As the end of the new year approaches, the political histories from all over the country have to go to Beijing to report on their work; the Ministry of Households is busy sorting out the income and expenditure for the year, arranging the budget for the next year, and distributing additional money to officials, that is, the year-end bonus; although the remaining five departments are missing Although they have to do chores, they have to meet officials from all over the country; everyone is as busy as an untenable awl.

On the contrary, Xiao Gui was free. Most of these matters were decided by various ministers,? He usually only needed to use a batch of ink pens.

Only the financial item of the Ministry of Households, the amount is complicated, and every time the minister comes to report the details, he needs to elaborate on various items at length, and from time to time, he has to ask the little officials next to him to make plans.

However, Xiao Gui seems to be born with an unusual talent in this area, often the little official has not finished his calculations, he has already figured it out in his head, and occasionally he can even get straight to the point, merge similar items, delete redundant ones and simplify them, you can hear it Bu Shangshu was stunned for a while, holding the booklet over and over again, and it took him a long time to catch up with his train of thought.

Wen Wujue teased him with a smile, if he was born in modern times, he would be a science student with a serious bias.

At this time, in the twelfth lunar month of winter, the two sat around the stove on the high turret in the imperial city to enjoy the snow, and the curling heat was scalding hot.

Looking over the railing, the sky and the earth are all white, as if everything has ceased to exist, only the people in front of us remain.

Xiao Gui didn't understand, "What is a science student?"

This range is too large, and it is troublesome to explain,? Wen Wujue fooled him.

"It's purely for people to count."

Xiao Gui was stunned for a moment, and put the golden chopsticks in his hand by the stove, "Then if I go there, wouldn't I become a servant?"

"Everyone is equal in our side, there is no distinction."

"Anything like this?"

Wen Wujue nodded, suddenly realized that he had been here for too long, and he hadn't thought about modern things for a long time.

"In our place, there is no emperor, no nobles, and no servants. Everyone has to work, and if you don't work, you have nothing to eat."

Xiao Gui let out an "ah", and suddenly felt a sense of concern, "Then it counts, can it support me and Xiangfu?"

Seeing that he was really serious, Wen Wujue couldn't help laughing, tilted his head and thought about it, it was hard to imagine what it would be like for someone like Xiao Gui to go to work.

Probably within a few days, the boss will be fired, right?

He replied blankly, "No."

Xiao Gui was depressed for a moment, as if it was hard to accept that he really went to such an era that he would not even be able to support his own man.

He lowered his head and thought for a while, he felt that he was not bad, he could not count, at least he could still fight!

"Our side is in a peaceful age, there is no need to fight." Wen Wujue once again ruthlessly pierced his fantasy.

Xiao Gui: "..."

He pinched his father's half-smiling face resentfully, and said darkly: "Anyway, even if I die of poverty, father should not even think about running away."

The wind in the deep winter suddenly blows, making people shiver.

Wen Wujue narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly asked him, "Where have you been these few days?"

Xiao Gui: "..."

His eyes dodged for a while, and he didn't expect his father-in-law to ask a question suddenly, so he felt guilty.

Who leaked the news?

Seeing his expression, Wen Wujue knew that he was inseparable, and sighed inwardly.

He poured him a glass of sake, and said slowly: "The Longtan area in the back mountain is full of smoke and miasma. Since it has been called the Longtan and Tiger's Den since ancient times, there is a reason for it. If you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean you haven't."

Xiao Gui is young and likes to take risks, which is human nature. Wen Wujue didn't want to interfere with him too much, but all of this must be done on the basis of ensuring safety.

Xiao Gui knew he was in the wrong, so he smiled flatteringly and said, "I made a mistake, so I will punish myself with a cup."

With that said, he drank the wine in one gulp.

Wen Wujue was speechless, a glass of sake, meaningful?

He swished coldly: "You might as well take out the deer drink burning knife that you buried under the plum tree in the imperial garden and drink it."

Xiao Gui snorted, as if he saw through him, he rubbed the back of his neck with his hand.

"Is Xiangfu wanting to drink?"

Wen Wujue: "..."

He admitted it without changing his expression, "Yeah, what's the point of drinking this sake? This weather is the most suitable for drinking strong alcohol. When you drink until you're slightly tipsy, you're a little sober and a little confused. That's the most comfortable state." gone."

"Father, don't think about it." Xiao Gui said coolly, "Doctor Zhou said that your old illness is the most taboo of drinking alcohol."

Dr. Zhou is a famous doctor from the former dynasty that Xiao Gui found for him recently, but he is quite capable.

One can see the cause of Wen Wujue's old illness from a pulse.

This originally happened to the original body, many of the initial symptoms, except for Wen Bo and the original body, no one knew.It was also because Wen Wujue had read the book that he realized that what he said was true.

"Although Caomin has a good prescription, it's a pity that some medicinal materials are missing, but it's not a big problem. As long as the prime minister takes the medicine prescribed by Caomin on time, although it can't cure the disease, it can still improve by [-]% or [-]%. However, The most important one is not to drink alcohol, alcohol can overcome medicine."

He swears by what he said, after Wen Wujue took a few doses of medicine, he really felt much lighter day by day.

He sighed, "Although the body is getting better, life without alcohol makes it less interesting."

"Father Xiang and I, where is there no fun?"

Dissatisfied, Xiao Gui embraced him with a thick cloak, took a piece of lotus root from the boiling golden cauldron, dipped him in the sauce according to his father's preference, and brought it to his mouth.

In this icy and snowy place, the two of them were sweating in the end.

Xiao Gui smiled lowly and said, "It's all because Xiangfu is too cold, so he has to rely on me."

Wen Wujue glanced at him, "Who is pulling me?"

……

New Year's Eve.

The prime minister's mansion was brightly lit, and the top and bottom were cleaned up and down to give it a new look. A few freshly bloomed plum blossoms were placed in exquisite vases, which had a unique charm and a faint fragrance.

Because Xiao Xiao is the most popular candidate for the crown prince, he did not go back to Nanzhou this year, and often went to the prime minister's mansion to play on weekdays.

At first he was pestering Wen Wujue, but later he found Lu Jia who was more fun than Wen Wujue, so he pestered him every day to wield swords.

Now it's New Year's Eve, and he is deserted in the mansion by himself, so Wen Wujue asks him to come over to join in the fun and surround the fire together.

According to the usual practice in previous years, Xiao Gui should hold a banquet in the palace, and then give food to the courtiers, in the meaning of universal celebration and the kindness of the heavenly family.

But Xiao Guisu did not follow the usual practice, he gave the food early, and then declared to the outside world to keep the year.

Only Li Ling knew that everyone quietly went to the prime minister's mansion to keep a ghostly year.

When Wen Bo saw him coming, he didn't look good, but it was a pity that today was New Year's Eve, and there were taboos, so no one could swear at others.

"Hey, Eunuch Li, what kind of wind is blowing today, it brought you here."

Li Ling narrowed his eyes, if the emperor hadn't come, do you think I would like to come?

He replied with a smile on his face: "Steward Wen, you're being polite. These are the new clothes I borrowed specially when I knew I was coming? They look a bit decent when you wear them, so it's not embarrassing to the emperor."

Wen Bo's expression changed, and he was about to yell at him when he suddenly remembered today's day.

Endured it, and continued to smile with ambiguity, "It's easy to say, your master gives you so much money throughout the year, and my prime minister doesn't even have enough to buy clothes. If you don't want to embarrass your master, you can ask him to be more generous."

"Forget it, don't waste your good clothes for nothing." Li Ling waved his hands, seemingly helplessly.

……

The two stood at the hallway door and stepped on each other for a long time, neither of them could tell who the other was, and finally called out with Wen Wujue's voice, and had to stop.
