The day is twilight, the son of heaven does not go ashore tonight, stays in the boat, and then arrives at Gaoyou to have a palace to rest. **

On the imperial boat, Jinghe Tianzi, who was still in the newlywed Yan'er period, summoned Concubine Xian, and was impatient to get into the inner cabin to fight for the continuation of the Ming Dynasty.

But I heard my eldest companion Duan's father-in-law calling outside: "Emperor! The slave and maid have something to report. ”

This father-in-law is the thirty-year-old inner eunuch beside the Son of Heaven when Li You greeted him in the early morning, and he has been accompanying the Son of Heaven since he was a child.

Duan's father-in-law's full name is Duan Zhien, and Mai Chengen next to the Queen Mother and Wu Guangen next to Guide Chitose are known as the three most potential masters.

At that time, the emperor chose eight internal supervisors for the crown prince as companions, and to this day, six of the eight people have been killed by the Chitose cane of Guide, and one has died of illness, and only Duan Gonggong, the only seedling tǐng, has been to this day. It is not easy to see that he finally survived to the pro-government of the Son of Heaven.

Jinghe Tianzi had no choice but to put on his clothes and go outside, took the piece of paper handed by Duan's father-in-law, sat on the throne and asked, "What's the matter with the eldest companion?" ”

Duan Gonggong replied: "Li Tansha wanted to commit suicide by jumping into the water, but he was rescued by the sergeant on the boat. ”

Jinghe Tianzi was surprised: "Why did the good Li You commit suicide? ”

Duan Gonggong explained: "What the slave said was confused, so that the emperor misunderstood. It was not this Li Tan who threw the water, but the Li Tan of the Hanlin Academy, edited by Li. I heard that Li Hanlin and Li Yangzhou had a conflict, but Li Yangzhou, the emperor, also knew about it, his tongue was like a knife, sharp and unforgiving, and he belittled Li Hanlin speechless and couldn't raise his head. Li Hanlin probably became more and more angry the more he thought about it, so he threw himself into the water angrily. Li You had already disembarked and left before, leaving something to ask the emperor for his guilt when he went to Yangzhou. ”

"I was originally worried about the confrontation between Li You and Yuan Ge Lao, but the two of them should have never met, so how could there be a conflict?"

Duan's father-in-law explained: "After the New Year's Day, Li Denggao became Li Tan, and at the banquet, he was ridiculed and arranged by the girls of the Teaching Workshop Division because of Li Tan's name. Those lowly NVs didn't speak in a sense of proportion, and they made Li Denggao angry half to death, so they hated Li You. ”

"How did Li You scold Li Denggao? The Great Companion can learn from me. Jinghe Tianzi suddenly asked with interest.

Duan's father-in-law bowed his head and was silent.

The Son of Heaven sighed in disappointment, looked down at the piece of paper in his hand, but what was written was the quatrain of Li You before he got off the boat - Ten zhang Tianwei and ten zhang dust, and the accompanying minister He jīng God? Don't be afraid of the cold in your sleeves, I am a heat-shelterer in the world.

"I am a person who avoids heat in the world..."The Son of Heaven was silent for a moment, and the word "avoidance of heat" is the opposite of "hot and hot" and "inflammatory." Is this a literati pretending to be high, or is he angry and angry? The edict was issued to chase him back. ”

"In the eyes of slaves and maids, they are neither. Then Li You is only afraid that it is deliberate, and without Li Denggao, he will also think of quarreling with others. It's just that others are old and sophisticated, and they don't compete with Li You, only Li Denggao's frivolous words are right under Li You's arms, as if the prey was chased and beaten by Li You. ”

Duan Zhien paused for a moment, waited for the little emperor to think about it, and then continued: "The slave maid guessed that Li You was probably worried that the enemy would be on the side, which would be unfavorable to him, so he didn't stay for a long time, and there are also stories in the history books about Shen Sheng's death inside and his heavy ears outside. He deliberately looked for such an accident and took the opportunity to cō himself. ”

Jinghe Tianzi patted his forehead and said regretfully: "At that time, I forgot that Li You was at odds with others! No wonder he is leaving, it's no wonder he's gone. ”

Today's incident has taught the young Son of Heaven another lesson, he intends to get closer to Li You, and Li You is also willing to get closer to him, both have subjective intentions that should have been a hit, but the result was an attempt. The relationship between people in Vanity Fair has always been so complex, and many times it is not based on subjective will. …,

Politics is indeed easy to learn and difficult to learn. Anyone who listens to a few words of "the secret of officialdom" and "the art of controlling people" can think that he has entered the mén and will be invincible. But in fact, even if everyone has a treasure, there are only a few who succeed.

Thinking of Li You and Yuan Ge Lao, the Son of Heaven sighed slightly: "You can't have both fish and bear's paws. ”

Duan Zhien responded: "This is inappropriate, since the emperor is the son of the emperor, the fish and the bear's paw are all the emperor's, but there are different preferences." Among them, the way of the king depends on the emperor himself to savor it. ”

Jing and Tianzi yawned, "I'm sleepy, so I'll step back if my companion has nothing to do." ”

Duan Gonggong bowed down and said, "The slave maid has one last word." That Li You is attached to Xu Cifu, there is no need to go near and far, and a five-grade is not worth thinking about. But although Li You is young, he is very popular, clever and changeable, and he has not seen a big loss as an official so far, which can be a touchstone. If the emperor has the ability to play nòng in the palm of his hand, others will not be a problem. ”

Jing He Tianzi's eyes lit up, and he was rarely competitive, patted the handrail and said, "Reasonable!" Li You is a very interesting person, and my companion and I have a detailed reference. ”

But it was said that Li You got off the boat and watched Haohao's fleet go away from the shore. He knew that among the dozens of boats of all kinds, one must belong to the eldest princess, but he didn't know which one was.

At this time, it was still in Baoying County, and there were strong soldiers on both sides of the river, and there was one person every two or three zhang. Li You randomly found someone to send a message to the magistrate, and waited for Yi to follow in the same place.

He thought nonsense, when reading history books, the word "Qingjun side" is common, and he didn't feel it before, but today when he saw these people with him, he felt it personally, and he really wanted to shout Qingjun side. Fortunately, now the Ming Dynasty has a little benefit, and the Son of Heaven without the edict is like a tiger that has lost its minions, and it is very difficult to cut the minister.

Li You borrowed a horse from Baoying County, whipped his horse quickly, and rushed back to the front of the royal car from the shore. Then get on the boat again at the Jieshou Post in Gaoyou, travel day and night, change a boat every time you pass a post station, and it only took two days to rush back to Yangzhou City.

At this time, Lord Li continued to bump for several days, his whole body seemed to be scattered, and while sitting at home, he sighed to his staff that being an official was not as hard as Xianyun Yehe, and at the same time sent someone to call the head of the Salt Merchants Association.

Then He Yunzi naturally knew why Li You summoned him to go, and saw Li Taishou take the initiative to report: "Taishou but rest assured, whether it is a color shed, an opera troupe, or fireworks, or cloud silk, they are all ready." The river houses on both sides of the road for ten miles have been painted, and they have been painted within two days, and everything is ready. ”

Li You pointed out again: "When I returned, the official looked at the river houses on both sides of the river, and the vacancy was very unsightly, and it could be covered with a bamboo fence, which was elegant and costless. When the Son of Heaven arrives and sees it, the official will definitely persuade the Son of Heaven to meet you and others. ”
