Wei Zheng was scolded again, a mouthful of old blood was choked back, and he couldn't bear to squirt it out, and finally asked the question he was most concerned about: "You mean, after the restructuring, the existing fields of the gate valve family can still be retained?" ”

Li Mu laughed out loud and said, "Old Wei, you finally asked what you wanted to ask the most, and it was really difficult for you." ”

Li Mu faced everyone and said loudly: "The restructuring is for the prosperity of the country, and there must be someone to plant the land, and whoever plants it depends on whether it is beneficial to the country." Those who are united in their majesty may be able to plant more land than before. Those who are willing to support the restructuring and pay taxes may keep the existing ones, but if they are willing to oppose His Majesty and secretly fight against them, heh, weigh them yourself. ”

"In short, Your Majesty has made up his mind, that is, six words, those who go along will prosper, and those who go against will die! There is no bargaining, only from or not from. After Li Mu finished speaking, perhaps he felt that he was too domineering, turned his head to Li Shimin, and said, "Your Majesty, that's what you mean, right?" ”

Li Shimin cleared his throat and said: "That's right, I have made up my mind, starting tomorrow, the court will no longer discuss whether the new policy is or not, only how to implement the new policy!" Zhongshu Province, draft an edict, inform the world! Retreat! ”

"Retreat!" Gonggong Gao shouted in his voice, and all the officials saluted together, Wei Zheng glanced at Li Mu deeply, sighed and turned around and left with the hundred officials.

Li Mu also walked out with the hundred officials, and Li Shimin called out to him. When everyone went out, Li Shimin motioned to Gonggong Gao to close the door of the palace, and said angrily: "How can your kid's temper be uncertain, I still think that you can slowly figure it out, but it's good, just light the fire, don't care!" Do you know that this is the policy of the country, how can you make a decision in a few words? ”

Li Mu grinned and said, "Your Majesty, what the minister said is well documented. ”

"Evidence?" Li Shimin squinted at him and said, "You went to investigate?" ”

"If there is something to do, the disciple will obey his work, otherwise what will the apprentice do? Isn't there an eldest grandson Chong, he brought someone to be in charge of this matter. Li Mu said with a shy face: "Your Majesty, this is going to talk about the way of education for the ministers, you look at the way of the eldest grandson Chong before, that life is a waste, under the teaching of the minister, now he is also a good talent." ”

"What have you taught?" Li Shimin said angrily: "You don't know what's going on with your academy?" Recruit students, charge such expensive tuition, work hard for you all day long, let people learn carpenters and bricklayers to build houses, this is your way of education? ”

"Your Majesty, this is a mistake!" Li Mu said seriously: "The way of education of ministers is different from that of Lao Kong. The minister pays attention to words and deeds, yesterday the eldest grandson Chong went to court for the minister, didn't Your Majesty see a little? Temperamental? ”

"Heh, I can see a little," Li Shimin sneered, and said, "Eldest Sun Chong is like you now, and there is no one in his eyes." I heard the little eunuch say that in Zhongshu Province, he actually made a lot of nonsense, saying that the rules of your free sect are not polite, the good disciples you taught, are there any etiquette? ”

"Your Majesty, don't bully people!"

"Whoever bullied you, it's you who have no manners!"

Li Mu spread his hands and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that you don't see that these people in the court, when he is reasonable, he reasoned with you, and when he was unreasonable, he bullied others, either by fighting for seniority, or by starting to talk about seniority." It's the New Year, the minister is eighteen this year, and the eldest grandson Chong is two years older than me, twenty this year. When it comes to seniority and seniority, how do we compare? But things have to be done, so I told my disciples that when doing the right thing, only reason, not seniority and seniority, no matter which one is, as long as you can't make sense, then you will have no face! Your Majesty, what's wrong? ”

"Hmm......" Li Shimin nodded and said, "It's also a bit reasonable, after all, you have to do something!" Okay, don't talk about this, I have three things to keep you, the first thing is that I entrust you and Wei Zheng with the matter of restructuring. I can also see that Wei Zheng can't say anything about you, but you can't bully people too much, everything still has to be discussed. Although Wei Zheng is speaking for the gate valve, he is not exactly for the gate valve, I know him, he is also for the word stability, you need to know the truth of moderation. And then there is the matter of Li Ji and Ashina Simo, it has been delayed for a long time, and there should be a decision, what is the specific charter, you first take out a rough idea, let them go back, and if they have been away for a long time, they may have changed. The third thing......"

Li Shimin pondered for a while, and there seemed to be some expression in his eyes that did not belong to the emperor, but to his father: "Cheng Qian has suffered a lot of grievances as a city manager, and I see it in my eyes, and I feel a little unbearable." Why don't you go and persuade him, and go back to the palace soon. ”

"Your Majesty." Li Mu said: "The first two things, the minister will do well for His Majesty, but the last thing, please forgive the minister for not being able to do anything." The crown prince, the prince of the country. If you are a minister, if you are not the prince's teacher, you should not teach the prince how to behave, which violates the duty of a minister. It is His Majesty's duty to teach the Prince, and His Majesty should communicate with the Prince. Besides, the minister doesn't think that it is a bad thing for the prince to be wronged in the market, if the prince can understand more about the sufferings of the people, encounter more things, and understand some flexibility, when he inherits the throne, he will be more mature, and I believe this is what His Majesty wants to see. ”

"Alas," Li Shimin sighed and said, "That's what I said, but in my heart...... You see, it's also my sister-in-law, Qingque just-" Suddenly Li Shimin was stuck, he looked at Li Mu, and said: "Li Mu, I suddenly remembered, I haven't seen Qingque for half a month, what is he doing, do you know?" ”

"Uh......" Li Mu smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know." ”

"Lie!" Li Shimin frowned and said, "You clearly know, I ordered you to say it, say it quickly!" ”

Li Mu clicked his lips, didn't dare to look at Li Shimin's eyes, and said, "Your Majesty, Qingque is not in Chang'an City now. ”

"What?" Li Shimin slapped the table and shouted, "Gao Gan! Get in! ”

Gonggong Gao hurriedly climbed into the hall, looked at Li Shimin's expression was wrong, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?" ”

"I ask you, where is the green sparrow?"

"King Yue, he ......" Gao Gonggong's face changed several times, and he also lowered his head, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, in fact, this matter is actually the King of Yue who didn't let the old slave say, just in time for the accident a few days ago, King Yue, he followed the army of General Li Daozong, go, go to ......"

"What are you doing?"

"He said he wanted to see the world."

"See the world," Li Shimin laughed angrily, he looked at Li Mu and gritted his teeth: "Li Mu, this is your way of education again, right?" My two sisters-in-law have driven you crazy, and I want to cut you! ”

"Your Majesty, so the minister has to cry out for injustice! The minister said, the minister never asked for it, but he just set an example! King Yue was curious about why the family of gate lords was against the court, he wanted to know what they wanted, and why the people were far away from the court because of the door lords, and he wanted to find the answer in person. This is a good thing, the minister can't stop the students' curiosity! ”
