Chapter 27: Virtue is not compatible with the heavenly master

Chapter 27 Virtue does not match the position, the heavenly master knows things like a god [Please vote for recommendations and reward]

After listening to Changsun Wuji's explanation, Changsun Chong was not stupid and was extremely scared at this time.

"Dad, is the emperor worried about our family's great career? He broke off the engagement before, and now he is forcing us to take office again and again. What should we do?!"

Changsun Wuji snorted: "The breakup of the engagement was purely due to your bad conduct. Later, in order to stabilize me, you couldn't promise to arrange another princess after you change your ways!"

He looked worried, "What I'm worried about right now is whether His Majesty has any intention to kill our family."

How could Changsun Chong know this?

He will only ask what should be done.

Changsun Wuji calmed down at this time, thinking of Su Chen's advice.

He secretly thought: "Master Tianshi knows everything like a god. Not only did he know about the reward that happened this morning, but he also expected that the imperial edict would arrive at home. This is enough to prove that he has real ability."

"If this is the case, I only need to follow the instructions of the Heavenly Master, and I will be able to seek good fortune and avoid disaster. However, the Heavenly Master did not tell me how to get the "Tang Lv Shu Yi" in the end."

Changsun Wuji was in a state of confusion at this time, but when he thought of Su Chen's calm face, he surprisingly calmed down.

"Let's go and meet the Heavenly Official." Changsun Wuji regained his composure.

The father and son arrived at the lobby, where a father-in-law and several officials from the Ministry of Etiquette were standing waiting.

There were other Zhangsun family members in the lobby, and they were all very happy. After all, they all knew that this was an imperial edict to award a reward.

Changsun Wuji glanced at the father-in-law who read out the imperial edict. He turned out to be the old eunuch Wuji who was accompanying Li Shimin.

He felt awe-struck, "It seems that Your Majesty is determined to win this matter."

The old eunuch Wuji laughed and said: "Prime Minister, Your Majesty has an imperial edict. Alas, there is no need to kneel down. Your Majesty has a verbal edict. There is no need to kneel down when the Majesty sees the imperial edict."

Having said that.

Changsun Wuji was still kneeling on the ground with his son and family members, which made the officials of the Ministry of Rites at a loss for what to do.

In the Taiji Hall, Changsun Wuji did not kneel to Li Shimin, but now he knelt down to the imperial edict. They were all at a loss.

Only the old eunuch had light in his eyes and thought about everything.

He smiled and said: "Sir, your hard work has made great achievements. His Majesty wants to reward you as Sikong and Minister of War. This is an imperial edict. You can read it yourself."

He handed over the imperial edict.

Changsun Wuji was very happy, everyone was smiling.

Even the housekeeper has prepared wedding money and will distribute it to everyone when the time comes.

Only Changsun Chong was trembling at this moment, while Changsun Wuji became calmer because he was determined and had already made up his mind.

Changsun Wuji did not accept the imperial edict, but kowtowed three times, "Eunuch, please report back to Your Majesty, I refuse the order!"

Wow!

Suddenly.

The Changsun family was in an uproar. Everyone was anxious and looked at each other.

The people in the Ministry of Rites were also stunned.

The old eunuch Wuji said: "Master Xiang, this is an honor and favor, why do you refuse this order?"

Changsun Wuji said: "I am an old minister whose virtue is not worthy of his position and whose strength is beyond his capabilities, but he is self-aware. Please just ask your father-in-law to report back."

The old eunuch Wuji repeatedly asked him to accept the order, but Changsun Wuji always refused.

The two sides were in a stalemate, and Changsun Wuji said: "If the father-in-law doesn't reply, I will kneel down and die at home."

The old eunuch Wuji didn't dare to respond. He quickly helped him up and promised again and again, "Don't worry, Mr. Prime Minister, I will go back and report to you soon. Please get up quickly. I don't dare to let you get hurt."

Then he quickly left with the people.

After the person left, the Changsun family members immediately came forward and asked why they refused to accept the order.

but.

Changsun Wuji did not explain, but stopped any celebration behavior and stated his position again and again.

Changsun Chong said: "Dad, I refuse this time, is that okay?"

Changsun Wuji said: "I don't know, it's just one step at a time. I will draft a memorial now and tell you that I am sick and rest at home."

Seeing Changsun Chong about to go down, he said again: "By the way, there is a girl in Wei Zheng's family who is about the same age as you. You go to her house to propose marriage."

Changsun Chong was stunned.

He was surprised and said: "Dad, are you kidding me? Wei Zheng is extremely smart, but his daughter is a bit demented."

Changsun Wuji smiled, "That's what it's like, go ahead."

Changsun Chong retreated reluctantly, but he had to obey the order.

The next day.

There is an interesting story circulating among the upper class in Chang'an City.

Changsun Chong mentioned to his friends in the tavern that he had fallen in love with Wei Zheng's slut and planned to propose her as a concubine.

The news reached Wei Zheng's home, and in the afternoon of the same day, Wei Zheng went to Changsun's home with a sword and wanted to cut Changsun Chong into eight pieces.

It is said that the two families almost got into a fight, and the Grand Masters of both families were at war with each other. The Grand Masters of both families were secretly competing with each other.

Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng were both masters, and they almost started fighting, even as they glared at each other!

The news reached the palace, and the next day at the Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin publicly scolded Wei Zheng for his misbehavior, going so far as to go to the official's house with a sword, which was offensive.

I also want to criticize Changsun Wuji for not teaching his son well enough to let his son say these words.

But.

Changsun Wuji complained that he was ill at home, and Changsun Chong also had no official position and was not allowed to go to court.

The only person who had some relevance was Empress Changsun. She couldn't be scolded, so she had to give up in the end.

Harem.

"Your nephew is such a bastard. I have promised to marry him another daughter in the future. But when he saw the beautiful girl in Wei Zheng's family, he tried to take a concubine."

Li Shimin cursed angrily in front of the queen, but as he cursed, he laughed again.

"These two old men are really enemies."

The queen also laughed, she knew that Li Shimin most wanted to see this kind of scene where the ministers were making trouble.

This is how the emperor's mind works.

Li Shimin suddenly said: "Your eldest brother once again rejected the positions of Sikong and Minister of War."

The queen said: "Maybe this is not my ambition."

Li Shimin said: "I just can't see his ambition."

The queen said: "Erlang, try again."

Li Shimin said: "He already claimed to be ill at home, and he still went to his home to seal it?!"

The queen said: "Ask Cheng Qian to visit him and take your orders with him. If he refuses, let Cheng Qian worship him as his teacher."

Li Shimin thought about it and felt it made sense.

The next day.

Changsun Wuji's family once again welcomed a member of the Tian family, and this time it was the prince.

"Uncle, don't get up, Cheng Qian can't bear it."

As soon as Li Chengqian entered the house, Changsun Wuji was about to get up from the bed, so he quickly went up and held him down.

Then he said: "Uncle, my father ordered me to bring good doctors and imperial edicts. Please don't touch them. I'll just read them."

Li Chengqian opened the imperial edict and read: "...conferred the title of Sikong to the eldest son Sun Wuji, and led the Minister of War..."

Before he finished reading the imperial edict, Changsun Wuji sighed in his heart, "The Heavenly Master is really a divine man, and he is really unwilling to forgive me."

He interrupted Li Chengqian and said, "Chengqian, there is no need to say anything. I will not accept the order. You go back and report it. I am ill and have no intention of attending court affairs. I hope to share the worries of the country, so I am willing to lead the revision of "Tang Lv Shu Yi"

", please give your Majesty's permission."

Li Chengqian was shocked and said, "That's a sinecure."

Changsun Wuji said: "I am ill at this time, so it is better to be idle."

Li Chengqian suddenly knelt down and said, "Please accept me as your disciple and learn the art of governing the country from my uncle."

Changsun Wuji was shocked. This was the emperor's killer move, to make him the crown prince and grand master.

Long En is no better than Sikong.

If it were before, he would have agreed because he also wanted to support Li Chengqian to become emperor. With this mentor status, he would have unlimited glory in the future.

but.

He refused.

Su Chen said that the emperor wanted to praise him and kill him!

"Let's talk about it. I'm tired. You can go back."

Li Chengqian was confused.

I had no choice but to go back and report in confusion.

at home.

Changsun Chong said in confusion: "Dad, "Tang Lv Shu Yi" is the work of Prime Minister Wei. Our family had a conflict with him the day before yesterday. Will he do it for you?!"

Please give me a recommendation ticket and a monthly ticket. During the double period, one monthly ticket can be used as two tickets. I beg you.
