Chapter 496: Asking the Right Question
Chapter 496 is right
In the middle of the day, the dark clouds of yin, slightly spread out half of the gaps, the bright sunshine shines out through shè, gorgeous and bright, even if there is not much warmth, but compared to the climate of yin haze, seeing the bright scene of heaven and earth, the mood is a little comfortable.
The road was slippery on a snowy day, and he was in the imperial city, Han Rui naturally didn't dare to walk quickly, the speed was unhurried, and there was something in his heart, and he was used to becoming natural, one was not careful, and when he came to his senses, Han Rui found that he had actually walked near Taichang Temple.
Laughing at himself, Han Rui shook his head slightly, sank down, and continued to walk forward, since he had arrived, then go in by the way, and ask for leave in person, which was even more sincere, and also in line with the regulations of the imperial court.
In Taichang Temple, it is still the same, and it will not run smoothly because of the absence of Han Rui, the officials and scribes, each performing their duties, or idle, or busy, orderly, when Han Rui walked in, he did not alarm them, and walked lightly to the office of Liu Wenshu, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple.
On the way, I met a few scribes, who I knew, I stopped walking and saluted, and those who didn't know passed by indifferently, and soon came to the front of the yafang, and was about to raise my voice to ask to see, but found that the movement in the room was not xiǎo, quite lively, Han Rui stopped to listen, and it could be discerned from the sound that there seemed to be a distinguished guest inside, accompanied by several main officials of Taichang Temple.
No wonder, along the way, after passing through a lot of yarooms, there were no people inside, it turned out that they all came here, Han Rui suddenly realized, and thought about it, people were busy with business, and it was not easy to disturb, so he turned around and was about to leave.
At this moment, surrounded by Fang Mén Chang, Liu Wenshu and others, Li Tai, the king of Yue, walked out leisurely and greeted Han Rui, Li Tai was stunned, and greeted warmly: "What a coincidence, I met Dr. Han here." ”
Of course, this enthusiasm is just what everyone thinks, but Han Rui is aware of the estrangement, but there is nothing strange, after all, he has refused the olive branch handed by others many times, and Li Tai appreciates his talent again, and he must be very unhappy in his heart, and being able to greet him with a smile is already an extraordinary performance of bearing.
"His Royal Highness King Yue, Liu Shaoqing ......," Han Rui responded politely.
Liu Wenshu nodded lightly and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Dr. Han, Xi Delin'er, I had something yesterday and couldn't congratulate in person, I'm really embarrassed, wait until the full moon of Xiǎo Lang, and then go to mén to apologize." ”
"Shaoqing is polite." Han Rui smiled: "You must sweep the couch and wait for ......"
"Congratulations to Dr. Han......" Several officials next to him, whether they were sincere or not, also said hello one after another.
Han Rui responded fluently, with a lovely smile, and invited them to participate in the baby's full moon washing banquet, everyone naturally did not refuse, and happily agreed, even if they didn't go, they would give gifts.
Then, someone asked curiously: "Dr. Han, when was Ling Lang born, and what name are you going to choose?" ”
"Don't be in a hurry with the big name, it's not too late to get up again when you reach the first birthday, it's better to take a xiǎo name now."
"It makes sense...... a few people talked about it, patronizing jiāo and flowing feelings, but for a while, they forgot that there was a Yue Wang Li Tai next to him, and some people couldn't see this kind of behavior of respecting and inferior.
Helan Anshi, who was loyal to the Lord, coughed and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Dr. Han's successor, by the way, why didn't you see Dr. Han in the Taitang Auditorium just now, could it be that you are busy with something?" ”
Everyone can hear the meaning of the questioning, you know, the court stipulates that officials are late and do not meet on time, but they have to be deducted and punished, and if it is serious, the official hat cannot be kept.
"Yesterday, I asked my colleague to take an emergency leave for three days." Han Rui looked calm, and said with a chuckle: "Later, I felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this, so I came in person and filed it with Shaoqing." ”
"Hehe, a little bit of Xiǎo thing, why do you need to be so cautious." Liu Wen smiled and was ready to nod his head in permission.
Helan Anshi on the side said: "The joy of giving birth to a child does not seem to be included in the decree of leave. ”
When everyone heard this, they frowned slightly, there was joy at home, taking a few days off, taking care of their wives and children, this is also human nature, why bother looking for bones in the egg, nothing to do.
"I'm on regular leave." Han Rui explained.
Li Tai's eyes were slightly cold, and he glanced at it gently, Helan Anshi immediately woke up, knowing that he was a little out of shape, even if he resented Han Rui for destroying his good deeds in Jingzhou, he should not be entangled in this kind of thing, there was no point.
After thinking it through, Helan An Shiqiang smiled, retreated behind Li Tai, and stopped talking.
"If nothing else, the Lone King will get married in the near future, and the wedding banquet will be a big gift, and I will ask Dr. Han for more help." Li Tai said, it seems to be playing a round, there is no way, the people below Hu Luàn spoke, and those who don't know still think that he instructed it, which is really damaging his image as a virtuous king, so he naturally has to make up for it.
"With Shaoqing here, you don't need me to be ugly." Han Rui said with a smile.
“…… It's self-aware. ”
A voice came from the corner, and I don't know who it came from, Han Rui was calm, didn't care, and continued: "Shaoqing, the matter of leave ......"
"Dr. Han"
Without waiting for Liu Wenshu to say something, an inner shi hurriedly came, not afraid of falling on his heels, and came to Han Rui's body, with no one in his eyes, and there was no one in his eyes at all, Li Tai and Liu Wenshu and others did not exist at all, panting, and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty asked you to return quickly." ”
Everyone was shocked, and Han Rui was also a little mihuo, and said strangely: "What is it?" ”
Uh, before he could speak, Han Rui realized that Bai asked, no matter what it was, there was no room for refusal, and he smiled at everyone at the moment, and immediately turned around with Uchishi.
Everyone looked at each other, and from the word "return quickly", you can know that the emperor was meeting Han Rui just now, and not long after he retired, Neishi chased after him again, I don't know what it was for, but no matter what it was, anyway, many people were envious, and their eyes were red.
Li Tai ignored the official's thoughts, greeted Liu Wenshu, and left with Helan Anshi and others, out of the official office of Taichang Temple, and when he looked up, he could still see the figures of Han Rui and Neishi, and then disappeared into the palace.
"You say, what did my father summon Han Rui for?" Lee Tae Mihuo was puzzled.
Helan Anshi was dazed, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
"Detective......," Li Tai said flatly.
Helan Anshi hurriedly responded, and he also made a difficulty in his heart, it was easy to say, how to investigate, but it was a big problem, after all, there were too many secrets in the palace, who dared to leak it, and he would be beaten to death with a stick, and he was scared, and he must be tight-lipped.
Li Tai also understood this truth, and did not expect Helan Anshi, so he sent them back to the palace first, took off his clothes, and walked directly towards the palace.
"I have something to do to see my father." Li Tai said proudly.
Neishi nodded and said, "Your Highness, wait a minute, let xiǎo report it." ”
Li Tai bowed slightly, this is the rule, even if it is a biological father and son, he can't make an exception, and he doesn't have to wait long, after a while, Neishi hurriedly came out, and said in a loud voice: "Your Highness, Your Majesty asked you to come again tomorrow." ”
Li Tai was stunned, and then raised his voice: "The son respectfully obeys his father's order. "Anyway, it's very simple, turn around and leave, the mistake of being pampered and arrogant, with Li Tai's cleverness, he will never make it, knowing the general situation, knowing the advance and retreat, is the reason to ensure that the favor will not fade.
In the palace, Li Tai's voice was faintly heard, Li Shimin smiled, looked at Han Rui, and called, "Han Qing." ”
"xiǎo 臣在." Han Rui was respectful and very restrained, and he was called back after he left for a short time, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart.
His fingers slid lightly on the golden silk nanmu yinji, Li Shimin sank up, seemed to be wording, and after half a sound, he said lightly: "I am very curious, you are a civil official, why are you so keen on the military?" ”
Han Rui was stunned, this tone, how can he be with the king? Similarly, isn't Mo admonishing himself that he is meddling?
"Your Majesty, in fact, Xiǎo Chen really doesn't know much about the art of war strategy." Han Rui said honestly: "It's okay to talk on paper, but when you really go to the battlefield, most of them are similar to Zhao Kuo, three suggestions, just occasionally have a flash of inspiration, with such a thought, as for whether it can be used, it is still necessary for Your Majesty to decide." ”
"Dr. Han, the suggestions you put forward are naturally usable, but they are all for military generals, so aren't they considered by civilian officials?" The eldest grandson Wuji said that there are some things that Li Shimin is not easy to say, so he naturally has to worry about the king.
Han Rui was stunned, looked up at the eldest grandson Wuji, and said softly: "Forgive the official for being ignorant, I don't understand what Sikong's words mean." ”
"Dr. Han, you should be clear." The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said: "Whether it is the establishment of the military academy, the martial arts, or the creation of the Heroic Martyrs' Hall, for the military generals, not only has substantial benefits, but also great glory, at that time, you, the initiator, I am afraid you will also be envious." ”
Although he was not so straightforward, Han Rui couldn't pretend to be confused, and he finally understood that the concern in Li Shimin's heart was nothing more than the fear of raising the status of military generals, and the civilian officials could not check and balance, and it would be difficult to control it in the future, which would shake the country's foundation.
"Win the world immediately, you can't rule the world right away." Li Shimin said: "To open up the territory, we need to use military generals, swords, guns, swords, and halberds, but to govern the country and secure the country, we also need the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone of Wenchen, and I can't favor one over the other." ”
"What Your Majesty said is very true." The eldest grandson Wuji agreed, looked at Han Rui and said, "Do you have a solution?" ”
Han Rui wanted to scratch his head very much, this is simply difficult for a strong man, the officers and soldiers in the army are good to say, they often fight in battle, and they are easy to die and be injured, but few people remember their merits, and giving them a monument to commemorate it is also a kind of compensation.
However, the civil officials stayed in the rear, and if they made meritorious achievements, they would naturally be rewarded by the imperial court, and the people under their rule, grateful to Dade, often spontaneously set up a monument and an ancestral hall, and there was no need to do this at all.
As for the military academy, more than a thousand years ago, there was a Xuan Xuan School, and the imperial examination has been implemented for decades, except for those military generals and magnates who were knighted for their military exploits, no matter how you look at it, the status of the soldiers is lower than that of the literati, and it has been slightly improved, but they feel that it is unfair, and Han Rui is speechless about this.
The reason for this is nothing more than that the literati have become accustomed to enjoying preferential treatment and take it for granted, and if they find that someone is treated better, they will naturally be dissatisfied......
