Man Bao took the note and ran to the imperial city to get something, and found that the queue was very long. She estimated the time and turned around dejectedly.
Bai Shan also took the note to get something, and the two bumped into each other.
Bai Shan looked at her, then at the long queue, and suggested: "Why don't you take it back, let someone pick it up tomorrow."
Man Bao sighed, "I wanted to take it myself once."
She feels that receiving gifts is a very happy thing.
Bai Shan also thought so, but they didn't have enough time to line up. The two of them walked back side by side. Bai Shan looked around and whispered to her, "The Imperial Medical Office has been appointed. One is Imperial Physician Liu. Another one is Mr. Shi who was transferred from the household department, his name is Shi Bin."
Man Bao was stunned, and asked, "Why did you transfer from the household department? Is there no one in our hospital?"
She also looked around and said in a low voice, "I can do it too."
A smile flashed in Bai Shan's eyes, and he lowered his voice and said: "The adults said that you already have two jobs, and if you take on another job, you may not be able to keep busy. If you are the chief medical officer of the Imperial Medical Office, you have to be transferred from the Chongwen Hall." past."
Man Bao was not stupid, and immediately said: "Forget it, I will study and see a doctor in the future."
But Bai Shan shook his head and said: "It's definitely not like this, your medical skills are so good, and Xiaoyuan still wants you to pass on your medical skills. When I was replaced, they were discussing whether to let you be a doctor of the imperial medical department or be the chief bookkeeper." .”
Man Bao froze, and immediately said: "I don't want to be the master book, I want to be a doctor!"
Although the rank of a doctor is much lower than that of the master book, it belongs to the academic officer, as long as teaching is good, there are few other chores, and she does not point to the promotion of the official position of the Imperial Medical Office, so she doesn't want to manage chores, she just wants to teach.
Bai Shan nodded, "I think so too, but unfortunately I can't get in the middle of the conversation, but it doesn't matter, the order can be changed before it is made, and if His Majesty asks me later, I will speak for you."
This is the benefit of having someone in front of the emperor. Bai Shan walks in front of the imperial court, and the emperor will always chat with him. It is enough to confide a sentence or two of this meaning during the chat.
As for how it will develop, it can only depend on God's will.
Bai Shan returned to the Hanlin Academy, and after finishing the matter at hand, he went to pick up Man Bao from the yamen.
The two of them took back three notes and handed them to the family, saying, "Let the servants line up to get the things tomorrow."
Old Zhou Tou, who had already received the ceremony several times, immediately said: "I will go in person."
He smiled and said, "Anyway, we have nothing to do, so just leave this kind of thing to us."
Hearing this, Bai Shan simply handed over his note to Old Zhou, and let him go to get it together.
Liu Sanniang has no rank yet, so there is no ceremony, but old Zhoutou is very confident that she and Liru will both receive ceremony in the future.
The next day, Lao Zhou changed into new clothes on purpose, and then went to collect things with the servants of the Bai family.
And Man Bao and Bai Shan went to work as usual, Bai Shan was lucky today, he was called into the palace to attend the small court meeting just after arriving at the Imperial Academy, well, he was an observer, and occasionally made notes for the emperor.
Of course, he would not leave after the Xiaochao meeting. Instead, he hid aside and had a quick work meal with Qi Jilang, and then continued to watch the emperor in a daze.
Qi Jilang ate a little anxiously just now and felt a little choked, so he couldn't stop looking at Bai Shan.
Having worked with him for several months, Bai Shan, who had already known each other, understood, and quietly got up to touch a cup of tea for him to drink.
Si Jilang kept writing, seeing that nothing too big was happening at the moment, he could sum it up in one sentence, and took a sip of tea.
He didn't dare to drink too much, otherwise he would have to go to the toilet, and the living men should try their best to limit the number of times they left the emperor's sight.
No, it was the number of times the emperor was taken out of their sight.
Bai Shan was not needed for the time being, so Bai Shan poured some water into the inkstone and silently rubbed ink for the living man.
In the afternoon, the emperor had almost finished approving the papers, and felt a little tired, so he got up and went out for a walk, um, he called Bai Shan casually.
So Bai Shan got up to follow, and the living man got up slowly, and followed silently.
The emperor planned to play chess with Bai Shan. He found that although Bai Shan was young, his chess skills were good, a little worse than him, so they could play together.
Like Wei Zhi, he doesn't like to play chess with the opponent.
So why did he like to look for Bai Shan so many times before the imperial court
Because after several months of development, the two of them are still chess friends.
Bai Shan also likes to play chess with the emperor, because he still can't beat the opponent, but every time he plays chess, he feels that he has made some progress. This is a very challenging thing, so he likes it very much.
Gu Zhong led the people to lay down the chessboard, then took two steps back, stood aside with a smile and watched.
The emperor was very generous and let Bai Shan go first.
Bai Shan got used to it too, took the chess jar with the white chess pieces over, twisted a white chess piece first and dropped it.
The emperor liked to talk while playing chess, "I heard that your family bought you a house in the inner city as a wedding room? When are you and Zhou Man's date scheduled?"
Bai Shan answered "Yes" and said, "It will be on the eighth day of October."
The emperor nodded and calculated the time. When Zhou Man came out of the Daming Palace, there was still a month to prepare for the marriage, which was enough.
While playing chess, the emperor couldn't help teasing him, "You're an adult when you become a relative, but your current official position is much smaller than Zhou Man's. When you become a relative, who will be in charge of your family?"
Bai Shan thought for a moment and said, "Of course the two of us decide together, but I will let her."
The emperor didn't expect him to answer so seriously, so he couldn't help laughing, and said casually: "Yes, yes, you are all good ministers, just don't have conflicts at home."
Bai Shan pursed his lips and smiled and said: "I have always been on good terms with her, and there will be no conflicts."
The emperor glanced at him with a half-smile, "Really, but I still remember when I first met you in Yizhou, you two had a lot of bickering."
Bai Shan was startled, and then said embarrassedly: "We are not bickering, we just have different opinions, so we are arguing."
Even Gu Zhong couldn't help laughing out loud.
The emperor also laughed for a while, and simply said to him, "Zhou Man is a capable minister. Her talent in medicine is unmatched. I am very reluctant to part with her, so I want her to take another post in the Imperial Medical Office. What do you think?" Is it more appropriate to be a master or a doctor?"
Bai Shan didn't answer immediately, but after thinking for a while, he said: "Your Majesty, there is no shortage of officials in the court, and you also said that her greatest strength lies in her talent and achievements in medicine. The most suitable."
"But looking at the papers she submitted before, it is obvious that she has a good plan for the imperial medical office. Xiao Yuan is not even one-tenth as good as her."
Bai Shandao: "Your Majesty, she is still the editor of the Chongwen Museum, and a fifth-rank imperial doctor of the Imperial Hospital. The former, she compiles medical books, and the latter, she is under the orders of Xiao Yuanzheng."
The emperor raised his eyebrows, and understood that if it was just a plan with the same general situation, Zhou Man could still give Xiao Yuanzheng his opinion even if he didn't serve as the master book.
But the grade of the master book is higher than that of the doctor.
The emperor looked Bai Shan up and down, and asked with a smile, "Why, are you worried that she will hold a higher official position than you?"
The master book of the imperial medical department is the sixth rank, unfortunately, it is still one rank higher than Bai Shan.
Bai Shan said seriously: "Your Majesty, she is still young and needs to grow, so she can't be too tired. Besides, we are going to have a baby after we get married."
The emperor was stunned for a moment, then he looked up to the sky and burst out laughing. For the first time, he stretched out his hand and patted Bai Shan's shoulder, making a loud slap, "Okay, good boy!"
