Volume 1: Who Breaks the Void by the Stars Chapter 61 The carp is back and returning home
"Eleven Lang, you have done a good job in this plan, well done!"
Han Chaozong definitely didn't expect that the planning that he thought would take a long time would be completed in a simple day in Ye Chang's hands. I didn't expect that according to this plan to implement the relocation, not only does Jing Zhaoyin not need to pay too much money, but also make money.
After the re-planning, there are more than 40 shops that can be built along the dug waterhole than the ones that are now demolished and relocated, and these sites and shops controlled by the government, whether they are rented or sold, can be more extensive in the hands of Jingzhao Mansion. Although the gentleman does not say profit, but for the imperial court, which now has to spend everywhere and has not increased its income, how much burden will it be reduced!
Moreover, Han Chaozong is a person who values hard work and ignores fame, so Li Bai's poems are famous all over the world, and he also wrote "Book with Han Jingzhou" to him, hoping to get his attention and recommendation, but he has never done much. The reason is that he feels that although Li Bai has a bad tongue, he has no practical talent.
"Don't dare to be, because it's ugly, if there is anything inappropriate, please ask Han Gong to correct it." Ye Chang was very modest.
"There's nowhere to change!" Han Chaozong said with a smile: "The Son of Heaven summoned me to see me, and I will recommend it to you!" ”
"Wait a minute, Han Gong, didn't we say okay, I'll finish this matter for Han Gong and go back to my hometown?" Ye Chang suddenly panicked, his plan was to use the complicated affairs of demolition and reconstruction to entangle Ji Wen, and then return to Xiuwu freely, not to stay in the capital as an official.
is to be out of office, at this time, his reputation is insufficient, how many people can convince him?
"It is the old man's duty to promote talents for the country, and it is your boy's duty to serve the country and contribute his wisdom. Since Confucius has great power, he has to bear great responsibility. Han Chaozong snorted: "Didn't the old man say that he would let you go after finishing this!" ”
Ye Chang once again appreciated the "domineering" of this Datang bureaucrat!
He was a little stunned, and then he thought that he came to find Han Chaozong, and he was really seeking skin with the tiger. What he has in his mind is to serve the country, not allowed to play football is to serve the country, to study hard is to serve the country, not allowed to return to his hometown, or to serve the country......
Is it for the sake of serving the Li Tang court......
Ye Chang slandered in his heart, and at the same time secretly scolded himself, why was he coaxed by Han Chaozong three or two times, and he forgot that he had a criminal record!
What this guy was thinking about was how to be loyal to the court, and in his opinion, doing anything for this was a matter of course.
But now is not the time to regret it, not to mention, if you are really recommended as an official, it is better than being stared at by Jiwen.
"You bathe and change your clothes, get ready, or Your Majesty will call you." Han Chaozong hurriedly threw down this sentence, and then went out.
Riding on a horse and hurried to Xingqing Palace, Han Chaozong pondered how to recommend Ye Chang, but when he arrived at the main gate of Xingqing Palace, which is the Xingqing Gate of the West Gate, he found that Prime Minister Li Linfu was already there.
Li Linfu looked at Han Chaozong and smiled slightly, even if Han Chaozong and Li Linfu disagreed, he had to admit that when he laughed, it made people feel like a spring breeze.
After the two finished the ceremony, Li Linfu was in front and Han Chaozong was behind, and they entered Xingqing Palace one after another. Because it was not an official court meeting, Li Longji did not meet them in the main building of the diligent government affairs, but in the agarwood pavilion in the northeast corner of Longchi. When the two arrived, they could hear a frolicking cheer inside, Han Chaozong's brows suddenly furrowed, and Li Linfu was silent.
Bypassing the willow trees, I saw that on a small lawn outside the Agarwood Pavilion, the palace maids and eunuchs were divided into two teams and were kicking balls. However, they are not playing keju, but football that has become popular lately - official matches require large venues, but in the case of insufficient numbers, a small open space can also play a game of five or seven players.
Li Longji was not in the middle of it, he just watched from the side, laughing from time to time. Li Linfu and Han Chaozong both noticed that a little Daoist Gu was standing beside Li Longji, while Yang Yuhuan, who was also dressed as a Dao Aunt, was standing a little farther away.
"Twenty-nine mothers?" Li Linfu recognized this little Dao Gu, and couldn't help but be a little curious in his heart, this little Dao Gu has always been unfavored, how could she appear here?
In a blink of an eye, he thought of the relationship between the football scene and the insect girl, and vaguely understood in his heart, and looked at Han Chaozong again, and saw that Han Chaozong's face was cold, so he made a gesture.
This gesture is to persuade Han Chaozong not to admonish, but Li Linfu understands that it is okay if he does not persuade him, if he persuades, Han Chaozong is even more like a loud cockfight, and he has to rush forward.
Li Longji summoned Li Linfu in order to deal with some political affairs, but now he is neglecting government affairs and pushing most of the things to Li Linfu.
Although he is not highly educated, and even wrote the "joy of making a deer" to celebrate the birth of a son as "the joy of making a deer," he does have a set of rules for handling government affairs. It didn't take long for all the things to be reported, and Li Longji was extremely satisfied with the handling.
"Han Gong, I summoned you here today to ask about the excavation of the waterhole in the West Market." Li Longji next said to Han Chaozong.
At the time of the Tang Dynasty, the relationship between the monarch and the minister was not as serious as that between the master and the slave in later generations, so Li Longji also used the honorific title of "Han Gong" when he called Han Chaozong. Han Chaozong was originally going to admonish, but when he heard that Li Longji was handling political affairs, he couldn't interrupt, and after Li Linfu finished playing the right thing, he just wanted to speak, and Li Longji talked to him about the business again.
Han Chaozong's words full of admonition suddenly held back, which made him quite uncomfortable. Li Linfu laughed slightly in his heart: The power and skill of the Son of Heaven can not be dealt with by a figure like Han Chaozong.
Han Chaozong finished the plan of the West City and submitted the drawings. Li Longji looked at the sketch, especially when he heard that such a big project not only did not cost much, but also had the possibility of making a fortune for Jingzhao, so he praised it again and again. When he heard that he took the opportunity of the renovation of the old street to promote the application of cement, he wondered: "What is cement? ”
So Han Chaozong told the origin of cement again, and Li Longji suddenly realized: "It turned out to be something made by the young man named Ye Chang...... Does it really work? ”
Hearing Han Chaozong's affirmative response, Li Longji smiled and waved his hand: "Then I will act according to Han Gong's performance." ”
"The minister wants to protect this Ye Chang to His Majesty." Han Chaozong felt that the time was ripe now, and he began to recommend Ye Chang.
Listening to his detailed introduction to Ye Chang's many extraordinary, Li Longji became interested, originally he just wanted to knock on the side to understand what kind of character this Ye Chang is. After Han Chaozong finished speaking, he said to Li Linfu: "Qing is the prime minister, have you ever heard of Ye Chang?" ”
Li Linfu had a smile on his face: "The minister has indeed heard of it, and the minister has also heard him compose a poem in the original Qinglong Temple in Leyou, a sentence 'The sunset is infinitely good, but it is just near dusk', which made the guests cry and leave the table." ”
"Hehe, the congratulatory guest resignation form has been on it twice." Li Longji shook his head with a smile: "A poem retreats from an old minister, if he writes a few more poems, won't my court be empty?" ”
Li Longji's words were unintentional, but Li Linfu's listeners were intentional, he remained silent and continued: "The minister only knew that he was quite famous for poetry and quick wisdom, but he didn't know that he also had such skills in city construction and civil engineering. However, the minister heard that ......"
Han Chaozong's eyes narrowed slightly, Li Linfu's honey-belly sword is known to the world, and until now, he has been touting Ye Chang vigorously, but the more he is like this, the more uneasy Han Chaozong's heart becomes.
"It's not the first time I've heard that this Ye Langjun can write poetry, as far as the minister knows, before he entered Beijing this time, he met Gongsun Auntie in Fenglingdu, and he also burned the Yellow River carp to eat together, at that time Ye Chang also wrote a poem "Title Fenglingdu", the minister loved his thoughts of worrying about the people, and remembered this poem."
When Li Linfu said this, Han Chaozong's heart jumped suddenly.
The song "Title Fenglingdu", He Zhizhang also told him that he had even seen the wooden planks that were dismantled by Jiao Sui.
"People come and go on the river, but love the beauty of carp. Jun looks at a leaf boat, haunted by the turmoil. ”
Li Linfu read this poem again, and Li Longji was still smiling at first, but gradually his smile retracted, and his brows furrowed.
"But love carp beauty!"
Han Chaozong suddenly thought of something, and suddenly realized: Li Linfu's honey-belly sword, sure enough!
Because the surname of the Tang royal family is Li, and "Li" and "carp" have the same sound, Li Longji twice ordered a ban on the killing of carp in the third year of Kaiyuan and the nineteenth year of Kaiyuan, and those who sell carp may even be roded sixty. This ban was resisted by the people, and even some officials ignored it. But that's a matter underneath, and in front of Li Longji, this ban must still be observed.
Li Linfu chanted this poem, talking about the matter of Fenglingdu, on the surface he admired Ye Chang's poetry talent and worry about the people, but in fact, he told Li Longji that this kid is a guy who doesn't take your ban to heart, bold and lawless!
Han Chaozong glared and protested: "Your Majesty, Ye Chang is young, or he doesn't know the ban back then!" ”
After he said this, Li Linfu smiled.
If Han Chaozong didn't mention the matter, Li Longji could still pretend to forget the matter and thus be vague about the past, but since Han Chaozong had mentioned it, it would be impossible for Li Longji not to pursue it.
When Li Longji got to his current situation, on the one hand, he was negligent in political affairs, and on the other hand, he was extremely afraid that his subordinates would not take him to heart and disobey him.
"Ye Chang, a genius in the world, if you sharpen it for another ten years, you can run a business for Your Majesty, and after 20 years, the center will have one more capable minister, and Your Majesty will not be ...... because of small mistakes."
"Han Gong is right." Li Longji smiled: "Such a talent needs to be sharpened. ”
Speaking of this, he put his hands behind his back and motioned for everyone to come with him, but after taking two steps, he said to the insect girl: "Twenty-nine Niang, you go and talk to Taizhen." ”
The insect girl nodded, she looked at Li Longji with a blank eye. Although she is young, she also knows that her father is supporting her, and if she is separated, he is going to say something that is not suitable for her to hear.
"Ye Chang really needs to be sharpened, after listening to what Han Gong said, there is no problem with this person's intelligence, what needs to be sharpened is his heart." Li Longji put his hands behind his back and glanced back at Han Chaozong.
Han Chaozong also agrees with this, Ye Chang's temperament really makes him have a headache, he is tall and narrow, it is really not the way of a famous minister.
"Therefore, I am ready to release Ye Chang and return to my hometown." Li Longji's next words made Han Chaozong's jaw almost fall.
"What?" Han Chaozong didn't hear clearly: "The minister has been deaf recently, please say it again." ”
"Let him go home." Li Longji laughed.
This is such as Meng Haoran's story!
At the beginning, Meng Haoran was recommended by Wang Wei and met Li Longji on an extremely coincidental occasion, and Meng Haoran chanted the poems of his life to Li Longji, which was also a high-level interview in the Tang Dynasty. But when Meng Haoran chanted the sentence "I don't know how to give up", Li Longji turned his face: "Qing doesn't seek talent, I haven't abandoned Qing, so why accuse me?" ”
So Meng Haoran was sent back to his hometown, and he never appeared again. Moreover, Han Chaozong also tried to recommend Meng Haoran and invite him to be named, but he failed to make an appointment.
Han Chaozong's face was a little pale, but he said in front of Ye Chang that he would definitely protect him, stay in Jingzhao Mansion, and give himself up as a helper!
He was not desperate in his heart, and said a few words for Ye Chang, Li Longji had no choice but to say: "Today, Ye Chang abducted Twenty-Nine Niang to the West Market - Han Gong, you must not know about this matter." ”
This made Han Chaoguo speechless for a moment, how old is Twenty-Nine Niang, Ye Chang actually abducted her to Xishi, this is not only bold, but also unscrupulous, if it doesn't matter, maybe she will become a Helan Minzhi again!
If this is the case, then his reputation as a person recommended by Han Chaozong in his life will be ruined.
Li Linfu understood that this was an excuse used by Li Longji to block the entanglement of the Korean Dynasty, the heavenly family was ruthless, not to mention that Twenty-nine Niang was not favored.
He was very proud in his heart, Ye Chang's plan for the West Market and the cement he offered made him worry in his heart, these two fell on Han Chaozong, and Han Chaozong might squeeze into the ranks of the prime minister with a little credit.
A Li Shizhi has made Li Linfu extremely disgusted, and he is trying to squeeze him out of the gang. If there is a Li Shizhi and another Han Chaozong, won't his efforts be in vain?
Han Chaozong left Xingqing Palace full of disappointment.
disappointed in himself, disappointed in Li Longji, and disappointed in Ye Chang.
Ye Chang was closely watched by the servants in Jingzhao Mansion, and there was no chance to slip away, and Ye Chang had no doubt that if he slipped away, Han Chaozong would definitely send someone to arrest him. Bored in the yamen, he was thinking about how to get out. For him, this is not difficult, passive sabotage is the lowest level, and the middle level is to behave incompatible with the subordinates, so that the subordinates will pressure Han Chaozong to let him go. Of course, there are also the highest ones, which will require him to use his brain.
He figured out four or five advanced methods, seven or eight intermediate methods, and as for the low-level methods, he didn't have to think about it at all. When I was thinking about which method to choose, I realized that Han Chaozong had returned.
Han Chaozong's expression still looked very good, and when he saw Ye Chang, he smiled.
"Eleven Lang, I have already recommended you to His Majesty, I never thought that your reputation had already entered the ears of Your Majesty, and Your Majesty also valued your talent very much, so I ......"
Ye Chang frowned, he really didn't want to be favored by Li Longji.
"Therefore, Your Majesty thinks that it is time to sharpen your mind and use it greatly, so let you go back to your hometown." Han Dynasty Zongdao.
"Huh?"
