Chapter 30(2)
Tang Yuanzheng said: "Brother Li, 'filial piety' is the foundation of human beings, born in the world, if he is not filial to his parents and elders, who can he expect him to be good to? In order to give me a stable environment to study, she would rather not live in a big house, but let me work hard in poverty. How can I forget this kind of kindness, and how can I easily give it up? People should not be too selfish, and they should not only think of their own happiness when dealing with things, but also think more about others. No matter how great or tempting the 'benefit' is, we cannot do anything that harms others and benefits oneself. β
Li Yijie said: "I didn't say that you should sit at home and rely on her to support you, and do nothing." You once served as the champion of the first generation of imperial examinations in the Qing Dynasty, and if you are looking for a private school to teach, you will definitely be able to support yourself. β
Tang said remotely: "No." As a teacher in the poor countryside, how much money can I earn a month? I have no problem living a hard life, but is it possible that my grandmother has raised me for most of my life, just so that I can still go back to the countryside to teach? Then I will participate in the imperial examination, isn't it all in vain? I want to enter the court as an official, not for my own greed for glory and wealth, first of all, to be filial to my grandmother, and to repay her as much as I can. At the same time, in the war years, the people who suffered the most were the people, I was in the people, and I couldn't do anything, but as the emperor's right and left hand, I could often give advice by his side and put forward some ways to govern the country that were beneficial to the people. By the way, in the name of recuperation and recuperation, more harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes were exempted, so that the people could cultivate and graze fertile land and live and work in peace and contentment. It is a great blessing for the country and the people. As a matter of fact, the Manchu and Han dynasties ruled the country, but the emperor must be wise and promising, and love the people like sons, which nationality is it, and what is the big problem? It's just that other people often can't see clearly, and they can't see other races climbing on their heads. This idea is too narrow-minded, and their tyrannical dictatorship should have been overthrown, but could it be that there was no such thing in the Ming Dynasty? If we want the country to prosper in the long run, we should be friends with the people, not different from the monarchs and ministers. I also advised the emperor about this truth, and he also agreed with it. If I can really save thousands of Li people from fire and water, then I am a poor bookbag, and I have done a good deed for the people with all my might. β
Li Yijie was sincerely convinced, and said: "Remote, you have been in the officialdom in the past few years, you have rich experience, but you have also matured a lot, and you are no longer the reckless young man who blushes at every turn and often acts rashly." Tang Yuan said: "People should always grow, right? How can they always stay in the same place?"
Li Yijie smiled bitterly: "Compared with you, I am always stuck in the same place. Tang said remotely: "Or maybe it didn't take the opportunity to 'get through'." But I believe in big brother, you were born to do something. We people are alive, and we will never live a boring life in vain. β
Li Yijie smiled, and remembered the matter of Xuanshuang, which was still a heavy burden in his heart. Now that he had completely trusted Tang Yuanyuan, he had to rely on him for any trouble. cautiously looked around at no one passing by, and lowered his voice and said, "Yuanyuan, I have something to ask you, about Xuanshuang...... Don't mention it to others, okay?" Tang said remotely: "This is natural, the little brother has never been a person with many mouths. Seeing Li Yijie's serious face, he also put on a straight face to cooperate with him.
Li Yijie said in a low voice: "I just heard Lord Lu say that the emperor intends to change the edict and set up another prince. As for Xuanshuang, at most in the future, he will be crowned a prince, and it will be over. In your opinionβis this a matter of nowhere?"
Tang Yuanyuan's expression did not change, but his eyes became a little deeper, and said, "It turns out that Lord Lu also saw it...... He is really a smart person, no wonder Qingtianzhai can have great achievements in the past. That's right, Brother Li, to tell you the truth, as the young master of the crown prince, I move around a lot in front of the emperor and several high-ranking officials, and the information will come faster. Sometimes I talk to the emperor about political affairs, sometimes I drink tea and chat, and I see that he reviews the chapters as usual every day, or looks for someone to play a few games of chess, and there is no such thing as he called Yun'er 'too busy to take a break'. Once, when I was tempted to knock on the side, I felt that the emperor's intention was to delay this matter again and again. dragged on until a certain time, so that everyone's hearts were indifferent, and then the new prince was announced. Xuan Shuang is the best among all the elder brothers in all aspects, but the edge is so strong that even the emperor sometimes has to be afraid of him in his heart. If he rashly made him a monarch, he would inevitably have a lot of twists and turns when he rectified the rule of officials, and I don't know if there is any conflict between the new system and the status quo. Besides, although the emperor is not resolute, he has never seen him delay a matter related to the great cause of his family and country for so long. It's just that Xuanshuang is still full of longing, and I can't betray the emperor, because I haven't shown my words in front of the two of them. β
Li Yijie thought that what he said was similar to Lu Qian. In this way, both of them can accurately discern the situation, but they can't see it really, and they are still dreaming of waiting for him to be the prince with Xuan Shuang, is it really too naΓ―ve?
Tang said remotely: "In the eyes of the younger brother, there is nothing wrong with not being able to be a prince. Being a king is not the ultimate pleasure in the world, but he has been chained to that seat for the rest of his life and cannot get out. Xuanshuang was originally chic and uninhibited by nature, how could he bear to waste his years here? Even if he was not a monarch, with his ingenuity, he could achieve something no matter where he was. People in the world are trapped in this 'money, power' between the two words, it is difficult to get rid of, if you can take a long-term view, all roads, the future is not only the choice of the throne. β
Li Yijie smiled: "Admire, admire." Brother Remote, kill my head this time, I also believe you, you can get the top prize, completely by your own ability. After a pause, he said: "Actually, I didn't want Xuanshuang to be the emperor, the power is chaotic, this childish temperament is high, who knows what will happen once the power is in hand? But listening to what you and Lord Lu said, this officialdom battle is endless, and everyone wants to climb up by stepping on people's heads. As a prince, it is not too low-level official position. Where there are people, there is jealousy, and there will not be lower-level officials who want to harm him? The elder brother who has become the new emperor will not think of getting rid of him when he knows that he is a hidden threat to him? In this way, the hatred of the higher ranks and the jealousy of the lower ranks will not make him suffer from the enemy? Isn't the emperor's good intentions of not wanting to see his brothers killing each other in vain?
Tang Yuan said: "I believe that with Xuanshuang's ability, he can handle it." This kid is very smart, even if he is obsessed with it for a while, when he thinks it clearly, he will not care about it anymore. β
Li Yijie said: "I'm just worried that he is too capable...... You think, he now wants to be the emperor, and although the edict has not yet been issued, he has long regarded himself as a real prince. All of a sudden, what happens when you learn that all your dreams are shattered? Or you can't stand the pressure and completely collapse. Either that...... Rise up and fight back, kill the king and usurp the throne! The stronger his ability, the more widespread his influence in the palace, and the more blood he will shed. If the emperor wants peace, how can he casually place the most talented elder brother? In this way, wouldn't it be counterproductive?"
Tang Yuanyuan also frowned rarely, and said: "Xuanshuang is a reasonable person, Brother Li has time, so I will enlighten him a few more words." β
Before Li Yijie could answer, he suddenly remembered a rush of footsteps in the back of his head. The two stopped talking at the same time and turned to look back. I saw Xuanshuang holding on to the palace wall with one hand and limping over. As soon as he arrived in front of Li Yijie, he immediately knelt down and shouted: "Master Li, the disciple promises that from now on, he will practice hard and never be greedy for fooling around." Please do your best to teach me so that I can become very powerful and surpass you. The disciple sincerely asks that no matter how difficult the practice is, he will follow everything and do not shout that he is tired, do not say a word of bitterness, and do not steal a lazy time, otherwise you will beat me hard. If you hit a place that can't be seen outside, my mother and Huang Ama won't know. β
Tang Yuanyuan smiled and said: "Look, Brother Li, you still said that Xuanshuang treats you badly, isn't this begging to come to you to learn? As long as he finally has an interest in martial arts, nothing can be difficult to defeat him, you have to teach others well." Xuan Shuang came to look for Li Yijie just now, but forgot that Tang Yuan was still on the side, and hurriedly called again: "Master Tang, the apprentice will greet you." β
When Li Yijie saw Xuanshuang at first glance, his heart jumped, and he was afraid that what Shicai said would be heard to him. If he had learned of the idea of another crown prince, it would have turned the world upside down. When I saw him suddenly apprentice, I don't know what his intentions were. In the past, I grabbed him to practice, and often played tricks on him and escaped, but today I am so active, it is still difficult to distinguish between good and evil.
But when he thought that he was very likely to rebel in the future, his talent was already sufficient, and coupled with the world's martial arts, the trouble was even greater. Therefore, he couldn't take his every move lightly, and asked cautiously: "Wait a minute, Xuan Shuang, you change your mind and are willing to practice martial arts, that's a good thing." But Master has another question for you, what is the purpose of your sudden change of sex?"
Xuan Shuang pouted and said, "Why are you asking so much? You are my master, I want to learn martial arts, you should not say a word, and teach me honestly." Everyone is refreshed, and this business is done simply. At this time, he was arrogant and majestic, how could he have the appearance of being an apprentice humbly seeking advice?
Li Yijie said: "No, what is the reason for practicing martial arts, and what is the development after completing the study, it is the most sloppy." I'm going to have to figure out why. Xuanshuang said unhappily: "Okay, okay, it's all to kill him." As long as I practice better than that person, I don't have to be afraid of him anymore. He is my defeated general, I let him live and let him die, I want him to know that he is powerful, and he will no longer dare to bully people casually. β
Li Yijie sank his face and said, "Master told you a long time ago that learning martial arts is not about being brave and ruthless. If it's just to fight with the rest of the elder brothers, fighting for the short and long of the moment, such an apprentice, I won't teach!"
Tang Yuanyuan saw that this pair of master and apprentice met together, and a few words disagreed, and the atmosphere was stiff again. Hurriedly came to play the round and said: "Brother Li, look at you, this temper has come up again, didn't you just say that you will be more patient with Xuanshuang?" Xiang Xuanshuang smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I know that our Xuanshuang is a good boy." You tell Master Tang, which elder brother has made you unhappy? If you want to deal with a person, you may not necessarily use martial arts to beat him down, and there are many ways to deal with it. This requires wisdom and brains. β
Xuan Shuang said unhappily: "I didn't fight with anyone, I'm going to kill someone now!"
Tang Yuanyuan said with a smile: "It's all to the point of arguing about killing, and you still say that you don't have a fighting spirit? Between children, what's the big deal with each other, how can there be that kind of deep hatred? Tell me, who is that person?" Then he smiled at Li Yijie and said: "Children are like this, it's good to coax a few words, you are so fierce, naturally you want to frighten him." When we were young, didn't we experience a battle of will? But in hindsight, those things that were so angry in the past were really nothing. Childhood still needs more memories to be wonderful enough. β
Li Yijie was still angry, and said: "You don't listen to it, what is he talking about? Studying martial arts is for the sake of killing people, and he can't figure it out! A person who practices martial arts, if he is not talented, can still make up for it the day after tomorrow, and the most important thing is that he must not break his conscience." I don't want to teach my brother today and teach a killer demon king in the future. Bullying has always been the most despised in me. β
Xuan Shuang said angrily: "Bullying, yes! Such a bastard should be killed! But is it me who is strong?"
