Chapter 372 is complete

The courtiers in the palace don't know that a few days ago, His Majesty King Chen canonized the old Taoist priest as a national teacher on the day he entered the earth. Judging from this posthumous seal, King Chen's intention is very clear, and it is clear that he believes in this matter.

Knowing King Chen's clear thoughts, the courtiers did not have to be careful of speaking contrary to King Chen's intentions, and they all expressed their reverence for the old Taoist priest's behavior, and they were even more extremely appreciative and grateful to the old Taoist priest's practice of serving the people. Words of appreciation are like a surging river, endlessly in the palace.

"Your Majesty, the minister heard the old Taoist priest's remarks about the tragic situation in Leshan. The people of Leshan should have been assisted when they were suffering, but it was the will of the king not to garrison troops in the province. If it is disobeyed, His Majesty will inevitably fall into the name of unfilial piety. Please also ask Your Majesty to think twice, block the old news, and not mention it. Chen Baichuan said.

Everyone in the hall was shocked, first, they were surprised that Chen Baichuan dared to extinguish King Chen's interest at this time, and at the same time, they were also surprised that Chen Baichuan was different from usual. In normal times, this Chen Shangshu loves the people like a son the most and despises the etiquette system, but today he turned the other way around.

King Chen also said strangely: "Chen Aiqing's words are different, the people of Leshan Province are my people, how can there be a reason why the monarch does not care about the life and death of his sons." I am not disobeying the will of the kings, but I am dedicated to the preservation of the people. ”

"Even so, the minister is still worried that His Majesty will break the etiquette and leave a stigma in the annals of history."

Chen Wang felt more and more strange, but Chen Baichuan's words were for his sake, and he didn't see the clue for a while. However, before Jiang Chang led the old god to stand up to the ministers, he already understood Chen Baichuan's intentions in his heart at this moment. He kept it a secret, but just cooperated with Chen Baichuan's words to defend King Chen:

Although Chen Shangshu's words are reasonable, he underestimated His Majesty's heart that loves the people like a son. If it is for the sake of the common people, what if Your Majesty is burdened with the infamy of unfilial piety? Your Majesty's Sacred Heart, how can you and I speculate, and you and I can compare? The minister is not as far away as His Majesty. ”

Jiang Chang's words were to render King Chen's image glorious, Mo said that he was just burdened with the infamy of unfilial piety, that is, if King Chen was burdened with more at this time, he would be willing. At this moment, in King Chen's heart, he regarded himself as the Shengming Monarch in Jiang Chang's introduction. He was not confused, he understood Jiang Changyin's words, and after the historian recorded today's events, he took a step closer to the avenue of the Shengming Monarch.

Chen Wang was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Chen Aiqing, the teacher still said my words very clearly, do you understand?" ”

Chen Baichuan knelt down on one knee: "It's Weichen who is reckless, etiquette is important, and it is not as important as the people." As the so-called country, the country is composed of families, and families are composed of living people. Without the people, there would be no country, and how could there be etiquette and law. ”

"Good!" King Chen shouted loudly, and he couldn't help but have a little more admiration for Chen Baichuan's talent in his heart, and he was still as pedantic as an old scholar, and he understood it so thoroughly once he was instructed. Thinking about it, I am ashamed, the deep layer of Chen Baichuan's words is that he has never thought of it.

Jiang Changyin also boasted: "Chen Shangshu is a young genius, and these words can be recorded in history and listed as a proverb for future generations to guide kings." ”

"It's just a matter of chance."

"Shang Shu is humble."

………………

At the end of the court meeting, the ministers walked out of the hall in groups of three or five. Today was just in time for free time, and there was no political affairs to be entangled, and King Chen did not call people to stay in the palace to talk. General Chen, who often "stays in the hall", rarely goes home with Chen Baichuan today.

As soon as he entered the gate of Chen's mansion, Chen Baili took Chen Baichuan to the study. There are no outsiders in the house, but after all, there are many people, and important things can't be leaked out in front of everyone. Chen Baili already had a lot of questions backlogged in his heart, so he was waiting to ask Chen Baichuan at this time.

After Chen Baili slammed the door of the study, he couldn't wait to speak: "Is the miracle in the city related to you?" ”

Of course, this kind of thing is to die and not admit it, Chen Baichuan cheekily ignored Chen Baili's eager gaze, and only said lightly: "I'm not an immortal, where will I perform miracles." Your imagination is so rich that it would involve me. ”

Seeing that he refused to tell the truth, Chen Baili was not angry enough to make the chair on the side of the log table, and said, "You told me about the matter of Leshan Province not long ago, and then there were so-called miracles in the city. Recently, you have changed your previous life and even talked about etiquette. How can there be so many coincidences in the world, or do you think I'm a fool? ”

Knowing that he couldn't hide this, Chen Baichuan replied with a smile: "I didn't plan to hide it from you in this matter, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see these clues." ”

"Do you dare to say, do you know what kind of waves this matter will set off if it is known to outsiders?"

"You're not going to say it. I said, I'm just going to let you know. And even if the people in the court knew, would they dare to explain it in front of King Chen? I'm afraid I'm fine, and the one who defiles the gods by saying it will have to move his head. ”

"You're getting more and more arrogant." Chen Baili covered his head and was quite helpless, "Judging from the situation in the palace today, Old Man Jiang should finally understand your intentions." I just don't know if he can guess the miracle. ”

"I can't guess it, even if I guess it, Old Man Jiang has been serving the country and the people all his life, and he won't demolish me. Old Man Jiang won't do this kind of thing, but if I do, he won't stop it, and will even try to protect me. At the cost of a white lie, in exchange for the safety of millions of people, the business is well worth it. ”

"It's up to you."

……………………

The moon was silent, but the water echoed. Chen Baichuan gathered people and horses to gather in a remote house at this moment, and the people around him were asleep. In the dead of night, the most noisy sound is none other than whose dog is frightened, and a few bright barks.

In the deep alley, Chen Baichuan was followed by a group of black-clothed people, climbing over a low wall.

This is the residence of a good family who moved to Chendu a few years ago, and according to official documents, this family moved from Anling Province. But Chen Baichuan took out a yellowish piece of paper from his arms, on which was written the address of the family.

In order not to injure good people by mistake, he had already arranged a temptation.

I saw a strong man dressed in black, as if he had melted into the night. He knocked on the door, and the sleeping couple woke up, thinking that the toddler had a nightmare in the middle of the night to find his father.

Gently pushed the door open, but the man of the house found that it was a man in black outside the house, and his face couldn't help but change. He exclaimed, "Who are you, why did you break into my house in the middle of the night?" ”

"It's my own people, others have been discovered, and I came to you to flee."

"What? Who found out? ”

It's really a Qingguo spy. Chen Baichuan clapped his palms, and suddenly a crowd of people surrounded him, and the owner of this house couldn't escape at this moment.
