They all say I'm a tyrant

The war in the southwest can only be regarded as a minor change for the entire Southern Wei Dynasty. According to the current strength of the Southern Wei Dynasty, Fan Guo, a small country in the Southwest, was not taken seriously at all. In his reply to the Southwest, Lin Ce also He only stated his wish and let the Southwest attack Fan Guo appropriately as a deterrent. As for the extent, it was up to the southwest defenders to decide according to Fan Guo's attitude.

Since the First World War in the Northwest that year, the Southern Wei Dynasty has never fought again, and the soldiers are still strong and strong after recuperating. Lin Ce is also happy to give the Southwest a chance to train and train. The Spring Festival will also kick off.

It is not unheard of to select scholars by division of disciplines before, but since the founding of the Southern Wei Dynasty, it has relied on the power of many aristocratic families, so that the children of the aristocratic clans have been officials for generations, participated in government affairs, and occupied many extremely important positions, including recommending Scholars who take part in the examination, so even if the children of the poor family are talented, it is difficult to stand out in the court dominated by the family, otherwise they will gradually disappear and disappear from the crowd, or they will take the initiative to make friends with the children of the family and become the disciples of the family, changing themselves. Come to a qualification to participate in the examination. Even if such a person really enters the officialdom, he will still become a partisan of the family, and the original intention of setting up the examination has long been violated.

It is precisely for this reason that Lin Ce attaches great importance to this spring, hoping to take this opportunity to really select talents based on talent and learning regardless of family background. He hopes that starting from this time, the practice of selecting scholars in the Southern Wei Dynasty will be completely changed, and it will also be broken. The court situation since the founding of the Southern Wei Dynasty to the present.

This is not an easy task. Because of Li Bu's case, many officials in the DPRK were liquidated, and the power of the aristocratic clan was also severely damaged. People from poor families are officials in the same court, and they will even be gradually expelled from the court one day in the future.

But since he wanted to clear the court, these reactions were within Lin Ce's expectations. He planned to make an example of others and punish those who reacted strongly to deter others, but in the end he was stopped by You Yan and gave these aristocratic families appropriate The benefits were appeased, and the matter of Chun Wei was gradually pushed forward.

Although You Yan is always concerned about the progress of this matter, and always talks about his views and opinions to Lin Ce unabashedly, but most of the time, he acts as if he has nothing to do with this matter.It may be due to nature. All his attention to these things is based on the premise of Lin Ce, and he is not very interested in it. Therefore, even if he participates in the morning court on time every day, he spends more time in the palace than before There are many, but still do not change their laziness and leisure in the past.

Spring returns to the earth, everything revives, and the imperial city gradually emerges from the silence of winter, especially the imperial garden. All the ruins of autumn and winter have been cleaned up, and new flowers and plants have been planted.

Because You Yan lived in the palace for a long time, Lin Ce specially asked someone to renovate the imperial garden. According to You Yan's request, he almost completely copied the garden of You Mansion. He also dug the lotus pond again and planted new lotus flowers. , and dozens of koi swimming around in the pool, letting You Yan toss about.

You Yan, who had been ostracized by his own garden for many years, finally found his existence in the imperial garden. When he had nothing to do, he took the gray rabbit that was fattened by Lin Ce to the imperial garden, watering the flowers, fishing, but looking for something again. I had a lot of fun, and ignited a bit of vitality in this imperial garden that was originally neglected.

You Yan's favorite place is still under the willow tree next to the lotus pond. Before in his own mansion, he always liked to sit in this place, take off his shoes and socks, and put his feet in the pond to enjoy the coolness. But now in the palace, Lin Ce's eyes and ears are all over the place. It was spring, and the water in the pool was still cool. If he still dared to do this, Lin Ce, who was reviewing the memorials in Changle Palace, would probably find him in person the next moment, and bring the imperial doctor to diagnose his pulse.

Lin Ce was always overly cautious when dealing with problems related to You Yan's body, and occasionally made You Yan feel restrained, but all of that disappeared when he met the man's concerned eyes.You Yan is good at observing people's hearts, and he is most aware that even a high-ranking emperor is not perfect, and he is willing to condone Lin Ce's small problem.

Although he couldn't be reckless, You Yan still sat down against the thick willow tree, stretched his legs, and stretched his waist long.The gray rabbit poked its head out from his arms, looked around, seemed to sense that the surroundings were safe, shook its ears, and wanted to crawl out from You Yan's lapel.

You Yan has raised this rabbit for a long time. Since the beginning of spring, he has brought it to the Imperial Garden all day long. Knowing that it has gradually become familiar with this place, he simply put it on the ground and let it play. He picked up the fishing rod on one side and started Fishing today.

He has been preparing this fishing rod for a long time, and the bait specially prepared by the servant is hung on the hook, but there is still no koi biting the hook.But You Yan didn't care, he propped his chin and looked at the koi swimming in the pool without feeling bored.

After an unknown amount of time, footsteps suddenly came from not far away, and You Yan tilted his ears, feeling a little curious.After all, there have been no other visitors since the imperial garden was closed. Lin Ce deliberately made this place a place for You Yan to toss about. Naturally, other people did not dare to disturb him, but unexpectedly, someone came today, and he heard more than one voice bit.

You Yan didn't care much, he leaned back and rested his head on the palm of his hand, and began to think about how he should fish successfully, when suddenly he heard a low voice: "Hey, princess, there is a rabbit here, the servants are going to catch it Here we come to play for you."

You Yan didn't want to meet these people at first, but when he heard that the rabbit was related to him, he still stood up, walked around the tree trunk, and bowed to Princess Lechang who was surrounded by several court ladies: "My minister, see Your Highness .”

Neither Princess Lechang nor her court lady thought that there were other people in the imperial garden, especially her court lady was shocked when she saw that this man was still a man, and when she was about to speak, her arm was held down, Lin Xiu turned to You Yan Nodded: "I don't know that General You is here and disturbed your interest, I hope you will forgive me."

You Yan laughed, and walked up to Lin Xiu: "This is the imperial garden, so why not disturb it, but..." You Yan pointed at the gray rabbit that had fallen into the hands of the maid, "This is the Raised by humble ministers."

Lin Xiu was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and said to her court lady, "Isn't it returned to the original owner?"

The palace lady already knew the identity of this person, knew that she should not be neglected, and hastily handed the rabbit in her hand to You Yan, the rabbit was in the hands of several people, and was quite frightened, now it returned to You Yan's hands, finally Feeling relieved, he slipped into You Yan's arms with ease, only showing a pair of long ears, shaking a few times from time to time.

Everyone's attention couldn't help but fall on the rabbit, You Yan rubbed the rabbit's ears dumbfounded, and said to Lin Xiu with a smile: "It's very timid, the princess laughed at it."

Lin Xiu rolled her eyes: "It's rare to see such a lively little thing in the palace, it's interesting."

You Yan looked at her eyes with a smile similar to Lin Ce's, thought for a while, and took out the gray rabbit hidden in his arms: "Anyway, I have nothing to do today, so I'm here to bask Basking in the sun, the princess mainly likes it, so I will take it to play first, and I will take it away when I go back later."

Lin Xiu really felt that the gray rabbit was a novelty, and she was also in a good mood today, so she simply sat down with You Yan in the gazebo by the pool, and her court lady even served tea for them.

Lin Xiu held the gray rabbit in her arms, touched its ears once in a while, walked around the destination, and looked around the entire imperial garden. After a long time, she sighed: "This garden has changed now, it is no longer the same as that day. Like dead."

You Yan took a sip of tea: "There is indeed a bit less vitality in this imperial city, and it really looks much more pleasing to the eye now."

Lin Xiu's eyes turned to You Yan's face, and sighed softly: "These flowers and plants are not the only ones lacking vitality in the imperial city, and the people here are not like that? Everyone envies our fine clothes and luxurious food, but they don't know that apart from these, the world We don’t have all the things. Father’s kindness and son’s filial piety, brothers and sisters’ respect, husband and wife’s love, all become ridiculous things in this imperial city.” She closed her eyes slightly as she said, “This imperial city used to be How lively it is, but now only me and the emperor are left. If the emperor hadn't succeeded to the throne, I might not even be able to sit here."

Lin Xiu stretched out her hand to pick up the teacup, and took a sip, "That's why I have always envied you, General You."

You Yan looked up at her: "Me? Why does the princess envy me?"

"You can do whatever you want." Lin Xiudao, "You never care about the things that the world cares about or worry about. You only do what you want to do, and you won't be bound by common affairs."

"The only one who can restrain myself is myself." You Yan said, "Although the princess was born in this imperial city, she doesn't care about her family background, she only cares about her sincerity. How can such a person allow herself to be restrained." He said, I reached out and poured Lin Xiu a cup of tea, "The Princess must have received the news about the Southwest incident. In the battle of Lingling City, Wu Sheng relied on his unstoppable courage to kill several generals. Guo Zhun, the general manager of Yizhou, personally wrote a letter to the sage, asking for credit for Wu Sheng, and when the Southwest War is over, the princess's wish will probably be granted."

When it comes to Wu Sheng, Yu Linxiu is naturally the youngest daughter's mind. The corners of her mouth are raised, and her cheeks are slightly flushed: "The war in the Southwest is now intense, and we haven't communicated for a long time. I'm not in a hurry for him to set up some kind of masterpiece right away." Merit, I only hope that the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and he can return safe and sound, then he will be satisfied."

You Yan's eyes flickered, he didn't know what to think of, and he suddenly laughed: "Princess, don't worry, I know that there is a loved one in the capital who is thinking about it, even if it is difficult, he will not be willing to let you down and sad."
