Chapter 2523 Plum appreciation

Man Bao got into the carriage that picked her up, took the heater that Bai Shan handed over, and let out a sigh of relief.

Bai Shan also had one in his hand. He held it in his arms and looked at Man Bao curiously: "I heard people say that you and Liu Shangshu were fined for one month for neglecting government? Would you neglect government?"

Neither does Liu Shangshu, who is also known as a diligent person.

Man Bao felt a little guilty, and asked in a low voice, "How do you know, do many people know?"

When Bai Shan saw it, he knew it was true, and he said, "It's not a lot, isn't it?" He said somewhat uncertainly, "When the Ministry of Officials was delivering the orders to the Ministry of Households, they passed by our Hanlin Academy. Ask, so we'll know."

Man Bao: "...Your Hanlin Academy is behind the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Households is right next to the Ministry of Officials. Why did the Ministry of Officials go around the circle to send the orders to your Hanlin Academy first?"

The Hanlin Academy is a place for cultivating books and history. It is full of scholars, and there are books and materials from two study buildings, so it needs quietness. Therefore, the Hanlin Academy is behind the six departments, and it occupies a very, very large courtyard.

This is also one of the reasons why Hanlin considers himself relatively noble.

Bai Shan looked at Man Bao silently, "What do you think?"

Of course it was to let him know.

Man Bao was discouraged and muttered that they were really gossiping, and then briefly described what happened this morning, she said: "Liu Shangshu is busy, usually he is at the Ministry of Household when he has nothing to do, and when he enters the palace, he is also looking for His Majesty. How can you gossip with me?"

"I'm also busy, and I have to go to Chongwen Hall to repair books in the afternoon, so I specially waited for him after the big court meeting, and we talked for a while, who would have known such bad luck, and just called His Majesty to catch him. ."

She said, "It's fine if it's just His Majesty. He's easy to talk. Liu Shangshu interceded for us alone at the time. As a result, Mr. Tang was also there. He was in charge of the picket, and we ran into each other directly."

Bai Shan then understood that the punishment was probably not because they talked about personal affairs during their working hours, but because the two of them spoke ill of the emperor and Lord Wei. The two of them won't really be punished.

But Bai Shan didn't point it out, but nodded and said, "Understood, next time I have something to do, I'll talk to Liu Shangshu later."

Man Bao nodded with a heartfelt heart, and a month's salary was quite a lot.

Bai Shan looked amused and couldn't help but ask, "So do you really know why you lost your monthly salary this month?"

Of course Man Bao also thought about it, so he sighed: "I didn't speak ill of Mr. Wei and His Majesty. I still feel the same sickness as Mr. Wei."

However, under the circumstances at that time, the listeners also belonged to small talk.

However, Man Bao only felt distressed for a moment, and quickly put this matter on the back of his mind, because there are more important things at the moment.

"The affair between Li Ru and Liu Huan is half done." Man Bao said Liu Shangshu's heartfelt words with her.

Bai Shan faintly felt that something was not right, "Liu Shangshu is so enlightened."

Man Bao didn't expect it, and sighed seriously: "We all misunderstood Liu Shangshu before."

Zhou Liru didn't expect the Liu family to be so enlightened, so when she received the gift that Liu Huan was ordered to send, she no longer returned it, but accepted it. This surprised Liu Huan, who had been defeated repeatedly, and couldn't help asking her. , "Why didn't you reject me?"

Zhou Liru looked up at him: "...you want me to reject you?"

Liu Huan immediately returned to his senses and waved his hands again and again: "No, it's not..."

Liu Huan scratched his head, but he was used to being rejected. When the other party accepted his gift, he didn't react.

Zhou Liru's eyes wandered for a while, and he nodded his toes, and said with a slightly red cheek: "By the way, my aunt said that after the imperial court seal, she will go to Huguo Temple to enjoy the plum blossoms, are you going?"

Liu Huan didn't even know that this was an agreement between the two families. As soon as he heard that he was going to play, he nodded and said quickly, "Go, go."

He also asked, "Who is there? Do you want me to call a few more friends?"

He is now working in the Ministry of Industry and has made a few new friends. He still gets along very well, and everyone can play together.

Zhou Liru looked up at him and said after a while, "Go back and ask your grandfather."

Why did they ask his grandfather when they were hanging out?

Huguo Temple is in the city, his grandfather would not let him go to this place, and now that he is working, his grandfather doesn't care about him anymore.

Liu Huan didn't really want to ask, but when he got home, he happened to see his grandfather coming home from overtime, so he couldn't help but ask one more question, and then he was beaten.

Liu Huan felt that he had been wronged, and he had no idea why he was beaten, so he didn't need to say the reason.

Heaven and earth can learn from it. He has been honest recently, and he has never caused trouble at all, and he has never heard that his grandfather was impeached for lax family governance and unworthy descendants.

Although Liu Huan was an official in the Ministry of Industry, his position was small. The main reason was that people would not discuss this kind of thing in front of the family members of the parties concerned, so he didn't know that his grandfather was arrested for talking with Zhou Man in the palace. Penalty.

By the time he knew the reason, others were already in Huguo Temple.

Man Bao felt that when it came to a blind date, the elders were talking about the elders, and the younger ones would find another place to play, so that it wouldn't be embarrassing.

So she also pulled Bai Shan and Bai Erlang together.

When they arrived at Huguo Temple, Mrs. Liu Shangshu took Qian Shi's hand and said with a smile, "I wanted to invite the magistrate to Huguo Temple for a long time, but there has been no good time. It's fate that we met today."

Mrs Qian also said yes, when Mrs Feng met her, the elders of the two families went to worship the Buddha first, while the children went to appreciate the plum blossoms.

Qian seldom prayed to Buddha, and was not familiar with many things, so Mrs. Liu Shangshu taught her, and the two quickly became acquainted.

Man Bao and the others entered the Merlin, and as soon as they entered, they felt at ease, "The Merlin in Huguo Temple is really beautiful, and it's not worse than ours."

Jie Yan, who was disturbed and clean, turned around and left and thought, since the plum forest in the house is so good, why come to Huguo Temple to appreciate plums?

Jiehan's steps were very light, and no one noticed that he had been here before. Keke scanned it and felt that he hadn't touched the line that was automatically broadcast by the system, so he remained silent.

Jie Yan returned to Master's courtyard, and He Shi said, "Master, donor Zhou and donor Bai are here."

Zhiren opened his eyes and saw that he was empty-handed, so he asked, "Where are the plum blossoms that you folded?"

Jie Yan paused for a moment and said without changing his color: "Master, all flowers and plants have life, and the plum branches are growing well, why should they be broken?"

Zhiren: "Because of your master, I have not been able to fully explore the red dust. It is rare for the plum donor from Jiangnan to come to visit, so I want him to leave a calligraphy treasure. If you ask for it, you will naturally have to give something. The plum blossom that you fold is to give. For the plum donor. Quit anger, do you really not break plum branches because all flowers and plants are alive?"

Jie Ang hurriedly admitted his mistake, saying that this is going to be the case.

He didn't really want to meet Zhou Man and Bai Shan, especially Bai Shan. He had been practicing martial arts with him some time ago, and Jiedang was so annoying to him.

See you tomorrow
