Chapter 291 Time-seeking
Chapter 291 Time-seeking
There are a lot of parties in January, and I am more concerned about these than in previous years. I asked Lan Sheng to classify them one by one for me. I even saw all the gift lists in previous years with my own eyes, only to find out that I was in Yeting. Many people are worried: Li Dan started to send gifts to me in the second year after he was imprisoned. In the first year, they were all his autographed poems, red ink, etc., with some gold, silver, and silk. Many practical utensils, but in the third year they were more elegant, mostly books and pictures, etc., and added rewards for the servants, and this year, as a younger brother, I copied many blessings and longevity posts for me——Rewards for the servants Still; Princess Qinghe and Princess Anding give me festival gifts every year as usual, and even the rewards to the servants are the same as when I never offended my mother; although Liu Houde has left, he still sends some greetings every year, thinking It was a plan to leave a way out; the most unexpected thing to me was Wan'er, who sent me poems and stickers every year to celebrate the New Year, and this year gave me a collection of judgment essays, which included several imperial courts who passed through them. A classic sentence by a female officer.
A Huan and Cui Mingde have a good eye for selecting people. Lan Sheng is an excellent secretary. He is thoughtful and orderly. On the paper, each name is followed by the person's resume and deeds, and even A Huan's name is also marked: Luling Princess, Jingzhao Wei's East Family, Father Xuanzhen, Mother Cui, Brother Xun, Ze, Dan, Ming, Pei, Hui, the same father and elder brother Qing, are currently the Prime Minister of Sibin Temple. They have three sons and a daughter.He also drew for me all the relatives of the people I came and went with—if it was A Huan or Cui Mingde, although they would also classify and annotate for me, they would only select the important ones that I am not familiar with. The notes will not be so detailed, but Lan Sheng treats everyone equally, and notes everything that should be noted, without omissions.
In the past, I would have laughed at Lan Sheng's old-fashioned and meddling things in my heart, but now I am respectful, and I specially called her to my side, and said gratefully: "Thank you."
Lan Sheng bowed slightly: "Just doing my duty." She didn't wear a veiled hat in the mansion, but only covered her face with a layer of black veil. When she spoke, her voice was hoarse, as if her throat had been injured. After saying this, she paused After a pause, Fang said: "This list will also be copied and sent to Qing Niangzi, and presented to His Majesty for review."
I smiled and said, "Really? I wanted to present a copy to A Niang myself. If you do it, I don't need to worry about it."
Lan Sheng glanced at me silently, then bowed again and said, "Although we gave it to you, the princess had better give me another one."
As soon as I thought about it, I knew why, and I was even more grateful: "Thank you."
She lowered her eyes and didn't speak anymore.I went through the list in my hand several times, selected the ones who felt important and picked another copy, and hid it in my arms. I went to look for A Huan first when I entered the palace. , Fang went to see Cui Mingde: "Li Zhaode sent another note, and also attached a great gift."
In the past few months, I have somewhat understood the princes and princes in the court. Due to the rise of cruel officials and the struggle for power among the various warriors, those who can serve their mother as close officials are either clansmen of the Wu and Yang surnames, or those who flirt with others and protect themselves wisely. This is Li Zhaode But they are strong-minded and dare to do things. They are regarded as a clear stream among the turbid people. Lai Zixun, Qiu Shenji, and Zhou Xing repeatedly framed ministers in front of their mothers and turned black and white. Only Xu Yougong and Li Zhaode dared to In defense, Xu Yougong was dismissed and imprisoned for trivial matters this year, but Li Zhaode was promoted step by step, entered Yushitai, and became a colleague with Lai Zixun-I thought that a noble person like him would not care about clinging to me as a "powerful person", I was shocked when I received the gift list.
Cui Mingde was busy looking at the map—since Dugu Shao left, every time I saw her, she was doing this—he heard the words and reluctantly put away the map, and patiently explained to me: " This person is shrewd and capable, has a good reputation, and is at odds with the Wu family and Lai Zixun, and the king of Zhou couldn't cling to him, so he naturally sent gifts to you—he is by no means the only one. There are not a few elders who want to make friends with Er Niang, and you have to be careful not to be manipulated by them."
I smiled and said: "At the beginning Gao Zu wanted to join the Li family in Longxi, but they rejected us verbally, and they disliked us as a new family name, but now they are all loyal and wholeheartedly defending us."
Cui Mingde could hear my displeasure, so he didn't talk to me, he just served me a cup of tea, and after I sipped it, Fang Xu said: "Anyone with a discerning eye knows that as long as His Majesty is not confused, the world will belong to the Li family sooner or later. Otherwise, where will the temple be attached? Even so, from now to the future, no one can predict how dangerous and treacherous the storm will be. This is the first. The second is that it is now in the Tang Dynasty Although it is a time when the country is in peril and the wind and rain are precarious, it is a good time for the courtiers to make contributions and become famous for a long time. If the election is right, it will be a breeze to ascend the dragon and enter the country, and to be crowned king and worship minister. Therefore, those who have a little knowledge, Either they are trying to rely on a big tree for self-protection, or they want to rely on a big tree in order to go straight to the sky. Zhuwu will advance to the future and suddenly become prominent. His family has no background and no one. He is talented and holds an important position, and there are many eagles and dogs. Clinging to them will not only damage his reputation, but also may not be able to stand out among them. It is better to make friends with you. Keeping a clear name is beneficial to official career. Three things, you are His Majesty's biological daughter after all, and you are closer than Zhu Wu and other half-brothers, and you have no great interest in the throne. There is no reason for suspicion, he is indeed the best candidate. He has a good eye, so he voted for you in advance, and in a few years, when you are powerful, you may not remember who Li Zhaode is."
I smiled and said, "He has a good eye, so don't you and Dugu Shao have better eyes?" I mentioned Ah Shao on purpose, and sure enough, I saw Cui Mingde frowned slightly, pretending not to hear the name: "It's better to seek power than to plan a situation. It's better to plan than to plan. Li Zhaode is like this, and Erniang should be like this. Your Majesty's revolution has been four years, and the world has been settled. If the cruel officials want to implicate them wantonly, it will not be of much use. When it was empty, court officials were in danger, everyone was in danger, there were many people flattering their horses, and few people working hard, His Majesty knew it in his heart, and he also intended to retain talents for the court, so strong men like Li Zhaode repeatedly offended cruel officials , and direct remonstrance, but they can still be kept until now, and Lou Shide, Di Renjie and others can also be recalled from the local area to the capital and entrusted with reuse. At this time, if Erniang can slowly introduce some capable people like Li Zhaode to His Majesty , Those who are willing to work, His Majesty will consider Er Niang as his heart. Your Majesty has counted the imperial edicts of seeking talents, and Zhu Wu also used this to recommend his confidantes to His Majesty. It is a pity that he is too eager for success, and recommending too many will be indiscriminate. Two If Niang can recommend slowly, and those recommended are capable and competent, His Majesty will regard Erniang as a selfless acquaintance, and Zhuwu as a means of promoting a private party. Erniang is born by His Majesty himself. She is a beautiful young girl with a delicate and weak personality. Zhu Wu is His Majesty's nephew. Wealth and power are all done by yourself in the government, and you are most afraid of dividing power and seizing power. Compared with the two, is it not clear who your Majesty will lean towards and who you are more willing to use? It is best for Er Niang to recommend They are around thirty years old, their qualifications are low, their prestige is not high, even if they are promoted, they will not arouse His Majesty's suspicion, and these people are both talented and favored by nobles. After several years of experience in the court, they will surely reach high positions. They were helped by their second mother when they were young and had no roots, and they were definitely grateful in their hearts. One person and two people will not hinder the overall situation, but ten or twenty people can influence the government. A counterweight."
I stared at her dumbfounded. It took me a while to pick up the teacup and hand it to her personally: "Cui Er, you...it would be a pity if a talent like you didn't take charge of state affairs."
Cui Mingde lowered his eyes, and said indifferently: "I only dare to hide behind people and plot - and I can only hide behind and plot. Those brave things that charge ahead have nothing to do with me."
The author has something to say: Cui Er: Ah, take the blame and send you to death. I am only responsible for making ideas, and it is none of my business whether it will be successful or not.
