After figuring out how to proceed, Li You felt a little relieved. What he encountered this time involved a power struggle within the palace, and six supervisors died. Compared with the so-called problems he had encountered before, there was a fundamental difference. Although
He didn't know how far this fight had progressed. Was it a foreplay stage or already naked? But one thing was certain, he had to walk on thin ice as if he were facing an abyss.
Since the person with ill intentions drove him to seek help from Shangshu Xu, common sense suggests that he must have been prepared for this. Maybe as soon as he entered the Ministry of Officials or the Xu Mansion, various rumors started to fill the capital.
Therefore, Xu Shangshu couldn't see it, so he could only go to Zhao Xianchang of the Metropolitan Procuratorate or Lu Shangshu of the Ministry of War for protection. Between the two, it was more convenient for Zuodu Censor to act.
Having set his goal, Li You still followed his original itinerary and headed west from the Ministry of Rites to the Metropolitan Procuratorate in the west of the city.
Among the core of the imperial court, the cabinet, Zhongshu, Liuke and other imperial institutions were located inside the Meridian Gate and outside the Fengtian Gate in the Forbidden City, while the important external government offices such as the Ministry of Education and the Governor's Office were mostly located at Chengtian Gate in the south outside the Forbidden City.
Between it and the Daming Gate (i.e. *** Square and its surroundings), only the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple's three law departments are special and are placed farther to the west, not in the Imperial City area.
On the way, Li You suddenly found that he was still flustered and reckless, resulting in some incomplete thinking and almost forgetting the most critical and important points.
Among the three big men who can meet, what is the stance of Xu Shangshu? What is the stance of Lu Shangshu? What is the stance of Zhao Xianchang? Between the emperor and the queen mother, are they neutral or leaning towards one side?
If you don't understand this issue clearly and rush to the door, you may die without knowing how. If they are not in the same group, you should be more cautious to avoid any performance art.
So Mr. Li hesitated again and thought about it carefully for a long time, but he also figured out some truth.
Zhao Xianchang is from Wu County, Suzhou Prefecture, Lu Shangshu is from Xujiang Prefecture, Suzhou Prefecture, and the Queen Mother is also from Suzhou Prefecture. In an era when regional concepts are very important, at the level of the second rank, which is infinitely close to the pinnacle of civil servants in the country, it is really like this
Coincidence?
Another person came to mind, that is, his old Shangguan Master Chen. Xu Shangshu sent Master Chen, whom he regarded as his nephew, to go abroad. There was no place in the world that he could not go to, but he wanted to go to Suzhou Prefecture? This is not necessarily a coincidence.
There is also Qian Huangshang, a member of the Queen Mother's clan...one can be a coincidence and two can be a coincidence, but it is impossible for three or four to still be coincidences.
If it is not a coincidence, then there is only one truth. These three in the court have their own characteristics. They may have the qualifications of the elders of the three dynasties, or they may have the clear vision of leader Fengxian, or they may be the most powerful in the world and can even compete with the elders.
The character, 80% of his comrades, at least not his enemies, are probably on the side of the Queen Mother.
If Li You had the qualifications to choose a side, he would still prefer the emperor in his heart. After all, the future belongs to the emperor, and if he endures several years of suppression, he will eventually get ahead. What's more, according to the tradition of the country, there has never been a queen mother who can have exclusive power in the previous dynasties.
But at this point, does he have the qualifications to choose a side? He is also from Suzhou! He was promoted by Xu Shangshu and recommended to prison! He gave Lu Shangshu a gift of "Who can save the Yangtze River and release the sky"
According to the words, he is the nanny brother-in-law of the third son of the Lu family! He has been deeply involved in the Zhao family's housework and helped the second master to find incense for future generations.
Therefore, he must follow the thighs on the platform without any principles or morals, otherwise all his foundations will collapse instantly. The thighs will be very angry, and the consequences will be serious.
Mr. Li smiled helplessly, interpersonal relationships are so wonderful. I didn't want to do anything deliberately, but the people I made friends with were all connected, and unknowingly they became the most peripheral of this circle.
However, he himself has always been ignorant and unaware of this, and has not even thought about it. He only thinks that he is lucky and smart, so he can have both sides, and can get through the joints of so many important people at the same time.
Sometimes I am naive and complacent, thinking that it is a good thing to some extent that I do not have a family background. After all, it is easy to draw on a blank piece of paper, and I can choose a reliable background and path with my own wit. It will not be because of someone who is born fixed.
People with backgrounds such as teachers or family members are implicated if they are unlucky (Fang Xiaoru’s ten clans are very innocent).
But the humorous reality told him that small people will never have the right to choose in big situations. It can only be said that Li You's vision and limitations of being born in a small household in his two lives are clearly visible.
If Qiu Chuji had not passed by Niujia Village...if Li Yamen had not gone to curry favor with Chen Zhixian...perhaps Li You had already doomed this fate from the moment he deliberately currying favor with Chen Zhixian. Although Li Xiaodi's ambition at that time was just to avoid being in trouble with the county magistrate, there were
A secure public job.
Fate acridine, Mr. Li once again realized more deeply the meaning of these eight big words that are often said to death, "people can't help themselves in the world of rivers and lakes".
When I read history books, I always laugh at those idiots who don’t know the time and have no vision. Now it seems that it’s because I stand on the outside and talk without pain. How many of the people who can leave their names in history are idiots? Maybe they know this.
, I have to do it for you.
The capital dungeon is difficult to clear... Mr. Li's mind wandered and he thought more and more, and before he knew it, he was sweating again and again in the late autumn of September. It was really difficult to clear, he only encountered such a bad thing, he didn't grasp anything, he just thought about it in his mind
Just two chapters of brain cells were used up! If it were to do something bigger, it would be like killing someone.
At this point, Li You made up his mind and quickly dealt with the matter at hand in a low-key manner. Then he went to jail in a low-key manner, dropped out of school in a low-key manner, and was released in a low-key manner... He went to a place far away from Empress Dowager Gao that day and acted like a domineering figure.
, a low-key and happy magistrate who cheers from front to back. High-profile officials are deadly, and those six stupid supervisors are Yin Jian.
By the way, it's better to find a way to return to Suzhou. The imperial court had a preferential policy at the time. Officials who were transferred to miscellaneous positions after inspection were not required to abide by the rule of "not being an official within 500 miles of their own province or hometown."
Li You, who was daydreaming, forgot again that small people have no choice in big situations...
In fact, having said that, although Li You is flexible and flexible in situations, he often deals with it passively. Fundamentally, he is still a conservative, cautious, prone to complacency, not aggressive, and does not dare to take risks. Being able to reach the seventh rank is also a rare experience.
What happened forced him out (who made him the protagonist).
If his father were in this situation, he might bite his teeth first, then bite his fingers, and write a letter in blood. It doesn't matter who the content supports, it's just a matter of luck anyway. Then he would carry two letters in blood and rush to Chengtianmen to kill him.
At the right gate of Chang'an on the outer west side, beat the Dengwen drum set up there.
Fighting to be exiled and exiled to the army, he directly made things happen to the maximum extent, to the ninth level, in order to gain a future, which is exactly what the saying that wealth is obtained in danger. But Li You's style of doing things is not like this.
The calculation was settled, Mr. Li's sedan set sail again, and the journey was smooth and went straight to the gate of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
