The sailboat sailed on the river surface, and because it was going upstream, it moved slowly. In the cabin, Li Li was drinking tea while listening to Zhang Ying telling some anecdotes. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test

Zhang Ying is from Jiankang. He works in the Secretariat. He has come into contact with many official documents and has colleagues discussing current affairs, so he is a "inquiry".

Similar to later capital taxi drivers, they know everything.

Zhang Ying knew a lot of strange stories and rumors about powerful and officials. Now he came one by one, not only for entertainment, but also for Li Li to have a long experience.

For example, Zhang Wan, the inner historian of Yuzhang, who had just stepped down, was also known as "Hundred and Six Dukes". It was named after Xiao Yi, the king of Xiangdong, who asked about everything. Zhang Wan was missing six of them, so he was named.

There is also "Xahou Prostitute Clothes", which refers to the emperor's congregation of the emperor, Xiahou Dan, who was quite good at music in his later years and had more than a dozen prostitutes and concubines. When Xiahou Dan was entertaining guests, these prostitutes and concubines played music through the curtains.

So people call the curtains that are isolated from sight "Xiahou Prostitute".

This kind of knowledge seems irrelevant, but if you want to stay in the officialdom in the future, you must know it, otherwise you will be ridiculed and be unaware of it and even deliberately make things difficult for others.

For example, when talking about Zhang Wan, a foreign relative of the state, deliberately said "Hundred and Six Duke", you don't know, and you stupidly asked "Who is Bailiu Gong?" Others know that you are a person who has no knowledge, has no decent official connections, and don't even understand "common sense".

Li Li wanted to know this kind of "common sense", so Zhang Ying talked about everything, and what he is talking about now is an anecdote of the royal family.

First, about Poyang King Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan was once the Weiweiqing of the Guard Palace and stayed in the palace. He insisted on patroling and checking posts every night. As long as he found that the guards had any mistakes, he would be punished severely, and there would be a lot of noise.

This move is to let the emperor hear it and let the emperor know that he is doing his duty and responsibility.

Second, about the younger brother of King Poyang, Wulin Hou Xiaozi.

Xiao Zi served as the governor of Jiaozhou several years ago. He was entrusted with heavy taxes during his tenure, which made the local people furious.

At the end of the seventh year of Datong, three years ago, the Jiaozhou tyrant Li Ben raised an uprising and attacked the Jiaozhou Prefecture Zhilong Bian. It is said that Xiao Zi spent money to "buy the way" and was able to escape from Jiaozhou.

Li Ben occupied Jiaozhou and became emperor. The court transferred troops to Lingbiao to suppress the rebellion. The war was not going well. However, now the official army has recovered the Long Group and pursued Li Ben's party members.

Hearing this, Li Li thought of something and asked: "I wonder who the head commander of the official army to suppress the rebellion is?"

Zhang Ying thought about it and replied: "The new Jiaozhou Governor Yang Lu is the head coach, and the new Jiaozhou Sima Chen Baxian leads the army."

Sure enough, Chen Ba, who established the Chen Dynasty, now suppressed the rebellion in Jiaozhou!

Li Li thought so that he remembered Chen Baxian, a great man who started the cause of the Chen Dynasty from Lingnan, so he asked this question, but without saying anything, Zhang took a sip of tea and continued.

Third, about Xiao Yi, the King of Xiangdong.

Xiao Yi's uncle Wang Lin, the nine sons Wang Tong and Wang Zhi, were all famous scholars. Later, the King of Xiangdong changed his concubine Wang's younger brother to Wang Lin.

When Li Li heard this, he couldn't believe his ears and complained to King Xiangdong: Be careful, this is, how narrow is the mind?

In this way, you are too vicious to humiliate your uncle and cousin!

No wonder Wang Heng changed his name to Wang Lin. It turned out that you, the one-eyed dragon king, was dark in psychology, and he hated his cousins ​​to behave better than you and were famous. He used this secret trick to humiliate the other party.

Yi Ye Zhiqiu, and he understood the character of Xiao Yi, the king of Xiangdong.

Two years ago, he was lucky enough to be summoned by this person. The impression given to him by the other party was one-eyed dragon and the other was an elegant gentleman. Unexpectedly...

I didn't expect that my mind was so dark, and I felt like Yue Buqun in martial arts...

"The King of Xiangdong suffered from eye disease when he was a child. The emperor personally treated him, but the result was in vain." Zhang Ying said a while, and Li Li suddenly realized:

Because Xiao Yi was physically incomplete since childhood, his psychology gradually became incomplete.

This is understandable. After all, the ancient officialdom paid great attention to the appearance of officials, and being an official must be handsome. As a vassal king, the King of Xiangdong was blinded. Compared with his handsome brothers and cousins, this could easily make people feel inferior and extremely sensitive.

Li Li felt that if he dealt with the King of Xiangdong in the future, he would have to pay attention.

The fourth anecdote is still the King of Xiangdong.

The King of Xiangdong and the fifth brother, Luling King Xiao Xu, were like enemies, and had a very bad relationship with the sixth brother, Shaoling King Xiao Lun, because King Shaoling wrote a poem to satirize the King of Xiangdong's one-eyed eyes.

Hearing this, Li Li noticed that Zhang Ying missed something, not mentioning the "Xianggui Nei" breaking between King Xiangdong and King Luling.

It seems that Zhang Ying has already made a judgment on the reason why Zhan Liang's murder case was broken: Jia Cheng, a fugitive slave of the Poyang Palace, ran to Jingzhou to seek justice for King Luling, and it might be that the murder suspect Li Li was involved in it.

Li Li would not admit this. Then, when the other party mentioned the anecdote of King Xiangdong and deliberately did not mention the most famous "Xianggui Nei Ren" incident, it was probably a tactful reminder:

Perhaps the King of Xiangdong had already thought that it might be his Li Li who was the one who did it.

It's just that he has a low status, so he is too lazy to care about it.

But the thorn in my heart may exist. Of course, this is just Zhang Ying’s opinion. Without real evidence, it is just a reminder.

Seeing Li Li's thoughtful look, Zhang Ying knew that his gentle reminder had effect.

In fact, he heard of Li Li's name a few years ago.

The two cases that happened in Poyang were not mentioned, and Li Li's name was remembered by Zhang Ying, the Minister of State's Lingshi. He carefully considered the murder case of Zhan Liang, the Prince of Poyang, and felt that Li Li was extraordinary.

Now, seeing this person at once, he could continue talking.

Anecdote 5, King Xiao Xu of Luling.

Xiao Xu is the current crown prince and mother brother. He is extremely capable and good at riding and shooting. He is compared to the King of Rencheng by the emperor.

The King of Rencheng refers to the son of Emperor Wu of Wei, Cao Zhang, and King of Rencheng. Cao Zhang is known for his bravery among Cao Cao's sons.

Xiao Xu was the governor of Jingzhou at that time. Under his rule, Zhang Yankang, the governor of Wuning County, returned to Beijing. When he passed by Jiangling, he was imprisoned by Xiao Xu on the grounds that he was corrupt and abused the law while serving as the governor.

When the news reached Jiankang, the emperor ordered the provincial government to escort Zhang Yankang to Beijing to defend himself. As a result, Zhang Yankang escaped from prison and was seriously injured and died during the escape.

When Li Li heard this, he raised his eyebrows: Xiao Xu has something wrong.

Jun Governor Zhang was corrupt and abused the law when he was appointed? Why didn’t he deal with him? He started yelling when he left office?

If there is real evidence, how could you be afraid that the parties involved will come to Beijing to defend themselves?

The so-called jailbreak is afraid that it is not intentional release of people, then killing and silencing them, saying that they are escaping for fear of crime... Isn't this the ending I almost got?

The matter was obvious. The emperor asked Zhang Yankang to go to Beijing to defend himself. It was obvious that he did not believe his son's accusation against Zhang Yankang. Xiao Xu was afraid that Zhang Yankang would be exposed when he arrived in Jiankang, so he simply...

It seems that neither of these royal families is a fuel-efficient lamp, with a very scheming and a very dark hand.

There are levies and taxes (Marquis of Wulin), there are sensational masters (King of Poyang Xiao Fan), there are hypocrites (King of Xiangdong Xiao Yi), and there are murderers (King of Luling Xiao Xu).

As for the King Xiao Lun of Shaoling, who was violent and arrogant, Li Li heard Zhang Ying say that this person had encountered a funeral team on the way, so he took away the filial piety clothes and followed the spirit to cry.

He found an old man with a similar appearance to the emperor and asked him to put on his crown and treat him as his father. He first cried and then pulled off the crown and beat him up.

He also made a coffin to let the annoying assistant lie in, and then used a funeral cart to transport the coffin, causing several old women to cry with the cart, as if they were attending a funeral.

Such a deed is shocking. Although the emperor punishes him, he raises him high and gently puts him down.

Zhang Ying asked: "Does Li Lang know that King Shaoling once killed an official?"

"I don't know, let's talk?"

"In the early years of Datong, the Shaofu Chief He Zhitong submitted a memorial to impeach Shaoling, the then governor of Yangzhou, to exploit fishermen. Soon, He Zhitong was intercepted and killed by murderers in the streets near Jiankang City."

"Before He Zhitong died, he wrote the word "Shaoling" in blood. The emperor was furious and sent troops to surround the Shaoling Prince's Mansion and captured several assistant officials of the royal palace who killed He Zhitong on the order of Shaoling Prince."

"And he also deposed King Shaoling as a commoner, but soon he was re-elected, and everything was as before."

Speaking of this, Zhang Ying added: "Li Lang, King Shaoling regards the Shaofu Chief as a thorn in his eyes."

The Shaofu Prime Minister He Zhitong was dead in the early years of Datong. Now, Zhang Ying emphasized that "King Shaoling regards the Shaofu Prime Minister as a thorn in his eyes", which is obviously an implication.

What Zhang Ying wants to say is that King Xiao Lun of Shaoling regards Xu Jian, the current Shaofu Chief, as a thorn in his side.

Then, Li Li, who was able to become an official (actually an official) by currying favor with Xu Jian, must not be favored by King Shaoling.

Of course, with Li Li's current identity, he still cannot be seen by King Shaoling, and he is not even qualified to be hated by the other party, but he has to know what to do.

Speaking of this, Zhang Ying obviously reminded him by saying anecdotes: Brother, there are more than one mind, and the royal family has hatred each other, and the kings of the clan are not easy to deal with, so you must be careful on weekdays.

Don’t offend people unknowingly, you won’t know when someone is plotted against you or how you die.

Li Li heard Zhang Ying’s implication, but he felt bored about this kind of advice method of “speaking half of the words, you understand the other half yourself” and said in his heart:

If you have something to say, can you just say it? What if I can't understand it, then what?

Do I look like the kind of person who doesn’t listen to advice and is petty?

Li Li directly asked: "Zhang Lang...uh, Brother Zhang, although I am not stupid, this implication is easy to misunderstand. Can you say it directly when you remind me later?"

"Li Lang, I didn't say anything?" Zhang Ying looked at Li Li innocently. Li Li felt fighting spirit in his heart when he saw this:

Oh, fight with me, right?
