The future prime minister, and the prime minister of the three dynasties of Empress Wu, Ruizong, and Xuanzong. If he said that this guy was not a talented person, even if he killed Li Xian, he wouldn't believe it.
Such a talent has just entered the officialdom. If he does not grasp it firmly, wouldn't he let the golden mountain slip away from his eyes?
After swallowing and not reading the content of Xie Lu's song, Li Xian turned his head and said to the Queen: "Auntie, this song is very good, at least I can't write it with my son's writing style. Who is this Yao Yuanchong? What's the origin?"
Seeing that Li Xian thought he was inferior, the Queen couldn't help but smile and said: "He is the son of Yao Yi, the governor of Sizhou. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu came to Shaanzhou with troops. He assessed the situation and thought that the power of Emperor Gaozu was irresistible, so he went there in person. He surrendered in front of the army, thus allowing the people of Shaanzhou to avoid a military disaster. Therefore, his official career has been good since then.
As for Yao Yuanchong, he was considered a playboy in his early years. He was uneducated and liked hunting very much. But I don't know what happened. After he was twenty years old, he started studying hard and achieved success in his studies. He became famous for a while. After all, his father can be considered as having contributed to the founding of the country, so everyone agreed to let him serve as the bridegroom and become an official. "
Li Xian nodded, no wonder. After all, the official position of bailang is one of the ways to become an official. If you want to use this as a stepping stone, you can only learn with talent and no one to help you, and you will not get the chance.
However, even if you enter the official position as a retainer, you will not be able to find a good official, and you will still have to be promoted bit by bit in the future. Why not, just take this opportunity to recruit him to the palace, hehe.
Thinking of this, Li Xian cupped his hands and said: "Auntie, from this poem, we can see that Yao Yuanchong has extraordinary literary talent, especially since this guy likes hunting and his archery skills should be good. You also know that although Aye has given I asked Xue Ne to teach archery, but I really like this talented person who is capable of both literary and military skills. Why don’t you let him come to Prince Yong’s Mansion to serve as a literary scholar? What do you think?”
The queen didn't expect Li Xian to make such a request, talent? Yao Yuanchong is just about to become an official, but he hasn't shown any skills yet? But... if you think about it, Xian'er likes learning very much, and now he is learning bow and arrow. It's not surprising that he has a crush on people who are similar to him.
In the final analysis, it is more about curiosity than recruiting talents.
Smiling, the Queen said helplessly: "If you want someone, how can you ask A Niang for it? You should talk to A Ye, but A Niang can pass a message for you, and I guess A Ye won't be stingy either. , is just a young man with good literary talent, how many people in our Tang Dynasty have good literary talent?"
Hearing what the queen said, although Li Xian burst into laughter in his heart, he still looked calm on the surface.
Don't be too happy, after all, you can't be happy about picking up leaks like this after you get home and get into bed. Although he is about to become a prince, it is not a good thing to recruit talents whether he is a prince or a prince. Not to mention, the queen in front of me, even the one above me, would probably be wary.
Yao Yuanchong is very good. No one knows his future achievements. Now, the only one who likes him is himself.
With his goal accomplished, Li Xian sat down and started reading Yao Yuanchong's Song of Xie Lu.
In fact, Xie Luge is similar in format, and the general idea is to sing words of regret for the deceased. And Yao Yuanchong's part can be said to heighten the sadness to the extreme.
Think about it, after all, it is the prince who dies now, not the emperor. It would be sad for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person. When a black-haired person sends a white-haired person to a white-haired person, there may be more ecstasy.
It was not far from Changlefang to the East Palace. At the gate of the East Palace, Li Xian got off the carriage.
Waiting to greet him at the gate of the East Palace was Xiao Dezhao, the prince's concubine.
Li Xian was unfamiliar with this person.
To be precise, this person did not leave any obvious footprints in history.
Among the officials who belong to the East Palace with him, Dai Zhide has moved to Shangshu Pushe, and Zhang Wenguan has become a servant, and can be called the top boss in the court. But Xiao Dezhao was still trapped in the East Palace. Just as it is described in history that "most court affairs are due to virtue", the virtue among them may include him.
Seeing the skinny poor man in front of him, Li Xian couldn't help but secretly sigh for him.
"Xiao Dezhao, the concubine of the left concubine, the prince of Weichen, pays homage to His Highness King Yong."
Li Xian nodded and returned the greeting slightly: "I heard that the person in charge of the affairs of the East Palace is Zuo Shuzi. Today, I am here to preside over the emperor's brother's crying night. What to do is left to Zuo Shuzi's arrangement."
Xiao Dezhao stood up, frowned and said: "Since His Highness is willing to obey the arrangements of the minister, please change your clothes. You are so bulky and unbecoming of a prince!"
"What?"
Li Xian was stunned. What was so inappropriate?
Li Xian was still confused, but Li Yun spoke up: "Zuo Shuzi, do you have to worry about what His Highness King Yong wears? Is the official position of Prince Zuo Shuzi very big?"
After saying that, Li Yun pulled Xiao Dezhao aside rudely and invited King Yong to enter the East Palace.
Xiao Dezhao obviously wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Yang Yi, the crown prince's right concubine, who came in a hurry.
"Shut up. Prince Yong is willing to come and host the ceremony. He is crying, but the Queen of Heaven has spoken. Otherwise, if he doesn't want to come, no one can say anything. This is a great friendship for His Highness the Crown Prince. It's not like you didn't keep your guard. Stay the night, it’s so cold at night. If you freeze King Yong out, you’ll be doomed. Now who doesn’t know that King Yong will soon become the new crown prince?”
Although he followed Yang Yi's persuasion, Xiao Dezhao still snorted before returning to the East Palace.
Seeing Xiao Dezhao like this, Yang Yi smiled helplessly and had to follow quickly.
No one likes an old-fashioned person, and no one likes someone who accuses himself of mistakes when nothing happens.
They say that good advice that offends the ears is helpful for one's actions, but even if it is off-putting advice, it can make people irritated if heard too much.
Xiao Dezhao is a person who likes to tell unfavorable advice, so the problem arises. It is precisely because of this that he has not been able to rise to great heights like Dai Zhide and others.
After analyzing Xiao Dezhao's problem, Li Xian decided not to pay attention to this guy's words.
Just as Li Yun said, Prince Zuo Shuzi, is the official a big man?
After all, this is an external steward of the East Palace, and he is also responsible for correcting the prince's mistakes. Although there are also auxiliary tasks, this power is only within the small court of the East Palace. Even when the prince officially participates in politics and is in semi-ruling power, the real decision-maker is the official prime minister at the official court. Regardless of whether he is a bastard or a concubine, he has to step aside.
What's more, even though he cried when he agreed to come over to host, Li Xian never intended to lose his health for the sake of face.
