In the eyes of the ministers, Li You was full of bad deeds and unsightly, but in the eyes of Li Shimin, he was a versatile man in both civil and military affairs, and he was the unicorn son given to him by God!
Based on the few things that happened in the past two days, Li You not only had no fault, but also made great achievements!
Therefore, Li Shimin felt that he must reward Li You!
Regarding the fact that he owns a copy of Li You's diary, Li Shimin does not intend to tell anyone now. This copy of the diary is simply an artifact.
Perhaps this will become the exclusive ability of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Although this copy of the diary now only allows him to see and hear Li You's thoughts, with the passage of time and his continuous research, he may be able to hear the thoughts of other people in the future.
An emperor who can grasp people's true inner thoughts will be unrivaled!
After understanding this, Li Shimin has raised the importance of the copy of the diary to the same level as the jade seal passed down from the country!
Naturally, such an important and hidden matter cannot be made known to the ministers, otherwise it will definitely cause panic.
Li Shimin's sharp eyes scanned the faces of the ministers in the Ganlu Palace and asked calmly: "Do you all have the same idea as Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng? Do you think I am just a confused king? Hmm?"
As soon as these words came out.
Even Wei Zheng, who had the courage to speak out and remonstrate directly, remained silent at this moment, and the ministers in the Manlu Palace were even more silent, not daring to say a word.
No one is stupid to shoot the first bird. They know that if anyone is the first to stand up and speak at this time, the possibility of death is the greatest. It is not worth it no matter how you think about having your head chopped off for a dandy prince.
Just when all the ministers thought that Li Shimin was about to explode and announced how to deal with them.
But I heard Li Shimin's hearty laughter.
"Hahaha! It seems that all Wei Zheng and Sun Wuji have just said are angry words. In your hearts, I am not as stupid and unprincipled as Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty!"
"I am very gratified and happy that you have spoken out and dared to remonstrate for the sake of the country and the country of the Tang Dynasty!"
"But... what I want to tell you is that even if a minister is really killed on the pillar of Ganlu Palace today, and even if you call me an ignorant and ignorant king, I will let Li You open a palace in Taiji Palace. , be appointed General Zuo Wuwei!"
As soon as Li Shimin said these words, all the officials were shocked!
This is the first time His Majesty has made a decision despite the opposition of all ministers!
Just for the sake of a lazy dude, King Yan, who sleeps all day long and goes to the entertainment center every day!!!
"Your Majesty, you must not do this!"
Changsun Wuji suddenly raised his head, burst into tears, knelt on the ground, and shouted loudly to persuade.
Even if he beat Changsun Wuji to death, he could not figure out why Li Shimin, who had always been open-minded and open-minded and listened to advice with an open mind, seemed to be a completely different person today, insisting on going his own way and insisting on defending and rewarding King Yan despite the opposition of all ministers.
Although Changsun Wuji was prostrate, he still quietly looked back and winked at the standing ministers such as Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, as if to tell everyone that now is the time for us to unite and admonish His Majesty, and hurry up and do our best.
Seeing this, the ministers headed by Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui quickly stepped forward and knelt down.
"I am waiting for death to remonstrate!"
But Li Shimin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Xuanling, you are Zhongshu Ling. It is up to you to draw up the imperial edict for King Yan Li You to open the palace and appoint Zuo Wuwei as the general. It is you who will go to Chengxiang Palace to announce the edict!"
"If you don't want to do it, then don't do this Zhongshu Order."
After saying that, he left directly without giving Fang Xuanling a chance to refuse.
When Changsun Wuji and others raised their heads, there was no trace of Li Shimin, and they were just stunned on the spot.
Changsun Wuji looked at the red palace pillar next to him, but in the end he didn't muster up the courage to bump into it.
It doesn't matter if he loses his official position, but if he just admits defeat, his grandson Wuji will not be able to hold his head high in front of the ministers from now on.
The most shocking thing is Fang Xuanling. Now he can only choose between issuing an imperial edict or losing his official position! It seems that he has to accept this edict or not.
"My lords, His Majesty has left. You should go back quickly." Wang Ling walked over and said with a smile.
"My lord, please advise your majesty not to do that." Changsun Wuji said.
"Lord Changsun, you are really superior to me." Wang Ling said: "You followed His Majesty to break out of the mountains and seas of fire. Your Majesty can tolerate you, but if I go and speak out, what will happen... I don't even dare to think about it."
"In addition, I would also like to advise everyone, King Yan is no longer the King of Yan in the past, and your impression of him cannot remain in the past."
"Okay, that's it for now. Sir, please go back."
After hearing Wang Ling's words, all the ministers also knew that it was impossible to see Li Shimin again today. The previous trick of being unable to kneel down had already been used and it didn't work at all. He bumped into the Manna Hall and died. They didn't have the courage, so they had to
San San left.
The Duke's Mansion of Qi.
Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and other officials were all present, but Wei Zheng was missing.
"Your Majesty looks really confused!"
"Hey! This can no longer be said to be confusion, it is simply stupid!"
"I still haven't figured out how Concubine Yin, Prince Yan, mother and son fed His Majesty the soul-stirring soup, and how they could be so protected by Your Majesty!"
"It would be fine if we just let King Yan open his mansion. According to the convention for princes to open their mansions, the prince must move out of the palace to open his mansion. However, His Majesty rewarded the former Qin Palace to King Yan to open his mansion. The meaning is too obvious!
"
"The appointment of the Zuowuwei General should not be underestimated. This is a guard. No prince in the court has this right. Even the King of Wei only serves as the Zuohouwei General and does not have the actual power to command the army."
"It must be Concubine Yin's vixen who has bewitched Your Majesty. Otherwise, how could King Yan be so ignorant and ignorant as to be rewarded by His Majesty!"
A group of lower-ranking courtiers were having a heated discussion in the outer hall. This was the residence of Sun Wuji, the eldest son of the State of Qi. There were servants and handlers around him. They didn't have to worry about hearings through the walls, so they naturally spoke freely without any scruples.
Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, and Fang Xuanling were in the inner hall.
Listening to the discussion among the officials outside, Changsun Wuji felt even more angry.
He got up and went to the outer hall. The officials immediately looked at him.
"Everyone, I have gathered you all today to discuss the matter of King Yan. In my opinion, King Yan has no virtue or talent, and is extremely mediocre. He only knows how to hunt, sleep, and go to the amusement park. Such a prince will never be able to enter the palace of Prince Qin.
Let alone let him take charge of the military!"
"Prince Qin's Mansion is the former palace of His Majesty. You must be very clear about what this means. If King Yan really succeeds in moving in, then the Tang Dynasty will be in danger! It may even be destroyed!"
"As courtiers of the Tang Dynasty, we cannot just watch the country of the Tang Dynasty change into danger, let alone watch His Majesty make mistakes and be scolded by future generations behind his back. Therefore, I suggest that you join me in admonishing him if he dies again!"
