"In autumn and winter, the imperial court will hold performance examinations of the feudal towns to promote the talents of the shogunate officials in the feudal towns and use them for the imperial court. The situation in Hebei is so dire right now, and I don't know what will happen when the feudal town officials flood into Chang'an." Li Li Ye didn't answer Song Jiao's words, but sent out a sentence of emotion.
Song Jiao hesitated for a while, then suddenly asked: "Now that you have become an official, you are an official of the imperial court. The situation in the world has reached this point, and the chaos is not far away. As a child of the clan and in the officialdom, what are your plans for the future?"
Li Ye had thought about this question a long time ago, and when Song Jiao asked him, he didn't hide it: "In the current dynasty, the corruption of the government has been deep, and the foundation of the society has been broken. It can't be turned around by a few capable ministers. Needless to say, after all, there is something about my father, and if you stay for a long time, it will be easy to have long nights and dreams. The only way out is to send out the feudal town, serve as a Jiedu envoy, hide your strengths and bide your time to accumulate strength, and then watch the changes in the world and follow the trend."
Song Jiao pondered: "I'm afraid it will not be easy for the children of the clan to be released to the feudal town."
Li Ye smiled: "That's why I want to support Li Yan to take over the position. If my wish is fulfilled then, based on my friendship with him, it shouldn't be difficult to find an official position as Jiedushi."
What he didn't say clearly was that when Li Yan ascended the throne, Huang Chao would raise trouble in a few years. At that time, it would seem logical for him to leave the town in the name of preparing for the war against Huang Chao.
Serving as a governor of any town means one side of the princes. When Huang Chao attacked Chang'an, the situation in the world was similar to that of the eighteen princes attacking Dong Zhuo at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. when.
...
After returning to Prince An's Mansion, Shangguan Qingcheng had been guarding the concierge for the past few days when Li Ye was away, sitting at the gate of the palace. After realizing it, the gray-clothed boy and the older man with a bong hanging from his waist, namely Li Ye and Song Jiao, rushed up to greet him.
After Song Jiao entered the door, she went to the residence by herself. Shangguan Qingcheng followed behind Li Ye, and Li Ye asked her: "Is there anything important in the house these few days?"
"There are a lot of officials who came to visit. According to His Highness, it was announced that His Highness has retreated for the past few days, but nothing worth mentioning has happened. Most of those officials left congratulatory gifts and left." Shangguan Qingcheng's 1510 reply , "The prince came here, and Prince Gong also sent someone to send congratulatory gifts."
Li Ye nodded: "You have worked hard these few days."
Because it was late, Li Ye didn't take a rest. After taking off the disguise of his appearance, he washed up and ate some porridge. It was already the next moment of Yinshi.
Get in the carriage, drive out of Prince An's Mansion, and when you arrive at Chang'an Mansion, there is still a little time before Maoshi, the sky will not wake up, there are many carriages stopping at the gate from time to time, most of them are ox carts and donkey carts. When they saw Li Ye, some of them were stunned, some of them brightened, and they all gathered around to congratulate and exchange greetings. Some were polite, some pretended to be cordial, and some greeted him warmly. They were all very warm.
All of a sudden, the stars support the moon.
Some low-ranking officials or no-ranking clerks were surprised to see the important people in Chang'an Mansion surrounded by a young man, talking about it from a distance. A scribe in his early twenties Ask the people beside him: "Who is that? Why have I never seen it before? It is so grand that all the princes rushed to see the ceremony."
An elderly scribe next to him said: "Look carefully, the other party is wearing a fourth-rank official uniform. How many people in our Chang'an Mansion can wear a fourth-rank official uniform? There are only two Shaoyins. No need to worry too much." Think, this is the newly appointed Li Shaoyin, that is, His Royal Highness King An!"
"It turned out to be His Highness King An?!" The young scribe was shocked.
"You have only been in Chang'an not long ago, and you also know His Highness King An?" the old scribe asked strangely.
The young clerk became excited: "His Royal Highness King An's reputation has long been spread throughout Chang'an. Now there are rumors about His Highness everywhere in the market. How can I not know? It is said that he could not practice for twenty years, but in one day In the meantime, he was cultivating Qi and practicing Qi. It was rumored that he had just returned from Shen Yunshan and defeated the remaining party of Pang Xun who came to assassinate him... And a few days ago, when Niu Shoushan came out for an official assessment, His Highness saw through Li Guanshu at a glance. The conspiracy of framing Sanqingguan as a traitor is really a combination of wisdom and courage! Now, everyone in Chang'an City says that the tiger father has no dogs, and His Highness has the demeanor of the old King An... "
"Keep your voice down! Duke Xing died to save the clan's children. It's just rumors that he framed the Sanqing Temple. If you speak carelessly, be careful of your life!" He looked at Shao Yin in the crowd again with admiration, and said with emotion: "Youdao is three years without making a blockbuster, and Li Shaoyin has been dormant for twenty years. Isn't it true that he is going to soar into the sky?"
After saying that, the old scribe shook his head and sighed: "They are all high-ranking big shots, how can we and other small people make arbitrary judgments."
Surrounded by the crowd, Li Ye entered the official office, and after the appointment, the Governor of Chang'an met him alone.
For this third-rank official of the dynasty, Li Ye had visited him after learning that he was going to be the Shaoyin of the Chang'an Mansion, so they were no strangers to each other.
There are only so many third-rank officials in the court, and the first- and second-rank officials, such as the third master and the third prince, are mostly honorary titles in this dynasty, with names but no power. The rank is from the third grade, which is only a little worse than the third grade of Zhongshu's servants and Liubu Shangshu. It is needless to say how important it is.
Xu Shaomu, governor of Chang'an Prefecture, was originally Wei Baoheng's henchman, but Li Ye's appointment as the governor of Chang'an Prefecture was said to be hand-picked by the emperor, so Xu Shaomu didn't dare to embarrass Li Ye, and immediately explained some of Li Ye's supervisory matters.
Among them, the most important thing is the matter of the monks within the jurisdiction of Chang'an Mansion.
The two young ministers are both Fu Yin's adjutants, each in charge in name, but how much power they actually have. It is easy to be a idler. Of course, if the two young ministers have extraordinary energy, it is theoretically possible to take the governor's place, but it is extremely difficult.
Although Li Ye did not specifically manage the military and political affairs of the Six Caos, such as gong, household, law, storehouse, soldiers, and soldiers, the power of the dynasty is in the hands of monks. However, it is an indisputable fact that monks are often involved in disputes everywhere, so his power is not small.

In a word, Li Ye is destined to not be idle because of the affairs he is in charge of, but whether he is a dispensable respondent or a pivotal role can be found everywhere, it depends on himself.
It has to be said that this may also be Wei Baoheng's obstruction. On the premise of not disobeying the emperor's will, he left room for the governor to suppress Li Ye.
Li Ye was quite satisfied with this, if he was really asked to take charge of Liucao, and was busy with paperwork all day, he didn't have the energy. After all, for him, the most important thing at the moment is to help Li Yan ascend the position, and the second is to avenge Li Xian and his past life, so he doesn't have so much time to spend on copywriting.
Under Shaoyin, there were two clerks from the seventh rank who joined the army, and four from the ninth rank. Li Ye saw Xu Shaomu, accompanied by a clerk who joined the army, and began to get acquainted with the yamen.
The name of this officer who joined the army was Wang Li. He had already passed the age of not being confused, but he was still only a seventh-rank official. Under normal circumstances, he would not be able to achieve any great achievements in this life. Of course, the person Du Shaomu sent to Li Ye to familiarize Li Ye with the yamen was naturally someone he didn't like to see in the yamen.
For the rest of the day, Li Ye spent the rest of the day "going around", getting acquainted with officials at all levels in the Chang'an Mansion.
"Shao Yin, what else do you want?" After returning, Wang Li brought tea to Li Ye himself and asked with a smile on his face.
"It's okay, you can rest too." After sitting down, Li Ye took the tea and took a sip.
Standing in front of Li Ye, Wang Li rubbed his hands uncomfortably while laughing dryly, "It's a great joy for Shaoyin to take office today. After he's on duty, he'll be appointed as a host. I hope Shaoyin will do me a favor."
Li Ye raised his head and glanced at Wang Li. This man looked to be in his fifties. His face was covered with wrinkles and he looked very old. Life must have been difficult. In Chang'an, a place where every inch of land is very expensive, it is basically impossible for an unsuccessful seventh-rank official to live a prosperous life if he has no means of earning money.
Li Ye motioned for Wang Li to sit down, and chatted with him about family affairs, to get closer: "How long has Wang Canjun been in Chang'an Mansion? Who are the people in the family?"
Wang Li didn't dare to take his seat, but Li Ye couldn't hold back, so he reluctantly sat down, but only touched the corner of the chair, looking very respectful: "I have been in Chang'an Mansion for sixteen years after being a junior official and Jinshi." Speaking of this, he felt a little ashamed, It has been sixteen years and he is still only a seventh-rank official. It is simply unreasonable, "There is an old wife in the family, and two children who are not good enough."
Li Ye nodded slightly. He basically understood Wang Li's situation, and he had already outlined Wang Li's life trajectory in his heart.
Scholars in their twenties, they are naturally talented, but it is also very likely that because of this, they are arrogant. When they first came to Chang'an Mansion, they offended the superiors, so they were always excluded, and they did not know how to flatter and flatter. It has been down and out so far.
Looking at Wang Li's appearance again, his face is older than his actual age, and he doesn't have any valuable accessories on his body. Li Ye can tell at a glance that the jade pendant around his waist is just a commoner. It can be seen that even though Wang Li's life is not going well, he has never corrupted the law. Receive ill-gotten gains.
However, having not been promoted for sixteen years, it is inevitable that he will be nagged by his old wife. Now that things have happened, he may have lost his ambition long ago. He only wants to make his life better and not suffer for his old wife and children.
Seeing Li Ye come to work in Chang'an Mansion now, to Wang Li, he is no different than a lucky star, so naturally he has to curry favor in every possible way, but judging by his curry behavior, it is quite unfamiliar, so it can be seen that he has basically never done this kind of thing before. Pass.
In short, this Wang Li, young and ambitious, old and sad, good-natured, just doesn't know how much talent he has left.
Li Ye intends to investigate Wang Li. After all, this Chang'an mansion is the Chang'an mansion of Du Shaomu and Wei Baoheng. If he wants to hang around here, he has to gather some people who are not close to Du Shaomu and cultivate them into his own power, but at this moment , Someone outside hurriedly came to report: "There are monks making trouble in Kangfufang!"
There are many brothels in Kangfufang, and there are always disputes in this kind of place. It is not uncommon for monks to make troubles. Li Ye didn't say much, took Wang Li with him, called a few yamen servants, and rushed to Kangfufang.
Arriving at Kangfufang, in front of a brothel named Xiangling Pavilion, Li Ye was slightly taken aback when he saw the troublemakers surrounded by the crowd.
Isn't that arrogant and domineering Young Master, pointing at others' noses and scolding endlessly, not Li Yao, the son of Duke Xing
