Chapter Five Hundred and Ninety Nine: Like-minded
Chapter 599: Like-minded
Li Yuanba did cause a big sensation in the next few days.
Even when many officials Ji'an arrived at Li Yuanba, they showed a look of fear, because Li Yuanba even moved two prime ministers, who dared not pay attention to this?
Of course, this is just the idea of ordinary officials below. They may not necessarily have such long-term insights in the situation.
You may not even be able to know the changes in conflicts and changes between the top leaders.
It’s like ordinary people in later generations. Although they see officials on TV every day, and the images of two good comrades between senior officials, who knows how many conflicts of interest are there?
Not to mention that the people are not clear about it, even many middle and low-level officials do not know about the conflicts of interest between the emperor and various senior officials! However, Li Yuanba happened to be clear about it, because the resumes of several prime ministers in the early years of the Tang Dynasty were also very clear.
Coupled with some of his inferences about the common sense of officialdom, it is easy to conclude the contradiction between them.
This is how Li Yuanba took advantage of the situation, otherwise he would not dare to do whatever he wanted.
Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, Li Yuanba is a "Zhuge Liang" who can know things in advance.
But Li Yuanba himself knew very well that he was just an hindsight, and the reverse analysis afterwards was much easier than the advance prediction!
However, Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu obviously did not come to seek revenge on Li Yuanba, because revenge on Li Yuanba only means that their political level is low, and instead ruin their reputation.
Anyway, they had long predicted that they would have a king and a minister, but this day came a little suddenly, but it was also expected.
"This time, in addition to taking advantage of the situation to move to Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu, I have broken the opportunity of Jiangnan tyrants to cultivate the second generation of spokespersons.
Originally, Liu Wei, the chief of the Governor's Office of the Nankangzhou, would have been transferred to the Wannian County Magistrate if nothing unexpected happens and come over to compete with me for credit.
Unfortunately, I moved to Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu first, so Liu Wei's plan to be transferred to Wannian County Magistrate completely went bankrupt.
Fortunately, I knew that Liu Shi was the second-generation spokesperson of the Jiangnan family in history, otherwise I would have been stolen from the credit this time! It was really dangerous, otherwise I would have made achievements, but I was making wedding dresses for others.
However, this time it blocked Liu Wei's future. Liu Wei still doesn't know what he would think of me in the future?
Forget it, there must be a road before the car arrives at the mountain, and the boat will naturally straighten when it reaches the bridge. I can only take one step at a time."
Li Yuanba thought helplessly.
Li Yuanba ignored the future. Although he had mastered the original history, he obviously found that he had begun to lose control.
The original history has undergone some changes in details, but he has no choice but to take one step at a time.
If you talk about the future, he can only do his current affairs well.
At present, I am just a county magistrate, so I can handle people's livelihood affairs well, and he can't control anything else.
"Your Highness, I'm here to see you!"
A voice suddenly came from behind Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba immediately turned around and said enthusiastically: "Brother Liu, what wind has blown you! Haven't you just taken office as the magistrate of Xianyang County?
Why do you have time to come to me?
According to my Tang Dynasty rules, any county magistrate cannot leave the county town without authorization, why did you leave casually?"
This "Brother Liu" is Liu Rengui, who just took office as the magistrate of Xianyang County half a month ago.
Li Yuanba helped Liu Rengui plead with mercy in front of Li Shimin. In this way, Liu Rengui not only failed to live, but instead became promoted in disguise and obtained the position of Xianyang County Magistrate.
Xianyang County is actually very close to Chang'an. Chang'an was just a county in this era, and Xianyang was also a county.
However, Chang'an and Xianyang are very close, and they are actually just two bordering counties.
Chang'an is Xi'an in later generations. Xianyang was also called Xianyang in later generations. However, anyone who has traveled to Xi'an should be a little clear about it. Xi'an and Xianyang have almost integrated into one in later generations, and even the telephone area code is the same.
"It's okay, I'm just here to see you, brother! Thanks to you, brother, before, you plead for me, otherwise I would not be able to escape, and even came to Xianyang to serve as the county magistrate! I have never been able to thank you, brother, today I have to be the host of anything I say, so I'll invite you to Chang'an for a meal.
As for your worry that I will leave casually, this is actually just that I asked the county magistrate for a document and asked him to "send" me to Chang'an to do something, and I can always find excuses, right?"
Liu Rengui said.
"Oh, so that's it!"
Li Yuanba laughed and said, obviously Liu Rengui just casually made an excuse to ask his boss to "send" him to work in Chang'an. Such excuses are easy to find, such as traveling abroad is called conducting a national inspection or something. As long as you are willing to find excuses, you can always find them.
However, Li Yuanba is also more convenient. He is a county in Chang'an City, so he can naturally enter and exit Chang'an City at will without any impact.
The two ordered a few side dishes in a small inn and started to eat and chat. Anyway, they came to have a meal at work. At present, no one in Chang'an dared to take care of Li Yuanba. The two prime ministers had just stepped down, so who would dare to provoke Li Yuanba! A little work discipline may not be able to restrain the current Li Yuanba.
"Your Highness, I'll give you a cup. Since the last time you faced me, a person who has never lived, you can share the risks together, and even plead for me at the risk of being implicated by me. From that moment on, I have recognized you, you are my friend of my life and forever! I said that if I come this time, I am willing to make friends with you."
Liu Rengui said.
Li Yuanba refused, but said, "Let's not make it like those people in the world, or make it sworn brothers."
We are officials of the court, so it is not good to be sworn in any way.
We should be "comrades" with the same aspirations and the same ideals, not such gangsters who are like wine and meat friends.
So when you talk about swornship, you don’t need to mention it anymore.
As long as we are still 'comrades' with similar interests, is there any such so-called eight-worship friendship? Is it interesting?"
"This is true, but the word 'comrade' is used well. We have similar interests, so we are naturally 'comrade'.
Well, I won’t mention the matter of the Eight Bibles.”
Liu Rengui said.
Of course, it’s good for comrades! Like-minded people, comrades who work hard and strive for their ambitions!
Doesn’t it sound much nobler than the so-called eight-worship friendship?
