Chapter 271: Mr. Qianli, are you... sick?
Chen Ying was so embarrassed that he never expected that the capable man introduced by his grandfather would look like this.
Now he could only smile bitterly and cup his hands at the old man Qianli, then send him out the door.
Finally, because he was an old acquaintance of his grandfather, he still dug into his pocket and gave 28 of the 30 yuan he had advanced this month to the old man Qianli.
No matter how embarrassed he looks, he is still a kind person after all.
The old man Qianli was not annoyed when he saw the door slowly closing. He just weighed the money bag in his hand and went to find an inn to stay with a smile on his face.
On the other hand, Chen Ying was so angry that he wanted to slap himself after entering the house.
What is this?
My grandfather said mysteriously that although this guy deserves a beating, he is quite capable.
As a result, when he got in front of his young master, he started talking about some bullshit kingly ways.
This kind of scholar always talks about words with gorgeous words, which are of no use except to decorate the appearance.
...
"Mr. Liu, I think this old man Qianli is not simple."
Chen Ping frowned slightly and spoke in a deep voice.
"How to say?"
Liu Bai drank the decoction and felt a little dizzy, so he went back to the couch and lay down.
He is a time traveler, but he is also a human being. It is normal for him to want to sleep when he has a cold.
"Baili Xi is my wise, capable and direct minister of the Qin Dynasty."
"Since this old man Qianli takes Qianli as his surname, he naturally feels that he is better than Baili Xi."
"Does such a person really think it's appropriate to talk about kingship in front of the prime minister of a country?"
"Besides, this old man from thousands of miles away doesn't ask for a reward, but just wants an empty bamboo slip, which is even more mysterious."
Chen Ping spoke slowly.
"I don't know what he did...but what he said..."
Liu Bai mumbled and fell into a deep sleep.
Chen Ping laughed dumbly.
Xiao He went back to deal with the memorial, and Chen Ying sent Qianli old man out.
There were three people in the room, Long Qie and Liu Bai were asleep, which was really weird.
....
Late at night, Chen Ying asked the mansion to distribute the newly ordered thick quilts.
When the snow comes, it naturally cannot freeze the people in your mansion.
"Ta-ta-ta!"
A familiar knock on the door sounded.
The door opened with a "squeak" sound. Chen Ying looked at the old man in front of him and said helplessly: "Mr., what's important late at night?"
The person who came was none other than the old man Qianli in the daytime.
"Good boy, have you scolded me a lot?"
The old man Qianli said with a smile, as if nothing happened during the day.
"Don't dare!"
"Don't dare!"
Chen Ying said sarcastically.
He was an honest person to begin with, so he lied so much that his face turned red first.
"Hahaha!"
The old man Qianli laughed so hard that he patted Chen Ying on the shoulder: "Good boy, do you think I came here in the wind and snow just to show off my wisdom in front of the so-called immortal Liu Xiang?"
Chen Ying was slightly startled: "No, why is the old gentleman so angry in front of the young master?"
The old man Qianli smiled and did not answer, but said: "Boy, introduce me to me tomorrow. I will know what to say."
"I am a man of faith. Since the bamboo slips have been taken away, I still have to help as much as I should."
After saying these words, Chen Ying sighed and could only agree: "Okay..."
...
On the second day, when the sky was slightly bright and the rooster was still crowing, the old man Qianli was waiting at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Chen Ying finally waited until Liu Bai woke up before reporting the news that the old man Qianli had come again.
"Again?"
The corner of Liu Bai's mouth twitched slightly, and he glanced at Chen Ping helplessly.
The latter nodded slightly.
Talent is like quicksand between your fingers, it is difficult to grasp.
It's just a matter of meeting each other, and there's no need to put on a show of refusal.
"Okay, let him in."
Liu Bai finally agreed.
Chen Ying's face was filled with joy and he quickly turned around to lead him away.
After a good sleep, Liu Bai's energy improved a lot. Not to mention whether he was sick or not, he didn't have to go to court, which really made him feel happy.
Liu Bai was even thinking, should he follow the routine and be absent from work for more than 20 days every month?
...
"Where's the little baby from last time? Let him carry me!"
Chen Ying went to invite him, but the old man Qianli was unwilling and wanted Xiao He to bear the burden of life and death.
This kind of request made Chen Ying's face full of helplessness.
But elders are indeed elders, so they still have to speak up. ,
Unexpectedly, after hearing such a request, Xiao He immediately put down the memorial and came to carry the old man Qianli.
"Little doll, you are very kind."
The old man Qianli smiled and praised Xiao He on his back.
Xiao He didn't say anything, just smiled.
This time, Liu Bai did not see the old man Qianli in the house, but in the courtyard.
Looking at the falling snowflakes, Liu Bai sat in the pavilion and felt very beautiful.
Seeing the three people arriving, Liu Bai stood up and said with a smile: "Liu Bai is waiting for Mr. Qianli."
After saying that, he asked Long Qie to prepare a straw mat and a thick mattress, and sat on the ground with the old man Qianli.
"Old sir, yesterday the boy caught wind and cold, his mind was dizzy, and he couldn't listen to many words."
"Today the old gentleman came again. I am really overjoyed. I wonder how the old gentleman can help me?"
Liu Bai asked with a smile.
He has become extremely proficient in being greeted with smiles in official circles.
The old man Qianli took his time, and this time he glanced at Xiao He first, and then said: "Since Prime Minister Liu doesn't like the royal way, I thought that etiquette can be implemented in the court!"
"The Zhou Dynasty was in chaos, caused by the collapse of rituals and music, the rudeness of the princes, and frequent attacks."
"Ruling a country with etiquette is the path explored by Confucian Confucius!"
"Our Da Qin is lacking this skill."
"With etiquette as the body, benevolent government as the function, people as the foundation, etiquette as the foundation, the people will return to their hearts!"
"No matter the aristocratic family, the people of the six countries, or the foreign barbarians, they can all be educated!"
Liu Bai first had his original formulaic smile, and then his smile froze slightly.
But the smile froze, just for a moment, and then he smiled again.
What the old man Qianli said is Confucian nonsense!
But the last sentence, aristocratic families, people of the Six Kingdoms, foreign barbarians... these are all contradictions that Da Qin needs to solve urgently!
This thousand-mile old man can actually see it? It’s not simple anymore.
Of course...the solution given is still too...stupid!
Education is useless!
"Mr. Qianli, please!"
"I am too weak to drink, so I asked Xiao He and Chen Ying to accompany the old gentleman to drink and enjoy the snow."
Liu Bai stood up with a smile, unwilling to listen any more.
It wasn't that he was rude, but he was so disappointed when he answered this question twice.
The old man Qianli smiled even more and cupped his hands.
Liu Bai left with Chen Ping and Long Qie, leaving only three people in the courtyard.
Suddenly, the old man Qianli looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahahaha!"
Chen Ying and Xiao He were both dumbfounded.
The honest man Chen Ying asked honestly: "Mr. Qianli, are you...sick?"
Unexpectedly,
Not only was the old man Qianli not annoyed, he even smiled: "No!"
"I congratulate Ban Dao for his hard work!"
