At the beginning, Qin Shi Huang traveled to my home

Chapter 700: Xie Lingyun said he wanted to be a good official

With that proud look, he seemed to want to announce to the whole world that he, Xie Lingyun, was the originator of landscape and pastoral poetry!

"Hahaha, I knew it. I'm different. I'm a genius," Xie Lingyun laughed and boasted. He didn't feel embarrassed at all because that's what he thought.

"Brother Lingyun is indeed very talented in writing," Wang Bo and Tang Bohu also nodded.

Tang Bohu said, "But compared to me, it's a little bit inferior."

"What did you say!" Xie Lingyun looked at Tang Bohu. The two of them started arguing again, neither of them willing to give in. Although they had just called each other brothers, it was only just now.

Now it turns out that this Tang Bohu is not as good as Xie Lingyun, so Xie Lingyun is naturally dissatisfied.

Wang Bo and Li Wu looked at each other and sighed in unison. These two were both arrogant and proud, and it was impossible to make them think that the other was more powerful.

But if we let the two of them compete to see who wins, how long will it take?

The ancestors in front of the sky curtain were also speechless. Are they going to quarrel again?

The generals found this extremely boring. They thought it would be better to have a competition where there would definitely be a winner.

The loser said, even if I lose, I will not admit defeat to you.

"My two seniors, please enjoy your food. In fact, you two are both very great people in my heart," Li Wu picked up some food for Xie Lingyun and Tang Bohu.

Hearing what the immortal said, the two turned to look at Li Wu and asked, "Who is more powerful?"

Li Wu was silent. She really couldn't explain it. It was too difficult for her.

Wang Bo said slowly, "Brother Lingyun and Brother Bohu, you guys are fighting over who will win, but we don't know when the fight will end. Do you still want to ride that hot air balloon and go up to the sky to see it? If you keep fighting, how much time will you waste?"

Wang Bo said that his heart and eyes were filled with the desire to ride a hot air balloon and fly to the sky, which is a beautiful dream that many Chinese people have had.

When the two heard what Wang Bo said, they looked at each other and temporarily stopped fighting. As they thought, riding in a hot air balloon was more tempting to them.

The two of them toasted each other and said some compliments, but the smiles on their faces felt so strange.

But it doesn’t matter, as long as we stop arguing.

"Little immortal, please speak quickly," Xie Lingyun urged. They should speak quickly so that they can go out. Xie Lingyun was a person who loved to play and enjoy himself. Now that he came to the afterlife, it would be strange if he didn't have some fun.

Li Wu nodded anyway. He changed his expression so quickly. Just now they looked like they were about to fight, but now they are like brothers again.

"Senior Xie Lingyun, your trips usually last more than ten days.

You didn't care about the county affairs at all. Now, less than a year after taking office, you resigned and lived in seclusion because someone reported you.

But I'm not saying anything bad about you, Senior Xie Lingyun, you really can't do this. As a prefect, you can't just ignore everything and just think about traveling around. How can that be possible?

When being an official, no matter whether it is a high-ranking one or a low-ranking one, one must first do one's duty well.

You have to have an attitude, right? Otherwise, even if you are very talented, the superiors will not dare to use you when they see your attitude. "

Li Wu shook his head. He said, "You are the prefect, you are a high-ranking official, but Xie Lingyun just ignores everything after taking office. How can this be acceptable?"

Wang Bo and Tang Bohu also nodded, it was indeed true.

When Xie Lingyun heard the words of the little immortal, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

If other people were preaching to him, he naturally would not listen, and might even get angry, but the person in front of him was a little immortal, so he was naturally willing to listen to him.

"Little immortal, little immortal, I will change a little and will definitely do my job well," Xie Lingyun encouraged himself, but he still felt that these officials were too low.

But then I thought about it, the other people who came up to the sky curtain, like Li Bai, Du Fu, Su Shi and others, had miserable careers, even worse than his, and held lower positions than him.

Thinking of this, Xie Lingyun felt much better. It is true that there is no harm without comparison.

The Xie family members in front of the sky curtain finally breathed a sigh of relief. Xie Lingyun would not listen to their words. If he still wouldn't listen to what the little immortal said, there was nothing they could do.

"That's good," Li Wu was still willing to believe that Xie Lingyun could change.

"At that time, your cousins ​​Xie Yao, Xie Hui and others wrote letters to persuade you, Senior Xie Lingyun, but you refused to listen. You only felt that they added to your troubles."

Xie Lingyun felt a little embarrassed and indeed annoyed. All the elders and peers in the family kept lecturing him, telling him that he shouldn't do this or that. It was really annoying.

He also knew that they were doing it for his own good, but it was really annoying.

"In 424 AD, Emperor Wen of Song, Liu Yilong, ascended the throne. Liu Yilong admired your literary talent very much, so he transferred you back to the court and appointed you as the Minister of the Court, summoning you morning and evening.

At the beginning, Senior Xie Lingyun, you were very happy, thinking that you could finally participate in politics.

But later you discovered that this was not the case at all. Emperor Wen of Song only liked your poems and essays. It was impossible for you to participate in politics.

How can you bear this? This is not what you want. You want to participate in government affairs, not write poems beside the emperor."

Xie Lingyun nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. "That's right. My biggest dream is to participate in politics and make a difference in the court, not to write poetry. Besides, writing poetry is not difficult. It can be done easily."

Xie Lingyun frowned. He didn't expect that he would be appreciated by Emperor Wen of Song later. However, the other party only liked his poems, which made him feel uncomfortable.

In front of the sky curtain, Li Bai felt that he could empathize with Xie Lingyun. Xie Lingyun was his idol and had similar experiences as his idol. They felt that no one understood them at all.

"Senior Xie Lingyun, we really can't rush this matter. You want to show off your skills in the court, who wouldn't want that?

But it's not a simple matter. What do you want to do? Be a good official or a corrupt official?"

"An official must be a good official," Xie Lingyun heard this and looked at the little immortal suspiciously. He felt that the little immortal had a problem with his brain. Why would he ask such a question? An official must not be a good official. Besides, how could Xie Lingyun, Xie Lingyun, possibly be a bad official?

"Then do you know how to be a good official? Many officials don't get high positions right from the start. They all start out as small officials. Your starting point is already the end point for many people. Positions like assistant ministers and prefects are not something you look down upon, but they are the lifelong dreams of others.

You said you wanted to be a good official, so what should a good official do? And when you were a governor, that was not what a good official should do at all. "It's hard to be a good official. This is the beginning. Who doesn't want to be a good official? But later I found that it's hard to keep my original intention!!!

"I," Xie Lingyun fell silent after hearing the words of the little immortal. Perhaps the little immortal was right, he still had a lot to learn. Although the things mentioned later had not happened yet, he also knew that his attitude was not okay.

The ancestors in the barrage were all discussing the difficult path to becoming an official, especially those without any identity or background. They were very envious of Xie Lingyun. Isn’t Xie Lingyun’s starting point their end point?
