    Chapter 291 Long time no see

    There were so many civil and military personnel in the entire dynasty, including the first and second-rank officials, not counting the feudal officials and not counting the lords. There were only a dozen or so in the imperial court, but the only courtier in front of Fang Jie who could truly become the emperor's confidant was the one in front of him.  The fourth-grade Huangmen Shilang.  How could this person who was the only person qualified to sit in the inner court and sort out memorials for the emperor be a simple person?

    So Fang Jie just said one sentence, and he guessed Fang Jie's intention.

    The conflict between Fang Jie and Lu Ou was indeed caused by Lu Ou causing trouble in Hong Xiu Zhao. Fang Jie's maiming of Lu Ou was caused by his small penis, but this was by no means the only reason.  In fact, Fang Jie's attitude towards Lu Ou was already very cold when they were in his shop.  He was indeed deliberately creating a phenomenon in which he was at odds with the Southwest Left Avant-garde, and of course he was doing it to show His Majesty the Emperor.

    As for the courtiers, Fang Jie was not interested in acting for them.

    This is why, when standing in the rain outside Dongnuang Pavilion, Fang Jie would wonder if he had gone a little too far.  It was his intention to create conflicts with the left avant-garde, but beating a dignified fifth-grade tooth general to a disability did seem to violate national laws.

    ¡° Moreover, the conflict with the left avant-garde seems to be a bit big.

    In fact, Fang Jie knew why the emperor sent himself to the southwest. Even though the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were very busy now, they were not so short of manpower that they were stretched thin. Logically speaking, the imperial mission should be done by civilian officials.  Fang Jie is obviously not suitable in terms of qualifications, prestige, and status.

    But the emperor chose him because he knew there was a conflict between him and Luo Yao's son Luo Wen.  The emperor did not want the imperial envoys he sent to have too close relationships with local officials and generals.

    Pei Yan's words revealed Fang Jie's thoughts, and Fang Jie used surprise to cover up the shock in his eyes.  Only then did he truly discover that a person's insight could be so powerful.  Pei Yan guessed his thoughts in just a flash. If such a person were to be his opponent, Fang Jie would be truly afraid from the bottom of his heart.

    ¡°It¡¯s a good thing to be smart.¡±

    Pei Yan smiled and said: "The Great Sui Dynasty has never lacked talents, and it has never lacked smart people. It can be said that there are many children from poor families similar to you, who are amazing and beautiful. But they fell down halfway.  Most people can never get up again. You are much stronger than them. It is undeniable that part of the reason is because you have better luck than them, but more importantly intelligence is not everything. Only if you dare to use your intelligence can you have a chance. "

    Pei Yan glanced at Fang Jie indifferently and continued to approve the memorial: "When people move forward, they will try their best to make the road under their feet smoother. But few of them can understand one truth that is, there is  Sometimes putting yourself in a seemingly disadvantageous situation can actually work to your advantage.¡±

    "This is what makes you unique."

    Pei Yan said: "You don't need to pay attention to what I said. I just stayed in this room alone for too long. You can understand it as a lonely person who wants to find someone to talk to, without any purpose at all. But I am very  I appreciate young people like you, Sui also needs more young people like you.¡±

    Fang Jie nodded, stood up and bowed solemnly: "Thank you, Mr. Pei."

    "no need thank me?"

    Pei Yan smiled and said, "Thank me for revealing your thoughts?"

    While writing something on the memorial with a red pen, he said gently: "I have been sitting in the position of Huangmen Minister for more than ten years. I am afraid that I have seen more young talents than your Majesty has ever seen.  Many people even I thought they would get up, but unfortunately there is only one Huai Qiu Gong that can make people remember their names and become a benchmark in the past fifty years. Your luck is Hua Qiu Gong.  Very old.¡±

    After saying this, Pei Yan smiled mockingly: "Look at me, I would say such a thing. Just pretend that I didn't say it and you didn't hear it."

    Fang Jie's heartbeat began to beat faster and faster, and an idea gradually emerged in his mind after Pei Yan's words.  What does Pei Yan mean by this?  Is Huai Qiugong too old?

    right!

    "Huaiqiugong is too old and will retire from this stage.  He was a model of the poor held up by Emperor Zhenzong and a veteran of the three dynasties.  But the glory will eventually fade over the years, and now the Great Sui Dynasty is in a troubled time.  The emperor naturally did not want the children of poor families to lose their faith after Huai Qiugong grew old, so the emperor naturally wanted to hold up another example of poor families.  With such a model, the children of poor families in the Sui Dynasty still had their own goals of striving for improvement.

    This new paradigmis it me?

    When Fang Jie thought of this, his fingers were trembling slightly.

    if it is realIf so, then what Pei Yan said to him today has some profound meaning.  First, since Pei Yan told him, it was a sign of goodwill.  It is much more useful to start building a good relationship with someone like Huai Qiugong now than to wait until later.  Second, Pei Yan wants to tell him that since you are the candidate in His Majesty's mind, there is no need to be timid.

    Since the conflict with the left midfielder has been created, there is nothing to worry about.  As long as there is no big accident, the emperor will not beat the model he is about to hold to death with a stick.

    The second meaning of Pei Yan¡¯s words is to give Fang Jie confidence.

    "Thank you, Lord Pei, for your advice!"

    Fang Jie saluted again, more solemnly and seriously than the previous one.

    "Instructions?"

    Pei Yan couldn't help laughing: "I didn't say anything, and I didn't advise anything. I just said, you are a rare smart person. Smart people have the advantage of being smart, that is, many things can be understood by themselves.  What you learn is not what others teach you step by step, understand? Sometimes you have already stepped on the road, but because you dare not take the first step, you have lost your way. In fact, there are so many choices in life. In my opinion, there are only two.  . One, go forward. Two, go back. But these two options can evolve in several different ways."

    "Keep moving forward? Back first and then forward? First forward and then back? As long as you choose the right method at the right time, many things are easier than you think."

    "Students understand!"

    Fang Jie nodded vigorously, feeling suddenly enlightened.

    Dong Nuan Pavilion

    After entering the door, Fang Jie bowed meticulously, then stood aside with his head bowed.  The emperor seemed to still like to sit on the Tukang to handle government affairs. The comfortable and spacious chair next to the Tukang was just a decoration most of the time.  Perhaps it was because the sky was cloudy and the light in the room was not very good, so when he read the memorial, the emperor's head was lowered, his chin was supported with one hand, and his brows were slightly frowned.

    "A fight?"

    He asked without raising his head.

    Fang Jie replied: "There was a fight"

    "Did you win?"

    "We won the battle."

    The emperor nodded: "That's not too bad. If he is the first person to enter the Yanwu Academy, he is the second outstanding genius of the nine disciplines in the Sui Dynasty in more than a hundred years, and he has just been named a first-class countryman by me.  Even I felt embarrassed when I got beaten up in a fight with a random guy who came to Beijing from other places."

    "My lord your attack was a little harsh."

    Fang Jie lowered his head and said.

    "How heavy?"

    The emperor asked.

    "I crippled a fifth-grade general who was guarding the southwest. This violated the laws of the Sui Dynasty. Please punish me."

    "This is a problem"

    The emperor raised his head and glanced at him and asked: "I heard that you disabled one of his arms, and even the palm of his hand was smashed by youthe left hand or the right hand?"

    "Left hand"

    Fang Jie answered truthfully.

    The emperor hummed: "The left hand is better. If your right hand is smashed by you, it will be more difficult to hold the sword again. After all, it is not easy to change habits. If a fifth-grade man who has made many achievements has  General Ya can no longer hold a sword and can no longer fight for the country. It is indeed a loss. "

    Fang Jie didn¡¯t know what the emperor meant, so he had no choice but to remain silent.

    "What if, because of this incident, I ask someone to destroy your left hand and give it back to others?"

    The emperor looked at him and asked.

    Fang Jie was silent for a moment and then replied: "Can I owe a debt?"

    The emperor seemed to have guessed that he would answer this way, so he curled his lips with an expression that showed no surprise at all: "Then just keep the account, I will deduct your credit in the future to help you pay off the debt. I will fine you for one year.  If you have enough salary, you should make meritorious service."

    Fang Jie didn¡¯t expect that this matter would be over so easily. Although the annual salary of a first-class countryman is not a small amount, it seems that it is not a loss to use this money to buy the left hand of a fifth-grade general.  He remembered his previous conversation with Pei Yan, and his admiration for this low-key Huangmen servant became even stronger.  This man actually completely guessed the emperor's reaction.  That's why I said those words to myself, telling him that there was nothing to worry about.

    This man¡¯s understanding of the emperor¡¯s character was so terrifying.

    "Tell me, did you lose one of his hands because Lu Ou violated national laws, or because he hit your woman?"

    Fang Jie couldn't help but be startled when he heard this question, and then replied seriously: "Thatlittle pawn with red sleeves"??, not Chen¡¯s woman.  Of course, the fact that I took action in anger had something to do with her.  "

    "There are two beauties around you who are as beautiful as flowers. I heard that although the young master of Hongxiu Zhao is very beautiful, he is only a half-year-old child and cannot be compared with the two in your family. So you are  It¡¯s unfair to say that he got into a fight with a general who came to Beijing because of a woman.¡±

    The emperor said: "The laws of the country are inviolable. But you are young and passionate, and it is not good to act carelessly. Even if you want to maintain the laws and regulations of the court, you cannot control yourself when your head is hot. Reflect on it after you go back,  You can¡¯t act on your own initiative.¡±

    When Fang Jie heard these words, he suddenly understood what the emperor meant: "Thank you for your love and care, Your Majesty!"

    The emperor rolled his eyes at him: "Don't cause me any trouble, I have to thank you"

    He pointed to a decree on the desk and said: "Just because you broke someone, I have to write a decree myself to appease How to calculate the writing fee? I deduct one year's salary from you and it's cheap I  Although the calligraphy is not very good, if someone sells it, it will not be much lower than Yan Liuzhi's original calligraphy. "

    "How about a two-year fine?"

    Fang Jie asked tentatively.

    "OK"

    The emperor nodded: "Then you will be fined for two years, go home and think about the past behind closed doors. As for when to go to Yongzhou, I will naturally send someone to inform you."

    "I just said it casually"

    "late!"

    "Thank you Lord for your kindness"

    Fang Jie saluted seriously and wanted to laugh, but held it back.

    At this time, there was suddenly a noise outside Dongnuan Pavilion.  Before the emperor had time to let Su Buwei go out and take a look, someone opened the door curtain from the outside, and a graceful figure rushed in with a scent of fragrance.  This man came in so fast, if Fang Jie hadn't reacted quickly, the two of them would have collided.

    "Father!"

    The woman who came in suddenly threw herself into the emperor's arms, wiping snot and tears on the emperor's dragon robe: "I don't want to go to the southwest, and I don't want to marry that bastard Luo Wen! I've never even seen him before.  He, who knows if he is a loser! Besides, are you willing to marry me so far away?"

    Fang Jie smiled sarcastically, said goodbye and headed out.

    But the emperor stopped him: "Wait a minute You are responsible for the eldest princess' affairs. Now you go out with the eldest princess for a walk. I still have something to do Well, Wanyi, this person is the one I plan to send to the southwest."  The imperial envoy who is inspecting it, if you have any questions, just ask him directly, and don¡¯t disturb the emperor¡¯s review of the memorial, okay?¡±

    Yang Wanyi, the eldest princess of the Sui Dynasty, looked back and saw that the person in front of her looked familiar.

    Then she suddenly remembered the most disgusting words Fang Jie said in prison.  She immediately stood up straight, pointed at Fang Jie's nose and said angrily, "It's you!"

    Fang Jie quickly apologized and said, "Your Highness, Princess, long time no see."
