My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty

Shangguanyi's face was cloudy and cloudy. He didn't understand his position in Li Chengqian's heart. He studied hard for ten years, only to be named on the gold list for one day, and to get an official career to show off his ambitions. But since he joined the East Palace, Li Chengqian let him do it. What happened? Either he was asked to recite poems for fun at the banquet, or he was asked to write articles for him to plagiarize, and later he was asked to pretend to be a scholar and enter the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce. When he remembered, he called him to the East Palace to ask about the situation of the newspaper office. It's the same as there is no such person in the East Palace.

The change in the expression on Shangguanyi's face was enough to reflect his inner struggle, Li Yin was secretly delighted, everyone in this world is an adulterer, as long as there is an adulterer, there will be loopholes in this person's psychology, and the businessman can lure him if he is happy Eli, if a scholar has a good name, he can be lured to use his name, and for the counselors who have the world in mind, the biggest reward for them is to allow them to display their talents.

  Li Yan's tone changed from stern to gentle, "I know that you are someone close to the prince, but I still brought you to Yizhou. Do you know why?"

  Shangguanyi looked up at Li Yin and shook his head.

   "Because I need a capable official who can help me govern Yizhou, because I don't want to see a person who governs the world buried in a small newspaper office."

"Your Highness has a high opinion of Shangguanyi, and this subject is just a scribe!" Shangguanyi's gaze calmed down. Li Yin's words were indeed a great temptation to him, but a virtuous minister does not care about the Confucianism of the two masters. Thoughts still let him calm down.

   Li Yin was a little disappointed, his strategy failed? Staring into Shangguanyi's eyes, Li Yin saw a special light, and he said, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

   "Then I have to thank Your Highness for fulfilling my reputation of loyalty and leaving my name in history!" Shangguanyi's expression did not change.

  Qin Huaiyu was already furious, "Then I'll kill your secret agent for Your Highness!" After finishing speaking, he raised his knife and swung at Shang Guanyi.

"Slow!" Just as Qin Huaiyu's blade was in mid-air, a clear voice came from the door, but it was Cui Yingying standing at the door with a smile on her face, and said: "Scholars are not afraid of death, so how can you be afraid of it? Your Highness, Shangguanyi is A true Confucian scholar!"

  Li Yin was not happy at first, this little girl was still speaking for Shangguanyi, Li Yin glared at her, and said: "Yingying, what are you messing around with!"

  Cui Yingying shot back Li Yin's eyes, walked up to Shangguanyi and said, "I haven't finished my words yet! It's a pity that I'm a rotten scholar!"

There was anger in Shangguanyi's eyes, and he said, "What does the princess mean?" He had read the words of Confucius and Mencius since he was a child, and the most sacred thing in his heart was the four words of loyalty, benevolence, filial piety, but now Cui Yingying called him a corrupt scholar, how could he not angry.

  Cui Yingying was not in a hurry nor slow: "Let me ask you, who was the first monarch Confucius served?"

   "I am Lu Zhaogong!"

   "Who is the second one?"

   "Qi Jinggong!"

   "Who is the third?"

   "Lu Dinggong!"

   "Who is the fourth?"

  "Wei Linggong!" Shangguanyi answered fluently.

  After asking, Cui Yingying said: "Then why did Confucius serve four monarchs?"

  Cui Yingying said this, Li Min understood Cui Yingying's intention, and smiled as she continued to talk.

  Shangguanyi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and was even more terrified than Li Yin's exposure of his spy identity just now, "That's...that is why it is impossible to promote the rule of benevolence in front of these monarchs, and find another monarch who can appreciate him!"

"Hmph, is it wrong for me to say that you are a rotten Confucian? It is true that a loyal minister does not serve two masters, but a virtuous minister chooses the master, and a good bird chooses a tree to rest. You don't even understand this truth, and I don't think you are nothing. A virtuous minister!" Cui Yingying walked to Li Yin's side and said: "Your Highness, why do you keep such a person, let him go, so as not to waste the palace's food!"

  Li Yin was overjoyed, Shangguanyi's face was not much different from braised pork knuckle now, Cui Yingying blinked at him again, Li Yin understood, "My king suddenly realized what the princess said, Jin Daqian!"

   "The old slave is here!" Jin Daqian immediately bowed to accept the order.

   "Give him some money on the road, and let him go back to Chang'an to serve the prince!"

  Shangguanyi's face turned green, but she still couldn't wipe her face off, and followed Jin Daqian out.

"You really don't know what to do. I don't know how many scribes in this newspaper want to come to Yizhou with His Highness. It's good for you. Your Highness praised you, and you are still motivated!" The rules of conduct are very simple, anyone who makes His Highness displeased, he will be displeased.

   After walking all the way, Shangguanyi was reprimanded by Jin Daqian all the way. When he got the usual severance pay, he suddenly felt empty in his heart.

  In the main hall, Li Yin smiled and said to Cui Yingying: "The princess is really smart, why didn't I think of using this method to make him stay?"

   "Stay?" Cui Yingying looked confused, "Why keep him?"

   Li Yin said: "You scolded him worthless by the aggressive method just to get rid of his arrogance, can I use it to make him waver?"

   "No, I just think he's more sour, and I'm deliberately angry with him, who made him embarrass you so much!" Cui Yingying blinked her big eyes and said.

   "Ah!" Facing Cui Yingying's innocent eyes, Li Yin was completely defeated.

In the backyard, Shangguanyi packed her parcel and walked out with a sigh. Cui Yingying's words completely destroyed his faith. He suddenly felt that he was ridiculous. Thinking about going back to the East Palace, what he has learned all his life will be buried in the deep palace, and thinking about the governor of Yizhou that Li Yin talked about, this huge gap feels as uncomfortable as if a pot of sour vinegar has been poured into his heart.

  Out of the palace, Shangguanyi looked at Yizhou City, which was no less compromised with Chang'an, and sighed again, regretting that he really wanted to give himself a few mouthfuls.

  Shangguanyi, who turned his head three times at a time, walked towards the gate of Yizhou city without noticing that Jin Daqian was hiding in an alley and watching him, and then trotted back to the palace through the side gate.

At this time, Li Yin and Cui Yingying had already returned to the South Courtyard. The lady who sent away the local prominent family, Cui Yingying saw Li Yin in the main hall and walked over. Such a blow to Shangguanyi.

   "How does Your Highness know that he is a talent?" Cui Yingying has been struggling with this question.

  Li Yin certainly cannot say that history is written like this, he said: "I also listened to others!"

   "That Yingying really delayed His Highness's important event!" Cui Yingying apologized.

  Li Yin hugged this little woman in his arms, and was moved in his heart. How could he bear to blame a woman who only cared about her husband, and said: "There are so many talents in the world, just find another one!"

   "Your Highness!" Jin Daqian's voice sounded outside.

   "What's the matter?" The two separated awkwardly, Cui Yingying punched him lightly, and walked to the side room, Li Yin thought, it's time to set up a notification system, as this is too lacking in privacy.

  Li Yin came out and asked, "He's gone?"

   "Yes, Your Highness, it's just that when he walked away, he turned around every step of the way, as if he was very reluctant!"

  Li Yan showed a smile, "Cui Yingying really hit the right spot!"

The gate of the city is right in front of you, and you can leave Yizhou City with just one step, but Shangguanyi's feet are raised and lowered, and he can't take that step. A voice deep in his heart keeps telling him to go back to Li Yin pleaded guilty and stayed in Yizhou ever since, but the stubbornness in his bones made him unable to let go of his fragile self-esteem.

"Zhuge Wolong, Zhuge Wolong, how lucky you are!" Looking at the majestic Yizhou word on the city gate, Shangguanyi let out a long sigh, and finally raised his feet. At this moment, there was a rush of horseshoes, He turned his head to look, but Li Yin took the lead and came towards him.

"Shangguanyi, it is thousands of miles away to Chang'an. How long will it take you to reach Chang'an on foot? This is a good horse from the grassland. I will give it to you!" The reins of the brown steed were passed on.

   "Your Highness, this... how can this be done!" Shangguanyi pushed the rein back.

Li Yin said: "Are you still blaming the princess? She was just venting her anger for me. After saying that, I still hope that you can stay in Yizhou to help me, but if you insist on returning to Chang'an, then accept this horse!" Li Yin said Yin understands that Shangguanyi needs a step down at this time.

   Sure enough, after hearing Li Yin's words, Shangguanyi excitedly said: "How dare I blame the princess, the words of the princess make Shangguanyi feel ashamed, Shangguanyi read poems and books in vain, but he doesn't understand this truth!"

   "Then are you willing to stay and work for me?" Li Yin asked expectantly.

  Shangguanyi bowed and said: "If Your Highness does not give up, I am willing to do my best for His Highness!"

   "Hahaha..." Li Yin laughed happily, and put the rein in Shangguanyi's hand, "Then what are you waiting for, follow me back!"

   "Yes, Your Highness!" Shangguanyi tremblingly said, a loyal minister meets a good lord. It was a dream of many scholars at this time, and now Shangguanyi has finally found a home.

Back to the palace, it was still Li Yin and the three of them, but the atmosphere was obviously different now, in a harmonious situation, Li Yin said: "I also told you about the situation in Yizhou just now, Shangguanyi, what can you do?" ?”

After pondering for a while, Shangguanyi said: "Now the high power is clearly showing His Majesty's power. I agree with His Majesty's method of playing hard to get. Reckless dismissal of Yizhou officials will only make them unite and confront His Majesty. However, we are showing weakness on the surface, but at the same time we must secretly The layout, first of all, is to find out which officials are not with them, and win them over to our side out of righteousness. , we need to understand the grievances and resentments in them, so that we can use the conflicts between them to divide and resolve them. Third, it will be much easier to cut off the wings of the high authority first, and finally go back and deal with him.”

  Li Yin nodded: "This is easier said than done!"

   "Your Highness, leave this matter to the lower officials. I will definitely hand over a loyal Yizhou to Your Highness!" Shangguanyi asked for orders.

   "Okay! I now grant you the post of Governor of the Prince of Shu, in charge of Yizhou government affairs!" Li Yin said.

   "Thank you, Your Highness!"

  Li Yan looked at Qin Huaiyu again, "You and I will go to Zhechong Mansion tomorrow!"

   "Yes, Your Highness!" Qin Huaiyu said.

Finally, Li Yin turned to Jin Daqian: "Now you start to buy land and cultivate fields. According to Chang'an's prosperous Tang workshop area, the construction workshop should be as hidden as possible. As for where there is land here, you can ask Gao as the steward of the Shu Palace. Quan, I don't think he won't help me with this little favor."

   "Yes!" Jin Daqian said.
