This secret report had just been delivered, and His Majesty Li Er hadn't planned to read it during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but after Li Yuanying made such a fuss, he opened it and read it.
The content of the secret report was very simple, it was what Zhang Liang and Hou Junji were doing.
Zhang Liang reported on Hou Junji, but he didn't pursue it, but he didn't do nothing. He kept telling people to watch Hou Junji, Hou Junji was dissatisfied, Hou Junji tried to contact the prince through his son-in-law Helan Chushi, and Hou Junji made a slip of the tongue after drinking.
His Majesty Li Er naturally knew that Li Yuanying had caught Hou Junji talking drunk with Helan Chushi, and wondered if Li Yuanying would come and talk to him. Unexpectedly, Li Yuanying came here, but the one mentioned was not Hou Junji, but Zhang Liang.
So this secret report that was regularly sent to His Majesty Li Er's case and only related to Hou Junji added someone.
Zhang Liang raised a sorcerer and adopted a foster son, all of which were almost the same as what Li Yuanying reported.
These two people are the twenty-four hero candidates selected by him personally, as long as they don't make the next move, he won't do anything to them. If they really dare to make the next move, let him see how many people these two lines can pull out!
…
On the other side, Li Yuanying went back dejectedly, accompanied by two guards from His Majesty Li Er who came to watch him.
Li Yuanying hadn't enjoyed this treatment for a long time, which made him feel very humiliated and depressed. As a result, as soon as he walked back to his residence, Li Yuanying smelled a fragrant smell coming from inside.
Li Yuanying sniffed, and the depression of being punished and grounded all of a sudden disappeared. He happily ran in to find Liu Baolin and asked, "What are you eating today? I smelled it from a long way away. It smells good."
Liu Baolin said: "I'm going to make crabs, so I warmed the chrysanthemum wine for you first." Although we haven't arrived at Chongyang, but it's near, Liu Baolin unsealed the brewed chrysanthemum wine. This wine is rice wine, but with the addition of chrysanthemums, which are fragrant and calming, the taste is warm and mellow, which is suitable for eating with autumn crabs. Liu Baolin warned, "You can't eat too much crab after it's steamed, don't eat it and ruin your stomach."
Li Yuanying said: "I know." He is so old, Liu Baolin still treats him as a child, is he a greedy person!
The best way to eat crabs is to steam them right away. Liu Baolin asked someone to cook them when he saw him back. The nurse next to him told Li Yuanying about Liu Baolin's good intentions, and said that these crabs had been delivered early, and Liu Baolin had been carefully raising them, waiting for Li Yuanying to come back and try them out.
Crabs are troublesome to eat. There are not many people selling crabs in the market, and people in the palace don't like to eat them very much. Fortunately, Fengtai Building has seasonal shrimps, crabs, vegetables and fruits all year round. Liu Baolin asked someone to pick a batch and send them in to wait for Li Yuanying to cook and eat when he came back.
Li Yuanying didn't mind the trouble if he had something to eat, for a moment he forgot the task His Majesty Li Er had given him, and watched Liu Baolin make dipping sauce for him with great interest. The dipping sauce is mainly orange puree with ginger vinegar. The orange is also newly released recently. It looks round and yellow, very cute.
Li Yuanying volunteered to help, and sat next to Liu Baolin to help her open oranges. Liu Baolin let him come over, instructing him to dig out the orange flesh and gently mash it with fine salt. Li Yuanying was not capable of those delicate tasks later on. He sat aside and watched Liu Baolin tidy up all the dipping materials, and suddenly sighed.
Liu Baolin asked him: "What's wrong?"
Li Yuanying said: "Brother Yang asked me to go to the fief today, but he still won't let me go." He felt that His Majesty Li Er was really strange, he wouldn't let anyone who wanted to go, and he wouldn't stay if he didn't want to. Li Yuanying sighed, "I heard from the pheasant slave that Tengzhou is closer to the sea, and the crabs there must be fatter. I just don't know if the oranges over there are good, and whether the orange puree they make is as fragrant as it is!"
Liu Baolin also wanted to go to the fiefdom, so he stopped and sighed when he heard the words. His son knew that he was not someone who could take anger, and whoever made him uncomfortable would definitely make the other person even more uncomfortable.
It is too dangerous to stay in Chang'an with such a temperament, after all, he is growing up day by day, and he can no longer use his young age as an excuse.
But His Majesty Li Er didn't let him go, and the mother and son couldn't think of any good way.
Liu Baolin could only comfort Li Yuanying: "Don't worry, the saint probably wants to wait for you to come out of the Imperial College before thinking about it."
Li Yuanying thought so too. He discussed with Liu Baolin: "After Xiumu returns this time, the Imperial College will take an exam, which is similar to the Qiu Wei outside. If you pass the exam, you will be able to participate in next year's Chun Wei. I want to take the exam. After the exam, you don't need to go to the Imperial College! "
Liu Baolin said: "Are you sure?"
Li Yuanying said: "If you don't want to take the first exam, it won't be difficult if you want to pass the exam."
Since the article often jumps back and forth between the first class and the last class, Li Yuanying gradually figured out some ways. As long as he hides his little tail, it is still possible to get away with it.
This was Li Yuanying's temporary idea, and he hasn't discussed it with Wei Shu and the others yet. The main reason is that he has played enough of what he can play in the Guozijian, and there is really no need to stay in it. As for getting the first place in the exam, Li Yuanying never thought about it, anyway, if he can pass the exam, he will be fine!
As for next year's Chunwei, Li Yuanying felt that he was a little bit sure that it should not be a problem to be a Jinshi.
The more Li Yuanying thought about it, the more feasible it became. After discussing it with Liu Baolin for a while, the mother and son ate the freshly steamed autumn crab together.
The chrysanthemum wine smelled just right, and as soon as it was poured into the glass, the aroma of the wine immediately filled the room. Autumn crabs are plump, Li Yuanying didn't ask others to help peel the crabs, he opened the crabs himself, and saw that the crab meat was plump and tender, dipped in the sweet and fragrant orange puree, it didn't smell fishy, it was so delicious.
Li Yuanying ate one after another contentedly, and finally found that the good ones didn't work, and his stomach really hurt a little!
Liu Baolin was quite happy to see him eat well, but when he heard that his stomach hurts, he became anxious and hurriedly sent someone to invite the imperial physician.
There is a lot of movement about inviting the imperial physician back and forth, and many people have heard of it. When the imperial physician went back to inquire with his colleagues, the imperial physician said helplessly: "I have eaten too much crab, and I am full." He wanted to get some medicine for Li Yuanying to digest, but when Li Yuanying heard that he was full, he refused to drink He refuted the prescription he prescribed, saying that the medicine was three-point poisonous, and he resolutely refused to take the medicine if he had nothing to do!
I have studied medicine with Mr. Sun, so why do you still seek the imperial doctor? Waste of other people's time!
The imperial physician snorted coldly, and did not cover up for Li Yuanying at all, and widely publicized the fact that Li Yuanying was so greedy that he ate himself up.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Sizi and the others went to accompany His Majesty Li Er to have dinner. Hearing Li Er Majesty said that Li Yuanying was too full to eat, they immediately ran hand in hand to condolence to Uncle Yao.
Li Yuanying saw a few little lolitas running over to care about him with worried faces, and immediately understood what it means to stay away for good deeds and travel thousands of miles for bad deeds. Didn't he just eat a few more autumn crabs? ! Li Yuanying said firmly, "Uncle Yao is fine!"
After a while, Li Xiang and Li Xiaoyuanqiu also ran over, Li Xiang took his hand and said, "Yaoyao! Yeah, I said you eat badly, so you can't eat more next time!"
Li Xiaoyuan also came to the palace to celebrate the festival, and nodded seriously after listening to Li Xiang's words: "No! You are not good!"
Li Yuanying was all well at first, but when he saw that everyone was so neat, he rolled his eyes and half-lyed on the couch, saying that he was very weak and needed someone to take care of him, and ordered this one to tell him a story, another one to pour him water, and another one to warm himself up Putting a towel on his forehead, he happily played a doctor-patient game.
A group of little radish heads were in high spirits, and they were all driven around by Li Yuanying. Li Yuanying soon recovered from his serious illness and took them to Gaoyang to watch the moon.
The high star tower is a good place to enjoy the moon. Li Yuanying took a bunch of radish heads to the tower to look from a distance, and saw that the night was coming, and a full moon rose from the sky, big and round, bright and lovely. The lights of the entire Chang'an city could not suppress the brilliance of the full moon, and the earth was shrouded in a gentle moonlight, appearing quiet and beautiful.
Li Yuanying hugged Li Xiaoyuan, who was the shortest, so that he could follow the moon. Li Xiaoyuan pointed to the moon and said, "Yaoyao, today's moon is so big!"
Li Yuanying nodded.
Li Xiaoyuan withdrew his hand, hugged Li Yuanying's neck, and said seriously: "Yaoyao, I'm going to Xiangzhou. Yeah, I'm in Xiangzhou. I'm going." The emperor's grandfather asked him if he wanted to go to Yeye. He was reluctant to part with Li Xiang and Yaoyao, but he also wanted to go to Yeye. He and Yeye were a family and wanted to go to Yeye.
Li Yuanying said: "Well, the family should be together, and then I will go to Xiangzhou to play with you."
Li Xiaoyuanqiu was happy and wanted to hook up with Li Yuanying.
Li Yuanying took the little radish heads to have a good time and went back to their residences. It was only when Li Yuanying was about to go to bed that he remembered that he hadn't written his introspection book yet, if he didn't write it out quickly, he would have to be confined in the palace all the time! Li Yuanying sat up abruptly, put on his clothes and ran to his small study to prepare for the night battle.
As soon as Li Yuanying made any movement, the servants would of course have to wake up. The two little maids in charge of the small study lighted the lamps for Li Yuanying swiftly, and asked, "Is there anything urgent, Your Highness?"
Li Yuanying saw that these two little maids looked familiar, weren't they the two who helped him dig lotus roots? Li Yuanying said: "Are you twins? Who is older and who is younger?"
The two little maids in the palace were lively and reported their names. One was called Huang Ying and the other was called Huang Oriole, both of which were birds that could sing. They were born on the same day, so it's not easy to recognize, but Huang Ying is left-handed, Huang Li is not, just look at which hand they usually use to know.
The two little maids chattered as soon as they opened their mouths, and the two of them talked about the excitement of several people in a daze. Li Yuanying felt that their names were quite appropriate. He said: "I want to write an article, you should go outside for a while, and I will call you again if there is something to do."
Huang Ying or Huang Oriole should be well-behaved. She made tea and ground ink for him and then retreated.
Li Yuanying wrote out what he thought was the perfect defense overnight and sent it to His Majesty Li Er, but his Majesty Li Er only glanced at it a few times and called back mercilessly for him to rewrite.
Li Yuanying felt that His Majesty Li Er was deliberately embarrassing him, so he went to Wei Zheng angrily with his "reflection" argument, and asked Wei Zheng where his writing was not good. Did His Majesty Li Er not allow him to leave the palace on purpose
When Wei Zheng heard that His Majesty Li Er asked him to write a booklet for self-reflection, his face turned pale, and he took the booklet to help him read.
After reading two passages, Wei Zheng slammed the notebook back in front of Li Yuanying, telling him to get lost.
Li Yuanying rolled away dejectedly, and sighed as he looked at the scriptures he had worked so hard to write. He was just embellishing and embellishing his rhetoric yesterday, why let him go out one or two
Li Yuanying pondered for a long time, but couldn't figure out why, so he went around to the Hongwen Hall in the East Palace to look for Xiao Deyan.
To write this kind of propositional composition, the most important thing is to find out the mind of the person who wrote the question. Li Yuanying really doesn't know what kind of essay His Majesty Li Er wants. Could it be that if the article is well written, then the censor will not bear any grudges against him
Li Yuanying easily slipped to Xiao Deyan's side and made tea for Xiao Deyan himself.
The news from the East Palace was better than the outside world, and Xiao Deyan also heard what Li Yuanying did. He cared: "Your Highness, do you have something to ask?"
Li Yuanying was putting tea powder into the water. Hearing Xiao Deyan's question, he paused, and said sullenly, "I haven't decided what to ask." In the past, he didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to eat and drink well every day , the day will be extremely happy. In the past two years, he has seen a lot, thought a lot, wanted to do, and tried to do a lot, and he felt something trapped around him.
That thing has no form or shape, but it is extremely hateful, and it follows it everywhere. He wanted to break free, but he didn't know where to start, because he found that even his brother couldn't be truly free. On the contrary, he felt that his brother was trapped even tighter!
He doesn't like this feeling, so he doesn't want to play with these people anymore, he just wants to go to the fief and be a happy prince.
But inexplicably, he felt that going to the fief might not be able to fulfill his wish.
Li Yuanying thought about it, but still couldn't figure it out. He shared a cup of tea with Xiao Deyan, and talked about his inexplicable feeling of being trapped with Xiao Deyan.
Xiao Deyan did not expect that Li Yuanying not only did not mention the dispute with the censor, but asked such a question instead. He was silent for a moment before replying: "People live in this world, they have gains and losses, and they have to give up. It is impossible for everything to be satisfactory." Xiao Deyan said slowly, "There is not much energy in this world. Reckless people, it's just that they were born with parents and teachers who told them that what they did was right, what they said was right, and that's how they lived. All Everyone takes it for granted.”
Li Yuanying remained silent.
When he wrote an article saying that women can also take part in the imperial examination, Dr. Ma said that "this has been the case since ancient times".
Xiao De said: "You are different, you have not been restrained, so whenever someone wants to put a condom on you, you can feel it."
Li Yuanying said: "Is it like the kind of cover you put on a cow?"
Xiao Deyan nodded in affirmation.
Li Yuanying calmed down, he understood a little bit.
He has seen people domesticate cattle in Hu County. When farming, they put bamboo or hemp rope covers on their mouths to prevent them from chewing grass. They will also have a hole in their nose and wear a nose ring. It is said that the cow’s nose is most afraid of pain. Disobey the order!
This is true of cattle, and so is human beings.
Everyone has such a cover. When they see someone is different, they will use what they think is right to demand others, and they will want to make that different person the same as themselves until the other person puts on the cover obediently. , Obey the command, they feel that the world is peaceful.
Li Yuanying said: "I don't like it."
Xiao Deyan looked at him warmly: "No one likes it."
But no one can change all this.
It is easy to change one person's mind, but it is too difficult to change everyone's mind.
Li Yuanying felt that this was really sad.
"Anyway, I don't like it," he said.
Nobody wants him to get into the trap!
