Chapter 268: The Man Who Is Cruel To Himself
Guide Chitose's idea is very wild, and if someone else says this, Li You must think that she is dreaming.
Although he was already sitting in the cabinet at this time, Li Zhongshu still felt that it was an unreal illusion when he recalled the content of the conversation just now. However, from the point of view of pure appreciation, it made him a little excited to hear about such a large-scale wealth plan, and to imagine that the formation of the Big Mac monopoly consortium originated from his salt method. However...... such thing as "spiritual shareholders" has the least future. Shang Bao Si Cheng, omitting thirty-one words below, Lord Li immediately suppressed this inexplicable sense of excitement.
Whether the eldest princess of Guide can succeed or not, Li You can't determine. It can only be said that according to her various unique conditions, she has the possibility of success. As for whether the consequences are good or bad, whether it is historical progress or historical reversal, and how long it can last, Master Li can't see it at all.
In the evening, he went out of the palace and returned to the apartment, and when he arrived at the straw rope alley, Mr. Li got off the sedan chair and sent the sedan chair man away.
Han Zong, who said today, frowned and looked left and right, "Master, the little one feels murderous. ”
"What nonsense!" Master Li scolded. There may be fights and brawls in the officialdom of the Beijing division of this dynasty, and the most tragic result is just to return to the hometown, but I really haven't heard of playing with life, let alone assassination, which destroys the main theme, this is not a brainless movie.
At this time, a figure suddenly flashed out from behind the big tree at the mouth of the alley and stopped in front of Li You.
"How are you?" Li You was very surprised to see it clearly, but this person was the former imperial historian Wang Qinian, but he didn't know what this opponent did to stop him. He quickly compared his and Wang Qinian's strength in his heart, and judged that the personal danger was basically zero, so he waved his hand and sent Han Zong a little farther away.
Wang Qinian slowly bowed his hand, his voice was a little hoarse, "I heard Guide Chitose say, it was you who strongly opposed the use of me, so she was also very embarrassed." I came to pay a special visit here, and I hope that Lord Li will raise his noble hand. ”
Li You's mind was not on Wang Qinian's issue, and secretly wondered why the eldest princess mentioned herself in front of Wang Qinian? Won't there be any flaws that Wang Qinian can see? So with a little worry, he asked: "Who does Guide Chitose use to do with this official?" You've come to me to find the wrong person. ”
"Chitose said that you proposed the salt method first, and I will borrow your praise painting in the future, so I won't make you unhappy. I'll have to find a way to convince you first. ”
Li You was slightly relieved and teased: "How do you want to convince this official?" The roots of this official's ears are very hard! "Now you should take the initiative to let Miss Cheng out, and you can get this condition, Lord Li thought.
Wang Qinian's face was very bad, and he tightened his emaciated skin. Suddenly, with a flip of his wrist, a bright and shiny ox-eared knife shone out of his sleeve, shining in the sunset.
Han Zong's crow's mouth! Master Li took a few steps back in surprise, Wang Qinian, you dare to break the rules of the game, it seems that you don't want to mix in the civil official circle at all.
Although he Li You has been a cross-sword official and is not afraid of this small scene, and his body is also dominant, it is very simple to kill the scholar and literati Wang Qinian alone, but it is a bit tricky to get out unharmed and get out.
If the news of Lord Li's bloody battle on Changjie in the book of the split vote spreads to Jingshi, it will be very undignified and a joke.
Wang Qinian didn't make a move, let Li You retreat, and when Han Zong came over quickly, Wang Qinian raised his knife and shouted, "Don't misunderstand!" Listen to me! ”
Li You asked strangely, "What else do you say?" ”
Wang Qinian stretched out his left hand, gently stroked the blade of the sharp knife in his hand, and talked about a trivial matter. "I just wanted to tell Master Li. When he didn't even want an official position and had no way out, he had no choice but to use this blade to castrate himself into the palace and serve Chitose wholeheartedly. ”
Han Zong rolled his eyes, is self-harm a threat, he began to suspect that Wang Qinian had gone crazy. I wanted to say a few words to the master, but I saw that the master actually looked serious and nervous, as if he was really frightened by Wang Qinian.
"I'm honest, not a lie." Wang Qinian stopped his movements and stood there quietly, believing that the other party would understand.
"You won." Li You smiled helplessly. What is he afraid of?
Knowledge changes fate, this sentence is very suitable for the eunuchs of the inner palace. Don't think that the eunuchs are stupid, incompetent and uneducated, except for a few strange eunuchs who have been in power in the three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, who has not received a Hanlin level education in the inner study hall? Once a little eunuch enters the inner study hall, he is like a literati who has won the jinshi, and from the inner study hall has learned to enter the secretary of the ceremonial supervisor's office, he is compared to the jinshi into the Hanlin, known as the inner Han.
However, since the inner study hall was closed for various reasons decades ago, it has never been opened. Most of the eunuchs with a high level of education are now dying, and they only hang the palm prints of the internal officials and yamen and wait for death. The new generation of internal supervisors is not in charge, there are not many literate people, and even fewer are insightful. Therefore, it is in a situation of talent disconnection, which is also a reason why the eunuch power in the palace before and after the Jinghe Dynasty has declined in an all-round way but cannot be revived.
If Wang Qinian, a high-level compound talent with experience, scheming, ambition, and non-pedantic, changes to become a father-in-law, then he will simply stand out from the crowd in the Jinghe court. With the support and use of the eldest princess Chitose, and then winning the trust of the Son of Heaven, what will be the career prospects?
Anyway, Master Li didn't want to see it and was deeply afraid. Who wants to have such an enemy who has been forced to emasculate himself standing next to the imperial power in the palace?
Dare to be ruthless to yourself is really ruthless, Li You shrunk, and he has never been so completely convinced and respectful of others as he is today. "Brother Wang, why is it like this, this official is by no means an unsympathetic person, but he has also been a minister in the same hall, how can this official be so narrow-minded that he will not forgive? Let's go, this official invites you to drink! ”
Invite me for a drink? Wang Qinian remembered something and sighed: "If I had known that you were close to His Royal Highness Chitose, I would not have been so stupid as to kill myself, but I was so miserable to hide it." As for Cheng Xiaoniang, I won't marry her, so as not to have another mustard. ”
I just like people who are both sensible and sincere! Li You was overjoyed, and his mind immediately thought of a way to return to Miss Cheng's family. "This official is willing to reconcile with you, but you must not mention the ugly thing of attempting to emasculate yourself to Chitose."
"Why?"
Li You said earnestly: "Guide to the thousand years old is thirsty for talents, and he has a strong surname. If you mention that you have the idea of self-castration, with my understanding of her, she will definitely forcibly take you into the palace. The Xuande Dynasty had such an old thing, and Yin Jian was in front of him. You only said to Chitose that as soon as I heard that she was embarrassed, I promised to reconcile with you, and don't mention anything else. ”
Wang Qinian reacted, Chitose is a strong person, another meaning of being strong is to be generous and unwilling to owe favors, Li You is very clever and subtle to go to Chitose to ask for benefits.
He threw down the ox ear sharp knife, turned around and walked away, muttering in his mouth: "Ji Shengyu... He Shengliang! Ji Shengyu... He Shengliang! ”
Han Zong picked it up and commented: "This knife is good, in the future, the small one will hide it to protect the master." ”
The next day was December 19, after the end of the early dynasty, the queen mother convened the ministers of Wuyingdian to discuss the matter. This is probably the last pre-sacredness of the year, and it is considered the end of the year.
After three more days, it is the winter solstice festival of the imperial court, and then hundreds of officials will enter the palace of the emperor. Subsequently, the yamen of the Beijing division began to seal one after another, and the officials would enjoy a rare vacation of the year until New Year's Day.
After all, today is the year-end meeting, and the Son of Heaven, as a symbol, has also arrived, sitting next to the Empress Dowager.
Government affairs are discussed one by one in order, and the affairs of the Di Bao are also listed among them, but when it comes to important surnames, they can only be ranked last.
When the matter of the newspaper was brought up in the palace, many people cheered up and prepared to watch the play. Everyone knows that Li Zhongshu is good at tongue and tongue, and he can stir up three points if he is reasonable or unreasonable, and whoever wants to commit it will be the same as stabbing into a hornet's nest, and it seems that there are not many opponents in the court.
I don't know what tricks I'm going to scold this time, it's really exciting, maybe Master Li can stage a big reversal again.
Li You walked out smoothly with the notebook in hand, and a loud voice echoed in the hall:
“… Unexpectedly, it caused Chinese and foreign countries to be suspicious, and there was a misinformation that blocked the way of speech, which was not the original intention. Fortunately, Taiyuan is upright, and he is terrified, and he is ashamed of God's grace. There are mistakes to correct, and there are deviations to correct..."
"The sages said that the text carries the Tao, what is the existence of the report? The minister thinks that one is to educate people's hearts, and the other is to clarify things. ”
"Please turn the newspaper into two. The first is to copy and distribute to the world, ordering the yamen of Fuzhou and county to post it outside the door for the people to see, and to copy and send it to the country, government, state, and county schools to raise the hearts of scholars. The second kind is for the Beijing master and the yamen to copy, in order to open up the way of speech, so as not to have the worry of blocking the way of speech. The two go hand in hand, and you can get the best of both worlds. ”
Many ministers watched Master Li talk eloquently, and they couldn't adapt for a while, and they were disappointed for a while.
Is this Lord Li who admits his mistakes calmly, is polite and courteous, and talks about things on a case-by-case basis still Lord Li? Once upon a time, Lord Li, who was full of swords, guns, swords, halberds, and eighteen weapons, could also list articles and discuss politics together?
An unruly troublemaker is out of the crowd, and there is a lot of fun missing from the boring temple, someone sighed.
Maybe they sighed early, and only listened to Li You continue to speak: "There are two kinds of Di newspapers, and two can be used." Those who specialize in education can be called clean books, and those who are dedicated to matters such as sending them to the imperial history can be called full books..."
Jieben? Foot? It's probably because Master Li can't think of another name.
The hall is full of people who are full of poetry and books, and claim to have books and read everything. Suddenly hearing these two very connotative names, some smiled, some couldn't help laughing, some thoughtful, some looked silver, and some were indifferent... The young man looked at Zhu Qing with a confused expression, what's wrong?
Jinghe's last pre-monarch meeting in seven years ended in a light comedy.
