After Liu Heng left, Kou Ji stayed in the house and did not go out.
Kou Zhun let someone push himself out, saying that he was going to visit Li Di, and they let Kou Ji know.
Kou Zhun left without returning overnight.
I don't know what he talked with Li Di, anyway, at noon the next day, Kou Zhun took the Kou bus and swayed back to the house.
As soon as he returned to the mansion, he sent his servant to call Kou Ji over.
When Kou Ji arrived in Kou Zhun's bedroom, Kou Zhun was sitting at the table eating.
Two dishes and one soup, the dishes are the new stir-fried dishes in Bianjing.
Kou Zhun prefers steamed food to stir-fried dishes, but Kou Ji likes to eat stir-fried dishes. He also often tries stir-fried dishes, but will not eat more.
Kou Ji entered the bedroom. After the ceremony, Kou Zhun signaled him and sat opposite him.
Kou Ji asked suspiciously, "Grandfather, you stayed at Grandpa Li's mansion all night, and Grandpa Li didn't take care of a meal for you?"
Kou Zhun glared at Kou Ji, didn't speak, still sullen his head to eat.
It's the rule to not eat and sleep or sleep.
Kou Ji rarely ate at the same table with Kou Zhun on weekdays, so he didn't take this rule to heart.
After Kou Zhun had enough food and drink, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and let people remove the leftovers from the table before he said: "The court has dealt with Li Di..."
Kou Ji raised his eyebrows and asked, "How did Liu E deal with Grandpa Li?"
Kou Zhun sighed and said: "Liu E gave up Li Di's political affairs, and changed his post as Shangshu..."
Kou Ji almost jumped up when he heard the words.
The position of Shangshu in the Household Department is the most difficult position in Kou Ji's plan.
But I didn't expect it to be delivered so easily.
How could he be unhappy
However, Kou Zhun's next words instantly made Kou Ji's smile froze on his face.
"Li Di didn't accept the position of Shangshu in the Household Department. He decided to resign..."
Kou Zhun said helplessly.
Kou Ji said anxiously: "Grandpa Li shouldn't compromise with Liu E so easily. This will only fuel Liu E's arrogance."
Kou Zhun sighed heavily and said, "That's what the old man said to Li Di, but Li Di has decided to leave, and the old man can't stop him."
Kou Zhun's tone was full of helplessness. Obviously, he had tried to persuade Li Di.
But Li Di obviously didn't listen to his advice.
Zhao Heng's rebellious actions obviously hurt Li Di a lot.
Li Di has no intention of staying in the court, and has no intention of loyalty to Zhao Heng anymore.
Kou Ji hurriedly rubbed his hands and shouted, "Grandpa Li is evasive, cowardly..."
Kou Zhun rolled his eyes and said angrily: "If you want to shout, you should shout at Li Di, what should you shout at the old man."
Kou Ji stomped his feet, gritted his teeth and said: "I'll go to Li Mansion and see Grandpa Li..."
Kou Zhun curled his lips and said, "The old man has been with Li Di for many years, but the old man can't persuade him. Can you persuade him?"
Although Kou Zhun said frustrating words, he did not prevent Kou Ji from going to Li Mansion.
After Kou Ji gave a salute to Kou Zhun, he left the yard and went straight to the outside of the house.
Then he hurried to Li Mansion all the way.
People gathered in front of Li's house, and they all seemed to come to visit Li Di.
Kou Ji unexpectedly found someone from Ding's house inside.
I don't know what Ding Wei's intention is to send someone from the mansion over at this time.
Kou Ji didn't think about it. When he reached the door of Li Mansion, he saw the door of Li Mansion, his face was sad to deal with the officials who came to visit.
"My sirs, please go back. My master said, no guests."
"..."
"The villain is for my lord, thank you all for your care, the lord is in good health, and has no worries about his life..."
"..."
"My master said, he has made up his mind, you don't need to go in and advise..."
"..."
When someone asks, the door will answer.
It's just that his answer was obviously not what the officials wanted, and he refused to let those officials in. Those officials could only stay in front of the Li Mansion gate and refused to leave for a long time.
Kou Ji squeezed the crowd and walked to the front of Li's mansion.
When the officials saw Kou Ji, they all praised him.
Most of them praised his filial piety, made Kou Bus, and respected Kou Zhun.
After the compliments, the officials pulled him and asked him to find a way to bring them into the Li Mansion.
Kou Ji smiled and responded to them, but did not agree to their request.
Menzi met Kou Ji and greeted him with a bitter expression.
"Master Kou, are you here too?"
Kou Ji was taken aback, and said in doubt: "Listening to your tone, it seems that you don't welcome me?"
The door said awkwardly: "The master specially told me that if you come to visit, let the little people beat you out."
Kou Ji's face turned dark when he heard the words, "I didn't do anything to apologize to Li Mansion. Why did Grandpa Li treat me like this?"
The door glanced at Kou Ji and said dryly: "The villain doesn't know."
Kou Ji stared, "If I forcibly broke in, would you slap me with a stick?"
The door was taken aback, shaking his head and said: "The little people dare not..."
Hearing this, Kou Ji didn't hesitate, and stepped into Li Mansion.
The door stared blankly at the villain Kou Ji, but he didn't react for a while.
When Kou Ji was about to disappear at the door, he screamed, "Quick! Stop Young Master Kou!"
The guards at the gate chased up with clubs.
But after chasing to the entrance of the main hall, it stopped.
The middle yard behind the main hall, and the back yard, are not places where they can get involved.
Kou Ji had no such worries. He went all the way through the main hall and middle courtyard to the backyard.
backyard.
Li Di lay alone on the soft couch, like a walking corpse, motionless, his eyes looking up at the sky blankly.
Beside him, there is a woman standing, and the woman is looking at him worriedly.
Kou Ji broke into the backyard and alarmed the woman.
The woman withdrew her gaze from Li Di, a look of displeasure flashed across her face.
Just now, she specifically urged the people in the house not to enter the backyard and disturb Li Di.
Unexpectedly, someone would dare to break in.
"Who?!"
The woman asked harshly.
When she saw Kou Ji, she slowly put away her anger.
Kou Ji arched his hand and said: "Kid Kou Ji is polite... The kid came to visit Grandpa Li specially, and the door of the house prevented him from entering, so the kid rushed in."
The woman glanced up and down at Kou Ji, then slowly nodded, "Kou Mansion boy... I have been listening to people mentioning your name, but I have never seen it before."
Kou Ji said embarrassingly: "As a junior, he hasn't been to the house to pay a visit. It's the kid being rude."
The woman was taken aback, and sighed: "The old man didn't mean to blame you. The old man means..."
Before the woman finished her words, Li Di, who was lying on the soft couch, suddenly turned his head, patted the curved armrest on the edge of the soft couch, and said angrily: "What can I say to him! Give the old man a blow to him." Get out!"
Kou Ji was stunned when he heard the words.
The woman said to Kou Ji in embarrassment, "He has been like this since he returned to the house yesterday, and he doesn't look good to anyone."
The woman explained to Kou Ji, then turned around and whispered in a gentle voice: "Kou kid is a junior, the junior cares about you, come and see you, you give the junior a face, and who will dare to be close to you in the future? "
"The old man doesn't get close to him..."
The woman rolled her eyes and complained: "Speaking of which, Kou also has a life-saving grace to our Li family, so can't you be polite to Kou?"
The woman didn’t mention this. When mentioning this, Li Di suddenly stared and said angrily: "A life-saving grace? What kind of life-saving grace? If it weren’t for the old man he had gotten full of blood, the old man would have a black mouth on his back. Is the prime minister's name?"
The woman said in a huff: "Kou kid was worried that your mouth was in trouble, so he covered your mouth. If he didn't cover your mouth, you might have to say something violent. By that time, the whole Li Mansion Everyone has to be buried with you."
Li Di gritted his teeth and said, "I might as well die..."
The woman was about to open her mouth.
Kou Ji suddenly said, "Grandpa Li remembers the story of Xue Mansion?"
Li Di was taken aback, frowned and said: "Xue Mansion, that Xue Mansion?"
Kou Ji said: "Wen Hui Gong... Xue Juzheng..."
Li Di stared at Kou Ji without saying a word.
Kou Ji specifically mentioned Xue Juzheng here, and Li Di understood what it meant in an instant.
In the past years, after Xue Juzheng died of illness, his adopted son also died not long after.
The then prime minister Xiang Minzhong and Zhang Qixian were fighting to marry the widow of Xue Mansion.
This matter was passed on as a laughingstock by the common people, and it is still chanted in the city of Bianjing today.
Kou Ji was passing this incident to remind him.
If he dies, Li's family members, I am afraid it will not end well.
Seeing that Li Di didn't say a word, Kou Ji handed over and said, "You always want to die, but have you ever thought about how Li Family's family members will be bullied?"
Li Di said angrily: "They dare!"
Kou Jishi smiled and said: "You know the temperament of those colleagues in the DPRK, you know better than me. There is nothing they dare not afraid of."
Li Di said angrily: "If they really dare to do this, even if the old man crawls out of the coffin, he will strangle them to death."
Kou Ji said with a weird expression: "If you die... can you really get out of the coffin?"
Obviously not...
Li Di angrily swept a sleeve of the short thing on the edge of his soft couch to the ground.
"You go to the old man!"
Kou Ji opened his mouth to speak, thought about it carefully, closed his mouth again, arched his hands, and prepared to leave.
After just two steps, I heard Li Di yell: "You get the old man back!"
Kou Ji grinned.
He put away his smiling face, turned around, and said, "What does Grandpa Li have to order?"
Li Di snorted coldly, "According to you, can't the old man die anymore?"
Kou Ji nodded seriously, "At least not now..."
Li Di squinted and asked, "Why can't it now?"
Kou Ji said frankly: "You still have important things to do."
Li Di sneered: "The old man is about to become an idler in the countryside, so what big things can he do."
Kou Ji murmured: "The court did not kill you to the end, you can go to the household..."
Li Di disdainfully said: "The old man is no longer in the mood, so he can do more for the court."
Kou Ji hurriedly said, "Does the court need you?"
Li Di laughed loudly and said, "The court needs an old man? Are you telling a joke with the old man? Hahahaha... You laughed at the old man..."
Kou Ji looked at Li Di awkwardly and laughed.
After laughing for a long time, Li Di suddenly closed his smiley face, looked at Kou Ji suddenly, and questioned: "The court doesn't need an old man at all. If the court really needs an old man, the official will not treat him like that. You need an old man, right? ?"
Kou Ji hesitated and nodded.
Li Di said coldly: "The old man is not afraid to tell you the truth. The old man is not in the mood to stay in the court anymore, let alone see those disgusting faces. Because every time I go to the court, every time I see those disgusting faces, The old man feels sick!"
Kou Ji was silent for a moment, and solemnly said: "I also feel sick when I look at them."
Li Di was taken aback, and said jokingly: "Then you still come to the old man and talk about it, want him to stay in the court?"
Kou Ji said solemnly: "Grandpa Li, you only think about yourself for a while, but have you ever thought about the people of the Li people who have been blessed by you for decades?"
Li Di stared at Kou Ji with a smile, and said quietly: "Are you going to use that set of rhetoric about fooling your grandfather to fool the old man?"
Kou Ji frowned and said: "What's the rhetoric?"
Li Di hummed: "Being loyal to the king, or loyal to the people..."
Kou Ji stunned: "My grandfather even told you this?"
Li Di curled his lips and said, "Your grandfather used these words to persuade the old man last night. The old man concluded at the time that these words were not understood by your grandfather. Only after the old man asked repeatedly, did your grandfather tell the truth. you said."
Kou Ji pondered for a while and asked, "Isn't I right?"
Li Di nodded and said, "You are right. If you can realize these words at this age, you will be promoted to the position in the future, and the power you hold will be greater, and the people will be blessed."
After a pause, Li Di looked at Kou Ji and said, "But... all this has nothing to do with the old man. The old man has decided his mind and no one can change it."
Kou Ji said solemnly: "Do you have to resign?"
Li Di mocked: "How about not resigning? Go allegiance to a rebellious emperor?"
Kou Ji hesitated again and again, gritted his teeth and said: "The one who turned back, won't live long."
The woman quietly left the backyard when Li Di called Kou Ji.
So there are only two of them here, so there is no need to hesitate to speak.
Li Di raised his voice a few times, and said with disdain: "So what? Even if he is dead now, he can't change the old man's mind. The old man definitely won't defend the situation for someone who has turned his back."
Kou Ji asked, "What about Zhao Zhen? You taught him for many years, and watched him being bullied?"
Before Li Di could answer, Kou Ji asked again: "And my grandfather, once you leave the court, my grandfather will definitely be attacked by Liu E and Ding Wei. It is hard to say whether he will survive by then.
There are also several uncles of the Li family who are officials in the dynasty.
If you leave the court, they will definitely be suppressed by Liu E and Ding Wei.
Maybe it will be distributed to Salmon Island by the whole family.
Have you ignored these? "
