The Palace of Peach and Plum

Although no one expressed closeness to Ling Wei, no one was too low in EQ to deliberately embarrass him.

So Ling Wei sits all afternoon, and no one disturbs him.

Moreover, the water at Ling Wei's hand is always full. Although it is cold, Ling Wei doesn't care about this, so the embarrassed person is helpless.

Ling Wei closed the information and saw that there was about half an hour left, and the people around seemed to be free, so he started to talk with someone.

Although the files were fairly detailed, after all, the paper-based materials were updated slowly, so Ling Wei decided to ask others for advice.

This person asked directly, and they couldn't pretend to be busy and ignore it.

Obviously offending people can only be done by fools.

Although the attitude was slightly cold, Ling Wei just didn't feel it. After several talks, Ling Wei really found someone who knew this well.

This person's surname was Qian and Qiong, and he was also promoted to the imperial examination. Qian Qiong's hometown is close to Yumen Pass in the northwest. When he was young, he liked to travel. He went to Ganzhou many times and wrote travel notes. Qian Qiong was admitted to the Jinshi in his thirties. Because he was a side branch of the auxiliary minister Qian Hu's clan, and the Qian family used martial arts to do meritorious services, and there was a shortage of literati, he helped him stay in the capital, and now he is the head of the household.

Because Qian Qiong is backed by Qian's family, although he respects his boss, he does not intend to please him. Before Ling Wei was left out of the cold, it was just because he didn't know him, and his colleagues had such a similar attitude, he just followed the public.

Although there are many people in the Ministry of Households, he is the only one who has been to Ganzhou. Although Qian Hu has already married and established a business, he can no longer travel around, but he still has fresh memories of the original scenery. Usually, few people talk to him about this. Now Ling Wei talked about this, which caused him to talk about it. After going back and forth, he got in touch with Ling Wei and had a good chat.

Ling Wei also learned some specific situations in Ganzhou from his words, and asked for a travel note he wrote to go back and read it slowly.

This Qian Qiong actually took the travel notes he wrote with him. It is estimated that he would give a copy when he met someone who was interested.

After Ling Wei went back and talked about this, Li Ying said, "Xie's family is too arrogant."

"However, Xie Shangshu's ability to do things is very strong. After he took up the post of the Department of Household Affairs, the Department of Household Affairs did a good job." Ling Wei said objectively, "Moreover, he didn't embarrass me very much. I do not mind."

Moreover, if the Xie family died like this, even if many of the Xie family's talents were good, the emperor could use it. But if their ill feeling in the hearts of the emperor exceeds their abilities, and there are other people who can replace them, it is time for the Xie family to be unlucky.

Today's emperor is very kind, and it is impossible to kill his son without killing the hero. But not killing does not mean not processing. The King of Han probably didn't have much trouble, the big deal was that he was reprimanded and downgraded to the throne, and the Xie family was unlucky.

I don't know what the Xie family thinks. The empress is highly respected by the emperor, and the prince is loved by the emperor. Both the empress and the prince are very stable.

Even if you seize the prostitute, you have to wait until the emperor is old, right? His Majesty the emperor has just entered middle age, and his body is very strong. No accident, there is absolutely no problem in living for another twenty or thirty years. The prince was around fifty at that time, right? To tell the truth, even if the Xie family really wanted to seize the protagonist, it would be more reliable to let Concubine Xie give birth to a little prince.

No matter what I think, I feel that Xie's actions are amazing now. It can only be said that I was fascinated by the glory and wealth and the merits of Conglong.

Ling Wei didn't take the Xie family seriously, but Li Yin secretly made a lot of trouble for the Xie family. This is something later.

When Ling Wei entered the palace, even though His Majesty the Emperor knew about his affairs in the household, he didn't think it was a big deal.

In his opinion, this is probably a bit of tempering for Ling Wei. If Ling Wei can't stand this, then there will be too many to stand it.

Obviously Ling Wei did better than he thought, otherwise he didn't complain, and gradually won the favor of some neutral officials in the household department. Except for those who were determined to please Xie Shangshu and those who were originally Xie Shangshu's lineage, other people's perception of Ling Wei was getting better and better.

These people knew Ling Wei's talents, but they were misled and misunderstood. Don't want to conflict with him, so stay away. Later, it was discovered that Ling Wei's character was humorous and free, which was completely different from the rumors, and it was indeed well-informed and knowledgeable, and was completely incompatible with his age. While feeling that the young man is terrible, he also recognized Ling Wei more and more.

Although there are people who are jealous, but the level is too far apart, and the age and background are very different, this jealousy dare not put it on the bright side.

When Xie Rong knew that Ling Wei was going to the household department, he specifically leaked the news to let his subordinates know that this person was at odds with him.

He thought that he was doing it quietly, and that Ling Wei must be young and energetic when he was young, and there would definitely be conflicts.

Can sue the emperor.

Unexpectedly, Ling Wei was not fooled.

Xie Rong had another plan in his heart.

So when Ling Wei came to the Ministry of Households again, he found a pile of materials piled up on the table where he was temporarily sitting.

"Since Master Ling has come to serve in the Ministry of Households, we still have to do something." An official smiled, "Master Shang Shu said, you can't understand it just by looking at it."

Ling Wei glanced around and did the billing? Don’t you hire someone to do the accounting? If it is an average scholar, how can it be done? Besides, it's still such a thick pile.

Although arithmetic was supposed to be one of the compulsory subjects for scholars, since the imperial examinations did not take this exam, scholars who entered the path of scholars basically did not learn it.

Those who take arithmetic and other subjects directly pass the examinations of various departments and become clerks. And things like settling accounts and technical guidance are all these people's business.

Roughly speaking, it is equivalent to the difference between a leader and an ordinary employee.

Ling Wei is a member of the household department, an official official who can go to court, and he shouldn't have come to settle things like this. But Xie Rong under the banner of letting him learn, if he refuses, he is wrong.

If Ling Wei can't, that would be even better. Although ordinary scholars don't learn arithmetic, but arithmetic is indeed one of the subjects prescribed by Confucianism. If you are not good at Ling Wei, then it proves that you are not that good.

Ling Wei looked at such a thick stack of ledgers and asked, "When can you say you will finish it?"

The little official said: "My lord said, this account book is worth five days. If Ling Master is not familiar with it, it will be fine in seven days."

Ling Wei nodded silently.

The little official looked at Ling Wei's face and went back to report very happily.

Xie Rong was very satisfied and promised to give the little official a more leisurely job.

Ling Wei should always be angry now, right? Is this to file a complaint, or do it bitterly, and then how can it be done badly?

Either way, he has good reasons to give the emperor eye drops.

What? You said Ling Wei can finish it? How could it be possible that even a skilled little official would have to spend seven or eight days staying up late and working overtime to read the books.

On the first day, as Xie Rong expected, Ling Wei went through the ledger very irritably, and he also wrote strange symbols on the paper, which seemed to be venting his anger.

After Xie Rong learned of it, he stroked his beautiful beard and was very satisfied.

The next day, Ling Wei brought a strange tool. A wooden frame is wearing wooden beads. What is this?

Because of Xie Rong's obvious embarrassment, the other colleagues in the household department who started to keep a distance from Ling Wei again, looked at Ling Wei holding that strange tool, and couldn't help but glance at him.

Ling Wei spread out the paper with the strange symbols, holding the strange tool, and fiddled with it. Throughout the day, the sound of fiddle with wooden beads rang in the room, and everyone was curious, like a cat's paw scratching in their hearts, and it was terribly itchy.

The next day, Ling Wei still clattered with that strange tool. Then, in the afternoon, he called the little official who brought him the information: "It's all done. You can check it."

"Okay..." The little official was taken aback for a moment, "What?!"

Ling Wei smiled: "It's all done, check it."

"Master Ling, are you kidding?" The little official couldn't help exclaiming.

Ling Wei continued to smile: "Is it a joke? You will know by checking."

The little official looked at the pile of books in a daze. Did Ling Wei ask others to help? But he guarded it specifically, and because these were all secrets, he didn't allow Ling Wei to take out even a piece of paper.

He can be sure that Ling Wei did not take the ledger out, nor did he bring any paper in. He was staring at Ling Wei at the risk of offending others.

Is this ledger written randomly?

"Since Jintang said it's done, check it."

As soon as Ling Wei looked up, he saw His Majesty walk in with a smile but a smile, followed by Li Ying with a frosty face and Xie Rong with the usual expression.

Ling Wei slapped his tongue. He was indeed a scholar. Apart from having trouble with himself and being stupid to support the King of Han with his heart, at least his joy and anger were indifferent, just like an old fox.

However, if it is an ordinary person, it is estimated that Xie Rong will really be cheated.

It's a pity that he was pitted in the face of me. Ling Wei thought quite narcissistically.

"See His Majesty, Long live my emperor, long live long live long live long live my emperor." The people in the room immediately knelt on the ground in fear.

Among them, there are only a few who can look up at the face of the sky. Most of them have either seen the emperor up close for the first time, or have never seen the emperor since the Enrong Banquet. The tension and surprise can be imagined.

"Flat body." Li Li fiddled with an abacus, and said, "Jintang, how did you study at the Ministry of Households? I will check and check whether you have embarrassed me."

Ling Wei got up quickly and said with a smile: "How can you shame your majesty. Everyone in the household department works very seriously, and the minister has learned a lot. Your majesty can ask your colleagues, the minister can learn quickly, absolutely nothing. Shame."

"Is this the account you made?" Li Li flipped through the account book again. "Check, if there are too many mistakes, I will teach you a lesson."

Ling Wei smiled.

He cheated, absolutely right.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Xie Shangshu led someone to check the accounts, and Ling Wei accompanied His Majesty the Emperor to chat and drink tea nearby.

Li Li smiled and said: "Why don't you come to complain if you have been bullied, but also Yingfei eagerly come to tell me?"

Ling Wei glanced at Li Ying, then followed with a smile: "To be honest, the minister hasn't felt bullied yet."

Li Li nodded: "That's right, even if I don't come this time, I guess you won't be bullied. But what is your tool?"

"Abacus." In order to open up children's thinking in the noble kindergarten where Ling Wei is located, abacus class is one of them. Although Ling Wei is not

Instructor, but also played a few.

If the abacus memorizes the formula, it is a problem for skilled workers. It doesn't matter to Ling Wei to recite formulas or something. He listened to it and remembered it.

Seeing that the teacher who taught the abacus started using an abacus, the calculation speed was no less than that of a calculator. Ling Wei was also very curious. He bought an abacus and often played with it.

After arriving in ancient times, it was impossible to find calculators or something. Ling Wei was dizzy looking at the account book, and he remembered abacus.

The abacus is actually very simple to make. After he told the carpenter about the general shape and purpose, the carpenter made a very exquisite abacus with a frame and beads carved for Ling Wei.

He thinks it is entirely a handicraft.

However, under his professor, the steward of the family and the palace and the accountant have all learned abacus, and the efficiency of the calculation has been greatly improved.

Ling Wei was also in the difficult environment of ancient times, successfully changing from a novice abacus who can only recite formulas to a skilled worker who is estimated to be about the same as the teacher who taught abacus at the beginning.

After Ling Wei introduced the use of the abacus, Li Li immediately felt that it was very valuable for promotion.

Whether it is the tables and data graphs used by Ling Wei before, or the abacus now, work efficiency can be greatly improved.

Li Li couldn't help but sigh, the wisdom of another Chinese nation cannot be underestimated. It is really sigh that such a powerful and brilliant country has been destroyed because of internal and external troubles.

However, what Li Li was a little depressed was that these things were very useful, but Ling Wei didn't seem to realize it at all. He didn't seem to take these credits at all, but used them silently.

Listening to Ling Wei said that he used foreign figures to record all calculations in the account book the first day, and when he returned at night, he asked the people to work overtime and use an abacus to do the calculations. The next day, he just took the abacus and checked the previously calculated account book again. Ling Wei was very proud of his witty cheating, and clamored to ask His Majesty the Emperor to give some rewards to encourage his wit.

And he didn't expect to give the emperor this useful thing first.

I really can't catch the point...

"Cheng Chengcheng, what do you want, let's talk." Li Li was upset by him, couldn't help but slapped his forehead, and was stared at by his brother.

Li Li patted his thigh: "I turned you back, so I dare to stare at your brother!"

Li Yin looked at the sky in silence.

Li Li's heart was immediately struck, and he didn't care about Ling Wei who was asking for a reward. He just slapped Li Ying. He started talking about bedwetting when he was a child, and he couldn't call back what he called at the border. His Majesty's words were full of bitterness in both words and words. He pulled his brother hard to grow up, and when he grew up, the soft and cute little brother turned into a cold facial paralysis. Obviously, when I was young, my elder brother followed me and the eldest brother cried when he wanted to hug or not. It's not filial!

Ling Wei looked at His Majesty the emperor who was spitting wildly, and looked at His Majesty Qin who was frowning and black-faced, couldn't help taking a step back.

Tsk Tsk, Li Yin also wets the bed when he was young! Also begged for a hug with His Majesty the Emperor! Black history is really black history. I beg your Majesty to continue to break the news, he can laugh at these dark histories for a lifetime, hum.

Li Li guessed that he was often depressed by Li Yin recently, so once the chat box was opened, he couldn't stop.

Ling Wei added tea to him twice.

When Xie Shangshu came out with the people who checked the accounts, His Majesty the Emperor was still teaching his unlovable brother with all his heart. It wasn't until Li Ying's face became so dark that His Majesty the Emperor shut up.

"What? Is it wrong?" His Majesty sipped his tea and frowned.

Just now, I spoke vigorously, but I didn't notice the smell of tea. Why is it so hard to swallow when I drink it now.

I'm used to drinking new loose tea. I can't drink the ground tea foam mixed with other seasoning tea.

"Ling Yuanwailang is brilliant, there is no mistake." Xie Rong smiled, "Congratulations to your majesty for getting a talent."

"Just settle the account, what kind of talent." Ling Wei was not humble yet, His Majesty was humble first, just like the elders whose children were praised by others, Xie Rong's expression finally fluctuated after hearing it.

He patted Ling Wei on the shoulder with satisfaction, and said: "The Ministry of Households is not just about accounting. Learn other things, especially laws and regulations, otherwise you don't know how to collect taxes. "

"Master Lao Shangshu." Ling Wei smiled and arched his hands at Xie Rong.

Xie Rong also smiled and said, "Jintang is welcome, the old man is half of Jintang's teacher."

Ling Wei: Shameless!

Obviously I am embarrassing people, and dare to say that it is half a teacher without shame! Ling Wei felt that his face was thick enough, and compared to Xie Rong, he seemed to be far behind.

It's really Shang Shu... and he still needs money from Hube Shang Shu...

Ling Wei felt that he couldn't be compared like this. So he wiped his face, and began to greet Xie Rong with a big smile. They talked from poems and songs to scripts, from piano, chess, calligraphy and calligraphy to firewood, rice, oil and salt, and from the philosophy of life to what to eat tonight. Seeing that harmonious look, no one would say that this is definitely a pair of year-end friendships.

"Ah, the two Aiqing really got along well." Li Li couldn't help but almost laughed. "But it's too late now, let's talk about it tomorrow."

The two of them continued to obey the emperor's will, and stopped talking nonsense.

"Tomorrow you will teach the people in the household department how to use this abacus." Li Li ordered.

"Abacus is just a small skill, if you adults are willing to learn, the ministers will naturally give it to each other in fear." Ling Wei replied, "Thank you, sir, see you tomorrow?"

"Ling Yuanwailang walk slowly." Xie Rong said kindly.

Xie Rong's face sank after the emperor Gongsong took Li Yin and Ling Wei away.

Now he had to admit that he really underestimated Ling Wei.

If Ling Wei hadn't gotten close to the prince and had already been taken as a confidant by the prince (the fat prince evolves the beautiful prince: looking back at a loss, who called me?), he would definitely appreciate this person.

Ling Wei is not only well-educated, but he is also much better than his peers. He is also very knowledgeable. It seems that he has a lot of experience, and he doesn't fall short of chatting with him.

Xie Rong remembered his nephew who complained about Tianyouren after losing to Ling Wei. Tianyou said that he could definitely beat Ling Wei, just because the prince was dark.

Box operation. It now appears that Xie Lin'an did not lose injustice.

In other words, Xie Linan was far behind Ling Wei. If you just talk about being a human being regardless of your knowledge, you can't keep up with even shooting a horse.

Xie Rong lowered his head, took the abacus left by Ling Wei, and dialed the wooden beads inside.

Originally wanted to let Ling Wei suffer in the household department, and it was not very useful to make the emperor look down on this person. But now, it seems that Ling Wei not only won't be deflated, on the contrary, he has been mixed up in the household. Now the emperor still wants him to teach people in the household department to use this thing called abacus, even if it is a small skill, but with a word of "teaching", it is human affection.

But speaking of it, this thing is indeed magical. The account book that a skilled little official can complete in seven or eight days can be completed in two days, and the efficiency of the household department can be greatly improved. In this way, when he gets busy, he can also get things quickly, so as not to block the doors of other departments to ask for money every day.

Xie Rong was also very tired holding the country's money bag.

If the efficiency of the household department can be improved, it is also a good thing for Xie Rong.

"Ling Jintang is indeed a good person." Xie Rong was cherishing his talents. I don’t know if this person can be brought to his own boat?

Xie Rong thought about the emperor's importance to Ling Wei (now he really admits that it is important), and he felt more and more that this person should be used for himself.

Mention it when I meet with Han Wang another day. After all, Han Wang should have a more common language with Ling Wei than the unborn child of the prince.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Over there Xie Rong made up the idea of ​​wooing (although it may not work), and here Ling Wei has begun to whine and complain that this old fox is really not easy to get along with.

"If Xie Rong is not an old fox, the emperor will not let him be in charge of the household department." The emperor left, and Li Yin's words began to increase. He is still very conscientious."

Ling Wei nodded clearly. It's the same reason as your own bad-headed scumbag, a qualified general, right?

"It's a pity." Ling Wei sighed, "Why are they so unconscious? How sad this makes your Majesty."

Li Yin was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "If everyone thinks so with Jintang, there won't be so many things."

Seizure... After the first emperor's affairs, how could someone hit this muzzle?

How could the imperial brother who was once tortured by his concubine and concubine, tolerate the seizure of his concubine under his nose?
