Chapter 984 This is hope
Chang'an city in early autumn is very cool.
"Peace!"
Wu Mei teased her daughter.
The three prince brothers watched eagerly from the side.
"Auntie!"
The prince couldn't bear it anymore, "I'll hug my sister."
Wu Mei said disgustedly: "What should I do if I fell?"
The prince raised his hand and swore, "If I fall, I will fall!"
This kid!
Li Hong took the swaddle and said in surprise, "My sister's face is much paler than the day before."
Li Zhe joined in the fun, "My sister is looking at me."
Li Xian said dissatisfied: "Taiping wants you to go away."
Shaopeng came in, approached and whispered: "Queen, Your Majesty said... those people are done arguing."
Wu Mei nodded, and there was more excitement in her eyes.
Shao Peng remembered the worry of the emperor at that time, but the queen was actually happy.
"Peace... let him enter the palace."
When Jia Ping'an entered the palace, the prince had just come out with his two younger brothers. He looked disheartened and heard the sound of children crying inside.
"Did you make Taiping cry?"
Jia Pingan thinks that a brat is just a brat.
The prince glanced at Li Xian.
Li Xian smiled, nodded slightly, and then left.
He was accompanied by a few servants and court ladies, Han Da was his person, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this is Duke Jia, and the Empress is quite concerned about it. It will be of great benefit if you can be friendly with him."
Aunt Chen on the other side said worriedly: "The queen just got angry, will she be dissatisfied with the king?"
Li Xian's smile faded away, and he said lightly: "Aniang only has the prince in her eyes, and so does Aye."
Han Da froze for a moment, "Your Majesty, His Majesty only rewarded you yesterday..."
"Those things..."
Li Xian smiled and said: "It's easy to use. By the way, wait for Qilang and go to fight **** with him."
Aunt Chen sighed, "Your Majesty, your majesty and the queen don't like cockfights, so why not go play football."
Li Xian frowned and looked at her, "It's none of your business what I like? If you weren't sent by Auntie, I'll kick you out right now."
Aunt Chen smiled wryly: "I have worked so hard..."
"Your painstaking efforts will be handed over to your son!"
Aunt Chen was silent.
Jia Ping'an entered the hall, and saw Auntie coaxing the child, he wondered: "Taiping also loves to cry a little too much, and he didn't do it like this back then."
Wu Mei sat there with her baby in her arms, and said angrily: "The three elder brothers took turns teasing her, why don't you think the little one is angry?"
Jia Ping'an smiled, "I think she will be Jiaojiao from now on."
Wu Mei smiled and said: "My daughter, naturally she should be Jiaojiao."
As long as she doesn't get involved in government affairs.
Princess Taiping in history was ambitious and was eventually killed by Li Longji.
Wu Mei handed the baby to the wet nurse, rubbing the corners of her eyes, "It's more tiring to take care of the baby than to read memorials."
Who says no!
Jia Ping'an has a deep understanding of this.
Wu Mei looked at him with a serious expression, "The gentry have negotiated."
"They need a balance internally." Wu Mei said sarcastically: "They talk about morality, benevolence and righteousness, but there is no movement for a long time. It's not for the country and the people, but it's difficult to agree."
"It's just male thieves and female prostitutes." Jia Pingan said casually.
Wu Mei frowned, "Nobles don't do that."
hehe!
Jia Pingan can only hehe.
Snapped!
Jia Pingan received a slap on the head.
"Speak well, haha, you're so yin and yang!"
Wu Mei said: "It's hard to say what they will do. I have discussed with His Majesty, and they dare not come directly at us, otherwise they will turn their faces."
"Flip your face... Your Majesty holds an army."
Jia Ping'an narrowed his eyes, "However, this kind of thing can't be done until it is absolutely necessary, otherwise it will become an example. Once future generations feel that any force is inappropriate, they dare to send out an army to wipe it out. Everyone is in danger, how can there be security? ?”
"It's good that you know."
Wu Mei's eyes softened, "You have to be careful. They will use soft knives against me and His Majesty, but they are not so secretive towards you. Ping'an, I really regret it now, you should have been a minister and a duke earlier .You have to know that now you..."
She couldn't go on, Jia Pingan said with a smile: "I am not an opponent in their eyes now."
Minister of the Ministry of War, Duke of the county... But the old men are dying, and Jia Ping'an has lost his greatest support.
Wu Mei sighed: "It's safe...it's a pity."
Jia Ping'an smiled and said, "Sister, I'm not worried about this. I'm just a little curious, the gentry are like this...why never see them change their dynasties?"
"You mean Guan Long?"
Wu Mei didn't seem to know that Lao Li's family was the representative of Guan Long's rebellion, and said meaningfully: "Ping An, you must remember that the more beautiful the flower blooms, the more thrilling it is, the faster it withers."
Jia Ping'an realized, "Guanlong is like a flash in the pan, but the gentry subtly integrated themselves into this dynasty. It still exists for thousands of years, and they can still get what they want..."
He narrowed his eyes, "They despise Guan Long and other idiots who use **** means to seize power and money, and like to moisten things silently."
Wu Mei nodded, and said gratifiedly: "I am very pleased that you can see this. In the eyes of the gentry, the royal family is only crowned with monkeys. The most noble in the world is their family..."
"It can be traced back, their ancestors were just mortals."
"right."
Wu Mei said calmly: "Their inheritance time is too long. Through marriage and other means, they have already been connected with many families."
"Big monster." With the explosion of information in later generations, Jia Ping'an immediately thought of many examples.
This is a huge force in a country within a country.
"right."
Wu Mei suddenly smiled, "The king and the horse share the world. Back then, the Wang family was like a colossus and dominated the front Jin Dynasty. Sima Rui..." She raised her eyebrows contemptuously to show her disdain for the Sima family, "Sima Rui is the king As the second father, he often writes edicts with panic or pause, which is the beginning of the family's glory."
Jia Ping'an really doesn't know about this period of history.
"Director Wang is so powerful?"
Wu Mei said angrily: "It is because you are so ignorant that you are not good at studying. Director Wang is from the Langya Wang family."
Damn it!
This group of so-called aristocratic families is really a disaster for thousands of years.
"You have to be careful!"
Wu Mei reminded her again and again... She was never so nervous about brother's safety when the elder Sun Wuji was around.
After leaving the palace, Jia Pingan didn't know who to look for, and finally wandered to the practice workshop.
Familiar brand, the words on it are not very good, Jia Pingan shouted: "Tsing Yi!"
"Who is looking for Tsing Yi?"
Amidst the ferocious voice, Fan Ying came out. Seeing that it was Jia Ping'an, she said coldly, "Tsing Yi is not free."
"Mr. Jia."
Wei Qingyi came out.
Fan Ying's old face hasn't changed at all.
Jia Pingan entered Wei Qingyi's room, sat down and said, "Help me take a look."
Wei Qingyi raised his eyes, and there was a smile in his deep eyes, "What are you looking at?"
"Maybe it depends on my fortune in the past few years?"
Wei Qingyi shook his head, "The so-called fortune is actually following one's heart."
Isn’t it Congxin?
Jia Ping'an was a little disappointed.
It turns out that even an expert can't see a person's fortune.
"Some people are vicious but full of blessings, wealth, longevity and happiness, and some are kind but short-lived. The so-called fortune depends on your words and deeds in addition to God's will. Sometimes an unintentional word or an unintentional trip can bring about changes. The so-called fortune ...How do you see it? The secrets of heaven are changing rapidly...unpredictable."
Wei Qingyi sat there on his knees, with a calm expression and an orchid-like temperament, which made people not feel blasphemous.
"Then it will be all right."
Jia Pingan suddenly smiled.
He is not an invincible god, so when he learned that the Shandong gentry regarded him as a shrimp and was about to crush him, he was at a loss for the first time, and then subconsciously went to Wei Qingyi to see his luck.
It’s like a later life, a self-employed person has a grudge against a big listed company, and the big listed company vows to bring him down...
what can I do?
"You're in trouble."
Wei Qingyi said calmly: "There are so many worries in the world of mortals, and you look so tired."
"Wife and children, property, friends, many related families, private affairs and official affairs are always endless."
Jia Ping'an smiled and said, "Have you got tired of this world of mortals?"
Wei Qingyi moved, but took the chessboard from under the table.
"Play chess."
"good!"
The two began to talk by hand.
At the moment Li Yifu is laughing, but not very happy.
"Jia Pingan wandered around all day, and didn't think about enlightenment at all."
Experts are still actively discussing, Li Yifu stood outside the door and said with a smile: "This time, I will definitely beat Jia Pingan."
The confidant leaned forward and said, "My lord, something is wrong with those gentry."
"Their discussion is over."
Li Yifu smiled kindly, "There are too many people, and I can't decide the direction at once, so I sent a few so-called celebrities, but the faces of those so-called celebrities were swollen by Jia Pingan."
My confidant smiled, but he couldn't imitate Li Yifu's smile, "But once those people make a move, I don't know if His Majesty and Empress Wu can stop them. If they can't..."
Li Yifu's eyes were gloomy, "I can't stop it... That means the emperor and his family share the world."
The confidant's body shook, "The king and the horse..."
…
Jia Pingan killed Wei Qingyi in a game of chess without leaving any pieces.
"Your chess skills do not match those of the current world."
"Just a wild guess."
Master Jia was an amateur chess player in his previous life. Amateur chess players must first test their combat effectiveness.
So today he used 100% of his combat power, and Wei Qingyi knelt down directly.
"Thinking about..."
Wei Qingyi said meaningfully: "A lot of times it's not bad to think about it randomly."
Punching the old master to death?
Damn it!
Gan!
It is impossible for him to lie flat!
"Damn!"
Standing outside the duty room of the Ministry of War, Jia Pingan shouted happily.
Chen Jinfa came quietly, "Mr. Jia, the Cui family went to two celebrities, but Li Yi's mansion didn't agree, and the two sides started arguing."
"Want to write a primer?"
"yes."
Once they decided to make a move, the methods of the gentry made people feel chills down the spine.
They set out to compile the enlightenment book, and they can imagine what the content will be with their asses.
Belittle new learning from the root, and praise Confucianism.
Li Yifu has taken a firm stand.
But breast stimulation is not very optimistic.
"Push your face..."
Cui Jian covered his face, and came out of the official department hesitantly, "Xiao Jia!"
Jia Pingan rushed to the side suddenly, and he could see clearly at once.
I go!
Slap print!
"Who did it?"
Jia Pingan asked coldly.
I'll kill him!
Cui Jian looked around, "Forget it, this matter... don't talk about it."
Jia Pingan understood.
"Thank you brother Cui."
He bowed his hands solemnly.
Cui Jian said in shame: "I can't help, there are many elders in the family, and Duke Yixuan is gone, otherwise he can still be here... hey!"
Cui's internal meeting set the general direction for the future.
"The thing about the school is to dig out the roots. When those people mentioned you, their eyes were wrong. Some said they wanted to take your head, and some said they wanted to ruin your reputation."
Cui Jian said this without hesitation.
The family was furious.
If you want to dig our roots, I will naturally dig yours.
A song echoed in Jia Ping'an's mind.
"It's in Chang'an."
Brother Cui left in a hurry after leaving a word.
It is in Chang'an, that is to say, if the scope of the school is controlled in Chang'an City, the gentry will make a certain compromise.
Jia Pingan smiled, "What they want is the family's glory and wealth, but what I want...they don't understand."
In the school, sir comes in.
"Stand up!"
"sit down!"
"Open the first page of the textbook."
Sun Liang opened the first page of the textbook.
"Read after me." The gentleman raised his head, his eyes were full of piety, "I am responsible for the rise and fall of the world!"
Sun Liang recited loudly along with the students.
"I am responsible for the rise and fall of the world!"
This is an elementary class, and the students are almost all semi-literate.
are very young!
Every child is looking up, and the immature face is full of...
"This is hope!"
Mr. smiled.
…
Li Yifu realized that he had made a mistake.
"Go and find out how many of those people are related to the family!"
I hope not many!
He made a guess from the perspective of conspiracy theory.
"Those aristocratic families have great means. If they want to do something, how can they be so bright?"
No!
The more Li Yifu thought about it, the more wrong he became, the familiar smile disappeared, and he paced gloomyly in the duty room.
"I can despise anyone, but I dare not despise the family. Once these people want to trick someone, the method is beyond your imagination..."
The confidant coughed dryly, and when Li Yifu frowned and looked over, he said softly: "They messed with Jia Ping'an... This is a good thing! Mr.!"
Li Yifu said coldly: "I wish I could let Jia Ping'an die, but I am in charge of compiling the enlightenment book. If something goes wrong, do you think this old man can get away with it?"
The confidant's complexion changed slightly, and he hurried away.
…
On the second day, as soon as Li Yifu arrived at the duty room, his confidant came in.
"And wait."
Li Yifu was eating breakfast... There was Hoto in an open bottle, and he was eating it with a long-handled spoon.
The Tang Dynasty did not allow high-ranking officials to enter the market, let alone eat on the road. Even as domineering as Li Yifu, he could only pack Huo in porcelain vases and bring them to the value house to eat.
The soup is steaming hot, and the confidant smells the aroma of bone soup, with a slight mutton smell.
Jia Pingan, a famous gourmet in the Tang Dynasty, said that mutton without any mutton smell is not good.
The same is true for Li Yifu, mutton and mutton soup must have the smell of mutton. You want to say that my sheep eats herbs, so it doesn't smell like sheep... Sorry, I don't like it.
Jia Pingan also has another saying in private: stinky tofu advertises itself as not stinky, so is it still stinky tofu?
Li Yifu ate faster and faster.
When eating hot noodles with soup, the mouth and throat gradually adapt to the hotness, and it will become faster and faster.
There were beads of sweat on his forehead, but he didn't care to wipe it off, and he kept eating Hoto.
At the end of the meal, he kept digging at the bottom of the bottle with a spoon, eating the soup and residue with a look of intoxication.
When there was no more scoop, Li Yifu lifted the porcelain bottle and poured it into his mouth.
After drinking the last sip of soup, he wiped his mouth and sighed contentedly.
It can be said.
The confidant said: "More than ten people inside are related to the clan."
Li Yifu heaved a sigh of relief, his eyes became more stern, "A group of low dog slaves, this was premeditated, but the old man missed it."
The confidant said anxiously: "Master, get out."
Li Yifu smiled kindly, "Get out...what excuse?"
Well!
My confidant thought for a while, but couldn't think of any excuse.
Li Yifu said flatly: "Jia Ping'an is going to be unlucky, but before that, the old man has to go to the palace, otherwise Jia Ping'an will be unlucky... The queen is afraid that she will be furious, and then the old man will be in trouble."
He hurried into the palace.
The Emperor is very busy.
"Your Majesty and Prime Minister Li are discussing matters."
Li Xiang here refers to Li Ji.
"Your Majesty, the veteran thinks that Tubo is aggressive and will become a big problem sooner or later. Tuyuhun is a place of war, but Tubo was defeated here, so the veteran thinks that Lu Dongzan will definitely attack Anxi..."
Li Ji said very calmly, "In this way, there should be a safe and famous general in the Western Regions, and the veteran is willing to go."
Li Zhi said indifferently: "But I can't do without the Duke of England."
Li Ji was sad for a long time, Wang Zhongliang couldn't help feeling that the emperor was too nostalgic.
Since the British Duke wants to go, let him go!
Li Ji sighed and said, "So, the veteran recommends someone."
Li Zhi nodded, "The British prince has a keen eye, and the recommended person must be good."
Shouldn’t the emperor keep silent and wait for the British government to name a candidate before making a decision?
Wang Zhongliang felt that the emperor made a lot of mistakes today.
Li Ji smiled and said: "The veteran thought that Jia Ping'an could go to the Western Regions to sit in charge."
In an instant, Wang Zhongliang understood.
The gentry counterattacked, and the emperor and empress were able to deal with it, but it was difficult for Jia Pingan to deal with it.
The tacit agreement between the Duke of England and the emperor was actually to let Jia Pingan avoid the whirlpool temporarily.
Wonderful!
Wang Zhongliang couldn't help scratching his head.
Li Zhi pondered, and said for a long time: "This statement is very true, and I will consider it."
This consideration is based on timing.
But sooner rather than later.
The queen is losing her temper in the bedroom.
"Who said Ping An is a traitor? Neither Your Majesty nor I have said that, but they are very good-looking!"
The empress looked cold and serious, and Shao Peng swore that he saw a murderous intention.
Li Yifu came, told the matter, and finally pleaded guilty, "Your negligence."
He lowered his head, not seeing the coldness in the queen's eyes.
A servant came in hurriedly, "Queen, Your Majesty said that someone from the Western Regions should go to sit in charge."
Wu Mei was startled, then smiled and said: "Your Majesty is indeed Your Majesty."
Shaopeng wanted to roll his eyes...the empress even sprayed a few words to His Majesty earlier.
Wu Mei rejoiced, "Is it safe? Go and find it soon."
Li Yifu went back in a hurry, and said to his confidant: "The empress still cares about Jia Ping'an, this matter must be taken seriously, just keep an eye on those ten or so people, that's all, the old man will go in person, and delete everything they wrote that is inappropriate!"
Jia Ping'an was outside the official department at the moment, holding a book in his hand, with a casual expression on his face.
"Let me ask those people, is the enlightenment book ready? If not, I have one here."
Jia Ping'an smiled very calmly.
Li Yifu heard the news and scolded: "He still dares to come... This is shameful for coming here on his own initiative! Forget it, let him come in, and the old man will go and have a look."
Because Li Yifu is in charge of the matter, those experts are concentrated in the Ministry of Officials.
At this moment, there was a lot of noise in the duty room.
"Wang Mang is a traitor, where can he be mentioned in the enlightenment book?"
"Emperor Shi Huang was violent, he should be abandoned!"
Amidst the noise, someone inadvertently glanced outside the door.
"Jia Ping'an!?"
