Chapter 1325: Father and Son's Night Talk (Part II)
"Father, if there is anything, just tell me!" At this time, Li Zhi found that his father's expression was a little solemn, as if he was preoccupied, which made him stand up straight again.
I saw Li Shimin hesitate again at this time, and finally spoke: "Pheasant slave, when I was in Zhaoling two days ago, your husband and your uncle persuaded my father to pay attention to his body, after all, my health has not been very good in the past two years, and I have to work hard for government affairs every day, which is very unfavorable for recuperation, I have also thought about it carefully in the past two days, and I think that what they said is also reasonable, and you are also an adult, it is time to take on the burden of Datang, so I decided to hand over part of the government affairs to you!" ”
"Huh? Isn't Erchen usually responsible for part of government affairs? Li Zhi was stunned when he heard Li Shimin's words.
"It's different, although you took on part of the government affairs before, but the final result of the handling still needs to be checked for your father for you, even if I am sick, you also need Wuji and them to help you deal with it, but now I have decided to completely hand over the decision to handle government affairs to you, and some important government affairs will be added, so the burden on your body will become heavier in the future!" Li Shimin said with a kind face at this time, although Li Zhi also handled some government affairs in the past, the final power was still in his hands, but now he wants to hand over part of the power in his hands to Li Zhi.
Li Zhi is no longer a child, and he immediately understood when he heard his father's words, but he said a little unconfidently at this time: "Father, is your decision too early, son...... Erchen wasn't ready yet. ”
"What are you not prepared for, haven't you been helping me deal with government affairs in the past few years, although I have always said that you still need to learn, but in fact, I am very satisfied with the government affairs you handle, especially during this period of time, the government affairs you handle have rarely been changed, which shows that you have the ability to deal with some things alone." At this time, Li Shimin opened his mouth again to encourage.
"But ......"
Li Zhi originally wanted to say something more, but at this time he was interrupted by Li Shimin: "Okay, it's decided, wait for tomorrow I will discuss with your uncle and them, and completely hand over some government affairs to you to deal with, in addition, my father is older, and his energy is not as good as before, so some things can no longer be done by himself, but as an emperor, I don't need to deal with everything by myself, and I don't do this very well, you have to learn to use people in the future, and hand over some power to the people below, It would be easier this way, instead of exhausting my body like I did. ”
Hearing that his father even said the reason for his poor health, Li Zhi couldn't refuse anymore, so he finally nodded and said: "Okay, since my father trusts my son, I'll give it a try, but my father, don't give me too important things, I'm worried that I will not handle it well, and it will only cause trouble to my father." ”
"Haha~, don't be afraid to make mistakes when you do things, when I first became the emperor, I made countless mistakes, but it's not terrible to make mistakes, what is terrible is to be afraid of making mistakes and not daring to do things, you must understand this truth, after all, there are many mistakes, and you naturally know how to avoid making mistakes!" Li Shimin laughed again when he heard his son's words.
Hearing his father's words, Li Zhi couldn't help but feel more confident, and finally nodded in agreement, and then Li Shimin asked Li Zhi about his life during this time, especially when he and the crown princess have been married for a while, but they have never had children, which makes Li Shimin also a little worried.
Early the next morning, Li Shimin convened the eldest grandson Wuji and others to discuss the matter, and decided to hand over part of the government affairs to the crown prince Li Zhi, and some powers were delegated to the three provinces and six ministries, so that Li Shimin's burden was much lighter, at least he no longer had to work day and night as before.
The eldest grandson Wuji saw that Li Shimin had finally figured it out, which made him very excited, and after the discussion, he immediately ran to Li Xiu in the car and told him the good news, and Li Xiu finally relieved himself after hearing it.
"Your Majesty has finally figured it out, and I also heard that a few warlocks who have already entered the palace have also been kicked out, so we can finally rest assured." When Eldest Sun Wuji said at the end, he also said with a relaxed smile on his face.
"This matter is finally over, but Your Majesty has handed over so much government affairs in his hands, and he will definitely be very idle in the future, I don't know what His Majesty plans will be in the future?" Li Xiu also breathed a long sigh of relief at this time.
"I think you can accompany Your Majesty out of the palace for a walk, after all, the palace is too depressing, even if a person who is not sick stays in it for a long time, I am afraid that he will be sick!" The eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile at the moment.
"Huh? The eldest grandson doesn't like the atmosphere in the palace either? This is the first time Li Xiu has heard the eldest grandson Wuji say such a thing, and he can't help but ask curiously, after all, the eldest grandson Wuji has been in the palace almost all year round, of course, the main thing is to accompany Li Shimin to deal with government affairs, but he didn't expect that he didn't like the atmosphere in the palace.
"Actually, it's not just that I don't like it, but Your Majesty probably won't like it either, especially after the death of the queen, there is no one in charge in the harem, although there are still four concubines, but they are of the same grade, no one can control whom, plus some dirty things in the palace, naturally the atmosphere in the palace is not very good." The eldest grandson Wuji sighed at this time, he suspected that Li Shimin had been sick often in the past few years, which was actually related to the atmosphere and environment in the palace.
Hearing the eldest grandson Wuji mention the eldest grandson queen again, Li Xiu couldn't help but sigh, speaking of the death of the eldest grandson queen is indeed a big regret, especially the impact on the Tang Dynasty is immeasurable, not only Li Shimin was affected, even Li Chengqian and Li Tai brothers were also greatly affected, if the eldest grandson queen could survive, I am afraid that the history of the Tang Dynasty will also undergo great changes.
After chatting about Li Shimin, Li Xiu and the eldest grandson Wuji chatted some gossip again, the main thing is some family matters, such as their children are now adults, and they all have to start living independently, which makes them all quite emotional as fathers, and even the eldest grandson Wuji also fell in love with Li Xiu's children and wanted to let the two families marry, Li Xiu did not object to this kind of thing, but he wanted the children of both sides to contact first, as long as the children were willing, he would naturally not object to it as a father.
The two chatted for a while, and finally the eldest grandson Wuji was about to get up and say goodbye, but then he suddenly thought of something, so he couldn't help but stop and said, "By the way, I've heard about the matter between Silla and Baekje?" ”
