I still have to go to this banquet, and I have to give face to my two friends. Moreover, one of these two people is the head of the Literary Selection Department, one of the top five officials in the world, and the other is a highly respected member of the royal family and a close confidant of the emperor.
¡°If you can hire the two of them to be lobbyists, your status won¡¯t be too low. Li You secretly guessed that there were probably only a few in the cabinet.
The weather was getting warmer at the turn of mid-to-late March, so Li You walked to the carriage and arrived at the Jinxiu Building on Qipan Street at the beginning of the lanterns according to the time posted on the post. Now that he has been here more often, the waiters in the store here recognize him and lead him directly to a certain window-facing room on the second floor.
Zuo Bangrui and Zhu Fanghe were already waiting inside, drinking tea and chatting. Li You quickly raised his hand to salute and said, "I'm sorry to have bothered you two to wait so long!" The two people stood up and said "it's okay" in return, then took their seats together and greeted the store owner to serve wine and food.
Both Zuo Langzhong and Zhu Fanghe are very familiar with Li You, and they can speak frankly without being secretive or reasoning. After three rounds of drinking, Mr. Zuo said to Li You: "Brother Li Xian, you are walking on the edge of the cliff now. If you are not careful, you will miss the mark. Are you aware of this situation?"
Of course Li You could hear the implication and knew what Zuo Langzhong meant. But he still asked knowingly: "Brother Zuo, are you talking about running a newspaper?"
Zuo Langzhong said: "You have been running a newspaper for a few days, and now it has made everyone feel insecure. It will certainly make you happy for a while. But in the long run, it will not be a good thing for you."
Li You laughed a few times, "Brother Zuo, do you think you can blame me for this situation?"
Mr. Zuo asked curiously: "How do you say this?"
Li You put down the wine in his glass and said with an angry look on his face: "To put it bluntly, I have gone through all kinds of things in the past. It is enough to deserve the hard work! But after the eunuch was eradicated, he was sent to the imperial supervision by the imperial court. Students, to put it harshly, it¡¯s like being exiled!
even so. I didn't dare to slack off, but I still tried my best and racked my brains to come up with a way to run the newspaper. Who knew it would just start. Some people jumped out to seize the magpie's nest and expelled me from the newspaper office of the Imperial College. What does this mean? Therefore, it is the princes of the temple who have failed me, not me who has failed the court. Do the two brothers think so? "
Mr. Zuo and Mr. Zhu looked at each other. Li You was right. He had indeed been excluded twice in a row. However, this is the normal state of affairs, and those who are unable to do so can only endure it for now. Those who are capable will naturally perform various "unwilling to be lonely" performances, which will lead to many jokes and anecdotes.
After thinking about this, they both nodded and said: "Yes, my good brother has been treated badly."
Li You said with some fierce words: "I guess someone entrusted you to talk to me below. I won't ask who it is! But my ugly words will be put here. Some people have done well in the first year of junior high school, so don't blame me. It¡¯s time to do that! Let¡¯s compete with each other in terms of skills. If someone encounters any trouble or loses face, it¡¯s because their skills are inferior to others, and they bring the blame and humiliation on themselves. You can¡¯t blame others!¡±
Of course, Zuo and Zhu realized that this was indeed Li You's complaint, but it should not just be treated as a complaint. He was also putting forward conditions. Since some people want Li You to stop, they have to show some sincerity. How to send him to the bench, how to invite him back.
As a good friend of Li You, Mr. Zuo sighed: "Why did those people come here? If I had known this, why did they do it in the first place, but your approach is not a long-term solution. I am not just here to be a middle-aged person, but I also sincerely advise you. Enough is enough, don't continue like this, there are some things that the emperor can do, but you can't follow suit."
Zhu Fanghe, who had been listening quietly for most of the time, now opened his mouth and said: "It is understandable that my dear brother would be angry because of this, but it would be ridiculed by the embroidered messenger, which would make the courtiers doubtful, so they have to act cautiously. "
Li You sneered and said: "Most of the people in the temple are short-sighted! I am doing this for the good of the court, but the princes have no idea. It should be noted that the emperor is still the emperor. Although he is young and weak, his subordinates will always have their own ideas. , you must have your own methods, how can you be easily fettered by your subordinates?
As the old saying goes, it¡¯s better to block than to open up! The previous method was to have factory guards. Compared with this, running a few newspapers and issuing a few instructions is nothing.
¡°Could it be that the princes in the temple are determined to make the emperor unable to do anything and embark on the old path of reopening factories and guards before they give up? If the temple officials can't even accept this bit of newspaper criticism, then stop being a minister of the Ming Dynasty and go rebel! "
Zhu Bulang exclaimed: "Good brother, be careful what you say!" What Li You said was really profound. The relationship between monarch and minister is not something that can be discussed casually. However, after thinking about it carefully, he found that what Li You said was also true. Not without reason. The emperor always needs to use the means of the bureaucracy to show his unfettered monarchy. Compared with using Dongchang Jinyiwei, newspaper instructions are much gentler.
Li YoujiDifficult matters were pushed to Li You; if the emperor did not agree, he could just use Po Xia Donkey's request to become an official.
The emperor had not yet reacted to Hu Shangshu's petition. Then his eyes flashed and he saw the king of Guanglu Temple coming out in front of Danbi. He kowtowed and said: "I heard that Li Qianxian has been an official for many years. He is as careful as his hair, can judge things clearly, and has an insight into business practices. I would like to recommend Li You and Li Guanglu, Shaoqing, to regulate all procurement affairs in the palace and court!"
The ministers in the palace were all astonished. Is Mr. Wang trying to imitate Great Sikong, or is it because the heroes have similar views and have had the same idea for a long time?
Hu Shangshu turned around and glared angrily at Wang Siqing, who was supposed to be a comrade in the trenches. Did he want to steal love and business with a knife? The reason why I didn't want to elaborate just now was to prevent others from having the same idea. I didn't expect that this situation would still happen!
Just when the emperor was a little at a loss, Master Yin Yao of Shuntian Prefecture suddenly rushed out of the class. "I have this memorial! It is well known that Li Qianxian has been a criminal officer for a long time. He has deep experience in the method of punishment and punishment. He is skillful in judging cases and sentencing. His job is also a Fengxian official. Therefore, I am asking the emperor to appoint Li Qianxian to inspect the Jingzhao Criminal Prison case!"
Another one! The officials in the palace were once again taken aback, and they were immediately dumbfounded. What happened today? Suddenly, Mr. Li, who was so idle that he even opened a newspaper shop, became so popular that everyone was fighting for it? There is a feeling that the universe is upside down and black and white are indistinguishable.
After thinking deeply about the strange situation, many people suddenly woke up! This principle is very simple, shoot the horse first if you shoot the man, and capture the king first if you capture the thief!
What is the value of Li You? As long as Li You himself is dealt with, it is equivalent to eliminating disasters and avoiding disasters! Is there any need to worry about enlightenment and retribution at that time? Do you still have to worry about being criticized by newspapers in the future? Do you still have to worry about not having nice things to say?
Not only can it eliminate disasters, but it can also have other uses! Once Li You is solved, it will be like adding the most powerful propaganda machine out of thin air!
Qin lost its deer, and the whole world chased it away! Li You now only has an empty official title, and is basically an idle figure. In terms of procedures, he can operate in any yamen! It can be said that no matter which yamen invites Li You, it is tantamount to inviting a great god who brings blessings and glory!
At that time, the countless yamen officials in the palace, except those who had a bad relationship with Li You, were all excited and eager to try. They all considered whether to petition the emperor to let Li You come to the yamen to serve or to handle affairs concurrently?
There are still people who are heartbroken, why didn¡¯t they think of this earlier! Otherwise, taking advantage of Li You's idle time to light up the cold stove, now it would be equivalent to holding the Ming Li Bao and watching the storm unfold with a smile!
People with sincerity have already started to take action, such as the Imperial College Stone Sacrifice. He told the emperor: "I have been favored by the emperor and served as the chief executive of the newspaper. I have no choice but to be incompetent. I really failed the expectations of the people and feel ashamed! Therefore, I ask you to remove me from the position of chief executive. Li Qianxian will still serve as the chief executive. Show your majesty¡¯s sage!¡±
Shi Jijiu was the fourth person who came out to recruit Li You. Everyone was already numb to this and did not arouse the slightest surprise.
But it has to be said that Shi Jijiu¡¯s petition was quite sincere. At least he admitted that he had no ability and was willing to let his power be damaged. He gave up his job as CEO and asked Li You to take over.
Master Shi is really motivated by public motives, and none of the other people recruited Li You at the premise of harming their own interests.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out out of nowhere, three or four more yamen hall officials came out and joined in the fun to recommend Li You to serve in the yamen.
The flowers are becoming more and more charming, and the situation has changed like this, which no one expected before. Jinghe and the emperor were deeply confused and really didn't know what to do.
If Mr. Li were qualified to stand in the Wenhua Hall at this time, he would definitely sigh with laughter and tears: "This is a world where strength is respected."
