Chapter 29 Roll Up
"It's really a seed for reading, it only works when you're studying."

Li Yan has enjoyed the benefits brought about by the great increase in wisdom, so naturally he also had the idea of ​​a card bug.

But after trying many methods, they all failed. This talent will only take effect when he is studying and in a learning state.

Be content, at least you can still read ancient books that are vertically arranged and have no punctuation marks.

Infected, Qiu Shenji also sat down, carefully opened a book, and began to read.

"Zzz...Zzz..."

After an unknown amount of time, Qiu Shenji suddenly raised his head and exclaimed, "What time is it?"

"Soon, you slept for two hours."

Li Yan, who was reading the book seriously, didn't even raise his head: "This is a protracted battle, and it's time for Brother Qiu to recharge his batteries."

No matter how thick Qiu Shenji's old face was, it turned red.

Why did I fall asleep by myself?

It's all because of this book, it's so hypnotic.

Seeing that Li Yan had already placed a book he was looking forward to, and there were many records in beautiful fonts on the paper in front of him, he asked, "Yuan Fang, do you have a clue?"

Li Yan shook his head slightly: "I need to understand her ethnic history, cultural customs, this is a huge project, and now is just the beginning."

Qiu Shenji was speechless: "This...isn't it?"

Li Yan smiled and continued to read.

He understands the original historical process and has insight beyond the times, which is a greater advantage than copying some poems, especially at the national level.

But because of this, it is necessary to do enough homework in the details to be effective.

"This son grew up in Bianzhou, but he can have such abilities, it really is not a fluke!"

What Qiu Shenji hated the most was Confucian scholars with poor heads and poor education, but thinking of the contributions made by the other party, he had to admit that it should be useful.

He rolled his eyes and patiently accompanied him.

Li Yan acted as if no one was around, constantly enriching the knowledge he could not understand in modern times, and time passed by in a hurry.

soon.

It's noon, and it's time to eat.

Without hesitation, Li Yan stood up immediately, ready to go downstairs to cook in the canteen of the Dudu Mansion.

But he said to Qiu Shenji who was also standing up: "Brother Qiu, I will continue to work overtime in the afternoon, if you have something to do, please do it yourself!"

"work overtime?"

Qiu Shenji was dumbfounded.

This is a strange new word, he understood the meaning and was greatly shocked.

Qiu Shenji came from Chang'an and had been familiar with the routine of officials since he was a child. It was already noon, so he went home to cheer.

Yes, the ministers in Chang'an get off work until noon, so the business hours of the East and West markets also open at noon.

Get up early to go to court, work in various ministries, free lunch, and go out of the palace in style.

This is the general flow of a day for Datang officials.

Of course, there are also busy periods that last all night, but in general, there is still plenty of free time every day.

Even so, in some idle departments, officials often leave early.

Before it was time, people left cleanly, and they were already excited in Fangshi.

And this moment.

In the Tang Dynasty, Longyou Road, Liangzhou, Dudu's Mansion, and the library!
One of the Tang officials asked to work overtime on his own initiative!

Seeing the expression on Li Yan's natural cultivation of blessings, Qiu Shenji gritted his teeth: "Yuan Fang is so diligent, how dare I not accompany her?"

The two had a sumptuous lunch, and after digesting the food, they returned to the house.

Qiu Shenji didn't sleep this time, and even forced himself to read those densely packed words.

At first, I knew most of the words, but I didn't know what they meant when they were linked together.

But looking at it, it seems that I can't even recognize the words.

However, Qiu Shenji forcefully put forward a few opinions to prove that he was involved.

Li Yan answered but didn't answer, and didn't care too much.

Until the sun goes down.

Candles were lit.

"Do you still have to work overtime at night?"

Qiu Shenji almost screamed.

Li Yan said solemnly: "Intelligence work has always been a race against time, because we don't know when Liniang's downline will realize that she has been arrested, and we must pry out the information as quickly as possible. I want to stay, Brother Qiu Do yourself a favor!"

Qiu Shenji closed his eyes slightly.

In his mind, the appearance of his father dying.

Qiu Shenji's father, Qiu Xinggong, was a well-known general around Li Shimin, and the Qiu family was also a family of generals.

It's a pity that Qiu Xinggong is the concubine's concubine's concubine's son, and he worked hard through military merits. He has a cruel temperament, low emotional intelligence, and a very bad relationship with his colleagues. Later, even Li Shimin hated him, and he couldn't bring much protection to his children.

Qiu Shenji was not the eldest son yet, so he had even less inheritance. To a certain extent, he was very similar to Li Yan at this time. His father and grandparents were prominent, but he didn't really bring much help, so he had to rely on himself.

"I work overtime!"

Ever since, Qiu Shenji's face showed determination, and he uttered three words with high fighting spirit.

A cup of buttermilk had already been placed beside Li Yan, and he continued to study.

Read books, read newspapers, just sit for a whole day.

The old cadre of the agency.

It's a pity that there is a lack of a maid who breathes like blue to serve. If you are tired, put a knee pillow and squeeze your shoulders, that's called enjoyment.

If this kind of work intensity is also called overtime, then the nine-nine-six of later generations will really be embarrassed.

The time is long enough, the king of fishing!
Combining the two hidden talents of [Scroll King] and [Salary Thief], that is the kingly way.

Li Yan worked overtime in a happy mood, and next to him was the extremely tormented future cruel official.

Finally, when the beeping sounded, Li Yan stood up: "Let's go back!"

Qiu Shenji stood up, with a smile that was three parts amnesty, three parts relaxed and four parts impatient: "Yuan Fang, then I will take my leave!"

"Well, come back tomorrow."

Li Yan nodded, and walked out of the room gracefully.

Behind him was Qiu Shenji whose smile froze instantly.

This is just the beginning?
……

Internal guard station.

Qiu Ying looked at the haggard Qiu Shenji, and said in astonishment, "How did you become like this in just five days?"

"me……"

Qiu Shenji was ashamed.

"Oh, you..."

There is a difference between closeness and closeness. No matter how Li Yan is Li Jing's grandson, he is also an outsider, while Qiu Shenji is his nephew. Back then, Qiu Xinggong also took good care of his younger brother who was also a concubine. Qiu Ying naturally hoped that Qiu Shenji would be more promising.

But the reality is that the gap between the two is really big, and Qiu Ying was very disappointed that they were so reluctantly credited, and said earnestly: "The saint reopened the inner guard, let me do things cheaply, and the position of Wu Dewei under his command can be done by himself." decision, but the magnanimity of a saint is a gift from heaven, but I cannot presume in the slightest."

"Every Wudewei's quota is not given indiscriminately. The Xiaoling family supports Qianjin, which relieves the urgent need. Yuanfang has seen through the identity of the secret spy. Now, regardless of merit, it will be indispensable in Chang'an. The role I play is just to shorten the time. The process, and you haven't made an inch of merit..."

"Third Uncle, do you know how hard he works!"

But Qiu Shenji was about to cry: "He reads ancient books every day for a full six hours, and he doesn't rest except for lunch!"

"Six hours?"

Qiu Ying gasped when she heard the words, and suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.

He couldn't sit still anymore, and murmured: "Sure enough, there is no fluke in success, the juniors are working so hard, how can we rest?"

He immediately got up, looked at Qiu Shenji who looked tired and lazy, and shouted with hatred:

"What are you doing in a daze, go to work!"

 Thanks to the book friend "Feng Yu Wu Fei" for the reward.
