Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 296
"Miss Ako!"

Xue Lang looked at A Kou, who was about to cry without tears——

Why does Your Highness do this every time!It's fine if you don't answer the important questions, and let Ako chase him away, can you still have a pleasant chat!

"Your Highness, you won't dare to tell you what's on your mind after this!"

Xue Lang protested to Princess Pingyang, whose back was turned to him.Princess Pingyang moved her shoulders, but she didn't turn her head and didn't make a sound.

With a smile in his eyes, Ako tried hard to restrain his expression and tone: "Cough... Duke Xue, please!"

Today, he didn't scold him as a disciple, but he gave him the back of the head directly, and then he was kicked out by Akoo.Xue Lang was almost depressed!
However, I was touched today, thinking about it... It's not that Her Royal Highness doesn't have a good impression of him, but, Her Highness has always been able to calm down, and reason is more important than emotion, so she doesn't show anything unusual.

As long as the princess is interested in him, he doesn't care about the rest!Even if the princess really can't pass the test of life and death in the future, Xue Lang will admit it!In a word, if you don't try, how will you know you won't pass it!

I like her and want to marry her!This wish will not change. No matter what the final result is, I must put the name of Princess Pingyang's son-in-law in front of my name.

Xue Lang secretly made up his mind, and reluctantly followed A Kou out of the house——

After Xue Lang and A Kou went out, Princess Pingyang turned around, her brows were flushed, she was ashamed, so unattractive.Looking at the direction Xue Lang left, I don't know what he was thinking.

As for Xue Lang, he left the princess mansion reluctantly and went back to his own home.For the rest of the vacation, I didn't go anywhere, just stayed at home and stayed in the study all day, writing and drawing with a serious face, trying to be simple and clear.

The three-day holiday of Shangyuan Festival passed in such a busy way.On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, when the sage returned to court, Xue Lang didn't need to get up early to go to court. His appointment hadn't come down yet, so he didn't need to go to court early in the morning.

After only waiting at home for a day, the appointment came down, transferred to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, served as the right servant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, a fourth-rank official, was promoted, the rights have also increased, and naturally the responsibilities have also increased!
The Ministry of Civil Affairs, also known as the Ministry of Households in later generations.In the Gaozong Dynasty, in order to avoid Taizong's taboo, it was changed to the household department.However, at this time, the future His Majesty Taizong Erfengjun is still the King of Qin, so naturally there is no issue of avoiding the name change, so it is still the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs is under the Ministry of Shangshu, and the chief of the Ministry of Civil Affairs is the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The two adjutants under the Ministry of Civil Affairs are called Shilang.The Ministry of Civil Affairs is in charge of national household registration, acres of land in the world, currency, taxation, official salaries, etc., and has great power.

The appointment was delivered early the next morning, along with official robes and seal ribbons.At the same time, Jiang Lin's appointment was also sent.

I don't know if Princess Pingyang played a role in it, or Jiang Lin got it because of his military merits. According to the imperial edict, Jiang Lin was appointed as General Youxiaowei Zhonglang, and General Ningyuan was dismissed.There are not only rewards for actual military power, but also positions for scattered honors.

The reward is not unreasonable!
Su Siniang is very happy. Her husband has been promoted, so naturally she should be happy.Su Han was also happy, and suggested in an excited tone: "Youyang and Ah Lin have both been promoted, so it's time to celebrate. Let Xiu Niang and Ah Tu work together to clean up the table?"

His eyes were full of longing, and he couldn't help smiling when he saw Xue Lang. After laughing, he patted Su Han on the shoulder and asked, "A Lin and I are settled, what about you? What are your plans?"

Su Han said: "Princess Pingyang sent people to ask me a few days ago if I would like to go to the Imperial Medical Office, but I declined, but I agreed to continue to serve as an enshrinement in the Princess's Mansion, and I want to have more free time to study the prescriptions and pharmacopoeia you gave me. "

Xue Lang nodded: "That's fine. Practicing medicine is different from other things. It is learned by old age. "Compendium of Materia Medica" is a good book. It's good to read it more. I heard a saying before. , If you don’t want to be a good look, you can be a good doctor. It makes sense to think about it.”

"If you are not a good look, you are a good doctor."

Su Han chewed it carefully, and said loudly: "Thank you, Youyang, I understand!"

Both Jiang Lin and Su Han had a home, so Xue Lang was naturally relieved.Those who are young can't all rest at home, even the best talents will be laid off.Xue Lang felt that he was older than the two of them, and had more experience than the two of them, but he voluntarily took up the responsibility of the elder brother and urged the two to make progress.Fortunately, the two did not disappoint him.

Now that he has a real job, he has to deal with new colleagues. After thinking about it, Xue Lang was about to ask Changjian to go out and find out who the Secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs was, when suddenly there was a knock on the window. expressive face.

Akoo held the eaves with her right hand, and hung her body under the eaves as if she was nothing. Seeing Xue Lang come out, she took out something from her arms and threw it towards Xue Lang.

Xue Lang subconsciously caught it, but it turned out to be a letter. Just as he was about to say something, A Kou swayed slightly, and dexterously climbed onto the roof, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Xue Lang shook his head with a wry smile, opened the envelope, and read the contents of the letter——

Probably the writer considered his reading level, and the writing was very easy to understand, and it was about the current Minister of Minbu.

Xue Lang was not in a hurry to read the letter, but lightly stroked the letter paper, staring at the wet ink on the paper.This is the handwriting of Princess Pingyang. Xue Lang has seen it many times, so he naturally recognizes it.

The next day, apart from Su Han studying medical books at home, Xue Lang and Jiang Lin woke up early, had a casual breakfast, and then went to their respective yamen to report.

The yamen of the six ministries are all in the imperial city, and the area from Zhuquemen to Chengtianmen are the office locations of various government departments.Close to Suzaku Gate is Taichang Temple, and the Shangshu Province, where the household department is located, is behind Taichang Temple.

Xue Lang went there in a carriage. He went in and asked someone. Another servant came out, smiled and cupped his hands towards Xue Lang and asked, "Is it Xue Lang who dare to ask? Wang Xian of a certain family is the left servant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs."

Since ancient times, the left has been respected.After listening to his self-introduction, Xue Lang knew that this person was his future colleague.There are two servants under the minister of the Ministry of Minbu, Xue Lang is the right servant, and Wang Xian is the left servant, who is more respected than him.

Therefore, Xue Lang saluted and said: "Wang Shilang is very polite, I am Xue Lang, and I am here to report today."

After greeting each other, Wang Xian said: "Pei Shangshu said before the court that Minister Xue is coming to report today, and ordered me to receive you. After he comes down to the court, I will make the distribution."

Xue Lang thanked: "Here. Thank you Wang Shilang."

Wang Xian waved his hands, with a dignified smile on his face, he said: "I still have something to do, please sit down with Xue Shilang, and wait for Pei Shangshu to come down, I will go to work first."

This Wang Xian doesn't seem to have a good impression of him?
Xue Lang raised his eyebrows, noncommittal, and said calmly: "Don't dare to bother Wang Shilang, Wang Shilang can do whatever he can."

Wang Xian nodded, and actually left.

Xue Lang is not a person who can't sit still. Although he doesn't know why Wang Xian has such an attitude, he must wait until Pei Ju, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, returns.
