Tang Sufan was a little surprised. He was indeed worthy of being the future famous prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. He was already caring about the country and the people at such a young age.
"Hey, brother Ma, there is no need to be discouraged. There are very few outstanding people like Brother Ma who worry about the world's worries first and rejoice after the world's happiness!"
Tang Sufan expressed his sincere admiration. No wonder he would become a man like a carp leaping over the dragon's gate in the officialdom in the future. This thought already gave him the foundation of being a good official.
Worry first when the world is worried, then be happy when the world is happy!
When Ma Zhou heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Brother, you are a good writer! You should worry about the world's worries first, and rejoice after the world's happiness! These words have won my heart! Don't you know your name?"
How can those who can say these words be ordinary nobles and gentry who are ignorant of human feelings?
I, Ma Zhou, must make some friends.
"I'm Tang Sufan!"
Tang Sufan waved his hand and said his name.
Ma Zhou was even more surprised.
"So you are Mr. Tang!"
He bowed immediately.
"Please worship me on Monday, Shou Ma!"
Ma Zhou's bow shocked Tang Sufan. Is this Ma Zhou so upright?
"Hey, Brother Ma, why do you want to worship me? I can't bear this honor!"
Tang Sufan quickly helped Ma Zhou up.
Ma Zhou never put down his cupped hands, looking at Tang Sufan and saying excitedly.
"Alas, Brother Tang is certainly worthy of Ma Yiyi's worship. Brother Tang is known as the Little Poet Immortal. He cares deeply about his name. He detoxifies charcoal and brings benefits to the people. He also takes in the refugees to work and even gives them a place to return to. The place even pays wages! What a blessing to the people!"
"You are truly on the list of our generation! Ma Zhou admires him!"
Listening to Ma Zhou's eloquent words of praise, Tang Sufan blushed.
this--
Although we are honest and kind for a little bit, but we have had a good time and have had a good time——
low profile.
"Alas, Brother Ma has been praised too much!"
Tang Sufan waved his hand, low-key and humble.
"I didn't expect to meet the little Shixian here today. I, Ma Zhou, am so lucky today!"
Ma Zhou even put down the charcoal he was carrying on his shoulders, his eyes burning, as if he were a fan.
He almost shook hands with Tang Sufan and hugged him excitedly.
"Brother Ma, with your literary talent, why do you need to do these jobs again? It's really overkill and underutilized——"
At this time, Li Shimin, who heard the conversation between the two, naturally came over.
How could there be an ordinary person who could let Tang Sufan hear about it?
"This little brother wants to become an official in the court?"
"Alas, although I, Ma Zhou, have the desire to serve the country, I have no way to serve the country. I can only do something that I can do my best——"
Ma Zhou shook his head and sighed.
Seeing Ma Zhou's concern for the country and the people, Li Shimin nodded happily.
He couldn't help but say: "Haha, little brother, how about I recommend someone to you so that you can have a way to serve me?"
When Ma Zhou heard this, he saw Li Shimin dressed as a businessman.
He shook his head and declined his kindness.
"Thank you for your kindness. Ma Zhou wants to be a deacon for the people, but he really has no interest in going to the yamen to do some writing work!"
Li Shimin was very happy when he heard this. This young man clearly looked down on him——
Even Tang Sufan couldn't help but tilt his head and said: "Okay, Lao Li, stop blathering, I have my own future -"
You, Old Li, are the future prime minister.
With your ability, the most you can do is trick him into becoming a clerk in some yamen. Wouldn't that person's bright future be ruined?
You have the nerve to——
"Brother Ma, don't worry. You will definitely serve the country and the people in the future! It will only take a few years to become an official and serve the people as prime minister!"
Tang Sufan turned around, patted Ma Zhou on the shoulder and persuaded him happily.
Ma Zhou straightened his chest and cast an excited look at Tang Sufan. Little Shixian understood what he was thinking!
Unlike this businessman who has gained a little weight from eating, he probably just wants to pretend to be big and push Ma Zhou to be some kind of yamen clerk.
I, Ma Zhou, am such a smart person!
Will you be fooled?
Obviously impossible!
If Li Shimin knew what he was saying, he would definitely brag and say, "You are such a clever person!"
Li Shimin was disappointed and walked over waving his sleeves.
Tang Sufan and Ma Zhou also chatted for a few words, and they were quite happy.
Ma Zhou even asked for an address and said he would visit him another day.
This was an interview with the future Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, so Tang Sufan naturally agreed happily.
This is a potential stock and you must invest quickly.
The two said goodbye.
Li Shimin couldn't help but ask: "Su Fan, what's so different about this kid? Is he worthy of being so favored by your kid?"
Tang Sufan shook his head and smiled mysteriously: "Old Li, this is the future prime minister of the Tang Dynasty - the future Zhongshu Ling~"
Li Shimin and the three old men had strange expressions on their faces. The young man who was dressed simply and unpretentiously and even looked a bit stubborn like a cow would be the future prime minister of the Tang Dynasty?
When did the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty become so worthless?
Perhaps because of Ma Zhou's contempt just now, Li Shimin said without hesitation: "Just this person? Can he be the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty?"
"That's right. At this age, this kid probably doesn't even have the reputation of being a scholar, right?"
Fang Xuanling was also supportive.
Will this thing still accept my order from Zhongshu Ling?
Want to eat shit?
"Oh, you don't understand~"
Tang Sufan smiled smartly and was too lazy to fight with these local dogs.
However, Li Shimin still looked serious, grabbed Tang Sufan, and said.
"Su Fan, is this Ma Zhou really that capable?"
"That's natural. It's not like you didn't hear the conversation just now. Apart from anything else, this Ma Zhou's intention to serve the country and the people is true. Although this Ma Zhou is a little unruly and stubborn, his ability is naturally not that of yours. These people can see it~"
The three old men looked stunned. This bitch seemed to be mocking the three of them, right?
When Li Shimin heard this, he narrowed his eyes a little and seemed a bit joking for some reason.
With this kid's ability to know the right time and place, how can he not spot anyone anywhere?
It seems that this Ma Zhou is really capable——
In this way, Ma Zhou's fate changed today when he met in front of the charcoal workshop——
As they prepared to say goodbye, Tang Sufan cast a few good looks at his future wife.
The shy Li Lirou hurriedly hid in the carriage, while Li Shimin and his wife also stopped to talk about other serious matters.
"Su Fan, do you still remember that my sister asked my Gao Ming to become your disciple?"
Tang Sufan raised his eyebrows: "Remember, what happened to sister?"
"Well, how about my sister bringing Gao Ming to apprentice with you in two days?"
Li Shimin was listening, let Guanyin Maid do the talking.
If I were to say it myself, it would be weird if this kid would agree to it, considering that he would definitely not stand up if he could lie down.
"Haha, sister, it's all trivial. Just come and do it when the time comes."
Tang Sufan readily agreed.
Anyway, we will all be a family in the future. It’s okay to help Lao Li train him so that he won’t be as stupid as Lao Li in the future.
"Ahem, then Su Fan, my Gao Ming will ask you to teach him well!"
"Don't worry, Lao Li. I'll teach you what I can, but there's really nothing I can do about these Four Books and Five Classics!"
Tang Sufan said without interest.
"It's okay, you can discipline me as you please, even if you beat or scold me, it's up to you!"
Li Shimin was still very happy that Tang Sufan accepted Li Chengqian.
Then the three old men twitched at the corners of their mouths, saying that His Majesty had given up all the teaching rights of the prince to Su Fan.
From now on, if Tang Sufan can teach His Highness the Crown Prince, the three old men really can't imagine——
What kind of turmoil could Tang Sufan's words about political affairs in the future cause in the Tang Dynasty...
