CHAPTER 60 THE SERMON
Chapter 60 Lectures
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say." Qin Huaiyu stood up and said.
"Say." Li Shen replied.
"There are still ...... in the army"
"Qin Huaiyu." Li Shen interrupted him coldly, looked at him, and continued, "Do you still know that there is something to deal with in the army?" As the supreme general of a land, don't you know what your actions represent? ”
"Your Majesty." Qin Huaiyu shouted with a flushed face.
"I handed over the border pass to you, Qin Huaiyu, tell me what you have done since you arrived at the border pass? Relying on your friendship with me, you are acting recklessly, and you can leave whenever you want in the army, have you ever thought about how deeply your behavior will affect the whole army? Others didn't say anything in front of you, you go and ask the more than 200,000 soldiers in the entire Tang Dynasty, who doesn't know the name of your Qin Huaiyu? Any idea why your name is known? Not your merits, but the shame that you are the whole new army. Li Shen said coldly.
"Your Majesty......"
"There is no need to say anything else, I have arranged for someone to replace your position in the army, and now your behavior is not suitable for commanding an army at all, I was too vain at the beginning, I thought that you had followed Su Dingfang's side for many years, and you should be able to support an army, but you still looked away." Li Shen interrupted Qin Huaiyu's words and said lightly.
Looking at the many meritorious children at the scene, he continued: "Maybe in your eyes, some of your mistakes are not worth mentioning at all, and for me, those mistakes of yours are nothing, no matter how you say these are harmless things, and you have not bullied the people under your control, but in the case of the continuous accumulation of small mistakes, you will become more and more presumptuous in the future, and even touch the law with your own actions in the end." I have said that no one should violate the laws of the empire, even me, the law is the foundation of the empire, and there is no rule without rules. ”
After a pause, he continued: "You and others are all meritorious juniors, basically everyone grows up with me, and I don't want to see that one day in the future, I will punish you with the law in my hand." Problems can be changed, as long as you have the perseverance, don't think that you have a good relationship with me, many of them are my sisters-in-law, but I can tell you, don't talk to me about these family ties and other messy things in front of the law. ”
"Brother Huang, the younger brother knows that he is wrong, and the younger brother decided to change it after returning home." Li Ke said with a face full of shame.
"Go back?" Li Shen smiled for a moment, and then said: "Gather you together, it's not that I will be fine if I preach to you, it is estimated that I have just left on the front foot, and you will forget about it on the back foot, this kind of thing is not the first time I have to say, but now?" Look at what you are doing in various places, including the women who were transported from the Wa Kingdom by the King of Jiang, and their hands are really stretched out, and they dare to meddle in the affairs of the army? I want to ask, if I am not the kind of person who talks about brotherhood, what kind of punishment will you be punished in a hurry? ”
There was silence at the scene, everyone lowered their heads, this kind of consequence is not something they can bear at all, especially now that the army is being reformed, the number of troops is the smallest since ancient times, and conspiring with the generals in the army to do something else is not something that the emperor can tolerate at all.
"Now that your big mistake has not been made, I am idle anyway, so I have to restrain you in person, whether you can go out from under my eyes and go to various places to serve as officials, it depends on your own performance, ugly said in front, if you don't pass this level, you will live in Chang'an City to provide for my old age, and I will not lose any of your monthly salary."
Li Shen turned his head and shouted outside the door, "Big Bear come in." ”
Dressed in a military uniform and wearing a dark green military hat, Long Xing strode in, without the slightest expression on his face, and gave a military salute to Li Shen, saying, "Here." ”
"These people are temporarily handed over to you to arrange training." Li Shen said.
"No." Da Xiong answered, turned around, smiled at everyone, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please go with the general!" ”
The crowd began to stand up one after another, and walked out of the hall in an orderly manner.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry that you have failed your teachings and expectations." Qin Huaiyu walked up to Li Shen, bowed, turned around and walked out the door.
Li Shen looked at Qin Huaiyu's depressed appearance, and shook his head slightly, a little puzzled how a good person, whether in his previous life or when he came back, was a person who was strict with himself, how could he change so quickly.
"Why are you still following? Do you want to stay here until I invite you to dinner? Li Shen looked at the brothers in front of him and said coldly.
"Brother Huang, that... The younger brother is just doing business, and he has not made any mistakes, so the younger brother will not need it! Besides, I don't know when my brother will come out when I go in, who will take care of my brother's business? Li Ke said with some embarrassment.
Li Shen shook his head and said, "Third brother, there are some things that I don't need to say, you should understand, why I let you come back, and don't you know what is in it?" Relying on your status as a prince, who do you want to hide from what you do in various places? Don't tell me that those things are all said by the people in your mansion, and you don't know anything about it? Doing business is about integrity, not forcible seizure, and fairness and justice. ”
Li Ke smiled awkwardly when he heard this, nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you for teaching the imperial brother, but can you go back tomorrow and arrange the affairs at home, and I will report to General Da Xiong early tomorrow morning." ”
"Go ahead!"
"Huh!!"
Li Zhi looked at Li Shen with a smile and said, "Brother Huang, the younger brother doesn't need it, the younger brother is in the mansion all day long, rarely goes out, and has never caused trouble......"
With less experience, people still maintain a pure heart, Li Shen looked at Li Zhi in front of him, smiled, and said: "I called you over, just to let you enter the army to have a good exercise, the army is a very training place, your character is too weak, and it is not a way to stay at home all day, it is also a good choice to go inside and go around, just say to the big bear when you want to come out." ”
Li Zhi nodded and said, "Brother Huang, the younger brother will go, if you can't stand it, don't blame the younger brother." ”
"Go ahead!"
The hall of more than 100 people walked cleanly, Li Shen stood up, stretched his waist, took a few sips of water from his teacup, and smiled slightly.
