"Are you Mingkang?"
asked the leading man.
The director of the Animal Husbandry Bureau said with a flattering smile: "Yes, yes, he is Mingkang."
The man turned back: "I didn't ask you."
'Forehead… '
Mingkang nodded: "I am Mingkang."
The man found a stool and sat down, took out his notebook: "Tell me about your resume."
Mingkang stood there and said loudly: "I was elected at the age of 14 and was selected to enter the inner palace of Balong City and become a deep palace official."
"Go on. Tell me about what you did when you were an official."
"The patriarch in charge of the inner courtyard of the palace is cunning and maintains the disputes in the harem."
A flash of joy flashed in Mingkang's eyes. He vaguely understood what these people wanted to hear. He changed the topic and his tone suddenly became high-pitched: "And in this life, the most glorious thing I, Mingkang, have done is. Today, I am the president of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences. When Li Zhen passed the exam, I, Mingkang, escorted him all the way and was responsible for bringing Dean Li to Beijing to face the saint."
Mingkang is very smart.
It doesn't matter what faction or resume you talk about.
In New Kyushu, Li Zhen is a god.
When Mingkang mentioned that he had hired Dean Li, his whole body seemed to be plated with gold. This is a resume that no one dares to underestimate.
Everyone in the Animal Husbandry Bureau was dumbfounded and looked at Mingkang in amazement. They never expected that Mingkang had escorted Li Zhen.
The director of the Animal Husbandry Bureau had a wry smile on his face: "Mingkang, why haven't I heard you talk about this before..."
Mingkang didn't answer.
The man wrote twice in his notebook, stood up and said, "It's you. Mingkang, I'm from the Appointment Department, and the emperor has invited me."
'hiss-'
Everyone gasped. Looking at Mingkang in surprise, doesn't it mean that there is basically no chance of this person turning over? Doesn't it mean that this person has been suppressed all the way from the general bureau to the grassroots level, and there is basically no possibility of making a comeback
Why the sudden reversal? He escorted Li Zhen again, and was the emperor inviting him again
Escorting Li Zhen's resume is something that no one dares to underestimate. No matter which faction he belongs to, he will actually be considered as 'a person related to Li Zhen'. With such a relationship, anyone will give him some face. No one dared to let him live in such a miserable state.
——
One day later, Quancheng County.
Du Taiping summoned Mingkang and couldn't remember his name, but when he saw him, Du Taiping remembered who Mingkang was.
We used to be people who often went in and out of the inner palace. How could we not recognize each other even if we didn't look up
Du Taiping was a little surprised: "Mingkang is you."
"Prince Du, long time no see."
Du Taiping sighed: "What a great change. I heard that you were transferred to the Animal Husbandry Bureau of Weihai County? Oh, I'm sorry for you."
What kind of person is Mingkang? He shook his head quickly: "No, this is the affirmation of me by the Jiuzhou Party and the affirmation of Emperor Du. Let me train at the grassroots level so that I can take on big responsibilities in the future. Being able to delegate training to the grassroots level is a recognition of my ability. "
Du Taiping was stunned, this... How do you want him to answer this
"Ah, hahaha. Yes, yes."
Du Taiping laughed. He didn't dare to answer the call because he didn't understand everything. He didn't know what the Kyushu Academy of Sciences was looking for Mingkang, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad, so he didn't dare to get involved with Mingkang easily, let alone make Mingkang an enemy easily.
The conversation changed: "By the way. I'm not looking for you this time."
Mingkang was confused: "Isn't he the emperor?"
"Well, the Kyushu Academy of Sciences is calling for you."
Mingkang raised his eyebrows, confused.
Du Taiping asked without changing his expression: "I heard that you and Dean Li have a close relationship."
Mingkang is a good person. When he heard this, he knew that Du Taiping had no idea what the Kyushu Academy of Sciences was looking for. He was lying.
He smiled and said, "We can't talk about origins. It was just a responsibility at that time, right?"
"You and Dean Li are still in contact all these years?"
"Dean Li has a lot of things to do every day. If there is nothing important, I won't disturb him."
As soon as these words came out, Du Taiping frowned on the spot.
Mingkang was also confused, but his expression was calm and calm. He knew that this opportunity to be summoned was rare, so he would do his best to pull off the tiger's skin when he could. He didn't say that he couldn't contact Li Zhen, he just said that there was nothing important and he wouldn't bother him.
The underlying meaning can be understood as "If Mingkang can contact Li Zhen, Li Zhen will definitely help if something happens."
It can also be understood as: "There is no connection with Li Zhen."
This is correct no matter how you say it, it depends on how you personally understand it. Of course, no one dares to casually interpret it as the second meaning.
"That's it..."
Du Taiping murmured and asked again: "By the way. Is there anything that the Kyushu Academy of Sciences wants to see you for this time?"
Mingkang said calmly: "I don't know for the moment. I won't know until I go there."
Seeing that he couldn't come up with anything to say, Du Taiping gave up: "Haha, okay then. The car is ready for you, so go ahead and get busy."
"Yes, Emperor."
After watching Mingkang leave, Du Taiping looked gloomy for a while and said, "Go and check this Mingkang's background. Whatever you can find out."
"yes!"
“…”
Laoshan.
Li Zhen retreated in the house for three days. If the person who delivered the food hadn't said that Li Zhen was fine and was just in a daze, or if he hadn't finished the food every time, everyone would have thought that something had happened to Li Zhen.
Liu Jinghong and others saw this and were anxious in their hearts: "What should we do?"
"It seems that Master Li is really trapped by love."
“…”
Mingkang is here.
He arrived quietly, without disturbing anyone, and entered the Kyushu Academy of Sciences directly, where he was directly summoned by Jia Liping and others.
Seeing these people with great prestige around the world, Mingkang was honestly very nervous.
He wasn't nervous when he met Du Taiping, but he would be nervous when he came to Kyushu Academy of Sciences. He didn't know the reason either: "What do you teachers want from me?"
For the people of Kyushu Academy of Sciences, many people regard them as teachers. Yes, they are worthy of the title of teacher.
Qi Lengzi was a neat person and said straight to the point: "When you escorted Li Zhen to Beijing, do you still remember?"
"Remember."
Qi Lengzi asked again: "Do you remember that one day, Li Zhen suddenly fell asleep?"
Mingkang nodded: "I remember. Dean Li suddenly fell into a deep sleep and slept for several days."
"Yes, yes, then do you remember that Li Zhen suddenly exploded while he was sleeping. He was talking in his sleep. He yelled out directly?"
Mingkang closed his eyes and thought for a while: "Remember..."
Everyone took a breath, looked at Mingkang nervously, and asked in unison: "What did he say?"
Mingkang pondered for a while, then said thoughtfully: "He is calling someone's name."
Qi Lengzi slapped his thigh: "Look, I just said that I remembered it correctly. I just called a person's name. Think about it, what name did he call at that time?"
Mingkang murmured: "It should be a woman's name."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was excited and looked at Mingkang with bated breath.
"At that time, after Dean Li woke up, he seemed to be afraid that he had forgotten something. He was still writing something on the paper. I didn't pay attention to what he wrote. But it should be consistent with the content of the sleep talk."
"He shouted: Zhang Zhi, her name is Zhang Zhi. Her name is Zhang Zhi. I will never forget it. This time, I will never forget her name again."
