Four hundred and thirty-one chapters Li You is very interesting
~《》~ 431 Li You is a very interesting person
It was already dusk, so the emperor would not go ashore tonight, but would stay in the boat. He would not have a palace to rest until he arrived in Gaoyou later.
On the royal boat, Emperor Jinghe, who was still newlywed, summoned the concubine Xian, and eagerly got into the inner cabin to fight for the continuation of the Ming Dynasty.
But I heard my eldest companion, Eunuch Duan, calling from outside: "Your Majesty! I have something to report."
This episode of father-in-law refers to the thirty-year-old eunuch beside the emperor when Li You came to see the emperor in the early morning. He had been serving and accompanying the emperor since he was a child.
Eunuch Duan's full name is Duan Zhi'en, and together with Mai Cheng'en who is beside the Queen Mother, and Wu Guang'en who is beside Guide Chitose, they are called the three most promising Ouchi masters. Coincidentally, they all have the word "en" in their names.
At that time, the late emperor selected eight eunuchs to accompany the prince. Today, six of the eight were killed by Guide Qiantai's staff, and one died of illness. Only Eunuch Duan, the only one, has survived to this day. Looking at it,
It was not easy to finally survive until the emperor took charge.
Emperor Jinghe had no choice but to put on his clothes and go outside. He took the piece of paper handed over by Eunuch Duan, sat on the throne and asked casually: "What's the matter with my eldest companion?"
Eunuch Duan replied: "Li Tanhua wanted to commit suicide by diving into the water, but luckily he was rescued by the sergeant on the boat."
Emperor Jinghe was surprised and said: "Why did Li You, who was so good, commit suicide?"
Eunuch Duan explained: "What I said was confusing, and the emperor misunderstood. The one who threw the water was not Li Tanhua, but Li Tanhua from the Hanlin Academy, editor Li. I heard that Li Hanlin had a conflict with Li Yangzhou, but Li Yangzhou
The emperor also knew about this man, and his tongue was as sharp as a knife. He was so sharp that he was speechless and unable to raise his head. Li Hanlin probably became more and more angry as he thought about it, so he threw himself into the water in anger. Before that, Li You had already
I got off the boat and left, leaving a message to go to Yangzhou and apologize to the emperor again."
"I was originally worried about the confrontation between Li You and Mr. Yuan Ge, but the two of them, Li Tanhua, should have never met. How could there be a conflict?"
Eunuch Duan further explained: "After last year's competition, Li Denggao became Li Tanhua. At the banquet, the girls from the Jiaofang Division made fun of her because of her title. Those lowly girls didn't have a sense of what they said, and they made Li Denggao look arrogant.
If he is half dead, he will fall in love with Li You."
"How did Li You scold Li Denggao? My dear, can you learn from me?" Emperor Jinghe suddenly asked with great interest.
Eunuch Duan lowered his head and remained silent.
The emperor sighed in disappointment, looked down at the piece of paper in his hand, and what he wrote was the quatrain that Li You recited before disembarking - The sky is so majestic and the dust is so powerful, how energetic is the accompanying minister? Don't mind the coldness in your sleeves, I am
Avoid hot people in the world.
"I am a person who avoids heat in the world..." The emperor pondered for a moment. The word "avoiding heat" is the opposite of "hot" and "qiyan". "Is this a scholar pretending to be noble, or is he acting in anger? I issued an edict.
Just chase him back."
"From my slave's point of view, neither of them are true. I'm afraid Li You did it on purpose. Without Li Denggao, he would have tried to have a big quarrel with others. It's just that others are sophisticated and don't compete with Li You. Only Li Denggao's frivolous words are on point.
Li You was pregnant, as if the prey was being chased and beaten fiercely by Li You."
Duan Zhien paused for a moment, and waited for the young prince to think about it before continuing: "The servant guessed that Li You was probably worried that the enemies would surround him, which would be detrimental to him, so he did not want to stay for a long time. There is also a record in the history books that Shen Sheng died inside and Chong Er was outside.
As for An's story, he deliberately sought out such an accident to take the opportunity to escape."
Emperor Jinghe slapped his forehead and said regretfully: "At that time, I forgot that Li You was at odds with others! No wonder he left, no wonder he left."
Today's incident taught the young emperor another lesson. He intended to get closer to Li You, and Li You was also willing to get closer to him. They both had subjective wishes and should have hit it off, but it didn't work out. Harmony in Vanity Fair
The relationship between people has always been so complicated, and many times it is not based on subjective will.
Politics is indeed something that is easy to learn but difficult to master. Anyone who has heard a few "secrets of officialdom" or "the art of controlling people" can think that they have already entered the door and will be unfavorable. But in fact,
Even if everyone has a treasure book, only a few will succeed.
Thinking of Li You and Mr. Yuan Ge, the emperor sighed slightly: "You can't have your cake and eat it too."
Duan Zhien responded: "This is inappropriate. Since the Emperor is the Emperor of Heaven, everything belongs to the Emperor. It's just that there are different preferences. The way to be a king depends on the Emperor himself.
Savor it.”
Emperor Jinghe yawned, "I'm tired, so I'll leave if you have nothing to do."
Eunuch Duan bowed and said: "I have one last word, my servant. As for Li You, he attached himself to Xu Cifu. There was no need to abandon the near and seek the far away. A fifth-grade man is not worth the effort. But although Li You is young, he has a thorough understanding of people's hearts and is clever and clever.
Change, I have never suffered a big loss as an official so far, this can be a test stone. If the emperor has the ability to play with him in the palm of his hand, others will not be able to do it."
Emperor Jinghe's eyes lit up, and he suddenly became competitive. He patted the handrail and said, "That makes sense! Li You is unique and interesting. My eldest companion and I will go over the details."
But he said that Li You got off the boat and watched the mighty fleet go away from the shore. He knew that among the dozens of boats of various types, one must belong to Princess Guide, but he didn't know which one.
At this time, he was still in Baoying County. There were strong soldiers guarding both sides of the river, one every two or three feet. Li You found someone at random to pass the message to the county magistrate, and then waited for the ceremony at the place.
He thought wildly that the word "Qing Jun Side" was often used when reading history books. He didn't feel anything about it before. Today, when he met these people, he felt it firsthand. He really wanted to call Qing Jun Side. Fortunately, Ming Dynasty has some benefits now.
The emperor who has been imprisoned is like a tiger that has lost its claws. It is very difficult to kill ministers.
Li You borrowed horses from Baoying County, worked hard, and rushed from the shore to the front of Yujia. Then he boarded the ship again at Jieshou Post in Gaoyou. He traveled day and night, changing ships every time he passed a stage, and it only took him two days to catch up.
Return to Yangzhou City.
At this time, Mr. Li had been jolting for several days, and his whole body seemed to be falling apart. Sitting at home, he lamented to his staff that being an official was not as hard as idle clouds and wild cranes, and at the same time he sent someone to call the manager of the Salt Merchant Association, Mr. He.
Naturally, He Yunzi knew why Li You had called him there. When he saw Li Taishou, he took the initiative to report: "Don't worry, Taishou, the colorful booths, theater troupes, fireworks, and cloud silk are all ready. The river houses on both sides of the ten miles along the way have been prepared."
Send out the paint and finish painting within two days, everything is ready.”
Li You also pointed out: "When I came back, I looked at the houses on both sides of the river. There were vacant spaces that were very unsightly. We can use bamboo fences to cover them, which is both elegant and cost-effective. When the emperor comes and takes a look, I will definitely take a look.
