When it comes to officials of the state and dynasty talking about matters in public, for the censors and officials, it is a natural and natural job, and they can say whatever they want after hearing about the matters.
But for other officials, there are invisible rules. Like most official rules, these rules do not exist on paper, but they do restrict the actions of officials.
Ordinary officials should not go beyond the three scopes of what they say on the official website. The first is related to their own work, the second is hot topics that are hotly debated by the government and the public, and the third is when the imperial court openly solicits suggestions. If it goes beyond this scope, go to the official website.
If you don't talk about things, you will appear to be unique, and the consequences will be unpredictable.
Of course, there are exceptions to everything. Senior officials and famous ministers are not bound by this rule. Senior officials such as Jiuqing and Ci Lin are naturally qualified to point their fingers at will, otherwise they can only go to the palace to discuss matters without saying a word. In addition, there are some famous people
Although he may not have a high official position, he has a high reputation, and the whole court acquiesced in his right to speak.
As the only recipient of imperial staff achievements in the Jinghe Dynasty so far, Li You is the image spokesperson who speaks out for justice. Naturally, he is one of those who has privileges in speaking and doing things. In other words, this privilege is also what he does in every game.
It was spelled out in a war of words.
That's why he dared to go online and talk about salt matters that had nothing to do with him. Others would not make a fuss about it and think that he was not doing his job properly and was deliberately seeking the limelight.
If anyone is not convinced by this, then please first send a young man from the palace to jail, then accuse the queen mother's brothers of illegal crimes, and finally fight the chief minister of the dynasty until he was helpless and died of vomiting blood, forcing the queen mother to surrender in court.
Tears, in the end you were basically unscathed, then congratulations, you will also become a privileged person.
Aside from gossip, Gao Yuntong learned that Li Youshangshu criticized the salt affairs and immediately left the government office in a hurry, not caring to continue lobbying Luo to participate in politics.
Watching Mr. Gao leave, Master Ren suggested to Luo Shenzheng: "The two of them are not just diverting trouble to the east. To be more precise, both the Salt Transportation Department and Li You have used the strategy of driving away tigers and devouring wolves, and both want to use the governor to go there."
To attack the other party. I really didn’t expect that the two of them would have such a deep hatred. At this time, they are using each other to undermine each other. The consequences will be unpredictable. The proprietor can wait and see what happens and don’t get involved easily. "
Limited to what he has seen and heard, Master Ren really can't figure out why Li You started to have trouble with the Salt Transportation Department so early, and why the Salt Transportation Department is so hostile to Li You. They are both facing such a powerful foreign enemy, and the two sides are still scheming against each other.
For a sigh.
For some reason, Luo Shenzheng felt very uncomfortable. He felt like he was being ignored or ignored. Was he so insignificant?
In vain, he discussed with his master for a long time whether to cooperate with Li You, but Master Li simply ignored him and started to challenge the Salt Transportation Department directly. It was as if the Salt Transportation Department was the one worthy of attention, and he was never considered a problem
It seems like. I just talked with the master for a long time and it was too naive to be sentimental. It was a mistake to have hope for Li You.
Luo Shenzheng was full of resentment and thought again. The Salt Transport Department was not a good person. He was just used as a foil. Ding Yunshi didn't even send a solemn handwriting and directly sent his subordinates to talk to him. It was too disrespectful.
.
While Gao Yuntong was talking, when he heard the news about Li You, he didn't ask for his opinion and just returned in a panic. This also meant that he didn't take him seriously!
Seeing Luo Shenzheng's dark and uncertain face, Master Ren became angry and asked strangely: "What else do you think, Master?"
Luo Shenzheng gritted his teeth and said: "If I still had a glimmer of hope before and thought about joining forces to fight against the outside world, now I have no such idea at all. Look at Yun Si and Li You, can they still be united? What about now?
The choice and initiative rest entirely in Yang Futai's hands! In my opinion, Yangzhou is torn apart, and the governor's entry into Yangzhou is an inevitable and unstoppable trend!"
"The proprietor means..."
"I will not do anything I know I cannot do! When Futai enters Jiangdu, I will go far to meet him. No, I will go to meet him when he reaches Gaoyou. I want to be the first to surrender.
Yang Futai will fight whoever he is willing to fight, and I will act as a pawn to help step in! I don’t believe there is anyone in Yangzhou who can stop him!"
Complaining that others are not united, didn't you also make calculations before... Master Ren was dumbfounded by the owner's drastic change, but since the owner had already made up his mind, he couldn't say anything else.
Gao Yuntong returned to the Yunsi Yamen Office, and Ding Yunshi showed him the memorial to Li You forwarded by the court. He looked through it and found that there were indeed 108 of them, but they were all trivial and trivial matters.
They are made up of numbers, and some even have one piece broken into several pieces.
For example, reweighing and packaging during the transshipment of Yizhen resulted in increased losses, the salt transported by merchants seriously contained illegal salt, kitchen households were exploited by merchants, and the supervision of cleaning and sprinkling of salt at transshipment ports was not strict, etc.
All in all, Li You's memorial did not expose any earth-shattering maladministration, nor did it point the finger at the senior officials of the Salt Transportation Department, but it listed more than a hundred items, which were dense enough to look shocking.
Seeing Bi Gao Yun Tong exclaimed: "Where did Li You collect so much?"
Ding Yunshi wondered: "Could it be that Jin Wanwan told him?"
Gao Yuntong shook his head and said: "If Jin Baiwan meant what he said, it's more than that. These are more like pieces of hearsay. Jin Baiwan should know the pros and cons, and his own wealth and life are also involved."
"In any case, this Li You must be a thoughtful person. He has probably been collecting these since he arrived in Yangzhou. Most people may know a few things, but it takes a lot of effort to cover everything. At that time, Li You didn't know about the governor's relocation.
What is You Fei thinking about? It shows that he really has ulterior motives."
Not to mention the discussions in the government office and the Salt Transportation Department, Li You, known as the Little Governor, was on the Shugang in the northwest of Yangzhou City. It was the early spring in early February, and it was suddenly warm and cold, and the branches on the Shugang were sprouting new green and containing buds.
To be released.
At this time, among the five pantheons ordered by Lord Li to be built, the first two were recently completed, namely those of Su Dongpo and Li Yong.
Among them, Dongpo Temple, which is most important to Li You, was built in the ruins of Gulintang in Shugang. Today there is a small ceremony. Of course, this ceremony will not be like firecrackers blasting and gongs and drums noisy, but it is not deserted either.
For a time, drums, harps and shengs were played on the Shugang, and elegant people gathered.
In fact, the literati who came to join in the fun may have taken the opportunity to visit the sights in early spring and have a few drinks and meals served by the young prefect.
In the temple, Mr. Li burned the first few sticks of incense to the senior Su whom he had recognized in his heart, and he was very respectful. Then he visited the scenery with a group of famous people, all of whom he planned to invite to write various inscriptions for the palace.
As for the couplets on the plaque, I just took the opportunity to finalize the matter today.
The group of talented people walked around the temple and visited Gulin Hall and the Daming Temple next to it.
Mr. Hu, the staff responsible for supervising the construction of the Dongpo Temple, said: "I remember that at the end of last year, I heard that there was a ruined monument in the Shangfang Temple in Shugang. The old man at the foot of the mountain said that it was built by a layman from Dongpo six hundred years ago.
stand."
When Li You heard this, he looked around and said, "It's a coincidence that I want to visit you today. Would you like to go with me?"
"This is an elegant thing, let's go together together!"
Everyone walked and drove to Shangfang Temple to look for the ruins. This Shangfang Temple, also known as Zhuxi Temple, was rebuilt from the palace of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. Now when they arrived at the site, what they saw were broken walls and ruins, and the roofs and beams were in ruins.
, the birds startled, and the grass and trees grew thick.
Mr. Li sighed with emotion: "Thousand-year-old monuments and human resources have been changing, but they are so abandoned."
After some pointers, I saw a remnant monument among the rubble under the wall of the east corridor. It was just a cobweb of dust, eroded and scattered, and it looked extremely dilapidated.
The accompanying servant came forward and wiped it vigorously, revealing several inscriptions, and then asked Li You to look at it.
After taking a closer look at the remaining words, Mr. Li exclaimed in surprise: "Hey! It's clearly a poem sent by You Shugang to Li Xiaobo as an envoy to Lingbiao. I think it's an authentic work by Dongpo!"
Two of them, who were good at calligraphy and inscriptions, also came forward to check it out, and they both said: "It is indeed the relics of Dongpo!"
Someone laughed and said: "Under God's will, today the Dongpo Temple is completed, and the inscriptions of Dongpo laymen six hundred years ago have been reappeared in front of people. It is really a beautiful story."
Li You told Master Hu: "Then you must be careful when transporting this stele to the center of the temple and under the wall, repairing it and making it intact for viewing."
Someone else shouted: "Master Li is a destined person, why not record it with a poem!"
Li You pointed at the inscription and said with a smile: "The great work of the past sages is here, I dare not show my embarrassment."
"What happened today is indeed fate, and it should be recorded in poetry. Mr. Li is a famous man in the world. If you don't dare to do it, who can do it?"
Li You declined for a while and then said: "I will use my humble work to pay tribute to the layman Dongpo."
Then I listened to him slowly reciting a long poem: "In the past, when I left the Shugang Road, the yellow leaves sang and the autumn cicadas sang. Now when I come to Shangfang Temple, the green calyx breaks through the spring smoke. I step on the side of the treasure belt and overlook the top of the Sui City. The dragon in the ancient temple
The elephant is silent, and the remnant spiders hang in the bushes. I remember the people of Emei, whose literary talents are truly immortal. I gave poems to the Japanese envoys, and all the guests and assistants were virtuous. Miao Ran competed with the ancients, and he rinsed the ink and left the spring spring. The old pen was about to fly, and it was wonderful.
Bianjuan. People are talking in the empty hall, and pigeons are flying in the air. It is the same to pay homage to the past and present of the future."
Everyone exclaimed: "What a wonderful literary talent. It makes me yearn for the ancient times."
Someone in the crowd shouted: "Master Hu! Not only do you need to move the inscription of Layman Dongpo, but you also need to engrave Master Li's poem as an inscription and put it on display in the temple."
Another person praised: "Six hundred years of time have echoed back and forth, and the two works are perfectly matched. It is really wonderful that there is cause and effect. The viewer can reflect on the past and the present, and can savor it carefully."
Master Hu responded: "Of course it has to be like this."
Li You smiled and said nothing, constantly imagining the scene where two inscriptions on himself and Su Dongpo were placed side by side in a famous place, being admired by literati and poets. Master Hu really did a good job in this matter...
Suddenly, a yamen servant hurried up to him and whispered to him: "Today I have reported that the governor's yamen, including Yang Futai, set off from Huai'an Mansion yesterday."
