The winning ticket among the votes fell back into Li You's hands in a reasonable and legal manner. This was a result that no one expected, including Grand Scholar Yang who recommended Li You and Li You himself.
In fact, Mr. Yang Ge's recommendation of Li You today was a generous and unintentional move. However, he thought that Li You could be used and it was just to appease him. Unexpectedly, it became an opportunity for Li You to make a big comeback.
Li You's original intention was just to cause trouble...
After this baptism, this book is no longer the other book, and the meaning inside is very profound.
First of all, Li You got the official position this time through a recommendation that fully complied with the procedures, which is enough to make anyone blameless. There is nothing better than this in the officialdom of the country, and he can overwhelm any official of the same level in terms of dignity and etiquette.
Secondly, being a court official along with the ministers, governors, governors, and other high-ranking officials also invisibly raises the status of the post of branch secretary. At least in the minds of the officialdom, it must no longer be regarded as a cabinet official. Although
In terms of rank, it is not as noble as Ci Linguan, but it is almost comparable to the level of subordinate Kedao.
If in the past everyone called Li Zhongshu instead of Li Sheren, it was a joking nickname because Mr. Li jumped up and down in the inner court and fought with Mr. Ge, and it was a bit of a joke, then from now on it can be regarded as a formal title.
The only criticism is that Li You only received nine recommendations, which were not very valuable. But history is written by the victors, and the recommendations that are not valuable enough are also recommendations. All procedures were followed in accordance with the regulations, and there were no violations.
However, the Queen Mother did not speak out about re-election. If anyone else wants to deny the result, it would be equivalent to overthrowing the nomination system, which carries great political risks.
With this halo, Mr. Li immediately changed from a restless pawn to an incarnation of loyalty, uprightness, and fearlessness of the powerful. It must be said that the reputation of Ming Dynasty officialdom is so strange. It often depends on the person and the situation.
.
The overall situation has been decided. Li You, who once again took office as the centrist, has come to His Majesty for an unknown number of times today. Before that, he either expressed gratitude, apologized, made a petition, impeached, or remonstrated. Anyway,
Most people are tired of him.
But it turns out that Mr. Li, who has been bombarded by the high-density and overloaded media of the 21st century, has been tempered by the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty in the past two years, and his performing arts have truly transcended this era, breaking through the horizons of the Ming Dynasty and setting new standards again.
The imagination of the bureaucrats in the palace is beyond the limit.
I saw that he was not happy when he was supposed to have a happy face. Instead, he said a poem with a depressed tone: "I am weak and have a heavy responsibility, and it will be difficult to bear it for a long time. I am tired of slandering me when I return to the East Pavilion. I only care about the life and death of the country. How can I avoid it because of misfortunes and blessings?"
I can’t remember what the next few sentences are. It’s enough to just plagiarize and modify the first four sentences, Li Zhongshu thought.
If you want to benefit the country, how can you avoid it because of misfortunes and blessings? Everyone in the audience was speechless. They just asked you to continue to write a letter to split the votes. It seemed like you were asked to go to the three war-torn towns in Guangxi and work for the country.
But there are still many people lamenting, why am I still moved even though I know he is lying? Maybe it’s because the poem was read so well...
The Empress Dowager Cisheng couldn't help but praise: "The last two sentences are very outstanding" and said to the left and right: "Cut these two sentences and make couplets and hang them on the pillars on the side of the throne."
In fact, hanging in this place, she herself is invisible on the throne, and people's field of vision is not that wide. But as long as the ministers below raise their heads, they can receive the patriotic education of this couplet at all times...
Ending with Li Zhongshu's colorful poems, today's discussion comes to an end, and everyone goes back to each government office to have their own meal.
God is unfair, why does luck happen to others but not to him? Wang Qinian stood there blankly, motionless for a long time. One moment he had climbed to the peak of life, and the next moment he fell into the abyss. The contrast was very unreal.
I can't wake up from the dream.
Everyone stayed away from Wang Qinian. Even those who had to pass by him when leaving the palace deliberately went around. Everyone knew that this person was done playing.
There is no precedent for enduring humiliation and making a comeback, but Mr. Wang's opponent, a middle school secretary, is too powerful... Anyway, everyone is not optimistic about Mr. Wang.
The crowd in the hall dispersed, and the cold wind blew in outside the door. The lonely Wang Qinian had a cold war and regained his clarity of mind. He remembered that he still had one last life-saving straw...
There are a number of duty rooms outside the Donghua Gate of the Forbidden City for various purposes. For example, Princess Guide goes to the palace every day to do business. Her large honor guard cannot follow her into the palace, so she can wait in the duty room outside the Donghua Gate.
Wang Qinian completely lowered his stature. He walked out of the palace and walked around to the Donghua Gate. After finding the honor guard of Guide Chitose, he mixed with these servants without hesitation and waited for His Highness to leave the palace.
The only one who can save him now is Princess Guide, who has deserted Peng Ge and defected to him.
As the sun set in the west and it was almost evening, when he saw the princess's luan coming out of the Donghua Gate, Wang Qinian rushed to Fengyu in a few steps, threw himself on the ground and shouted: "Wang Qinian asks to see your highness."
Several scoldings came from Feng Yu: "Get out of here, you waste!" without any mercy.
Wang Qinian didn't know that the eldest princess had great expectations for today's Wuying Hall meeting, and tried to secure the position of secretary of the ticket and Li You together. However, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
When she learned that Li You had not only not been restrained, but had instead been promoted to the rank of Sixth Rank Ting Tui-sentee, and that he had also conveniently deposed Wang Qinian, whom she had finally conquered and planned to reuse, she suddenly felt unexplained and inexplicable.
His chest was filled with anger. Today he went into a rage in Zhaofeng Palace, threw five or six pieces of porcelain, and beat seven or eight palace maids.
Wang Qinian, the unlucky guy who did not do his job well, was also unreasonably angered by His Highness Chitose...
After being scolded, Mr. Wang was dumbfounded again. The eldest princess has always been known as a majestic and virtuous person, and she should not be a reckless and brainless person. How can she treat him like this, a person who has pledged her loyalty? Isn't she afraid of chilling the hearts of other subjects?
This winter is really sad.
But it is said that after "Wuying Palace" was released on November 23, it became popular in the capital in an instant because of its textbook-like scheming and twists and turns of the bizarre plot.
Mr. Li, who is almost the only winner and has won several awards, is showing signs of becoming a legend. This is indeed the pinnacle classic of his official career, and it seems to be unsurpassable at present.
At that time, every move, every move, every word, every word of Li You in the palace was carefully studied and scrutinized, and efforts were made to deconstruct it. The more others studied it, the more they felt that although Li Zhongshu was young, he had an unpredictable mind.
, it is chilling. From his first step into the palace to his last step out of the palace, everything seems to contain infinite meaning.
The next day, Mr. Zhu Fanghe, a member of the Ministry of Rites, invited Li You to drink, and brought with him the learning experience of the Ministry of Rites. "All the gentlemen in our department unanimously agreed that Li You, you are too scheming. That Wang Censor is indeed a villain, and he has been harmed by you."
Damn, I worked so hard to make you a wedding dress, and I still give you a ting tui for free."
Regarding this view, Li You was helpless, "In the end, it was just a coincidence. It was God's will. How could I have the ability to manipulate the public to turn everything upside down?"
"Are you saying this to fool outsiders? You have been arranging it from the moment you apologized and resigned. No, you have been arranging it from the moment you entered Wuying Hall. If you can't cover up the truth, you might as well just resort to it."
"What's the plan? Why don't I know?" Li You was very puzzled.
"Don't pretend to be crazy, I've understood your thoughts. For example, when you resigned from your position as secretary of the ticket sub-committee, you kept saying that there was no fixed method for this matter, but you were forced to start a business and have the courage to do things. This is embarrassing.
You felt sympathy, so only nine people later recommended you out of pity."
Li You smiled bitterly. Isn't it common sense to pretend to be pitiful to gain sympathy at times like this? Where do these many inexplicable and profound meanings come from.
"Also if you resign, you still take the initiative to advise the Holy Mother and earnestly want to choose a successor immediately. This is also a trap. At that time, there are many princes in the palace. If you want to choose a successor in a short time, the best way is to use the court.
Tui, even if the Holy Mother does not issue an edict to Tui, you must have other ways to persuade her."
Li You shook his head and said, in fact, at that time I just planned to follow the strategy of killing three people with two peaches. First, I would throw out the bait while there were many people, try to arouse competition from all parties, and then see if there was any opportunity to fish in troubled waters. Tingtui and other things, I never thought of it.
.
"Since then, you have kept a low profile and been promoted by the irrelevant Mr. Yang Ge, so that everyone only thought it was to appease and lost their vigilance. You must have known the inside story of Wang Yushi's operation of the ticket splitting book, so you lured the snake out of the hole, and at the same time, first used
Wang Censor squeezed out everyone else."
Li You’s comment on this is: Before I learned that nine people recommended me, I was very calm. After I learned that nine people recommended me, second only to Wang Qinian, I became less calm...
"Then you hid your murderous intention, and the oriole was behind you. When you knocked down Wang Yushi in one fell swoop, and the inconspicuous and useless second escort happened to be you, everything from then on became a matter of course."
That was the simple conclusion in Li You's mind that Wang Qinian deserved his bad fate.
Mr. Zhu Fanghe finished analyzing Li You's brilliant calculations, ideas, and mentality in Wuying Palace in one breath, and then asked: "That's all, what else do you have to say?"
Li You looked up to the sky and sighed, "It is only in the Spring and Autumn Period that I know I have sinned."
"It seems that you have made progress in your reading of scriptures recently." Zhu Fanghe expressed his heartfelt appreciation, and then remembered something: "Today I heard that Mr. Peng Ge personally kidnapped his four sons and sent them to the Ministry of Punishment to be imprisoned."
Li You sneered: "I had expected that he would be like this, and he probably gave the Queen Mother an apology."
After bidding farewell to Zhu Fanghe, Li You returned to his residence, only to see Xiaozhu waiting in the front yard.
"The master has just arrived with a group of people and sent two female fairies. Now we are waiting for the master to arrange them in the hall," Xiaozhu reported.
Li You asked strangely: "Where did it come from?"
"It said it came from the palace and was given to me by some thousand-year-old order."
Sigh...Li You knew that this was another trick played by Princess Guide. Yesterday, he resigned from the rewards of two palace maids in Wuying Palace in exchange for a sixth-grade Shangbao Sicheng. This is impossible for His Highness Qiantose
I don’t know, but I obviously pretended to be confused by sending it here.
Touching is absolutely forbidden, otherwise it will be a current crime of bullying the emperor.
