Chapter 718 The Emperor's Deep Meaning

After sorting out the relationship between the high officials in the court, Li Dongyang continued drinking wine and watching the play. The performance of the four kings was coming to an end. As King Rui finished writing, the other three kings also stopped.

There is a painting in front of them, with different styles and different content, but the theme is similar, and they all take peace as the idea.

After finishing the pen, the expressions of the four were not very good, as if they were very dissatisfied with their work, and there were doubts in their eyes.

The four paintings were quickly carried by the eunuchs to the emperor, and invited the emperor to look at them. After seeing them, the emperor frowned invisibly, and then returned to his expressionless expression.

If these four sets were to be said to be brilliant, it would be impossible. The emperor said that he did not have such a thick skin.

But now that they are all drawn, it is natural to judge whether they are good or bad, so let the ministers have a look and choose the No. 1 that they like.

So the eunuch held the painting around again, asking all the ministers to watch it, and then judged the one he liked the most.

Li Dongyang's eyes followed the eunuch's movement, and the bottom of his eyes flashed. He didn't think the emperor's action was random.

As an emperor, every move has a deep meaning, and the emperor's actions must have a deep meaning. You may be able to find it after reading it. Thinking of this, Li Dongyang read it more attentively.

No matter how the works are, each minister has his own excellent works, some are fair and just choices, while others are selfish.

Quarrels inevitably arise, among which King Qing's work is the most applauded, followed by King Rui.

Several neutral ministers actually chose King Rui's work at this moment.

Li Dongyang seems to understand when he sees this, and it is obvious that he is choosing the best work, but in fact, why not just look at the works of the candidates.

As ministers who have already stood in line, they will naturally choose someone they like. In this way, the neutral choices are worth thinking about.

In the neutral team, there were not only those who chose King Rui, but also King Qing, but very few chose Zhao Ding and Zhao Cheng.

It can be seen from the votes that Zhao Ding and Zhao Cheng are not as popular as the two emperor brothers.

After all, King Rui and King Qing took advantage of their age and early entry into the court, and their wrists should not be underestimated.

"Hehe, I seem to understand." Li Dongyang muttered to himself.

After hearing this, Duke Zhen asked quickly, "What do you understand?"

"The emperor is tall." Li Dongyang spit out four words in a breathy voice, Duke Zhen's eyes widened, not knowing what it meant.

Where is the emperor high?Lord Zhen Guo looked at the quarreling ministers, could it be high to let them quarrel.

Hehe, as long as he wants to let them fight, wouldn't he be taller?

This brain opening is really too big. It's a good chance that Li Dongyang didn't see this brain hole, otherwise he must ask the last question: What kind of jealousy is this eating!
The peaceful banquet was full of quarrels because of the four works. No matter how noisy the ministers were, the eunuch carried the works and turned them to Li Dongyang.

Li Dongyang looked at the four works carefully. To be honest, none of the four works caught his eyes, and the level of painting was just the same.

If you have to choose one of the four, it is that Zhao Cheng's paintings are not bad, no matter the artistry or layout, they are all top choices, except for the color matching of course.

Lord Zhen looked at the four works seriously, and then glanced at the officials with black lines on his face. Even if he didn't like these elegant things, he could still see the good and the bad.

It's really promising that just four things can make the ministers quarrel.

"Abstain from votes." Duke Zhen shouted angrily, the little eunuch was dumbfounded, can he still abstain from votes?Can't help but look at the emperor.

The emperor nodded slightly, indicating that the eunuch could abstain from voting, so the ministers were dumbfounded, and they could still do this, so what were they doing before?
Especially some neutral ministers, they will regret it to death. If they had known that they could abstain from voting, they would not have voted. Oops, they were fooled again.

When the paintings were displayed in front of King Yun, King Yun's mouth twitched as he looked at the four works, and then he glanced at King Rui. At this level, how could his face jump out to perform.

Or was it that King Rui was dizzy by his subordinates, and felt that his work had reached the level of a master.

This is really possible!Thinking of King Rui being unpopular since he was a child, the possibility of being fooled by his servants is very high.

No matter what he thought in his heart, King Yun still glanced at the emperor and silently chose to abstain from voting.

At that glance, the emperor's old face was hot, and he didn't expect his son's level to be so poor.

Originally I thought that even if it didn't reach the level of a master, it could at least be a top-level work, but now it seems that it is at most a middle level, far from the top level.

It's just that the works that the princes sent up for inspection are much better than these few. If someone ghostwrites, ouch, the emperor is depressed.

Concubine Du Gui looked at the expression on the emperor's face, and then at her son's work. She couldn't help but frown, and looked at King Qing with reproach.

King Qing felt bitter, could it be said that there was something wrong with the paint?It seems that the pigments used this time are different from the previous ones, and the color adjustment is not ideal, which affects the performance to a certain extent.

Since the four of them used the same paint, King Qing was embarrassed to bring it up first, so he could only grit his teeth and endure it.

In the end, the results were judged, King Qing got the most votes, and when the result was announced, King Qing blushed a little, as if he had been slapped.

Because of being given sympathetic eyes by his good brother, the emperor felt unhappy, so he left the table early.

As soon as the emperor left, Concubine Du Gui also withdrew, and the banquet entered a free stage.

The dignified ministers sitting in their seats relaxed and began to chat with their friends while holding their cups.

The wives who usually get along with each other also left their seats and joined together. Sitting there, Mrs. Lin quickly gathered several wives, and everyone chatted happily.

Li Dongyang also came here, Rui Wang Qing Wang Zhao Ding and Zhao Cheng, the four brothers came together, they didn't seize the opportunity to have an in-depth exchange with Li Dongyang before, this time they want to exchange.

It's just that there are four of them, which makes Li Dongyang the focus of everyone, and everyone is watching how Li Dongyang chooses.

Li Dongyang looked at the four people who came over with a smile, and then looked at the wine in their glasses, what can he say, they are here to toast, not to fight.

So Li Dongyang held up the cup, just drinking, who is afraid of others, and when he got angry, he poured you all down.

The four of them were all there, and no one could say the words of wooing, but if they left like this, they were worried that Li Dongyang would be wooed by others.

Li Dongyang's current combat strength is obvious to all, and coupled with Li Dongyang's identity, no matter who they are, they are the target of their wooing, and they must not be wooed away by their brothers.

The four of them refused to leave, so Li Dongyang played tricks and drank one cup after another. If you don't leave, we will drink. If you don't drink, we will leave.

The four kings were not fools, they soon discovered Li Dongyang's intentions, it would be too embarrassing if they really wanted to drink too much, besides, they wanted to win over other courtiers, so they couldn't hang themselves on this tree.

In the end, the four of them left the stage tacitly, so let's all go, as for the future, each will rely on his own ability.
