Chapter 475
Huguang Chaling
Since Li Dongyang resigned from the position of the chief assistant of the cabinet, he returned to his hometown and opened a school named Dongyang Academy. He lived by teaching and educating people, but he also enjoyed himself.

In the thatched cottage on the back hill of Dongyang Academy, Li Dongyang personally cooks tea to welcome the guests. Old friends come from afar, so he is very polite.

Li Dongyang, Liu Jian, Xie Qian!
Li Gongmou, Liu Gongjuan, and Xie Gongyou are so eloquent!
The three people who were once all-powerful in the officialdom and gave advice to the country gathered again after many years.

After pouring a cup of tea for Liu Jian and Xie Qian, Li Dongyang smiled and said: "The two virtuous brothers are not in the Hongzhi Dynasty to assist His Majesty Hongzhi, why come to me when you have time."

Also suppressed by Zhu Houzhao, the three giants of the cabinet, Liu Jian and Xie Qian went to the Hongzhi Dynasty after the fusion of the sixteen dynasties of the Ming Dynasty, and were greatly promoted and reused by Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youtang, but Li Dongyang stayed here.

Now that Liu Jian and Xie Qian came back, instead of going to see Zhu Houzhao, he came to see him secretly. Li Dongyang would not believe it if there was no trick in it.

"I haven't seen you for many years, Brother Li is still as thoughtful as ever."

Liu Jian and Xie Qian looked at each other, and said solemnly: "Brother Li and I have been friends for many years. In front of you, I will not be dumb. Brother Li has heard of King An before." "

Li Dongyang's heart moved, and he said calmly: "His Majesty Hongzhi's youngest son, and now His Majesty's younger brother, even if I live in the mountains, I have heard of it."

The Taiwu Continent is adjacent to the Hongzhi Continent, and news spread the fastest. It has long been known that Emperor Hongzhi has a new son.

"His Royal Highness King An is smart and studious, and he has the style of His Majesty Hongzhi's benevolent monarch. He specially invites the two of us to come here as lobbyists. He wants to worship Brother Li as his teacher. I wonder what Brother Li wants?"

"His Majesty Taiwu, taught by brother Li, is a man of great talent and grand strategy, and his power is so powerful in the world. If he can teach King An, His Highness King An will inherit the foundation of His Majesty Hongzhi one day. Brother Li alone will serve as the emperor's teacher for two terms. It will be a good story to spread."

Xie Qian is indeed eloquent, and the meaning revealed inside and outside the words is very tempting.

The two masters of the emperor, if it were someone else, I'm afraid they couldn't help but agree to it long ago, but who is Li Dongyang?

Li Dongyang savored the fragrance of the tea in the cup carefully, and said lightly: "The old man has no intention of meddling in the affairs of the royal family, and only wants to spend the rest of his life in the mountains."

"Talk about the books of sages and sages with your disciples, and go out for outings in your spare time, touring the mountains and rivers. This is convenient and sufficient."

After some verbal exchange, Li Dongyang has judged that the never-seen King An is also a person who is not satisfied with the status quo, and Liu Jian and Xie Qian may have already become his guest.

He didn't want to get involved in King An's win-win. Half his life was ups and downs, and he had enjoyed power and status, so why bother himself.

He has never met King An, but he knows one thing very well, no matter how much King An struggles, he will never be able to defeat his ruthless student, who inherited the Hongzhi Dynasty. Doesn't that student exist?

The person who knows Zhu Houzhao best in the world, besides Wang Yangming, is Li Dongyang. He has seen through early on that Zhu Houzhao's ambition cannot be contained by a Taiwu dynasty, and sooner or later he will attack other dynasties.

Once that day comes, the Hongzhi Dynasty will definitely bear the brunt. Zhu Houzhao is the son of Emperor Hongzhi, and it is only natural to take over the Hongzhi Dynasty.

"Brother Li."

Xie Qian wanted to persuade him again, but was stopped by Liu Jian.

"King An is generous and benevolent, brother Li, why don't you think about it again."

Xie Qian pointed out something.

Li Dongyang took a deep look at the two of them, and resolutely refused: "No need, in today's world, outstanding people come forth in large numbers. With my little knowledge, I'm afraid I won't be able to teach His Royal Highness King An too much, so I won't make a fool of myself."

There was a little more anger in the words, Wang An was benevolent and generous, in other words, Zhu Houzhao was cruel and unkind, and the hidden meaning in Liu Jian's words made him very unhappy.

Although he didn't like Zhu Houzhao's ruthless and ruthless approach to profit, but he always thought that Zhu Houzhao was his most proud student. Without Zhu Houzhao's drastic efforts to change, how could the Taiwu Dynasty be among the top three in the sixteen dynasties of the Ming Dynasty.

"Brother Li, are you really willing to live in his shadow for the rest of your life?"

Speaking of this, Liu Jian stopped pretending, and vomited all the resentment hidden in his heart:
"When he first ascended to the Great Treasure, if there were no three of us to support him, the world would have been in chaos."

"But after he came to power, how did he treat us? He was pushed out of the court one after another, and he didn't save us any face."

"Brother Xie and I support King An. We have no other ideas, but just want to win."

Li Dongyang was still indifferent, and asked back: "The two virtuous brothers want to fight each other, but have you ever thought about it, can King An beat that one?"

"Since the sixteen dynasties of the Ming Dynasty lived together, the Taiwu Dynasty has become more and more powerful, and it has not lost the wind when it competed with Taizu Emperor Hongwu and Taizong Emperor Yongle."

"King An, is it comparable to Taizu, Taizong, or comparable to Xingzong, Renzong, and Xuanzong?"

Liu Jian and Xie Qian were speechless. Although Wang An was quite talented, he was not at the same level as the founding five dragons of the Ming Dynasty.

"If brother Li can help you, King An might as well not be able to."

Before Xie Qian finished speaking, Li Dongyang interrupted: "I have many disciples in my life, but the most proud student is His Majesty today."

In a word, he expressed his position, he would never get involved with King An.

Looking at the two old friends, Li Dongyang really couldn't bear to see them go to a dead end, and advised earnestly: "You two virtuous brothers, listen to my advice, stop fighting as soon as possible, you guys, you can't beat him."

"Since the beginning of his ascension, when you have seen him fail, suppress all forces, and compete with the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, he has never suffered a loss."

"King An, or His Majesty Hongzhi, may not be his opponent. If you try to wrestle with him, you will only end up putting yourself in it."

Liu Jian and Xie Qian were depressed. They came here to win over Li Dongyang, use Li Dongyang's reputation to help King An take the throne, and then fight Zhu Houzhao, who played them in the palm of his hand, to fight for their own breath.

Unexpectedly, they were taught a lesson by Li Dongyang in turn, and both of them felt extremely unhappy about it.

Before it even started, Li Dongyang concluded that they couldn't beat Zhu Houzhao, so they didn't believe that Zhu Houzhao could still be an undefeated god.

To put it bluntly, they don't care much about whether Wang An can take the position.

They were named Zhishi at the beginning, but in fact they were kicked out of the court. Both of them were holding back their breath and couldn't vomit.

"The way is different, we don't conspire with each other, since Brother Li doesn't want to get involved in right and wrong, we two don't want to bother you too much, let's leave."

After drinking the tea in the cup, Liu Jian and Xie Qian got up and were about to leave.

Since Li Dongyang can't be said, let's leave quickly, if spies from Dongchang or Jinyiwei spy on him, it will be troublesome!

"Please."

Li Dongyang did not keep the two of them, but looked up at the sky and sighed softly: "The mountain is about to rain and the wind is blowing over the building!"

King An is restless, and Zhu Houzhao is a strong and domineering master. Once the wind blows, it will bring about the beginning of a killing.
