Chapter 683 Private Banquet
Therefore, no matter who Li Shimin recommends, the emperor will have such a sentence waiting for him, so why bother thinking about who to choose, wouldn't it be easy to listen to the emperor himself?
Compared with the Li father and son, who are full of hearts, Pei Lin is pure like a virgin raised in the boudoir, all he can think of is that Li Gang is more upright, if he is a household secretary, it should be a good thing for the Qin Palace.
Moreover, he also thought that since King Qin returned to Beijing, although it was still very scary, compared with the past, it was much more restrained, and he had never had a-for-tat confrontation with the East Palace family as usual, this time, was King Qin deliberately retreating again...... In this way, will he be able to live a more comfortable life in the future?
Well, he can only think of so much, and even has some faint expectations in his heart, if King Qin can be humble in everything, it is not impossible to rebuild the old friendship with him in the future, after all, we had a good friendship when we were in Jinyang.
He didn't want to think about it, if King Qin and the crown prince Li Jiancheng were brothers, could they still have a foothold for him?
Of course, he still understood Li Yuan's reluctance to edict Li Gang to return to the court, but he thought that there was still room for maneuver, so he continued to persuade each other, and many things were done in the past.
But over there, Li Shimin had already asked: "Then the father thinks who can be the heavy responsibility?" ”
Li Yuan stroked his beard and groaned, and only after a long time did he say, "Then let's discuss it again......"
With just this sentence, Li Shimin already knew in his heart, his father already had a candidate in his heart, and then sent it to Shangshu Province through the Chinese book, and the two of them would not be able to refute it again, which would be said, which was likely to cause their opposition......
He was like a roundworm in Li Yuan's stomach, he figured out Li Yuan's thoughts, and when Pei Lin was still thinking about how to persuade the emperor to get Li Wenji back.
Li Shimin is already thinking, no matter who comes to be the head of the household, it is always much stronger than Gao Lun's house, that person is stupid, and he has the power of the household department, but he is like a loyal dog in the East Palace, which is really an eyesore, and more importantly, this person is very disrespectful to him, the king of Qin, regardless of public or private.
In the intrigue, time flies quickly, and in a short period of time, a few words determine the fate of an important minister of the court.
This is the beauty of power, and at the same time it shows the cruelty of the power struggle, here, there is no warmth, only interests are in play, who is the beneficiary, who will become a victim, and there is only a thin line.
The father and son changed the topic almost at the same time, and the fast pace made Pei Lin a little unable to keep up, but this did not prevent him from participating in the topic, because he was also a participant in this power struggle, and he was deeply involved in it and couldn't extricate himself.
Maybe the previous topic was too heavy and his brain was a little too much, so Li Yuan inquired about his son's diet and daily life, and it was a halftime.
Li Shimin is young, saying that he is happy to play, and there is no pressure at all, and the answer is like a stream, and by the way, he can also ** Pei Lone, which makes Pei Lone a little embarrassed.
And Li Yuan seemed to find fun in it, so when Li Yuanji reappeared, he was surprised to find that Pei Xuanzhen, who had always paid attention to his appearance, had a slightly crooked hat, his beard was a little scattered, his body was a little short, and he seemed to be sweating a little too much......
Li Yuanji came to the front and listened to Li Shimin being there to live, "Back then, Pei Fuchu once said, people are like good sounds, the pitch is vigorous, the short voice is cowardly, only the righteous and peaceful can be called heroes, and now the father and the emperor are all virtuous, which is the pitch, which is the low, and which one is neutral and peaceful, can Pei Servant shoot it one by one, to open the people of the world?" ”
Li Yuanji listened there, and immediately swallowed his saliva, damn it, what is going to kill someone? Arbitrarily commenting on the courtiers, even if he is the emperor, he can't do it, let alone Pei Xuanzhen?
If he dares to open this mouth, a little bit of news leaks out, and he will not become a public enemy of the Manchu Dynasty, and it will be a matter of time before he dies without a place to be buried.
He glanced at Pei Lin with some sympathy, and felt a sense of sympathy, but if he wanted to interject and go in to relieve Pei Lian, it was a fantasy, his second brother had been staring at him for a few days.
Even if he hated it to death in his heart, he also knew that without his eldest brother in Beijing, it was what he should do to retreat from the Qin Palace.
How else to say that setbacks make people progress, after experiencing the previous danger, Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, completely understood, it is true that the prince can suppress the king of Qin, but it is the prince, if he, the king of Qi, is alone against the second brother, he will definitely be more auspicious and less auspicious.
Li Yuanji shrank his head and retreated to the side first, and poor Pei Lin gave his hands there again and again, with a look on his face that seemed to cry and laugh, and his head was little by little.
"I didn't expect His Highness to remember the minister's nonsense back then, and he couldn't do it really."
Li Shimin also wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, Pei Lin had added a lot of disgust to him in recent years, and he had also made Pei Lin disgraced a few times, and he didn't tell the winner or loser.
He Qin King Li Shimin has been able to stand tall with his military exploits, and Pei Lin can also take advantage of the battle for the throne and the emperor's belief in him to come back to life repeatedly, but the prince has picked up a lot of advantages in vain.
So as long as he touches Pei Lian, he will be like a knife, cutting and cutting, anyway, this person is extremely thick-skinned and has the attributes of a tumbler, Li Shimin really can't help him in a short time, it is better to be happy with his mouth first, and he should vent his personal anger a little.
Of course, as in many things, it is necessary to get the right measure, otherwise the mean words will give the impression of frivolity or frivolity, and his father will come out at the right time to support people.
And Li Shimin also knows very well that Pei Lin is raised by the emperor, and the communication with the East Palace is a matter of the emperor's acquiescence, so Pei Lin is not a henchman of the East Palace, and he is actually very similar to Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, and has his own small abacus.
But politics is like this, not only like-minded people can go to one place, unite inside and outside, and the stronger wins, this is the manifestation of political IQ.
In the past, Li Shimin was in short business days, so he moved forward bravely, and many people were afraid of his sharp edge, and he would inevitably be pressed by the prince who occupied a dominant position in the East Palace and had a good name.
When he returned to Beijing this time, Li Shimin learned from the pain and began to set out to lay a solid foundation, and he did not plan to leave Beijing in a short time, so people like Li Yuanji and Pei Lin were unlucky, and they were killed by Li Shimin.
For Li Yuanji, he wanted to be beaten to death with a stick, but he was constantly harassing Pei Lian, so he must dispel his arrogance, and for the women in the palace, he mainly scared him, such as Yin Arat, who had broken Du Ruhui's finger that day, and now he doesn't dare to go out easily, for fear of being caught, but he still didn't dodge, and his family stayed in a place like Wude Palace, and he was still killed by King Qin's missed arrow.
At this point, Li Shimin and Li Po have similarities, and the methods are full of tricks, which makes people unguardable, and if anyone is remembered by him, it is quite unfortunate.
At this time, Li Yuan finally felt a little "unbearable": "Okay, let's accompany me to drink a few glasses, the autumn is high and refreshing, Pei Jian has always had wonderful words, wouldn't it be good to make some good articles to accompany the wine." ”
Pei Lin was grateful at that time, and he didn't dare to say that he didn't dare to say anything, but when he thought of having to sit at the same table with King Qin, his head was as big as a fight, and he wanted to resign immediately, and it would be good to leave.
Li Shimin smiled, his eyes wandered around Li Yuanji, "I haven't been drinking with my father in the Wude Hall for two years, and I will drink more with my father today, and I wish my father and emperor prosperity and prosperity, and become the foundation of my Li family." ”
Li Yuan finally showed a smile on his face, this second son has a thousand things wrong, all kinds of bad, and many things he does are difficult to agree, but after all, it is his Li Yuan's son, and he also knows the hard-won truth of the foundation, and can rely on it in times of crisis.
Li Yuanji felt a little uncomfortable, this second brother was still as annoying as when he was a child, after so many years, he had never changed, but his words and deeds became more and more yin.
But he still interjected at the right time, and even showed a flattering smile to the guy who had hated and hated for many years, "The wine and food have been prepared, and I have asked my father to move, and my sons also want to pay more respects to my father and brother." ”
Li Yuan waved his sleeves, and a group of people surrounded him and left the shooting range and came in the direction of the inner hall.
Everything in the palace belonged to the emperor and the crown prince, and the others, whether it was Li Shimin, the king of Qin, or Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, were actually guests or subordinates here.
And the emperor's banquet and his subordinates also have a difference between public and private, drinking and having fun with concubines is one, eating with sons is also a category of private banquets, and then there are clans, relatives, and closer ministers.
It's no secret that Li Yuan likes to set up a private banquet and talk to people close to him, except for an old man like Pei Lian, the former Liu Wenjing was also Li Yuan's guest.
Now that Li Yuan is the emperor, there are more characters at the private banquet.
Like the Huangmen Shilang Wei Jie, the Zhongshu Sheren Yan Shigu, etc., are very favored by Li Yuan, they are either talented and knowledgeable, or magnificent, they all have their own outstanding points, and they have become guests at the emperor's banquet one after another.
Of course, Li Yuan will not make any friends now, no matter how outstanding he is, he can only be his courtier, and no matter how happy he is to talk to him, he can only be promised by him as a neighbor around him.
This is obviously a rather boring thing, and it is also one of the prices that the emperor must pay, like Li Po, and now His Royal Highness the King of Han will no longer have any righteous brothers by his side.
Because people who are in the supreme place, or who are climbing in this direction, do not need to be side-by-side to share the honor, the so-called high place is not cold, there are too few places there, it is not suitable for a second person, so it will be cold.
And the emperor's private banquet in the Wude Hall made it difficult for Li Yuan to relax......
(Thank you for your blessings in advance, but I still have to break the change, Ah Cao has tried his best, but I don't know how many days will be broken.) )
