I run a newspaper in ancient times

In August, golden osmanthus is fragrant, and it is the queen mother's birthday. All the female relatives are ordered to enter the palace to celebrate the queen mother's birthday.

Li Li sent a lipstick and a bottle of osmanthus-flavored essential oil, which were packed in an exquisite box, and immediately caught the eyes of the female relatives.

"I found this object by chance, and it was quite novel, so I bought it as a gift for my mother's birthday. Does my mother like it?"

No matter how old they are, those who love beauty will find these two things extremely rare.

The queen mother said to Prince Yi that her eyes are not eyes and her nose is not a nose, but now she laughed and sat upright, letting Li Li put on lipstick and essential oil for her.

This is Li Li's property, the Empress Dowager knows about it, and she will present it today in order to spread it among the female relatives so as to earn money.

Although it's a bit small, she doesn't care.This thing is much easier to use than rouge, and it is evenly applied, and the color is very positive, which complements her dignified atmosphere.

Looking over with envious eyes one by one, the Queen Mother became even happier, and praised his youngest son in front of everyone for the first time.

"No wonder this face is getting more and more beautiful. It turns out that I have been thinking about this all day long. Look at this watery appearance. The little princess of the Ai family is not born in vain."

Li Li: "..." It's better not to mention this yin and yang.

Suddenly there was low laughter from all around, Li Li twitched the corners of his mouth and said in displeasure: "You seem to regret that your son is a man with handles?"

"Is there any difference between your belt and yours?"

Li Li said twice: "Empress Dowager, today is your birthday, everyone is watching, remember to be solemn."

"Oh? Ai's family is not dignified. Does anyone here dare to say it?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"Mother, if you continue like this, my son will really wear women's clothing for you to see when he enters the palace next time." In terms of the thickness of his skin, Li Li is the only one in the world.

The Empress Dowager really bowed down, snorted, then raised her volume a little and said, "Speaking of these things, where did you find them?"

Li Li smiled instantly, and replied, "Huanyanfang, this is their new product, and it hasn't been sold yet."

Everyone suddenly realized that Huanyanfang is a rouge and gouache shop that has sprung up in recent years, but unlike other shops, his shop focuses on skin care, and those moisturizing creams are much more moisturizing than other places.

There is also the blending mask, which looks scary when applied, but once washed off, it is smooth and translucent, moist as ice. I heard that Prince Yi also used this product, and it became popular in the noble circle for a while.

Now there is such a peculiar rouge, which is small and exquisite, and can be carried around, and it can attract the attention of the side when it is used to touch up makeup at parties.

Look at the essential oil again, the aroma is tangy and long-lasting, much fresher and more refined than incense, and there is no smoke.

Thinking in this way, everyone kept this in their hearts one after another, and they had to go to Huanyanfang shop to have a look.

Li Li made an advertisement using the Empress Dowager as the endorsement, and the effect seemed to be pretty good. After a while, when Emperor Yan came, he followed his brother away.

After talking about it that day, the relationship between the two brothers is still very good.

"The matter of Yunzhou..."

Emperor Yan made a beginning, Li Li smiled and said: "Brother Huang also heard about it?"

"You really sent someone there?"

Li Li blinked and asked back: "Can't it be that the knights of the rivers and lakes can't see it and act chivalrously?"

Emperor Yan was helpless: "Then you have to be trusted by someone?"

Li Li sneered when he heard the words: "Believe it or not, it doesn't matter, the crimes of this minister of the official department are too numerous to write down, and it's a good thing for the emperor to let him move."

The greatest forces on the left, besides the aristocratic family, belong to the Ministry of Officials, which controls the promotion and evaluation of officials, and the Ministry of Households, which controls the treasury. With these two in hand, most officials in the world can obey.

Emperor Yan always wanted to place his own people in various ministries, but because of the many obstacles of the officials, it was difficult to get promoted, and he lingered at a low level.

For example, Gu Rushi has been sitting in the position of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites for seven or eight years. If he is not a person with firm belief, who can survive?

If Li Li could really remove this boulder as Li Li said, Emperor Yan would wake up laughing from his dreams.

only……

"It's not that easy, A Li, don't forget that no matter how many readers the gossip tabloids have and how much the people pay attention to it, it's just the momentum of the people, but it can't be judged for the court after all. Yuan Meiqing's guilt is conclusive, then There needs to be an official who enforces the law impartially to interrogate, although Xiong Ling, Shangshu of the Ministry of punishment, is usually low-key, but he is a hard-core leftist."

When Emperor Yan said this, he looked at Li Li with a sense of powerlessness in his words: "This is different from Yu Zicheng's case. At that time, Marquis Wu Ning and Prime Minister Zuo pointed out the wheat. I can only give up on Yu Zicheng and let Gu Rushi take his place smoothly. But this time...A Li, they came prepared, and they won't let you pick and choose again."

Emperor Yan has been emperor for many years, so he still has this vision.

Seeing that Li Li was silent and listening to him carefully, Emperor Yan patted him on the shoulder comfortingly and said, "It's because I always show my eagerness in front of you, which makes you act too hastily. Li, this matter has to be discussed in the long term. Otherwise, once the voices of the people are reported, the final result will not be satisfactory, let the people of the world be disappointed, and the voices of the people will fall short.”

Everything Li Li did was for himself, and Emperor Yan couldn't bear to criticize him, so he just reminded him like this.

Thinking that the people of Yunzhou have gone through thousands of mountains and rivers, came to the capital with many obstacles, and sued the public with their grievances. They thought that the grievances would be cleared and the wicked would have their end, but in the end, the power of the people was no match for the huge web of officials and officials. , the high-ranking officials full of evil still sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, looking down at a few struggling small fish that ran aground on the shore... The despair that rushed to their faces at that moment not only made these desperately struggling Yunzhou people unable to survive, but even those who watched People can also feel the suffocation.

Emperor Yan believed that with Li Li's intelligence, he would be able to think of the key point - the minister of the official department was able to move, but not now.

"It's strange that I have to care about Zuo Xiang or Yuan Shangshu. I heard that the people from Yunzhou didn't move, so they were waiting to see my joke." Li Li said.

"You have made them suffer so many times, I am afraid that you are secretly planning to make you fall, and you will also give me a warning."

Li Li looked at Emperor Yan, saw his brother's face was slightly worried, but not disappointed, and couldn't help saying: "I will waste such a good opportunity, brother Huang, it seems that it is not a pity, I don't blame Ah Li for making it up." claim?"

If Yuan Meiqing can't be moved this time, it will not be so easy to find another opportunity once people are alerted.

"The matter has come to this, what's the use of blaming you, I'm not a fool." Emperor Yan said with a smile, "I'm very surprised that you know about Yunzhou. A Li, these people have to settle down, otherwise I'm afraid I will be murdered."

"It's a pity that the arrow is on the string, so I have to send it. Brother Huang probably doesn't know about it. The matter of Yunzhou has already been spread outside. Changing his mind at this time will still hurt people's hearts, and it will hurt people's hearts." Li Li said with deep eyes.

Emperor Yan was shocked: "How could it be, who spread the word?"

Li Li smiled sarcastically: "Who else is there, Mr. Yuan who is eager to teach me a lesson in how to behave in the world, and does not hesitate to use himself as a weapon!"

Emperor Yan said angrily: "This old man!"

Just too arrogant!

Li Li lowered his eyes and opened the fan bit by bit: "I, Li Li, always take the easy way out. Since the other party makes a move, I will follow suit. They are going to the capital soon, so I will leave them the headlines of the gossip tabloids! "

The fan was fully unfolded, and he shook it lightly. As in the past, the wind and the moon were shining, his eyebrows were stretched, and there was a smile on his lips, but there was a chill in his eyes: "It's not certain who wins and who loses."

"Ali……"

"Brother Huang, just watch." Li Li was calm and calm.

At this time, Dong Lai whispered a few words to him, only to see Li Li's brows filled with doubt, and then nodded.

Emperor Yan asked: "What?"

"Muyang County Lord has something to ask me." Li Li said with a strange expression on her face, "I don't know Second Sister Huang very well. What does this niece want to do?"

Princess Lin'an is the elder sister of Emperor Yan and Li Li, ranking second, and there are only one or two princesses surviving in Beijing, and the Lord Muyang is her daughter.

Speaking of this, Emperor Yan coughed lightly, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid it's a marriage."

"Huh?" Li Li opened his eyes, "What does that have to do with me? Wait, who is she marrying?"

"I intentionally pointed her to the No. [-] Scholar in this subject. She probably came to you because she wanted you to help me find out about Liu Qiwen."

Emperor Yan had too few people who could use him. This year, Enke finally had a good seedling, so he would not let him go. What's more, this Liu Zhuangyuan was a talented young man. He was unmarried and was the son-in-law of the East Good candidate.

It's a pity that he didn't have a daughter. Among the princesses, the fifth princess who went to the north was the youngest, and all the others died young.

After choosing and choosing, only this eldest princess has a daughter who is suitable for marriage.

"Sister Huang is very satisfied with this future son-in-law, but this girl has a lot of thoughts and wants to ask you secretly." Emperor Yan was obviously not very happy with this niece's self-assertion.

Li Li understood it, so he beat the fan and said, "My brother doesn't agree with that. Marrying is the second reincarnation of my daughter's family. Whether she is a lover or not is really important. It depends on whether the rest of her life will be spent in honey or not." Cook it in Huanglian soup. Mu Yang has the awareness of this investigation, and I agree with both hands and feet. If the other party is a beast in clothes, he just jumped out of the fire pit."

Emperor Yan frowned when he heard the words, and said displeasedly: "I have been observing the character for a long time, even Miss Huang has asked someone to inquire about it, so there is nothing to worry about."

"Hey, she lives the life, she is the one who bears it, who will take care of it for her?" Li Li said, "If I have a daughter in the future, I hope she can get in touch with all kinds of men and pick out the ones she likes. Someone who is of good character and is willing to marry. Moreover, some men are very good at pretending, but they haven't trained a pair of piercing eyes to distinguish scumbag attributes."

Li Li murmured brokenly, and Emperor Yan's face became weirder the more he heard it.

If these remarks were made outside, I am afraid that they will attract scolding from the old-fashioned Confucian scholars.

Marriage is the order of the parents. How can a man and a woman give and receive privately according to the words of a matchmaker, which is against etiquette?

Such a woman who has been in contact with many men should be scolded for being promiscuous, shameless.

I don't know what Li Li is thinking, or is it strange that manly people are so strange?

"A Li, it's a good thing you don't have a daughter." Otherwise, this niece would be spoiled and unable to marry.

Li Li: "..." That's right, he won't have any children in the future, so he worries too much.

But can't he be allowed to complain for the poor women in the world?

Pedantry and old-fashioned obliterate human nature!

He wiped his face and said, "No matter, since my niece has come to look for me, I have to dig out Liu Qiwen's [-]th generation ancestor, I hope he is not a scumbag."
