After reading Li Shimin's report, Li Yuan had a heated discussion with a group of ministers in the early dynasty.

"I believe that King Qin's folds have already been known to you Aiqing, I don't know what you think?" Li Yuan closed the fold and asked.

As soon as Li Yuan's words were finished, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites had already stepped out of the queue, made a courtesy to Li Yuan, and said: "Back to the emperor, the minister thinks that His Royal Highness the King of Qin has left the military camp privately, which is against the decree of the imperial court, and the emperor is asked to decree that he will be punished!" ”

"Wait!" His words made Li Yuanzhi frown, but before he could express his position, another person came out of the team, and this person was Li Shimin's brother-in-law, the eldest grandson Wuji.

The eldest grandson Wuji also performed a decent courtesy, and then said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that although His Royal Highness the King of Qin has made a mistake, he has made a meritorious contribution to disaster relief, and his merits outweigh his faults. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what the eldest grandson said is bad, as the saying goes, the prince should be guilty of the same crime as the common people. His Royal Highness the King of Qin left the barracks privately, both committing a crime and exceeding the courtesy, how could he cover up his sin with the light of merit? ”

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Qin......"

“……”

Li Shimin led his cronies to fight for many years, made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, and already had a certain status in the government and the opposition, and the ministers had already secretly divided into two factions, one faction was supporting him, and the other faction was supporting his brother Li Jiancheng.

Among them, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites was one of Li Jiancheng's supporters, and when Li Yuan consulted the ministers about this matter, he was the first to stand up, wanting to take this opportunity to suppress Li Shimin's limelight and prevent Li Shimin from taking advantage of this matter to establish his prestige inside and outside the government and the opposition.

But in addition to Li Jiancheng's cronies, this court also has Li Shimin's cronies. Through the Ministry of Rites and the eldest grandson Wuji took the lead, the ministers of the two factions argued with each other in the court, and the two sides insisted on their own words, one side was in love, and the other side was in law, and they made a lot of trouble, and they didn't notice that Li Yuan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, had already frowned.

"That's it!"

As soon as you drink it, the ministers are shocked! Li Yuan, who was upset by the noise, slapped the armrest of the dragon chair heavily, Li Yuan was in the same year, under the palm, the minister who was making noise in the hall immediately stopped the noise, knelt down, and did not dare to squeak again.

Li Yuan said with a straight face: "King Qin left the military camp privately, the crime cannot be escaped, and he should be punished!" However, remembering his meritorious service to disaster relief and maintaining the face of my Datang, the merits and demerits offset each other, and they were not pursued or rewarded. ”

"But Your Majesty ......" The waiter of the Ministry of Rites seemed to be dissatisfied with this result, and he looked up and wanted to say something, but Li Yuan no longer gave him any chance: "Enough, this matter is over." You don't need to discuss it anymore, if there is anything to say, cut it! ”

The word "chop" immediately cleared the entire court, and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites hurriedly buried his head, for fear that Li Yuan would really treat him as the waiting chicken!

Looking around at the courtiers who knelt down in the hall, Li Yuan, who was angry in his heart, did not call them up, and directly brought the words to the second agenda.

"Do you have any opinions about the master recommended by King Qin?" He asked, but the courtiers in the hall seemed to be frightened by him, and none of them took the initiative to respond, seeing this, Li Yuan's heart became even more angry.

He smiled coldly and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, if you are really my right-hand man, it is a pity that it is useless at a critical time!" ”

Hearing this, a cadre of ministers sweated profusely.

At this time, Li Yuan's confidant Zheng Shanguo raised his head.

He bowed to Li Yuan and said: "Back to the emperor, the minister thinks that if that master is indeed as scheming as His Royal Highness King Qin said, he should be rewarded, but he has not been examined, and he is afraid that it will be a violation of the law, so he is the minister implores His Majesty to reward him with ten thousand gold to comfort the subjects of the world." ”

Li Yuan nodded lightly and said, "That's true, someone is going to draft a decree ......."

"Your Majesty!"

Li Yuan was about to give Chen Fang ten thousand gold, but Du Ruhui interrupted him.

"Du Qing's family, do you think the reward is inappropriate?" Li Yuan asked.

Du Ruhui replied: "Definitely! ”

"In that case, why did the Qing family interrupt me?"

Du Ruhui is strategic, Li Yuan has always been very polite to him, even if he interrupted him, he did not get angry, but asked his opinion softly.

Du Ruhui bowed and said: "Your Majesty, when I first established the Tang Dynasty, it was the time to employ people, and that master, although he had not been scientifically examined, thought that he could strengthen my Tang Dynasty only when he was eclectic and reduced talents." ”

"This ......"

Li Yuan Taiyuan raised troops, invaded Chang'an, supported the Sui people as the emperor, ascended the throne the following year, changed the country name "Tang", it has only been two years since then, as Du Ruhui said, the Tang Dynasty is the time to employ people, if you see the talent but do not use the talent, it is indeed a bit wasteful, but Chen Fang has not been scientifically examined is also a fact, for a time Li Yuan was a little embarrassed.

At this time, Wei Zheng suddenly popped out of his head again. "Your Majesty, the minister has a plan!"

Wei Zheng was a traditional person, adhering to the ancient idea of the order of the young and the old, and was also one of Li Jiancheng's auxiliaries. However, he is also known as a human mirror, an upright person, although he belongs to the Jianjian faction, but he will not play conspiracy, and he is a real ruler.

Hearing that he had a plan at this moment, Li Yuan's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and he hurriedly said, "Aiqing, talk quickly." ”

Wei Zheng didn't shirk and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know if you still remember that the current county magistrate of Guangliang County is a female official?" ”

Although Li Yuan felt that Wei Zheng's words were a little strange, he still stroked his beard and replied, "Naturally, I remember." In the early years, when I first started my army and almost died on the battlefield in the battle, my father received an arrow for me, and I promised him that if I established a country, I would reward him with a county order, but unfortunately he died before this day, and his eldest son disappeared for no reason. Aiqing was strongly opposed at the beginning, why do you want to bring up the old matter again? Are you afraid that I will be ungrateful, so remind me? ”

"Definitely!" Wei Zheng shook his head, and then said: "Your Majesty, a few days ago, in the case of the Guangliang Shenguang Sect, the fiancé of this female official was involved in it, although he was not a member of the Shenguang Sect, but he was also imprisoned, and the marriage of the two families was also stopped. First, it can reflect the emperor's love for his courtiers, and secondly, it will not waste talents, which is a two-way solution. ”

"Haha, Wei Aiqing, for you, this should kill three birds with one stone." Li Yuan felt that Wei Zheng's plan was very good, and the embarrassment in his heart disappeared at once, and he laughed and joked about Wei Zheng, but Wei Zheng didn't even blush, as if he hadn't been seen through his thoughts.

Seeing him like this, Li Yuan suddenly felt bored, restrained his smile, and said loudly: "Come on, plan the purpose!" ”
