Chapter 21 This woman can bend and stretch
"But it's too dangerous for you to act as an imperial lady. You act arrogantly, you are still young, you don't understand how you can distinguish a person from good from bad. If Lu Xiao is really a talent as you said, when he participates in the imperial examination, this king will send someone to take care of him, so you don't have to pay attention to it. On the contrary, you are meeting him as a civilian now, and if it is exposed in the future, maybe he will have a bad heart, but he is unwilling and unable to become your confidant. "The Lord Regent is right.
"He won't." Li Wei denied it, "With my understanding of him, Lu Xiao is an upright, humble and world-minded person, how can such a broad-minded person care about my identity!" In addition, I seem to have forgotten to tell you that he has participated in the imperial examination twice, but he has failed the list and is about to give up the scientific examination, which shows how unreliable the scientific examination system is. Otherwise, why do you think I would go to such lengths to talk to him and persuade him to come out? β
"Wouldn't it be too arbitrary to measure the shortcomings of the scientific examination system with his failure alone! He wasn't the only one who fell off the list. β
"Heh, does the prince guarantee that all the people who fall off the list have such a talent as him? Virtue and incompetence should naturally fall off the list, the imperial court does not need such a waste person, however, people with both ability and political integrity can never be on the list, and there must be something wrong with the scientific examination system. Li Wei argued with reason.
ββ¦β¦ If you must see him, you must wait until the king finds out where this man came from. Guan Qianyi had no choice but to take a step back.
Li Wei smiled flatteringly, "Thank you, Lord Regent!" Lord Wang, you really know the righteousness and wisdom is boundless! β
"Hmph, what if the king doesn't promise you to see him again?" He was in a slightly better mood when he saw her flattering, but he couldn't help but hit her.
She blinked, "I'm sure the Lord Regent will make the wisest decisions!" β
Guan Qianyi had to slander in his heart: This woman can really bend and stretch!
I always thought that she was only a little crooked and smart, or in other words, she could adapt to the identity change of an emperor and maintain the order of the court normally. However, what she said on the boat yesterday surprised him. If it weren't for the people who were transparent and intelligent, they would never be able to say those words, even the elders of the three dynasties of the imperial court would not be able to blurt out, "Everyone is turbid, I am clear, the world is drunk, and I am sober!" "As long as the interests of the innocent are not harmed, the stability of the people is not harmed, the monarchs and ministers are not disturbed, and the national righteousness is not violated", as well as the "black eats black" of clean officials and corrupt officials, etc., these truths are simple to say, but they can be easily obtained by non-comprehension people!
"Do I have more corrupt officials or more clean officials?" He asked suddenly.
Li Wei was stunned, "Huh? "How did this topic come about?
"Do I have more corrupt officials or more clean officials?" He asked again.
Li Wei then thought that he had also heard his own words, at that time he was in the debate arena, blurted out any big truth, and now he is holding this corrupt official and a clean official, what do you mean? However, judging from the fact that he actually applauded himself, what he said was quite reasonable.
"It's not easy to distinguish between corrupt officials and clean officials." She answered conservatively.
"Do I have more corrupt officials or more clean officials?" He asked a third time, and his eyes locked on her.
Inexplicably, Li Wei felt some nervousness about the exam. I am the emperor of a country, why should I be tortured by him? She replied nervouslyβ
"It is not they who decide whether they are clean or corrupt, but those in power. If I, Li Wei, have been in power for a few years, of course, I will be a clean official and a corrupt official! "Well, I can only say it once!
"Then the king will wait and see."
The regent left behind a meaningful sentence before leaving.
Li Wei lay down on the bed, looking depressed.
Li Wei thought about it for a night, and finally thought of a way to punish herself. She sued the regent that she would be in retreat for three days without leaving the palace as a punishment, and the regent obviously thought that this punishment was too light, and then Li Wei mentioned again, "I'll punish me for copying books myself, right?" How is it? I copied the "Emperor's Law" to calm my mind; second, to keep an extra copy of the book for preservation; Third, it's time to practice calligraphy; Fourth, in the process, we can also learn and learn from the wisdom left by our ancestors, and ensure that we will not make the same mistakes again! What do you think! It's a quadruple win! β
The regent seemed unable to refuse her arguments, so he nodded, but added three more days.
Li Wei gritted her teeth and agreed.
However, she overestimated her speed and patience, and in three days, let alone copying books, even if she reads, she may not be able to finish reading the book! Three more days would be torture! Poor her, she must copy it very carefully, because the thought of the possibility of posterity taking the book to worship makes her so full of energy that she does not want to make a single typo, and she must show her best handwriting. So, at the beginning of the time, she copied and lost, lost and copied, and the progress was quite slow!
When copying the book on the third day, Li Wei almost wanted to yell at the sky - I want to leave the palace!
Well, she endured it, copying books is in such a hot mood, it's very bad.
She thinks she's exercising her own Settle and Zen Buddhism!
The mood calmed down, and Li Wei really felt much better. After practicing this chapter, Li Wei shouted towards the outside of the hall:
"Cui Yue, what time is it?"
"Back to Your Majesty, it's almost noon, do you want to pass the rice?"
"Pass, hurry up, there will be riding and archery lessons in the afternoon after eating!" Li Wei walked out of the door and saw Cui Cheng and Cui Yue standing outside the door with a stern face, reached out and touched the armor on their bodies, looked at the sunlight on their heads, and said with a sympathetic expression, "It's really hard for the two of you, you have to stand in the sun for a morning." Even the armor is hot, don't you want to rest? β
Cui Cheng Cui Yue hurriedly said, "Where is the duty of the lowly position, thank you for your concern." β
"Hey, you're so kind to me, I'm very sorry not to go." Li Wei sighed, seemingly annoyed.
The two of them were stunned for a moment, and if His Majesty was annoyed, it seemed that he would do something very surprising.
Sure enough, Li Wei sat down on the threshold, supported her chin with both hands, and looked at the left and right with a melancholy expression, "Why don't I let someone build a big umbrella for the two of you?" It is propped up on top of your head, which can shade the sun and rain, which is very convenient! β
Cui Cheng Cui Yue glanced at each other, and Cui Cheng said, "Your Majesty, don't be like this, you are terrified." β
Li Wei turned her head to look at the younger and more shy Cui Yue, "Xiao Yueyue, what do you say?" β
Cui Yue blushed instantly, and the comrades-in-arms opposite were also flushed at the moment.
Cui Yue stammered, "Your Majesty, I'm here, I'm used to it, I don't need a parasol." "He never knew that His Majesty was actually this character, today is the fourth day, and he was ridiculed by His Majesty again, but he is thin-skinned, and he has to blush every time, and His Majesty can't help but tease himself because of this!
Turning her face to the sun in the center, Li Wei squinted her eyes slightly, sensing that the two guards were a little nervous, and she smiled in her heart. Hehe, the two people arranged by Guan Qianyi are really interesting, Cui Cheng looks steady, but he is actually a cold guard who has nothing to do with himself, and Cui Yue is too young, only seventeen or eighteen years old, and he will be shy to talk to himself, the regent put this teenager in his bowl, and Li Wei feels sorry for himself if he doesn't flirt!
But is the regent trying to spy on him? Or is there some other purpose?
Duo Neng quickly brought the meal over, and Mama Bi followed and carefully accompanied Li Wei to have a lunch.
"Your Majesty is not allowed to be a picky eater." Mama Bi has always been strict with her, and she has to watch her carefully even when she eats.
"Got it, but I can't eat too much, and I'll have a riding lesson later."
"Then eat slowly, I haven't seen you like riding and archery lessons so much before, but you've been a lot more diligent lately." Mama Bi is kind and kind, this is only a woman in her twenties, how beautiful she looks, Li Wei looked at it, and suddenly wanted to be a matchmaker for her!
Wow, if you can find someone to love each other, how happy Mama Bi should be! Best of all, she doesn't have that much time to pay attention to herself! These picky eaters, staying up late, and being lazy will not be a problem!
"Eat well, what are you giggling at the bowl?" Mama Bi glared at her.
Li Wei hehehe In this way, she has to find someone who likes Mama Bi first!
