Just like the comments about King Chu Mu, these words could not be spoken, so Li Xian had to act as a listener. Even if he spoke occasionally, he would say it to suit the moods of Xiao Dezhao and Yang Yi.
Talk about people when you see them, talk about ghosts when you see ghosts. Since the evolution of biology has given humans the ability to use sounds to express their complex thoughts, we must make good use of it. Li Xian never underestimates the power of words. "Thank you", "Thank you for your hard work", and "Have you eaten, sir" may seem very simple, but in fact, the effect they produce is unparalleled.
The difference between the so-called social anxiety disorder and social phobia patients may be the amount of language and the composition of language. Since you are not in the position of being able to say whatever you want, using words to please others is a good way for a person to gain the goodwill of others.
This is the case for Xiao Dezhao and Yang Yi. Every time they introduce the past of Prince Li Hong, Li Xian will make appropriate comments, either with regret or wonder, and occasionally he will criticize a little from the perspective of a brother.
In this way, the conversation lasted for a long time, making the two of them feel very happy. If Li Yun hadn't come to deliver tea, I'm afraid they would have wanted to say more.
Although he was in the East Palace, Li Yong stubbornly insisted on going back to the palace to make tea. Knowing his thoughts, Li Xian had no intention of stopping him. After all, this was one of his jobs.
People who are used to drinking tea soup will be surprised when they try tea for the first time. And Li Xian's saying of "bitter first, sweet later" can be used against everyone.
After listening to Li Xian's explanation, Xiao Dezhao actually stood up and said with cupped hands: "His Highness's taste is indeed not something that a humble minister can understand. I heard that His Highness is practicing martial arts diligently now. Although he is exhausted, he still does not change his original intention. Come to think of it, Your mood may also coincide with this tea ceremony. I just don’t know why His Highness once concentrated on studying, but now he is interested in martial arts? "
Knowing that Xiao Dezhao wanted to change the subject, Li Xian followed his intention and replied: "Why did Zuo Shuzi use this matter to test me? In fact, I have never thought that among the ministers of civil and military affairs, which side is the most important? , or in other words, civil and military affairs are like left and right hands for the court. Maybe sometimes, one party will become left-handed for some reasons. But just because we are right-handed, we have to give up the left hand? This is not correct. "
Xiao Dezhao and Yang Yi's eyes widened when they heard these words.
No, we haven't laid the groundwork or guided you yet. Why did His Highness tell them what they wanted to test?
Yang Yi was still surprised, but Xiao Dezhao reacted first and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, I have no other intention in asking this question. You have misunderstood."
Misunderstood? Although Li Xian said he was embarrassed, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
The dispute between civil and military officials has been going on for more than a year or two. Since the emergence of different official systems for civil and military officials, these two groups have never stopped. Although they are ministers of the same court, they both look down on each other. Civil servants despise the knowledge of military commanders, and military commanders despise the bodies of civil servants.
After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, due to the constant war, the status of military generals has always been superior to that of civil servants. With the beginning of the prosperous age of Taizong, the war at the border gradually decreased, and civil servants once again suppressed the generals.
When it came to Li Zhi, because he wanted to suppress the Guanlong nobles and traditional clans, and to open up new territories and expand the territory, the war rekindled, so the poor generals were more favored. Vaguely, it seems that another group has taken shape in the aristocratic circle, that is, the emerging generals.
The emergence of this new aristocratic group inevitably made civil servants wary. After all, as the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty continued, "no knighthood is allowed except for military merit", although it did not appear in the article, it became a potential rule. If this development continues, civil servants will inevitably be suppressed by military generals.
As for Li Xian, although he said on the surface that they cannot abandon the two, the military is still the "right hand" in his mind.
To give a very simple example, the Song Dynasty continued to emphasize culture over military affairs. The result was that the combat effectiveness of the army was low. Except for two famous generals, Yue Fei and Di Qing, ordinary people could not even think of a third one.
Although warlord rule was one of the reasons for the fall of the Tang Dynasty, Li Xian still felt that the military was more important. The foundation of a country is not a "state of etiquette" at all, but a strong fighting power. Only after establishing a foothold can we consider other issues, such as people's livelihood.
Xiao Dezhao and Yang Yi's plan was directly answered by Li Xian, which made them a little embarrassed and left on the pretext that they had something to arrange.
Being in the mourning hall, there was naturally no way to do other things to waste time, so Li Xian had no choice but to sit on the Jindun and lose his mind.
After this trance, it was evening.
The cool breeze in the evening blew unexpectedly, but the most frustrating thing was the gloomy sky.
It's cloudy....
Thinking of the sun halo he saw today and the folk proverb "the sun halo rains at midnight, the moon halo winds at noon", Li Xian felt that there was a high possibility that it would rain tonight. Sometimes, these folk proverbs are more accurate than weather forecasts.
After taking a look at the setting of the mourning hall, I couldn't help but feel lucky that there was a brazier. Although there was some smoke and smoke, I thought I could carry it with my thick clothes.
Li Yong personally went to the imperial dining room and brought over a steamer of steamed buns. Except for the bun supplied to Li Hong, which was complete, the other buns had two neat gaps.
Pretending not to see it, Li Xian picked up a jar of wine sent by the Zou family, poured it out and tasted a little. Zou Hao was quite capable. In such a short time, he could make wine of about 30 to 40 degrees. I think it was 50 or 60 degrees. It's only a matter of time before it reaches Ten Degrees.
Why do the ancients always claim that you can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk? It’s because the alcohol content of ancient drinks was not high enough, and the ingredients were boasted. If he drinks from a small cup and still drinks beer, Li Xian feels that he can claim to not be drunk after a thousand cups.
As for wine, drinking less can relax your blood vessels, but drinking too much can harm your body. I asked for a jar of wine today mainly to check the progress of Zoujia Winery, not because he wanted to drink it.
Another bowl was poured out, and this time Li Xian poured the wine in front of the coffin, thinking it was for Li Hong to drink.
No matter what, as a time traveler, I had taken away his younger brother's body, and even planned to take away the emperor's position that he had been holding on to for many years but had not yet obtained. Why should I offer him a bowl as an apology?
Seeing the prince pouring a bowl of wine to the ground, Li Yong couldn't help but swallowed.
Just by smelling it, you could tell that this wine was of the best quality. Although he had tasted all kinds of good wines when he was testing the poison for the emperor, this was the first time he encountered such an alluring taste.
Such good wine was poured on the ground....
Well, it’s a memorial, so it’s not a pity.
