Zhu Yuanzhang can see my dreams

Chapter 187 187 To put it bluntly, it’s still for power

Li Shanchang also held the poem "The Rolling Water of the Yangtze River Passing East" written by Wang Buli.

He always felt that Wang Buli was really not writing about the Three Kingdoms, but about the people in the late Yuan Dynasty.

It’s a word borrowed from the past to describe the present!

In addition to this, Li Shanchang also doubted that such a free and easy poem was really created by Wang Buli?

He couldn't believe it at all.

But with such a good word, who would be willing to give it to a prince-in-law to become famous?

Does his king Buli deserve to have people fawn over him like this?

It’s absurd to think about.

But when he thought that this poem was written by Wang Buli, Li Shanchang felt even more absurd.

Everyone knows that no one can be better than the Prince Consort in solving cases, but writing lyrics?

Li Shanchang put down the paper in his hand. He was unwilling to withdraw from the peak of power, so he wanted to return to the court.

Li Shanchang looked down on people like Liu Bowen who retreated from the rapids, and Liu Bowen was also Lao Zhu who switched to Lao Zhu out of desperation.

Whenever anyone mentions the words Prince Consort, everyone thinks they are talking about Wang Buli, but no one thinks they are talking about Li Qi.

But Li Shanchang understood it through Wang Buli's poem.

Li Shanchang felt that he still wanted to return to the center of the court, and any unwillingness was all false.

It's obvious that I'm the number one consort, it's obvious that I'm the one who came first.

What does Wang Buli have?

A commoner who was lucky enough to marry a princess, his father was a country doctor with some skills.

Still for power.

"Impossible!" Li Qi patted his chest and said, "I am not a three-year-old child who can be deceived so easily."

This made Li Qi extremely unhappy.

"How can he be able to express this with emotion?"

I really can’t let it go.

"Shut up."

"But he is not from Huaixi!"

Not to mention the emperor, even the officials below are trying to pass on the family inheritance to my generation.

"Dad, do you also think this was not written by Wang Buli?"

There is no better person in the entire Ming Dynasty than the Duke of South Korea. This is the number one hero of the Ming Dynasty!

The family has a death-free ticket, and he is married to a princess, so he has double protection.

My eldest son, the Duke of Korea, will inherit the title in the future.

Because he can't let go!

The two of you are not enemies, but allies, real relatives, and even more so, His Majesty’s sons-in-law. You must unite, set an example as your elder brother-in-law, and put away your look of looking down on others!

Your father and I were also small officials in the county government back then. Fortunately, we took refuge in His Majesty and were able to achieve the status we have today. "

Facts prove that everyone is indeed talking about Wang Buli.

Wang Buli is also worthy of being compared with me!

His family background is nothing, and he still wants me to take the initiative to get close to him?

He should be the one to lick me and beg me, my elder brother-in-law, to protect him!

And you want me to lick him?

Even if he had a son like Sun Zhongmou, it would still be better than his own son.

"He sees things more clearly than your father and I. If you dare to underestimate him, my father will help him count the money because he is afraid that you will be sold by him in the future."

Li Shan sighed: "Son, listen to what dad said. If you want to live a more prosperous life in the future, take the initiative to get closer to him."

This is why Li Shanchang spent all his energy on assisting Zhu Yuanzhang's career in his early years and relaxed his education on his son.

Li Qi didn't understand his father's thoughts at all.

This is the opposite of Tiangang!

Therefore, Li Qi was extremely confused by his father's words.

Li Shanchang and Zhu Yuanzhang were from the same hometown.

Li Shanchang thinks that if Liu Bowen does not have the support of the emperor, he is worthy of wrestling with me in the court?

Now that Liu Bowen is dead, Li Shanchang did not expect that he would also be left out in the cold by the emperor!

Could it be that you feel that no one in the world can control you anymore?

Just the fact that Li Shanchang and Lao Zhu are fellow villagers, and he was awarded a title as a civil servant and ranked first is enough to prove his ability.

Once a person gets a taste of power, it is difficult to let it go, even if he is seventy or eighty years old.

So over the years, Li Shanchang has always wanted to come back and take control of power.

But Wang Buli, a commoner prince-in-law, immediately overshadowed his reputation as the number one prince-in-law.

Li Shanchang read Wang Buli's poems carefully again. White-haired fisherman and woodcutter on the river bank, used to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze.

What kind of bullshit are the Huaixi Party members and the Zhejiang East Party members fighting against each other for the right to speak on national affairs!

It's all about power!

Only the power struggle is real.

Why should I defend him?

On the contrary, his wife was happy that her sister married a commoner, because it proved her father's love for her.

Everyone is not on the same level within the Ming Dynasty's system.

"How can such words come out of your mouth!" Li Shanchang's tone was already very unkind: "Remember, you and Wang Buli are brothers-in-law, so you must protect him in front of outsiders.

Li Qi didn't understand what his father meant.

"Wang Buli married a princess, so he is naturally a member of the Huaixi people, and his status is more important than fellow villagers like you and me."

Li Shanchang was disgusted when he saw his son's jealous appearance.

What ability does Hu Weiyong have to become prime minister?

Therefore, Li Shanchang is extremely disgusted with Hu Weiyong's wooing. He is worthy of wooing me, who is he?

However, Li Shanchang's brothers and sons did not think so and moved closer to Hu Weiyong one after another.

Especially Zhu Yuanzhang did not give Li Shanchang the opportunity to return to the center of power.

"Son, you have to understand that the insignificance of a human being is like a drop in the ocean in the long river of history. Every understatement may be the magnificent life of the ancients!

The dragons and phoenixes among those people are still struggling, how can we, the fish eyes, have a smooth life? "

"Dad is the number one hero of the Ming Dynasty. If you are like a fish, who will be the best among men?"

Li Shanchang couldn't help but sigh when he saw the disobedient and angry look on his son's face.

Why couldn't he understand the tactful words spoken by his father?

Why is he always so confident?

Who gave it to him?

Li Shanchang wanted to save face for his son, but he just couldn't understand the various hints.

Do I have to tell him clearly?

But Li Shanchang couldn't guess which one in the family was the school inspector.

All he knew was that there was, and never just one.

The conversation between their father and son might have been monitored.

Li Shanchang was very troubled by this, so he could only say:

"If you could write a poem like this, your father and I wouldn't be too lazy to talk about you.

No need to answer, you just can't! "

Li Qi held it in his heart for a while, wanting to refute what he could, but couldn't, so he could only say:

"Dad, this is not necessarily written by Wang Buli."

"This poem is enough to be passed down through the ages. Even if you find someone to write it for you, you won't be able to write it."

Li Qi felt that his father was confused. In order to return to the center of the imperial court, he wanted his son to flatter Wang Buli, that little official!

How shameless is this?

Now Hu Weiyong is doing a good job and is favored by the emperor. Anyone who impeaches him will be removed. Even Wang Guangyang cannot avoid it, and a pattern of independent prime minister has been formed.

You old man can't go back, so stop dreaming.

What's more, his cousin married the daughter of the Hu Weiyong family. The relationship between the two parties is even closer, but they are actually fellow villagers and in-laws.

Do we, the Li family, need to curry favor with a consort who was born as a county official?

What energy is behind him?

He, Wang Buli, doesn’t even have a network of connections!

Our family's network of relationships is denser than a spider's web.

It’s true that the older you get, the less confident you become.

Our old Li family is at its peak, and the titles and death-free certificates will last forever with the Ming Dynasty. What are we afraid of?

Of course, until Li Qi inherited the title, he would not dare to refute his father's words.

Because he is only the eldest son, not the eldest son.

"Dad is getting older and you are still young. He cannot take care of you for your whole life. You need to know who you should get close to and who you should not get close to."

Li Qi nodded, of course he knew who he was close to.

Hu Weiyong, the Prime Minister of the current dynasty, is there any second choice in the world?

No more.

Li Shanchang felt very uncomfortable when he saw his son's expression. He knew that his words were in vain and he could only hope that he would live longer.

He remembered that his younger sons were still studying in the Imperial College.

A few of them also clamored to go to the north for training, but Li Shanchang did not stop them.

If the eldest son fails, then we can only hope that the other sons can get close to Wang Buli. If one is selected, he and Wang Buli can be regarded as masters and disciples. (He understood it to be the seat teacher of the imperial examination)

In the future, if there are a few students in the north who can achieve great results, they will definitely thank Wang Buli. This is also a network of interpersonal relationships. "I heard that the third child learned the twelfth routine of radio gymnastics. Go and call him over."

This was the first time that Li Xing and others were called into the meeting hall, and they seemed extremely excited. In the past, his eldest brother was alone.

"Dad, why did you call me here?"

"Yes." Li Shanchang asked his three sons to sit aside: "Tell me more about the school's discussion about Prince Consort Wang Buli's selection of people to go to the north to discuss."

The third child, Li Xing, nodded repeatedly and spoke again, telling all the rumors that came to mind.

Li Shanchang finally understood. The prince actually didn't want so many people to go to the north for training. Wang Buli was willing to send people there, just in case someone became talented.

The main thing is to raise Gu.

"You go too."

Li Xing was overjoyed when he heard this: "Dad, can I really go?"

"You prepare well. If you are selected, go there. If you don't get selected, dad will not use his own face to ask Wang Buli."

Li Shanchang told his third son:

"You also know that our family only has one title, and you cannot inherit the title of the Duke of Korea, so Dad wants you to go to the north and try your luck.

As long as you can make some solid achievements, dad will go to beg the emperor for you even if he is willing to sacrifice his face. At the same time, he will also work hard for the prince consort, Bu Li. Do you understand? "

"Father, I understand."

Li Xing took advantage of these words because he knew that it was certain that his eldest brother would inherit the title after marrying the princess.

Unless the princess cannot give birth to a child, the second brother will have a chance.

No matter how hard it is, it won't be his turn.

That's why Li Xing held his breath and signed up to go to the north to practice. At the same time, he finally learned the twelfth version of radio gymnastics, which was many versions ahead of the others.

"Well, okay, dad believes you can make it." Li Shanchang stood up and patted his third son:

"Your eldest brother is destined to be a waste. He can only inherit my title by being honest. This is a rule set by His Majesty and we cannot change it.

But you three are also my sons, Li Shanchang. I was able to make my way from a small official back then, so can you.

Third child, especially you, I know you are a smart person and you have a lot of ambitions. Dad is very optimistic about you, so follow Wang Buli and work hard. "

"father."

Li Xing was young after all, and the corners of his eyes became moist at his father's heartfelt words.

The boss Li Qi was very dissatisfied with his father's words. What do you mean I am a waste?

I don't like hearing this.

Li Shanchang has four sons, and he also hopes that his other three sons can have a place to stand. Otherwise, the main line of the big family will be strong, and the branches will sooner or later become vassals and slaves of the main line. Their status will not even be as good as the slaves of the main line.

What he most wanted his son to hear were the last words he just said.

That clown Hu Weiyong became prime minister. Li Shanchang knew that His Majesty had a big plan, but he couldn't understand what he wanted to do.

Therefore, he does not want his relatives to be too closely connected with him.

Nai He had kept the marriage secret from himself before, and Li Shanchang also understood that he had no power, and even his family was unwilling to listen to him.

Not to mention everyone else.

After all, it’s still power!

"You're fine."

Li Shanchang comforted his crying son.

The former prime minister held a family meeting at home, and the current prime minister Hu Weiyong also felt strange holding the poem in his hand.

Is this really written by Wang Buli?

"Prime Minister Hu, Wang Buli, the consort, is too noisy." Chen Ning said with an unkind expression, "This is a slap in the face to us Huaixi people."

Even though Chen Ning is not a fellow member, he still occupies a considerable position in this group.

The emperor stopped the imperial examination selection system and switched to the imperial examination system. Scholars all over the world moved closer to the Huaixi Group, and many people were selected, making the Huaixi Group more powerful.

Compared with the Zhedong Group, their power has become increasingly weak, and even scholars cannot win over them.

After all, the easiest place to get a Jinshi is in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

But what Wang Buli did, and the public remarks he made in the Imperial College, also confused a large number of children of the Huaixi Group.

They have no chance to inherit the family title. Is it possible that they have to give up their comfortable life and go to the north to gain experience?

The fact is that these noble sons of Huaixi who have no chance to inherit the title are really tempted.

This allowed Hu Weiyong and other vested interest groups to break through their defenses.

The bitter cold land in the north is waiting for you to go. When the time comes, you will be so cold that you will cry for your father and mother when you come back. Moreover, Hu Weiyong and others have also made up their minds and will not easily transfer these people back.

Hu Weiyong shook his head. He was good at it. Wang Buli didn't have the energy to do such a thing.

It was all because of His Majesty's behind-the-scenes support, just as he had supported the extremely unconventional Yang Xian, and finally killed this man who had the chance to become prime minister.

Now Hu Weiyong is also waiting for Wang Buli to escape.

However, after this kid was done, he wrote another poem like this to show that he had no intention of coveting power at all.

At the age of eighteen, he has the spirit of an eighty-year-old and always wants to survive.

A person of several decades like me has no pursuits and passion!

Without any enterprising spirit, Hu Weiyong had no idea what to do.

Wang Buli, can you be a little enterprising?

Do you really think that if you marry a princess, you will have no worries about food and drink for the rest of your life?

Although this is the fact, you are a grown man, can't you be a little pursuing and like to eat soft rice so much?

A man must find his own way no matter what, otherwise if you rely solely on women, you will have to look at your wife's face even if you take a concubine.

Hu Weiyong was really convinced by Wang Buli's operation.

How can there be people in the world who are so content with the status quo?

Which of them is content with the status quo and can reach this point today?

Once a person seizes the opportunity and has a higher stage, he will only think about going to a higher stage to show his true qualities as a man.

Rather than having a wife and children lying on the hot bed every day.

Not pursuing it!

Hu Weiyong had always wanted to wait for Wang Buli to make a mistake, but this kid acted within the scope of his authority.

It's not his responsibility to do anything more, so he doesn't bother to take care of it.

"Your motherfucker."

Thinking of this, Hu Weiyong couldn't help but cursed:

"This kid is too slippery!"

"Prime Minister Hu, is it possible that you just sit back and watch so many of the pillars of the imperial court go to the north to work as pawns? Isn't this a case of overqualifying them for their talents? I heard that Duke Cao has begun to train them according to the standards of soldiers."

Chen Ning should not say something too obvious, but treating scholars as soldiers is a serious problem.

Hu Weiyong also understands the meaning of this, but currently no one dares to impeach officials.

Last time the Minister of Rites was killed with a cane because of Wang Buli. In addition, many people opposed Wang Buli's appointment as the consort last time, and many officials were beaten.

Now that Wang Buli is His Majesty's favorite, I'm afraid we can't easily find fault with him.

His eldest brother is still studying in the Imperial College. Is it possible that he should be recommended as an official?

Hu Weiyong didn't want to do this, at least not in a short period of time.

Otherwise, the targeting will be too obvious, and His Majesty can see it at a glance.

In addition, Wang Buli, his eldest brother, has not done anything outstanding that can be recommended so far.

It's hard to find him.

Hu Weiyong also sent people to check on his eldest brother. In recent days, he didn't even go to the Imperial College very often. He was playing with his son at home every day, or taking pills.

These two brothers are really less enterprising than the other.

Without desire, one is strong.

It is difficult for ordinary people to grasp their handle.

Hu Weiyong was speechless towards the two brothers.

Because according to his understanding, after Wang Buli became the consort, he would definitely show off himself vigorously and then be promoted to a higher position.

As a result, after Wang Buli became a prosecutor, except for one incident of killing an envoy in the street, other non-urgent cases were put off as long as possible, and his performance was not impressive at all.

Not only Zhu Yuanzhang was observing Wang Buli, but many people were also observing him.

"This matter should indeed be corrected. The country spends so much money to train them, not just to let them fight."

"What Prime Minister Hu said is absolutely true!" Chen Ning nodded repeatedly. If things go on like this, Huaixi Group's interests will be damaged.

Hu Weiyong nodded, this matter must be taken care of.

Otherwise, if this group of people would not follow him, how could the network of relationships become denser?

Of course he would not believe that Zhu Yuanzhang would not be willing to burn it just because the spider webs blocking his eyes were dense.

After Zhu Yuanzhang burned the spider webs for power, he still had the courage to kill all the spiders in the webs!

Hu Weiyong is also weaving a spider web for power. Everyone has the same goal.
