The saying "dove occupying the magpie's nest" made Li Ye feel very uncomfortable. Everything he got was earned through his own hard work. How could he take advantage of his family?
"The reason is the Taipingfang house. Several of the legitimate sons think that grandfather favors you, especially the second and third sons, which makes them very dissatisfied. In fact, grandfather has already said at the clan meeting that that house has nothing to do with him.
But they just don’t believe it. If a person has a prejudice, no matter how he explains it, it’s useless.”
Li Ye curled his lips in disdain, "Is it really out of jealousy?"
Li Xun laughed, "How could they not be jealous? We, sons and grandsons, are used to being discriminated against. Unfairness is commonplace and we don't take it seriously at all. But their legitimate sons are different. They think you are taking advantage of us.
In order to protect their interests, everyone is staring at you like black-eyes. You may not feel it, but the family is like a small market, and any little news will spread throughout the family immediately."
Li Ye snorted coldly, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to them!"
Li Xun pondered for a moment and said: "Others don't care, but you have to worry about Li Xiu. He really hates you, even more than Li Min did before."
"Have I violated his interests?"
Li Xun smiled bitterly and said: "My silly brother! Don't you know what you have done? Li Xiu's eldest son Li Yu is his eldest grandson! He is the successor of his grandfather recognized by the world, but his grandfather told others that his heir is
How can you make the relationship between Li Xiu and his son so embarrassing?"
This is indeed the case. The eldest son and eldest grandson were always the legal heirs of the family in the aristocratic society of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Li Linfu's various inheritances could not reach Li Ye.
Li Ye also recognized this, but the problem was that everything he got was the result of his hard work. His grandfather Li Linfu gave him three thousand guan of money, and he finally returned it to his grandfather.
I say that I am my grandfather's heir. I really don't know where to start?
If strictly speaking, he can only be regarded as the heir to his grandfather's ambition.
Li Ye smiled and said lightly: "I can't explain many things, and I don't want to explain them. Let time prove everything!"
In the morning of the next day, Li Ye first came to the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of War. He had to deal with a few things first, including being promoted to General Ningyuan and registering as the Shaye Soldier and Horse Envoy. These two things were very simple, just fill out a form.
The trouble is that when he resigns as a temporary censor, he needs to go to the censor's desk to issue a certificate. It is not difficult for the Ministry of Personnel. The trouble is at the censor's desk. Two supervisory censors will strictly question him whether he has used his powers as a censor.
If used, how is it used?
It would be simple if it was not used, but Li Ye used it. He served as the supervisor of the army as the censor, and followed the Anxi army to conquer the Kingdom of Chu. The censor station has this record.
Then he has to explain clearly the cause and effect of this incident, and also explain clearly why he left midway and why he did not return to Kucha with the Anxi Army. Strictly speaking, this is a dereliction of duty. As a supervisor, he finally abandoned the army and ran away.
Lost.
But Li Ye didn't want to talk about Lianhuasheng, so he couldn't explain it to the Yushitai. After struggling for a whole hour, the two parties broke up unhappy. The Yushitai refused to seal the certificate. Li Ye's temporary censor
He cannot relinquish his post.
The official who went through the formalities for him smiled and said: "Actually, General Li, there is no need to rush to resign. Your title of censor is personally conferred by the emperor. Many frontier officials have the title of censor, but this kind of censor is not a full-time censor."
History is just a title. There is no term of office, no evaluation, and no appointment or dismissal. In fact, you don’t need to worry about it.”
Li Ye frowned slightly, "But what I have done is recorded at the Yushitai!"
"This. Usually there is a record. If you are disgusted and don't want the Yushitai to know, then don't use it. Then the Yushitai will have no way of knowing."
"You mean, this title of censor will always follow me?"
The official smiled and said: "Because your title was given by the emperor, you can only be removed by the emperor, unless you resign yourself. But if you resign, the censor must strictly review it. If anything happens, they will be held responsible."
.
But if you don't care about it, the Emperor will not spare it, and the Yushitai will not interfere. It will indeed follow you until you retire."
Li Ye nodded, "In that case, I won't care about wasting so much of my time. Thank you! Thank you!"
Li Ye said goodbye and came out of the official department. It was almost noon, and he hurried to Gao Lishi's official room. At this time, Gao Lishi was already waiting for him in the official room.
"Is the matter done?" Gao Lishi asked with a smile.
"Everything else is fine. It's just that the title of censor is too troublesome and I can't quit."
Gao Lishi chuckled and said: "This kind of censor title is unnecessary. It is just a censor in name. Your official position is called 'with the title of censor'. You will be upgraded in the future, and you will be promoted to the title of censor, censor Zhongcheng, and then
He was then promoted to the title of Chief Inspector of the School.
But if you remove the words title and school inspector, then the Yushitai will issue you a Yushi card and a Yushi Zhongcheng order. At that time, you can truly have the authority of the Yushi. Before, you were a supervisor in Anxi, wasn't it?
Because of your imperial censor title, but because you have the emperor's gold medal."
"In that case, why are you still giving me a hard time at the Yushitai today?"
"You asked for it on your own. Who made you stupidly resign? Now that the Yushitai is controlled by Yang Guozhong, it's strange that they don't make things difficult for you!"
"Okay! I'm asking for it." Li Ye said bitterly.
Gao Lishi immediately took Li Ye into the palace city and came to the Chengxiang Hall. "Wait here for a while, I'll go take a look!"
Gao Lishi walked into the hall, while Li Ye waited patiently outside the hall. After a while, a young palace maid came up with a lantern in her hand. She stepped forward and gave Wanfu a greeting: "Is this General Li Ye?"
"I am exactly that!"
"Please come with me."
The little palace maid took Li Ye into the side hall.
The side hall is very empty, surrounded by palace maids and eunuchs, all standing far away from each other. There is a wooden platform in the middle of the side hall, about ten square meters, and a screen is placed in the middle of the wooden platform.
One is divided into two.
There was a thick carpet in front of the screen, and the palace maid smiled and said, "General Li, please sit down!"
Li Ye was sitting cross-legged on the carpet. At this moment, more than a dozen palace maids came quickly, each carrying a plate. In a moment, Li Ye was filled with all kinds of delicacies.
The little palace maid smiled and said: "The empress said that General Li may not have eaten yet, so please feel free to eat some."
Li Ye was a little embarrassed: "My food looks inelegant and cannot be put on the table."
"General Li, don't be restrained, just be as usual."
The little palace maid waved her hand, and the palace maids and eunuchs standing on Li Ye's side all retreated.
When Li Ye saw that there was no one around, he was really hungry. He picked up the chopsticks and bowl and started eating like a storm. The portion was very small. One chopstick per plate was gone. Fortunately, there were many kinds of dishes, more than twenty kinds, all of which were eaten.
After eating it all, I was only sixty percent full and needed another bowl of hot soup.
At this time, he found that there was no spoon in the jade bowl containing the soup. What should he do? Seeing no one around him, he simply picked up the soup bowl and started drinking.
"puff!"
Suddenly there was a chuckle from the opposite side of the screen, and a soft voice held back the laughter and said: "General Li, that is not the soup to drink."
"Cough! Cough!"
Li Ye coughed violently in a series, choking him half to death. The soft voice on the other side said again: "Ah Bao, give General Li a pat on the back!"
The little palace maid came over and saw the half-drunk bowl of soup. She covered her mouth and laughed so hard.
She finally suppressed her laughter and stepped forward to give Li Ye a few slaps on the back. She chuckled and said, "That's the soup for washing hands before meals. Of course you can drink it, but the little general is too funny."
Li Ye's face turned red with embarrassment and he thought to himself, 'How did I know that was hand washing water? Then where is the damn soup?'
At this time, the palace maid brought a bowl of mung bean and lotus seed soup. This is soup. There are only wine and soup in the palace, but there is no vegetable soup or meat soup.
Li Ye laughed to himself and said, "Thank you. This is the first time that I, the general, entered the palace and accidentally drank the handwashing water. It can be said that my name will be remembered forever."
Another soft chuckle came from the opposite side. The person sitting opposite was Concubine Yang. The screen in front of her was called Miao Miao Baiyun Brocade. It was woven with a very special craft. She could see Li Ye opposite, but Li Ye could not see
If you don't see her, of course, you need to have lighting to match. Li Ye is in the light and she is in the dark.
She made this arrangement because she wanted to see what the young man Suzaku could never forget looked like. Yang Yuhuan discovered that the young man opposite him was so tall and straight, but not as strong as a black bear, more like a leopard.
Every muscle seems to contain powerful explosive power, and even the palace guards do not have such a majestic temperament.
There is also the way he eats like a whirlwind, wild but not rude, and the embarrassment of him drinking handwash by mistake, which is actually so interesting.
In fact, Li Ye had the temperament of a later generation man, that kind of confidence, calmness, and a bit of humor that could not be seen in the men of the Tang Dynasty.
This is an image of a man that Yang Yuhuan has never seen before, and it completely fits the image of her dream lover when she was a girl. Her father passed away early, and she has always dreamed of having such a tall and heroic young man to protect her.
Facing such an outstanding young general, Yang Yuhuan felt like a girl again.
