Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Guo Ye paused for a moment, lowered his voice as much as possible, and said: "The key is that the current emperor is in the heyday of Spring and Autumn, and if His Royal Highness continues like this, hehe, sooner or later something big will happen. At that time, you say that Mr. How could it be better for me to get involved with His Highness the Crown Prince?"

After saying that, Guo Ye made a decapitation motion on his neck with his hand, which made Wu Xiuxiu shudder, and said in disbelief:

"No, can't you? His Royal Highness is only thirteen or fourteen years old this year. Does he really have such a far-reaching scheming in the city?"

Guo Ye raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a light smile, "It's impossible to be born in the emperor's family. Alas, these sons and daughters of dragons and phoenixes will come out as soon as they think about it, which one will be safe, which makes people worry-free." Master? They are happy, but it will hurt us down here, damn it!"

"Stop swearing!"

Wu Xiuxiu just disliked Guo Ye's appearance like a local rascal, which was too disproportionate to his current status.

He was used to Guo Ye's swear words, and he could only smile when he heard Wu Xiuxiu scolding him.

However, there was still a lingering depression between his brows, and he complained: "This is so worrying to me, and Fan Zhi's grandson is also aggressive. If you don't give him an explanation, the husband will not want to live in peace. But the key is how to answer Fan Zhi. What about Zhi? Neither the left nor the right.”

Guo Ye was entangled, and Wu Xiuxiu, as his wife, was also worried. As Guo Ye said, it's not right to agree, and it's not right not to agree!

After pondering for a while, Wu Xiuxiu suddenly chuckled, and instantly, she was as beautiful as peaches and plums, colorful.

After laughing, Wu Xiuxiu rebuked Guo Ye and said, "My husband is really a fan of the authorities, so what's the point of you agreeing now? At least for three years, you have to stay in Ding You, your ancestral home, to keep your filial piety. His Royal Highness can't force you into Chang'an, can you?" ?”

"Cut! How can I treat you as a good solution!"

Guo Ye pursed his lips, looked down on Wu Xiuxiu, and snorted, "The key is three years later, what should I do?"

Facing Guo Ye's disdain, Wu Xiuxiu didn't take it seriously, and continued: "You also said, Mr. Xianggong, that you need to face it after three years. Isn't there still three years to buffer? Within three years, things that can be changed There are so many things."

Guo Ye heard that there was something in the words, but he was still at a loss, and then asked: "How to change? He is the prince, and I am only a sixth-rank martial arts. Fighting him is not a mayfly shaking a big tree? How can an arm twist more than a thigh? "

Guo Ye repeatedly asked questions, but Wu Xiuxiu didn't explain too much, but raised two pale little fingers, made a gesture, and said softly:

"Self-pollution!"

Guo Ye still had a half-knowledge, and asked urgently, "Self-defilement? How should I say it?"

Wu Xiuxiu said: "Self-defile for perfection!"

Self-pollution for safety?

After hearing this, Guo Ye murmured these five words, chewing on the meaning over and over again.

Suddenly,

He had a feeling of breaking through the fog and seeing the moonlight...

Chapter 329

Self-pollution for perfection!

Wu Xiuxiu's white-toothed eyes flashed these five words, and Guo Ye suddenly had a kind of enlightenment.

My heart suddenly brightened, and the gloom between my eyebrows was swept away, and I shouted in my heart, yes, why didn't my buddy think of this trick.

When you become an official, in addition to paying attention to fame and knowledge, you also pay attention to your background. Of course, there is one more thing that is also crucial.

That is, fame!

In ancient times, the reputation of a person in the officialdom often represented his official voice, his reputation, and his integrity.

If a person with a bad reputation wants to go further and higher in his official career, it is unlikely.On the contrary, Shangguan will abandon you, and colleagues will be ashamed to join you, for fear of tarnishing themselves.

Naturally, the emperor will not talk to you. If the emperor values ​​the promotion of an official with a reputation that is notorious for ten miles, he is undoubtedly telling the world that he is also a fool.If he insisted on going his own way and dared to do this, then he would wait for the censors to spit, and leave a shameful record for himself in the history books.

Therefore, the treacherous ministers and ministers of the past dynasties often have a lot of face-saving skills, and they will always surpass Lord Mengchang and Lord Xinling in the outside world.

But doing those nasty things in secret is not satisfactory.

Maybe one is not dirty.

This is also the case in the officialdom of later generations. If you don’t see an episode of video, as long as a pair of pornographic photos are exposed, the secretary and mayor of Lao Shizi, no matter how glamorous their clothes are on TV, and how beautiful their mousse jelly is. If you should masturbate, you should masturbate, if you should step down, you should step down, if you should go to jail, you should go to jail.

It can be seen how important reputation is to an official, whether in ancient times, in the Tang Dynasty, or in the officialdom of later generations.

On the contrary, many celebrities and hermits who are unwilling to serve the king have used this rule to sum up the method of "self-defilement for perfection".

From the bottom of their hearts, these people would rather read books and taste tea in the deep mountains and old forests, and die alone, than go out to serve as officials, and they don't want to go out to assist the king, and they are afraid that the king will wield a butcher's knife and take their own lives.

Therefore, these people tried their best to discredit themselves, pour dirty water on themselves, and make themselves smelly, to see which king dares to force themselves.

Unless the king is shameless and wants to leave a name in the history books and leave a bad reputation for thousands of years, otherwise, he will cover his nose and shy away when he sees them.

This is the so-called self-defilement for perfection.

……

Baji~~

Guo Ye's heart suddenly brightened, he took Wu Xiuxiu into his arms, kissed her hard on the small face, and shouted: "You really have a good wife, Xiuxiu, I love you so much!"

"Guo Ye, you are sucking to death!"

Wu Xiuxiu forcibly pushed Guo Ye away, her cheeks flushed with shame, and she scolded, "Why are you so Meng Lang? Look where this is, it doesn't matter the occasion, there is no dignity, hum~~"

"Hey hey hey..."

Guo Ye wiped his lips and thought about it, smacked his lips twice, and said with a cheap smile: "Cheng Chengcheng, the lady is right, it is for husbands regardless of occasions, and at night, we will be young and old. ?”

With a mean smile on his face, it was like obscenity in Wu Xiuxiu's ears, which made people feel ashamed.

Immediately, he spat shamelessly: "Get out, rascal!"

After spitting, he turned around quickly, and ran towards the backyard with small steps.

Looking at Wu Xiuxiu's staggering, terrified back of Ruosi, Guo Ye said in his heart, hehe, what a good wife, and she will have to train her again tonight.

Afterwards, he tidied up his clothes and walked towards the living room...

At this time, he had made a decision in his mind, and he knew how to reply to Fan Zhi, and how to give an attitude to Prince Li Chengqian who was far away in Chang'an.

……

……

After half an hour of harmonious conversation with Fan Zhi, the prince's servant, Guo Ye then sent Chunxiang's servant girl to lead Fan Zhi to the wing to rest, and repeatedly asked him to serve Mr. Fan with good food and drink, and not to wrong the distinguished guests from Chang'an.

Through this talk, Guo Ye found out how to solve the problem that has been bothering him, but what about Fan Zhi?With Guo Ye's affirmative answer, he can smoothly send a mission to His Royal Highness Li Chengqian.
