and said: "If I am determined to be an official, it would be nice to buy an official title when the time comes."
Hearing this, Duan Yunxiu and his entourage were stunned and felt unhappy at the same time.
In front of the princess, you said you wanted to buy an official title?
There were times when the imperial court sold officials and titles, but that was because of financial constraints and it was a last resort!
Buying an official position is never a glorious thing, but he said it so lightly?
Duan Yunxiu felt something was blocked in his heart.
Was it disappointment? Or anger? Or confusion? She couldn't tell clearly.
Unexpectedly, Liang Xiao said again: "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. If you really want to serve the country, what if your official position is bought?"
Is every man responsible for the rise and fall of the world?
"I see!" Duan Yunxiu finally felt a little better and said angrily, "You don't necessarily have to buy an official position to be an official..."
Liang Xiao smiled and said: "It seems that you still don't know. After I am a guilty minister, my Liang family is still the most despised general among the literati. Do you think the civil servants in the court will allow me to obtain a meritorious degree or join the army?"
Upon hearing this, the complex emotions in the master and servant's hearts disappeared, replaced only by guilt.
It turns out that he had no way to serve his country, so he had to choose another way?
After Duan Yunxiu figured it out, he sighed: "At the beginning of the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, there were many wastes waiting to be revitalized. Emperor Gaozu also sold his official position to win titles... With your talent, you may be able to have a place in the officialdom in the future. Although the current emperor is a daughter, you can
He also listens to advice like a stream and is a wise king."
"It's not important, I just want to make money now." Liang Xiao pouted.
"Why is it not important?" Duan Yunxiu asked, feeling disappointed.
Liang Xiao said: "Now there are a large number of refugees from other places even in the capital, let alone outside. You also said that the Holy Lord is a wise king, so why can't she settle all the refugees in the capital and can only give porridge every day? Isn't it because
There is no money in the treasury.”
"Indeed..." Duan Yunxiu sighed on the surface, but the disappointment in his heart turned into surprise.
This guy can actually get to the point of things like refugees, which shows that he cares about national affairs!
"Then what does this have to do with your business?" The attendant finally couldn't help but ask, but was stopped by Duan Yunxiu.
"I understand, Mr. Liang hopes to get rich through business and, if necessary, help the country in the future." Duan Yunxiu sighed.
Liang Xiao just smiled and nodded, already having an opinion in his mind.
This follower has a steady pace and sharp eyes. He is obviously a top expert, and his identity is probably not simple either.
Servants from wealthy families are generally not qualified to interrupt in such situations.
But now he is only focused on deceiving Lin Duan into his pirate ship.
Duan Yunxiu looked at Liang Xiao who was eating and couldn't help but admire: "I didn't expect that you care about the people of your country and your country, and you also care about the refugees."
At this moment, Liang Xiao suddenly raised his head, with tears in his eyes!
Duan Yunxiu was shocked and moved beyond measure, and the followers behind him couldn't help but be moved.
He was worried about the country and the people, and he still treated the refugees like this, which shows that he loved Zhou deeply...
Just when Duan Yunxiu was thinking about how to comfort Liang Xiao, Liang Xiao wiped away tears, turned around and roared: "Shopkeeper, why do you put so much spicy food in this roasted fish!"
"Sorry, sorry." The shopkeeper hurriedly came over to apologize, but was dismissed by Liang Xiao.
Duan Yunxiu was immediately speechless.
It turns out that this guy's tears were caused by choking on the chili pepper...
After Liang Xiaomeng took a few sips of clear soup, he said to Duan Yunxiu: "Your Majesty is a woman, but she is responsible for the people of the Zhou Dynasty and has to take care of everything. How can we, a man like a man, be like a dog? We must keep your Majesty in our hearts and solve your problems for you.
We will strive for the welfare of the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty throughout our lives..."
Liang Xiao drank the chicken soup vigorously and looked at Duan Yunxiu, whose eyes were reddened by emotion, feeling satisfied.
First establish the patriotism, then you can be invincible!
Duan Yunxiu felt a sore nose. After calming down, he said: "You have such ambitions, but people outside always slander you..."
Liang Xiao said with emotion: "Others laugh at me for being too crazy, but I laugh at others because they can't see through it!"
Duan Yunxiu couldn't help but praise the case: "Well said!"
But soon, Duan Yunxiu realized his gaffe and said quickly: "You will become a great person in the future, but the main reason why I came to you is not to talk about state affairs. What you said yesterday, 'Autumn has been a sad and lonely time since ancient times.
I say that the autumn sun is better than the spring morning. It is unique and has won my heart. This is obviously the whole poem, and I hope you can complete it."
Seeing Liang Xiao fall into silence, Duan Yunxiu smiled and said: "As long as you can write the whole poem, I am willing to pay for it. Mr. Liang, you don't want to be unable to serve the country because you have no money, right?"
Liang Xiao was shocked!
"Then, Mr. Liang, I leave you with the task of writing poems!"
