Chapter 12: Li Shimin's decision
"Since none of you have taken the initiative to speak, then I will have to ask you one by one." Li Shimin glanced at the few people in front of him, and secretly cursed a group of old foxes in his heart.
The eldest grandson Wuji, as the prime minister and Li Shimin's brother-in-law, saw that Li Shimin had said everything to this point, and thought to himself that it would be impossible to say it, others could hide, but he couldn't hide. So he took the initiative to speak: "Back to the saint, the minister has something to say, and the minister thinks that this poem is very well written, very heroic and atmospheric, which makes people feel agitated and heroic when they read it." The person who wrote the lyrics is ambitious, and it can be seen from the very bold description in the words that this is a person with a strong ambition and a proud heart. If we want to be such an ideal and vengeful reader, we should encourage it. I was built at the beginning of the dynasty, and all kinds of waste were waiting to be revived, and talents were even more shortcoming, so Weichen thought that it was better to turn big things into small things and small things, so as to avoid the death penalty of the person who wrote the lyrics, and let him make meritorious contributions to the country. ”
After he saw this poem, the first thing he thought of was the talent and ability of the person who wrote the lyrics, and what he thought of was how to recruit useful talents for the imperial court.
Some people take the lead, and others are not afraid that they will be shot in the head by Li Shimin.
"Qi Qi Sage, Chen Wei Zheng agrees with Lord Fang's proposal."
Wei Zheng is an anxious person, and he also admires the author who wrote this poem very much, so he agrees with Fang Xuanling's proposal very much.
Some people support it, and some people oppose it, which is the consistent norm in the court.
Seeing that the eldest grandson Wuji and Wei Zheng were both optimistic about this matter, Xu Maogong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, spoke, "What the two adults said makes sense, but the person who wrote this poem is indeed too bold and has the suspicion of despising the emperor's authority. This is harmful to the entire Datang. ”
Xu Maogong's words are also very reasonable, he is not deliberately targeting anyone, he is just clarifying the other side of the impact of this matter.
The other ministers felt that it made sense when they heard what they said, and they didn't know for a moment that they should support which side.
Li Shimin sat on it, drinking tea while watching the ministers below arguing. He didn't intervene, as if he was out of the matter.
"I think the person who wrote the lyrics should be released, so that on the one hand, it shows that the court and the emperor attach importance to talents, and on the other hand, it also shows the emperor's generosity and benevolence."
This was the speech of the minister on the side who supported the proposal of Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng.
"I think we should punish them severely, kill them to set an example, I have a foundation that is not stable, if I don't care about this kind of people who have the intention of rebelling, then more people will follow suit in the future."
This was the claim of the ministers who supported Xu Maogong's side.
"...... should be pardoned"
"...... should be punished severely"
The two sides argued, so they turned their heads to Li Shimin for comment.
"Your Majesty, the ministers have different opinions, and this matter involves the emperor, and the ministers think that it is better for the emperor to decide personally."
Speaking of this, everyone's opinions seemed to be immediately unified, and they said in unison.
Li Shimin was not surprised, and when he heard the ministers tell the pros and cons of this matter, he quickly made a decision in his heart.
"Since you Aiqing are at odds and have different opinions, then this matter will be decided by me personally. Since the writing of this lyric is a little less coquettish, it is better to invite him to Luoyang, and then you Aiqing and I will test him together to see if he has real talent and learning, or if he can only brag. ”
Li Shimin put down the teacup in his hand and told everyone what he thought.
Everyone saw that Li Shimin had made a decision, and it was very reasonable, so they said: "My emperor is sage, wise and martial, broad-minded, thoughtful, and thoughtful. ”
Li Shimin's idea, everyone is not surprised, they actually thought of it just now, but they didn't say it, just waited for Li Shimin to say it himself.
When the courtiers must grasp the scale of speech, they can't finish all the words, otherwise the emperor will not like them if he has nothing to say.
As the elite of the court, they are all old foxes, how could they not think of the method proposed by Li Shimin?
Everyone was satisfied with this result, the ministers made the emperor happy, and the emperor was also satisfied with the ministers. It can be said that everyone is happy.
The rest depends on the performance of Song Zhiyuan and others after they arrive in Luoyang.
……
It is impossible for Wang Dazhui to know about the affairs in the palace of Chang'an City.
He was just waiting for the so-called timing that the system had given him.
As the days passed, Li Song's case had been tried, and this guy finally pleaded guilty in the face of ironclad evidence, and was sentenced to five years in prison. deprived him of his fame.
After investigation, Li Song did forcibly occupy Li Ergou's wife, and it is worth mentioning that there is a very coincidental thing, that is, Li Ergou originally wanted to take revenge on Li Song, so he had been following him for several days, and it happened that yesterday he saw the conspiracy of him and his men - cutting out the tongue of the cow. Therefore, this case was also solved by the way.
Li Song, this guy has really done too many bad things, and he can't even look at it.
After Wang Dazhui learned the news, he was very happy, and felt that the person who framed his teacher Song Zhiyuan had also been punished.
He has been staying at home for the past few days, not crying or making trouble, which makes Wang Fugui and Zhang Cuihua very worried, thinking that their son is depressed after losing his teacher.
Of course, their era is not called depression, it is called suffocation. Since his son is about to be stupid, he naturally can't be locked up anymore, let him go out to play, relax, and maybe return to normal. Wang Fugui and his wife thought to themselves.
So, on this day, Zhang Cuihua told Wang Dazhui that he could be released from house arrest, "Son, my mother knows that you value love and righteousness, and if something happened to the teacher, you feel uncomfortable." But one must learn to look forward, not to look at the past. ”
"Mother, my son is fine!" Wang Dazhui was a little baffled by his mother.
"Don't be tough, you are my mother's son, my mother still doesn't know what you think in your heart?" No matter how Wang Dazhui explained, Zhang Cuihua didn't believe what he was saying now at all.
"......" Wang Dazhui was speechless by his mother Zhang Cuihua.
"My mother inquired with someone, and your husband is now being detained in the county jail, and he has not been beaten and punished. If you really feel uncomfortable, let Fan Fan accompany you out for a walk. ”
I don't know where this Cuihua saw that her son was depressed, and inquired that depressed people can't be closed, so I have the idea today.
Wang Dazhui thought to himself, he hasn't been out for the past few days, and he is indeed a little bored, since his mother let him go out for a walk, then he will go out for a walk, and the family in the province is worried.
So, Wang Dazhui went out accompanied by Fan Fan.
It seems that the imprisonment of Li Song, Song Zhiyuan and others has no impact on the ordinary people on the street, and at most it has become their after-dinner conversation.
Wang Dazhui was walking, lamenting his personal insignificance, but was blocked by a group of children.
