I asked this question because Li Linfu really developed a love for talent.

It is true that Li Linfu is jealous of talented people and jealous of talents, but he also makes good use of officials. Those who are literary can't get any benefits from him, especially those of Jinshi, who have always been disdainful. But he is still generous to promote capable officials - because these capable officials cannot threaten his position as prime minister.

Ye Chang is even more impossible.

Ye Chang is only nineteen years old and has not yet arrived. Even if Li Linfu spared no effort to help him, he would have to climb the officialdom for more than ten or twenty years before he could come to the central government to see the position of prime minister. More than ten or twenty years later, Li Linfu was afraid of resigning even if he did not die of old age. Therefore, Li Linfu did not think that Ye Chang could pose a threat to him.

On the contrary, Ye Chang's "financial management" skills made Li Linfu develop the heart for me to use.

Such skills are too strong for Li Longji's financial management. Even though Ye Chang is just talking about it on paper, with his ability to make honeycomb coal and cement, as long as he makes something, he will be able to obtain hundreds of thousands of tons of wealth.

"At that time, people called someone a sweet-mouthed sword, and they also said they were jealous of the virtuous and capable... Ye Shiyi, what do you think?" Li Linfu asked again.

Ye Chang felt a little confused.

He likes to take the initiative when talking to people, and has almost always been in trouble before. But in front of Li Linfu, he felt that his methods were of no use. Whenever he wanted to change the topic and get the initiative, Li Linfu looked at him with a strange look that looked gentle but was sharp.

It seemed as if Li Linfu knew exactly what he was thinking.

He had to answer Li Linfu's question because Li Linfu asked twice in a row, which obviously could not be avoided.

Of course it is simple to flatter, but how to shoot correctly, especially without leaving any troubles is difficult.

"According to what I saw, among the ministers since the priest ascended the throne, only Yao Chong can be better than Li Gong, and all the others of my sons are worse than those of me."

After thinking for a while, Ye Chang decided not to respond to this question positively.

"Ha, Ye Shiyi and I have a high opinion of me."

"Yao Chong is better than Gao Gong Li because he has made a final conclusion. Gao Gong Li is still unknown in the future. If Gao Gong Li retires at this time, Gao Gong will definitely be comparable to Yao Chong. If Gao Gong Li can achieve something in the future, it will be better than Yao Chong."

"What you mean is that if I do something wrong, I'm afraid it's not as good as Mr. Yao Liang." Li Linfu laughed.

Ye Chang compared Yao Chong to him, and indeed touched the itch in his heart. He had many similarities with Yao Chong: both of them were good at official affairs, both were trusted by Li Longji, and spared no effort to expel political enemies. Therefore, after laughing, he patted Ye Chang on the shoulder: "You can see it like Ye Shiyi, and there are no one in the ten who are in the court. Ye Shiyi, what you said is true?"

"True" Ye Chang is not a lie. Li Longji has become more and more absurd and extravagant in recent years. It is not that Li Linfu has outstanding abilities and his national strength has long been difficult to support him. Of course, Li Linfu only thought that Ye Chang was praising him, but he did not know that after Ye Chang came to this world, he discovered some anecdotes of the legendary wise minister Yao Chong, and his evaluation of this person was greatly reduced.

Li Linfu nodded, and the two entered a room on the east side of the garden. The decoration of the house was still extremely luxurious. Even Ye Chang, who encouraged the rich to consume to drive the economy, couldn't stand it.

After Ye Chang sat down, Li Linfu sighed: "Ye Shiyi knows me, because in this position under me, many people flatter me like me, but they are not as good as Ye Shiyi's words. The appearance of the Tang Dynasty is not easy... There are more than 40 million people in the Tang Dynasty household books, and there are more than 30 million people not on the household books. A small trouble, if it is over 70 million, it is a huge trouble; and no matter how great the credit is, it is insignificant..."

Ye Chang looked at Li Linfu in amazement, and even Li Linfu felt something was wrong. However, Li Linfu judged that he should have been moved by his open heart and felt that there was something to add to the fire, so he said again: "Over the years, I have been unable to sleep almost every night. Whenever there are disasters, I often burst into tears... The hardships of people's livelihood are all in my heart."

Ye Chang finally looked extremely moved: "Li Xianggong is loyal to the king and the country, and he will learn from the sun."

"It's good if you know it, it's good if you know it..."

Li Linfu repeated it again, and when he saw Ye Chang not accepting this, he couldn't help but curse "Little Fox". When he said this, if Ye Chang was younger and more bloody, he would have to follow the words and say that he would serve him, but Ye Chang was not fooled.

Since that's the case, let's change it.

"Huo Xianqi has made contributions to the country, so how can he abandon it lightly?" Li Linfu said: "Han Chaozong wrote a letter to retire himself."

Ye Chang shook slightly, feeling the pressure was so strong, and he cursed in his heart: Ji Wen, you are such a dog

It turned out that Ji Wen sold him, so Li Linfu came to him... But what's the point of Ji Wen selling him? His biggest opponent is Huo Xianqi

Ye Chang couldn't understand, but said firmly: "Huo Xianqi set a very bad precedent. He can write to Mr. Han today and sue Li tomorrow."

Li Linfu smiled and looked a little contemptuous.

How can this trick work? Li Linfu has absolute confidence and can control Huo Xianqi.

"In addition, Huangfu Weiming and Wei Jian... They are pillars of the court and are both confidant ministers of Your Majesty. If you join the army, you should not be criticized by others. If they know about it, you will be the first to be the law of the country."

Li Linfu's words made Ye Chang stunned at that time.

He is a smart man, so he naturally knows that there are two meanings. One is that he holds the handle between Huangfu Weiming and Wei Jian, which is no different from Huo Xianqi's complaint to Han Chaozong, and it is a villain's act; the other is that Ye Chang wants Ye Chang to hand over this handle, otherwise Li Linfu will leak this matter to Huangfu Weiming and Wei Jian, and let them deal with Ye Chang.

The reason why Ye Chang is stupid is not because of fear, but Li Linfu's method.

Originally, Ye Chang was holding something Li Linfu had dreamed of to bargaining, but in the end he turned into a hot potato in his hand, and needed Li Linfu to help him.

"Mr. Li... I really made a fuss to make clouds and a fuss to make rain." Ye Chang was stunned for a while, then smiled.

The smile was a little bitter. I and Li Linfu, for the time being - no, for the foreseeable time, were not opponents of the same level. So Li Linfu's slight and clever words forced him into the corner.

Huo Xianqi must be punished. This is what Ye Chang promised Han Chaozong. At this time, Ye Chang suddenly realized that Han Chaozong was doing what he looked like back then.

Could it be that he was used by Han Chaozong again?

Looking at Li Linfu and thinking about Han Chaozong, Ye Chang felt that he was all over his head, so he was more straightforward He Zhizhang.

"However, this matter is not the same as me... Li Xiang felt that even if I had any handle in my hand, I could do anything to Huangfu Weiming and Wei Jian? If I really had it, I was afraid that Dr. Huangfu would not let me return from Longyou to Chang'an alive."

Ye Chang's words made Li Linfu look stunned for the first time.

Unexpectedly, under such circumstances, Ye Chang was not allowed to stop and even easily resolved his threat.

Li Linfu could naturally leak the news to Huangfu Weiming, but as Ye Chang said, Huangfu Weiming would not believe it. If Ye Chang really caught Huangfu Weiming with any trick, Huangfu Weiming would have killed him in the Battle of Hequ, and would not let him come back alive.

This is the asymmetry of information. Li Linfu did not have anyone to be with Huangfu Weiming before, so he didn't know that Huangfu Weiming actually wanted to kill Ye Chang several times, but they were all resolved by Ye Chang one by one.

"Speaking of this, Wansheng did have a disagreement with Doctor Huangfu, and this was thanks to Mr. Li. Wansheng went to serve in front of the Longyou Army. Mr. Li had a private letter to Mr. Huangfu to ask him to take care of him. After seeing him, he was furious and was embarrassed by Mr. Wansheng." Ye Chang had always had a question in his heart. He had already figured out that the "Mr. Li" that Huangfu Weiming mentioned at the time was Li Linfu, and why did Li Linfu send someone to send such a letter to Huangfu Weiming?

He has never had any relationship with Li Linfu, but logically speaking, he shouldn't have such a letter.

Li Linfu raised his eyes when he heard this and looked at Ye Chang with a strange expression.

After a while, he slowly said, "Ye Shiyi, Huangfu Weiming blames you, but it was not my letter to him, but it was actually your own verbal disaster.

"Oh, please give me advice from Xianggong Li."

"You made a big resignation in Luoyang to discuss border plans privately. When it was passed to Chang'an, Li Taibai added fuel to the fire. He said, 'Everyone who negotiated peace would be a traitor,' but do you know that in the 18th year of Kaiyuan, Quanrong was repeatedly defeated and sought peace in Chang'an. Your Majesty wanted to take advantage of the victory, so he refused to allow it. Huangfu Weiming, who was an official in the court, told Your Majesty that the Quanrong attacked the border, was his personal actions, not his wishes to praise the public. Our border generals also wanted to start a war to seek merits, and agreed to his request for peace and sent an envoy to visit Princess Jincheng. I remember that he said that this was to stop the border, which was the way to rest on behalf of others. Your Majesty believed it and sent him as an envoy to serve as an envoy to Quanrong... Your statement about border plans was to turn over the old accounts and beat Huangfu Weiming's face at the time."

Ye Chang found that he had just taken back a little bit of initiative and lost it in a blink of an eye. He really didn't know that Huangfu Weiming, who was eager to make contributions in Longyou, was actually a peace faction more than ten years ago, and had experience of serving as a mission to Quanrong.

In this way, everything makes sense. As a civil servant, Huangfu Weiming would not inquire about the news in the capital? Li Bai spread Ye Chang's border theories in the Hanlin Academy. Although he did not explicitly refer to him, Huangfu Weiming would not feel the heat on his face.

Ye Chang just came to his subordinates again... This was probably Li Longji deliberately.

Ye Chang only felt that the top leaders of the Tang Dynasty were all black-bellied guys, from Li Longji to Huangfu Weiming, and of course, Li Linfu in front of him, were all like this. However, his self-proclaimed scheming was no different from the pure and kind little sheep.

"Therefore, the hatred between Huangfu Weiming and you is the right and wrong you have caused by yourself. Moreover, don't think it will be fine if you come back. I have asked about your position as a military officer, but it has not been resolved. After the Chinese New Year, you must continue to serve in front of the army." Li Linfu said meaningfully again: "There was Bian Lingcheng who could restrain Huangfu Weiming before. Now Bian Lingcheng is dead, and no one in the internal prison is willing to be the ambassador of the military. Who can protect you?"

Ye Chang swallowed his saliva, the sequelae of Bian Lingcheng's death...

However, he was not worried about this, because after meeting Li Longji, Ye Chang basically judged that even if Huangfu Weiming returned to the border, the possibility of returning to Longyou was extremely small. Li Linfu was not aware of this, so Ye Chang shook his head and said, "Huangfu Weiming is another matter. Mr. Li, now he is talking about Huo Xianqi."

"I have already said it."

"If Mr. Li is not sure of protecting Huo Xianqi, it is impossible. As long as Han Chaozong does not resign and is not Jingzhao Yin, he can find a noble position in the court - no real power is needed, such as the prince's guest."

Ye Chang took the opportunity to say that he knew that Li Linfu would never agree to this condition, and now Han Chaozong has made Li Longji angry. Even if Li Linfu agrees, he will not be able to protect Han Chaozong.

But bargaining is like this, with high demands being made in order to compromise later.

Li Linfu laughed out loud. He was playing tricks in front of him, and he couldn't help but show off his aggression. He knocked on the table twice, then shook his head: "Forget it, Ye Shiyi, I won't make things difficult for you, don't make things difficult for me... Today's talk is over, I'll send you out."

"In this way, I said goodbye."

Ye Chang thought that Li Linfu was playing the trick of getting to get, so he got up and went out. When he arrived at the door, he did not hear Li Linfu call. He could no longer retreat at this time, so he gritted his teeth and really crossed the threshold.

When he left the door, the cold wind blew outside, Ye Chang felt a little awake.

He originally wanted to follow the way in, but after only a few steps, a servant dressed up and stopped him: "Langjun Ye, my husband has given me instructions, please go here."

Ye Chang frowned. Could it be that he was letting him enter the forbidden area and accidentally entered the White Tiger Hall? However, Li Linfu was in power and had no need to use such means to deal with him. Therefore, he was just a little suspicious, but he still followed the servant out.

Li Linfu's mansion was extremely large. After wandering around the continuous house for a while, Ye Chang was taken to a main hall. However, the servant did not continue to move forward, but bowed respectfully: "Ye Langjun, my husband told me to ask Ye Langjun to wait here, or he had something to ask Ye Langjun."

When Ye Chang left Li Linfu's house, he did not see the servant, so Li Linfu's order should have been before the two met. Ye Chang was puzzled, but he stopped in the room as he said, and waited for a while, and was bored. He began to look at the decorations around him.

The furnishings around him are still luxurious, but Ye Chang was used to seeing the dazzling array of goods in another world, so he would not take these things seriously. He just glanced over and saw a row of books, which aroused his interest. He leaned forward and took a look, but still did not reach out to read them.

It is not easy for scholars to read books at this time, but for Ye Chang, whether it is Confucian classics or notes and legends on this bookshelves, it is not worth his hand after reading them in later generations.
