Chapter 446 Liu Pingqin was very happy. Qin Huaidao spoke like this, which means he would definitely help. With his help, his life in the capital would be much better.

After sitting in Liu Pingzhong's mansion for a while, Qin Huaidao was going back, but his second uncle, second uncle and third uncle have been invited by Qin Huaidao to have dinner here. Qin Huaidao thought about it, it was OK, and agreed.

After a while, Liu Xiaoli came over.

"Secretary!" Liu Xiaoli was very happy when he saw Qin Huaidao.

"Well, how about it?" Qin Huaidao asked with a smile.

"It's okay, I'm just doing things now. I've always wanted to invite you to my mansion before, but your cousin said that you must invite you to your home for dinner, but you are not in the capital, so I don't know if you have time these days?" Liu Xiaoli said to Qin Huaidao with a smile.

"Oh, you treat me? Okay, I'll do it. You can just notify me one day in advance. Your Majesty has given me ten days off, and there are still 8 days left. Otherwise, I'll eat in the Qin Mansion Restaurant every day, and they're still eating there now!" Qin Huaidao nodded with a smile and agreed.

Qin Huaidao still attaches great importance to Liu Xiaoli, and he is very good at being a good person. He is neither arrogant nor impetuous nor humble. Even Zhang Liang said that this child is not good, but he doesn't read much, but he has been reading books now.

"Thank you Boping!" Liu Xiaoli was very happy when he heard Qin Huaidao agree.

"Well, come, sit down and say, have tea!" Qin Huaidao greeted Liu Xiaoli and sat down.

"By the way, there is something I have been hesitating about. This time, the Ministry of Personnel selected people. The Ministry of Personnel sent someone to talk to me and asked me what I mean. I don't understand now. I don't know what Boping has any suggestions?" Liu Xiaoli looked at Qin Huaidao and asked.

"Well, if you don't go, it's useless to go down now. At most, you will be the magistrate of a lower-class county. If this is done well, it will take five years to get back. If it is not done well, it may take ten years to stay below.

If you get a sixth rank in the capital, you can serve as the prefect of the middle-class prefecture. It will not be too late to go there. It will probably take about seven years to reach the sixth rank.

Seven years later, if you are only in your early thirties, you need to go downstairs to experience it. After ten years of experience, you will return to the capital, serve as the minister of a certain department, and then continue to move upwards!

It doesn't make sense to go now. You are not from the imperial examination. If you go on, you can't compete for those officials from the imperial examination. You still need to stay in the capital now!" Qin Huaidao said to Liu Xiaoli.

"Hey, I listen to you. I won't go anymore. I don't want to go. Now I finally have a house in the capital and I'm going to withdraw. I'm a little reluctant. I've spent my time decorating my house!" Liu Xiaoli touched his head and said with a smile.

"Haha, you have to consider it. In the future, there will be no such good residence. If you wait for an official for a few years, and with the money you saved over the years, you can also buy one in the capital. By the way, the reward this year will not be less than 100 guan, but you need to save it. You can buy a small house at that time." Qin Huaidao said to Liu Xiaoli.

"Well, basically, I have saved some of them now. Now our Ministry of Works has good benefits. The reward of a month is more than 5 knots. I have saved them all. The salary is used for family expenses!" Liu Xiaoli nodded and said.

"Is the Ministry of Works such a high reward?" Liu Pingqin looked at Liu Xiaoli in surprise and asked.

"Oh, I envy him. The Ministry of Works is now the best department and the most difficult department to enter. Bo Ping needs to nod and agree. I heard that Zhang Shangshu didn't care about this matter and gave it to Bo Ping. If he didn't have real talents, he wouldn't be able to get in at all!" Liu Pingzhong said with a smile.

"There are many vacancies in the Ministry of Works, but you need to be familiar with the Ministry of Works workshop, or you have very strong arithmetic ability, or you can only come in if you understand the art of investigating things!" Qin Huaidao smiled and started to say.

"I'm learning arithmetic and Investigation now. Boping, I'll go to college to listen to classes on weekends, listen to arithmetic and Investigation!" Liu Xiaoli said with a smile.

"Yeah, I have to learn!" Qin Huaidao nodded and said,

Soon, we had dinner. Qin Huaidao and his group of adult men sat at the same table, while Liu Pingzhong took out the white wine.

"This is given to Boping. Come and try it. The best wine is a good one. I am reluctant to take it out and drink it for ordinary people!" Liu Pingzhong took out a bottle of white wine and said with a smile.

"You're hiding well!" Liu Pingqin said with a smile.

"That's right, I know you're good at this, you can do it if you don't hide it!" Liu Pingzhong said proudly.

After Liu Pingzhong finished his meal, Qin Huaidao returned to the mansion and then sent someone to give gifts to Liu Pingqin's family, mainly some snacks, some cloths and some practical things. These were arranged by Li Lixian.

In the afternoon, Qin Huaidao went to the Qin Mansion Restaurant again. There were more people today. Basically, all the children in the capital came over. Qin Huaidao and his friends ate and drank in the Qin Mansion Restaurant for several days.

During this period, they also went to the pleasure boat to play together. Qin Huaidao did not go, but hid in his own home.

That afternoon, Cheng Chusi and the others came over and called Qin Huaidao out.

"Where are you going?" Qin Huaidao looked at them without understanding. He didn't need them to call him for dinner at the Qin Mansion Restaurant.

"Weide is back. Let's go and pick him up. He will definitely need to go to the palace later. After coming out in the evening, we will go to the pleasure boat. We have already booked one. If you don't go, it's better to go to the Shili Pavilion now!" Cheng Chusi said to Qin Huaidao with a smile, and the others nodded.

When Qin Huaidao heard this, it turned out to be the case and smiled bitterly. Now the prince is very afraid of Li Ke, and they don’t know what the purpose of Li Ke’s return is. If they just come back for the New Year, it’s understandable that they will go to pick him up, but if they come back to compete for the prince and so many soldiers to welcome him, it would be a bit taboo.

"I'm talking to you, it may not be appropriate for you to pick him up? You really don't know what his purpose is for coming back?" Qin Huaidao sat there and looked at them and asked.

"Then we don't care. We will treat him as a friend anyway. If he takes him, he will fight for him in the future, and we won't help!" Yuchi Baolin sat down and said with a smile. Of course he knew about such news.

"It's better if I don't go. You can go there. I'm not familiar with him." Qin Huaidao thought about it and started talking to them.

"Well, don't you plan to meet me?" Yuchi Baolin looked at Qin Huaidao and asked.

"There will be a chance in the future. After all, he will be in the capital for so long." Qin Huaidao said as he looked at them.

"It's okay, it's okay if you don't go. Bo Pinghe Weide is unfamiliar with it, and it's embarrassing to go. Then we'll go." Cheng Chusi thought for a while, nodded and said.

"You guys go, hey, but it's better to be careful, but don't be used by those who are interested." Qin Huaidao reminded them.

"I know, we don't care what he does in the future, but now that he comes back, we still have to pick it up. We will play together in the past few days. Will Boping come?" Cheng Chusi asked at Qin Huaidao.

"Forget it, you guys go, I'm not interested in the pleasure boat, I would rather lie down at home." Qin Huaidao said with a smile, waved his hand,

When they heard this, they laughed. They knew that Qin Huaidao didn't like this, so they would go out soon.

Qin Huaidao was sitting there thinking, hoping that Cheng Chusi and the others could understand this matter. After all, King Li Ke of Wu came back, but in order to compete for the throne, their children could not stand.

In the evening, Li Ke, surrounded by the children of the military generals, returned to Chang'an City, and even Li Chengqian went to greet him.

Li Chengqian felt much more relieved when he saw Qin Huaidao not coming. At least, Qin Huaidao had already expressed his attitude. Li Chengqian took Li Ke to the Ganlu Palace, and Li Shimin met the two brothers in Ganlu Palace.

"Ke'er, you are not allowed to make trouble when you come back. The main reason is that your mother wants to see you. She talked to her father many times. It's time for the Chinese New Year, so she promised to let you come back, but you are not allowed to cause trouble for me!" Li Shimin looked at the young man who looked very much like him and said with a smile.

"No, don't worry, my father, I won't cause trouble this time, I'll just go out with Pauline and the others." Li Ke immediately bowed and said.

"Hey!" Li Shimin was helpless when he heard that he was following Yuchi Baolin and the others to play. They were all good at playing.

"Have you booked another pleasure boat?" Li Shimin stared at Li Ke and asked.

"I don't know yet. They said that after I left the palace, I would go to play, saying that I would go to the Qin Mansion Restaurant to have dinner. The food there was a great deal of Chang'an, and my son also liked it. I want to go and have a look!" Li Ke said with a smile.

"Well, the food and food in Qinfu Restaurant are indeed the best in Chang'an. Well, I won't leave you much. Go and see your mother first. Your mother hasn't seen you for several years. I miss you very much. Go!" Li Shimin said to Li Ke, waved his hand at the same time, and immediately bowed to Li Shimin with a smile.

Then he bowed to Li Ke and withdrew from Ganlu Hall, where the prince was left.

"Boping didn't go to pick him up? Baolin and the others didn't call Boping?" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and asked.

"I don't know about this son. When I went there, I didn't find Boping." Li Chengqian shook his head and said.

"Well, you should go back early to rest. The weather is so cold and there is nothing to do, so don't go out and run." Li Shimin said to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian hesitated for a while, then nodded and left the Ganlu Hall. Li Shimin sat in the Ganlu Hall thinking about it. He saw Li Chengqian's hesitation just now and knew what Li Chengqian wanted to ask, but he still didn't plan to talk about this matter in detail with him.
