Chapter 53: The first intimate encounter with Li Er
Obviously, that beautiful dream was shattered. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Luo Yan's tossing and turning did not gain the mercy of the system. Although it was said that there was no reward for the task of adding fragrance to the red sleeves, it was not stated whether there would be a punishment.
No, when Luo Yan was full of thoughts, the long-lost system prompt came.
"In view of the host's complete failure in the mission Red Sleeve Fragrance, a punitive task is issued: copy the Analects five times, and be single for five years. The time limit is three months, there is no reward for the success of the mission, and the failure of the mission deprives the host of any ability that it has mastered. ”
Luo Yan didn't care about it anymore, and began to wail vigorously. The tragedy of the little girl Ying'er a few months ago was repeated on herself, which is really tragic. And the punishment of this task is just too much. The ability that Luo Yan has now, how can I say this, the ability to eat is also an ability, but some of the ability to be ashamed is also an ability. According to the virtue of the system, who can guarantee that they will be particularly lucky.
Looking at this time limit again, Luo Yan is also drunk. How many 10,000 words are there in the Analects, Rao is now Luo Yan's calligraphy level has made great progress, but copying it five times, it also takes a lot of time, three months, Luo Yan has a premonition that he has to secretly copy books when compiling books, just like copying homework in middle school.
As for being single for five years, it's easy to say. Now the imperial court only stipulates the lower limit of the age of marriage, and this upper limit is something that the elders have to worry about. In Luo Yan's heart, his elders are only the old master Lu Deming and the righteous brother who is far away in Luzhou. If you want to shirk your marriage, as long as Luo Yan says that she still wants to work her studies, she will definitely be able to fool the past.
His thoughts were successfully diverted by the system's prompts, and Luo Yan didn't think about the matter between him and Liu Qingyu anymore. Gain a firm foothold in this treacherous era, let's talk about it. Luo Yan reluctantly comforted himself.
The next day, Luo Yan began to go to work in earnest, but the atmosphere in the Editorial Hall was different.
Since last night, although Luo Yan has not taken the limelight of the entire celebration banquet, he has obviously been recognized by Li Shimin, which is much more important than joining Li Shimin's camp in general.
In one is, Luo Yan's ideals copied from the later generations of Confucianism. For today's literati, this is basically the goal of their life. But such a grand goal was actually put forward by such a young descendant, and among the scholars, Luo Yan's status was improved more than his previous uproar.
Therefore, when Luo Yan arrived at the Editorial Institute the next day, many Confucian scholars who had previously held their own identities came to greet him.
These people are so simple, they admire you maybe just because you said that. And before that, he will unceremoniously give you a look.
The salary has changed a lot, but Luo Yan's work has not changed at all, and he is still holding books and inquiring about various information. Of course, at this time, Luo Yan was purely to complete the task, and then squeeze out some time to complete his punitive task.
It doesn't feel good to copy a book, especially this kind of copying a book that requires a hurry.
Ten years have passed, and the progress of Luo Yan's copying of books has only been completed with less than one. This result made Luo Yan want to cry a little.
However, the highlight came when he was resting, and the old master Lu Deming told Luo Yan the next night that he was going to the Qin Palace, where he was going to meet Li Shimin.
Without him, Li Shimin personally summoned him.
This kind of thing, recently that Chang Huai'an has such an honor, it is said that after seeing Li Shimin, he was immediately appointed as a secretary of the Qin Palace, and his official rank was actually a little higher than Luo Yan.
Hearing the news, Luo Yan had a kind of idea that reading was useless, Nima was tired of studying, and he didn't see such a good treatment after taking the Jinshi A-class exam, and this opportunity was a world of difference compared to himself.
However, Luo Yan's idea was reprimanded by Lu Deming. "Chad is in a high position, but he does not have the ability to do it, and this kind of luck is something we despise. Think about it for yourself, now give you a Chinese book order, can you do it? "Well, his teacher's words must be the most lethal, so Luo Yan had no choice but to stop thinking so.
As for seeing Li Shimin today, it was actually Li Er who wanted to talk to him about his seawater salt. Du Fuwei had arrived in Chang'an a few days ago, although his subordinate Li Zitong was still trying to do something, but he was destroyed before he even got out of the gate of Tongguan. At this moment, the Jianghuai region is basically stable, and the matter of drying salt in the sea can naturally be launched.
Things have dragged on for so long, and Li Shimin wants to take advantage of his big victory on the battlefield to see if he can get a piece of the pie. Although Li Shimin had heard of Luo Yan's previous very shady method, the temptation was too great, and he couldn't give it up.
So today, I asked Luo Yan, the party.
Unlike usual, Li Shimin did not pull out all his aides who were politically wise against the sky, but met with Luo Yan alone.
After the salute, Luo Yan sat down on a chair under Li Shimin's humility. There is no need to stand or kneel to answer Li Shimin's questions, which is what Luo Yan is particularly satisfied with Li Shimin. At least it's an attitude that makes people feel comfortable.
"Luo Qing is the most clear about the new salt making method, and when I came today, the people of the world just wanted to ask Luo Qing's opinion." After getting straight to the point, Li Shimin's attitude was very low. This made Luo Yan a little flattered, without him, Luo Yan felt that his identity was not enough for Li Shimin to do this.
In Luo Yan's heart, stealing what he shouldn't get is a very terrifying thing, because it is likely to leave him dead without a place to bury.
"Your Highness is really too polite, the kid is just a conclusion made by accidental observation, it's good if it can be useful to His Highness, how can there be any opinions."
Luo Qing doesn't have to hide it too much. In fact, the people of the world invite you here today to ask if we can get a piece of the benefits of this new type of salt making. Li Shimin said very nakedly. This also shows a problem, that is, he treats Luo Yan as his confidant to talk about this matter.
Luo Yan understood Li Shimin's attitude towards himself in his heart, and he was also a little happy in his heart.
"Sooner or later, it's Your Highness, so why rush it. Those who do not seek a lifetime are not enough to plan for a while, His Royal Highness is familiar with military books, how can he be blinded by a few villains who are eager for quick success. Luo Yan knows very well that in fact, this is Li Shimin's own reluctance to benefit from seawater salt, Li Yuan has always been more partial to the crown prince Li Jiancheng, so whether it is talent or money, Li Shimin will do it himself, and the difficulty is naturally not low, so the pressure is also great.
Li Shimin sneered and said: "Yu Ji's room has always said that Luo Qing's military ability is not triggered, I thought it was just an excessive compliment, but I didn't expect it to happen." ”
Li Shimin refers to Luo Yan's use of the words in "The Art of War" to persuade him. Of course, it does not mean that Luo Yan has military wisdom after reading a few military books. But Luo Yan's wisdom does have the ability to be called military wisdom, and having military ability and being able to lead troops to fight are two different things.
Of course, this is also Li Shimin's conscious praise of Luo Yan. There can be a few who can not be moved in the face of huge interests. And listening to Luo Yan's meaning, it is completely that he has to sit in that seat in the end.
Just this sentence, Luo Yan's attitude is already very clear, so there is no need to say more about this matter.
"Luo Qing has thought about changing his seat to do new things." This is Li Shimin going to give Luo Yan benefits.
Luo Yan didn't want to be targeted by Li Jiancheng and these people too early, Du Ruhui had already been taken away by Li Yuan, and Fang Xuanling was also about to die. If he is pushed outside because of a small job transfer, then the plan to enter Li Shimin's core strategist layer will be in vain.
"The kid doesn't want to be the second Du Ruhui." Luo Yan said it very bluntly.
There are two meanings to these words, one is that Luo Yan bragged a little and said that his ability was no worse than Du Ruyan. The other is to express the idea of not wanting to be targeted too early.
Speaking to a smart person like Li Shimin, he is his own person anyway, and some words can't be too winding, to put it bluntly, everyone is more relaxed.
After thinking about it, Li Shimin nodded: "It's okay." It's just, and then the gathering of the Literature Museum, let's follow Assistant Teacher Lu when you enter it, and I will naturally send someone to say hello to the Editorial Academy. ”
Of course, now that Luo Yan can participate in the gathering of the Literature Museum, it is naturally extraordinary. However, he was not worshiped as a bachelor by Li Shimin, in fact, Luo Yan was too young, and he had not undergone more tests, so Li Shimin naturally did not dare to be too aggressive. Being able to let Luo Yan sit in on the audit naturally also gave Luo Yan high expectations, at least, much higher than Chang Huai'an.
Now Luo Yan is relieved, compared to the front, this is already a great progress. Moreover, there is still a long time, and Luo Yan believes that he can prove to Li Shimin that his choice is right.
Luo Yan thought for a while, and then warned Li Shimin: "Your Highness, still think about it, after the room is gone, how to lay out some stalls." In addition, I am afraid that in the near future, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will personally rebel, and how His Royal Highness will deal with it, I guess there is no need to worry about the kid. ”
This can be regarded as Luo Yan's pretending to be a magic stick. These two things are exactly what Luo Yan saw when he looked at the history books in his head. said it in advance, just to let Li Shimin know his foresight of the situation. This is a very important ability to foresee the future, even if it is more general, and the battle for that position may be able to turn defeat into victory.
Li Shimin was stunned, the prince was prepared to recruit him personally, but Fang Xuanling still didn't think about being released. After all, Li Yuan had already released a Du Ruhui, so he wouldn't be so desperate.
Although Li Shimin still didn't believe it, it was not good to hit Luo Yan's self-confidence, so he could only smile and say that he wanted to consider it.
Seeing that Li Shimin looked unimpressed, Luo Yan smiled in his heart. The more you don't believe now, the more you will rely on me in the future. Then he said goodbye to Li Shimin and left.
