Ken lost his temper, and responded with a smile: "This is my Xie Xun Xie Ziwang, the servant of Zhongshu."

Xie Xun bowed to pay his respects when he heard the words, but he heard Lun Bo Zang sigh: "Looking all over our country, there is no courtier as special as Xie Xianggong. The kingdom of heaven is really grand."

It was clearly a frivolous and rude remark, but Jiaolun Bozang expressed his sincerity with a sincere exclamation on his face. Liu Hongci knew that Lun Bozang's previous words were confused by Jiaoxie Xun's appearance, and the unhappiness he aroused was easy Sweeping it all away, I couldn't help but smiled and said: "You don't have to feel sorry for the prime minister. You should know that even if I am in court, I will never be able to find a second Mr. Xie."

Xie Xun has always been a humble person, seeing that Lun Bozang's next words were neither humble nor overbearing and his words were polite, he stood quietly by the side of Liu Hong's words.After Lun Bozang exchanged greetings with Liu Hongci, when he was about to go to the side hall under the Zhongshu Gate, Xie Xun raised his eyelashes, and suddenly said: "Actually, the Prime Minister should not regret not seeing a beautiful woman. I am a great Chumin Yin Guofu The people in Qingcheng don't know how many people there are, and they can always teach the prime minister to bring one back."

Lun Bo Zang thought of something when he heard the words, suddenly his expression became serious, and he said seriously: "Xie Xianggong was joking, I am in the state funeral, according to the regulations, you are not allowed to take wives and concubines."

Xie Xun understood, lowered his eyes again, and followed Liu Hongci in.

The Prime Minister from Tubo is going to Chang'an to pay his funeral.

For a while, the host and guest knelt on the chairs in the lower hall of Zhongshumen. Liu Hongci personally poured a cup of hot tea for Lun Bozang, and said with a smile: "The prime minister just arrived in Chang'an yesterday, and he must have been exhausted by boat and car, so I will wait for you." Don’t dare to disturb each other. Today, I hastily invited the Grand Minister to come to this Zhongshu by the order of the sage. I didn’t prepare wine and food to entertain guests. I hope the Grand Minister will not blame you. I don’t know why the Grand Minister came all the way?”

Lun Bo Zang really said: "Your country's Princess Yong'an lost her husband and son-in-law in April last year, and she is supposed to return to the country, but Princess Chang and our country's current Zanpu Qinling Mausoleum are two-sided, and they have already become Qinling Zanpu's mother-in-law. At the end of the day. Many veterans in our country felt that it was really out of place, and they all protested. Zanpu couldn't argue with them, so he simply sent me to bring cattle, sheep, silverware and jade to Chang'an, and ask your Majesty what you mean. In fact, according to our What Zanpu means is that he can persuade the princes in the court to speak to the sage and keep Princess Yong'an in Tubo. When I came, I ordered someone to send some local things from Tubo to the princes to enjoy, and I hope the princes don't dislike."

He made his future intentions so clear, Liu Hongci subconsciously glanced at Xie Xun, but saw Xie Xun silently drinking a sip of tea, with no intention of speaking.

Liu Hong's heart inevitably became a little subtle.

In the previous dynasty, after Li Qian eradicated the powerful eunuch Jiang Zhenji, she gave Feng Zhaofu the post of privy secretary who had always only been appointed by eunuchs, and everyone knew the reason behind it.But now the chief minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Xie Bi, is cautious in dealing with people, and since Li Jue came to power, although Wentuo Feng Zhaofu and Yang Gongshan, Wu Laiyu Yannian and several high-ranking generals have been consulted about everything, the matter of Huangmen has not He was cautious, not only promulgated three decrees restricting the power of servants, but also inherited Zhaozong's mountains and forests, and completely changed the Privy Council, which used to only appoint eunuchs, into a place where scholars were appointed.As a result, the Privy Council, which is in charge of documents, has become another Imperial Academy.

After several dynasties of struggle between the inner and outer dynasties ended with the decline of eunuchs, the contradictions that had been tolerated in the outer dynasties were gradually brought to the fore.

Today is a ready example.It would be fine if Xie Xun remained silent as he is now, but Liu Hongci and Xie Xun have been officials in the same dynasty for several years, so he knows his temper very well.Xie Xun is a mean person by nature, but he is born to treat outsiders with courtesy, so that people can't pick out the slightest mistakes from the bright side, and he has to sigh for Mr. Xie's good looks.If Liu Hongci hadn't suffered from him before, I'm afraid he would have to hide his gentleness.

Liu Hongci was amazed by Xie Xun's methods, but also afraid of his youth - Xie Xun's years of worship were only 29 years old. Although it was because of the special love of the emperor, it was also because of Xie Xun's talent.Such a person, presumably if they were not political enemies, he would not have to bother so much.

But that determination is unsolvable.

Xie Xun came from the Xie family in Chenjun, and moved his family to Chang'an because his father was an official. Behind him was the Hongnong Yang family supported by Taifu Yang Gong, who was not from a rough and poor family like him.Besides, the Xie family in Chenjun now has the queen Xie Yi, and they are even more at odds with Feng Zhaofu, the uncle of today's saint. Liu Hongci thought to this point, knowing that he should not be the first to express his attitude this time anyway, so he tilted his head to Xie Xun and said with a smile : "What do Mr. Xie think?"

These words sounded really kind, Xie Xun smiled slightly, put down the teacup in his hand and said in harmony: "Although a certain is a minister, he is young and inexperienced, how can he decide such a big matter, of course we have to listen Liu Xianggong's high opinion."

Liu Hongci's heart was moved when he heard the words, but he immediately realized that he clearly meant that he didn't want to take responsibility.Xie Xun acted according to his own preferences, now that Tubo Prime Minister is here, everything is more sensitive, if he taught Xie Xun to grasp any mistakes in foreign affairs, he would definitely suffer again.He was secretly angry at Xie Xun's cunning, but he couldn't refute his reason for refusal, so he fell silent for a while.

Lun Bo Zang was able to occupy the position of Prime Minister last year because he supported Qinling as Zanpu.Therefore, although he is proficient in martial arts, he does not know much about civil governance. Even though he is proficient in Chinese, he has not been able to teach him the ins and outs of the court. These people's sly dogs, now seeing the two lords on the opposite side, one shirks and the other is silent, only saying that they are deliberating, then laughed again: "Of course the lords don't look down on gold and jade, there are still many rare herbs in Tubo that may be used together. View."

In this way, the matter was actually made clear.However, Liu Hongci remained silent.

Xie Xun who was sitting at the side glanced sideways at Liu Hongci, seeing the looseness between his brows, couldn't help but sneered from the bottom of his heart, thinking to himself that this person really came from a humble background, even if he became Zaifu, he was still so useless.

When Xuan Yi, Duke of the State of Wei in the former Dynasty, had not yet taken up his official position, he used to wear crimson gauze under his door.His mentor, Xuanyi, was born to be a man of life, and impatient with current affairs, which is completely different from Yang Gongshan's integrity and uprightness. However, his mentor's talent and learning are rare among the officials of the dynasty, not to mention the current dynasty, but the number of times ahead Three dynasties, but also to see who can stand out.It's just such a person, and he couldn't find a satisfactory student among the Jinshi candidates in the year of his scientific examination.It was still when Qujiang was drinking water, Li Qian stood by the bank of Qujiang and said to Xuanyi with a smile on her side: "Don't be too picky, Aiqing. If you don't want students for a year or two, it means that there are no successors. I can pay you back." I want to point out that you have taught me a minister of ministers."

Xuan Yi at the side tilted her head, looked at the front row of new scientists waiting to become officials, and casually pointed at one person: "That's all, the appearance is still eye-catching."

That is Xie Xun.

The number one scholar in the third year of Yongsheng was Fan Gong who was born in Qinghe. Although Xie Xun was not as young as he was, he was not too old. Said: "Could it be that Duke Wei judges an official by appearance?"

These words were indeed a bit rude, but Xuan Yi smiled lightly, and jokingly replied, "That's right."

If saying this could barely be regarded as a naughty joke used to gag him after being offended, then Li Qian couldn't help but look sideways at what he said next.

At that time, the flowing water on the banks of the Qujiang River was gurgling, and the students in that row could only hear Xuanyi's harsh words: "The truth is that the Xuan family is from Qingzhou, and Xie Ziwang is from the Xie family from Chen County. I don't know what county Wang the champion is? "

Since the founding of the Great Chu Dynasty, the aristocratic family has declined, but because they have inherited the shadow of their ancestors and entered the court as officials, they gradually regained the momentum of blooming flowers.But even so, Xuanyi, as the prime minister, should speak and act according to the style of the temple, no matter what, she should not utter bad words, but when she said this, several poor scholars couldn't help but blushed, their eyes Show anger.

Seeing this, Xuan Yi suddenly smiled, and said to Xie Xun, "What does Zi Wang think?"

Xie Xun has just been crowned, because he is the youngest son in the family, he has been pampered, and at that time, the elder sister Xie Yi has been favored by Li Qian to become a princess, and her status is even more different.He was not alarmed when he heard Xuan Yi's question, he just bowed in accordance with etiquette and said: "A later student once read a book saying: 'Those who abandon themselves, you can't do anything.' After reading it, I deeply think it." Not wanting to say anything more, the smile in Xuan Yi's eyes deepened when she heard it, and she waited until Xie Xun went to the Duke's mansion to visit him for the first time, and then said: "The Zhuangyuan Lang said well that day, but now I regret it. Xue's temperament is too harsh, and I'm afraid he is not a person who can be a prime minister."

Fortunately, Xuanyi just said that, and she still taught him how to deal with things in the future, and recommended him to Yang Gongshan.

At that time, Liu Hongci was the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and had the title of Jiaping Zhangshi. Because he was also a Jinshi from a poor family, he was ashamed to hear Xuanyi's remarks on the banks of the Qujiang River, so he wrote a letter and ordered Xuanyi to inappropriate words and deeds.In order to appease Liu Hongci's courtiers who took the imperial examination, Li Qianlanbi selected many Jinshi to be the school secretary, and released Xuanyi's nephew Xuanchen to be the secretary of the feudal town.Seeing his words and deeds, Xie Xun couldn't help sneering, he just felt that this person was really jumping from one place to another, he didn't make a difference, he looked at those school clerks coldly for several months, found some faults and impeached them, and actually drove them out of ten.

This incident reached Xuan Yi's ears, although he didn't think so, he also taught Xie Xun.

"It's just a lost east corner." Xuanyi laughed, "What about the mulberry elm that you can't harvest? Besides, you regard Liu Hongci as a self-abandoner, so it's fine if you don't want to make friends with him. Just don't make enemies with him. You must know that a gentleman is evil." If you live in a low class, all the evil in the world will come to you. That’s all for now, but what will happen in the future?”

Up to now, although Xie Xun is still
