Chapter 182
182 Li Yuchun_1
I hope that this child is stupid and foolish, and will be a Minister without any disaster … Hiss, what a vicious mouth.
The meaning of this poem was that the poet lamented that he was too smart and had been delayed for a lifetime. If he was a stupid person, he would be able to become a public official without any trouble.
He was mocking the officials, nobles, and ministers for being brainless fools.
The surrounding officials looked at each other with strange expressions. They had come to see Minister sun make a fool of himself, but he was suddenly stabbed in the back.
Not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
“The Sang Bo case: to Minister sun …” He was mocking me for being stupid, mocking me for shooting myself in the foot … ‘He wants to nail my name on the pillar of shame …’ The name of the poem echoed in Minister sun’s mind, and his heart was filled with anger.
The most noble pursuit of scholars was to leave their names in history, which was more attractive than teaching and educating people. However, at the same time, the more they desired to leave their names in history, the more they were afraid of being infamous for thousands of years.
How could he endure this?
This was unbearable.
men, take this puppet down, take it down!!! Minister sun was so angry that his whole body was trembling, and his face was red.
Because of his unauthorized decision and attempt to kill the head of the night watchman, Xu Qi ‘an, there was a follow-up to the Sang Bo case. She was already feeling so remorseful that she wanted to flip the table. At this moment, she couldn’t stand adding insult to injury.
However, Xu Qi ‘an’s poem was not about rocks, but mountains. Even Minister sun, who was an experienced official, was shocked.
The people from the Ministry of Justice rushed up in unison, wanting to capture Xu Qi ‘an outside the Imperial City.
“Lord Sun, please calm your anger.” Wei Yuan’s calm and gentle voice stopped the angry Ministry of Justice.
The man in green walked over unhurriedly and stood in front of Xu Qi ‘an.
Wei Yuan, this man has insulted me and a Minister in public. Release him according to the law. The Minister of Justice suppressed his anger and said word by word, ”
“Today, even you can forget about protecting him.”
“Slandering the Minister is indeed a serious crime.” Wei Yuan glared at Xu Qi ‘an sternly. Just when everyone thought he was going to scold the little Gong, he looked at Minister sun and said, “”Telling the truth isn’t slander.”
“You …” Minister sun’s body shook as he pointed at Wei Yuan with a trembling finger.
Wei Yuan smiled and turned to leave. Xu Qi ‘an followed behind his father and broke away from the encirclement of the people from the Ministry of Justice.
After a few steps, he stopped and turned back to shout, “”Congratulations Minister sun, your name has spread all over the world and the scholars have become famous.”
Minister sun was stunned. A few seconds later, he could not catch his breath and passed out.
“Minister, Minister …” The people from the Ministry of Justice panicked.
…..
Back at the Yamen, Xu Qi ‘an followed Wei Yuan into the noble Qi building and served tea to Wei Yuan and the other two.
“Lord Wei, there are a few things I don’t understand.” Xu Qi ‘an asked.
Wei Yuan was a strategist and a wise man. It was better to ask questions first than to figure them out by himself. It was just like asking a teacher for help when he had a problem in school. It was both convenient and fast.
“Why does your Majesty want the Ministry of Justice to handle this case?” Wei Yuan held his teacup and smiled faintly.
“Out of all the talents in the world, Duke Wei obtained eight portions. Yun Lu Academy and I will share one portion.” Xu Qi ‘an flattered.
“Pfft …” Jiang Luzhong spurted out a mouthful of tea.
Yang Yan’s mouth twitched.
The smile on Wei Yuan’s face widened. It was obvious that he enjoyed Xu Qi ‘an’s flattery.
Scholars were like this, you praised him:F * ck, that’s awesome. Old tie, 666. He can’t be bothered with you.
However, that didn’t mean that scholars didn’t like to be flattered. They just needed to change the way they were flattered. Xu Qi ‘an’s flattery was very precise. He used the way scholars liked to flatter Wei Yuan and made him feel comfortable.
Wei Yuan was a proud scholar.
“The minister of rites is a member of the king’s party. If we hand him over to the Yamen, it will implicate a large number of king’s party members.” Wei Yuan said.
At that time, the political parties in the Imperial court would lose their balance … Emperor Yuan jing didn’t want to see one or two families dominating the court. It would hinder his control of the court, especially when he was cultivating all year round … Even if the Royal faction colluded with the demons and blew up sang Bo and the Dharma laksana of the ancestor, the ancestor was nothing compared to his power … Xu Qi ‘an analyzed and extracted the core content from Wei Yuan’s words.
As a result, his impression of Emperor Yuan jing worsened.
Emperor Yuan jing might be a skilled Emperor, but he was not a good one. The fake historian Xu Qi ‘an divided the Emperor into three ranks:A wise ruler, a mediocre ruler, and an incapable ruler.
A wise Emperor was a good Emperor who could provide the people with food and clothing.
A mediocre Emperor was an Emperor who did nothing and did not make any major mistakes. Most of the emperors in history belonged to this category. In fact, to the common people, a mediocre ruler who did not disturb the people was already a wise ruler.
A fatuous Emperor was an Emperor who favored the lowly and distanced himself from virtuous officials. He would usually cause chaos in the Imperial court and the country.
The reason why tyrants weren’t included in the list was because the first three could be tyrants.
In Xu Qi ‘an’s eyes, Emperor Yuan jing was a fatuous Emperor. Even though he was the Emperor, he only cared about his own power and status. The current chaotic situation in the court was caused by Emperor Yuan jing.
He cultivated and paid no attention to the state affairs, so he needed the chaotic state of the Imperial court to stabilize his position. Otherwise, it would be easy for him to become a mere figurehead.
“There’s one more thing, I don’t understand why the minister of rites didn’t kill Zhou chixiong.” Xu Qi ‘an said.
He had thought that the night watchman would come to interrogate the minister of rites, but he didn’t expect Emperor Yuan jing to be so showy.
Wei Yuan shook his head, ” don’t bother about these small problems. The Sang Bo case has come to an end. His Majesty didn’t mention anything about you, which means it’s over.”
Xu Qi ‘an smiled from the bottom of her heart and immediately said, ” I plan to invite my colleagues to the Imperial Academy for a drink, but I don’t have the money. I’ll ask Lord Wei to allocate some funds.
This was like the company doing a business and everyone went to a restaurant for a meal. The company would, of course, pay for the expenses.
“Get lost,” Wei Yuan said.
After chasing Xu Qi ‘an away, Wei Yuan pondered for a moment and said, “”Yang Yan, give him two hundred taels of silver as a reward from the Yamen.”
After he finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Luzhong and Yang Yan. “You two can go together.”
no! Jiang Luzhong shook his head repeatedly. Duke Wei, I don’t want to go to a place like the Imperial Academy.
Yang Yan also shook his head.
Wei Yuan didn’t force her and sipped his tea leisurely, “”With him around, I reckon there will be many courtesans accompanying him.”
……
As night fell, the teaching workshop was brightly lit, and the melodious sound of bamboo flute music reverberated.
In the small pavilion of yingmei, the incense was playing the zither, the ink stone was dancing, and Xiaoya was acting as the commander. It was a lively scene.
Yang Yan and Jiang Luzhong each had a beautiful courtesan serving them wine. Xu Qi ‘an raised his glass and smiled.”Everyone, don’t be so reserved. Eat and drink as you should.”
The copper Gong and silver Gong were not used to it at first. After all, with two gold gongs present, they felt quite pressured.
However, Jiang Luzhong was an old hand at drinking and knew how to liven up the atmosphere. He kept raising his cup to toast and could even say dirty words, which was completely different from when he was on duty.
Gradually, the silver and bronze gongs let loose.
There were only two people present who looked serious and did not seem like they were here to provide support at all. They were Yang Yan and Li Yuchun.
you two are indeed superior and subordinate. You two have the same conduct. Jiang Luzhong teased with a smile.
Jiang Jinluo, you’re wrong. Xu Qi ‘an had drunk a lot of wine and was a little overconfident.
“Yang Jinluo is not lustful, but the boss is too fake. There’s still a difference between the two.”
Now, the atmosphere on the field was definitely relaxed. Everyone laughed and was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
They drank until a quarter past nine (9:30 in the evening) before the banquet finally ended. Jiang Luzhong left with the voluptuous courtesan in his arms, while Yang Yan returned to the Yamen.
Li Yuchun wanted to go back as well, but Xu Qi ‘an, song tingfeng, and Zhu guangxiao tried their best to make him stay. They forced a pretty girl into his room and locked him up.
As the ” host “, Xu Qi ‘an made arrangements for everyone before entering Fu Xiang’s room.
“Why are there so many people here today?” Fu Xiang, who had just finished her bath, sat cross-legged on the bed and wiped her black hair.
“It is still to let the young ladies in the courtyard be in good order.” Xu Qi ‘an took off his robe and saber, turned around, and left the room.
“I’ll be back later.”
He stealthily made his way to Li Yuchun’s room and saw song tingfeng and Zhu guangxiao, who were also sneaking around the corner.
“Are you here to eavesdrop too?” Xu Qi ‘an asked with his eyes.
The two of them nodded and asked with their eyes, ” boss is in the spirit forging stage. Be careful and control your breathing …
Finally, he walked slowly to the window of Li Yuchun’s room. He did not hear the sound of a rocking bed, but he could hear a conversation inside.
“Master, I’m done. You can go now.”
“Mm …” Li Yuchun replied in a low voice.
After a long time, when he was done washing, a woman’s voice could be heard. “Master, the bed is warm. What are you doing in the room?”
“The furnishings in the room are too messy, a mess, a mess. Staying in this room is like sitting on pins and needles.” Li Yuchun said bitterly.
“No…” Li Yuchun said seriously,’the teacups on the table should circle around the teapot and maintain a certain distance …’ The potted plants by the window had already moved two inches to the left … The stools were too messy, so they should be placed in the same way as the teacups surrounding the teapot …
“Ah?” The woman was stunned. it’s already very clean. I clean the house every day.
“No…” Li Yuchun said seriously,’the teacups on the table should circle around the teapot and maintain a certain distance …’ The potted plants by the window had already moved two inches to the left … The stools were too messy, so they should be placed in the same way as the teacups surrounding the teapot … Shouldn’t the painting hanging on the wall be in the center? The screen was crooked, but I just straightened it … Well, your embroidered shoes aren’t arranged properly either …”
“…. How, how can these be neat? who can do that?” “Master, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time,” the woman said gently.
Li Yuchun was displeased when she heard that. She said in a low voice, “”Who said you can’t do it? just watch and learn. I’ll teach you how to clean up the house.”
The woman: “??? ”
Under the window, Xu Qi ‘an and the other two were dumbfounded.
Xu Qi ‘an left on tiptoe.”The boss isn’t married?”
“You have a family.”
“Why do I feel like I’m a virgin?” Xu Qi ‘an said.
“It can’t be your first time at the Academy, right?” Song tingfeng was in disbelief. Although she had worked for Li Yuchun for many years, she did not know much about her personal life.
“Let’s go back to the room later and make a big scene,” Xu Qi ‘an said after some thought.
“Good idea.” Song tingfeng and Zhu guangxiao felt that this was a great idea.
As a result, the sound of the rocking bed in the yingmei Pavilion tonight was particularly intense.
