Chapter 268: People who are cruel to themselves
Guide Chitose's thoughts are very wild. If anyone else had said this, Li You would have thought she was talking in her sleep.
Although he was already sitting inside, Li Zhongshu still felt that it was an unreal hallucination when he recalled the conversation. However, from a purely appreciative perspective, hearing such a large-scale wealth plan, and then imagining the Big Mac
The formation of the monopoly complex originated from his Salt Law Memorial, which made him feel a little excited. But...
"There is no future for such things as divine shareholders." Shang Bao Sicheng, thirty-one words are omitted below. Mr. Li immediately suppressed this inexplicable excitement.
Li You cannot say whether Princess Guide can succeed. He can only say that based on her various unique conditions, she has the possibility of success. As for whether the consequences are good or bad, historical progress or historical reversal, how long can it last?
, Mr. Li can't see it at all.
In the evening, he left the palace and returned to his apartment. When he arrived at Caosheng Alley, Master Li got off the sedan chair and sent the bearer away.
Today's eldest follower, Han Zong, frowned and looked around, "Sir, I feel like I have a murderous aura."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mr. Li scolded. There may have been fights in the officialdom of the capital in this dynasty, and the tragic result was just retiring from old age and returning home, but I have never heard of anyone risking their lives, let alone assassination, which destroys the main theme.
Violating things, this is not a mindless movie.
At this time, a figure suddenly appeared from behind the big tree at the entrance of the alley and stopped in front of Li You.
"Why is it you?" Li You was very surprised when he saw it clearly. This person was actually Wang Qinian, the former imperial censor, but he didn't know why this enemy stopped him. He quickly compared his own strength with Wang Qinian's in his mind to judge the personal danger.
It was basically zero, so he waved his hand and sent Han Zong away a little distance.
Wang Qinian slowly raised his hands in salute, his voice a little hoarse, "I heard from Guide Qiantose that you strongly opposed my appointment, so she was also in a difficult situation. I came here specially to pay a visit, and I hope Mr. Li will show your respect."
Li You's mind was not on Wang Qinian's issue, and he secretly thought about how the eldest princess mentioned him in front of Wang Qinian? Wouldn't there be some flaw that Wang Qinian could see? So he asked with some worry: "Who does Guide Qiantai use with me?"
What's the point of being an official? You came to me to find the wrong person."
"Chitose said that you were the first to come up with the salt method, and I will use your paintings in the future, so I don't want to offend you. So I had to find a way to convince you first."
Li You was slightly relieved and said jokingly: "How do you want to convince me? I have very hard ears." Now you should take the initiative to let Miss Cheng out. This is all you can do.
The conditions are met, Mr. Li thought.
Wang Qinian's face was very ugly, and he tightened his thin face. Suddenly he turned his wrist and pulled out a bright and shiny cow-ear sharp knife from his sleeve, which shone in the sunset.
Han Zong's crow-like mouth made Mr. Li take a few steps back in surprise, "Wang Qinian, how dare you break the rules of the game? It seems that you don't want to be unlucky in the civil service circle at all."
Although he, Li You, had served as a cross-border yamen officer and was not afraid of this small scene, and he also had an advantage in body. It was easy to kill the scholar Wang Qinian in a single fight, but it was a bit tricky to escape unscathed.
If the news about Mr. Li's bloody battle on Long Street is spread to the capital, it would be a huge disgrace and would be a joke.
Wang Qinian did not take action and allowed Li You to retreat. When Han Zongfei came over, Wang Qinian raised his sharp knife and shouted, "Don't misunderstand me!"
Li You asked strangely: "What else do you have to say?"
Wang Qinian stretched out his left hand, gently caressed the blade of the sharp knife in his hand, and talked about a trivial matter. "I just want to tell Master Li. I don't even want an official position anymore, and when there is no other way out, I have to use this blade to castrate myself."
Palace, I will serve Chitose wholeheartedly."
Han Zong rolled his eyes. Is self-harm a threat? He began to suspect that Wang Qinian was crazy. He wanted to joke with the master, but he saw that the master looked serious and nervous, as if he was really frightened by Wang Qinian.
"I'm telling the truth. There's absolutely no lies." Wang Qinian stopped moving and stood there quietly. He believed that the other party would understand.
"You won." Li You said with a helpless smile. What was he afraid of?
Knowledge changes destiny. This sentence is perfect for the eunuchs in the inner palace. Don’t think that all eunuchs are stupid, incompetent and uneducated. Except for a few of the great eunuchs who were in power during the three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, such as Jiu Qiansui.
Weird, who has not received Hanlin-level education in the inner study hall? Once a young eunuch enters the inner study hall, he is like a scholar who has won a Jinshi. After studying in the inner study hall and entering the clerk's room of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, he is likened to a Jinshi.
After entering the Imperial Academy, he was known as Neihan.
But since the inner study hall was closed for various reasons decades ago, it has never been opened again. Most of the eunuchs who had a higher level of education back then are now old and waiting to die with only the palm prints of various inner government offices.
The generation of eunuchs was in decline, not many were literate, and those who were knowledgeable were rare. Therefore, they were in a situation of people being cut off. This was also one of the reasons why the power of the eunuchs in the front and back palaces of the Jinghe Dynasty declined overall but could not be revived.
If an experienced, scheming, ambitious and non-pedantic senior compound person like Wang Qinian turns his career to become a father-in-law, he would be an outstanding presence in the Jinghe court. With the support and use of the eldest princess Qiantose,
What will your career prospects be like if you win Tian's trust again?
Anyway, it is what Mr. Li does not want to see and is deeply afraid of. Who wants to have such an enemy who was driven to eunuch by himself standing next to the imperial power in the palace?
He dared to be cruel to himself. He was really cruel. Li You shrank. He had never been so completely convinced by others and gave in with respect like today. "Brother Wang, why are you doing this? I am by no means an unreasonable person. After all, I am also a former colleague.
As a minister, how can I be so narrow-minded that I won’t give in to you? Come on, I’ll treat you to a drink.”
Invite me to drink? Wang Qinian thought of something and sighed: "If I had known that you were close to His Highness Chitose, I wouldn't have been so stupid as to seek desperation, but it was so hard to hide it. As for Cheng Xiaoniang, I will not marry her.
Oh, so as not to have another grudge."
I like people who are both sensible and sincere. Li You was overjoyed and immediately thought of a way to get Miss Cheng back. "I am willing to reconcile with you, but you must not mention the scandal of intending to castrate yourself to Chitose.
"
"Why?"
Li You said sincerely: "Gui De has been thirsty for thousands of years, and has a strong nature. If you mention that you have had the idea of castrating yourself, based on my understanding of her, she will definitely forcefully castrate you and take you to the palace.
.There was such an old incident in the Xuande Dynasty, and Yin Jian was there. Just tell Qiantose that I will agree to reconcile with you as soon as I hear that she is in trouble, and don't mention anything else."
Wang Qinian realized that Chitose was a strong person, and being strong also meant being generous and unwilling to owe favors. Li You very cleverly and implicitly went to Chitose to ask for benefits.
He threw down the sharp knife, turned around and walked away, murmuring: "He Sheng Yu... He Sheng Liang. He Sheng Yu... He Sheng Liang"
Han Zong picked it up and commented: "This knife is good. From now on, I will hide it to protect the master."
The next day was December 19. After the morning court, the Queen Mother convened the ministers Wuying Hall for a meeting. This was probably the last meeting before the Holy Emperor this year, and it was considered the end of the year.
In three days' time, there will be the Winter Solstice Festival, when hundreds of officials will enter the Emperor's Hall to congratulate each other. Then all offices in the capital will begin to seal off their offices one after another, and the officials will enjoy a rare holiday in the year until New Year's Day.
Today is the year-end meeting after all, and the symbolic sky has also arrived, sitting next to the Empress Dowager Cisheng.
Government affairs were discussed one by one in order, and the affairs of the Di newspaper were also listed among them, but important matters could only be discussed later.
When the matter of Di Bao was brought up in the palace, many people got excited and prepared to watch the show. Everyone knows that Li Zhongshu is good at talking and can stir up trouble whether it is reasonable or not. He will stir up a hornet's nest with anyone who commits a crime.
Similarly, looking at the imperial court, it seems that there are not many opponents.
I don’t know what kind of scolding he is going to do this time. It’s really exciting. Maybe Mr. Li can stage another big comeback.
Li You walked out of the procession smoothly with the memorial in hand, and his loud voice echoed in the hall:
"...Unexpectedly, it caused consternation at home and abroad. There was a misinformation that blocked the way of speech, which was not the original intention. Fortunately, Taiyuan rectified it, but I was very frightened and ashamed of God's grace. If there were mistakes, I would correct them, and if there were biases, I would correct them..."
"The sages said that writings are used to convey the truth, but how can they survive? I believe that one is to educate people's hearts, and the other is to clarify things."
"The memorial is requested to transform the residence report into two. The first type is to send copies to the world, ordering the prefecture and county offices to post them outside every day for the people to see, and to send copies to the country, prefectures, counties, schools, and schools.
The heart of a scholar. The second type is for the bureaucracies in the capital to copy, in order to broaden the way of speech and avoid the worry of blocking the path of speech. If the two go hand in hand, you can get the best of both worlds."
Many ministers looked at Mr. Li talking eloquently, and felt unable to adapt and felt disappointed for a while.
Is this Mr. Li who admits his mistakes frankly, is courteous, and discusses the matter the same as Mr. Li? Once upon a time, Mr. Li, who was full of swords, guns, swords, halberds and eighteen kinds of weapons, could also discuss politics in chapters and articles?
A person who doesn't follow the rules and makes trouble is lost in the crowd, and there is a lot less fun in the boring temple, someone said with emotion.
Maybe they sighed too early, and only listened to Li You continue to speak: "There are two kinds of dibao, and there are two names. The one who specializes in teaching can be called Jieben, and the one who specializes in affairs such as sending it to the censor for reading can be called enough.
Book…"
Clean version? Full version? Probably Mr. Li couldn't think of another name.
The whole hall was filled with people who had read poetry and books and claimed to read everything. When they suddenly heard these two meaningful names, some smiled knowingly, some couldn't help but laugh, some were thoughtful, and some
The expressions are **, some are indifferent...
Young man looked at Zhu Qing with an ios expression, what's going on?
Jinghe's meeting with the emperor seven years later ended in a light comedy...
