Chapter 56 The Book of Rites
Li Chu carefully put away the silver needles on the cuffs, turned over and dismounted with a sneer, didn't he want to fight with himself?
Coincidentally, Zhou Yongnan's carriage also arrived at this time, he called the general several times, and hurriedly rushed to him to gasp: "It can be regarded as catching up with the general." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
"Prime Minister Zhou, is there anything wrong with being in such a hurry?" Li Chu looked at him puzzled, he was in a hurry just because he missed the appointment with Li Jingyao, so which one was in a hurry when the four princes and Zhou Yongnan were crazy?
"It's not the new candidate for the Ministry of Rites, but I heard that the fourth prince recommended Wang Meng, a distant relative of Zhao Tianshu, the secretary of the Criminal Department!" Zhou Yongnan finished speaking in one breath, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, and when Li Chu saw this, he pointed to the noon doorway, "Prime Minister Zhou Cheng, don't worry, let's talk while walking." β
"I'm just afraid that the general doesn't know, so I specially rushed up to tell you, so that the general wouldn't be pleasing to the eye, so he helped the fourth prince speak. The emperor trusts the general so much, if he doesn't get it right, he will let the trick of the fourth prince succeed! After Zhou Yongnan said this, it was obvious that everyone was a lot more relaxed, and Li Chu smiled faintly and was noncommittal.
Entering the imperial study, Wang Meng was really there, with a beautiful face and favorable demeanor, but those eyes were too utilitarian and uncomfortable to look at.
Li Jingyao lazily leaned back on the dragon chair and asked, "Chaozong, what do you think?" β
Although he named and said who it was, but the people in the hall understood it very well, and Li Chu bowed down and said, "It's okay." β
"Are you alright?" Li Jingyao said in surprise, and Li Chu nodded, "It's okay, it's okay only." β
"Is there a better one?"
Li Jingyao asked, Wang Meng was not frightened, but Zhou Yongnan was excited, he thought that Li Chu would be able to seize a few opportunities to arrange his own people in, but he never expected that Li Chu would say this: "There is no better, even if it is good, I am afraid that I will not live for a few days, so I can barely make do with it." β
Li Jingyao nodded, raised his hand and said, "I think you have a point, so be it." β
"The emperor thinks twice! The old minister thinks this matter is inappropriate! Zhou Yongnan suddenly spoke, took a step forward, and said in a burning voice, "The position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites is very important, if you just find someone to sit in this position, then what should other capable people think?" β
Li Jingyao looked at Zhou Yongnan with a smile and a smile: "I and Chaozong are talking about this crab recently, where did the prime minister think of it?" β
Zhou Yongnan was stunned by Li Jingyao's words, and was speechless, so he paused and said stupidly: "The old minister thinks that after talking about crabs, he can also talk about ......."
"Prime Minister, I will also send someone to send some to the Prime Minister's Mansion at that time, if there is nothing to do, just step down, I am a little tired." Li Jingyao didn't give Zhou Yongnan a chance to speak, and Zhou Yongnan was so angry that his face turned red.
At this time, Sheng Zhe and the fourth prince pushed and rushed into the imperial study, and the fourth prince shouted: "Brother Huang, I can't help it!" I can't help it! β
Li Jingyao showed an even stranger gaze: "What can't you do?" β
The fourth prince pushed away the sheng fold, glared at him angrily, and then saluted Li Jingyao and said: "What Song Chaozong said is not credible and unusable, he just can't see the good of others, and the imperial brother must not fall for him." β
Zhou Yongnan was not angry now, turned his target to the four princes, gritted his teeth and said, "The four princes are outside, can they also know what happened here?" Could it be that you have a tailwind ear? But the ears of the fourth prince are more than the old man's, and the emperor and the general are discussing crabs. β
The fourth prince was stunned, his face turned from white to blue, and then from green to red, glanced at Wang Meng and then at Li Jingyao, and laughed twice without answering.
"Okay, I'm really tired, you all stand down." Li Jingyao said as he got up, supported by Sheng Zhe, and walked down the stone steps.
"Brother ...... Emperor"
"The Emperor's ......"
Li Jingyao waved his hand, didn't listen to them at all, and slowly walked out of the imperial study, and the fourth prince saw Li Jingyao leaving, and rushed to Wang Meng with a flash of footsteps: "How?" β
Wang Meng glanced at Li Chu and Zhou Yongnan, but the fourth prince didn't care, and asked bluntly, "What is it?" That's it. β
"I don't know...... Listening to the emperor's meaning, it should be me. Wang Meng said and looked at Li Chu, Li Chu smiled faintly, hugged his fists and said, "Congratulations to the fourth prince." β
The fourth prince was made creepy by his smile, frowned and was about to say something, but Zhou Yongnan had already pulled Li Chu out.
"I really don't understand, what a great opportunity just now, why did you ...... I really don't understand, what the hell do you mean? Let's not talk about who recommended him, just talking about ability, does he Wang Meng have that ability? Zhou Yongnan was so angry that his beard flew up.
Li Chu smiled slyly, and said: "Yes, the reason why the emperor can control him because he doesn't have this ability, we can pull him down from his high position." β
"You have a point!" Zhou Yongnan was pleasantly surprised, then looked at him for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "But why don't you just send our people to this position?" Isn't that a hassle? β
"If you can pull the fourth prince into the water because of this, you have to do it no matter how troublesome it is, and it will not be wasted at all!" Li Chu smiled meaningfully, and Zhou Yongnan turned the corner and laughed along.
The fourth prince and Wang Meng happened to pass by them, and when they saw Li Chu's mysterious smile, they were flustered.
"Then dare to ask the general, have you thought of a countermeasure?" Zhou Yongnan asked.
Li Chu nodded and said: "This matter has to be considered in the long run, and if you do it well, you can naturally hit the four princes hard, but if you don't get it right, you will lose everything." β
"That's, that's, if the general needs the old man's help in something, even though the old man is very willing to help." Zhou Yongnan said that he was going to salute Li Chu, but Li Chu was startled, and hurriedly stopped him and said, "Prime Minister Li Chu can't afford this big gift, don't bother Li Chu." β
Li Chu looked at the old man in front of him, he was really helpless, a generation of prime ministers didn't even want face in order to bring down the four princes.
But also, he is old, and he can't stay in this court for many days, and if he doesn't fight for himself at this time, how will his future heirs touch his light.
"Childe came out so soon?" Jin Yuan led the horse in front of him and whispered, "I seem to have seen Zishan just now, and I don't know if it's an illusion." β
"Are you sure?" Li Chu patted the horse's head and asked distractedly.
Jin Yuan shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, as soon as he saw me, he hid like he saw a wolf and a tiger, not like Zishan's usual style." β
Li Chu twisted his eyebrows and pondered for a while, then raised his eyes and said, "Go back first, if there is a need, Zishan will come to me." β
