Chen Kaizhi and Zhang Zhong have come out.

Zhang Zhong looked bad, his body looked weak, and he was a little trembling when walking, but fortunately he was accompanied by Chen Kaizhi.

After leaving the palace, he was ready to take the chasing. He probably knew the cause and effect in his heart. On this extremely abnormal face, he showed a little gratitude and said to Chen Kai: "Student Chen, I must remember the kindness of saving my life. I really don't know how to repay you. Why don't I hold a banquet in Honglu Temple tonight and invite Chen to join me..."

Chen Kaizhi felt that what he said about eating is not that simple. According to the nature of this kind of person, eight out of ten, after eating, he had to take medicine himself.

Circle and Circle and Cha, this grandson is not a thing. I save your life, but you want to feed me medicine?

Before he could finish his words, Chen Kaizhi shook his head and said, "School is just recovering from a serious illness, so it's better to take some time to recover. I'll disturb the school waiter's health."

If you take medicine again now, the person named Zhang's life is probably really hard to protect. Although Chen Kaizhi has no good feelings for Zhang Zhong, he has also spent a lot of effort to save him from death, so he couldn't help but remind Zhang Zhong.

After all, Zhang Zhong was also a person who had seen the storm, so why couldn't he hear the hint in Chen Kaizhi's words? After thinking about it, he seemed to feel something was right, so he smiled and said, "Student Chen is right, so he is so free to visit again."

After pausing for a moment, he suddenly said, "Scholar Chen, I will be rewarded in the future."

He bowed to Chen Kaizhi, and without saying too much, he slowly got on the ride and drove him away.

In fact, although a person like Zhang Zhong is not a good thing, he can secretly accept bribes from his uncle and secretly take various magical medicines. His daily life is probably very luxurious, but these are just things in his bones. On the outside, although he is weak, he doesn't know if he has been in the Yansheng Gong Mansion for a long time, but he still has a rare demeanor, which is quite humble and gentle as jade.

Chen Kaizhi looked at the riding away and couldn't help but smile.

Then, he naturally returned to the Hanlin Academy on his own, and then went to the Museum of Literature and History.

As soon as he sat down, Deng Jian came up and lowered his voice and said, "Kaizhi, Shixue He is about to leave Beijing."

What is the servant?

Chen Kaizhi was slightly stunned. He had not received any news before. Was it too sudden? So he looked at Deng Jian with a puzzled look on his face.

Deng Jian continued to lower his voice and said, "The bad news came from his home, saying that his father passed away and he was ready to go back to his hometown to attend the funeral. This funeral will take three years to worry."

When Chen Kaizhi heard this, he couldn't help but look regretful: "It's really a sad thing. He Shixue must be extremely sad now, right?"

"Of course..." Deng Jian nodded heavily.

No wonder when Chen Kaizhi came in, he felt that the atmosphere was not right. Usually, the affairs of the Literature and History Museum were leisurely, and there were always some Hanlin people gathered together to have tea and chat and give advice on the country. But today, everyone obediently looked silent in their own public housing or desks.

Obviously I was not in the mood to joke at this time.

As he was talking, a Hanlin came and said with a smile: "Compiled by Chen Xiu, compilation Deng Xiu..."

There are three editors in the Museum of Literature and History. In addition to Deng Jian and Chen Kaizhi, Wang Bao was the one who came. Wang Xiu was much older than Chen Kaizhi and Deng Jian. As soon as he came in, he said to them: "He Shixue encountered bad news and will go to the funeral soon. You know this. Come and take a gift to express our wishes to be a subordinate."

He said, while taking out a white fold.

When Chen Kaizhi heard that he was following the gift, he did not dare to neglect it. When he encountered a funeral, he needed to follow the gift. Moreover, this was his own Shangguan. Although this Shangguan was about to return to his hometown to Dingyou, he would have been able to do his best for three years, but he still had to do it.

Chen Kaizhi nodded slightly and said, "My senior brother and I will give each of 500 taels, please write it down."

When the editor Wang Xiu was heard, he was stunned for a moment. Deng Jian was beside him, and he was stunned and looked at Chen Kaizhi with disbelief.

"What?" Chen Kaizhi looked around and saw that Deng Jian and the others were shocked, which seemed very puzzled.

Just suddenly he realized that he was too generous to take action, and this was the bad habit of rich people!

I think he was a good child who was slack off in the past, but since I saw Wucai, the uncle waved his hand and threw 300,000 taels of silver into the water, and he gradually got rid of him.

One thousand taels of silver is indeed a huge sum, even for officials, this is enough to scare people.

Although Wang Bao was shocked, he soon came to his senses and said to Chen Kaizhi with a smile: "Everyone is just twenty taels, Chen Xiu, are you kidding?"

Deng Jian looked at Chen Kaizhi even more resentfully. Damn, one thousand taels of silver, how many chickens are there? This is too generous.

Chen Kaizhi finally realized one thing. If there were too many people now, he would have become a suspect of pretending to be a big shot.

So he coughed desperately to hide his embarrassment, so he said, "Then, just be like others."

Wang Bao then smiled and said, "Then Wang has recorded it." He wrote it down on the white note, nodded to the two of them, and then left.

As soon as Wang Bao left, Deng Jian stared at Chen Kaizhi, looking like he was trying hard to endure the urge to strangle Chen Kaizhi to death. You are so rich, but don’t break everyone’s rules. People are only twenty taels, but you are raising the price. After you raise the price in this market, do you still want to live?

Even at twenty taels, Deng Jian felt it was painful enough, after all, his monthly salary was not too much.

Seeing Deng Jian's depressed look, Chen Kaizhi said to Deng Jian: "Senior Brother, I'll give you this gift for you."

"No need." Deng Jian shook his head stubbornly and refuted Chen Kaizhi very persistently: "Why do you want me to give me my intention?"

Chen Kaizhi sighed in his heart. The senior brother's annual salary is only about a hundred taels of silver. In this moment, the salary for two months is gone. No wonder he lived a hard life, but Deng Jian's temperament is like this. He would rather hide at home and eat steamed buns than take advantage of others.

"What are you sighing?" Deng Jian looked at Chen Kaizhi sideways, as if he felt that there was a deep meaning in Chen Kaizhi's sigh, and he couldn't help but say, "I can afford it."

He remembered something again, and lowered his voice again, "Wang Bao was very concerned about this. When he heard that He Shixue was about to go to his father's funeral, he took the initiative to come out and run for him, contacting people to receive gifts. I think he hoped that He Shixue could speak well for him before leaving the capital."

Chen Kaizhi was stunned, and then he remembered the key to He Shixue Ding You.

He Shixue left office for three years, and who will be responsible for the Literature and History Museum in these three years?

It is nothing more than transferring someone from other places in the Hanlin Academy, or choosing a successor from the Museum of Literature and History.

If it is the latter, who has the best chance? The attendant and lecturer are editors, and others are not qualified. However, there are three editors in the Museum of Literature and History. Of course, Wang Bao has the most qualifications. He has been in the editorial position for six or seven years, and this time he is the most promising to take over.

Now he is so attentive, afraid that as Deng Jian said, I hope that He Shishen can say something nice to Shangguan for him before leaving.

Chen Kaizhi suddenly became concerned, but he didn't show any expression. When it was time to get off, Chen Kaizhi deliberately delayed and pulled Deng Jian away. As usual, Chen Kaizhi wanted to go to the signing room and call him a name. At this time, the people in the Hanlin Academy had basically gone away, and the civil servants here had almost gone away, and only one civil servant was on duty here.

Seeing Chen Kaizhi and Deng Jian coming together, the civil servant quickly greeted and bowed intimately.

Chen Kaizhi smiled at him, signed his name on the roster, and said to the clerk casually: "It is really a sad thing for him to serve the mourning of his father."

The clerk hurriedly said, "Yes, the student saw him with red and swollen eyes today and went to see the Grand Secretary. It was a pity that Mr. Wu comforted him with great relief."

Chen Kaizhi said: "Everyone should be as gifted as you like, let's express your feelings..."

When the clerk heard this, he understood: "This is natural. I am afraid that the cost of writing Chen Xiu and writing Deng Xiu is a big deal. It is said that even the editors of the Literature and History Museum paid thirty taels each."

"What?" Deng Jian was stunned at first, then his eyes became cold: "Thirty taels?"

"Why isn't it?" the clerk said with a smile: "Even students, they have a few ounces."

Deng Jian wanted to say something, but Chen Kaizhi pulled him out.

After leaving the signing room, Deng Jian felt anger in his heart, and he couldn't help but say angrily: "Then Wang Xiu, he kept telling us twenty taels, but he expected that even the editors of the lower end were thirty taels. Wang Xiu gave at least fifty taels. He was very clever. If the list of gifts was reported, you and I were both editors, but the gifts he gave were not as good as a small editor. What would others think of us? Wang Bao just wanted to succeed him, but he really wanted to succeed him and was crazy, so he used our brothers as stepping stones."

Chen Kaizhi had actually suspected that this was the case, so he went to ask the clerk who signed the room. Most people were very taboo about the number of gifts. They were not very familiar with you and would not mention it to you at all.

Otherwise, you will still yell around as much money as you give yourself a gift. If it is well known, it will inevitably give people a bad impression.

But the clerks who signed the house were different. After all, they were not officials and did not seek progress. Moreover, the people who signed the house were too quainted. They knew everything about the Hanlin Academy. Chen Kaizhi was usually very polite to them, and they knew everything about Chen Kaizhi.

This is also why Chen Kaizhi is extremely polite to the clerk.
