Shangguan Yi's face was unstable. He also understood his position in Li Chengqian's heart. He studied hard for ten years, just to be a gold medal for one day, and to show his ambitions in his career. However, since he joined the Eastern Palace, Li Chengqian asked him to do something? He either asked him to recite poems at a banquet or wrote articles for him to copy. Later, he pretended to be a scholar and entered the chamber of commerce of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. When he remembered, he called him to the Eastern Palace to ask about the situation of the newspaper. If he couldn't think about it, he was like there was no such person in the Eastern Palace.

The change in Shangguan Yi's expression was enough to reflect his inner struggle. Li Yan was secretly happy. Everyone in this world is a slaughter. As long as there is a slaughter, there will be loopholes in this person's psychological state. Merchants can be favored for profit, and scholars can be favored for reputation, and for strategists who are in love with the world, the biggest slaughter for them is to allow them to display their talents.

Li Yan's tone changed from stern to gentle, "I know you are the one around the prince, but I still brought you to Yizhou. Do you know why?"

Shangguan Yi looked up at Li Yan and shook his head.

"Because I need a capable official who can help me govern Yizhou, because I don't want to see a talent for governing the world buried in a small newspaper."

"Your Highness has a high regard for Shangguan Yi. The minister is just a scholar who is good at writing and writing!" Shangguan Yi's eyes calmed down. Li Yan's words were indeed a great temptation to him, but the Confucianism of a wise minister who does not serve the second master still calmed him down.

Li Yan was a little disappointed, and his plan failed? Looking at Shangguan Yi's eyes, Li Yan saw a special light and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

"The minister must thank Your Highness for fulfilling his loyalty and righteousness, and letting me leave my name in history!" Shangguan Yi's expression did not change.

Qin Huaiyu was already furious, "Then I will kill you for your highness!" After that, he raised his knife and waved it to Shangguan Yi.

"Slow!" Just as Qin Huaiyu's blade reached mid-air, a clear voice came from the door, but Cui Yingying stood at the door with a smile on her face and said, "A scholar is not afraid of death, but why should he be afraid of death? Your Highness, Shangguan Yi is a true Confucian scholar!"

Li Yan was not happy at first, and the little girl was talking for Shangguan Yi. Li Yan glared at her and said, "Yingying, why are you messing around?"

Cui Yingying rolled her eyes back at Li Yan, walked to Shangguan Yi and said, "I haven't finished speaking yet! Unfortunately, she is a corrupt scholar!"

Shangguan Yi looked angry in his eyes and said, "What does the princess mean?" He has been familiar with the words of Confucius and Mencius since he was a child. The most sacred thing in his heart is the four words "loyalty, righteousness, benevolence and filial piety". Now Cui Yingying calls him a corrupt scholar, how can he not be angry?

Cui Yingying was not anxious or slow: "Let me ask you, who was the first monarch Confucius served?"

"It's Duke Zhao of Lu!"

"Who is the second one?"

"Duke Jing of Qi!"

"Who is the third one?"

"Duke Ding of Lu!"

"Who is the fourth one?"

"Duke Ling of Wei!" Shangguan Yi answered in a slight manner.

After asking, Cui Yingying said, "Why did Confucius change to four monarchs to serve?"

Cui Yingying said this, Li Yan understood Cui Yingying's intention and smiled and looked at her and continued.

Shangguan Yi suddenly felt cold sweat, even more frightened than Li Yan exposes his detailed identity just now. "That is... that naturally, it is impossible to promote benevolence and rule in front of these monarchs, so I find another monarch who can appreciate him!"

"Hmph, is it wrong for me to say you are a corrupt scholar? It is true that loyal ministers do not serve the second master, but wise ministers choose the master and serve the good birds and trees. You don't even understand this principle. I don't think you are a wise minister!" Cui Yingying walked to Li Yan and said, "Your Highness, why keep such a person? Let him leave, so as not to waste the food in the royal palace!"

Li Yan was very happy. Shangguan Yi's face was not much different from the braised pork elbows. Cui Yingying blinked at him again. Li Yan understood, "The princess's words made me realize suddenly, Jin Daqian!"

"I'm here!" Jin Daqian immediately bowed to accept the order.

"Give him some money to go on the road and let him go back to Chang'an to serve the prince!"

Shangguan Yi's face began to turn green, but she still couldn't erase her face and followed Jin Daqian out.

"You are really ungrateful. There are countless scholars in this newspaper who want to come to Yizhou with Your Highness. You are so excited!" After leaving the door, Jin Daqian did not forget to continue to attack Shangguan Yi. Jin Daqian's code of conduct was very simple, and he would be unhappy for those who made Your Highness unhappy.

After walking all the way, Shangguan Yi was scolded by Jin Daqian all the way. When he received his usual severance payment, he suddenly felt his whole heart was empty.

In the main hall, Li Yan smiled and said to Cui Yingying: "The princess is so smart. Why didn't I think of using this method to let him stay?"

"Stay?" Cui Yingying looked confused, "Why keep him?"

Li Yan said: "You use provocation to scold him for being worthless just to get rid of his arrogance. Can he use it for me?"

"No, I just think he is sour and rotten. I deliberately angered him. Who made him so embarrassed!" Cui Yingying said with her big eyes.

"Ah!" Facing Cui Yingying's innocent eyes, Li Yan was completely defeated.

In the backyard, Shangguan Yi, who had been wrapped in a package, sighed and walked out. Cui Yingying's words completely destroyed his beliefs. He suddenly felt that he was ridiculous. He had been reading for more than ten years and couldn't even understand the truth that a little girl knew. He thought about returning to the East Palace and burying what he learned throughout his life. He also thought about the governor of Yizhou in Li Yan's mouth. This huge feeling of gap was as uncomfortable as if a can of sour vinegar was poured on his heart.

After leaving the palace, Shangguan Yi sighed again at Yizhou City, which was no less than Chang'an. He regretted that he really wanted to give himself a few mouths.

Shangguan Yi, who walked towards the Yizhou city gate, did not notice Jin Daqian was hiding in an alley and watching him, and then trotted back to the royal palace from the side gate.

At this time, Li Yan and Cui Yingying had already returned to the southern courtyard. It turned out that they had sent off the wife and lady of the local prominent family. Cui Yingying saw Li Yan walking in the main hall and was hearing Shangguan Yi's bold words that were ready to die. In order to vent her anger for Li Yan, she attacked Shangguan Yi like that.

"How did your Highness know that he is a talent?" Cui Yingying has always been very worried about this issue.

Of course, Li Yan couldn't say that history was just written. He said, "I heard from others!"

"That Yingying really delayed Your Highness's major affairs!" Cui Yingying said apologetically.

Li Yan hugged this little woman in his arms and was moved. How could he bear to blame the woman who only thought about her husband? He said, "There are so many talents in the world, just find another one!"

"Your Highness!" Jin Daqian's voice sounded outside.

"How is it?" The two separated awkwardly. Cui Yingying punched him gently and walked into the side room. Li Yan thought that it was time to set up a notification system, as this would be too no privacy.

Li Yan came out and asked, "He's gone?"

"Yes, Your Highness, he just turned around one step and three times when he left, and seemed very reluctant to leave!"

Li Yan smiled, "Cui Yingying is really a mistake!"

The city gate was right in front of me. As long as you take a step, you can leave Yizhou City. However, Shangguan Yi's foot was lifted and dropped, and he couldn't take that step. A voice in his heart kept telling him that he should go back and apologize to Li Yan and stay in Yizhou from now on, but the stubbornness in his bones made him unable to let go of his fragile self-esteem.

"Zhuge Wolong, Zhuge Wolong, how lucky you are!" Looking at the magnificent Yizhou word on the city gate, Shangguan Yi sighed and finally raised his feet. At this moment, a sound of horse hooves sounded rapidly. He turned around and looked at Li Yan, who was coming towards him first.

"Shangguan Yi, this is a thousand miles away from Chang'an. When will you hike to Chang'an? This is a good horse from the grassland, so I will give it to you!" As he approached, Li Yan dismounted and handed over the reins of a batch of brown horses.

"Your Highness, how... how did this make it happen!" Shangguan Yi pushed the reins back.

Li Yan said: "Are you still blaming the princess? She just vented her anger for me and said that. I still hope you can stay in Yizhou to help me, but if you insist on returning to Chang'an, just accept this horse!" Li Yan understood that Shangguan Yi needed a step at this time.

Sure enough, after hearing Li Yan's words, Shangguan Yi said excitedly: "How dare I blame the princess? Every word of the princess's words made Shangguan Yi ashamed. Shangguan Yi was reading poetry and books in vain, but he didn't understand this principle!"

"Then are you willing to stay and play for me?" Li Yan asked expectantly.

Shangguan Yi bowed and said, "If Your Highness does not abandon you, I am willing to work hard for Your Highness!"

"Hahaha..." Li Yan laughed and put the reins in Shangguan Yi's hand, "What are you waiting for? Let me go back!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" Shangguan Yi said tremblingly. When the loyal minister met the good lord, many scholars had a dream at this time. Now, Shangguan Yi finally found a home.

After returning to the palace, Li Yan and the three of them were still there, but the atmosphere was obviously different at this time. In a harmonious situation, Li Yan said, "I also told you about the situation in Yizhou just now. Does Shangguan Yi have any solutions?"

After pondering for a while, Shangguan Yi said, "Now Gao Quan is clearly giving his superior a warning. I agree with His Highness's method of trying to get. Rampantly deposing the officials of Yizhou will only let them unite and fight against His Highness. However, we are showing weakness on the surface, but we also have to make a secret arrangement. First, we must find out which officials are not from the same group of them, and use righteousness to win them over to our side. Second, the custom of the prominent clans in Yizhou has long existed. These prominent clans cannot be one mind. We must understand the grievances and grievances in the inner world, so that we can use the conflicts between them to separate them. Third, we must first cut off Gao Quan's wings and finally turn back to deal with him. This will be much easier."

Li Yan nodded: "These are easy to say but difficult to do!"

"Your Highness, let me leave this matter to the lower lord. I will definitely hand over a loyal Yizhou to your highness!" Shangguan Yi took the initiative to ask.

"Okay! I will now grant you the position of Chief Secretary of the Shu Palace and the general administration of Yizhou!" Li Yan said.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Li Yan looked at Qin Huaiyu again, "Tomorrow you and I go to Zhechong Mansion!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" Qin Huaiyu said.

Finally, Li Yan turned to Jin Daqian: "You are now purchasing land and farming fields, and build workshops according to the Shengtang Workshop in Chang'an. The location should be as hidden as possible. As for where there is land here, you should ask Gao Quan as the butler of the Shu Palace. I think he will not help this little busy."

"Yes!" Kim Daqian said.
