Chapter 163: One Side Temperance (7)
Glancing at Yang Daosi who was silent, Liu Ji asked softly, "Yang Daosi, what are your plans?" ”
Yang Daosi woke up from the silence, raised his head, looked at Liu Ji, and said silently, "What do you think?" ”
Liu Wei pondered for a moment, and said with some hesitation: "The emperor has already made a decision, your Yang family will inevitably go in the opposite direction from the emperor, and you can't represent the entire Yang family....... At the end of the day, you still can't change anything. ”
Yang Daosi smiled, this smile was a little free-flowing: "These... I don't want to do it now, I've my heart all my life, and at the end of my life, I just want to finish it in peace..... As for what happened after the death, I can't control it, and I don't want to care about it anymore. ”
Looking at the deep tiredness in Yang Daosi's smile, Liu Ji's heart suddenly rose a trace of sincere admiration, this kind of emotion is something he has never had, he has been fighting with Yang Daosi for so many years, losing more and winning less, but he has never served, just because of persistence and for the breath in his heart, but at this moment, Liu Ji really has to admire Yang Daosi, to this day, whether it is himself or Yang Daosi, the influence on the court is getting weaker and weaker, and the existence of the two of them has become a stumbling block for some people who want to be on top, even Zhao Zhi, Obviously, he is also preparing to form a new political force to replace himself and Yang Daosi and rebalance the situation in the imperial court.
Yang Daosi left, he came today, originally wanted to talk to Liu Yu about something, but now it seems that there is no longer any need.
"Yang Daosi is gone?"
Liu Guanghui walked into the room and nodded: "It's already gone." ”
Liu Wei said: "Did he say anything? ”
Liu Guanghui hesitated for a moment, obviously a little difficult to speak, but under Liu Ji's gaze, he finally spoke: "When Yang Daosi stepped out of the gate, he tripped over the threshold and almost fell, before leaving, he said to the child, Father, if you die a few years earlier, it would be good, sooner or later, you won't die....."
Saying such words to his father, Liu Guanghui was really a little unbearable, his voice became lower and lower, and his head drooped.
Liu Ji didn't get angry, but raised his head and laughed heartily: "Yang Daosi, Yang Daosi, you and I have been fighting for so many years, and if I can see you so ugly today, even if I Liu Ji dies immediately, it will be worth it." ”
Liu Guanghui was slightly surprised: "Father, Yang Daosi insulted you so much, are you not angry?" ”
Liu Ji said with a smile: "I have known Yang Daosi for more than 50 years, and I have been fighting for so many years, no matter who wins or loses, how aggrieved he is, he has always been that plain and unfazed nasty face, not to mention swearing words with me, the first time I saw him scolding people today, I was a little happier." ”
Liu Guanghui had a wry smile on his face, he didn't understand, but he didn't ask much.
Liu Ji looked at Liu Guanghui and said lightly: "This is kung fu and Taoism, if you can learn half of Yang Daohei, my Liu family can continue to be brilliant for decades." ”
Liu Guanghui nodded silently and didn't say anything.
Liu Wei didn't care about his son's silence, his character is like this, and... Liu Wei also hopes that his son can continue like this, and when he reaches a certain status, sometimes he is silent, and he has to go further than a person who is straightforward and fast-talking.
.............
It's another New Year.
The last day of the sixth year of Chengping.
The New Year is coming, and as in previous years, people who have wandered all over the world have rushed back to their hometowns to be accompanied by their relatives, and the lively atmosphere in Fengjing has also reached its peak, but for some people in the know, they know that this New Year, some people are happy, some people are worried, at least nearly 200 officials led by Yang Yu, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and Xiao Zheng, the governor of the political affairs, are going to spend this unforgettable New Year in their cells.
It's still the old rule, on the night of the New Year's Day, Zhao Zhi held a banquet in the palace and invited many royal relatives to gather together to celebrate the New Year.
In fact, the New Year's is just more popular among the people, in the royal family, there is no New Year's Day, on the day of the New Year, the emperor at most will gather the concubines and princesses in the palace to have a meal together, and have a lively time, but Zhao Zhi is different, he grew up in the people, and came into contact with many folk affairs, and naturally formed the same ideology as ordinary people.
Therefore, every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhao Zhi will invite as many imperial relatives as possible to the palace for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and will make a grand performance, which is probably the biggest expense of Zhao Zhi throughout the year.
Li Xun and Li Mancang entered the palace, and the streets of the palace were full of red lanterns, and many people walked in the same direction, Longyuan Square.
Some people, when they saw Li Xun, they all smiled and nodded to say hello, most of these people, Li Xun didn't know each other, and they couldn't name them, but after all, it had been several New Year's Eve in the palace, and they didn't know each other, but they were also familiar.
Li Mancang was surprised: "Dog, you have met a lot of people in the past two years?" ”
"Old man, your son has been on the battlefield twice and has made a lot of military exploits, although the official position was given by the emperor's uncle, but the title and the loose official are still there, go out, but no one dares to despise me."
"Stinky boy, don't make some achievements, your tail will rise to the sky, you will be too proud, be careful of falling on your heels."
Li Mancang scolded in a low voice, but his face was happy, Li Yi praised Li Xun several times in front of himself, saying that if the dog goes on like this, he will definitely have a great future in the future, and his son can have a good future, how can he not be happy as a father?
"Old man, don't worry, I have a few pounds and a few taels, and I know it myself, where is the capital of pride."
Li Mancang nodded with satisfaction: "You kid is a little self-aware. ”
Li Xun said this to Li Mancang while smiling all over his face, his head nodded from time to time, and greeted those who cast his eyes, this kind of hypocritical politeness is really tiring, but sometimes, you can't help but do it, otherwise when you don't know, I'm afraid you'll offend people.
Li Xun sighed in his heart, forget it, this is the seventh New Year in the palace after recognizing Li Yi, at the beginning, although he and the old man were rich, they seemed to soar into the sky, but in fact? Few people can afford their grandfather, but with Li Yi's promotion behind the scenes, he is still competitive, has made some merits, has done a few things that are not big or small, has a little reputation, and the official position is getting higher and higher, and finally attracted the attention and sideways of some people, such as last year's Chinese New Year's Eve, many people took the initiative to come over to drink and chat with themselves, climbing friendships, this is the effect of the improvement of status, dealing with these people, Li Yi sent Li Xun two sentences, handover, far away.
