Li Zhaode's wording is very unkind, but this is the Li Zhaode that everyone knows, but some people are relieved because of this.

At this time, Li Dan also retreated to the banquet, and sighed and said: "King Yong's merit is great, and I know it." Therefore, asking the princes is that it is difficult to determine the reward. The magnificence is like this, and the non-special reward is not enough to show. But now that the court is newly determined inside and outside, it is not difficult to use it, and I am afraid that people in the world will discuss the heavenly family and expand the collection of treasures to give to their own ......"

"Heaven and the people are all one. King Yong is a little like this, and his deeds are like this, even if he is not born into a heavenly family, it is enough to be called a beautiful weapon that is reused by the society. Your Majesty's worries should be long-term. The state is out of control, and the prime minister is guilty, so he can't be mean to the hero. It seems that the likes of Xuan Wei can't self-examine their own failures, but instead hurt the country's pillars and heroes with narrow and evil words, which has greatly failed to be fair! ”

Li Zhaode continued to speak, and his words did not hide his disgust for Cui Xuanwei and even Di Renjie's arguments.

Hearing Li Zhaode's words, a wry smile appeared on the corner of Di Renjie's mouth, and he gave a long salute, and then retreated to the banquet and didn't say anything more. It's just that whenever his eyes swept over the emperor Li Dan in the hall, his eyes became complicated, and he was more or less disappointed in his heart.

Putting aside their respective positions and political opinions, during the period of today's meeting alone, the emperor's attitude changed several times, and to put it nicely, he was as good as a stream, but in fact he was just going with the flow and had no plan at all.

Cui Xuanwei was whipped by Li Zhaode with words, and he was naturally angry in his heart, but even His Majesty the Emperor had already stated that King Yong was indeed a great meritorious, and he couldn't continue to argue about his own arguments, so he simply hung his head and said nothing, but his eyes continued to wander around several people in the hall.

At this time, Xue Ji, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, got up and said: "King Yong's heavenly family is a hero, not trapped in grace and glory, and his meritorious achievements are frequent, and he is admirable. And because he was born from a heavenly family, his deeds cannot be taken for granted. Before his voice was written, he enjoyed a great deal of grace that surpassed that of the laity. This heavenly family is kind to use all means, not to waste the work of nurturing, whether to pay heavily or not, and it does not hurt the court's plan to reward the people. Only the soldiers who are diligent and brave in Longbian, loyal and commendable, not only rewarded, not enough to create grace ......"

Xue Ji proposed a new idea, and the reason is fair. King Yong was born in the heavenly family, and he has enjoyed all kinds of honors before he has made meritorious contributions, and now he has accumulated meritorious achievements, and he is only repaying the nurturing grace of the heavenly family. The focus of the court's rewards should still be placed on the soldiers of the Longyou Frontier.

So when Xue Ji finished making a statement, many courtiers present also echoed it. It's not just because I think what Xue Ji said makes sense, but if I have to make a statement, echoing Xue Ji is undoubtedly the safest and safest. After all, Xue Ji's participation in politics as the emperor's confidant is a well-known thing, and his attitude can represent the emperor's attitude to a certain extent.

Li Dan did not agree with Xue Ji's words for the first time, but turned his eyes and fell on Zheng Rong, who had been sitting in the seat without saying a word, and said with a smile: "Zheng Siye is a proud relative of his heavenly family, with deep morality and profound strength, and he should not sit idle here in public or private." I want to hear what Zheng Siye saw here. ”

Zheng Rong was named to ask questions, so he avoided the table, walked into the hall, and first gave a salute before saying: "The minister's business is not this full-time, today is just a full seat, and he is prepared, and he does not dare to make a discussion easily." The saint asked a question, but he did not dare not answer. Only to thank the grace of heaven, pull out the humble door, and have to be friends with the famous king of heaven.

His Royal Highness King Yong's contribution to Dingding and Zhenguo, all the major events experienced, if there are stubborn one or two private plans, how can this complete achievement? The minister felt that His Royal Highness was high-spirited, admired it, and was proud of it, and his clumsiness was no longer allowed to be counted. As for personal feelings, I have everything, and it is not enough to express my righteousness! ”

Zheng Rong's speech suddenly made the atmosphere in the political hall stranger, and the seriousness of the previous-for-tat confrontation was diluted, and many people looked at Zheng Rong with envy in their eyes.

When Emperor Li Dan heard Zheng Rong's words, he couldn't help but have a complicated expression for a while, and he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. On the official side, I don't have much say in this, but you must ask my opinion, I have everything to do with this kinship, and I am willing to give him everything.

These words are alluding to Xue Ji's argument that King Yong is a member of the Tang family, which is not a reason to be mean to him. If His Majesty the Emperor really values family affection, King Yong's great achievement should be more rewarded.

Zheng Rong, as the official father-in-law of King Yong, although he is not ranked in the current political hall, but since he speaks, no one dares to despise him.

As Zheng Rong finished speaking, Prime Minister Lu Yuanfang also stood up and said: "There is still a theory among the people that the valley is preparing for disasters and preparing for things. Moreover, he annihilated the Tibetan army in Qinghai, raised the prestige of our country, and reassured our borders.

With this person, there is no heavy consumption inside and there is heavy merit outside, so the scholar is beyond the reach of the minister. King Yong's merit is majestic, talented and slaughtered, the court is entrusted with the western affairs, the chaos is in Guan Fu, the Hu is in the river meander, and the killing is in Qinghai. On the amount of work, it is really putting the cart before the horse, and only using geometry to do the best is the great plan for the benefit of the country and the family! ”

After Lu Yuanfang's words, the audience was already silent. After hearing these words, everyone suddenly realized that it was indeed meaningless to discuss the merits of King Yongqing. Soon after King Yong's westward expansion, he had already done so many deeds.

Each of them, for the Tang Dynasty, which has just experienced the coup turmoil and the initial decision of the dynasty, can give people a headache, and once it is not handled well, it can make the state affairs erosive.

However, after King Yong's journey to the west, the court had little to do with Shaanxi's affairs, but King Yong was able to handle them in an orderly manner. And in this process, the imperial court did not give any assistance at all.

After such careful thinking, everyone realized a problem, the current King Yong can be said to have nothing to do with the court, but if the court does not have King Yong, it must not. With all the authority that King Yong has now, even if the imperial court sends three or five talented people, it will be difficult for him to completely take over, and he can do as well as King Yong.

After realizing this, some courtiers gradually realized why the atmosphere seemed so strange at the beginning of today's deliberations.

Di Renjie, who was accustomed to Taoguang and obscurity, and did not fight in everything, actually spoke first, and he had a lot of opinions about Longbian's merits. As for Prime Minister Cui Xuanwei, his attitude is even more obvious, he is full of malice towards King Yong, and almost exceeds the group of Guan Longxun nobles who hate King Yong the most in the current situation.

Li Zhaode first made a speech before expressing his own opinion on the matter, which is also very contrary to the usual style of acting.

As for the officials of King Yong's lineage, they let the courtiers argue, but they have been silent and do not argue. It turned out that including King Lu's early exit, he was full of confidence.

Now Lu Yuanfang has taken the initiative to break the underlying logic of the current situation that the public has not realized for a while, and the amount of information contained in it is so large that it is difficult for people to digest it for a while, but it can also make people associate it according to their specific situations.

Hearing Lu Yuanfang say this, the corners of Emperor Li Dan's mouth also trembled unnaturally, the reason why he said before starting the meeting that today's discussion of merit and nothing else was that he still wanted to maintain an illusion of decency, and he didn't want to expose the dilemma that the court was helpless in the face of the problem of King Yong, and he didn't want to expose King Yong's irreplaceability for the current Tang Sheji, and even surpassed his own emperor!

Di Renjie and other Hebei ministers took the lead in their statements, which really made Li Dan's mind settled, at least at the moment, there was no unanimous speech in the court. But then Li Zhaode's statement made him confused, and even secretly wanted to retreat.

Li Dan is dissatisfied with the current situation and wants to make some attempts to change, maybe he thinks he is hiding it well, but Li Zhaode, Di Renjie and others have been tested by political battles for a long time and have rich experience, how can they not see what the emperor thinks.

Li Zhaode seems to be holding back on the matter of King Yong, but in essence, it is aimed at Emperor Li Dan's heart that has gradually become turbulent, but has no strategy at all.

The Emperor wanted to make a difference, but he didn't know where to start, what adjustments to make, and what situation to achieve. However, Li Zhaode, as the most powerful prime minister in the political affairs hall, his existence means that the current ruling order is running.

He made a big fuss and threw out his resignation, just to let the emperor calm down and look forward a little, even if he broke the current order of the court, in the next newly formed order, how much can the emperor be the master? Is the order that has been achieved the kind that the emperor wants?

Not to mention Emperor Li Dan, Li Zhaode is also disappointed in the current situation, even if he has a lot of authority in this order. Moreover, the emperor's intentions are shallow, and there will continue to be people who will perceive and use them, and the way is nothing more than to attack Li Zhaode.

Although Li Zhaode has no shortage of fighting spirit and is not afraid of any challenge, he feels that the Tang Dynasty New World, which he has won with great difficulty, should no longer be obsessed with all kinds of internal friction and political struggles.

So he expressed his resignation, and it was really not a pampered and coquettish retreat, and King Yong's deeds really made him envious of the situation of withdrawing from disputes and focusing on the side of the camp.

He may not have the talent and strength of King Yong, but if he can go north and concentrate on solving the border problems of the Turks, he will also look forward to it, and he will even be willing to give up the prime minister's position for this.

After all, now he is already the biggest and most eye-catching target in the political situation of Shendu, as long as he does not fight to the death for a day, the black hand hidden in the shadows will not stop. And what's even more terrifying is that there may be one of these black hands that belongs to the emperor!

Lu Yuanfang's straightforward speech made the following discussions perfunctory, and everyone was no longer in a hurry to express any opinions on this, but began to think about some more personal issues.

Feeling the change in the atmosphere, Li Dan simply stopped the deliberations, ordered the political hall to continue, and left the political hall.

After leaving the political hall, Li Dan did not return to the palace, and after a little muttering, he said in a deep voice: "Go to Shangyang Palace." ”
