Chu Qing felt strange because Tao Yao looked at him strangely.
Tao Yao also felt weird, because compared with Chu Qingyi, he suddenly felt that Tao Shaozhang was a bit unsavory.
As the saying goes, don’t be afraid of comparing goods with others, but be afraid of comparing yourself with others.
Lao Tao felt like he was in a mirror.
Not to mention rescuing victims and teaching arithmetic in the palace. After all, Tao Shaozhang didn't have that opportunity.
But there are two things that the two of them experienced at the same time and encountered together.
Let's go to Bei City to investigate the case. Let's go together. The result is, look at Chu Qing, he dares to do what he does, and he goes to the prison to stay in jail. What is that called? That's called being fearless in the face of danger, that's called being responsible. Think of this
However, Tao Yao then remembered that it was no wonder that Sun An would go to fish for people. The emperor's own army was in command, how could he not fish for people?
Look at Tao Shaozhang again, you can calm down if you dare to cause trouble. You were framed by the Li family and thrown into prison by Chu Qing. You came back crying and asked me to catch people. Think about it when you cause trouble.
what?
In addition to this matter, there is also the Li family.
Tao Yao didn't want to think about offending the Li family as well.
This is a cheap thing for you. You are the only one who can do it. You are the only one who is powerful. Impeaching the Li family in the court every day is like a serious illness. When I ask you, I will tell you that the worst case is death. When I ask you, the worst case is death. That's it.
Well, why are you impeaching the Li family just to die in front of the Li family? Then you can just hang yourself in front of Li Wenli's bed in the middle of the night and scare him to death.
Looking at Chu Qing again, he neither impeached nor shouted, and did not show his face. As a result, the Li family is now squatting neatly in the Qianqiying Yamen Office.
"Mr. Chu..." Tao Yao got a little excited: "You must have never been married."
Chu Qing sat up straight.
No matter how slow his reaction was, he could tell that this old man seemed to have some intention.
"As far as my uncle is concerned, this junior is never married."
Upon hearing the word "uncle", Tao Yao stroked his beard and laughed, as if he had won the first place in the square dance in the Happy Community.
"Okay, okay, I will also go to the Chu Mansion to visit your father Chu Wensheng some other day. I have also admired your father Chu Wensheng for a long time."
Chu Qing was also excited: "Uncle, you are too humble. My father often mentioned uncle. In the circle of literati in Dachang Dynasty, he was called a shallow bastard. There are elder brothers everywhere. But who is the leader of this literati? Who is the leader?
This is the most admired figure among Chinese scholars in Beijing. Guess what."
Tao Yao looked like he had eaten honey: "What's wrong?"
Chu Qing chuckled and looked at Changxian: "Your Highness is feeling it."
Changxian said solemnly: "Master Tao must be the biggest bastard in the capital."
Chu Qing: "..."
Tao Yao laughed heartily, and then... As soon as his laughter stopped, he realized that there was something wrong with what he said. He was laughing too early.
In fact, Changxian didn’t mean anything else. People in ancient times said that bastard was not a curse word. It had nothing to do with the wife always running around with other people. It just meant longevity. So many times Chu Qing always called someone a bastard. People didn’t understand it very well.
.
Chu Qing quickly smoothed things over: "In short, everyone in the capital knows about Master Tao's venerable face. There are so many scholars, why is there only one prince and young master, and so many famous scholars? When mentioning Master Tao, no one will raise their middle finger and praise me.
A role model for generations.”
Tao Yao waved his hands repeatedly: "False name, just a false name."
There are many things that need to be mentioned here. For example, things like marriage between a man and a woman need to be discussed by the elders of both parties. Tao Yao can just say a word. If we talk about it in depth, it will be a bit embarrassing. Besides, he is here for business.
Chu Qing stepped forward and gave Tao Yao some tea: "Master Tao, I came to visit today. I originally wanted to find Brother Shaozhang, but it's the same with you. After all, you are the helmsman of the Tao family. As the saying goes
Well, the sailing of the sea depends on the helmsman, and the growth of all things depends on the sun. You are the helmsman. After weathering the wind and rain, you lead the ship forward. You are the sun, the sun... uh... the sun that lacks the sun. In short, the Tao family must have said it to you.
Forget it, I’ll discuss it with you directly.”
Tao Yao waved his hand: "As my nephew said, naturally I am the one who makes the decision in the Tao family."
"Merchant, merchant's matter." Chu Qing sat back on the stool and put away his playful smile: "Your Majesty wants to inspect the tax, conduct a thorough investigation, and hand over the matter to Qianqiying and the Ministry of Household Affairs. I think the first step should be
Starting from the merchants in the capital, this junior wants to discuss with Brother Shaozhang."
When Tao Yao heard this, his face straightened and his expression was somewhat incomprehensible.
In fact, Chu Qing was also in the middle of the game and subconsciously ignored some issues.
When he goes to court every day, it seems that the emperor is dealing with many things, dealing with many things reported by his ministers, and also dealing with memorials, as if every minister is Huang Laosi's little helper.
In fact, this is not the case. What these "little helpers" do is daily work, that is, what they are expected to do.
In other words, everyone works for the emperor, but the emperor will never tell who will do what.
To put it more simply, if a doctor from the Ministry of Rites calms the people every day for more than ten years, the emperor may not even know his name.
But the emperor specially found a person and asked this person to pacify the people, just once. As long as the job is done well, the emperor will definitely remember this person.
Think about it again, one day, there is a vacancy for the Minister of Rites. There is a man whom the emperor remembers who only served the people once, and a man who has served the people for ten years but the emperor does not know whose name it is. Which of the two has a chance to rise to the top?
?
The answer is self-evident, they are all working, but some people do the work that is part of their job, and some people do the work that is specifically assigned by their leaders.
The Ministry of Husbandry belongs to the former, and it is a matter within the scope of duties. Chu Qing belongs to the latter, and it is a matter specially assigned by the emperor.
But now, Chu Qing ran to Tao Mansion to find Tao Shaozhang, which means many meanings.
This is Chu Qing, who wants to lead Tao Shaozhang to perform meritorious deeds!
Chu Qing definitely didn't think so, because he never thought about these things, but Tao Yao thought so.
Lao Tao was excited.
Xiao Chu, you are so righteous!
Listen to what others say, and discuss it with Brother Shaozhang. Be more polite and humble.
How could Tao Yao not know what his son was like? To put it mildly, his son was a fool. He rode a horse with a book boy and went to Xiao County, Li Mu’s territory, to investigate the family, and he did it two times in a row.
After being able to come back alive this time, Tao Yao felt that God was taking pity on his mentally retarded son.
Chu Qing came here specially and said that we were discussing what to discuss. He looked down upon his silly son too much.
Tao Shaozhang stood up suddenly, closed the door of the main hall, stared at Chu Qing, and spoke slowly.
"My dear nephew, it doesn't matter. Whatever the emperor personally tells you, Quanzi will definitely do his best."
Or it could be said that Lao Tao, the prince's young master, did not serve for nothing. He specifically emphasized what the emperor told him, so that his son would devote himself to it. This means that if there are any achievements in the future, Tao Shaozhang will have to take a share of the credit.
How could Chu Qing know so many twists and turns? He said sternly: "Brother Shaozhang is quite influential in the scholar community. I want to make the merchants stink. It's the kind of stink that makes a rat cross the street and everyone shouts to beat it."
Not audible.”
Old Tao looked confused: "Merchants have no reputation at all. I am also confused. What does tax inspection have to do with merchants?"
