After resigning, I switched to fortune-telling

Chapter 53

When Xie Shizi was sitting opposite Shang Qingyao, he only came up with the first sentence after learning a good eloquence from his friends.

And it's really an inappropriate sentence.

They are all unreliable guys, Xie Shizi thought depressingly, originally he was sitting opposite to some dandies like him in Yuejing, he patted his chest and assured, it would not be easy to find a way to deal with a mere Shang Qingyao As a result, as soon as Shang Qingyao showed up, the group of people all ran away.

Not one left.

Xie Tangru and Shang Qingyao looked at each other.

The atmosphere was a little stagnant.

Shang Qingyao pressed his fingers to his lips, looked at the bewildered Xie Tangru, and couldn't help but smile, "What do you want to say to me?"

Xie Tangru is a person who is very good at climbing up the pole. Since Shang Qingyao asked, he simply said: "A few days ago, I made friends with a scholar, who is quite talented and has done a good job. I also admire His Majesty and am willing to serve the imperial court. I think that if such a person has to wait three years for the imperial examination, it would be a waste of his talent, so I want to introduce him to Your Majesty."

"what is his name?"

"Shen Yu, a native of Yuzhou."

Shang Qingyao pondered slightly, he still had some impression of this name, the man beside Xue Ciyi that he and Xie Tangru met on the street when they were in Yuzhou.

It was never heard that Xie Tangru looked at this person differently.

Speaking of which, both Xue Ciyi and Shen Yu are destined to be with Xie Tangru, Shang Qingyao thought casually.

He didn't let go and immediately agreed to Xie Tangru: "The imperial court has its own rules for selecting officials, but the system of recommendation is also an ancient one. If this man named Shen Yu is really a talent as His Majesty said, it is not impossible that he cannot be promoted."

"Just one thing, the recommender must be an official."

Xie Shizi: "..."

Xie Shizi just remembered that he had resigned.

He thought for a while: "Why don't you treat him as recommended by my father."

Shang Qingyao's eyes darkened, "The matter of the court is so easy to joke, if the prince really wants to recommend him, there is no way."

"what?"

"As long as the son continues to serve the court, he is eligible to be recommended as an official."

Xie Tangru recalled, Shang Qingyao put it here to trick him.But facing Shang Shang Qingyao's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, Xie Tangru couldn't say anything nice to refute for a while.

He laughed dryly, "Your Majesty, don't make such jokes with me. I know who I am, and I can't live up to Your Majesty's expectations. It's better to let me go and let me be a rich and idle person." That's all."

"My son, you don't need to belittle yourself. I know the talents of your son." Shang Qingyao answered him unhurriedly, with a calm posture.

Xie Tangru didn't expect Shang Qingyao to have his mind set on him.It's a path he never imagined, and he doesn't want to follow in his father's footsteps.

The emperor is ungrateful.The first emperor embodies these four characters vividly all his life.

So he fell silent slightly.

In all fairness, Shang Qingyao is much stronger than the first emperor.Shang Qingyao can be his evenly matched opponent, but he will not be a monarch he can control, nor is he a subject that Shang Qingyao can manipulate.

Xie Tangru felt that it was inappropriate.

"Your Majesty, don't make fun of me. Your Majesty trusts me better than Shen Yuzhi. He will definitely be a loyal subject in His Majesty's heart."

"There are so many ordinary scholars, but there is only one Shizi Xie. How can others compare to the Shizi?" Shang Qingyao looked at him, and at the same time thought in his heart why Xie Tangru seemed to be disgusted with being an official.

"Your Majesty, don't look at the fact that Emperor Xian ordered me a Tanhua Lang. In fact, my talent and learning may not even be able to enter the gate of the imperial examination hall. This is just the family's concealment and the late Emperor's love."

Xie Tangru had a bitter face.

He has never done anything serious in court, and everyone thinks he is a typical representative of a tiger father and dog son, and Shang Qingyao doesn't know why he thinks he can do it.

It doesn't make sense for Shang Qingyao to see his disguise so clearly and clearly, right?

"It doesn't matter. You don't have to test writing articles to be an official. Besides, people who write well may not be suitable for being an official."

Xie Shizi: "..."

Shang Qingyao didn't think about pushing people too hard, he bent his lips and smiled: "Your Majesty, you don't need to rush to make a decision, you might as well go back and think about it, you can come to the palace to find me at any time."

"I can see that the son is willing to be a person in the pond?"

When he said the last sentence, he almost said it in Xie Tangru's ear.

The smile on Xie Tangru's lips remained unchanged, and he lightly tapped the table with his fingertips, making a soundless rhythm. He tried calmly: "If I agree to become an official in the court, what position will Your Majesty give me?"

Shang Qingyao smiled: "Above the court, you can choose."

"What if I want to be prime minister?"

"It's not impossible." Shang Qingyao believed that with Xie Tangru's talent, there was no position above the court that he could not hold.

Xie Tangru lowered his eyes: "Your Majesty's promise almost made me think that I am some kind of worldly Confucian, crouching dragon and phoenix child. It's a pity that I am really not someone who can fulfill Your Majesty's high expectations. I'm afraid I will disappoint Your Majesty."

If he really became an official, one day Shang Qingyao found out that he had been deceived and betrayed his trust, so he must not be beaten to ashes?It's better to keep a distance from the beginning, but Shang Qingyao will be less angry when the time comes.

... It's better to go back and find the iron coupon of the alchemy that his father put on the table, maybe it can save his life in the future.

Although mostly useless.

The emperor didn't want to kill him, so the iron coupon of Dan Shu was useless.The emperor wanted to kill him, but the Iron Coupon of the Dan Shu was useless.

Xie Tang thought with downcast eyes.

It was impossible for Shang Qingyao not to be disappointed when he saw him reject so simply and neatly.

He couldn't help wondering, Xie Tangru was clearly tempted just now, but he immediately declined without hesitation.He knew that if Xie Tang hadn't been a person without ambitions, he had been hiding his strength and biding his time for so many years.Is there some reason for this that he doesn't know?

"Ah Ru." Shang Qingyao stood up and stroked his hair. After a while, he realized that this action was a bit out of line between the king and his courtiers. He immediately withdrew his hand, looked at him seriously, and lowered his head. Said: "I hope you think about it carefully, what exactly is what you want."

Xie Tangru stood in the shadow of the sun, his body slightly startled, and then he bowed his hands in salute.

"I understand."

The voice is more than respectful.

Shang Qingyao's eyes sank for a moment, and then he sighed, there was nothing he could do about it.
