Of course, Liu E would not let go of making money like this, and said with a smile: "Oh? Since cotton can be as useful as you said, then Sinong Temple should be in charge of the world's agricultural affairs and should be planted and taken care of.
Give me an explanation. If it is as you said, you can sell it to the Liao Dynasty to make money. Is this what you thought before?"
Rainbow Fart offered it just right: "The talents of saints are like endless rivers. After hearing this, Ye An fell to the ground and sighed that the wisdom of saints is a gift from God. Mortals..."
Although it was a disgusting compliment, seeing a civil servant like Ye An who was too high-minded to say such words, Liu E felt relieved and laughed and scolded: "Why don't you say you are a jackal?"
That's right! Don't just say flattery here. You have nothing else to say these days?"
Ye An glanced at Lan Jizong very unhappily. This guy was looking up at the deep caisson in the palace, as if he was attracted by the carved beams and paintings in the caisson...
"Reporting to the saint, Ye An really wants to admonish the saint today. Zhang Qi cannot be the privy envoy!"
Lan Jizong, who originally thought that Ye An would remind the saint tactfully, looked down at him in surprise. How could the shrewd "jackal" just now suddenly become a "yelang"?! He was really so arrogant as a saint.
Is it not possible to punish you anymore?! Don’t forget, Ye An is now a lonely and lucky minister of the Song Dynasty, and the only one he can rely on is the Tian family!
As expected, Liu E looked unhappy and said, "What? Do you think the same thing as the civil servants in the court? Do you really think that I am going to take power?!"
Ye An stood up from the brocade stool and shook his head slightly and said: "What the saint said is wrong! On the contrary, Ye An said this because he knew that the saint did not intend to monopolize power and did not have Lu Wu's heart!"
"Hey... you have found another way. Why do you plan to persuade me by trying to make progress while retreating? If you can't come up with a good reason today, I will certainly punish you for the crime of making irresponsible remarks about the government and forming parties for personal gain!"
Ye An rolled his eyelids. This action seemed very provocative to Liu E. For a moment, he felt that his eyes were dazzled, but Lan Jizong on the side shouted in his heart: "Coming! Coming! How daring!"
Yangcheng Yelang appears!"
Before Liu E and Lan Jizong could scold me, Ye An said: "The saint has wronged me. Ye An has always been a person without friends and party! Who in the whole court wants to see me?! Help others."
What good can Xiang do? Ye An is not stupid, and he doesn’t want to be a knife in the hands of others! What’s more, it is used to hurt you, the saint?!"
This is quite reasonable. Liu E nodded slightly. If anyone in the court formed a clique, Ye An would not do it. Everyone thought he was one of their own. How could such a smart person do such a stupid thing?
"In that case, why do you want to advise me not to appoint Zhang Qi as the privy envoy?"
Ye An crossed his hands and saluted: "Sage Qi, everyone thinks that your purpose of appointing Zhang Qi is to gain power and that you have other ideas in your mind, but Ye An knows that you will never do this! In your heart
Some are just the country, the country, and the country, and some are just responsibilities to the late emperor and the officials, supporting the officials until they can be dignified and in their rightful place!"
What he said was impassioned and every word was like a ton of words. While it kept echoing in the hall, it also made Liu E's heart tremble. But she was a person who had experienced strong winds and waves, so she said softly: "If that's the case, why don't you believe me?"
After many years in the palace, Liu E knew a truth too well. A person's quality is not judged by what he says, but by what he does. Although Ye An's words may sound nice, is his behavior any different from the courtiers?
?
Ye An said: "Since the saint doesn't want to take power, why do you need to fight against the courtiers? You are now the person in charge of the country in the Song Dynasty. Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman, you are the most powerful person in the world! Since you don't want to take that step in your heart,
, why bother to have more conflicts with the courtiers? If the saint is angry, he can just vent it elsewhere! If the Gonggun princes in the court see that the saint has been wronged, I am afraid they will be willing to endure their anger...
…”
Cough cough cough......
Liu E was actually amused by Ye An for a moment. She choked with saliva and kept coughing: "You kid, cough cough... you really have a sweet heart with seven orifices! In this case, I will just appoint Zhang
My dear, you have made your husband-in-law suffer a loss again, and you regard me as a thug?! Ahem..."
Ye An giggled and said: "It's true that nothing can be hidden from the saint's discerning eyes. I'm just angry that they are using me. I don't want to get involved in the court, let alone become someone's "means". They want to
If the kid suffers, then the kid will make them look ugly. What the kid is thinking about now is how to handle his errands and how to hand over the pitiful things in his belly to the officials. In addition, if he can make some more
With just a small amount of money, I’ll be satisfied!”
"roll…………"
"Ye An resigns!"
Ye An didn't hesitate to leave. Lan Jizong looked at his back with some confusion. Why was this scene so sudden? He quickly handed the tea brought by the waiter to Liu E and said: "Sage, this guy sells it in the gourd."
What kind of medicine is it?”
Liu E no longer coughed, but the ups and downs of her chest showed the anger and helplessness in her heart: "This guy is determined not to offend both sides. He not only used tricks to get me to appoint Zhang Qi, but also gave him
Under the steps of this palace, the smartest thing is that he has succeeded in persuading me on the surface. In the hearts of the courtiers, he has a little more room for kindness! It is wonderful to have such means at such an age! But it is too much.
Be smarter, this is not good."
Lan Jizong no longer dared to speak. Only now did he understand what Ye An had done through Liu E's words. Thinking about Ye An's age, he couldn't help but start to wonder if he was getting old?
But from Liu E's last words, he could tell that Ye An was probably tossing and turning between the Queen Mother and the courtiers to the extreme, making the saint even more uneasy about him.
Being smart is a good thing, but being too smart is a bad thing!
At least when the saint was in power, he, Ye An, had no way to go up any higher, but Lan Jizong suddenly discovered that maybe this was not a bad thing for Ye An...
"Everyone, please look, this is my Yuqing Zhaoying Palace in the Song Dynasty! Follow me and don't fall behind. This is a royal Taoist temple built by the late emperor. Don't look around!"
Ye An was like a "tour guide" leading the Liao Dynasty envoys around the open area. Anyway, there was nothing except palaces, houses, and gardens.
Even the Liao people didn't find anything good about it, except that the buildings were more exquisite, the place was larger, and the carved beams and painted buildings were more extravagant.
Yan Shu followed Ye An several times to try to find out what he had to say, but was passed by by Ye An, which made the gentleman feel embarrassed and uncomfortable. Not only did he feel uncomfortable, but Ye An himself felt uncomfortable as well.
I am so angry that I have nowhere to vent my anger.
Judging from her last attitude towards Liu E, she was deeply suspicious of her. Although she had achieved her long-planned goal, being suspected by the most powerful woman in the world could be a good thing.
?
Although he didn't intend to take on more responsibilities, a woman's "vindictiveness"... Thinking of this, Ye An felt that he should sleep with one eye open.
I even began to regret that I shouldn't have been so clever in front of Liu E. At this moment, looking at the elegant Yan Shu next to me, I felt like a mouthful of old blood was about to spurt out!
It turns out that you, a seemingly gentle guy, is really the one who cheats people to death without repaying their lives!
How could Ye An give him a good look like this? It would have been a good idea if he didn't pounce on him and give him a "military punch"! If it wasn't for Yan Shu's reputation, he wouldn't have stopped him even if he beat him to death.
Such a bad thing!
But looking at his anxious look, Ye An even felt a little pity for him. This person who had been worrying about the Song Dynasty all his life, if it weren't for him, he doesn't know what Zhao Zhen would have turned into this dynasty.
He whispered beside him: "The saint has changed his mind and appointed Zhang Qi as the Privy Council! Scholar Yan can rest assured."
"Does Marquis Ye really mean what he said?!"
"Did I lie to you to get some candy?!"
"There is no sugar, but Yan Shu has good Xiangyi arrowroot powder at home! This product is a diuretic, relieves stranguria, clears away heat, calms the nerves, and has magical effects when fried and brewed instead of tea."
