Li Xiao was used as a pawn.

But Li Xiao didn't care, he knew that he was being used as a pawn by Li Zhi, and people borrowed him to slap the face of the old scholars. may be a chess piece, which shows that he has use value, and he is not even qualified to be a chess piece if he has no value in these years.

At the very least, between the old scholar clan and the emperor, Li Xiao would choose the emperor very wisely. Even if this emperor is still very young, this emperor is not simple. He has only been on the throne for five years, and now he is only in his twenties, and he has successfully taken over the power.

The elders such as the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang have all honestly handed over power and left, and veterans like Li Ji and Cheng Yanjin fully support and support the emperor, and even Li Daozong and Xue Wanche are respectful to the emperor after the emperor is demoted first and then restored.

To be able to achieve such a brilliant victory, how can Li Zhi be easy to match.

The arrogant old scholars are destined to have a collision when they meet the young emperor who is full of enterprising hearts.

Li Xiao doesn't want to be the kind of two-sided speculator, since he wants to bet, he simply makes a side.

In the court, there are also many kinds of ministers.

For example, the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang are veterans and direct ministers, while ministers like Li Ji and Cheng Yanjin who were born as military generals are more cautious and are called loyal ministers. Of course, there are also people like Li Yifu, who are neither born as military generals and ministers, nor are they from famous families, concubines from poor families, and have no military merits, and rely on the emperor's super-promotion and reuse to be appointed to important positions.

Li Xiao found that his position in the court was a little awkward, and in terms of background, he was not even as good as Li Yifu. Li Yifu is still famous in the local area, and he was recruited by local officials, and then he was recommended for appointment. is about origin, the Shu family is poor, in fact, it is not an ordinary family, it is also a small landlord Xiaohaoqiang.

He Li Xiao can barely be regarded as a small landlord, but the ancestors of the family have not been officials for several generations, and they are a real mud-legged family. The path to the rank is not those right paths, neither the talent and the name are recruited, nor is it the imperial examination to enter the office, but the meritorious service of offering corn auspiciousness and being awarded the official.

The official who was awarded was an official like the corn supervisor of Sinong Temple.

Even if Li Xiao is now acting as Wang You, and concurrently serving as a secretary and a young eunuch, it can be said that his grade is getting higher and higher, but in the eyes of others, he Li Xiao has become more and more of a fortunate minister.

Even because of his toughness with the Cui family, he broke up the famous family Cui Zhiyi, and was attacked by those scholars who called themselves Qingliu.

Li Xiao woke up a little late in the morning.

Last night, Wan Niang went to sleep in the east wing, and she had to let the moon slave serve in the main room.

This night, Li Xiao didn't sleep well. The moon slave is dressed up very well, and he doesn't even wear something cool, and some of the shy ones want to warm the bed.

The wife is in the east wing, and the moon slave is also arranged by the wife, so she can enjoy it with peace of mind, but it is still a little too unfamiliar, people say that it is too familiar to start, but sometimes it is too unfamiliar and there is no way to start.

In the end, Li Xiao still refused, not that he was a saint, but he felt that even if it was something you and I wanted, it had to have some emotional foundation. Just like she and Wanniang at the beginning, at the beginning, even if the two slept together in the name of husband and wife, he didn't mess around.

It wasn't until the two were ripe that they really slept together.

However, his refusal made the moon slave very frightened, thinking that he had done something wrong, and thinking that he was not attractive enough, and finally Li Xiao was helpless, so he had to say that he had to be busy at night.

The moon slave said that he wanted to help, so in the middle of the night, lonely men and widows lived in the same room, but Li Xiao could only write the regulations of the printing bureau for one night.

At the beginning, it was all about avoiding embarrassment, but later the more he wrote, the more energetic he became, and Li Xiao really threw himself into it.

The Golden Palace has already boasted of Haikou, 300,000 yuan will be printed out of the Nine Classics and the Five Classics of Justice 10,000 volumes, if he can't do it, it is estimated that he doesn't know how many people are ready to fall into the well, and he doesn't want to live up to Li Zhi's expectations and trust.

All things are foreseen, and those who are not prepared are wasted.

To do things, you have to have a good plan, a plan, a plan, a charter, and then an execution.

Fortunately, Li Zhi trusts him, just like the corn prison, this printing bureau is completely decided by Li Xiao, and he asks people to give money to people.

The printing office has not yet opened, but the 300,000 yuan has been pulled out by Emperor Li Zhi from the inner treasury. In order to be afraid that the courtiers would be embarrassed, Li Zhi deliberately pulled money from his inner treasury, 300,000 yuan of money, which is a big investment.

Li Xiao has promised the emperor that the 300,000 guan is a temporary loan, and the printing office will not be a place to spend money, and then he will make the printing bureau a place to make money, and today the emperor will borrow him 300,000 guan, and he will return more to the emperor when he turns around.

After all, it is the only printing bureau, and it has the titles of royal and imperial court, Li Xiao does not believe that this transaction can still be done at a loss.

Although Datang said that there are not many readers, there are not a few readers, there are more than 300 states in the world, more than 1,000 counties, and the land is vast and rich, and the promotion and promotion will not be bad.

Not to mention anything else, Li Xiao thinks that at least he will open a chain of books and rent books, and this business will not be bad.

When I got this seriously, I couldn't stop, and finally I wrote until dawn.

Rubbing his somewhat sour wrists, Li Xiao found that it was already dawn, and the girl Yuenu was actually by his side all night, studying ink for him and fanning him, although he was very sleepy, he kept holding on.

This touched him a little, a nice girl.

A sixteen-year-old girl, when she first arrived at this house, was cautious everywhere, for fear of doing something wrong.

After comforting the girl a few words, Li Xiao washed up, changed his clothes and went out.

In the early morning, Chang'an Avenue was already very noisy, especially in Dongcheng, many officials rushed to the court, and those who did not have the qualifications to participate in the permanent staff also rushed to work in the yamen.

The officials were accompanied by an entourage, which was generally drawn by the imperial court, and most of them were served by good citizens who served.

These people served in the imperial court, but they only served for a short time a year, so as a retinue of guards, they also changed frequently.

Li Xiao is more accustomed to light cars and simple obedience, when he went to the court, he rode a horse by himself, with only four entourages, not the court to draw the servant defense pavilion, but his own family's subordinates.

Dressed in a scarlet robe, he still wears a horizontal knife at his waist. This is the performance of the Tang Dynasty's martial arts, even a civil official carries a knife with him.

On the road, many officials who went to the court saw Li Xiao in their cars, but they all pretended not to know him, and some even avoided him.

Li Xiao snorted a few times disdainfully, these people, it seems that because they have offended the scholars, they have already decided that they will not be able to be an official for a few days. He didn't know that because of Cui Zhiyi's matter, in a short period of time, Li Xiao had already gained a new nickname in Chang'an City, known as Li San.
