The favorite wife of the black-bellied prime minister

Chapter 109 The Master of Ceremonies (3)
After Yang Hong's remarks, although he did not mention the names of Li Guojiu or Li Shu, it was like a slap in the face of Li Guojiu. There are many disciples of Li Guojiu in the court. People dared to be the first bird when the old minister Yang Hong played, so the court was silent, waiting for Emperor Jing Yuan's reaction.

When Emperor Jing Yuan was the prince, he was notoriously a dandy, ignorant and incompetent, he was most concerned about the ritual and music workshop. When the first emperor was in power, he was demoted to the North County Mansion because of his enthusiasm for the teaching workshop. His Royal Highness's biological mother, Li Guifei, was born in a music theater.

After Emperor Jingyuan ascended the throne, famous opera troupes from various prefectures and counties of Daxing Kingdom came to Beijing in an endless stream to sing operas for him in the palace. In the past 17 years, the status of folk opera actors has changed greatly compared with the previous dynasty. If they sing well, they will become The corner will be greatly sought after by the people.

However, in the eyes of Yang Hong and other well-behaved Confucian scholars, opera opera is still regarded as an unpopular thing. If the monarch indulges in it for a long time, it will only bring disaster to the country and the people. Therefore, the differences between the monarch and his ministers are getting deeper and deeper.

Everyone was waiting for Emperor Jing Yuan to get angry, but they didn't expect him to smile calmly, and said: "Master Yang's words are very true, for the country and the people, I am very pleased. Gao Xian, write it down, reward Master Yang is ten thousand taels of silver. I am a little hungry, so let’s retreat.”

After finishing speaking, Emperor Jing Yuan stood up and left the throne, Yang Hong was already prepared for the worst punishment, Zuo only remonstrated with death, unexpectedly His Majesty made such a move, just as he was about to speak again, Gao Xian had already opened his throat in front of the throne Said: "Back—towards—"

All the ministers had no choice but to kneel down in response: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

When Yang Hong and the others stood up again, Emperor Jing Yuan was no longer in the hall, so Yang Hong could only sigh heavily. A short and fat figure in a first-grade civil official uniform walked over swaggeringly, his small eyes squinted into a small slit Between the gaps, he smiled tepidly: "The old man is really envious of Mr. Yang. You can get ten thousand taels of silver just by saying something casually. Your Majesty is Jinkou, Mr. Yang, you are silver mouth?"

Yang Hong snorted and turned his eyes away, not wanting to look at him at all.

Uncle Li Guo was still laughing in his ear: "Lord Yang, those who know the current affairs are outstanding, you should stop worrying about it!"

When Li Shu heard the word "retire from court", he seemed to have been released after serving his sentence, his legs were limp and trembling. He was so trembling on the first day he went to court, why would he be scared to death in the future?How many guts does he have enough to make a fuss about?But the old man in his family wanted to ask the imperial concubine to ask His Majesty for the positions of the two divisions. I don't know which muscle was wrong. It was not for his future at all, it was clearly for his life!

Several disciples of Uncle Li Guo came over to congratulate Li Shu, Li Shu didn't even remember their names and faces, he just bowed his hands in thanks, smiling all over his face, when Situ He walked past him, Li Shu grabbed him , approached him and whispered: "Hey, I don't think this is a good thing!"

Situ He looked at Li Shu's court clothes, and asked casually, "What's wrong? This job is not bad. You can sing opera, but also have a half-job. You have the best of both worlds."

"Hiss, I can't tell..." Li Shu rubbed his chin, stepped out of the threshold with Situ He, and said in a low voice, "The way Gao Xian looked at me just now was not quite right, I was thinking, since Fa Hua I didn’t meet him after that day, could it be that he was called an eunuch in a dream, he had a telepathy and kept it in his heart? Today, the court came here to stare at you?”

Situ He never felt that Li Shu was serious, so he seldom took it to heart. What he was thinking about now was only the Cuju competition three days later.

Just after leaving the threshold of the Xuanzheng Palace, I saw Eunuch Fu from Weiyang Palace waiting there, looking at me with a smile on his face.Situ He raised his foot and walked over, turned around and waved to Li Shu: "My aunt is looking for me, you go first."

Li Shu didn't take a good look at the road, and almost bumped into the red-painted pillar. He cursed Situ He bitterly, and when he looked up, he saw Han Ye walking in front.If it wasn't for the court, Li Shu has always been quite capable of messing around, and he can get acquainted with everyone he sees. Leaving aside the grievances between Jing Xiaobai and Han Ye, he is also his cousin-in-law, and it is appropriate to say hello.

"Cousin-in-law." Li Shu thought about it, and called it out.

When Han Ye heard this, he turned his head, his face like a jade crown was neither sad nor happy, he slightly bent his lips, and said with a smile: "Cousin Shu, congratulations on entering the court."

When mentioning the matter of becoming an official in the court, Li Shu felt a little uncomfortable and panicked. Moreover, as soon as Han Ye spoke, Li Shu remembered that he had always thought that Han Ye was not easy to get along with.

After all, Situ He and Jing Xiaobai grew up together with him. He knew everything about their virtues and details when they were young. Now it doesn't matter if they speak without boundary or immorality. No one will take it seriously.

On the other hand, Han Ye, the sweetheart brought back by Jing Xiaobai last year, was dragged by her to swagger through the market. Others may not know it, but they are tired of looking at it.Li Shu met Han Ye before Situ He, so before Situ He returned to Beijing to report on his work, he gloated and wondered how he would react if he met Han Ye.In the end, the reaction was big enough, and the dignified General Zheng Beida wished he could get drunk before giving up.

Two months ago, Han Ye suddenly changed his identity, and had a quarrel with Jing Xiaobai. Although Li Shu didn't really understand the reason, subconsciously, he really didn't like seeing Han Ye very much.

Although Li Shu's outlook on life is to eat, drink, and have fun, there are also principles in this game. Even if you want to do such a thing, you have to do it openly, and you can't wrong the girl, so you can get together and relax. It's the last word, isn't it?
"Hey, we're happy together!" Li Shu cupped his hands, and started talking to him in a bureaucratic tone.

There seemed to be nothing else to say.

Li Shu kept smiling and asked, "Where is my cousin-in-law going?"

Han Ye's starry eyes were calm and unwavering, and he responded lightly: "The Ministry of Rites can't help, so I just wanted to get off and walk around, or go to drink."

Li Shu has always speculated more about men's psychology than women, Han Ye is so outspoken, Li Shu somehow felt that there was a little bit of loneliness in his answer, but this loneliness disappeared very quickly, fleeting, It makes people want to catch it but can't catch it.

Li Shu smiled and said, "I'm also very busy with my job, but you have seen my cousin, it's the first time I went to the court, and before the new official took office, I was read a book in front of the Holy One. If it continues like this , I'm afraid the black hat on my head will be lost soon. But it's okay if I don't, I don't have to get up so early to rush to court..."

As he spoke, he yawned.

Han Ye's faint smile seemed to grow on his face, and it hadn't changed. He was also handsome and handsome when he was wearing court clothes, which was several blocks away from Li Shu.Suddenly, Han Yeyao pointed to the front and said, "Cousin Shu, that father-in-law seems to be waiting for you."

Li Shu followed his fingers to look over, and saw a eunuch standing there, and he immediately said "Oh": "Yes! Yes! Yes! He came to look for me. The former bell and drum division took me to the newly established eunuch. Take a look at Yisi." As he spoke, he quickened his pace and went down the steps: "Cousin-in-law, brother-in-law, let's go ahead and talk about it later."
