Chapter 100 Search

Fang Xuanling coughed slightly, sat down, and said to Li Shen, "I don't know what His Majesty called the two ministers over?" ”

"Uncle Wei, you can sit too." Li Shen said to Wei Zheng, who was standing, watched him sit down, and said, "I can't help it, so the two of you came here to discuss the matter, and I hope you can give some advice." ”

"What?" Wei Zheng asked.

"It's a matter of my father's emperor, Li Ke has now appeared in Goryeo, and he has persuaded Gao Jianjun, the king of Goryeo, to send troops to besiege the Tang Dynasty." Li Shen said lightly.

Fang Xuanling paused slightly, looked at Li Shen in disbelief, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, you... What does this mean? ”

Wei Zheng sighed deeply and said, "Your Majesty, what do you need the old minister to do?" ”

Li Shen looked at the thick sadness in the eyes of the two, and sighed in a low voice, the monarch and the ministers have been in this position for decades, but they did not expect that they would enter such a situation today, and the sourness is estimated to be only able to understand by themselves, and said: "The impact of this matter must be minimized, my father has worked hard for the Tang Dynasty for decades, and I don't want him to be infamous for the mistakes he made for a while." ”

"It's easier said than done." Fang Xuanling said.

"I also know that it is not easy, so I hope the two of you can come up with a proper solution."

Wei Zheng frowned and thought for a while, shook his head, and said: "There is no way, as long as the war starts, the people will definitely know that this kind of thing cannot be concealed no matter what, unless the whereabouts of the Emperor Taishang are known now and he is stopped, there is no way." ”

"Is there really nothing you can do?" Li Shen asked.

Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, you yourself know that there is no way. ”

"I know, but I hope to find a way to solve this matter, there is nothing difficult in the world, as long as there are people who care."

"Unless you find the Emperor." Wei Zheng replied.

"Your Majesty, haven't you found the whereabouts of the Emperor Taishang yet?" Fang Xuanling asked.

"I have arranged for many people to search, but so far I have not been able to find their whereabouts, that is, some traces."

Fang Xuanling nodded slightly, and said, "Some traces? ”

Then he frowned and said, "Maybe there is really a way to stop this from happening." ”

"What's the solution?" Li Shen hurriedly asked.

"Since the traces of the Emperor Taishang have been discovered, he must be within a certain range, as long as you ask him out to have a good talk." Fang Xuanling said.

Li Shen rolled his eyes slightly and said, "Now that I don't even know where others are, how can I make an appointment?" ”

Wei Zheng looked at Li Shen with a smile and said: "Your Majesty, you are also in the bureau and do not see the current state clearly, in fact, it is very easy, publicize it in the place where the Emperor Taishang appears, the Emperor Taishang will definitely pay attention to any news with the Tang Dynasty at any time, and if the newspaper is not well published, he is also paying attention." ”

Li Shen smiled and nodded, indeed, now I basically know where the next road is, this is going to be a large-scale publicity, it is impossible for His Majesty Li Er not to know, as long as he knows, it will definitely be easy to do. And Li Shen also believed that His Majesty Li Er would not do such a self-destructive thing, he must have been confused for a moment to do such a thing.

"I'm also in a hurry, I didn't think of such a simple way, if I hadn't invited the two uncles over today, I'm afraid I would have to try my best to figure out how to solve this matter."

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Being able to share some of your sorrows for Your Majesty is also something that Lao Chen and others should do." ”

"The two of you are here today, so let's stay with me for lunch." Li Shen said with a smile, and then shouted: "Little Cuizi, let the imperial dining room send some wine and food." ”

After three rounds of drinking, Li Shen looked at Fang Xuanling's eyes with an inquiring look, but he didn't ask, smiled slightly, and said, "Uncle Fang has something to say directly, anyway, there are no outsiders here now, so there is no need to worry about anything." ”

Looking at the silent Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng smiled and said: "You old thing has become hypocritical now, what kind of person Your Majesty is, don't you know yet, if you have something to say, say it quickly." ”

Fang Xuanling glared at Wei Zheng and said, "It's just that I have some questions in my heart, and I want to ask Your Majesty." ”

"Say it."

"The old minister wants to ask Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Fang Xuanling stared at Li Shen and asked.

"What does Uncle Fang mean by this? I don't quite understand. ”

Fang Xuanling sighed and said, "The old minister means that he wants to ask, what do you want to do with all your majesty's policies on the Tang Dynasty?" ”

"I want the Tang Dynasty to last forever, I want the people to live a better life, no longer be displaced, live a life that is humiliated by others, and be able to live in peace on this land. I don't know if Uncle Fang is satisfied with this answer? ”

Fang Xuanling paused slightly, and said, "But according to the old minister's opinion, Your Majesty is weakening the power of the royal family, won't Your Majesty worry ......about it in the future?"

Li Shen shook his head, took a sip of the wine glass, and said with a smile: "Things are not as simple as you think, under a perfect legal system, everyone must abide by the constraints given to them by the law, in this case, even if you are a general with heavy troops, you can't shake the strictness of the law, how to say the perfect legal system, anyway, everything you do in the future must be done according to the law."

Although the royal rights have been reduced, but the benefits are obvious, the two uncles are also full of poetry and books, what is the reason for the replacement of dynasties, presumably the two can also know, the dictatorship is an absolute disaster for the people, although the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, but just talk, the emperor's power is too great, once there are mediocre people, it will be a disaster for the people, if you want to completely change, you can only reduce the rights of the royal and various elite classes.

This explanation is also too troublesome, in general, it is to improve every strata of the Tang Dynasty, including various welfare benefits and laws and other things in life, and then popularize education, so that the people can distinguish right from wrong by themselves, and use newspapers and other public opinion to carry out educational and ideological work, including using newspaper propaganda to punish, probably to make everything transparent, even if the future emperor ascends the throne including which powerful people do wrong, at least they will face the pressure of public opinion. ”

Li Shen looked at the two of them and said, "Roughly speaking, if you really let me say it one by one, it is estimated that I won't be able to finish it in a month or two, and I don't know much about many things, so now I can only slowly grope forward." ”
