Chapter 5: Li Er, who failed to recruit him
At noon, Qingyunguan, Ye Lin sat on the stone platform in front of the gate and dozed off boredly, and Ziyi had already fallen asleep early, this was because Ye Lin added blood-replenishing and sleep-aiding herbs to the meal, of course, Ye Lin didn't tell Ziyi, and there was no need to tell her at all.
"Daoist Ye, I'm here to bother again!"
Ye Lin raised his head, and several figures came to Ye Lin, led by the man surnamed Li from yesterday.
"It's Lord Li! The trail is polite," Ye Lin got up and said.
Li Er said in front: "This is Daoist Ye who proposed the method of water control, Daoist Ye and the three of them are all my friends, and they were only able to be convinced by Daochang, so I came to visit."
Ye Lin touched his nose, "What kind of material is that!" It's just a little suggestion from me, Li Shizhu has broken the trail."
"Ye Daochang is too modest, I waited until I read the case of water control written by Ye Daochang, and I thought that now the imperial court can't even do half of what the Taoist said, it can be seen that Ye Daochang has a deep study of water control" Fang Xuanling, who was standing behind Li Er, said.
Ye Lin looked fixedly, it was a middle-aged man with a long beard and a square face.
"This brother Fang and that brother Du have been working with the imperial court to control the water recently, so I have such a big feeling after reading what the Taoist chief wrote," Li Er said next to him again.
"Yes, natural disasters are ruthless, but the Dao Chief's advice has helped me a lot!" Li Ershen said.
Ye Lin had a headache, he really didn't want to ink with these ancients, so he said: "If you don't have anything else to do, let's go, I don't know much about floods, just a little advice."
Ye Lin said that he was about to get up and leave.
"Daoist Ye wait, I still have one more thing," Li Er grabbed Ye Lin and said.
Ye Lin turned his head, and Li Er spoke: "Do you want to be a leader?" If the Taoist is willing to go out, our family still has some relationship with the imperial court, and the Taoist can be a high-grade official, the Taoist is Chang'an City, and a high-grade official can't be won by many people. ”
Ye Lin frowned and asked, "Being an official?" What officer? ”
"I heard that the imperial court is going to set up a relief department to be responsible for flood control, and my family can be a deputy secretary of the Baodao Chief! At least the Sixth Rank Official," Li Er said after thinking about it.
"Six pins? Sixty stone rice? ”
Li Er opened his mouth and smiled: "It seems that the Taoist chief knows me very well, that's right!" The six-grade official is no more, no less, it is sixty stone Lu rice"
After that, Li Er and the others looked at each other a few times and said: This Taoist priest knows so much about Yulu, I am afraid that he has long had the idea of becoming a leader, and I think that there have been talented people who are willing to die of old age in the deep mountains throughout the ages.
"Don't go!" Ye Lin gave Li Er and the others a big white eye, the sixth-grade official, the brother is a traverser, even if he is an official, he must be above 10,000 people. Besides, in history, Li Lao Er's hair was notoriously picky, especially during the Zhenguan period, the implementation of frugality, the official's money was cut and cut, and even Li Lao Er had only one dish for his own meal, and going to Li Lao Er to be an official was not to ruin his good future, so Ye Lin decisively refused to solicit.
"What! Not going? Ye Daochang, do you really want to die in this bamboo forest, so that your talent is wasted? Li Er asked.
"Forget it, Master Li, poor Dao is lazy by nature, not suitable for officialdom, and now that the saint is virtuous, and the talents around him are like clouds, being an official is really not a good choice" Ye Lin refused.
"In the eyes of the Taoist chief, controlling the water is just a trivial matter, and the six-rank official can't beat the Taoist chief, I don't know what is a big deal for the Taoist chief? Now there are Turks outside the court, and the thief's heart is not dead; There are traitors and thieves in the family who try to change the world and change the world; Although there are many talents in the imperial court, it is a pity that there is a great drought in the south, and there are frequent floods in the north, and the victims are everywhere, are these not big things in the eyes of the Taoist chief? The eldest grandson Wuji, who was dressed in a green robe, stood up and asked.
Ye Lin was stunned, sat on the steps of the door and said: "The relationship between the two Khans of the Turks is not good, Ji Li takes the benefits, but does not share them with the Turks, with the character of the Turks, there will be a war between the Eastern and Western Turks soon, these two brothers are guarding against the Tang Dynasty at the same time, they must also guard against their own people, these two Turkic wolves look at each other unpleasantly, they will ignore the development of the Tang Dynasty, and when they are finished, the losing side will definitely seek the blessing of the Tang Dynasty, and in the future, the Holy Lord will control a vicious wolf to clamp down and eliminate another vicious wolf, The Turks are no longer a threat to the Tang Dynasty.
As for the family, although it is also a hidden danger, as long as the current saint reigns for one day, the soldier points out, the family can only stand meekly with the Tang Dynasty, without the help of the family, those so-called rebels will not be disgraceful rats.
As for natural disasters, although disaster relief is tedious and difficult, but these will pass, I am just a little Taoist priest in Qingyun, the disaster did not happen in Qingyun Temple, then these are all small things for me, I am a lazy person, the Tao is inaction, if there is nothing else, go back"
Ye Lin stretched his waist and waved his hand to a few, turned around and was about to leave.
Li Er and the others were shocked, Ye Lin stopped and asked Li Erdao: "I don't know if Master Li's business is much in Chang'an?" ”
"Ahh A lot, my family's business is in Chang'an," Li Er came back to his senses.
Ye Lintou sighed and said, "Poor Dao calculated a hexagram last night, and there will be a locust plague in a while, which should be quite big." Master Li Shi be careful, I'm a country man, I can't change anything, even if I say that the court won't believe it, if Lord Li Shi believes me, make some preparations as soon as possible, and it will be too late to warm up in the middle of summer."
After Ye Lin finished speaking, he closed the door of Qingyun Temple, and Li Er and the others woke up from their shock.
Li Er gritted his teeth and looked at the closed gate and said: "Auxiliary, this Taoist priest said: The Eastern and Western Turks are going to fight, and the Jili Khan and the Turki Khan are brothers!"
He also said that there was a locust plague, and Chang'an had not had a locust plague for more than a hundred years."
"But Your Majesty, one thing he said is right, those families are indeed the hidden dangers of the Tang Dynasty," Du Ruhui, who had not spoken, suddenly whispered.
Li Er flicked his sleeves and said, "After the auxiliary machine goes back, contact the Turkic Tanma, if it's not right, I'm here to Qingyunguan!" ”
Li Er looked at the closed door again, turned his head and left, and the three of them hurriedly followed.
Guannei, Ye Lin smiled, in the midsummer of the ninth year of Wude, Chang'an, Kyoto and other places were affected by locust plagues, and it is definitely not a trivial matter to be recorded in such a detailed disaster in the history books, and now it is two months away from the midsummer of Chang'an. He is just a rural Taoist priest, and all he can do is to store more food to protect Qingyunguan, and leave the rest to the wise Li Er.
