Chapter 476 (2/2)
What Luo Yan said about Ouyang Ming's experience made Li Yuanhe dumbfounded. After a long time, he came back to his senses and said with a sigh, ”this man is really a strange man in the world.” Ouyang Ming is not greedy for power and beauty. Even if he is punished for this, he will not yield to strength. Li Yuanhe has already regarded Ouyang Ming as his idol in his mind, and his heart is full of admiration.
”Ha ha ha ha ha!” However, after hearing Li Yuanhe's words of respect, Luo Yan glared at Li Yuanhe for a long time, and finally laughed up. However, Li Yuanhe's face was puzzled by the smile. Until Li Yuanhe's face turned red, Luo Yan slowly stopped laughing. He even touched his eyes with his hand, wiped off the tears from the corner of his eyes, and said to Li Yuanhe, ”brother Li! Do you really think that Ouyang Ming refused to marry because of his unforgettable wife? ”Li Yuanhe listened to Luo Yan's question, immediately his heart was puffing, his mouth or subconsciously asked: ”how? Isn't it? ”
Luo Yan couldn't help laughing, but this time it wasn't just like that, but a sneer and said, ”brother Li! You were cheated by him! There are more than ten wives and concubines in Ouyang Ming's family, and they often go to places of fireworks to have fun. How can such a person be a man who yearns for his dead wife? It is appropriate to say that he is a sentimental seed! ”
”What?” Li Yuanhe, who had a very good impression of Ouyang Ming, couldn't accept such a big contrast from Luo Yan. He almost didn't take it back. When he looked at Luo Yan with disbelief on his face: ”brother Luo, didn't you just say that he refused the present emperor's marriage because he missed his wife, and even was demoted to the sixth grade official and never employed?”
Luo Yan, however, said with a smile: ”do you remember, what I said was Ouyang Ming, who refused his Majesty's marriage on the spot in the name of missing his wife. He did not say that Ouyang Ming really refused his majesty because of this reason! Missing his wife is just an excuse for Ouyang ming to refuse his majesty! As a matter of fact, when Ouyang Ming was in the imperial capital 15 years ago, he was a famous dandy who lingered in the GouLan place almost every day! His wife had been dead to him at that time, so he had not become a monk! ”
Li Yuanhe didn't understand immediately. He quickly asked, ”then why did he refuse his Majesty's marriage? It's your Majesty's sister! If he married her, he would be a royal relative, and his status would be improved a lot. Isn't it much stronger than now that he offends his majesty and becomes a sixth grade official who can never be promoted? ”
Luo Yan shook his head, but he could not help showing a trace of admiration in his eyes. He said, ”this is actually Ouyang Ming's wisdom. I have just said that. According to Ouyang Ming's achievements, even if he is a Shangshu order, it is no problem. If he marries the princess again, he will become the first king of different surnames in the state of Qin! Still that sentence, the height is too cold! If he really got to that point, I'm afraid Ouyang Ming would have been punished by others. Even if he would not be killed, he would be deprived of his power and become an idle man! ”
”But,” Li Yuanhe understood, but there were still some problems in his heart. He immediately asked, ”if according to what elder brother said, is Ouyang Ming guilty of deceiving the king? Is he not afraid that his majesty may blame him for this? ”
”Blame?” Luo Yan shook his head again and said with a smile, ”how to blame? Don't look at him now, he is just a small head of the six grade military department! However, his prestige in the imperial court was no less than that of the official Minister Wan Han! And do you think your majesty is really a fool today? I'm afraid that the day after the decree was issued, he had already figured it out, but he did not punish Ouyang Ming. Why? Isn't it because you like Ouyang Ming's ability? ”
Li Yuanhe showed a sudden insight. Now he understood why a man with such bearing as Ouyang Ming was just a six grade official, while Wang Ye, the son of Bian Cheng Wang family, was so respectful to him. Li Yuanhe can't help admiring such characters as Ouyang Ming. What Ouyang Ming has is not the kind of small wisdom of calculating, but the real wisdom!
However, Luo Yan, who was nearby, sighed with a long sigh, and a trace of happiness appeared on his face. He murmured: ”but I didn't expect that even Ouyang Ming even went to the third prince's account. It seems that our decision to depend on the third prince should be correct! The third prince is supported by Wang family and a group of leading generals, and assisted by such people as Ouyang Ming. It seems that there is a great hope for success
