"Your Royal Highness, the minister heard that almost all of the Wei royal party in the court today is crusading against the crown prince?"

Li Zhi nodded: "Yes, the two brothers are not in harmony, this is a well-known thing, I don't want to get involved in the two brothers competing for favor, it's too dangerous." ”

Chen Fei corrected Li Zhi's words. "Your Highness, the minister didn't let you get involved in the competition between the two princes, but wanted to ask His Highness to be a peacemaker in the future struggle."

"Peacemaker? What do you mean? Li Zhi was puzzled.

Chen Fei cleared his throat and explained for him. "The so-called peacemaker is when two people persuade both parties to ...... when they fight"

"I'm not asking you what you mean by being a peacemaker, but why do you want me to be a peacemaker, thankless things are boring." Li Zhi is a smart person, so naturally he will not be fooled by Chen Fei's stupid words to be a peacemaker.

On the contrary, he knew that it was a thankless job, so he approached it with caution.

The cautious attitude made Chen Fei appreciate, and those who do great things must be careful, and every step they take must be cautious. If Chen Fei came over and mentioned it today, Li Zhi agreed without saying a word, which made people feel uneasy.

"Your Highness, don't worry, give Your Highness an analogy. If two children are fighting, one child is persuaded to fight, and the adults rush to the scene, which child will be most admired? ”

Li Zhi thought for a moment and said, "The kid who persuaded you? ”

"Yes!" Chen Fei slapped his thigh, leaned closer and said, "Your Highness, think about it again, the prince has done such a thing, and so many courtiers in the court have criticized the prince, who is the most uncomfortable?" ”

"It's the prince, right? ... Wrong! It's the Father! In any case, the most hurt and saddest thing in the whole thing must be the father! Li Zhi seems to have realized the Tao, like an initiation, and suddenly awakened.

"So you asked me to be a peacemaker, in fact, you want me to share my father's worries?"

"Yes!" Chen Fei smiled, and his smile revealed an unpredictable taste. "Your Highness thinks about it carefully, this is not just for Your Majesty's worries."

Li Zhi lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly startled, raised his head and looked at Chen Fei, his face was shocked, and his tone trembled slightly. "You... You mean... Nope! No, you can't! I..."

"Your Highness!" Chen Fei grabbed Li Zhi's hand and pressed his hand on the table. "Your Highness! If you think about it carefully, among His Majesty's sons-in-law, there are only the three of them, the crown prince Wei and you. Snipe and clam fight, who is most likely to benefit? ”

Li Zhi was suddenly stunned, looked at Chen Fei with a dull gaze, and finally pointed at himself uncertainly. "Me?"

"So Your Highness, you have to get ready! If the crown prince and the king of Wei compete with each other to the point where water and fire are incompatible, it will be His Highness's chance! ”

"But... But..."Li Zhi obviously never thought about this, he was hit a lot today, and tears of anxiety were about to come out.

"Nothing! Your Highness, you just need to remember that you don't need to fight with your brothers, what you have to do is to be a peacemaker in front of Your Majesty when your brothers are fighting for your life, whether it is persuasion or intercession, in short, you have to let Your Majesty know that you have the qualities of a benevolent monarch!

And you don't have to go to the DPRK and China to win over forces and show your ambitions. All you have to do is you have no ambition. In this way, everyone will relax their attention to you, and you will be most likely to reach the sky in one step! ”

"It's... This..."Suddenly asked Li Zhi to compete for the position of prince, Li Zhi still didn't accept it, he had a tendency to collapse.

Chen Fei sighed, Xiao Zhengtai was still too young to see the world, and he was scared like this if he mentioned something big.

"Your Highness, don't worry, the minister doesn't have to ask His Highness to compete for the position of the prince, if His Royal Highness does what the minister says, even if the position of the prince is in the hands of your two brothers in the future, then you have begged for them so many times, I think they will not regard you as a thorn in the side, Your Highness can be regarded as having no worries, this move can be attacked, retreated can be defended, why not?"

"I... I'm still..."Li Zhi shook his head, I'm afraid he never thought of becoming a prince in his heart, so the things Chen Fei said to him today had a very big impact on him, and he couldn't slow down all of a sudden.

"Your Highness, take 10,000 steps back and say, your brothers are fighting, as the son of His Majesty, the younger brother of your brothers, is it wrong to persuade you to intercede? The minister didn't let you do anything else, just like that, you can't do it? ”

"I... I... OK! Li Zhi suddenly gritted his teeth and made up his mind, but there was an irrepressible ambition flashing in his eyes.

Chen Fei smiled, let go of Li Zhi's hand, saw Li Zhi's resolute expression, and saw a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon, trying to stir its wings and flutter in the sun.

"Your Highness, rest assured, you only need to do what the minister just said, enrich your knowledge and connotation, and you will have something to do in the future!"

Li Zhi didn't speak, just nodded.

The two of them sat like this for a while, and Li Zhi suddenly asked, "Brother Chen Fei, did you come here today to tell me these things?" ”

"What could be more important than that?" Chen Fei winked at Li Zhi and smiled.

Li Zhi also smiled, got up and flew to Chen: "Today's grace, you should keep it in mind." ”

Chen Fei hurriedly helped Li Zhi up. "Your Highness, you are a king, I am a minister, and you must not perform this great gift. Regarding the title, don't call me Brother Chen when you are in office, it's more appropriate to call me Uncle Chen or Young Eunuch Chen, we can still call me that in private. ”

"Oh." Li Zhi nodded, and suddenly shouted, "Young Eunuch Chen? ”

What's going on with this sudden seriousness?

"The minister is here!"

Li Zhi tried to hold back a smile: "I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear?" ”

Why is this rhetorical routine so familiar? Of course, Chen Fei unswervingly chose ...... "Good news." ”

Li Zhi looked at Chen Fei and finally laughed, "I want to congratulate Young Eunuch Chen, who will soon be appointed by my father as the deposed ambassador of Jiannan Province, inspect Jiannan Province on behalf of the imperial court, and hold the power of supervising hundreds of officials in his hands, congratulations!" ”

Chen Fei smiled, arched his hand and said politely: "Hehehe, politely, Your Majesty is so appointed, so that the ministers are flattered....... Slow... Wait! What did you just say, Your Highness?! ”

After reacting, Chen Fei almost didn't jump up from his position, pointed at himself and said in surprise: "What did you just say?" Ambassador of Jiannan Province? I? ”

Li Zhi nodded in affirmation with a smile.

Chen Fei felt a little dizzy, a big piece of pie smashed on his head, not because he was about to go crazy with happiness, but because he was directly smashed into a dish.

During this time, he also studied some of the official systems of the Tang Dynasty, and the position of ambassador of Jiannan Province was equivalent to the more popular minister of the late Ming Dynasty, and it was an official position to inspect the local area on behalf of the emperor.

It can be said that at the local level, he represents the emperor, and the power is not ordinarily large.

Such an important position... Given it to him? This TM is too child's play, isn't it? And you don't even ask my opinion, do you? This is even more unreliable than letting Li Zhi fight for the throne now!

There is still work to be done at hand, so let's do three more today
