The first thousand ninety-nine chapters fortunately
"Sweet?"
Liu Mingzhi held up the dripping tea cup and looked at Li Zheng in astonishment. Apparently, the smell of the tea made him a little shocked!
Li Zheng smiled lightly and sat back on the dragon chair, looking at the astonished Liu Mingzhi with narrow eyes: "I have never drunk such finely ground sugar. Your life is better than mine!"
"Gran sugar? Isn't it red on top of the crane?"
"Hedinghong? Liu Mingzhi, do you think I will be so stupid? Will I use Hedinghong and your life to test an important minister who has made great contributions to my campaigns in the east and west?"
"I don't want your life, I want your attitude!"
"My son, I would like to thank my father for not killing me!"
"Liu Mingzhi, are you afraid of anything in your life?"
Liu Mingzhi pondered for a moment and looked at Li Zheng quietly: "If you are stupid and weak-minded when you are young, you will learn nothing when you are young, you will work hard but gain nothing, you will regret when you are middle-aged, and you will end up with regrets in old age. There is nothing more fearful in life than this, obviously
I have been doing nothing in my life, yet I still say that being ordinary is valuable!"
"The summary is very subtle. It's obvious that you have done nothing, but you still talk about how valuable it is!"
Li Zheng looked at the map hanging on the shelf with a melancholy expression: "Liu Mingzhi, I have been emperor for thirty-four years. Do you know what I am afraid of?"
"My son is a foolish man, how can he understand my father's will?"
"Alas! In my life, I know that I am not as good as the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. No one can make mistakes without being a sage. I have made countless mistakes, big and small, in my life, but I am not afraid of them!"
"Since I succeeded to the throne, I have worked hard and conscientiously. I have never dared to slack off in the slightest. I do not seek merit, but I seek no major faults. During the thirty-four years of my reign, I will not comment on or beautify my merits and demerits.
, don’t belittle it!”
"It is said that the Qing Dynasty is the most fair. Let my merits and demerits be left to future generations to comment on at will!"
"It's just a handful of clay that can influence right and wrong, success or failure. How can a handful of clay be used to control right and wrong?"
"So I am not afraid of anything, except that I am afraid that I will not have the face to meet the ancestors of the Li family, and I am afraid that they will accuse me underground of not passing on the inheritance of my ancestors!"
"There is no one in this world that I am afraid of!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Li Zheng's sad expression and sighed silently: "I would like to say something disrespectful. There are three great tragedies in life: heroes grow old, beauties grow old, and talents are exhausted!"
"Haha, I am that hero who dies in his twilight years, do you agree?"
"My son and I agree that my father is an unparalleled hero who is rare in all dynasties."
"Do you mean that I am really old?"
Liu Mingzhi hesitated for a moment and nodded resolutely: "Yes!"
Li Zheng suddenly slapped the dragon case, and looked at Liu Mingzhi with some trembling. There was such a big movement in the palace, and the chief steward and a group of eunuchs stood outside the palace looking anxiously in the direction of the palace!
But no one dares to take a step beyond the limit!
"Liu Mingzhi, do you know? This sentence is enough for you to die ten times and a hundred times!"
"Father won't!"
"Give me a reason, otherwise, even if you don't die, I will never forgive you lightly!"
"My father is an unparalleled hero who is rare to see in three hundred years! Good medicine is bitter in the mouth and good for the disease, and loyal words are harsh to the ears and help the deeds. Because my father punished his sons and ministers with just one word, he will not work hard to cure him for thirty or forty years!"
Li Zheng suddenly sat on the dragon chair, looking at the roof with sharp eyes and a sense of vicissitudes of life: "The unparalleled hero who is rare to see in three hundred years, these words are more comfortable than long live long live, listen to
Be practical!”
"Liu Mingzhi!"
"My son is here!"
"You make a vow to me!"
"I ask you to swear an oath to God, your ancestors of the Liu family, that you will never use weapons on the Li family in your lifetime. If you violate this oath, both humans and gods will be abandoned, and heaven and earth will destroy you. There will be no descendants of the Liu family forever.
Day of peace!”
Liu Mingzhi took a deep breath and walked up to Li Zheng and raised his left hand with three fingers together with a solemn expression!
"Liu Mingzhi hereby swears by the ancestors of the Liu family that he will never use swords against the Li family in his lifetime. If he violates this oath, both humans and gods will be abandoned. Heaven and earth will destroy him. The descendants of the Liu family will never have peace!"
Li Zheng waved his hand with a relaxed look on his face: "Sit down!"
"Thank you, Father!"
Li Zheng straightened up, dipped his pen in ink, and started writing on the delicate imperial edict!
"Liu Mingzhi, you have lived up to me, and I will never let you down. In a hundred years from now, when the prince ascends the throne and becomes emperor, you can be the minister of the auxiliary country. If Yu'er does not have the virtue of a wise king, you can wield the golden whip of beating the emperor at will.
In other words, if there is a treacherous official who deceives the emperor, deceives the emperor's heart, forms a party for personal gain, and harms the government's principles, you can use the golden whip to kill him first and then report him, and the emperor has authorized it!"
"Keep this imperial edict carefully, and be sure to protect the country and the country in times of crisis!"
"Isn't my father afraid that my son will become a powerful minister who will dominate the government in the future?"
Li Zhenghan shook his head with a smile, and gently held up the jade seal to cover the imperial edict: "You drank the tea without hesitation, which is the best explanation for me about the Li family. I believe in you, and you will do it because of what I just said."
Do you feel resentful because of the temptation?"
"My son, I don't know. My teacher said, if people don't respect me, it's because I have no talent. If I don't respect others, it's because I have no virtue. If people don't tolerate me, it's because I'm incompetent. If I don't tolerate people, it's because I'm immeasurable. If people don't help me, it's because I'm immeasurable. If people don't help me, it's because I'm incompetent.
I do nothing; if I don’t help others, I am unkind.”
Li Zheng nodded slightly, rolled up the imperial edict and put it in front of Liu Mingzhi: "I understand. You can take the imperial edict and go back first. After a reunion year at home, you will go to the north. You must govern Yingzhou well, and the officials in Fuzhou can manage the people's livelihood. I
I hope that when you return to court, you and my son will have a chance to see each other again!"
"Father, before I say goodbye, I have a few words to give to my father!"
"Say it!"
"The king works with his heart, and the soldiers work with their lives!"
"I understand. I will try my best to let all Dalong's soldiers fight for the country without any worries and become a victorious army!"
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly and held up the imperial edict on the table: "My son, please retire!"
After Liu Mingzhi left, Li Zheng took a deep breath and wrote on the rice paper again: "People don't respect me."
"Old Zhou!"
"Your Majesty, we are here, what are your orders?"
"Has the court affairs at Qinzheng Hall been over?"
"Your Majesty, we don't know either. How about we send someone to ask?"
"No, please leave this letter in the hands of the prince after the court is over, and you can go pack your bags!"
"According to the order, what kind of luggage does Your Majesty want to pack, and which empress's palace do you want to go to?"
"Don't go anywhere, leave the palace!"
"The emperor's words are sage and wise, but it is difficult to see them in the human world!"
"This year's Spring Festival will not be spent in the palace. The two of us will travel in private and travel around the world to see the suffering in the world!"
"Hearing is false and seeing is believing. Since I have become the emperor, I must do a good job as an emperor in my lifetime. I must not ruin my reputation by being dull and incompetent as I grow old!"
"The two of us, your Majesty, can you bring more people?"
"Just the two of us, you, the best innate master in the world, can't even protect me, a bad old man, right?"
"We obey your order!"
Outside the palace gate, Liu Mingzhi put the imperial edict in a cloth bag on his horse, rolled up the sleeves of his official robe and looked at the blood-red lines on his arms!
"Thankfully it was just a test and not a real murderous intention. It was sugar tea instead of poisonous tea. Otherwise, a body that is immune to all poisons will not be able to compete with a cold heart!"
"If the tea is really poisonous, my father, my father, and my son-in-law will have to pull out two dragon whiskers even though they know that they are going to die!"
"Fortunately, a wise king meets a good minister, what a blessing!"
