Li You returned to the hall with nothing to do, finished eating with nothing, played a few leaf cards with Xiaozhu with nothing, and it seems that tomorrow is still idle, what should I do?

"Master, I heard that there is a temple fair nearby tomorrow, can you take the slave family to see the excitement?" Xiaozhu begged.

Li You agreed: "Oh, good. ”

Suddenly, the shopkeeper of the guild hall came over to say, "Master Li, there is an old master from the old Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, who specially came to the guild hall to look for you, and now he is waiting in front of him." ”

Li You pressed his doubts and followed the shopkeeper to the front lobby, only to see that the man was less than thirty years old and wearing a coarse cloth robe. Seeing Li You, he arched his hand and said: "Presumably this one is Lord Li, tonight Lu Shangshu wants to invite Lord Li to come over the mansion, and the special envoy is here to invite." ”

This big night... However, Li You is not a fool, and he knows that the more he passes like this, the more he can't refuse. He nodded and said, "Please lead the way." ”

Without saying a word all the way, Li You traveled six or seven miles and came to Xicheng Lufu again. Menzi obviously got the order, did not stop it, and directly let him into the house. He then walked through the porch and was taken to a study.

This study occupies a large area, with a curtain, and is divided into two rooms, inside and outside. Li Youli secretly looked around the room outside, but saw a text panel hanging on the wall, which read, "The clouds cover the moon and the moon is not clear, who will wash the Yangtze River and release the azure."

The white-haired Lu Shangshu walked out of the room in a civilian robe, saw Li You throw down the book in his hand, and reprimanded: "You kid, what's the matter?" What did you do to provoke the eunuch of the country for no reason? Is this what you can mess around within? ”

Although he was scolded for coming up, Master Li was moved to tears... It's not that he's cheap, compared to the quietness of the Zuodu Yushi and the rejection of the officials of the Ministry of Heaven and the Heavenly Officials, he is still happier to be brought over and reprimanded in the middle of the night, at least there is some meaning that he does not see the outside... It's the same reason as Chen Xundao punished him several times.

To use an analogy of shameless slapping horses, that is, thunder, rain and dew are all Jun'en.

In these years, the relationship between fellow villagers and old ones is relatively strong... Li You sighed at Lu Shangshu's personality on the one hand, and on the other hand, he made a gesture of lowering his head and admitting his mistakes, "The old man has taught a great lesson, and the lower officials also know their mistakes, which is difficult to explain." ”

"You carefully talk about the causes and consequences of going to the country to make trouble." Lao Shangshu found a chair and sat down and asked.

Li You confessed his encounter to the capital, why he went to Guozijian, how he was misidentified, before and after seeing Zhao Zongxian, and then going to Guozijian, etc., and his relationship with Zhu Bulang was also recruited. Of course, it omits such unseemly things as taking the letters of the Ministry of Officials and letters.

At the end, Li You cautiously asked: "What happened to Xia Guan is really incredible, but for some reason it alarmed the boss..."

Lao Shangshu frowned, thoughtfully, and replied: "It's not that it alarmed the old man, but it alarmed the court." ”

It turned out that in the early dynasty today, there was an official who impeached Li You, the former governor of Suzhou Prefecture and the current prospective prisoner of Guozijian, who was instructed by someone to pretend to be the imperial history in Guozijian and accept the book without permission, and he had other plans, and he is still at large, which is simply a shame for the imperial court!

After hearing this, all the civil and military officials in the court class felt that this old man was full of food, and a small foreign official with a big fart was also worthy of being taken to the court as soon as possible?

But soon things were unusual, and there was a second impeachment of the Ministry of Officials, Shangshu Xu, who was improper, using private individuals, shielding accomplices, and having ill intentions, obviously insinuating that Lord Xu was the black backstage of Li Mou, who pretended to be the imperial history, as for the purpose, you can make up for it.

This made Xu Tianguan unexpectedly embarrassed, crying and laughing, feeling that he was really lying down and being hit by an arrow... can only be very formalistic to go to the crown, and ask for investigation and punishment.

The impeachment of Ge Lao Shangshu was also a common thing in the Ming Dynasty, and it was not unusual, and it passed after being fooled.

But this time, Zhao Zongxian, the imperial history of the left capital, jumped out on the spot. He said that he was worried that the six eunuchs would change after the birth of the sixth eunuch, and that the imperial history was high-profile and ineffective, so he entrusted Master Li, who was familiar with the name of the criminal law, to take the opportunity to make a secret visit, and was mistaken for the imperial history purely accidental, not a deliberate fake. And attached are a number of results as follows... The matter is not over yet, and some people have turned to attack the ministers Xu and Zhao for forming a party, and they should all be dismissed, otherwise how can there be such a coincidence? Of course, Xu Shangshu and Zhao Zongxian have their own hearts, and there is no need to count them when they jump out to fight.

As a number of non-idle people joined the war group one after another, the early dynasty became a vegetable market, and the topic somehow continued from the prison to the political belonging.

The bigwigs can't control the scene... Hundreds of people scattered to their respective offices, and only then did they have their minds to worry, where is the god of that official named Li? If you have a good memory, it seems that it was the magistrate who killed the "Two Winds Taishou" a few months ago?

Lu Shangshu returned home from the military department, and heard that the little famous man from the same township who gave him the word visited his third son today. Only then did I know that the talented man with amazing talent for poetry was actually the son-in-law of two former slaves, and he was barely his disciple.

Then continue to realize that this poet Li You is not Li You, the governor of Suzhou Prefecture who appeared in the early dynasty today? He hurriedly sent his entourage to the guild hall to summon Li You to inquire about the details, so that he could judge the direction of the wind, and at the same time to teach him strictly.

Lao Tzu is lying down and is also hit by an arrow! When Master Li heard Lu Shangshu talk about this morning's court battle, he shouted with tears streaming down his face. Most of these ministers who don't know his names have ideas about each other, and it may even be that the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven have their own ideas, and they provoked the issue by taking advantage of the prison and his death, but he became the fuse.

In fact, I have a faint premonition, and there must be some people who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. Master Li hung his head and said: "Xiaguan is shining brightly, and I have some heart to return home." ”

When Lao Shangshu heard this, he said: "I have no ambition, it's not too late for you to say this when you reach the old man's age." You are honest and sit in prison to study and survive your life, and you will not provoke right and wrong again, let alone have any thoughts of ascending to the sky in one step. ”

"When the lower official entered the capital, he knew that the sky was high and the earth was thick, how dare he think about it." Li You said helplessly, "Now according to the instructions of the general constitution, if you have sinned the priest and wine business, how can there be any place for the Guozijian." ”

"Didn't you expose the horse's feet of that business, he will definitely be dismissed and degraded. You are very clever here, it is more or less a small credit on the surface, and it is enough to protect yourself. Lu Shangshu said in Li You's heart: "And the old man has concluded that the position of Fei Sacrificial Wine is not long." ”

Li You really couldn't help but say: "Listening to it, I feel that the DPRK and China are disturbing and unified, is there enough weight to say something?" ”

"What do you mean by a person who speaks?" Lao Shangshu asked.

Li You thought for a moment and changed the wording: "The core, or the mountain." ”

Lao Shangshu still didn't understand, so Li You had to explain metaphorically: "It's like Zhang Jiangling in the Wanli Dynasty and Yan Fenyi in the Jiajing Dynasty." ”

Old Master Lu sighed: "Now the court, including the old man, is looking at the five pavilions, the old six books, and the general constitution, which is like scattered sand. ”

It is estimated that the Son of Heaven is young, and the Queen Mother is also unjustifiable, how many years have there been no strong integration, and there has been no persecution by foreign enemies, resulting in fragmentation of power... Li You muttered, no wonder the mess makes people look in a fog. The more fragments, the more possible and random surnames there are, and the more chaotic it is to judge the trend.

"The old man knows a little about your doubts." Lao Shangshu saw through Li You's thoughts, "According to what has appeared in the court recently, and what you just mentioned, the old man can infer that it is about Yuan Ge Lao and Jin Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites conspiring with him. ”

Li You has heard of these two names.

"But it's none of your business." Lu Shangshu said again.

Li You wanted to have the courage to ask Lao Shangshu's thoughts, but he immediately rejected this idea. No matter how good the boss's attitude is, he is also one of the twelve giants of the imperial court, and if he is not a relative or elder, he should not kick his nose in the face.

The topic changed, and Li You accompanied Lao Shangshu to talk about the new things in Xujiang County this year.

Lu Shangshu suddenly remembered something: "Before the morning of the dynasty today, I met Vice Lang Zhu of the Ministry of Rites in the courtroom. once talked about you, and he was convinced when he listened to the tone, but he called the old man and honorable, and he didn't boast about you in front of him in vain. In the capital, the old man saw that you were the first to be able to convince Zhu Tanhua in poetry. ”

Li You said athenately: "The boss has won the award, and the lower officials dare to call the world this little bit of nonsense." ”

After chatting a few more words, Li You got up to say goodbye, and Lu Shangshu warmly invited: "It's inconvenient for you to live in the hall after all, so it's better to come to live here with the old man." This house can barely be called spacious, how about tidying up a good yard for you? ”

Li You bowed down and said: "Thank you for your kindness, if the lower official sits in prison and reads, he can't say that he wants to live in a room, or rent it nearby, so he won't bother the boss." ”

"It's a bit far to learn, so I'll wait until you finish your studies."

Li You came out of the Lu Mansion, and his heart was much more settled, and it was different to have something to rely on. In fact, Li You still doesn't want to be in prison anymore, and he has had enough of it in the unpredictable capital... When Li You returned to the hall more relaxed and happy, he found the shopkeeper looking at the door.

"Master Li, you're back!" The shopkeeper greeted him attentively.

Li You was inexplicable, so he asked, "Do you have something?" ”

"The official of the Ministry of Officials also sent someone to find you... Waiting. ”

Xu Shangshu? Xu Shangshu! Li You chuckled in his heart, it was already late at night, and he didn't expect this to happen... He immediately complained to the shopkeeper, "Don't you know where I am going tonight, why do you still let the messenger wait?" He should have told him a long time ago so that he could return the favor early, so as not to waste time. ”

The shopkeeper accompanied him and said, "I said it, but he refused to leave, saying that he must wait until you come back." You have to wait even if it's too late. ”

Li You couldn't believe his ears when he heard it, he went to the ministry to deliver a letter in the afternoon, but the master of Tianguan was gone, how could he take the initiative to send someone to invite him in the middle of the night?

It's strange to say, but after all, this is Lord Shangshu who is in charge of the seal... Should we be excited and full of honor, or should we be intellectually anxious? Li You's expression changed, and he didn't understand his mood anymore.

The shopkeeper of the guild hall looked at Master Li with admiration, and sighed in his heart that this is a master, he was summoned by two Shangshu in a row in one night, and he still had to see him, what a brilliance.
