Chapter 697: Wen Yanbo's Decisiveness
"Da Lin, how old are you this year!"
Shu An's faint voice suddenly sounded, and it was naturally impossible for him not to know Wen Yanbo's age.
It's just that sometimes this matter also needs a hidden son, so I asked this question.
Wen Yanbo was slightly stunned at first, and couldn't help but start thinking about it, but a wry smile appeared on his face.
"I'm a few years younger than my teacher, but I look like I'm much older than my teacher!"
Wen Yanbo couldn't help but think a little gloomily in his heart, he was sixty-three years old this year.
This age is not small in the eyes of many people, and even compared to the entire Tang Dynasty, this age is already the year of destiny.
That is to say, how long he can live, it depends on the will of God, and Wen Yanbo was silent for a while.
Is the teacher suggesting that he should do the work in front of him, or retire and rest, rather than letting himself choose to face the difficulties on his own?
"Da Lin, what do you want to do?"
Looking at Wen Yanbo's silent appearance, Shu An's faint voice continued to sound.
He knew that Wen Yanbo was listening to his words, but this was also expected.
In fact, Shu An still has some unbearability in his heart, and there are more talents in Datang than he imagined.
But Wen Yanbo, that is, his disciple, is the only one like this, and at least he must die a righteous death, not because of hard work.
Maybe this is selfishness, even if it is a sage, when it does not hinder the development of the whole world, he still has his own ideas.
The sage is not a ruthless person, at least in this matter, Shu An does not want to compromise.
"Want to do something?!"
Wen Yanbo's eyes flickered, as if he didn't know what he was thinking.
Since he was sensible, he knew that his identity was extraordinary, his father was a famous man in the Northern Qi Dynasty, and behind him was the entire Taiyuan Wen family.
Maybe it's not as good as those top things, but he has a prominent background, and he also has a lot of ideas for the future.
It's a pity that the troubled times have come, so Wen Yanbo has too many ideas.
He once seemed to want to go back to his hometown and see his companions who had sneaked out to play, and wondered if they were still there.
Back then, he seemed to have secretly loved a young girl, but later succumbed to fate because of family relations.
Although decades had passed, in this moment, he seemed to find that he had forgotten too many things.
"Dalin, sometimes people have to live for themselves, after all, fame and fortune can't stop the years."
This time, Shu An's words continued to sound, expressing his thoughts, which can be said to make Wen Yanbo's spirit a little trance.
But it's normal, in front of this teacher, Wen Yanbo won't have so many thoughts.
In other words, Wen Yanbo still listens to his teacher's words very much.
Of course, this has to be realized by Wen Yanbo himself, and in the end, Wen Yanbo still clicked.
"Presumably, Da Lin should enter the palace, wait a little for the teacher to write a letter, and you will pass it on to Your Majesty!"
Shu An's words continued to sound, obviously Wen Yanbo had made his own decision, and his current position was enough.
There is really no need to fight for the position of Zaifu, after all, at the age of sixty-three, it is also the time to retire.
What's more, Wen Yanbo's many sons and nephews are all in the imperial court, and he is really not one of them.
........
After Wen Yanbo came out of Shu Mansion, he didn't go to that and went directly to the palace.
And Li Shimin naturally would not refuse this minister of the humerus, of course, he naturally wondered what was going on.
After listening to Wen Yanbo's words, Li Shimin fell silent.
Among the candidates for Zaifu, he does prefer Wen Yanbo and thinks that his ability is more prominent.
But I didn't expect Wen Yanbo to dare to refuse, but when Wen Yanbo took out Shu An's letter.
This emperor can be regarded as having some enlightenment, it turns out that Wen Yanbo went to see Yafu before.
"Father, don't you think Wen Yanbo should be on the throne of Zaifu!"
For a while, Li Shimin couldn't help but have thoughts, and after reading this letter, he became even more silent.
Because on the envelope, Shu An analyzed Wen Yanbo's character from an objective point of view, and said all the possible speculations.
Li Shimin, who had already believed in Shu An, naturally knew that his father's words were polite.
This may be a prediction, but Li Shimin didn't dwell too much on this matter, but agreed with Wen Yanbo's idea.
That is to slowly withdraw from the court, even Li Shimin doesn't know whether to laugh or cry.
After all, I believe that this matter should be a good thing in the eyes of many people, after all, he should be the emperor of Zaifu.
I didn't expect it to be like this, if it was an ordinary emperor, I would definitely not care about this matter.
But Li Shimin is not an ordinary emperor, but an emperor who attaches great importance to feelings, so he agreed to Wen Yanbo's idea. Slowly withdraw from this court.
"I agreed to this!"
When he heard the promise of this emperor, Wen Yanbo didn't know why he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and a lot of smiles appeared on his face.
I don't know why, the whole body and mind are relaxed, and he obviously had already thought about it before he came.
However, he didn't expect to be so relaxed now, and Wen Yanbo quickly retired, because it was not so simple to retire.
After all, Wen Yanbo is now the principal of the Wen family, and if he withdraws from the court, then the Wen family will not make trouble.
Fortunately, Wen Yanbo now has no burden in his heart, and he still wants to go back to Taiyuan.
Regarding Wen Yanbo, although not many people know about it, when Wen Yanbo returned to the Wen Mansion, it was different.
Some gossip began to spread in Chang'an!
"Lord Wen seems to be intent on withdrawing from the court!"
"How is this possible, you must know that His Majesty intended to promote Lord Wen before."
"That's right, this news of quitting the court must be fake."
......
Many people talked about it, but some scholars and courtiers couldn't help but scoff when they heard it, they didn't think that Wen Yanbo would choose to withdraw at this time.
I just took it as some rumors, and I didn't care about it.
And Shu An, who had returned to the academy, also received the news from Chang'an, and there was still some surprise on his face.
"I didn't expect Da Lin to be so decisive!"
Shu An couldn't help but think silently, knowing that he could only not want Wen Yanbo to go further, and he would not work too hard.
I didn't expect Wen Yanbo to be more decisive and directly withdraw from the court, although it was gossip, Shu An was convinced.
"Presumably that emperor should be very complicated!"
Of course, Shu An did not forget Li Shimin in the court, after all, this time was a big reversal.
