“…… The minister will not review. ”

This sentence was like a hammer smashed into Li Chengqian's chest, and he looked at Zhang Xingcheng and the others with wide eyes.

I almost couldn't believe that at this time, these people dared to contradict themselves so directly.

Since the crossing, Li Chengqian has devoted all his energy to politics, and in order to get enough political capital, he personally went north to conquer Xue Yantuo.

He stabilized the position of the crown prince and could cut off dissidents in the court, even Li Shimin didn't do anything with him and let him control the government.

But looking at the ministers below today, he really felt that he had done all this in vain, and when he really touched the fundamental interests of these people, they didn't even save him any face.

"Isn't that a good way to govern the country?"

Li Chengqian asked indifferently, he was already ready to fight with these people in his heart, and it was a big deal to kill him and bleed.

"That is, Your Majesty ordered His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to supervise the country and assist you, how can you not explain the pros and cons in detail for His Royal Highness the Prince, and you can't do it?" Li Jing, who had a white beard, stood up and pointed at Zhang Xingcheng and the others and reprimanded loudly.

He has made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty and is a veteran prime minister, although he has no real post now, but according to the rules set by Li Shimin, the prime minister who has stepped down from his post in the previous dynasty must be ranked in front of the current prime minister, so today in the hall except for Li Chengqian and Li Jing have the highest seat.

Whether it is in terms of seniority or status, he is qualified to come forward to reprimand these big ministers, but although Li Jing's words are reprimanding, the meaning is to make peace with the mud.

said that these ministers should first tell Li Chengqian why he couldn't do this, instead of directly pushing back.

"Minister-" When Yu Suiliang heard this, he immediately realized that something was wrong, but he didn't know what to say for a while.

Zhang Xingcheng did not change his face and said: "Li Zhengong once said: dangerous words and deeds. His Royal Highness the Prince, the courtier, is naturally outspoken. ”

Li Zhengong is the young master of the crown prince Li Gang, and he was honored after the death of Zhenguan for five years.

"Li Zhengong once praised Jia Yi, why didn't the lonely king find out that you Zhang Xingcheng is better than Jia Yi?" Li Chengqian's words were full of mockery.

Li Shimin once complained to Li Gang that the minister's advice was alarmist, which made it difficult for the lord to accept, and Li Gang told Li Shimin that the minister's advice should be alarmist in order to attract the attention of the monarch.

Li Gang took Jia Yi of the former Han Dynasty as an example, saying that Jia Yi's "Public Security Policy" to Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty began with "one can be one who weeps bitterly, two who can be runny, and six who can be long-rested. ……

Li Shimin believed that it was true, and for a period of time, no matter how excessive the minister's advice was, he tolerated it and did not condemn it.

In fact, throughout the ancient and modern times, there are many people who are as alarmist as Jia Yi and even surpass Jia Yi, but there are probably only one or two things that can be compared with Jia Yi in terms of content, and Zhang Xingcheng's talent must not be compared with Jia Yi.

Zhang Xingcheng said without changing his face when he heard this: "Although the minister is not as talented as Jia Yi, Du Shangshu's theory really cannot be regarded as clever, so the obtuseness of the minister can also distinguish the advantages and disadvantages."

If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks that the ministers of the palace are incompetent, he can order the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty to discuss this matter. ”

"No!" Yu Suiliang hurriedly said in a loud voice, paused for a moment and continued: "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has summoned the ministers and others to discuss this matter, it is natural that the ministers will be trusted. Since Zhang Shizhong thought it was inappropriate, why did he let the Manchu ministers discuss it?

The discussion of things is agitated by the government and the opposition, but it seems that we courtiers are incompetent."

"His Royal Highness the Prince, since it is impossible for the ministers to discuss Du Shangshu's proposal, it is better to hand it over to Du Shangshu for a detailed discussion, come up with a more reasonable note, and hand it over to the ministers for discussion." Xu Jingzong stood up to relieve Li Chengqian.

Du Zhenglun, who had been worried, hurriedly walked out when he heard the words and said: "It's the minister's inconsiderate thinking, everything is the minister's sin, the minister shouldn't tell His Royal Highness the prince about these shadowless things, and if His Royal Highness the prince listens to it, the minister is willing to resign from the post of secretary of the ministry." ”

Li Chengqian felt that his face was as hot as fire, Xu Jingzong was looking for himself to go under the stairs, and Du Zhenglun was ready to be a scapegoat.

This made Li Chengqian feel that he was a failure, and Zhang Xingcheng and others were even more disappointed.

Li Chengqian looked at the ministers in the palace, his eyes were about to erupt like fire, his chest rose and fell violently, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Seeking his own government in his position is what the officials should do.

Besides, who is not lost?

If there is a slight mistake, he will be dismissed from office, and there will be no one to do things in the world!

That's all for today, let's step down. ”

After that, Li Chengqian stood up and left, because he was walking too quickly and forgot to take his crutches, he almost fell down when he stepped on the air.

Liu Kui's face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly helped Li Chengqian to walk out from behind.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." The ministers saluted.

After Li Chengqian left the Chongjiao Hall, the ministers raised their heads and walked out with complicated expressions.

The more Li Chengqian returned to the Purple Light Palace, the more angry he became, and immediately sent someone to summon Qiu Shenji, he wanted to find out what Zhang Xingcheng and the others were going to do.

----------------------

"Looking at His Royal Highness the Prince's momentum today, this matter is not over yet?" Liu Dewei walked beside Zhang Xingcheng and whispered.

"Ahh

Zhang Xingcheng stopped when he heard this, and sighed with a sad face: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been so smooth in the past two years, he actually wants to move the official system of my Tang Dynasty, even if we don't speak today, let him issue an edict, the people of the world will inevitably be dissatisfied, and when the time comes, it may be a big mess in the world." ”

Liu Dewei nodded approvingly when he heard this, and still said uneasily: "It is better to inform Your Majesty of this matter as soon as possible, so that Your Majesty will make a decision to avoid long nights and dreams." ”

Zhang Xingcheng nodded, and walked out first.

These two people never mentioned that if they offended Li Chengqian today, they might be retaliated against by Li Chengqian, nor did they mention that Suiliang and other ministers of the East Palace might turn against him, which shows that they really did not contradict Li Chengqian only for their own selfishness.

----------------------- Purple Light Palace, under the window in the east room.

The people sent out to pass on the people all went out, and there was no reply for a while, and Li Chengqian was half-lying on the Luohan bed in the east room, staring at the window with his eyes open.

Today really let him see the style of the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, a mediocre Zhang Xingcheng dared to be the head of the palace, and he didn't even turn a corner to save him face.

The more Li Chengqian thought about it, the angrier he became, and he couldn't wait to find a reason to send Zhang Xingcheng to Annan.

Li Chengqian thought about his thoughts for a long time, and suddenly heard a voice outside.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is inside?"

Li Chengqian looked up when he heard the sound, and saw that it was the crown princess who was standing at the entrance of the main hall and looking in with concern, and his heart warmed, so he said lightly: "Come in!" ”

Su Shi walked into the east room when he heard the sound, and saw Li Chengqian lying with a sad expression, his brows slightly furrowed, so he smiled and sat down.

Li Chengqian saw everything in his eyes, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The lonely king is worried about the affairs of the court, you don't have to worry." ”

Su's eyes turned red, and he grabbed Li Chengqian's hand with both hands, wrapped it in the palm of his hand and rubbed it incessantly.

"The concubine knows that there is nothing in the world that can be difficult to hold His Royal Highness the Prince, but I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was angry in front of him, so-so come and take a look, I just hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will put the world first, and don't be angry......"

Although the Su family is the crown princess, because Li Shimin does not like women to interfere in politics, the Su family follows the example of the eldest grandson and never asks about political affairs.

At this time, seeing Li Chengqian's discomfort, he wanted to say 'bear it together', but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, but he just grabbed Li Chengqian's hand tightly and didn't let go.

Li Chengqian looked at Su Shi with pity in his eyes, raised his other hand and grabbed Su Shi's hand and said, "You and I are husband and wife, and there is nothing that cannot be asked, but this matter is not clear to the Lone King for ......a while." ”

Su Shi Wen leaned closer to Li Chengqian and said, "As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is good, the concubines are fine." ”

Li Chengqian took the Su family in his arms, looked at the preface with a firm gaze, and said, "Don't worry, they can't defeat the lonely king." ”
