Four hundred and thirtieth chapters suitable for all ages
Times may be changing again, this is the thought of many ministers today.
At this time, there are many people holding small meetings in private, and Master Xia's home is no exception.
Tonight, several people came in plainclothes, entered the Xia Mansion, and sat around in the outer study. These people were all very happy and congratulated Xia Yan one after another.
"Gui Zhougong made a good move and drove Zhang Fuking to the edge of the cliff with a few clever moves!"
"Brother Xia's calculations are exquisite, we admire him very much!"
"I never expected that Tsukasa would openly build a plank road and secretly visit Chencang, causing a storm in an inconspicuous place!"
These guests came up and praised Xia Yan one after another.
Everyone knows that if the chief assistant Zhang Fuking really falls, it will be a great benefit to Xia Yan!
After all, Master Xia wants to be the first assistant!
But Xia Yan, who was blushing all the time, looked a little embarrassed. There was no point in showing off in front of others, so he said frankly:
"I won't hide it from you! What happened today was Qin Dewei's arbitrary act. I didn't know about it and it had nothing to do with me."
Everyone who came to visit was shocked. Qin Dewei didn't communicate with Xia Yan in advance about such an important matter?
Everyone who can sit here knows Qin Dewei.
Two years ago, Qin Dewei, a young boy, came to the capital and defeated eight talented people with one man. He was also a righteous man with four irons. This is really impressive.
But in their traditional understanding, Qin Dewei is Xia Yan's sidekick, acting according to Xia Yan's orders.
So everyone was very surprised when they suddenly heard Xia Yan say this.
I even had some doubts, why didn't you, Officer Xia, win over such a powerful thug?
Xia Yan was also very distressed. Who would have thought that Qin Dewei would be such a person!
There were several reasons why he did not bring Qin Dewei back after he left in anger.
First, Master Xia believed in his heart that Qin Dewei came here for exam matters.
But the resources at his disposal are limited, and there are too many people asking for help, and he cannot take care of them all. Therefore, it is better to do less than to do more. Qin Dewei's departure is equivalent to giving up automatically.
Second, Master Xia is playing a "big chess" game, and he has great ideas about the imperial examination.
Seek to reach a mutual compromise with Zhang Shoufu before the palace examination, form a tacit understanding, and jointly distribute the palace examination rankings.
He was afraid that being in close contact with Qin Dewei, a sensitive person, would irritate the chief assistant, so he never thought about getting back Qin Dewei.
Third, it was Tianguan Zhongzai's pride that caused trouble. After all, Master Xia had been the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel for two years.
During this period, he had great power and manipulated personnel affairs, and he was flattered by others everywhere, so he had a "superior" mentality.
So Master Xia thought that Qin Dewei would ask for him sooner or later, so why bother to come to the door proactively?
Just wait until Qin Dewei begs for him, and then give him a good education.
But Xia Yan never expected that Qin Dewei would not ask for anything from him!
Is it difficult to take the proficiency test? Qin Dewei still passed the proficiency test without him!
Is the imperial examination going to be suppressed? Without him, Qin Dewei would have just killed the chief minister!
Even Xia Yan had heard about what happened in Nanjing last year. Qin Dewei did not need to ask for help at all, and he took care of the Minister of War in Nanjing.
So whether or not he helps Qin Dewei doesn't seem to have any impact. What is this called? Being strong without desire?
Thinking of this, Master Xia felt a little dissatisfied.
Could it be that for Qin Dewei, who is a dignified official in the civil service, he seems to be a dispensable role?
At this time, Xia Yan understood what Feng En said. Qin Dewei has a bit of a godly nature that "treats all things as a rotten dog".
Xia Yan also discovered that he may need Qin Dewei's help more now, if he still has the ideal of being the first assistant.
Because Qin Dewei has proven with his strength that as long as he wants to, he is a person who is really capable of tearing Zhang Shoufu apart.
And what Master Xia needs most now is such talents.
At this time, someone said: "Why don't Mr. Guizhou strike while the iron is hot and invite Qin Dewei here? Even if there was a lack of communication before, we can still discuss big plans together in the future."
Master Xia sighed in dissatisfaction: "This man is arrogant and arrogant. I was a little slow to him before, but he has never seen me again.
So I probably can’t invite him. After today, I’ll go find him in person.”
Everyone was surprised at first, you, the official minister, have wronged you like this?
But then I also understood that a talented person like Qin Dewei, who is also a poet, often has a weird temperament and is arrogant and domineering in everything, so he cannot be treated with common courtesy.
Can a person who directly rips off his first assistant when he feels unhappy be a normal person?
It's probably impossible to call him and leave immediately. If you send someone to summon him casually, you might be scolded away.
Immediately, someone helped Master Xia to save face: "Corporal Zhongzai Lixian, he is able to deal with talented people without hesitation, and he convinces people with his virtue. This is really the style of an elder!"
Everyone responded together: "Yes, yes."
Be tolerant to geeks, especially useful geeks, and don't be shabby! If he wants to be strong, then give him a strong character and a lot of meat!
Think of King Wen and Taigong, and then think of Emperor Kong Ming. As the saying goes, those who achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters!
Anyway, even if it is a loss of dignity, it is still the dignity of Xia Guan.
At this time, a servant ran over and said: "There is a scholar named Qin Dewei outside the door who wants to see the master! He also gave fifty taels of silver as a gift!"
Everyone: ""
Wucao! Qin Shiba, where is your masterful demeanor? Where is your celebrity style?
Everyone has been helping you figure out the image of Coats for a long time, but you came running over with money to give gifts!
No matter what others thought, the owner, Master Xia, suddenly felt a little surprised that Qin Dewei actually took the initiative to visit him!
He quickly ordered: "Please come in quickly!"
Not long after, Qin Dewei Shiran walked in, bowed to Xia Yan and said: "I am afraid that I will suffer injustice in the imperial examination, so I came to the boss to ask for justice!"
Xia Yan's surprise was doubled, Qin Dewei actually came to ask for help!
He was afraid that Qin Dewei would regret it, so he quickly agreed: "It's easy to say, it's all about recruiting scholars for the country, I will do my best!"
Qin Dewei saluted again: "Thank you very much!"
Master Xia gave him another kind support, "No need to be polite. As an official, I have the responsibility to select talents!"
Qin Dewei said with emotion: "If there are wise ministers like Mr. Lao in the court, I will feel more at ease when I am young."
As the atmosphere gradually increased, Xia Yan said in a familiar manner: "Why didn't you tell me what happened today in advance? So that I can be prepared and say a few words for you in the court."
Qin Dewei replied naturally: "Wansheng thought it was such a trivial matter and I was embarrassed to disturb the boss."
Xia Yan smiled and said: "There is no small matter involving the court! If you don't tell me, if there is a misunderstanding and an accident occurs, wouldn't it be a bad thing?"
Qin Dewei responded: "Definitely next time!"
Like a spring breeze, both the host and the guest are happy, suitable for all ages, it’s a joyful experience!
Until Qin Dewei was sent away, Master Xia suddenly felt something was wrong.
