Chapter seven hundred and eighty sixth bad premonition
"Hey, kid, could it be that the sun is out in the west today, or I'm just blinded, why are you here?"
Although the voice coming from the front was not loud, he dared to speak like this in the main hall, completely ignoring the supervisory censor, and there were not many people in the court.
Li Yi sighed and said helplessly: "There is no way, your Majesty summons..."
Old General Xue looked at him and said in surprise: "Why did your Majesty summon you?"
Li Yi himself was still curious. If the old emperor wanted to ask him for anything, he would usually summon him in private. Every time he took the initiative to summon him to court, nothing good would happen.
General Xue didn't ask any further questions. He walked up to him and lowered his voice and said, "You must leave a good place for my Xue family on the academy monument."
Li Yi looked at him in surprise and said, "Shouldn't Mr. Xue talk to Her Royal Highness about this matter?"
Old General Xue glanced at him, "Don't think that I don't know. Although Her Highness is doing things in the Academy on the surface, it must be your idea behind the scenes. The Cui family has not offended the Princess. Her Highness is doing such shady things.
Not coming out."
"I don't know what Mr. Xue is talking about..." Li Yi leaned against the pillar and said: "I really have no control over the academy. Mr. Xue should talk to Her Highness the Princess. With the relationship between the princess and the general, let alone Xue
Let’s leave a good place on the courtyard monument, even if it’s just a separate monument for Mr. Xue outside the academy.”
"Bah, why are you erecting a monument for me? I'm not dead yet!" Old General Xue glanced at him, but he was not angry and said: "Your Highness, it's hard for me to come forward. If people see it, they will inevitably guess.
Your Highness uses public affairs for personal gain, but you are different. The Li family has donated a lot of money. It is impossible for others to gossip, so just help me blow my pillow..."
Li Yi actually had a plan in mind. Although Jiangmen was not considered poor, his life had only gotten better recently, so it was impossible to donate much money to compete with those wealthy and aristocratic families.
In fact, he originally wanted to separate a certain academy and build it into a military academy of this era, specializing in cultivating military talents. At that time, old people like General Xue and General Ma, who have spent their entire military lives in the military, can also use their remaining energy to provide for their retirement.
In addition, teaching some students will have countless benefits for the continuation of the sect.
This is what they are willing to do. When Li Yi came last time, he heard several generals lament that if they didn't even have to go to court in the future, they would be bored.
These veterans are very good to him, and they have saved him many troubles in the court in the past. When it comes to matters in the academy, he will naturally have some selfish motives and do something for the generals.
Of course, apart from this, there is another reason that cannot be stated clearly.
However, this matter must be discussed with them in advance, otherwise it will be considered as abusing the elderly and squeezing the residual value of the veteran. This blame cannot be shouldered.
"really?"
Old General Xue didn't seem to care at all whether his surplus value was being squeezed, but his spirits were lifted.
Li Yi nodded and said: "Of course, but this has to be agreed by several veteran generals. After all, no one in Jingguo knows better than you about arranging troops, getting into formation, and charging. When the time comes, you will still be in charge of the entire academy.
, of course, the nominal dean must be Her Royal Highness the Princess."
When academies across the country are built, the eldest princess will be the dean of all academies. She is not just an honorary figure, but is roughly equivalent to the minister of education in Jingguo. This position will not be occupied by the royal family.
"Don't worry, those old guys are eager to have something to do." Of course Old General Xue understood what he said. It was impossible for the court to completely hand over such a college to them. It would be better for the principal to be the eldest princess than to be someone else.
, no one will object to those old guys.
He originally wanted to ask for more details, but the hall suddenly became quiet. When he saw a figure walking out from the back of the hall, General Xue immediately stood back to his original position.
Li Yi poked his head out from behind the pillar and saw Emperor Jing already sitting on the dragon chair, and quickly retracted.
The top priority discussed in the court today is still water control.
The imperial court sent several groups of officials to deal with the flood in the south, but they failed to effectively control it. This matter was the focus of discussions in the morning.
All the officials offered their suggestions diligently, but very few of them offered constructive suggestions.
Either they were repeating the routines of their predecessors, or they were saying something that seemed reasonable, but was actually all false nonsense. Li Yi was getting tired of hearing it behind the pillar.
Emperor Jing looked at the noisy court below, glanced several times, but did not see a certain figure. He frowned and said, "Where is Li Yi?"
The pillars in the hall were thick, just enough to block his entire body. When Li Yi heard it for the second time, he realized that someone was calling him. He walked out from behind the pillars, bowed and said, "I'm here!"
Seeing him hiding behind the pillar again, Emperor Jing gave him a cryptic look and said, "There is a flood in the south. The imperial court sent two groups of officials to control the flood, but to no avail. In your opinion, how should we control this flood?"
As soon as Emperor Jing said this, many people in the court looked downcast.
Regarding the matter of water control, civil and military officials throughout the dynasty expressed their opinions, but no one could get into His Majesty's eyes. Only the Marquis of Li County could be pointed out by Your Majesty even after hiding behind a pillar. This shows how much His Majesty's trust in him has reached.
The point!
This is really not a good thing for some people in the DPRK.
"Your Majesty, what I want to say has been finished by you all just now." Li Yi said helplessly: "I really don't know how to control water."
The power of nature is so terrifying that even in future generations, it cannot be countered by human power.
No matter how many books he reads and how much knowledge he knows, he does not think that he can be better than the professional water control officials of the Metropolitan Water Supervision Bureau. Moreover, due to limited technology, the water control methods of later generations are simply difficult to realize now. His
Those insights are of little use as a reference, not to mention that they need to be analyzed based on the actual situation, and on-site inspections are certain... It’s better not to go into this muddy water.
In a few months, Ruyi will give birth, and he doesn't want to leave at this time. He has been away for long enough before that.
"Okay, you can go down." Emperor Jing waved his hand, realizing that he had subconsciously regarded him as the last life-saving straw. Water control is not an endorsement, let alone a poem. Even the water supervision officials of the capital can't do it, so what can he do?
What’s a good idea?
There was a sneer on the faces of some people in the palace. It is true that this Li County Marquis is good at using some strange tricks, but when it comes to governing the country or these things that require real skills, his true colors will be revealed.
.
Li Yi did not retreat to his original position this time. He had already been called out by the old emperor once. It would be a little bad if he hid behind the pillar again.
"You shouldn't have said that just now." Old General Xue slowly moved to his side and whispered: "Even if you really don't understand, you can still restate it based on what the person in front of you said. Such tricks
This method should not be used again in the future."
"Junior knows."
Li Yi didn't care. If he just talked about theory without contacting the actual situation, all the people in the court combined would not be his opponent. However, this kind of thing is not just talk on paper after all. His words may cause countless people to suffer, or
It's better not to speak.
In the end, there was no discussion on the water control issue, so it could only be shelved for the time being. The court once again sent more officials there. Li Yi estimated that today's morning court should be almost over. Should he go to see the old monk Tan Yin or Yuan Laodao first?
This is a question worth thinking about.
At this moment, Emperor Jing above did not know what he said, and a eunuch walked out from behind him, as if he was about to announce an edict.
Li Yi decided to go back to explore the truth first before making any plans. He accidentally raised his head and found Emperor Jing looking at him. His heart skipped a beat, and he instantly had a very bad premonition.
