Like many people, Li Po is not dull in political sense, but he just doesn’t know much about the rules. +◆
Of course, this is also the biggest difference between civilians and nobles in the past or many years to come...
As soon as the letter arrived, Li Po understood it.
In the thirteenth year of Daye, that is, in the winter of the first year of Yining, the group of people who invaded Chang'an City were in full swing engaged in political distribution. In layman's terms, it was to reward according to merit.
The cold winter also gave them the opportunity to quietly conduct internal integration.
He could imagine what a lively scene the popular Li Yuan mansion would be. Not only did Li Yuan provide the people of Chang'an with a guarantee for a stable life in the future, but he should also be able to give more to the nobles.
Even if Li Po is not interested in Li Yuan, he has to admit that there are not many people in the world who can closely unite the nobles around him.
In the past ten years, those famous veterans and wise generals have declined one after another, and there are not many people who can help the descendants of the Yang family.
The Sui Emperor Yang Guang also personally buried the Yang family's prestige among his subjects.
If he had died earlier, there might have been some hope for his descendants to make a comeback, but he had been drinking and having fun in the Jiangdu palace, and he lived a long time, which also eliminated the last chance for his descendants to take over the imperial power.
Of course, these are all boring conjectures. According to the current situation, even if Yang Guang passes away at this time, the chances of the Sui Dynasty being revived are about the same as winning the lottery later.
Both the people in Chang'an and Li Po knew that the war was far from over.
Moreover, even though Li Po was promoted very quickly, he has not enjoyed any glory and wealth so far, which made him subconsciously care less about his official position.
Speaking of which, there is still a fundamental difference between him and people these days. The words "Feng Wife and Yinzi" may occasionally appear in his mind, but they will never dominate like the Xue brothers and others.
Therefore, the surprise that Li Bi expected was really out of the question. Even though the explanation was very clear, Li Po didn't take it to heart.
When it snowed heavily, Li Po had fewer things to do, so he picked up his book again and started practicing calligraphy and reading behind closed doors like a diligent student.
Teachers are easy to find, and Wen Yanbo is a ready candidate.

"In the past, Su Qin said that King Hui of Qin was in the palace, and his words were all the policies of the king. The king was disgusted with it and drove him away... Qin returned, but he was exhausted and extremely miserable. When he returned home, his wife could not weave, and his sister-in-law could not
When he was cooking, his parents refused to talk to him. Qin sighed and said, "The wife does not regard her as her husband, and her sister-in-law does not regard her as her uncle. The parents do not regard themselves as their son, and it is Qin's fault." So he hung up his neck and studied hard. On the day of the plan, An Yousuo said
If the Lord doesn’t use his gold, jade, and brocade, how can he choose the venerable minister?”
"Then he traveled around the countries, lobbied the kings, and became the prime minister of the six countries. He will speak to the king of Chu. When he passed Luoyang, his parents heard about it. They cleared the palace and cleared the roads. They set up a place for drinking. They met in the suburbs for thirty miles. My wife looked sideways and listened attentively. My sister-in-law crawled like a snake.
, bow four times and thank you.”
"Why? If you are poor, your parents will have no children. If you are rich, your relatives will be afraid of you. In this world, how can one be rich or powerful?"
This is written about the lobbyist Su Qin in Warring States Policy. Obviously Wen Yanbo didn't follow the textbook, and he didn't pay much attention to the strong men he brought in temporarily.
But the hidden meaning is not little at all. What he wanted to tell the Daizhou marching commander was that in life, life is inevitable, and power cannot be ignored.
Since an official is in his position, don't be too distracted. Parents, wives, etc. are all trivial matters. Ruling the people should be your biggest concern.
Li Po listened very seriously. He had a book on Warring States Policy in his hand, which had Wen Yanbo's annotations on it. He was dizzy when he saw it. At this moment, he was complaining in his heart, "Are you cheating? There are so many words written in the book, so you just
Excerpt a few sentences, who are you trying to fool?
But as he picked at the words, he discovered that he actually recognized all these words and roughly understood the meaning. He couldn't help but feel good. After all, he had made some progress.
The meaning of these books written by the ancients was difficult and difficult for him to understand sometimes.
In fact, this story is very simple. It is roughly about a lobbyist named Su Qin who became a high official through hard work.
Politicians will be able to see the ingenuity of the alliance, and the generals will probably have cold sweats on their backs because the swords and guns are not as good as this guy's tongue. This is terrible.
As for ordinary people, what we see is the excitement, and we just listen to what others say.
As for the literati, their twisted and colorful intestines are exposed. Wen Yanbo can easily pick it up and summarize a lot of irrelevant truths.
But just like before, before Wen Yanbo could explain the explanation to this guy, the guy smacked his lips and said, "Let me tell you, this Su Qin must be from a rich family. He is wearing a mink fur coat and actually has a hundred gold coins in his hand.
When you see the leader of a country coming to your house, tell me, he doesn't take good care of his parents, raises his wife and children, respects his brothers and sisters-in-law, and wanders around. If I have such a son, why don't I talk to him? I'll start with that.
Let’s break his legs before…”
Although it had only been a few days, Wen Yanbo was already used to hearing such strange talk.
I could only helplessly droop the corners of my mouth, pacing back and forth, thinking for the thousandth time in my heart of strangling this cheap student to death.
In Wen Yanbo's view, this guy is not ignorant, but he is also very eager to learn. The leader of the army is in a high position at such a young age, but he is still eager to learn, and his future achievements can really be said to be limitless.
Already.
But the annoying thing is that this person can always come up with a bunch of fallacies from a very magical angle.
Just like now, does what this guy said make sense? How the hell could it make sense? But the more you think about it, you feel that what he said is quite right.
If they were Su Qin's parents, they would definitely not be liked by a son who only uses his words and ruins the family property, right?
At this moment, he wanted to say something ridiculous loudly, and then use a stick to teach this student who was full of crooked ideas, but after looking at the other person's body and posture, he wisely chose to remain silent.
Seeing his uncomfortable look, Li Po suppressed his laughter and spoke again, "Okay Wen Sima, I don't study for the sake of understanding, just for the sake of being a governor. No matter how much I say about the truth, it's just a family opinion, and I can't do it accurately. I know
That’s all it is, if we look into it further, what’s the point?”
"Come on, come on, Wen Sima quickly writes a few more large characters, so I can come here. You are really good at writing this character. If you put it aside in Daizhou, only Su Dan and Su Erlang can barely compare.
Than, the rest of the people are not."
Wen Yanbo was completely angry, and there were countless underachievers who wanted to be his disciples. But except for his sons, there was no one who was unwilling to listen to his lectures and principles, and only wanted to learn writing from him.
While he was writing and writing helplessly, he couldn't help but think, if Medicine Master Li also had a literary reputation, how could he teach such a student and son-in-law?
He was a little distracted here, but Li Po was dissatisfied and muttered beside him, "Hey, Wen Sima, you should pay more attention. You have to be sincere when writing to write well. Are you fooling me?" , look, look, this stroke, if the pen is not strong enough, the edge will be blunt, and the pen will be a failure."
Not to mention, after practicing calligraphy for several years, the big characters he can write cannot be compared with Wen Yanbo's, but his eyesight has been developed, and Wen Yanbo will catch it if he loses his focus for a moment.
Wen Yanbo came out of the study sweating profusely. His youngest son hurried over with his followers and put a mink fur cloak on him. The teenage boy looked at his father's face and immediately stepped back quietly.
Sure enough, Wen Yanbo glanced sideways, opened his mouth and cursed, "What are you doing here, you little bastard? Go back and practice your calligraphy. Copy the Warring States Policy Su Qin Lianheng for me ten times. My writing is not good. I will take the test later." If you don't make sense during the argument, I'll break your legs."
These days, wives and children are mostly used to vent their anger. After Wen Yanbo was tortured mentally, his son naturally became his punching bag.
"Wen Sima is here, why is he so angry?"
Liu Jingsheng came over wrapped up tightly, blinking his eyes and looking innocent. He got angry outside the study room of the former governor's office. What could be going on?
This is simply asking the question knowingly. Being a teacher for Shangguan is not a good thing. Unless your family also has a daughter who is as beautiful as a flower and is good at fighting, then that's about the same.
Wen Yanbo calmed down the tightness in his chest, put his hands behind his back, and said with a straight face: "Why are Colonel Liu looking for me?"
Liu Jingsheng clasped his fists indifferently and said with a smile: "It's nothing serious. I've always heard that Sima's handwriting is good. It's almost the end of the year. I want to trouble Sima to write some peach charms to bring good luck to everyone..."
Wen Yanbo: "..."
"Hey, Wen Sima, don't leave..."
Looking at Wen Yanbo who turned around and left, Liu Jingsheng chuckled secretly and curled his lips. His popularity is too small. He has been gesticulating in front of us for a long time. He is even more rude today. Hum, if he didn't put his faith in the Lord more seriously than You, I have to kill you.
While he was thinking about it, Li Po's impatient voice came from the study, "Get away, there are so many people who can't write a peach charm? Isn't it embarrassing to find yourself here?"
Liu Jingsheng trembled obviously, giggled awkwardly twice, and ran away in despair.
In fact, he was just wandering around in the middle of winter with nothing to do.
……………………
The thirteenth year of the great cause passed by quietly, and no one paid much attention to the so-called New Year's Eve. The world situation has undergone great changes in this year.
Everyone is thinking about their situation, gathering strength, and waiting for the arrival of spring.
But in Yunzhong Grassland in the north, in Dali City, Dingxiang County, the Turkic Shibi Khan fell ill at such a critical time...
