Chapter 14 Return to the Court [From now on it will be the court line! ]
"Sir, is tomorrow the day you will be reinstated?" Song Shi asked as he packed his clothes. He was also wearing the most beautiful clothes that he was most satisfied with.
"I don't know, but this is the fifth time you've asked this question this week." Su Jinghe raised his head and asked sincerely, "Don't you have a job?"
"No." Song Shiyi had worked under Su Jinghe for two years, but he still hadn't learned what it meant to slack off appropriately or be lazy reasonably. He answered quite sincerely at this time.
"That's great. You'll be responsible for the calculations here."
Before Su Jinghe could say anything, a stack of things fell from the sky and landed in Song Shiyi's hands. He Yun came with his spare workload.
"Huh? No?" Song Shiyi was once again overwhelmed by the workload.
After he left, Wang Wenjun also came over.
"Why has he been asking you this over and over again these days? I heard from He Yun that this guy was originally a spy sent by someone else?"
"He must have gotten the information from his superiors." After Su Jinghe put the fine kiln factory on the right track, he gradually got used to his current life. He didn't have to get up early, and he could communicate with his superiors entirely on his own. It was really wonderful.
Although the money from the kiln factory could not go into his pocket, the salary was quite good. It was a perfect job with high pay, little work, and close to home.
Plus...
"The factory has been so busy lately. If I leave and he leaves too, can you two hold on?"
Su Jinghe looked at Wang Wenjun and He Yun with concern. After nearly a year of adjustment, everyone knew each other's abilities well. The current work could be completed by four people sharing it. If two were missing, then...
"Don't worry, if you really get promoted, someone will definitely come in, and we will have help then." He Yun was already crying loudly, but it was Wang Wenjun who comforted the two of them.
Su Jinghe thought about it and quickly rummaged through the drawers. He found the biscuits he brought yesterday but didn't eat, the pickled vegetables he brought last month, and the half-drawn blueprint for a new cup style that hadn't been used yet. He found a lot of things bit by bit, like a puppy moving house.
"Come on, share what you can use!"
"If you don't leave, I'll bring it to you again." He Yun sobbed and took a long time to recover.
Su Jinghe ignored him as a crybaby and started chatting with Wang Wenjun.
"Is your brother going to die this year?"
If I remember correctly, Wang Anshi seemed to be in 1042. Has this issue been released?
Su Jinghe had no idea what was going on, but he prayed it wouldn't happen.
Oh, it’s really daunting to have a student taking the exam at home.
I don’t know if my uncle can pass the exam this time.
Su Jinghe felt that although he was young, he was already living the life of middle age, worrying about being laid off at the age of 35 and worrying about his children failing the exams.
This feeling of worry only intensified when I got home.
"Brother, what did you learn in school today?"
"I didn't study today. I have an exam today."
Yes, when Su Jinghe heard this, he remembered that today was the first day of the new year. It was similar to the modern daily tests, weekly tests, monthly tests, midterm tests and final tests. The Northern Song Dynasty also had daily tests, monthly tests and quarterly tests. The private school that his eldest nephew Su Jingxian attended also had tests on the first and fifteenth days of the new year.
As I was listening, I heard a violent coughing sound coming from inside.
“Cough cough cough!”
not good!
Apart from his uncle's imperial examination, Su Jinghe was most worried about the health of his eldest nephew.
However, in history, my younger uncle failed the exam, and my eldest nephew also passed away this year.
But don’t…
When Su Jinghe heard the cough, he rushed in and saw the little guy laughing at him.
"Hey, you got tricked, didn't you?" Su Shi put his hands on his hips, his little nose, which looked less than a meter long, cracked, and his laughter was so loud that it could be heard from two miles away. "Happy get-off-get off work!"
"Happy get-off-get off work day, cough cough." Su Jingxian is eight years old now and looks much calmer, if you ignore the fact that he just participated in deceiving Su Jing and the coughing sound he made now.
"Why are you coughing? Let's go to the clinic." Su Jinghe was about to go out with his eldest nephew, but was stopped by Su Xun who came back with a book.
"The child has a cold, it's okay, go home and drink some ginger soup, he will be fine soon." Su Xun didn't know the future and didn't take it seriously.
Su Jinghe rolled his eyes and squatted down to look at Su Shi. "Do you want to go out for a midnight snack? Didn't you say you would treat us last time? You treat, I'll pay, and we'll eat with your brother."
“I don’t spend money?” “Yes, you don’t spend money.”
When little Su Shi heard this, an idea came to his mind immediately. He looked at Su Xun's back and asked sincerely, "Sister, do you want to go have a midnight snack with us? Don't bring daddy with you."
Su Xun immediately turned around, and before he saw anyone, he started to act coquettishly to his wife, "Don't leave me alone, let's go eat together, don't bring these people."
After saying that, I realized that there was really no one behind me.
When I turned around again, the three people who were originally standing in front of me had also left.
"Huh? No? Where are all the people?" Su Xun broke down on the spot.
"What's wrong?" At this moment, the wife's voice really came from behind. Cheng Jiamin looked at Su Xun who was going crazy, and wondered if her husband had gone crazy.
That night, Su Xun learned that Su Jingxian had been prescribed a diet therapy prescription by the doctor to nourish his body. Su Shi complained that he had stopped his uncle from taking his brother to see a doctor, and Su Xun was scolded again.
——
"Sir, that man went to the clinic today."
"What? Wasn't he fine during the day?" Lu Yijian was shocked when he heard the word "clinic". He heard his brother say during the day that he wanted to invite Su Jinghe out for dinner and drinks on his day off, so how come he heard about going to the clinic at night?
The visitor realized his statement was inaccurate and quickly added, "It wasn't him. He went with a child. The child seemed to have some health problems. The doctor had a serious expression. It sounded to me like he prescribed a long-term diet and bought a lot of medicine."
Lu Yijian stood up, paced back and forth, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.
"Sir? Do you want me to buy some medicine and send it over?" The visitor also wanted to help his master, so he came up with an idea. Of course, he had even bought some in preparation.
"He needs to buy medicine, but it's okay this way. He has someone at home to take care of, so it's normal to transfer him back. Although the kiln factory makes money, it's very busy and there's no time for him to take care of the children."
Lu Yijian's words shocked the secret guards.
It is said that there were many people who just did nothing in the court of the Song Dynasty in the past, but now they have been almost all purged. There are no positions left for people to relax, right?
"Or I can arrange it...you can go down first."
Before the secret guard could hear the rest of the words, he was sent away by Lu Yijian.
The next day, Su Jinghe received a notice from his former boss Zhang Dexiang, asking him to hand over his work and come back to continue working.
"Ahhh! No!" He Yun started crying again when he heard this news.
"Sure enough." Song Shiyi nodded at first, then remembered something, became a little stiff, and began to empty his mind.
Wang Wenjun, who was standing next to him, suddenly asked, "What's wrong? Didn't anyone call you back?"
"Yeah, why didn't anyone call me... No, um, I just said it wrong, I meant I don't have any work today, is there anything you can let me do?" Song Shiyi made excuses awkwardly, trying to defend his vest that everyone knew had been stripped off.
Everyone cooperated in coaxing him and maintained their composure.
But it’s not that they didn’t call him, it’s just that he hadn’t arrived yet. When Su Jinghe went to court again, he saw Song Shiyi in the court.
Right next door to him.
"It wasn't you before?" After many days, he had to go to court again, but the person next to him was replaced. Su Jinghe thought he was dizzy.
"He's in jail." Song Shiyi's answer was not loud, but it was quite powerful.
When Su Jinghe arrived, what he heard was no small matter.
The person who made an impassioned speech in the court this time was not Fan Zhongyan, but he was also an acquaintance.
Right Censor Han Qi, like Fan Zhongyan when he sued Lü Yijian, straightened his back and spoke in a resounding voice, "Prime Minister Wang Sui... Vice Minister Han Yi..."
The Khan was recruiting soldiers and mentioned the names of the people's bad deeds. Every word he said sounded sincere and heartfelt. If Su Jinghe had the power to make the decision, he would have wanted to make the decision and arrest these four people on the spot.
There were also those who were not moved by the irrefutable evidence or the deep sincerity of the love. The four of them were still struggling like grasshoppers in autumn.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my loyalty to the Song Dynasty is evident to all. How could I be the kind of person who abuses his power for personal gain? Your Majesty, his evidence is forged." This is Han Yi.
"Your Majesty, natural disasters are beyond human control. I have done my best!" This is Wang Sui who is trying to play the emotional card.
Some of the four people looked pale and dared not say a word, but the noise made by the three of them was enough to make this morning court exciting.
[This is really interesting. It turns out that the "Four Prime Ministers" story doesn't just happen once a piece of paper falls. There's also a process of argumentation. It's great, I love it, watch more!]
Su Jinghe was so excited that his inner voice leaked out again, but he didn't expect that the plot he wanted to see disappeared on the spot.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty. I only beg Your Majesty to spare my wife and children." Han Yi, who had just been arguing that he had not abused his power for personal gain, seemed to have regained his sight and could hear what Han Qi said again, and he actually confessed his guilt on the spot.
ah?
Su Jinghe was shocked, but he found that the others were surprisingly calm, as if they had completely accepted these sudden changes.
[No? Huh? Brother, isn't that what you just said? The morning court is so long, can't you say a few more words?]
I used to like listening to the teacher bragging in class, but now I like watching my colleagues quarreling in court.
Su Jinghe still hasn't changed his hobby, but it's a pity that his colleagues don't give him this opportunity.
Beside him, Song Shiyi sighed quietly.
Why change? Isn’t it all because of you?
Someone single-handedly changed the court without realizing it.
How could there be such a lucky person! Song Shiyi was envious.
Su Jinghe below was in a state of confusion, while Song Renzong on the stage, looking at this familiar face, felt mixed emotions.
He spent more than a year to purge the court, and also used this time to verify the authenticity of Su Jinghe's abilities, as well as... his dangerousness.
It's terrifying. One can know everything about the world without leaving home. There are even some things that no one else knows except the person involved. Some people believe that such ability belongs to God himself.
However, the possessor of such ability also carries a hint of danger. Anyone who tries to attack him will fail "accidentally" and encounter an accident. Instead of assassinating Su Jinghe, he will die.
The boutique kiln factory was thriving, so naturally, some people attacked Su Jinghe, the fledgling boy. Without exception, they were either killed or injured, including not only the attackers but also the mastermind behind the scenes.
Why.
Song Renzong sighed silently. What a wonderful ability! If only he could possess it...
Forget it, fortunately Su Jinghe is loyal to the Song Dynasty and is not a bad person.
There are many things to say at the morning court, especially the frequent disasters last year. For example, the downfall of these four people was also their responsibility, but they completely failed. If they could be of some use, it would not be completely useless.
After talking about all sorts of things, Song Renzong finally said the most important thing, which was the news he wanted to hear from Su Jinghe.
"Li Yuanhao broke away from the Song Dynasty and founded the Great Xia Kingdom."
In fact, Song Renzong and Lu Yijian had discussed this in advance. They wanted to keep it secret for the time being, but it was also a good opportunity to verify whether the use of the artifact had any spatial distance.
What Song Renzong did not expect was that Su Jinghe reacted so strongly to this.
[What? Li Yuanhao, Xia… isn't that Xixia? Ahhh Xixia? Damn, Xixia is showing up?!]
And then, and then, you say something?
The court almost held its breath waiting for Su Jinghe to continue, but...
[Alas, family affairs, national affairs, I should worry about my own family affairs first, ah, the imperial examination, ah...]
Who in your family is going to take the imperial examination? We'll just admit him to the imperial court!
