Xiao Yin said goodbye to Yue'er, and walked out of the house with ease. After boarding the carriage, Li Ling's expression instantly became a little gloomy.

Today, seven days after he entered the Ministry of Revenue to observe the government, Li Ling finally confirmed that he had made a big mistake, underestimated these Beijing officials, and missed the opportunity to turn things around in vain.

In fact, when entering the Ministry of Revenue, whether it was Dai Xiao or Lu You, Li Ling could have been completely opposed to this arrangement. After all, he was a new student, and he was not comparable to an ordinary Jinshi. He could not obey the relevant arrangements. Whether he went to meet the higher-level Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, or even went to the Political Affairs Hall or the Palace, it was enough to get a better arrangement.

However, he was also very clear that his reputation would inevitably be greatly damaged, leaving a thorn in this way, and not listening to his superior's fate would inevitably be very harmful to his future. Because Tanhualang's halo could not last a lifetime. After a year or two, no one would remember his origin again, and only people would be considered young and energetic, with high expectations and low skills. It would be difficult to make a name for himself in the court.

It was precisely with this concern that Li Ling did not have an attack at that time, but chose to obey the arrangement and endure it. Because he felt that he had a way to make the situation come back without making a noise, and could also bring down Dai Xiao and others.

The experience in Jiangcheng County made him very sure that there must be problems with the past files in the yamen, and with his own ability to check accounts, he would be able to grasp the handle of these guys, and thus make a comeback and gain a firm foothold in the yamen of the Ministry of Revenue!

At least two days ago, Li Ling was very confident that he thought so. Then he really threw himself into many past accounts and files to find even a little flaw. But after a few days, he found nothing!

No matter from any aspect, the accounts of the Ministry of Revenue are clearly organized and there is no suspicion. Especially the tax documents taken over by Dai Xiao, at least from the paper, there is no even a single mistake. He sets taxes completely according to the actual situation in various places, and has also been recognized by higher-level officials, so he can truly achieve no misses!

In the six or seven days, Li Ling looked through no less than 200 related documents, but the result was still the same, without any problem. Time passed quickly in his futile efforts, which completely lost the opportunity to turn around.

If Li Ling could have expressed his dissatisfaction in the past two days, it was his pride and honor as a new student, and his youthful spirit. Even if there are many discussions behind his back, it would be acceptable. But now, seven days have passed, and he will be fussed again, which seems a bit strange to others. This is his ignorance as an official of the court and fear of difficulties!

At that time, not to mention that the bosses of the Ministry of Revenue would not do what he wanted, even the emperor who appointed him as a bachelor's degree, would not make decisions for him, but would leave a bad impression that would be unusable.

So this time, Li Ling really shot himself in the foot. Because he had too many calculations, he actually calculated himself!

With annoyance, Li Ling's face was still gloomy when she got out of the car. When Li Moyun saw it, he hurriedly whispered: "Young Master, do you want me to vent your anger for you?" As a confidant who has been with him, he of course knew very well how much grievances Li Ling had suffered in the yamen in the past few days.

Li Ling was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head: "Don't say that you may not be able to get a bargain from the guards of Dai Wanchun and others. Even if you can do it, there will be endless troubles. Since it is a matter in the officialdom, let me seek justice for myself in the officialdom."

After saying this, he waved his hand at the other party again: "By the way, you don't have to pick me up tonight, and you also tell Yue'er and the others that you don't have to wait for me to have dinner tonight."

Although Li Moyun didn't know what he was going to do, he still agreed. It was not until he saw Li Ling stepping into the yamen that he shook the reins and pulled the cart.

Turning over the screen wall facing the gate, Li Ling saw two servants who were cleaning. He immediately smiled warmly: "Brother Li, Guangbo, good morning."

"I have seen Lord Li, but I can't stand you for such greetings..." The two of them quickly turned around and bent down to salute, with their own kind smiles on their faces. Although they said that, they were still very happy to Li Ling's greetings. It is really warm to be able to take the initiative to greet a little person like him.

Li Ling smiled while moving forward, "You two are seniors. I am a junior. I am a polite greeting. There is nothing I can't afford. By the way, I ordered some wine and food in Chunhe Tower in the inner city tonight. I wonder if you are willing to enjoy the scenery?"

"Ah..." These words both were stunned. It was really an unprecedented thing. When would the noble official even spend money to treat them to drink?

But looking at Li Ling's sincere and enthusiastic look, the two of them confirmed that they had heard it wrong, and they looked excited: "Since... since you are Lord Li, you look down on the young people so much, we will naturally not be ungrateful."

"Okay, when I declare the card today, I will wait for the two great masters at Chunhe Tower." After Li Ling clasped his fists, he continued to walk in. Along the way, he talked warmly with several servants, clerks and others, and also invited them to attend to tonight's banquet.

In those days, Li Ling certainly couldn't have spent all his time on checking accounts. After all, when he came here to observe politics, he always had some errands at hand. Of course, these errands were actually just odd jobs, just moving some account books and documents back and forth in the various departments of the Qing Lisi, or sometimes taking action after the orders of an official.

Li Ling did his best to do these trivial matters. Not only the errands conveyed by officials, but even when he saw that the servants and clerks were too busy to get busy, he would take the initiative to go up and take the initiative to help. After a while, Li Tanhua, in the eyes of the officials, had a lower status, but his reputation among the servants and clerks, and he had some friendship with many people.

So when he mentioned to them today that he wanted to invite everyone to have a drink at night, almost none of these people refused, and they all agreed with a smile.

And this scene naturally fell into the eyes of some of the same year, and was soon known by Dai Wanchun who came a while later. After listening to the other person's invigorating narrative, the ridiculous look on Dai Wanchun's face could not be concealed: "Ha...haha... this Li Tanhua really has no airs at all. He actually thought of going to invite those humble and lowly people to drink?"

"If you want me to tell me, Li Wenzhong has no choice but to regain confidence by gathering with such a small person. After all, compared to them, Li Tanhua is still an official at least." Another person said in a slight way, which caused a burst of ridicule among the others.

In total contrary to Li Ling, Mr. Dai is now truly proud. Now everyone knows that he is the nephew of Doctor Dai. This time he comes to the Ministry of Revenue to observe politics, he will have many contributions to him. Once March passes, he will inevitably be promoted. With his tenth grade in the palace examination, coupled with these political achievements and achievements that deliberately fall on him, his future will be like a flower, and it is very likely that he will be promoted directly to the head of the Qing official department.

So whether it was the same year or the elderly from the Ministry of Revenue, they tried their best to win over Dai Wanchun, and only followed his leader. Mr. Dai enjoyed this very much. Two days ago, he also scattered gold and silver to invite Zhongsong (except Li Ling) to drink and play in the city, and regarded himself as the leader of everyone.

"To be honest, Li Wenzhong and I have met each other. Now they look so hard that people can't bear it. Let's go and see him now, don't let him be so lonely." With a sarcastic smile, Dai Wanchun stood up and walked out. The other four or five people quickly followed and followed him straight to Li Ling's public room.

At this time, Li Ling had just wiped the table clean and said to Xiang Daxing: "Old Xiang, don't you dislike it, and you can have a bar with us tonight."

"This..." Xiang Daxing hesitated. He already knew who was present at the banquet tonight. They were all small people with low status and no grade level. What's the point of getting together with them?

"Why, do you have any other social engagements?"

"Then...that's not. Since you warmly invite me, I will naturally go." He was used to accepting it and agreed to it.

"Then let's just say that, why don't you go there with me later..." Li Ling nodded with a smile. Before he finished speaking, he saw the faint door being pushed open. Dai Wanchun and others stood there with a sarcastic look on his face. This made his eyebrows twitch: "What's wrong with you guys?"

"It's nothing, I'm here to see you, Li Wenzhong. I also heard that you decided to invite a banquet for many people in our Ministry of Revenue. But I don't know which adults are?" Dai Wanchun said with a smile.

"I, Li Ling, spend my own money, invite whoever I want, and what are you waiting for? If there is nothing serious about it, please come back." Li Ling didn't give them a good look at them at all. As he said, he waved his hand, just like driving flies and mosquitoes.

"You... are so brave, you dare to talk to Lord Dai like this!" When one of them saw Dai Wanchun's face dark, he immediately scolded him angrily, rolled up his sleeves and put on a stance to teach people a lesson.

As a result, Li Ling looked disdainful: "This is still a matter of politics. Are you willing to be subordinates? It's really embarrassing me to wait for the Jinshi."

This made everyone's faces turn red and their momentum became even weaker. Dai Wanchun snorted after his thoughts moved: "Li Wenzhong, I know you are unhappy, so I thought about instigating the friendship between me and you in the same year. I said a few words today because I care about you. I didn't expect you to be so ignorant of good people, so I won't say it. I just hope you don't lose the face of my Confucian disciples!"
