Chapter 71: Li Yifu vs Shangguan Yi
Since it was the emperor and empress who were temporarily stationed, the courtyard where they lived was naturally the best in Hongnong, which was originally a house vacated by a wealthy family. Li Zhi is in good spirits these days, although he still has to deal with government affairs personally on the road, and Empress Wu is impatient and tired because she is pregnant again, so she naturally lets go. So, when Han Quan and Wang Hanchao were facing the saint, they encountered a great opportunity with no one to interfere.
They had a good chance inside, but Li Yifu, who was waiting outside, was full of bad feelings. He can also be regarded as an ear report, not long after Han Quan and Wang Hanchao entered, someone gave him a message, but who knew that he was stopped outside in a hurry. That's not all, when he was about to go to see Empress Wu, Shangguanyi suddenly appeared, and insisted on pulling him to discuss a poem he had just written yesterday. When it was easy to come to an end, Li Ji suddenly came out of nowhere and talked to him about the Goryeo war again.
was able to fight his way out of many officials to achieve the position of prime minister, Li Yifu was certainly not a fool, he instinctively sensed that something was wrong, and regretted wasting his time. Shangguan Yi is now just a secretary and a young eunuch, and if he just brushes his sleeves away with a tough attitude, he will naturally not be careful, but as soon as Li Ji comes now, the situation will be different immediately.
Who is Li Ji? Sikong, the third product under the same Zhongshu door, the number one person in the military, in terms of qualifications, I am afraid that he is still above Xu Jingzong! If he Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong were the heroes of the canonization of the martial arts back then, then it was Li Ji's words that made the emperor completely lose his worries, and this credit is definitely not less than his Li Yifu! And the other party's every word is high-sounding, he doesn't even have a chance to accuse the other party of delaying time!
When Xu Jingzong entered the courtyard, he saw such a strange scene: Li Ji was talking endlessly about the battle situation in Goryeo, Li Yifu was scratching his ears and cheeks while listening, and Shangguan Yi next to him was chanting poems under the tree on the side. The early morning sunlight shone on these three people, gilding all three of them with a layer of gold, Li Ji in the middle was like a golden armor god general, Shangguan Yi was like a fairy descending to earth, and Li Yifu could only see the sweat of his head.
He smiled and saw that none of the three of them noticed him, so he quickly took two steps back, and suddenly turned around and walked out of the courtyard. According to reason, he should go to help Li Yifu, but this Li Yifu is too bad at being a person, and the last time he spoke in person, this guy still refused to cooperate, which made him work harder.
If it weren't for him Xu Jingzong, where would Li Yifu have such a good opportunity?
Xu Jingzong, who was relaxed, narrowed his eyes, and recalled the youthful and flawless carcass of last night in his heart, and suddenly smiled. It is said that the Silla maid is just a good taste for the hands and feet, but yesterday that was really a masterpiece, well, it is necessary to say hello to the housekeeper in the future, and then there is such a superb, no matter how much it costs, you have to buy it!
If you have money and don't spend it, isn't that a miser?
Li Xian had been observing from a distance with Li Jingye for a while, and he saw Xu Jingzong retreat a few seconds after entering the courtyard, but he seemed to be a little proud when he walked on the road, so he muttered in his heart. It was true that Xu Jingzong helped him last time, but this does not mean that there is really any substantive contradiction between Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu. So, what does this Xu Jingzong mean when Li Yifu needed help the most? Add insult to injury?
He couldn't help but turn his head to Li Jingye and asked, "Are you sure that the master and Shangguan Yi have dragged Li Yifu back?" ”
"Of course. I saw Shangguan Yi and Li Yifu discussing poetry there, and then I let my old man in. Li Jingye was also pondering Xu Jingzong's strange behavior there, and finally couldn't figure it out, "What's the matter with this Xu Jingzong wandering around in the garden?" ”
The position of Li Xian and others is the highest point of the whole garden - this is not like the rockery garden of later generations, there is no pond rockery, and it is all kinds of peonies as far as the eye can see. Xu Jingzong went around in a whole circle, but he didn't see them. This is not because Xu Jingzong is dizzy, but because he is not interested in appreciating flowers at all.
Seeing Xu Jingzong start to go around in a second circle, Li Xian began to think about whether he should go out to say hello, and when he was about to act, he suddenly heard a loud shout. At this time, he finally saw Xu Jingzong's flexible skills and old age.
I saw Xu Jingzong turn his head suddenly, and after distinguishing the direction of the voice, he immediately ran in that direction quickly, and his slightly bloated body did not stagnate at all. And the moment he was about to rush through the door, he suddenly stopped, poked his head out and looked inside, and immediately retracted, his body did not drag the mud and water, not at all like an old man.
Seeing this, Li Xian immediately dispelled the thought just now, and hurriedly appeased Li Jingye, Cheng Bohu, and Xue Ne, who was about to move, and carefully observed Xu Jingzong's reaction through the gap. At this moment, he desperately hopes that he can have a telescope at hand, so that he will not have to test the limits of his eyesight like now.
Li Xian couldn't see it clearly, but Xu Jingzong could see it clearly. Rao is a lot of years old and has gone through three dynasties, but he is still taken aback by what happened inside. I saw Li Yifu grabbing Shangguan Yi's collar, his face full of anger, and although Li Ji next to him was persuading, his posture didn't look like he was trying his best.
The reason is simple. In the morning, when Han Quan and Wang Hanchao went in to face the saint, Shangguan Yi happened to be present, and after hearing about the whole thing, he was immediately driven out by Li Zhi and played the role of the door god. Shangguan Yi, who has always regarded the king's appreciation as the highest goal, never thought that a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity would fall directly into his head from the sky - with Li Zhi's current trust in him, as long as Li Yifu falls, he will be an ironclad prime minister, and he is not a prime minister in vain!
However, in terms of poetry, Xu Jingzong, who is known as a first-class scholar in the court, also dares to stand side by side, but in terms of acting as a door god, he really doesn't have many tricks, so he can only move out of the ability to press the bottom of the box at first, and discuss poetry with Li Yifu vigorously. Li Ji's appearance shared his pressure, so he was happy for a while, and improvised a poem under the tree, and as a result, Li Yifu, who was already full of anger, finally couldn't help it.
"Shangguanyi, are you finished? Are you chanting poetry, or are you ordered to stop me? ”
Shangguan Yi has always paid attention to his appearance, how could he have ever looked so embarrassed. Fortunately, his strength was no less than that of Li Yifu, and after struggling to push it away, he angrily reprimanded: "Your dignified prime minister actually did it in such a place, it is really a sweep!" I was ordered to stop you, so what? ”
This sentence was extremely loud, not only Li Ji and Li Yifu could hear it clearly, but Xu Jingzong outside did not say a word, and even Li Xian and others vaguely heard it. At this moment, Li Xian couldn't care about his hidden figure anymore, and quickly slipped down from the other side - as soon as this kind of excitement came out, I was afraid that things were going to make a big fuss.
