In the dull middle of February, the Spring Festival has gradually become a memory, and just when there is a lack of new hot talking points in the officialdom of Beijing, Li You, who made a kicking incident, reluctantly acted as a topic of conversation.

Because of his work, Master Li had an argument with the scholars of the current dynasty and Jiuqing during the meeting of the inner and outer courts, but he angrily kicked the door of the east court room in the middle of the gate in front of everyone's eyes -- this topic can be regarded as filling the current blank period, and it is a relatively eye-catching matter in recent times.

Lord Li's kick can be regarded as a public expression of protest against the bigwigs and his dissatisfaction with being repeatedly suppressed, and he exposed his grievances in broad daylight. In the Ming Dynasty, where there were many character officials, it was also a very individual action.

In fact, it does not matter if an official has a personality, but when he expresses his personality inappropriately, he is easily criticized and ostracized. However, this time, the bigwigs found that the direction of public opinion was a little different from what they imagined.

"Even the thing of kicking the door in the palace was done, it can be seen that Lord Li was already angry at that time, and his emotions were extremely excited."

"Although Lord Li lost his temper this time, it was also excusable. To be fair, the bosses are a little unkind. If not, how can Li You be forced to be like this? ”

He advocated running a newspaper, and he also wanted to do something, but when he was preparing, he was stabbed by the bosses. If this is stopped, it is understandable, but the bosses are taking this matter away and handing it over to others, isn't this a blatant humiliation? ”

"Not only this time, Lord Li can't help but attack after the accumulation of anger twice, you must know that immortals also have anger, let alone mortals."

"Yes, Lord Li was not at fault before, and he bothered to fight against such a treacherous evil as Duan's father-in-law, which is a good thing for the country and the people. But after that, he lost the Admiral Wucheng Soldiers and Horses, and was sent to the Guozijian by the old mantises, and he must have been holding his stomach. When I arrived at Guozijian, I encountered such injustices again and again, and it would be hellish if I didn't get angry. ”

In the midst of sympathy, Li Denggao, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, commented to his colleagues: "Don't be deceived by Li You. He kicked the door on purpose! Its purpose is only to attract the attention and discussion of the DPRK and China! ”

"So what, anyway, Lord Li has indeed been wronged, and it is not too much to call a few times." The colleagues smiled and replied. Who can't see Li You's plan? There is nothing to deceive or not to deceive, Li Bianxiu speaks childishly and immaturely.

If you put this kind of thing on someone else, you must leave an arrogant, disrespectful, and ignorant comment. A five-grade official, still dare not be convinced by the collective decision of fifteen bigwigs? In other words, what qualifications does a five-pin have to be unconvinced? Do you deserve to be unconvinced? Is it really officialdom that the rules are all decorations?

But on Li You, it makes people feel a little "harmonious". I don't think it's a "broken rule". Even if you turn your face, you have to have the qualifications to turn your face, and Master Li seems to be a qualified person.

The reason for this is probably because Li You defeated Duan Zhien, the former eunuch of Ceremonies and the great companion of the Son of Heaven. Prestige (not prestige) is quietly different from what it used to be. It's not about grade, it's about people's hearts.

In the past, Li You competed with the elders of the pavilions, and to a large extent, they were sniping at each other. At best, he's a sniper with a lot of critical hits.

So far, Master Li has not really defeated a scholar, whether it is Xu Shoufu, Peng Ge Lao or Yuan Ge Lao, although they have been repeatedly sniped in various things, they are still sitting in the cabinet. Of course, all the elders also have nothing to do with Li You.

However, after Li You went into the field at the end of last year, it only took less than a month to lay out, and in the last few days of the year, Duan Zhien was simply brought down, which was unusual.

Although because of the reason for the New Year soon. Duan Zhien's fall did not cause much discussion, and not too many people thought about its significance. But imperceptibly, the impact on people's hearts is immeasurable. The eyes of the masses are bright, and the eyes of the officials are even brighter.

Who is the template for a person like Duan Zhien? There are many people in the court who have read history books, and they can easily find some examples from the black history of this dynasty, such as Wang Zhen of the Yingzong Dynasty, Liu Jin of the Wuzong Dynasty, Feng Bao of the Shenzong Dynasty, Wang An of the Xizong Dynasty... And maybe Wei Zhongxian.

Although Duan Gonggong's miraculous achievements have not been accomplished, he is still fledgling. But he is recognized as having the potential to become the same person as his predecessors. Jane's eunuchs in the emperor's heart were even more unstoppable when their careers were on the rise, at least according to historical experience, hundreds of officials could not stop the palace gate.

But Wang Zhen, the future of Jinghe Dynasty, or Liu Jin in the future, or Feng Bao in the future is in the unstoppable rising period, but he was slapped to death by Lord Li casually, how can it not be awe-inspiring?

Respect is respect, and Lord Li stepped forward as a representative of civil officials. It prevented the birth of a new generation of powerful eunuchs similar to Wang Zhen, Liu Jin, and Feng Bao, and safeguarded the interests of civil officials.

Fear is fear of strength. On the bright side, Li You collapsed Duan Zhien. It relies on trickery and deception and opportunism, but there is no potential strength to rely on, and trickery is a tree without roots and water without a source, and it cannot break the root of the enemy's skin. Hidden power that cannot be seen and cannot be seen clearly does not mean that it does not exist.

It's very simple, Sanyang, Yang Tinghe, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, and Donglin Dang can't do or dare not do things, but Master Li has done it. What is strength, that is, strength, undoubted comprehensive strength.

With such strength, what is it to shout, quarrel, and turn his face with Zai Fu with the body of the five products, it can only be said that it is a very normal phenomenon, and even the elder of the pavilion did not publicly accuse Li You of being rude.

The same thing, "powerful" people do it and "no strength" people do it, and the discussion caused by it is completely different.

Therefore, although the court talked about the "kicking incident" and paid attention to the focus of the dispute between Li You and Zai Fu, few people were stupid enough to talk about Li You's character and ignore the humility. Even if he is punished for a hundred years, he will not be able to share his own head.

And everyone knows that Master Li is characterized by tenacity and unyielding (as can be seen from this word, Li You began to enjoy the treatment of His Holiness), and it is almost inevitable that there will be some counterattack. Therefore, it is only the time when the curtain has just been raised, and the main drama is later.

Even good gamblers have begun to bet on how long the stone festival wine can sit in the position of president of the newspaper? According to incomplete statistics, eighty percent chose to step down within a month, and the debate was only over whether it would be 10 days or 20 days.

The reason is very good, after Duan Zhien framed Li You and dismissed him, it only lasted for twenty days, and there is no reason for the stone sacrifice wine to last longer than Duan Gonggong.

However, more than ten days have passed, and at the end of February, there is no reaction from Master Li, he is like an ancient well, calm and unfathomable. During this period, it was reported that Master Li was ready to get rid of the Guozijian and run a newspaper on his own, and all kinds of signs also confirmed this.
