When Xie Ji saw his complaining expression, nothing changed on the surface, but he was thinking secretly.

This is called treating the other person with his own medicine. Aren't you going to beat me up? Now I'm going to beat you up first. It's better to strike first.

"It seems you have to be careful when going out in the future. There are a lot of thieves in Chang'an recently."

Xie Ji said with a smile, which made the man's face twitch. Damn Xie Ji, there are so many thieves. Chang'an is the city with the fewest thieves.

"It's very true, I will definitely pay attention to it next time."

However, the official still agreed with Xie Ji, as long as he knew it was Xie Ji who did it.

Xie Ji glanced at him with a smile, and then continued to taste the delicious food slowly.

The man saw that Xie Ji was now slowly starting to eat. He was hungry and endured pain to deliver information to Xie Ji.

This Xie Ji can actually eat.

After a while, after Xie Ji finished eating, he opened the list and looked at it.

There are a total of 243 people here. It can be seen from their place of origin and county title that they all come from famous families.

They all have connections in the court, and Xie Ji should have understood that these disciples all have connections behind the scenes.

After completing their studies in this academy, they can be assigned to serve as officials.

Not counting the academic year, if you pass the assessment of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Rites, if you are successful, then your study period is over. If you fail, then you can continue studying.

The students there generally don't take the imperial examination, so they don't take the examination essays either. They are all interested in becoming an official. After all, if you can get in, you are already halfway into the official career.

So, this is what I learned, but I still need to learn the Four Books and Five Classics.

"Okay, I got it." Xie Ji put down the roster in his hand and said to the official of the Ministry of Etiquette.

"You can go back now. Remember to be careful next time you go out, lest you get beaten up by the thieves again."

Xie Ji kindly reminded the official. The official kicked his feet, nodded repeatedly, and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister, for reminding me. I will definitely pay attention next time."

You must be careful when beating Xie Ji in the future and think of a strategy, otherwise you will only reap the consequences.

…………

On the other side, here is the ceremonial hall.

There were several empty bowls on the table in the lobby. The original desk was transformed into a temporary dining table, and the official documents here were moved to other places.

Apart from a few bowls, there were some leftovers left on the table.

"This is the first time in my life. It's my first time to spend the night here." After eating and drinking, the Minister of Etiquette shouted, how could he, a second-rank minister, be reduced to such a state.

Some of those people found out about the beatings of those people, so they hired dozens of guards to follow them. However, unexpectedly, they were caught by Xie Ji's secret guards and beaten up in an alley. This made him extremely angry.

I came up with the idea of ​​relying on the guards to go out.

"Hey~ I can't help it." Another doctor said. He didn't want to stay here either, but once he went out, he would inevitably be beaten by Xie Ji's people, so he had no choice but to hang out here.

"Everyone, the quilts are here." At this time, the manager brought several quilts over.

He also ordered his servants to bring over some new sets of court clothes, which will be suitable for wearing tomorrow.

"Sorry to trouble you."

"It's not troublesome, it's just a casual matter." The manager smiled.

"Come on, everyone, if you have nothing to do, you have nothing to do. The official documents piled up here, why not deal with them all today." An official said to them while holding the official documents. If you deal with these today, you won't have to work so hard tomorrow.

.

That servant, Ying Nan glanced at him, usually thinking that those official documents were so hateful and so troublesome, but today, this was indeed a way to pass the time.

So, he nodded.

"Servant, Cai Yan is usually idle. Didn't Xie Ji say that such behavior will be severely punished in the future?" One of the waiters said with a smile. The meaning was obvious. He ignored the affairs and should be kicked out. That's the kind of thing he did.

The kind of white-collar workers who get a salary and don’t work.

Why do they have so many things to do and why is he so free?

When the time comes, you should leave all the chores to him.

"No, he should be idle." Ying Nan replied with a smile. It's better to be idle. It would be bad if he really grabs work.

It is best to keep asking questions and not know, wait until the accumulation reaches a certain level, and then hand over a matter to him. In the end, he messes up and suffers heavy losses. At that time, it is time to issue a memorial for impeachment.

Such a useless piece of trash can't handle a simple thing well. His Majesty will probably not keep him.

The sky outside gradually darkened, the bright moon hung high in the sky, and the bright moonlight shone on everyone's head.

The starry sky and moonlight set off each other, and the starlight in the sky and the bright moonlight became the objects of chanting in the poet's mouth.

The sun rises in the east, slowly emitting a ray of light from the east, and the starry night is gradually replaced by morning glow.

In the lobby of the Ministry of Ceremonies, the candles had turned to ashes. The officials inside were lying on the ground with their backs spread out, covered with a thin quilt. After a while, they gradually got up from the ground and changed into the clothes they had prepared yesterday.

Once you wear court clothes, your ordinary temperament will have a hint of power. Sure enough, clothing can set off a person.

"I slept in it last night and it was so cold. The floor was so cold and the bed fragrance at home was nowhere to be found."

This was the first thing an official said when he woke up. Ying Nan looked at him, and this person had the nerve to say, "It was your snoring the whole night."

It was not appropriate at all. I wanted to kick you awake several times, but I still held back.

Ying Nan was the first to wake up, and he was the one who valued face the most. He put on his clothes before they woke up, so as not to be watched like a monkey by them.

Now I am undecided whether I should go out or not.

This morning, Xie Ji did not dare to do anything on the way to the morning meeting.

"Servant, it's so early."

Those people woke up one after another, and while talking and changing clothes, Ying Nan turned her head away.

Don’t look at anything that’s inappropriate, don’t look at anything that’s inappropriate.

"This time, let's go out together and walk together."

Ying Nan said, I have to go to this morning meeting. It would not be a good thing to stay here all the time. I have to go out.

Besides, it was an early morning, so Xie Ji shouldn't be that excessive.

Everyone nodded, and then ordered a carriage to take these people to the morning court. Last night, these people spent the night here, which made the servants dare not leave, so they could only spend one night outside.

However, they must not have expected that when the carriage was approaching the palace, it suddenly galloped towards a small alley.

Xie Ji told those people yesterday that since he didn't want to be beaten yesterday, he would be beaten during the morning court. At this time, there was no time to go home and change clothes, so he could only go to the morning court with a miserable face and let people watch.

You know, the crime of not going to court without any reason can be big or small, but now His Majesty will only be furious.

"What...what's going on?" The official saw that the carriage had been tampered with.

Thank you Ji him...how dare he?

He actually attacked them on the way to morning.

Ying Nan was a little shocked when he saw this scene. This Xie Ji really dared to take action. You must know that he was going to the morning court.

After a while, crackling sounds echoed across the sky, and these sounds were accompanied by constant shouting.

When these sounds disappeared, Xie Ji's carriage came over. Seeing this scene, he got off the carriage.

When I walked over and took a look, those people saw Xie Ji coming, followed by these officials. They had arranged to go to court together, but these officials had incredible expressions on their faces, and they were particularly shocked.

"Bold thieves dare to attack the imperial officials. Wang Wu, go and catch those thieves." Xie Ji said to Wang Wu who was always beside him.

Those secret guards of Xie Ji, no, the thieves had disappeared the moment Xie Ji arrived.

Wang Wu: How can I catch you? They have disappeared long ago. They may have already gone to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

But after hearing what Xie Ji said, he still pretended to catch it. At least he did his best.

"Mr. Ying, are you okay? Don't worry, the thief can't escape from my grasp, and he will definitely give you such a bad breath." Xie Ji kindly went over and helped Ying Nan up.

He thought to himself, why didn't those people beat him for a while, and he could still recognize Ying Nan with this face.

If Ying Nan knew what Xie Ji was thinking, she would definitely collapse, no, she would already collapse.

He values ​​​​face very much and now wants to cover his face. He obviously has endless resentment towards Xie Ji, especially Xie Ji's pretentious words, which are really disgusting.

However, what was even more disgusting was that he had to accept Xie Ji's kindness: "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your kindness."

"Can you please help me take a leave of absence? I have lost my appearance today. This appearance may offend Long Yan and show disrespect to His Majesty." Ying Nan was in a particularly troubled mood now. Now, he knew that the murderer was right in front of him, but he still couldn't.

I had to greet him with a smile.

Even though this pig-headed smile made him unbearable to look at, he knew it, so he wanted to leave here.

"Your Majesty, the matters discussed today are important. You cannot be absent. What's more, if Your Majesty knew that you were attacked by a thief, you would not care too much about it. What's more, this appearance is not what the Minister meant, so how can you be disrespectful to Your Majesty?

"

Xie Ji said with a smile. When the officials behind him heard what Xie Ji said, they almost vomited out their breakfast.

Ahahaha, they really want to laugh like this, ahhahaha, forgive them for being so unkind.

The officials who were beaten felt very uncomfortable when they saw those people hiding their faces and laughing.
