Chapter 338: See the driver
What are you doing here? β
"Let go, let go!"
"You guys are watching from the door!"
β¦β¦
Tong Guan is definitely a great-looking and powerful existence among the eunuchs, but he met Li Kui very aggrievedly, and the mission broke free a few times, and the arm that was dragged was like being clamped by iron, and he didn't move at all, so he gave up the struggle. was pulled into the small courtyard by Li Kui, and the courtyard door was slammed shut as soon as he entered.
"Black boy, we're going to see the rebellion!"
On the streets of Tokyo, there are people who don't think much of a big deal when they see the excitement.
It's a pity that Li Kui disappointed them, and they didn't let them in behind closed doors.
Not only was he not allowed to enter, but Tong Guan was also unloved, and was pulled into the hall by Li Kui. In this meeting, Tong Guan was really a little scared. Again he struggled, but alas, any resistance he made was in vain.
Fortunately, Li Kui didn't want to deal with him, just found a secluded place to ask.
Li Kui didn't believe that just to disgust Su Zhe, Li Qingchen would make such a big move, this kind of thing couldn't be discussed with Huang Tingjian at all, and Tong Guan, an old guy, has been in the palace for most of his life, and his reaction to the conspiracy is simply instinctively keen.
Tong Guan hummed and chirped for a while, and after listening to what Li Kui said, he hesitated: "He just wants to ruin Sumen's reputation, can you think of it?" It's easy to say, Li Qingchen didn't find Su Xiang's handle, so he could only make something out of nothing, beat a few of you into traitors, and let him follow this reason to find trouble with Su Xiang. β
Of course Li Kui thought of it, but he always felt that he didn't have any skills, so he knew that the important members of the court who were flying and doggy, just these tricks, this is too much to look down on the high-risk industry of traitors, right?
"Of course I know, there are many ways to ruin your reputation, Li Yun and I, even if we add Gao Yu, what bad impact can we bring to Sumen? We are not even Jinshi, if Li Qingchen can let us try to draw tribute in the province, there is no need for him to be corrupted at all, wouldn't it be better for the master to follow his wishes? Li Kui sneered very undisciplinedly, and continued: "Even if a few of us are in the Jinshi, don't talk about meritorious service, right?" It's not like you're going to do evil before you become an official, right? With these non-existent speculations and conjectures, this thing can make Su Xiang embarrassed and messed up? β
Li Kui is a guy who doesn't have much discipline, and Li Yun is similar, as for Gao Yu...... As long as he is given a chance, he will definitely not disappoint Li Qingchen.
It's just that they rebelled against the master, which is impossible. But to be a courtier in front of the emperor, a few of them have done it completely.
Tong Guan looked Li Kui up and down, and sighed in his heart: "This is a talent, and if he is outcast outside the palace, it is simply a tyrannical thing." It's just that he can't say this, and if he says it, he will definitely be fisted by Li Kui.
Pretending to be casual and brushing the beard on his chin, the movement is natural, but after revealing his identity, it feels weird.
You are a eunuch, and you dare to grow a beard.
Why didn't the emperor kill you?
Tong Guan didn't know that he was despised by Li Kui, and said quite proudly: "You kid, I always feel that there are many bad people in this world, but no matter how many bad people there are in this world, there are not many opportunities to do evil things." Li Qingchen just wanted to drive Su Zhe away, but this involved the emperor's thoughts. Today, although His Majesty is young, he has an old act, and outsiders can't see his thoughts. These monkeys who change the law are still thinking about controlling His Majesty's thoughts, which is really unbelievable. β
"Are you saying that Your Majesty has not yet decided whether to put reformers in power or conservatives?"
Li Kui was a little confused, the conservatives were assigned one by one, starting with the little people. Fan Chong's father, Fan Zuyu, was promoted before, and the chair in the official office was sent to the south before it was hot.
As for Lu Dafang and other conservative bigwigs, they all left the capital one by one.
Once the reformers take full control of the government, it will be an unimaginable nightmare for conservatives.
And under Sumen, there are countless Jinshi. Especially Su Shi is still the kind of celebrity who makes friends all over the world, which puts a lot of pressure on the Fa-changing faction. Many centrists, because of their personal relationships, are reluctant to express their support at the first time.
It can be seen that the court is still playing.
Li Kui is satisfied with this result, he is afraid that he has not been admitted to the Jinshi? Su Zhe turned yellow.
I don't even have a backer to be an official. As for Huang Tingjian, although the relationship between Qin Guan and others was maintained by him. But the problem is that these Sumen seniors, the biggest official talent, dare to say that they have been officials for more than 20 years, which is too embarrassing, and they are embarrassed to show their hands.
Tong Guan was also worried about Li Kui's troublesome demons, and said: "Li Kui, you don't have to worry that this trip will make you bad with the courtiers. No matter how much trouble the courtiers make, they will end up where His Majesty is. If Your Majesty doesn't nod, no one can do anything about you. Besides, in the past two years, Your Majesty, just listening to the troubles you have caused, there are no less than a dozen things, with your murderous character, do you think you can meet Your Majesty casually? β
When Li Kui heard this, he said in his heart: Not really, right? Men do things very secretly. Pretending to be innocent, he said: "I am punishing evil and promoting good, and the essence is still good." But the gentlemen are also people who want to save face, they just resisted the decree, and now they accept the decree, doesn't it make outsiders say that Li is a repeated villain? β
"Before leaving the palace, Niangniang instructed me that now that the harem is not rich enough, the Liu family, as a relative, has the unshirkable responsibility to dedicate Huitong Qian Zhuang to His Majesty." Tong Guan is most afraid that Li Kui will make trouble, this guy is full of gangsterism, Tong Guan is also puzzled, how this product got into the team of readers, it is simply incredible.
Li Kui glared and said, "This is a threat to me?" "Although Huitong Qianzhuang said that the profit of a year is not as good as snowflake salt, after the secret recipe has been contributed, the money that Li Kui can use is obtained from this business. If it was really given to the emperor by the Liu family, not to mention anything else, it would be difficult for Li Jiaguang to maintain his current expansion.
Yizhou Li has begun a period of rapid expansion, shipyards, carriages and horses, fleets, manors, training villages, and crews are all bottomless pits, without a large amount of money invested, and the money invested in front will be wasted.
Li Kui's tone was calm, but the aura of killing on his body rolled like a tide, so frightened that Tong Guan didn't dare to move, and secretly complained in his heart, this guy won't see the emperor like this, right?
It's just that the six relatives don't recognize it!
Although Tong Guan didn't dare to move, he still said to Li Kui: "Don't make a fool of yourself, this is Tokyo City, not Linyi City." β
Li Kui really didn't want to scare Tong Guan, he just heard Liu Qingjing, the little girl, threaten him, which made him angry. For Tong Guan, it is enough to scare and scare, and if it is too much, it will turn his face. He stretched out his hand to Tong Guan and said, "Okay, take the holy decree out!" β
"Nope."
Tong Guan puffed up his chest and said disdainfully: "I don't know what the people in front of the palace think, so I just gave an oracle and what kind of holy decree was used, it's really troublesome enough." By the way, when Niangniang came, she instructed me that it was okay to teach Your Majesty to play mahjong, but you can't let Your Majesty fall into it. β
"It's easy, I see."
"What do you understand?"
"Don't let Your Majesty enjoy it." Li Kui said firmly, isn't it just to let the emperor lose money without a single game. It's not easy. If Tong Guan knew that Li Kui understood his original words in this way, he would have to tremble with fright.
Our family is asking you not to let Your Majesty be interested in mahjong, not to let you disgust Your Majesty.
However, it is not easy to disgust the emperor. Mahjong is a game of four people, sitting at the mahjong table, if three of the four people are in a group, the emperor will definitely lose to the table. Everything is afraid of what happens, in case someone deliberately wants to tie up with the emperor and feed the emperor cards one by one, then Li Kui will be a little difficult to do.
He made his own request: "Gao Yu will go with us, right?" β
"Gao Yu?"
Tong Guan didn't know who Gao Yu was, and after listening to Li Kui's explanation, he realized that he was Su Shi's scholar. It's just that this scholar is overage, so he can only be used as a long.
In the palace, no matter how big the eunuch is, he does not dare to make his own opinions.
Tong Guan asked: "Since Gao Yu is the long-term follower of Master Su, why is he not on the list of audiences." β
"How do I know?" Li Kui muttered: "Four people play mahjong, how can three people play?" If there is a lack of someone, is it possible for you to ask your majesty to pick someone around you to come out and make up the number? β
"That's right." Tong Guan was still not at ease, and after getting up, he turned his head to Li Kui and said, "I'll ask." β
He didn't need to go to the palace to ask, just ask the palace people who had been to the palace before.
When he heard that it was the Imperial City Division that vetoed Gao Yu, Tong Guan immediately made a decision: "Gao Yu can't succeed, the people of the Imperial City Division are a little worried about his past. β
Although from the bottom of his heart, Tong Guan thinks that the Imperial City Division has nothing to do, and the last thing he should worry about is Li Kui.
Li Kui was helpless, so he had to say to Tong Guan: "That's no way, learn mahjong, don't play two games, how can you learn?" β
"If you find a few people who often play on weekdays to make up the numbers, I will tell the palace and let them go." Tong Guan didn't have a rule, and he didn't have anyone he trusted to take on this role.
Eunuchs are even more impossible, playing mahjong is a game to sit down and play, eunuchs and emperors sit together, isn't this long enough?
"Is it okay at the Imperial Gym?"
"No, how did these fighting men enter the palace, wouldn't it disturb the holy driver?"
"What about the people of the palace?"
"Same."
Tong Guan puffed up and said, "Li Kui, can't you find a reliable person?" β
"That's just my mother."
Li Kui can't help it, his wife has now inherited his prestige in the Baokangmen area, killing the wives in the surrounding houses and throwing away their armor to dominate one side.
Tong Guan smiled bitterly: "Let your mother go, like words?" β
At this time, Li Kui glanced at the door, and Fan Chong pretended to listen with his ears pricked up. Speaking of Fan Chong, he really doesn't have any bad intentions, he feels that Li Kui has gone crooked on the road of studying, making friends with powerful people all day long, and now he has a relationship with the harem, which is simply a shame for scholars. He is a humble gentleman, and decided to wait for Tong Guan to leave and persuade Li Kui.
In his opinion, Li Kui still has a talent for reading, if he doesn't get in this subject, maybe he will get in the next subject?
Suddenly, Li Kui pointed at Fan Chong and said to Tong Guan: "Is this person okay?" β
"Is it a scholar?"
"Of course."
"Is your net worth innocent?"
"Poetry and books are heirlooms, and my uncle is Huayang Jingrengong. Bachelor of the Renzong Dynasty. His grandfather was Duke LΓΌ. β
"Lantian Lu Gong?"
"The East Lyro Clan."
Tong Guan had to take a look at Li Kuigao, the people he made with this guy were a little untouchable!
Before the royal boxing gym, the military man of the front division of the palace. Suddenly, in a blink of an eye, a noble son appeared. Fan Chong is undoubtedly the best young generation in this era, his grandfather Lu Gong, and Lu Gong's father is the famous minister Lu Yijian, Lu Yijian's father is Guanglu Cheng, which is not very powerful. But the uncle is the crown prince and the prince, and his name is Lu Mengzheng.
There are three prime ministers in one door, which shows how powerful the Donglai Lu clan is.
In comparison, on the contrary, the dozen or so Jinshi of the Basket Tian Lu clan also looked bleak compared to them.
This person is too good, Tong Guan immediately made a decision: "Bring him with me tomorrow, this one goes, there is no reason to refute it in the palace." β
Fan Chong was unlucky, also because of his father Fan Zuyu. He said that Wang Anshi was a minister who bewitched Emperor Shenzong, and there was no time for his big mouth to stop, saying that Cai Jing was clever and not talented. Anyway, the Reformers are a character and have been despised by him.
If Fan Zuyu stops a little, he will already be in the middle of the matter before he is degraded, as long as the popularity is not so bad. He was able to occupy the position of Hanlin Scholar before Li Qingchen. In terms of literary talent, he is a famous Confucian who can compile "Zizhi Tongjian" with Sima Guang, and is responsible for the compilation of the history of the Tang Dynasty, which shows that he is talented and knowledgeable. This is also a jinshi of the Renzong Dynasty. Advancing to Hallym Bachelor is really not a problem. And the Hanlin bachelor presided over the provincial affairs, which was an unwritten rule of the Great Song Dynasty. If Fan Zuyu really became a bachelor of Hanlin, there would be nothing to do with Li Qingchen.
Although there was no problem with Fan Chong's accompaniment, Tong Guan didn't say anything full.
But I didn't expect Fan Chong to be unhappy, his current level is as easy as being admitted to the Jinshi Examination. But it is very difficult for him to curry favor with the emperor with strange and obscene techniques.
However, Li Kui is also a direct person, and stretched out his hand to Fan Chong and said, "Pay back the money!" β
Fan Chong stared at Li Kui with beads in his eyes like an enemy, and the sadness in his eyes was pitiful. But what kind of person Li Kui is, he won't do anything to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, let alone have pity for a scholar.
"Although Fan is not talented, he will see him tomorrow, and he has to denounce Er and other despicable deeds."
Enduring the humiliation, Fan Chong also lost the idea of urging Li Kui and others to study, and was alone in the corner to mourn.
Li Kui also gloated: "Brother Fan, you can appoint it!" β
The next day, it was a beautiful day.
The group of three rushed to the Xuande Gate, and after passing the search of the guards, they were led into the palace by Tong Guan. During this period, Tong Guan also explained how to meet the driver, how to salute and other instructions. If you follow the ordinary way of driving, it is indispensable to preach from the officials of the Ministry of Rites. But they are a special case, and that's why it's much more sparing.
They are going to play mahjong, don't count on the vertical arch hall, they can only go to the warm pavilion of the emperor on weekdays. However, it was not easy to see the emperor, and he didn't give him a sip of water, so he was stunned that they were cold for an hour.
Li Yun stared at the pastries on the table and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
To eat or not to eat?
It's a fatal question.
Fan Chong also lost the arrogance of his teeth and claws before going out, and sat upright weakly, there was no way, the old Fan family had a good tutor, even if he starved to death and died of thirst, he couldn't let himself be rude.
Suddenly, a sharp voice outside the door shouted: "Your Majesty has arrived!" β
"Grass people Li Kui!"
"Grass people Li Yun!"
"Chen Fan Chong!"
"Hooray, hooray, hooray!"
Li Kui bowed his body and turned his head to look at Fan Chong, there was a Wensan official in this guy, and in an instant, it made his heart sour, Brother Fan! You're so unsociable.
Everyone is a grass people, how dare you call yourself a minister?
