Tan Hu hurried into the Houya with the post in his hand and said to Xu Ping who was reading a book in the study: "Ducao, the left-behind the Ministry of Justice, sent an invitation to the office, saying that it was a banquet to welcome the deputy envoy of the Salt Iron King tonight, and let you go!"

Xu Ping was confused, took the invitation and read it again and said, "The Deputy Envoy Wang worshiped the imperial tomb, and Boyong accompanied him. Why are you here to Luoyang City? Could you still want to meet Li Liushou?"

Wang Yaochen was temporarily the judge of the left-behind Sitong. He was responsible for the affairs of the imperial palace and the imperial tombs. Li Ruogu was basically in a semi-retired state and left government affairs. There were more officials who went to the imperial tombs all year round, and Wang Yaochen personally accompanied Wang Bowen, which had already given him enough face. According to the usual practice, he went back to the capital after the worship in Yong'an County. He did not come to Xijing City unless there were any errands for the palace. Wang Bowen did not do his job and came to Luoyang City first. The itinerary was really unique.

After writing a reply to Tan Hu, Xu Ping couldn't figure it out after thinking about it, so he had to put it aside. He naturally knew it when he met at night.

It was early winter, and the cold wind was gradually rising, and charcoal fires lit up in the hospitality hall of the left-behind the yamen, and the redness was full of warmth.

Li Ruogu read Xu Ping's reply and said to Wang Bowen: "Zhongming is at ease. Xu Longtu replied to the letter and just wait for you to come to greet you in the evening. If you have anything to say, you can tell Xu Longtu directly that I have been feeling unwell and have been neglecting government affairs this year. Boyong is dealing with everything. Tell me, wouldn't it be a piano to play the cow? Let's just talk about some gossip."

Wang Bowen had no choice but to nod and no longer mentioned topics related to government affairs. His subordinates were capable of judging and the old ministers who were left behind in Xijing often let go of their old age regardless of Andu's later years, and Li Ruogu was not an exception.

When Xu Ping first arrived in Luoyang, Li Ruogu was still thinking about fighting for the dominance of Xijing City. Later, his son sent a letter to persuade him not to delay Xu Ping's career, and he has been half retired and no longer in charge of business. Li Ruogu is already old and has only ended in this life. He has no chance of promotion. His mind is all on Li Shu. Li Shu is now a magistrate in the Sherenyuan Academy and is only one step away from being admitted to the Bachelor's Academy. A minister like Xu Ping who has a special status in the heart of the Emperor Zhao Zhen will not offend him.

Wang Bowen was appointed as an official in the imperial examination. Later, Chen Yaozi recommended him to be a bachelor's college and was awarded the title of Jinshi. He was proficient in official affairs and was a peaceful and peaceful government position. He held positions with complicated government affairs many times. His political reputation was good, and his style was similar to Yang Gao.

This is a characteristic of Zhao Zhen's administration in power. The censors and ministers often use high-ranking Jinshi, and are famous in the literary world. However, the Sansi government officials, which have complicated government affairs, do not care about their background, and mainly focus on officials and cadres. Many of the chief and deputy envoys of the Sansi were not the Jinshi.

Wang Bowen and Li Ruogu sat next to the brazier and talked for a while before Wang Yaochen came in from outside.

After talking about the ceremony, Wang Yaochen said to Wang Bowen: "The deputy envoy is responsible for his important tasks and is busy with government affairs. He cannot stay in Xijing City for too long. I don't know when to go to the Yong'an Imperial Mausoleum? I'll set the time and I can make arrangements."

"No hurry, no hurry. It's rare to come to Xijing once, so you have to stay for two days." Wang Bowen waved his hand with a smile. His real errand was to be done in Xijing City, and the imperial tombs is the only way to take care of it, so why are you anxious?

Wang Yaochen shook his head secretly, thinking that Wang Bowen has always been a smart and capable person, why is he stupid this time? Worshiping the imperial tomb is a national event, and he has to choose a good day, so why is it still dragged in Xijing?

The sky gradually darkened, and a cold wind blew. Li Ruogu coughed twice, covered his mouth with his hands and said, "The weather is getting colder, and I can't bear the old bones anymore. Alas, I'm old and useless."

Wang Bowen said: "If you stay behind, if you are unwell, go back and rest first. If you get sick, wouldn't I betray me?"

Li Ruogu said politely, then took advantage of the opportunity to get up and said to Wang Yaochen: "Boyong, Zhong Mingyuan is a guest. You can treat me on your behalf, don't neglect it. I can't find my body, so I'll go back first, and everything here is left to you."

Wang Yaochen hurriedly stood up to agree, helped Li Ruogu out of the reception hall, and asked his entourage to help him back to rest.

After seeing Li Ruogu off, Wang Yaochen came back and sat down, and said to Wang Bowen: "Li Liushou is actually in good health, but the only thing he has suffered from ear disease. He speaks softly and cannot hear the Qing Dynasty, so he doesn't like socializing. Don't blame him for the deputy envoy."

"Left-behind is an elder and important official, old and poor health, and it is normal for human nature. Boyong, we speak."

Wang Yaochen felt that Wang Bowen seemed to have a chance to talk to him alone, but he didn't know why and it was hard to ask directly, so he had to talk to him.

Before he knew it, he talked about the changes in Henan Prefecture this year. Wang Bowen said: "Since Boyong was appointed as the magistrate of Henan Prefecture, the increase in money and grain in the people has increased rapidly, and he is the best in the world. Now in the capital, people say that Boyong is worthy of being the top scholar and has achieved great political achievements."

"I can't say that, it's just a lucky person."

"How could it be a lucky person? The Jinshi in the fifth year of Tiansheng is not simple. Xu Longtu will not say that he has military achievements to destroy the country and the achievements to fill the treasury in the Three Divisions. The rest of you have also made their mark. Ministers in the capital often talk about it, such as Boyong and Han Zhigui, who are rare talents and will be of great use in the future."

Wang Yaochen could only nod his head in a vague way. How could he take on such a topic?

Wang Bowen said again: "A few days ago, Wen Yanbo tried the Bachelor's College and had already entered the Pavilion. By the way, when he came to Xijing this time, he had a letter asking me to bring it to Sanmen Baibowen for shipping, and I would like to ask Boyong to do it for convenience."

Wang Yaochen had no choice but to say, "If the deputy envoy stays in Xijing for a few more days, I will go to the book and send the article to the city to meet."

"It's so good, so good." After saying these nonsense, Wang Bowen saw that Wang Yaochen was a little embarrassed and finally turned to the topic. "Boyong, you are in charge of Henan Prefecture and your money and grain are increasing. Needless to say, in the Three Divisions, everyone has been talking about you having received many tickets from state troops here, and the amount is amazing. I'm afraid you can't fill the hole."

Speaking of this matter, Wang Yaochen's expression became serious and said to Wang Bowen seriously: "Deputy envoy, I owe a lot of foreign debts here. If I can't make up for the deficit of flying tickets, I will not be able to live in Henan Province."

"Oh, is Wang Junfu there? Don't worry, the field management is still under the Three Divisions, everything is easy to discuss."

Wang Yaochen shook his head: "The deputy envoy said this incompletely. The biggest creditor of Hecai Mansion is not the land management."

Wang Bowen was stunned: "Where is that? Didn't you always say that you mainly owe the capital of the land management here?"
