Chapter 88 Once again alone with the second
Back in Lu's residence, Lu Deming held a family banquet to welcome Luo Yan back.

It was said to be a family banquet, but in fact it was just Lu Deming, Luo Yan, and the Cui brothers.Ying'er and Mrs. Lu did not sit at the table, due to the restrictions of etiquette, this was the only way to go.But before the family banquet, when the Cui brothers were talking to Lu Deming, Luo Yan had already gone to the backyard to meet Mrs. Lu.

In other words, there were two more dishes than usual, but this time, Lu Deming also asked the butler to serve wine during the meal.This is the first time in Lu Mansion.

Luo Yan lived in Lu's mansion for a year, and in the next few years, he ate at Lu's mansion every now and then, and never saw Lu Deming drinking.Firstly, Lu Deming didn't like what was in the cup, and another reason was that he was too old to drink.The two reasons combined, not to mention the Lu family, even at Li Shimin's banquet, Lu Deming rarely drank.

But tonight, because his disciple came back from studying hard, Lu Deming made an exception, which made Luo Yan secretly moved.Sure enough, he is a teacher for a day and a father for life.Although Lu Deming has extremely strict requirements on Luo Yan in terms of knowledge, he is very concerned about other aspects.Even in some places, as long as it is harmless, even if Luo Yan did something wrong, Lu Deming would not criticize him severely.

Of course, even though wine was served on the table, it was only for a few people to drink a few glasses to enliven the atmosphere.Lu Deming was aware of Luo Yan's drinking capacity. Although he would not care about going out to drink with the young people, he should still drink in moderation at family dinners.

A simple family dinner ended in small talk.The Cui brothers left soon after the banquet, and Lu Deming and Luo Yan, the master and apprentice, walked into Lu Deming's study as usual.

After all, he has been studying for three years. Although Luo Yan will come to report every month, Lu Deming still wants to check the overall situation of Luo Yan's study in the past three years at the end.

There are no books to refer to, so the master and apprentice just asked one by one and answered one by one.Due to time constraints, it was already midnight when Lu Deming had just finished taking the exam on Luo Yan's understanding of the Three Rites.Putting the other Six Classics exams to a later date, Lu Deming gave Luo Yan a good evaluation, and then slowly returned to the backyard to rest.

Originally, Luo Yan thought that Lu Deming could only say it was acceptable, but he didn't expect that the evaluation was so slightly higher, which made Luo Yan very happy.Sanli Luo Yan studied under Linghu Defen, but he didn't listen to Linghu Defen's explanation systematically, but he was able to ask some questions every now and then.And since Luo Yan resigned, he didn't have much contact with Linghu Defen, so it can't be said that Sanli said that Luo Yan taught himself by himself.

It is definitely the biggest reward for Luo Yan to be able to get a good sentence from Lu Deming now.

The next day, after Luo Yan woke up, he originally wanted to continue studying, but he didn't read much, so the people sent by Li Shimin invited him to the Qin Palace.

The current Li Shimin, compared to the heroic Tiance General when Luo Yan first met, is a little less heroic, but a little more deep and tired.

This time Li Shimin met Luo Yan in his study, and after motioning Luo Yan to sit down, Li Shimin said, "Jinzhi has lived a happy life for the past three years."

Luo Yan was a little embarrassed when he said this.As someone who joined the Literature Museum early, to be honest, he has never participated in any gathering of the Literature Museum in the past three years.As for Li Shimin's banquet, let alone refuse it directly.Luo Yan is the one who has been doing this for three years.

As a representative figure of the younger generation in King Qin's forces, if Luo Yan's actions in the past three years hadn't been suppressed by a teacher, Lu Deming, someone would have jumped out and suggested that Luo Yan should be kicked out.

Of course, if there is such a proposal, Li Shimin will definitely not agree.Because Luo Yan gave Li Shimin several suggestions before, although Li Shimin did not adopt them at the time, but afterwards it proved that Luo Yan's foresight was correct.The idea may be clumsy, but Luo Yan's control over the current situation even surpassed many of the top staff in the Qin Palace.

This ability alone is enough for Li Shimin to value.But Luo Yan has one more thing, Li Shimin still pays attention to it.That is those potatoes in Wanshou County.

In the early stage of the plan, there were several kinds of things like setting up a greenhouse, but Luo Yan forgot about it later.So up to now three crops of potatoes have been planted, and each harvest has been counted and reported by the subordinates.

In the past three years, Luo Yan originally harvested about 300 million potato seeds.You read that right, the unit of this number is a piece. If the number is not too large, the people under him will probably be specific to single digits.In three years, it has doubled hundreds of thousands of times.

Of course, the soldiers under his hand picked out a few relatively small potatoes and sent them up because of the large harvest this year.After Li Shimin let people cook it, he tasted it, it was quite good, and it could also fill his stomach.This effect made Li Shimin a little overjoyed.

The potatoes harvested this year, the land in Wannian County can no longer be planted.Thinking of looking for more land next year, Li Shimin paid more and more attention to Luo Yan.

"Yan is still young after all, and he's not good enough to take on big responsibilities anyway, so he just took advantage of his youth to study more. In the future, Caide can be qualified for the job." Although he was a little embarrassed, Luo Yan couldn't just keep silent like this, Ever since, I began to find a step for myself with the cheek.

"It seems that you have gained a lot from entering. Why don't you come to Qin Wang's mansion and work as a secretary for Master Li for a few days." Li Shimin's arrangement is definitely a stroke of genius.

For Luo Yan, Li Shimin is the person who knows the best besides Lu Deming.Li Shimin began to pay attention to Luo Yan after receiving the report on the sea salt drying on the Shandong battlefield. Since then, every time Luo Yan did amazing things, Li Shimin would be reported immediately.

The more he knew, the more Li Shimin felt that Luo Yan was a talent.Not to mention being brilliant, this official wisdom is not low, and the foresight is amazing.He is partial and calm, and is not very keen on power.Most importantly, he is still young.Coupled with the discovery of potatoes, Li Shimin didn't think that Luo Yan could only talk empty words.This is basically the subordinate that a superior wants most.

As for arranging Luo Yan to be a pen official.But definitely not to underestimate Luo Yan.

Although this official is not even a domestic official, don't underestimate it.The secretary of the palace's master book is already a person who is close to the core of the palace's government affairs.The master book is in charge of the documents of the palace, and there is a lot of knowledge here, so this official position can only be held by a confidant.

The current head of Qin Palace is still Li Xuandao.And asking Luo Yan to be Li Xuandao's pen official, to put it bluntly, Li Shimin was trying to win over Luo Yan, and at the same time letting Li Xuandao teach Luo Yan the knowledge of officialdom.It even meant to train Luo Yan as Li Xuandao's successor.

Li Shimin actually wanted to get Luo Yan a high-ranking official position, but before Luo Yan resigned from the ninth rank, if he wanted to give him a high-ranking one now, he would definitely have to go up the official ninth rank in the Prince Qin's Mansion. These positions are full.Moreover, Luo Yan had been silent for three years, and he was given a high position as soon as he came up, and the others were also openly dissatisfied.At this critical moment, winning people's hearts is naturally the most important.Li Shimin doesn't want to lose sight of the other.

Then the rest can only be given to Luo Yan to rely on him.The chief bookkeeper is naturally the best position.

Luo Yan thought about it.

This is the time to make a choice.Although he joined Li Shimin's account before, Luo Yan has always been on the edge.Li Shimin was also well aware of this matter, he knew exactly what Luo Yan was thinking.Luo Yan has arrogance, and it is impossible for him to follow up without showing something.

Basically, now that Li Shimin has shown the greatest sincerity, Luo Yan has to think about it.

In fact, it doesn't matter how you express your position now.The next half a year will be the time to really submit the answer.However, Luo Yan doesn't want to be that kind of villain with both ends.Now that you have to make a choice, you will naturally follow it all the time.

"It's fine to be a writer, but I hope His Highness can agree to one request." As always, Luo Yan did not show any courtesy to Li Shimin.

"Please tell me." Although Luo Yan likes to impose conditions, Li Shimin is a little helpless, but since Luo Yan already has this meaning, Li Shimin also wants to hear what Luo Yan's request is.You know, the last time Luo Yan came up with an idea, he dared to ask for hundreds of acres of fertile land. Although the benefits still fell to him in the end, he was indeed a little bolder.

"No matter what happens in the future, I don't want to get lucky." Li Shimin was surprised by this request.That's right, even Li Shimin was surprised by such a weird request.

"Why?" Such a request must be asked clearly. To be an official, isn't it better to be promoted as soon as possible and to be bigger and bigger? How come Luo Yan's words don't seem to work.

"Talent and virtue are not up to the job, and if you get lucky, you can only become a disaster. Rather than being infamous for thousands of years, it is better to go on steadily. After all, I am still young." Luo Yan's light answer made Li Shimin admire for a while.At this time, Li Shimin was thinking, Luo Yan is worthy of being Lu Deming's disciple, and his moral character is absolutely top-notch in the world.

If Luo Yan knew that Li Shimin admired him so much, he would probably blush.

Although the reason Luo Yan said just now is also from the heart, but this is definitely not the main reason.There was one more thing Luo Yan didn't say, which was to save his life.

After Li Shimin ascended the throne, he treated the heroes very well.But don't forget that Li Shimin treats people well, but it doesn't mean that the gang of courtiers will live in harmony.If Luo Yan gets lucky at that time, with his little political wisdom, he will be played to nothing.So Luo Yan can only go up steadily step by step, so as to protect himself to the greatest extent.As for being a senior official?As long as Li Shimin values ​​it, is it not the same for high officials and small ones?

 This is the last update yesterday, not included in the update on the 22nd.Thank you Gargamel Jack for your tip.Okay, I'm going to bed too, I'm really tired.
