After listening to Xu Ping's words, Li Shen was silent for a while, and only after a while did he say: "Du Cao, since you arrived on Jingxi Road, you have always taken care of me, and I am grateful." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info I'm not from a Jinshi background, it's not easy to be able to make a general judgment, and to go further, to be honest, I don't dare to think about it. The money and food test in the state is too poor, and the board falls on me, and I have nothing to say. However, why did Du Cao hold on to Li Xianggong? He is an old and important minister, and if you report to the court, you will not belittle his officials, and it will have no impact on him, but he will lose face. Now that Lu Xianggong of the Chaoli has bad intentions towards Jingxi Road, especially towards Du Cao, at this time, having an old minister like Li Xianggong say two good words is very beneficial to Du Cao! ”

Xu Ping looked at Li Shen and suddenly smiled: "My lord has been studying all the way to Caoxian, and it is my duty to compare the money and grain of the state and county." The states do what they do, and if I get up and down from them, how will people perceive me? If you want to be convincing, the first thing is to be honest, and I have a clear conscience on this point. The second is to be fair, if you are not fair, no one will believe what you say. If I ignore Mengzhou, how will the magistrates of other states and counties on Jingxi Road think of me? Is my test language still useful? Lu Xianggong has a bad heart towards Jingxi Road, and the first thing I need is for the officials of Jingxi Road to work together to tide over the difficulties with me! Li Xianggong's words have weight in the court, but this weight, in my opinion, is far less than the weight of the officials of Jingxi Road. ”

This answer was obviously unexpected by Li Shen, what he was most afraid of was that Xu Ping was angry because of Li Di's neglect last year, but he didn't expect Xu Ping to think about winning the support of the officials of Jingxi Road. But is this kind of support useful?

The two have different statuses, and the direction of thinking is different. For Xu Ping, with the support of the emperor in the court, the support of a former prime minister like Li Di is dispensable, and it does not bring him any direct benefits. What he needs is for Li Di to come forward to support the new policy on Jingxi Road. But the problem is that Li Di has already expressed his opposition, and now it is the result of his opposition, how can Xu Ping highlight the necessity of the new deal if he does not deal with it strictly?

Seeing that Li Shen was going to talk again, Xu Ping raised his glass and said, "Let's have a drink and talk while drinking." ”

Putting down the wine glass, Xu Ping said again: "Qingchen, have you actually thought about it, Li Xianggong may not want me to let it go gently?" ”

Li Shen was stunned: "How come?" A former prime minister, a former privy envoy, is the worst in the road under his rule, where is the face? ”

"Mengzhou and Xiangzhou, the worst money and grain is already a sure thing, and even the words of Lu Xianggong relayed by Master Yan are all officials from the states and counties of Jingxi Road, excluding Mengzhou and Xiangzhou. The whole world knows it, what's the point of covering it up? Xiangzhou Taiwei Zhang, maybe he really wants me to let it go gently. He is a martial artist, and he has always been slick and slanderous, so it is not surprising to have this thought, and it is really possible to degrade officials. But Li Xianggong is different, he was born as a champion and was once an emperor, what you said is right, even if my examination language goes to the imperial court, most of them will not belittle Li Xianggong's officials. But can Lee Sang-gong hold it on his face? ”

Li Shen was silent and silent for a long time. Think about it carefully, let Xu Ping be a junior, Li Di really can't afford to lose this person.

Xu Ping said again: "And everyone in the world knows that Li Xianggong is straightforward, one is one and two is two, if you know that the two of us are here to discuss this kind of thing in private, I'm afraid that we won't be able to tolerate it first!" ”

Li Di is a rough person, straightforward, upright, Li Shen asked Xu Ping to shoot this kind of sycophant, which is clearly to be slapped on the horse's feet. was expelled from the court by Lu Yijian, and the most important thing was to leave Zhao Zhen with the impression that his ability was not good, at least in Zhao Zhen's opinion, Li Di's ability was far inferior to Lu Yijian's. But in Zhao Zhen's heart, he did not have the slightest doubt about Li Di's loyalty, and he was the most trustworthy group of people. Zhao Zhen was the crown prince at the beginning, and Li Di was the prince's teacher, and this relationship was not comparable to others. Therefore, Xu Ping and Li Shen both believe that no matter what happens in this evaluation, Li Di's official position will not be affected in any way.

After thinking for a long time, Li Shen finally sighed: "Maybe what Du Cao said is right, it's just that I have received great favor from Li Xianggong in the past two years, and this kind of result is always not a taste in my heart." ”

"People know each other, and it is a rare opportunity for Qing ministers to be valued by Li Xianggong, so it is not surprising to think like this. Okay, let's not talk about that, let's drink. After inspecting Mengzhou in the past two days, he will return to Luoyang City with me and establish the law of eternity with peace of mind. ”

Transit personnel should not be in one place for a maximum of five days. Even the time on the way back and forth, Xu Ping left Luoyang this time, and it was only ten days at most. In the past few days, I just asked other personnel to sort out their thoughts in Luoyang Xiancheng, and after Xu Ping returned from his inspection in Mengzhou, he would start to do his best.

Lin Suniang went to Songshan to pray for blessings because she was pregnant. I don't know what rhetoric she used, saying that Yan Shu's eldest daughter was moved to walk with her, and Yan Shu, who had nothing to do, went with her.

also has a daughter, Xu Ping understands Yan Shu very well. In this year, once the daughter gets married, especially if she marries an official like Fu Bi, and travels around, the father really doesn't know when and when he will be able to see his daughter again. This eldest daughter has been Yan Shu's favorite since she was a child, and this time she has the opportunity, so she naturally wants to get together as much as possible. In other words, Xu Ping, if one day Panpan marries someone, I am afraid that I will be reluctant to encounter such a time, let alone go to Songshan under the rule of Henan Mansion, and I will go to Mount Tai and follow.

The night was getting deeper, and it was getting colder and colder, and the big wood on the fire next to it had burned through, and the fire was raging, and the surroundings were warm. The pork on the fire dripped with oil, sizzling and sizzling, and from time to time a small puff of clear smoke came up.

After eating a piece of meat that was flowing with oil everywhere, Xu Ping wiped his mouth and said with satisfaction: "It is said that Mengzhou's pork is the best in the world, which is really not a lie." I have a Zhuangzi in Zhongmu, raising sheep and horses, and also raising cattle and pigs, and last year I asked the people in the village to come to Mengzhou to buy some piglets back, and I don't know how they are raised. If it is well raised, the people in the capital will be blessed. ”

Li Shen said: "I have also heard of the Zhuangzi of Ducao, speaking of which the Zhuangzi is also famous in the nearby states and counties, and I don't know how many people want to learn to build one." However, there are many people who learn, but I haven't heard of anyone who can really learn the essence. ”

Xu Ping smiled: "What is the essence of it? My Zhuangzi is a small camp in my own family. In the future, when Wang Junzhen returns to the capital, his ministry will be idle, and it will be easy to build such a Zhuangzi! ”

Hearing this, Li Shen smiled and said: "If you say so, I am a little envious of Wang Junzhen's ministry." ”

"Don't be envious, this time, as long as you clarify the governance of Jingxi Road and write a book, you will understand everything. If you don't think about things in the world, don't do them, and if you really think about them, you don't have to do them, and then there's nothing difficult about them. ”

Xu Ping's manor actually doesn't have any secrets, the key is the small techniques and skills he brought from his previous life, and the most important thing is, of course, the concept. His Zhuangzi was built according to the operation law of the commodity economy, and how many landlords in this era could figure this out? I can't wait to produce everything in my village and plant everything, so my ability to make money will naturally not work.

When Xu Ping and Li Shen were chatting enthusiastically, Tan Hu on the side suddenly said: "Ah, isn't Li Xianggong here?" ”

Xu Ping was stunned for a moment when he heard this, hurriedly stood up, turned around to look, and saw a Qingluo umbrella entering the courtyard.
