Chapter 513: Let Him Go
It turned out that the real goal of the eldest princess of Guide was Hubu Shangshu, not to fight over Peng Ge Lao to compete for the position of secondary assistant, and Li You's guess was skewed. Although I was embarrassed in front of my mistress, I was completely relieved.
Li You was thinking about it, and heard the eldest princess say: "But if Peng Ge himself can't hold on, it's not an opportunity, and I don't mind taking a little more benefits." β
Master Li's face turned straight when he boarded, and he said with righteousness: "Your Highness's words are wrong! Peng Ge's elderly Gao Deshao is one of the only two surviving scholars of the Auxiliary Political University from the former emperor to the present, how can he be taken lightly! If the royal family is ruthless, it will inevitably chill the heart of the old minister, and stealing will not be taken! β
Guide Chitose seemed to have heard the funniest joke, regardless of the image of a noblewoman, covering her mouth and leaning back and forth, laughing ringing and dingdong, and trembling with uranium.
In fact, this will make all those in the know ridiculous, and it is definitely Lord Li's true words...
Looking at the entire imperial court, Li You was certainly one of the people who did not want the scholar Peng Chunshi to have good luck: but at the same time, he was also one of the people who most wanted Peng Ge to be safe and stable.
His wish is that Peng Ge Lao will be safe and sound as a second assistant, without disasters and difficulties, until Xu Shan Ding returns to the dynasty after the expiration of his worrying period.
According to the habits of the Ming officialdom, those who have been scholars will no longer deign to do other official positions, and if scholars leave the cabinet for various reasons, they can only be dismissed or dismissed, and there is absolutely no such disposal method as demotion and demotion.
After the Ming cabinet system was formed, only Yang Yiqing, the trilateral general system during the Jiajing period of Zhengde, was also ridiculed by the people of the time.
Therefore, when Xu Beishan returned to the court, he had to continue to be a scholar, and there was no other path to choose. At that time, the second assistant Peng Ge happened to be too old, and according to the dynasty system, when he was seventy years old, he could ask for Zhishi (whether it was voluntary or not forced).
Therefore, the best way for the imperial court must be that Peng Ge Lao is decent, and Xu Ge Lao will return to the position of a scholar of Jianji Palace.
If Peng Ge Lao refuses, it is normal to put it at other times, and there are not many officials who have passed the age of seventy in the past dynasties. However, in the case of someone who urgently needs to be resettled by the imperial court, Peng Ge is old and refuses to take the initiative to leave for the sake of the imperial court, which is quite criticized, and he can create a classic theory to attack him for being old but not loving.
Therefore, Peng Ge Lao occupies the secondary position, which is the most ideal state of Li Youxin's self-center. If someone else occupies the position, it may not be so convenient after two or three years, because there is no reason to make room for Xu Gushan, unless he encounters an extremely high-spirited sage and takes the initiative to resign and give way.
It can be said that in the past three years, whoever wants to kill Peng Ge Lao, the first person who does not agree is Peng Ge Lao's rival Lord Li, and whoever wants to kill Peng Ge Lao must step on Master Li first! It sounds ironic, but that's the philosophy of the unity of opposites.
How can the eldest princess of Guide not know about her lover's thoughts? But she didn't say it, in fact, she still enjoyed the fun of fighting with Li You, otherwise it would be too dull after getting along for a long time.
Of course, the premise is that she can be sure that although Li You has a lot of thoughts and small actions, he will not completely turn his face with her. Grasp this point, it is better to turn a blind eye to Li You, otherwise he will be angry.
Involved so far, Li You is not a person who can be completely controlled by her after all, not to mention the eldest princess, I am afraid that the emperor is a symbol and prop in the deepest part of his heart.
The eldest princess suddenly remembered something again, and ordered: "You quickly let go of the people of the Lu family, you should be angry enough." β
Li You said indifferently: "Are you sure you want to put it?" Ben still wants to keep you as a hostage, if you are sure, I have nothing to do. ββ¦,
The eldest princess of Guide said confidently: "You don't have to rely on these ghost tricks! β
"Whatever you want." Li You nodded, and was about to get up and say goodbye. Since she has confirmed the thoughts of His Royal Highness Chitose, and she doesn't seem to have the intention of Xunhe, it is time to leave.
His Royal Highness Chitose suddenly remembered something again, stopped Li You and asked, "Slow, did you really misunderstand me for plotting for the position of Peng Ge's old second assistant, and then make a decision on your own?" β
"Exactly, seeing your unprecedented high profile, you went to openly confess your guilt and fight against the elder of the pavilion, which made me frightened a lot."
Hearing this, Guide Chitose said bitterly: "If you were such a stupid person, you would have gone back to Suzhou Mansion to sell sweet potatoes a long time ago, and with my understanding of you, I suddenly felt that it was not so simple!" You also said that you will no longer interfere in the affairs of the court in the near future, but this time you have reversed your word, which is very suspicious. β
"You're overthinking." Li You waved his hand and left the eldest princess's mansion.
However, it was said that Peng Ge Lao had to spend some valuable effort to sort out his relationship with the Lu family, cut off direct contact with the Lu family, and told the relevant people to avoid being touched by others.
Speaking of this, Peng Ge even felt that he had to thank the person who spread the rumors. This kind of rumor is usually lethal, but it alerts him, and the effect is equivalent to startling a snake.
But then Peng Ge Lao had an unprecedented sense of tiredness, if it was in the past, how could there be such a bad thing, who would dare to make irresponsible remarks?
He believes that the biggest reason why these things happened is that he is entering the twilight of his career. And in the past two years, there have been setbacks one after another, and it is still unworthy of the name to be mixed up with the second assistant (it is impossible for him to take over the first assistant's class), which has led to the formation of a stereotype in the hearts of others who think that he has reached the twilight stage.
From this, Peng Ge Lao really experienced what it means to turn the back of people's hearts. A person who makes others unable to have confidence is not bad if he is not left behind, how dare he expect to be given unreserved support.
He could sensitively perceive lately that his protΓ©gΓ©s had begun to be timid, and no longer dared to go into battle shirtless: his followers had begun to hesitate and slow down; The collaborators began to be half-hearted, don't hug the pipa.
As for the hostile ones, they are just waiting for a piece of the pie from them. The eldest princess of Guide openly called him out, which is a very typical thing.
He knows that Guide Chitose is not a brainless person, and arrogance naturally has a reason for arrogance. The first is to brazenly protect Li You even if he is punished, so as to sell favors, show favor to Li You's backers, and take him as help; The second is that Guide Chitose must have a backhand, and only with this certainty can he dare to play against him, but he doesn't understand what the other party's backhand is.
With decades of experience, Peng Ge felt that the silence of these two days was just the dullness before the wind and rain, and in the near future, there would inevitably be a sudden storm.
For decades, he has been a winner most of the time, and he has become the most senior cabinet elder at the moment, which has given him strong confidence in many cases.
But this time he really didn't have confidence, but Peng Ge was also open-minded. Success or failure, let it go, anyway, there are many people who can't die well!γ ps: I won't sleep tonight, hold my thoughts! Lucky enough to be able to hold a chapter before dawn
