Chapter 63: Concessions

concession

The master looked at the backs of the two of them, not knowing whether it was right or wrong, and sighed leisurely.

Maybe he didn't know it yet, but his favor eventually spread to the whole world.

When the master returned to the bamboo valley, Ah He was already gone, and no matter how the little master kept him, Ah He was like a mouse that could smell the smell of a cat, and the soles of his feet were smeared with oil, as if this bamboo valley had become purgatory.

The master entered the bamboo valley, and the little master entered Chang'an.

Li Zhongxian did a beautiful job because of the morning, he was wrapped in a cloth on his head, and he straightened up, although he was still bent down in front of the Holy Emperor, and his face was smiling at any time, but in front of the other eunuchs, his waist was extremely straight.

Even the eunuch who was in charge of the seal of the celebrant only bowed his head slightly when he saw it.

In the past, when the Holy Emperor was talking to people about things, he always retreated with interest, and he didn't dare to watch His Majesty talk to people, and he couldn't watch it.

Today, he was about to exit the door, but he didn't expect the Holy Emperor to wave his hand and say, "You wait here." ”

He still didn't dare to look up and see who it was, but the Holy Emperor let him be here, which represented great trust, and he remembered what the Xiangshi said, and thought that he must go out of the palace in the future and reward him well.

The Holy Emperor looked at the little master in front of him and sighed, what should come is still coming.

He basically knew everything, a little sad and a little relieved.

"Don't look at me, although we have joined forces, but I have to balance and eliminate the power and influence of your Confucius Temple, you should understand this. ”

The little master nodded solemnly.

Friends and comrades-in-arms need a standpoint, and different positions naturally lead to different relationships.

"Master asked me to speak, is what happened recently a family affair or a state affair?"

Hearing this, although it was expected, the Holy Emperor's pupils shrank, and he was silent.

Naturally, he would not be stupid enough to ask stupid questions about how family affairs are and how state affairs are.

The contradiction between him and the Confucius Temple, to put it bluntly, is the contradiction between the Confucius Temple and the Xuanyuan family, the Confucius Temple is not bad, but he is afraid that the heirs who will take over in the future will not be able to balance and restrain the courage of the Confucius Temple.

This sentence refers not only to the eldest prince, but also to everything that has happened recently, including his deliberate delay in the selection of apprentices in the Confucius Temple, including the framing of Chai Xintong and so on.

If it is a state matter, then everyone puts the matter on the table, and if it is a family matter, then it will be handled by one's own affairs.

The Holy Emperor was silent, and finally said slowly: "The results of the Confucius Temple Literary Examination will be announced on a later date, and in addition, the proposal on subsidizing the scholars who are rushing to take the examination will be discussed by the Emperor of Japan in person with the three elders (Guo Jinghui of Shangshu Ling, Chen Boju of Zhongshu Ling, and An Shixiang of Shizhong) for half a year. Also, the emperor has a reluctant request, if the little master is free, he can let the weak son (the youngest son) Rende ask the little master for some things on cultivation. ”

The success of the literary examination and the scholar's rescue proposal were both expected by him, but it was beyond his expectations that he should teach Xuanyuan Rende.

"His Majesty the Holy Emperor's martial arts and cultivation progress can be regarded as a leader in the entire world, why bother to push His Royal Highness the Little Prince to his subordinates?"

The little master spoke extremely cautiously, if there was no such thing, and the three of their great masters were not hammered, he would naturally say, "The Holy Emperor cultivates, and there are few people in the world who can stand out", but just after experiencing failure, he changed his words in time.

The Holy Emperor became serious, walked up to him, stared at him and said, "Those who guard the world must learn from the strengths of a hundred schools. ”

The little master's heart jumped suddenly, and the surprise in his eyes was not concealed at all, even Li Zhongxian's heart trembled, and his body trembled, this sentence already shows who his future master is!

Under the gaze of the Holy Emperor, the little master nodded slowly.

The Holy Emperor walked back to the dragon chair and looked at the little eunuch with his head bowed.

"Li Zhongxian, from now on, he will be the master of ceremonies!

When Li Zhongxian heard this, he couldn't hide the joy in his eyes, and immediately bowed to the Holy Emperor.

"Thank you, Lord Longne!"

......

When the little master left, the Holy Emperor summoned Guo Jinghui in.

When he heard the Holy Emperor himself say about the concession to the Confucius Temple, he felt both incredible and reasonable.

"Jinghui, do you know what I mean?" he stepped off the dragon chair and patted the old man who had treated the world for him for more than ten years.

The old man nodded.

"He has always been my son, ordinary people make mistakes, and it will be good to correct them next time, but when he makes mistakes, he almost affects the whole world. ”

He looked at the old man, and for a moment it seemed as if he was many years older.

"The son made a mistake, and the father had to find a way to remedy it. I'm sure you know how you feel about your son. ”

Guo Jinghui trembled slightly when he heard this, he understood the feeling of losing his son.

"Transfer it to Dali Temple, he can't push it off by framing Chai Xintong; as for hooking up with outsiders, forming a group of parties, and causing chaos in the dynasty, these are all minor problems, Your Majesty, who do you think is suitable?"

The Holy Emperor looked at Guo Jinghui and nodded gratefully.

"Why don't you expect it?" asked Guo Jinghui.

The Holy Emperor sighed.

"Old opponent, that's fine, Jinghui, you know me. ”

The Holy Emperor emphasized once again, and the High Holy Emperor was like an old man next door at this time, chattering endlessly, repeating a sentence several times.

Guo Jinghui looked at the Holy Emperor with a worried face, and said directly: "Don't worry, the words killing the father and killing the younger brother have nothing to do with the eldest prince." ”

There were tears in the Holy Emperor's eyes, and he patted Guo Jinghui on the shoulder.

He slowly walked out of the Qianlong Palace, his back was a little rickety, and the commanding Holy Emperor was now like an ordinary old man.

Guo Jinghui stayed alone in the Qianlong Palace, opened his mouth, and finally sighed faintly.

"He didn't want to do that!"
