When daylight dawned, Li Yuncai reluctantly left.
It's not unusual for an internal minister to enter and leave the prince's palace in a swaggering manner, but to come and leave quietly... just like the prince entering the emperor's bedroom, well, it's very strange, isn't it?
After Li Yun left, Fan Wenjin fell asleep. When he was woken up by his growling stomach, it was completely dark outside.
At this time, Fan Wenjin was like a patient who had overindulged himself, struggling to get up from the bed. His whole body was protesting to him, wanting him to lie back on the bed again.
Soon, Prince Li Boyu appeared in front of Fan Wenjin in high spirits, greeted him with greetings, and made Fan Wenjin feel "embarrassed". Speaking of which, Li Boyu didn't feel sorry for him at all, but this time he had already made him do it.
It is unreasonable for a person who is about to die not to feel ashamed.
Li Boyu also brought two doctors to diagnose and treat Fan Wenjin. After all, it would be a joke for a messenger who slept like this to die in his own house.
But again, there must be a reason for asking so diligently, because at this time, the big shots in Guzang City will not leave even a little room for warmth.
The doctors who serve the big shots came to the same conclusion as before: neither serious nor serious. After traveling long distances, both Qi and blood have been depleted, and they need to rest peacefully. In other words, they are not seriously ill, but their bodies are too weak. Look, the nightlife is too rich.
There are really about the same number of people.
And soon, Fan Wenjin also knew something.
Liang Shiming did what he wanted to do but failed to do last night. He led people out of the Prince's Mansion at night. The guards of the Prince's Mansion could not escape the blame. The Prince himself did not expect that after the conversation was so happy, Liang Shiming
The messenger actually ran away.
If this were placed elsewhere, it would definitely be a very serious political accident, but in Guzang today, it was very peaceful outside, as if nothing happened at all, and it seemed that only the prince was depressed for a while.
In contrast, Fan Wenjin, who was extremely "honest" and had been sleeping until now, became more pleasing to the prince. Although this guy refused the beauty he sent and was very ignorant, but...
Look at the way people are about to meet the King of Hell. You have to understand it, right?
Li Boyu was very busy, so he stayed with Fan Wenjin for a while and then left. However, Fan Wenjin's treatment was improved.
Fan Wenjin took a breath, ate something to cushion his stomach, and finally regained some of his energy. However, the sequelae of overuse last night began to bother him. His head hurt, and he felt dizzy and wanted to sleep again.
.
But he didn't have the time to relax. Many things came into his mind at random. The first one was where did Liang Shiming go?
I can’t figure it out, maybe it’s King Wu’an, or maybe Master Liang is in a friendly place in Guzang. After all, the two families are relatively close to each other. Master Liang is now the emperor, so it’s impossible that he doesn’t have any old colleagues or relatives.
Friends are in Guzang.
Well, Liang Shiming definitely had more choices than him, and his intention to grab grain from the fire was obvious. The stupid thing was that he ignored Fan Wenjin.
Liang Shiming sent him to Guzang together with Fan Wenjin, and his intention was clear. He wanted to make peace with the King of Han and Li Gui, and each got what he needed. But when Liang Shiming saw the watermelon, he didn't know who was bitter and who was sweet.
Yire lost the peach he got, which must have been against Master Liang's wishes.
As a client, Fan Wenjin was even more envious, jealous, and resentful of Liang Shiming's ability to move in and out freely.
But one thing Fan Wenjin is sure of is that as long as Liang Shiming is not out of Guzang, as a foreign envoy, the chance of the two meeting again is very high. What is not sure is who will be the superior and who will be reduced to the subordinates.
Where is the prisoner?
Of course, as a smart man, he soon realized that it was useless to think so much. He should take good care of his health now, otherwise it would be a joke if he lay down before others came to arrest him.
So Fan Wenjin suppressed the anxiety in his heart, asked the doctor to prescribe a few prescriptions, and ate hard. At the same time, he also asked someone to take a dagger and kick it into his arms. He was almost ready to be carried away.
And prepared to escape.
Just as he was eating reluctantly, Guan Shi appeared like a ghost again and brought him the latest news: Liang Shuo was about to be buried.
Counting the time, we haven't even passed the first seven days, so what's going on?
But things just happened one after another, and the explanation Guan Shi gave sounded ridiculous, but it was difficult to refute.
Emperor Li Gui was very superstitious. He had dreams when he was seriously ill, and was always pestered by Liang Shuo, so his condition became more serious. In the words of later generations, it actually meant that he had done something wrong and it was reflected in people's subconscious, so he came.
I think about it all day long and dream about it at night.
But Li Gui is very superstitious. He can even listen to the words of shamans from the Western Regions. To what extent do you think he is superstitious?
The result was that the sick and confused emperor issued an edict to immediately mourn Liang Shuo, and ordered all civil and military officials to accompany him.
What do you mean? It means to make a grand ceremony and bury him with royal ceremonials. In other words, we couldn't forgive you when you were alive, but after you die, I will give you a grand burial as an apology. For this reason,
Please stop pestering me.
According to normal procedures, the next step would definitely be to confer official titles on Liang Shuo's brothers and nephews to comfort the hearts of the old people. If Li Gui was not seriously ill, then following a set of procedures, even if the consequences of Liang Shuo's death could not be eliminated, it would certainly
It can make people feel at ease.
But right now, there's no need to think about it, it looks like it's just a dying person messing around.
Fan Wenjin had already heard what Li Boyu said about this matter, but Guan Shi said it more clearly, and the causes and consequences were very clear.
The consequence was that Wei Shizheng, the Minister of Rites, who was conspiring with Master Xie to spy on the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and get as many chips as possible when the chaos was about to break out, was in trouble.
Just as distressed as him was An Xiuren, the Minister of Household Affairs.
The reason is simple: the national treasury is empty and it can no longer resist such wanton squandering.
Ironically, Liang Shuo, the Minister of Civil Affairs, was very frugal during his lifetime, but after his death he was extravagant and wasteful. If Liang Shuo had a spirit underground, he would probably be in a state of confusion.
When Liang Shuo was alive, he was regarded as the political enemy of An Xiuren and Wei Shizheng. After his death, he still caused a lot of trouble for the two of them. In Buddhist terms, these people must have had cause and effect in their previous lives.
What makes people feel even more ridiculous is that Liang Shuo's death was related to his dissuading Li Gui not to build the Jade Girl Terrace and later killing the witches. However, a lot of money was wasted in building the Jade Girl Terrace.
Ren sent people to collect grain and fodder, which aroused numerous rebellions. There was also a bad year, so many people starved to death.
At that time, Liang Shuo persuaded Li Gui to open a warehouse to store grain, and killed the Qiang people who destroyed the grain. Out of the anger of the people, An Xiuren, Xie Tongshi, Wei Shizheng and others took the lead to resist.
Needless to say, An Xiuren became enemies with Liang Shuo. What did Tongshi Xie and Wei Shizheng say? They said that those who starved to death were all weak people. How could you ignore important matters because of them?
In fact, the general meaning is that the food and grass in the warehouse have reached the bottom, and starving to death is nothing. If the warehouse is opened for relief, what will the soldiers eat in the future if there is not so much food?
This was the situation at that time. Liang Shuo was not a perfect man. The harsh laws he advocated aroused dissatisfaction among many people, and An Xiuren's tax collection must have had his support.
But in the final analysis, there is no doubt that Liang Shuo was a good minister. Many of his strategies were for the sake of the overall situation and did not have much selfishness. Li Gui could not use them and killed him instead. This was a very serious mistake he made.
It is said that good ministers have been rare since ancient times. In fact, tolerant and measured kings are even rarer.
Just like now, Guan Shi is venting his dissatisfaction with the emperor with very sarcastic and mean words, "The cunning rabbit is not dead, the lackey is cooked, he sheds a few tears, and is buried in glory, so he wants us to give him more
Trying his best, he thinks it’s quite beautiful.”
Fan Wenjin believed that there must be another source for these words, otherwise this microphone would be too weird.
However, no matter whether Li Gui was beautiful or not, Li Yun, Guan Jin and others found an opportunity. While the prince was jumping up and down, they wanted to use the opportunity of mourning the teacher to find trouble for An Xiuren and others, and An Xiuren and others
While people were holding their noses and discussing how to arrange funeral arrangements for Liang Shuo, some people had already been sent out...
I imagine that by the time Liang Shuo's funeral is held, countless rumors will spread in Guzang City.
At this time, Guan Shi was talking to Fan Wenjin, "This place is no longer a place to stay for a long time. How about I come to pick you up tonight?"
Fan Wenjin couldn't help but feel happy. With Li Yun and others protecting him, the possibility of survival was infinitely increased. This also meant that Li Yun and others had believed in him.
But in the end he shook his head and wisely suppressed his impulse, "If I just leave, it won't help the cause. Please tell Mr. Li that Wen Jin would like to thank him for his kindness."
Guan Shi didn't show any surprise, he just clasped his fists in admiration and said: "If that's the case... The hero of Jin is well-deserved. Please relax and live here with peace of mind. As long as I am alive, I will definitely keep you safe."
Fan Wenjin smiled and said in his heart, "As expected, if I leave now, I will be looked down upon by others. How can I talk to you guys in the future?"
Now that the matter had reached this point, Fan Wenjin let go, waved his hand and ordered: "Come here, bring me some pen and ink."
At this moment, Guan Shi was really in awe of this dark and skinny Jin man, who seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind, but he also wanted to persuade him not to write letters or anything else, so as not to miss others.
In my hand, I might as well say a few sentences orally. Even if I haven’t read too many books, I can still remember it, and the general meaning will not be conveyed incorrectly.
However, before he could speak, Fan Wenjin had already laughed and said: "Go back and tell Mr. Li that there is nothing to fear from General Xie. A letter is enough to make him stop and watch. I just have to trouble General Guan once more to deliver the letter to Master Xie."
