Happy Little Scholar

Kyoto is the capital of Jingguo. It is the most prosperous and prosperous place in Jingguo, and it is also the holy place in the hearts of Jingguo literati.

There are many wealthy families and scholars here, which attracts countless Jingguo students. Compared with places outside the capital, there are undoubtedly more opportunities here.

Kyoto, somewhere in the private garden of a famous scholar.

Dozens of young officials were scattered throughout the garden, in small groups, laughing and chatting with each other.

Somewhere, a young man in Tsing Yi frowned and said, "No matter how you look at Mr. Li, he doesn't look like a traitor. Counting it down, he has done so many things for our Jingguo in the past few years. Even you and me, You’ve benefited a lot from it, so why did you become a traitor?”

"He has repeatedly tried his best to prevent His Majesty the King of Shu from entering the capital and obstructing His Majesty from confirming the position of the East Palace. He must have some kind of wolfish ambition..." A person next to him flashed his eyes, shook his head, and said: "You can't even see the Grand Tutor and several others." Don’t even the great scholars believe it?”

When the young official heard this, hesitation quickly appeared on his face.

In other places in the garden, everyone's conversation was also limited to the Qingjun side issue that was making a fuss today.

"When it comes to the position of prince, His Royal Highness the King of Shu is the orthodox one, in line with the ancestral system, and in line with the ethical principles..."

"Although the eldest princess's talents are not inferior to those of men, she is still a woman after all. It is not an option to continue like this."

"He thought that relying on His Majesty's favor, he could intervene in the establishment of the crown prince. What is he other than a traitor?"

"Such a sycophant usually doesn't end well..."

…

In a pavilion somewhere in the garden, two old men were sitting opposite each other, playing chess.

After the old man holding the white piece dropped a piece, he said: "Brother Chu has never paid attention to these court affairs. Why is he so radical this time? Strange, strange..."

The old man holding the black piece picked up a chess piece, thought for a moment before placing it down, and said: "Not to mention that Brother Chu is a little strange, but the position of the East Palace should not continue to be vacant. The eldest son of the emperor has entered the East Palace. It’s the right way. How could a woman control government affairs for so long..."

Snapped!

The old man holding the white piece suddenly dropped the chess piece and said angrily: "A woman takes charge..., Your Majesty's move is really stupid. Women's Federation, Women's College, look at what she did, what a mess. thing……"

"I was visiting an old friend a few days ago. The old friend's granddaughter actually told me that the gentleman from the women's college told them that parents with single eyelids could not have children with double eyelids. This is nonsense. Your Majesty and Concubine Cui are both single. Eyelids, His Highness the King of Shu, I have seen it with my own eyes, it is clearly double eyelids..."

He said in an angry tone: "When I finish this part, I must hand over a memorial and read it carefully in this women's college!"

"It's better to do the things at hand first." The old man opposite didn't pay much attention to what he said. After landing another sunspot, he smiled and said: "Brother Zhao, you lose."

…

"Although the Zeng family's house is big, it's not an option for you to live here all the time." Li Yi looked at Zui Mo opposite and asked, "Why don't you just move there? When did you want to live here? Two days is fine.”

She shook her head and said, "I will never abandon sister Ruoqing."

Li Yi comforted him: "Who said you should separate? When the time comes, if you move in together, you can still live together."

"That's nothing. You agree, but Sister Ruoqing still doesn't agree." She turned her head, looked at Wan Ruoqing and said, "You think so, Sister Ruoqing?"

Wan Ruoqing just smiled and did not answer.

Li Yi looked at her and said, "Okay, but the old lady has been talking about you for a long time. Let me take you to meet her at some time."

"Ah, Mrs. Li's wife?" Her expression immediately became a little flustered.

Li Yi nodded and said, "If you don't go, I will have to bring the old lady to see you."

"This matter..." She stood up, her face even more flustered and nervous, and hesitantly said: "I, I, I haven't brushed my teeth today..."

Seeing her running into the house in panic, Li Yi could only shake his head. He understood her concerns. It was naturally not easy to force her on such a thing.

After she left, the smile on Wan Ruoqing's face gradually faded. She looked at him with some worry and said, "I have heard all the rumors outside. Mrs. Chen also asked me to give you a message. Don't talk to those people." People are in direct conflict, is the matter really that serious? "

"Don't worry, this little trouble will be solved soon." Li Yi stood up and looked at the closed door. He estimated that Zui Mo would take a long time to brush his teeth this time, and said hello to Xiao Cui. Then he looked at Wan Ruoqing and said, "Let's go out for a walk."

It was early May and the weather was not that hot yet. After leaving Zeng Mansion, Wan Ruoqing comforted him and said, "Zui Mo must still be a little worried in her heart. I have been persuading her these days to come and spend some time with her." After thinking about it, I will agree to move there.”

Li Yi turned his head, looked at her, and asked, "What about you?"

"Me?" Wan Ruoqing was startled and said, "After all, I have lived here for a long time, and I am still used to Yangliu Lane. I will probably move back there again. The house is too big, and with just a few people living there, it is always a little deserted."

"It won't be deserted when there are more people." When he walked to the door of Goulan, Li Yi smiled and said, "You go in first, I have something to do, for a while... forget it, let's talk about it later."

Wan Ruoqing looked at him and asked, "Will you come back soon?"

"Let's see..." Li Yi wanted to say let's see what happens, but when he saw her looking at him, he swallowed the words that were about to come to his throat and nodded, "Come here."

On the street, the sloppy old man limped behind him, and his speed was not slow. He shook his head and said, "When you are young, you should do what you think in your heart. It is better to regret now than to lament in old age..."

Li Yi looked at his legs and feet and said, "Go to find the second uncle every day, but you can't beat him. Why do you do this?"

"What do young people know?" The sloppy old man curled his lips in disdain and said, "If I meet that Taoist nun again, I can let her help me..."

Li Yi stopped without listening to the master's boasting, because the Chu family had arrived.

The doorman of the Chu family was very well-mannered. When he saw the young man and the old man with limited mobility, he asked them politely if they had any invitations. When he learned that they did not have any, he also told them politely that the Grand Tutor was meeting some old friends today and would not see outsiders. If there was no invitation, please come back another day.

Li Yi smiled and said, "Please inform him that I am here to visit the Grand Tutor. If the Grand Tutor really does not want to see him, it will not be too late for us to leave."

The doorman saw that the young man in front of him was extraordinary, and the old man behind him, although he had limited mobility, had a scary look in his eyes. He was confused about their identities and said, "Wait a minute, I will inform him, but it is not certain whether the Grand Tutor will see you."

"Ning Chen..." He muttered this name and ran in quickly.

Two figures walked out of a brothel somewhere in Kyoto. Listening to the gossip of the people around him, the middle-aged man turned around and asked the man next to him: "Some people in Kyoto say that Lord Li is a pillar of the court, and some say he is a traitor. Wu Er, what do you think?"

"I don't know. I'm not very familiar with Lord Li." The man next to him shook his head, thought about it, and said, "But I still think that Lord Li was wronged."

The middle-aged man looked at the crowd and murmured, "Since he was wronged, why didn't he respond to these rumors in Kyoto and the struggles in the court?"

Wu Er sighed and said, "Who knows..."

"Don't worry." The middle-aged man patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Lord Li is a great man of his generation. These jumping clowns can't last long in front of him. We have to believe him..."
