Chapter 98 Gao Lishi who is not visible but not exposed (two in one)(1/2)
Wang Maozhong's words are not ordinary arrogance, but they are just pointing out.
Li Longji uses nepotism.
In addition to Gao Lishi, Pei Min, Wang Ju, Wang Maozhong, Jiang Jiao, Li Lingwen, Wang Shouyi and Li Shoude, the person closest to him was naturally the eunuch eunuch.
For some reason, the eunuchs and eunuchs had great power during the Li Longji period.
In addition to Gao Lishi, there are also Yang Sixu, Li Jingren, Lin Zhaoyin, Yin Fengxiang and others.
Yang Sixu held the feud and attacked Li Jingren and Lin Zhaoyin were ordered to announce the communication, and Yin Fengxiang was in charge of the academy. The other Sun Liu, Yang Ba, Niu Xiantong, Liu Fengting, Wang Cheng'en, Zhang Daobin, Li Dayi and others, such as worshiping the temple, supervising the army, entering the foreign countries, teaching the yard, and being the master of merit, all of them were appointed as important positions.
For these eunuchs and eunuchs, they were slightly praised as the third-rank general.
However, Li Longji is still in control of this degree, and the status of the eunuch is limited to the third rank.
Even Gao Lishi is a third-grade right-level guard general.
Wang Maozhong's tone can tell the contempt for Gao Lishi, which is simply to say that my son is a real man. You, Gao Lishi, are a man who is not a man, have a higher status than my son.
It turned out that all the civil and military officials who attended the banquet were shocked by Wang Maozhong's words.
Wang Maozhong despised eunuchs and eunuchs, and it is well known to everyone.
But they really didn't expect that Wang Maozhong would humiliate Li Longji's most beloved Gao Lishi in full view of everyone.
They looked at each other and suddenly regretted why they came to attend this banquet.
Gao Lishi seemed not to hear the implicit sound, and still smiled happily: "The man was under the age of a year, so he was given a fifth-rank rank and was born in the sky. Why do you have to say too much about his achievements? He is more than someone who can't compare with him. Compared with someone, he felt wronged. This Wenwu Quxing descended to the earth, and it may not be necessary to become the second Duke of Pei."
Gao Lishi's answer made the civil and military officials who attended the banquet couldn't help but secretly praise them in their hearts.
Eunuchs have not been popular with the public throughout the ages, but Gao Lishi is gentle and humble, and he is good at observing things and holds great power, but he is not arrogant at all. Even the harsh scholars and officials have no disgust.
Wang Maozhong's arrogance now seems to be more conscious of Gao Lishi's generality.
This is also a very important praise for being the second Duke of Pei.
Pei Min is 289 years old this year, and has achieved enlightenment in literature and martial arts. He is an indispensable jade pillar in the Tang Dynasty. He was a generation of literary masters and was highly prestigious among the magistrates of the court.
People like him are very few even if they look at history.
Just like Huo Qubing and Zhuge Liang in history, it is very legendary.
Words of praise.
But when Wang Maozhong heard it, he felt harsh.
Wang Maozhong had a deep resentment towards Pei Min, and he left his long-standing resentment when he robbed him.
Later, Pei Min openly accused Li Longji of corrupting military discipline in front of him and removing his most capable assistant Gao Guangji, which made his strength in the army frustrated and his hatred deeper.
Pei Min'er is a great compliment to others, but in Wang Maozhong's opinion, it is a humiliation.
Gao Lishi's concession made Wang Maozhong even more unscrupulous and said arrogantly: "My son will allow you, the eunuch, to be noisy in the future. I will thank Your Majesty for my return."
People are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden.
This is true at all. Wang Maozhong hates Pei Min, but he dares not speak ill of Pei Min openly.
Gao Lishi gave in everywhere, but all he got was gaining was gaining.
Gao Lishi came from afar, and Wang Maozhong was sarcastic and had no good words. Not to mention drinking, he had no choice but to sit down, so he drove people straight away.
Gao Lishi didn't care and said goodbye and left.
Wang Maozhong smiled contemptuously, teased the child in his arms, and continued to greet the guests and play.
Some sensitive officials have already planned to sneak away.
The Mansion of the Prince Pei!
Wang Maozhong has today's wedding banquet, all designed by Pei Min.
Pay special attention to everything in dealing with the royal palace.
After learning what Wang Maozhong did, Pei Min couldn't help but smile and said, "This guy is so tacit with me!"
Although he knew that Wang Maozhong's temperament would be explosive at all, he could not have imagined that Wang Maozhong would be so unscrupulous that he didn't even need to brew emotions.
Sun Zhou sighed and said, "It is also a noble eunuch who is magnanimous. If it were me, I would have been so humiliated, and I would have been unable to hold this banquet with the surname Wang."
Pei Min heard this and smiled and said, "There is a hero from Gu in my hometown. He said, "Three kinds of people in the world cannot afford to offend: monks, women, and children." I added, I would rather provoke them all than provoke eunuchs. The eunuch Gao is not generous, he is just like me. No, he is even more cruel than me. I just want to pull Wang Maozhong off the horse, and he... wants Wang Maozhong to die!"
Pei Min and Gao Lishi have had many interactions and know that Gao Lishi can be intertwined and is a character.
Humility and open-mindedness, low-key and self-sufficientness, are not as disgusting as the villains and eunuchs in later movies and TV.
But if you really think that he is friendly and can be bullied, you will be very wrong.
Is it easy for someone who let Yuwen Rong, Li Linfu, Li Shizhi, Gai Jiayun, Wei Jian, Yang Shenjin, Wang Hui, Yang Guozhong, An Lushan, An Sishun, Gao Xianzhi and others to curry favor with each other and strive to rely on them?
Gao Lishi can make a big fuss. With his current power, Wang Maozhong can feel very uncomfortable.
But no matter how hard they were, they were just two dogs biting them.
At best, this Tibetan mastiff, Gao Lishi, has stronger combat power.
All the results were mediated by Li Longji.
What can Gao Lishi do if Li Longji intervene in mediation?
But today, Gao Lishi suffered all grievances and humiliation, without saying a word.
How could Li Longji sit on the spot and see the person he most favored and suffer such humiliation?
Li Longji personally avenged Gao Lishi and made a big fuss with him. It goes without saying which one is more terrifying.
With Gao Lishi here, Wang Maozhong is almost completely cool.
Palace!
Gao Lishi returned to the palace.
When Li Longji saw Gao Lishi come back, he laughed and said, "Why did he come back so soon and didn't sit down to ask for a glass of water and wine?"
Gao Lishi Cancan smiled and said, "The Duke of the Kingdom is a little unhappy and has no ministers left."
Li Longji asked in surprise: "What's wrong? I specially issued an order to celebrate him, but he is not happy?"
Gao Lishi wanted to speak but stopped, then said: "The Duke of the Kingdom disliked the young official given by His Majesty. He said that his son must be a third-rank official..."
Li Longji was instantly furious.
The official positions of the Tang Dynasty were analyzed based on their clothes, and there were four watersheds.
The first grade to the third grade is called the upper third grade, and the color of the official uniform is purple; the fourth grade to the fifth grade, the official uniform is red robe; the sixth grade to the seventh grade is green robe; the eighth grade to the ninth grade is wearing a green robe.
These four watersheds also symbolize the difficulty of promotion.
Especially the top three ranks, even the prime minister is only the third rank.
Wang Maozhong asked for a third-rank official when he spoke. This was no longer a pampering person, but a rampant person...
It's crazy and unreliable.
Li Longji's tolerance limit has been faintly revealed.
"Thank you for your hard work! You can get out first!"
Li Longji asked Gao Lishi to go down and rest, thinking about everything alone in the hall.
Wang Maozhong is one of the people he trusts the most and is also his playmate's slave.
After Wu Zetian stepped down, Li Longji gained freedom. According to the show of the King of Linzi, the court allocated him a criminal slave as a servant.
Wang Maozhong was with Li Longji at that time and was the first to follow Li Longji. Even Gao Lishi was not as good as Wang Maozhong.
At that time, Li Longji had never thought that he would become the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty and the king of a country. He would take Wang Maozhong to walk his dog and get rid of eagles all day long and do whatever he wanted.
Wang Maozhong is also specifically responsible for Li Longji's horse, camel, eagle and dog, and is his most caring playmate.
When he returned to Chang'an, Li Longji was determined to do something big, and the first thing he thought of was Wang Maozhong, who arranged him to win over the hearts of the people.
Along the way, Wang Maozhong certainly cheated him, but as a jester, he was still very qualified.
Li Longji thought that Wang Maozhong was with him all the way, and when he really wanted to do something, he really couldn't bear it, "Come on!"
He called Li Jingren and asked him to go to Wang Maozhong's residence, and secretly invited a minister to the banquet.
In the palace, even Gao Lishi and Yang Sixu, the two eunuchs with the highest status and most favored status, were inevitably humiliated by Wang Maozhong, let alone Li Jingren.
Li Jingren was not called a military official, but a civil servant or a civil servant of the Ministry of Personnel.
The Ministry of Personnel had no grudge against Wang Maozhong, but the second leader of the Ministry of Personnel was demoted from the capital because he directly advised Wang Maozhong to impeach him.
Neither Li Jingren nor this official from the Ministry of Personnel had any affection for Wang Maozhong.
When Li Longji heard their report, his face suddenly became gloomy.
At the first moment, Li Longji called Gao Lishi back and said, "General Gao, you have suffered such humiliation in the royal palace, why don't you tell me bluntly?"
Gao Lishi smiled and said, "I don't want to let Your Majesty make things difficult for you. Your Majesty values love and righteousness. The Duke of the Kingdom was the first person to follow Your Majesty. It's just a few words, and I don't mind it."
"You!" Li Longji pointed to Gao Lishi and said, "The biggest problem is that he is too good at thinking about me... In the past, when Wei was killed, the two ends of this thief and rat almost failed, and his life was hanging on the line. I don't want to say anything. Jingyuan told him to ruin the atmosphere in the army, and I forgive him. I did whatever he wanted before, and made a big fuss about the Jingzhao Prefecture Ministry of Justice, and I still shook my face. I still don't care. Today I congratulate him, but I blamed me for being a child and humiliated me like this. Who is unbearable?"
