Chapter 42: In a strange circle "Ah" even though he was used to seeing weird things in the officialdom, Chen Liang was still frightened and trembled.
The Hui ink being ground is broken in the middle.
"My lord, please forgive me.
This subordinate did not mean to be negligent."
He did not bother to wipe his hands full of ink, and quickly bowed to apologize, "I am going to pick up the pen and repair the book.
This, this ink is a little softer, so, so, subordinate , The subordinates are not careful."
"That's it, it's just a piece of ink, no big deal."
Hama glanced at him lightly and waved with a smile.
"No matter how precious ink is, it is still a foreign object.
If you don't use it smoothly, just throw it away.
You can't hurt people with ink.
Do you think this is true?"
"Your Excellency taught you a very good lesson."
Chen Liang knew that he had not prevaricated, so he bent down and bowed deeply again.
"I know I have made a mistake in my humble position.
Please punish me, Prime Minister."
"You've been with me for so many years, no matter what the punishment.
There's no credit but hard work."
Hama looked at him again and waved his hand thoughtfully.
"Repair your book.
You know what you should and shouldn't say to Xuexue."
"Thank you, Sir."
The summer heat has not subsided, but Chen Liang feels the cold wind rushing up his back.
He bowed again, then carefully stood at the corner of the desk and started writing with his wrist hanging.
Chahan Timur and Li Siqi were "foreign objects".
Prime Minister Hama of the Yuan Dynasty had trouble using them, so it didn't matter if they were abandoned.
This is the core point of this letter, but it cannot be made too clear.
It needs to be transformed into some more high-sounding excuses.
But it should not be too vague, otherwise if Xuexue understands the mistake, it will delay the prime minister's important affairs.
"I have been reading some of your Han books recently, and it is said that there was a famous general named Sima Ranju.
When he first took office, many of his generals did not obey orders.
So he executed several of his dear generals in accordance with the law, which shocked the whole army, and then added more Enyu, everyone is excited.
Without a bloody battle, Qi soldiers had the upper hand, and then defeated the troops of Yan and Jin."
Seeing that Chen Liang was a little slow, Hama thought for a while and reminded him slowly.
What he was talking about was the story of the famous general Sima Ranju during the Warring States Period who beheaded the supervisor Zhuang Jia to correct military discipline.
As a well-educated Confucian, Chen Liang certainly remembered it clearly.
But the current situation is completely different from the situation in the allusion.
Not to mention that Xuexue was not as talented as Sima Rangju.
Chahan Timur and Li Siqi had previously tested the Huai'an army in accordance with the orders of the imperial court.
How could it be considered a violation of military discipline?
However, as a soldier who was specifically responsible for copying and writing for the mastermind, Chen Liang did not have the qualifications or the courage to question Hama's chaotic life.
I had no choice but to bite the bullet and process the other party's fallacies and try my best to make them not look so ridiculous.
This job was a bit difficult, so he had to carefully consider every word.
As a result, before he finished writing, Hama lost his patience, knocked on the desk hard, and whispered: "Forget it, there is no need to write the letter, I'd better send someone to Xuexue's side."
"Sir, I'm a subordinate.

I'm stupid, please punish me."
Chen Liang, who joined the army, was frightened again.
He quickly put down his pen and knelt down to apologize.
According to past experience, in this case, even if he was not whipped, he would at least have to be locked up in the side room where the slaves lived and starved for several meals to get rid of the fat in his intestines.
However, Hama suddenly became kind today.
He waved his hands and said with a tired face, "Forget it, get up.
You were right to remind me just now.
This kind of thing should not be on paper under any circumstances.
Alas, I was too anxious and confused just now, and almost even "Unlucky move" "Thank you, Sir."
Chen Liang quickly kowtowed to Hama, then got up and waited carefully for the other party to assign him a new task.
Because of nervousness, my two calves kept trembling.
"Do you think it's unfair for me to treat Chahan Timur and Li Siqi like this?"
Tuotuo quickly noticed his embarrassment, glanced at him for the third time, and then asked meaningfully.
"How dare you, the prime minister, to make indiscreet opinions in a humble position?
How dare you make random comments in a humble position?"
Chen Liang's knees softened and he immediately knelt down again.
"It was only because of my decent handwriting that I was lucky enough to be appreciated by the lord and entered the shogunate.
I don't know anything about government affairs or military strategy."
"You are too modest for that," Hama smiled and curled his lips, and ordered calmly, "Get up, I'm not that unreasonable.
The fact that you can complain to Chahan Timur and Li Siqi in your heart shows that You have a clear conscience.”
It was originally a compliment, but it sounded like muffled thunder in Chen Liang's ears.
He was so frightened that he immediately kowtowed again and prayed loudly: "I, I know that I was wrong.
I really didn't dare to deliberately delay the prime minister's important event."
Hama was very unhappy to see that her kind words were actually interpreted as threats.
He went around behind him and kicked Chen Liang hard on the butt, shouting loudly.
"Get out of here, do you still expect me to help you?"
"Yeah" Chen Liang joined the army and was kicked to pieces, but he was relieved.
He rolled forward a few times and climbed up hurriedly, with a smile on his face, "I don't dare to do it.
I get up on my own."
"You boneless bastard, how can you be of any use with a look like this?"
Hama despised this man's lack of integrity in his heart, pointed at his nose, and ridiculed loudly.
"I am in a humble position with little talent and little knowledge.
I am satisfied if I can help the Prime Minister.
I never dare to ask for any great use."
Chen Liang raised his neck like some kind of dog, trying to make Hama's fingers as comfortable as possible.
If he had a tail stuck in his butt right now, he would be ready to wag it on the spot.
"You have no ambition," Hama continued to scold.
However, in my heart, I felt that the other party was loyal and commendable.
He shook his head and whispered: "I am currently short of useful people.
I am not a sycophant like you."
"It's a humble position, humble your position as much as possible, and try to understand your shame and then be brave."
Chen Liang heard this and quickly raised his hands again.
"Go fuck yourself, you know your shame and are brave now, what's the use of you?"
Hama was so angry that he slapped Chen Liang again.
Immediately, he felt that he was not dignified enough and would weaken the other party's loyalty.

So he sighed again, called the other party's cousin and asked: "Jing Ming, how many years have you followed me?"
"Eight years, nine and a half years, right?"
Chen Liang put away his charming smile and raised his hand in reply, "I don't remember the humble position very clearly.
Anyway, the humble position is living in the capital with no one to turn to.
Thanks to the Prime Minister's appreciation, I can be where I am today."
"It's been almost ten years, that's really a long time."
Hama was very talkative today, taking a long breath and commenting in a low voice.
"People say that you are a third-grade official of the prime minister's porter, so I should make some arrangements for you."
"I am in a humble position with little talent and little knowledge.
It is God's blessing that I can copy and write for you, sir.
I will never dare to ask for any more official positions."
Chen Liang was surprised and happy when he heard this.
He took a few steps back and planned to kneel down and kowtow to express his gratitude.
"You're actually not as unbearable as you say when you stand and talk, it's just that your bones are a little softer."
Hama glared at him and frowned slightly.
"Yes, sir."
Chen Liang's kneecaps, which were already halfway down on his knees, immediately straightened up like the shock-absorbing plates under the carriage.
Hama was amused by his reaction and smiled slightly, then continued to shake his head and sighed, "Although your bones are a little softer, you are cautious by nature.
Your vision is not too bad, and your reactions are sensitive enough.
In addition, after following me for so many years, you It is extremely rare to be able to maintain some sense of conscience."
"This, this, this is a good cultivation by adults."
Although he knew clearly that Hama was praising him, Chen Liang felt his ears were hot and his back was cold.
He hesitated and responded hesitantly.
"Haha" Hama shook his head and laughed again, and then whispered, "Xuexue is short of a judge of the General Administration, you can fill it tomorrow.
By the way, bring him my thoughts tonight."
"My lord, my lord's grace, subordinate, subordinate."
Chen Liang was hit by a big pie falling from the sky and stars appeared in his eyes.
For a moment, he even forgot to kneel and kowtow, and stared at Hama blankly, speaking incoherently.
Hama didn't care about this with him.
After thinking about it, he continued: "You don't need to thank me, and I don't need your reward.
Xuexue is as timid as you, but he is a daredevil.
Sometimes he just cares about things.
In front of me.
Sometimes, I can’t distinguish the situation.
He has opened his eyes wide and jumped into other people's traps, so I sent you to be his judge because of your timidity, cleverness and conscience.
If one day he encounters big trouble, you will be there.
Remember to help him find a way out, and you will be repaying me."
The last few words he said were extremely solemn, and there was a hint of "entrusting the orphan" to him.
Chen Liang, who joined the army, was shocked and frightened when he heard this.
His eyes were red, and he raised his arms and swore loudly, "I'm humble, I swear to God, I would rather risk my life to protect Master Xuexue.
If I don't keep my word, I will be punished by God."
"Thunder struck" "I believe you, otherwise, I wouldn't have sent you to assist Xuexue."
Hama smiled kindly at him and waved his hand gently, "You go down and have a rest.
After you get married tomorrow morning, you can set off.
Remember to bring a few more people with you, the road has been a bit rough lately.”

"Yes, I humbly obey my orders."
Chen Liang handed over his hands with red eyes and turned to leave.
After one foot had stepped out of the door, he turned around hesitantly and asked in a very low voice: "Prime Minister, has the matter really reached the point where nothing can be done?
I am humble, I dare not live up to the trust of the Prime Minister.
But , But humble job, humble job is gone like this, it’s inevitable that I will feel uneasy.”
"I say you are a conscientious person, but you are really a conscientious person."
Hama sat on the chair and smiled slumped.
"It's not that bad, but I have to prepare for a rainy day.
Do you know how my predecessor, Lord Tuotuo, died?"
"He, didn't he die at the hands of Butcher Zhu after he was dismissed by the emperor?"
Chen Liang didn't know how to answer, lowered his head and asked in a low voice.
"Nonsense."
Hama smiled and shook his head.
Unknowingly, there were tears in the corners of his eyes.
"It was Zhu Butcher who killed him.
He was clearly a civil and military official of the Manchu Dynasty.
Do you know that when I succeeded him as prime minister, there were still many people in the treasury.
How much money do you have?
Let me tell you the truth.
Let me tell you, thirty-four thousand five hundred and twelve guan, this is the number of imperial concubines in the entire Yuan Dynasty.
If I hadn't ruthlessly confiscated the homes of Brother Tuotuo and some others, let alone dispatching troops and generals.
Even the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty sent out a salary even once was not enough”:
