"I know." Li Xingchen said directly, "But I should thank you for your concern for the country."
Yang Jian immediately set up a table and saluted: "I don't dare to do this."
Footsteps sounded, and Dugu and Yang Lihua, mother and daughter, walked in one after another. Seeing this scene, they couldn't help exchanging glances.
What are these two talking about? One is "thank you" and the other is "not worthy".
Dugu's expression even changed slightly.
His Majesty's words "worry about the country" can be used to praise any official of the Han Dynasty, and there will be no problem.
Worrying about the country is what officials of the Han Dynasty should do.
But using it to praise Yang Jian is very problematic.
Yang Jian is not a person who should worry about the state of the Han Dynasty. He should squat in his hut obediently, ignore what is going on outside the window, and only read the books of sages. This is right.
Otherwise, you, a former powerful minister and a regent-level figure, are worried about what the country wants to do? Do you plan to wait for problems with the court's policies to directly replace it?
The Dugu family lightly stamped their feet. Although her husband always did some shameful things to fight for power and gain - in fact, throughout Yang Jian's entire history of ascendancy, all his strategies were basically upright. After all, they were also done by future generations.
The praised Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, if he could only be opportunistic and follow the trend, he would not have the ability to influence the general trend of the world and restore peace to the world. However, in the eyes of the Dugu family, their own children are obviously more important, so the misfortune of Yang Lihua's marriage and the status of her children
He died because his husband was ignorant. This can only be said that everyone has different opinions. But at least in the Dugu family's view, Yang Jian's temperament was very stable.
How come you haven't recognized your identity yet and are pointing fingers at His Majesty?!
My husband is so good in so many ways, why do you act so rashly now?
Yang Lihua was naturally aware of her mother's mood swings.
She knew very well that in her mother's heart, her father had never been a generational hero with one hand covering the sky, but had always been the courageous and knowledgeable son-in-law.
Dugu admired his temperament and broadmindedness, and she was really like a big sister who always opened her arms to protect him, fearing that he would die without knowing how he died under the wave of power.
Little did they know that my father was no longer the young man he was back then. He had gone through ups and downs, and Yang Jian definitely knew better than Dugu about what should be said and what should not be said.
not to mention······
The first time Yang Lihua came in, she saw the thoughtful look on His Majesty's face and the gestures he made immediately.
Pressing down slightly, that was the meaning that all the sisters in the harem knew, and His Majesty expressed her peace of mind.
Therefore, Yang Lihua was much calmer than Dugu. At this time, she gently tugged on Dugu's sleeve. Dugu was not a fool. Of course she understood, and immediately walked forward quickly: "This is the tea that Lihua just brought. The folk girl brewed it."
After receiving tea, I also invite your majesty and husband to drink tea to quench their thirst."
The use of tea brought by Yang Lihua naturally shows that there is no intention to poison His Majesty.
After all, the Dugu family came from a noble family, so they naturally paid great attention to this.
Of course Li Xingchen understood what the Dugu family meant. To be honest, he did not doubt that Yang Jian or the Dugu family really intended to harm him.
This is Jiangnan anyway.
Neither Yang Jian nor the Dugu family have any foundation here.
Li Xingchen would rather believe that Xiao Kui and others might cause rebellion.
What's more, the development of Han Dynasty is changing with each passing day, and Yang Jian and others are watching it. They may be aware of the various problems that are gradually emerging in society, but they also know in their hearts that the social development of Dahan has reached this stage.
A tiger has emerged, and with their thoughts and knowledge, it is impossible to control this tiger.
The only one who can control it is Li Xingchen.
Any person in this position may lead to turmoil rather than stability.
In this case, Yang Jian and others can make suggestions and express opinions, but they will never go into battle personally.
These guys are trying to outsmart each other.
If you go to compete with Li Xingchen for power, you may win, you may gain temporary prestige, but if this tiger loses control, it will only plunge the whole of China into war again. The person who caused all this will be the sinner of history!
Anyone who has reached the level of Yang Jian and others will no longer care about gold, silver and jewelry, because in their eyes, those are just a pile of scrap metal.
What they care about is their birth and posthumous names.
Yang Jian's current reputation has not been completely damaged, so there is no need for him to wade into troubled waters.
"This is Mingqian Longjing. Aiqing and his wife might as well give it a try." Li Xingchen said with a smile.
After Li Xingchen drank first, Yang Jian also took a sip and nodded:
“It has a refreshing aroma, it’s indeed a good tea!”
Dugu Shi and Yang Lihua also smiled, and the topic naturally turned to tea.
Longjing tea, also known as Yanshengsi tea, was widely known in history after the Song Dynasty.
This also made Li Xingchen lament what he had done to this society.
Originally, this was an era when people liked to drink camellia. As a result, His Majesty liked to drink clear tea, which led to the change in the harem, and the atmosphere in the outer court also changed, which in turn affected the entire society.
Under the influence of celebrity effect, who doesn’t want to taste the tea that His Majesty drinks?
Longjing, as a representative product of green tea, naturally came into being.
Of course, Li Xinchen had already seen Dahongpao from Fujian, Junshan Silver Leaf from Xiangzhou, Biluochun from Wujun, etc., and he even drafted these names himself. This can be regarded as Li Xinchen's understanding of this.
A small tribute to a history that has been changed beyond recognition.
Of course, it’s also for your own listening comfort.
"Today's scene is exactly like 'Don't miss your old friends and your homeland, and try new tea with new fires'." Li Xingchen couldn't help but smile, "In the new dynasty and the new atmosphere, I have a lofty vision, and I am still willing to watch the world become turbulent. My heart
I’m so relieved! It’s no wonder that I really regarded Aiqing as my opponent back then.”
Yang Jian was startled for a moment and felt a little ashamed.
The biggest mistake he and Yu Wenxian made when they had their initial split was that they did not really regard Li Xingchen, who was rising in the south, as an opponent, and as a result, they benefited from it.
However, there was no intention of blaming himself in Li Xingchen's words, which made Yang Jian completely relieved.
By testing new tea with new fire, Your Majesty is encouraging yourself to try to accept new ideas, new trends of thought, and look at this era with a new perspective.
Yang Lihua stretched out her hand and gently tapped the back of her mother's hand, which naturally meant, "Just let me rest assured!"
The expression on Dugu's face became much more relaxed. She smiled and patted her daughter. At the same time, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, your husband is indeed better than mine.
