Chapter 488: The Emperor's Godson

"Qian'er, this matter is very important, and no one must know about it. If www.biquge.info leaks a few words, my Datang will be discredited, and at that time, who wants to form an alliance with Datang? Li Shimin's expression was solemn, and he solemnly told Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian nodded, and said after a while: "Uncle can't say it?" ”

"Can't!" Li Shimin said without hesitation: "The more people who know, the more risk of leakage." ”

"Whoa!" Li Chengqian was slightly stunned, and through Li Shimin's words, he found that his father seemed to be less obedient to his eldest grandson Wuji than before. At the same time, Li Chengqian also found that the eldest grandson Wuji seemed to have changed, and he was not as fully supportive of himself as before. This seems to have started when he got close to Qin Feng.

"Don't think about it." Li Shi patted Li Chengqian's shoulder and smiled: "You can go down too, tomorrow, you will invite envoys from various countries to a banquet on my behalf!" The world will be handed over to you after all, exercise more and exercise your abilities. ”

"Whoa!" Li Shimin's words, Li Chengqian should have been ecstatic, but at this moment, he only felt a heavy sense of mission and responsibility, and said: "Father, son, son, son......"

"What's wrong?" Li Shimin asked.

Li Chengqian took a deep breath and said, "Erchen is afraid that he will not do well and have the high hopes of his father. ”

Li Shimin said: "Your prince has done a lot better than I expected, and my father believes that Qian'er is doing better than my father, so you don't have to be pressured, and you don't have to worry." The emperor is also a human being, and people make mistakes, it doesn't matter if they make mistakes, what they are most afraid of is making mistakes again and again, in order to prevent mistakes again and again, so you have to listen to the advice of the ministers and analyze who is right and who is wrong. To tell you the truth, I don't like Wei Zheng very much from personal feelings, but from the perspective of national affairs, I need people like Wei Zheng very much, this kind of person is difficult to listen to, but his starting point is right, so a person can have no talent and no virtue, but he can't have the amount of tolerance for people, nor can he not have the wisdom of knowing people, you must keep this in mind. ”

"Qian'er, in the future, you must not hate those who sweep your face, no matter how ugly he says, he is all for your good, in order to make you correct your mistakes, so you should not hate him, but because you should be grateful! Only such an upright and unafraid of power is a truly trustworthy arm and a talent who truly thinks about Datang. So, therefore, the father only had praise for Wei Zheng and did not have any resentment. A person who dares to point out your mistakes is a hundred times more difficult than a person who flatters you. If you fail to do that, you are not a qualified king. ”

The serious words made Li Chengqian excited like a spring, his eyes were full of tears, and he couldn't say anything for a long time, just nodded heavily. After a while, he said: "Erchen remembered his father's words!" The retainers retired. ”

"Qian'er, how is this old guy Yu Zhining?" Looking at Li Chengqian's back, Li Shimin suddenly asked.

Old guys?

"This old ......" Li Chengqian, who was at a loss, wanted to call him "old guy" too, but when he looked back, he saw that Li Shimin's eyebrows were raised, and he hurriedly changed his words: "Mr. Yu, like Mr. Kong, is a well-known Confucian in the United States, and there are few rivals in scriptures. ”

"A woman's opinion!"

Li Shimin disdained Li Chengqian's words, and instead said to him: "Qian'er, that old guy has knowledge, and if you talk about the scriptures and the Tao, there are indeed few people who can compare with him." But he was too pedantic and rigid to be flexible, and regarded the words of the saints as the supreme truth. This old fellow took the words of the saints as if they were holy decrees, and when others had doubts, he jumped out and argued. Or your brother-in-law said it well, the words of the sage are right, but the times are advancing, and the people and things faced by future generations are very different from the era when the sage lived. Specific problems should be analyzed according to the specific situation, and they must not be generalized, otherwise it will be the fate of Zhao Kuo, who is talking on paper, and will eventually die of a fiasco. Qian'er, you can learn his cultural knowledge, but you must not learn from him how he behaves and behaves, which is not beneficial to the country and harmful to himself. ”

Li Shimin's words can be said to Li Chengqian's heart.

Yesterday, Yu Zhining and Kong Yingda taught him the way of doing things as a gentleman, saying that "a gentleman is a man of righteousness, and a villain is of profit". A gentleman should put righteousness first, and only villains should be profitable. told a lot of allusions, and Li Chengqian's ears were calloused.

Li Chengqian has his own views on things, and knows very well that if he is used to govern the country with the principles of Zhining and Kong Yingda, everyone will be a gentleman, and he will not fight back or scold. It is conceivable that the Tang Dynasty will not be ten years old, and it will inevitably decline. It's just that the other party is a well-known Confucian, and he is the teacher arranged for him by Li Shimin, so although he is impatient, he has to learn. It made him miserable. Li Shimin's words now made him suddenly brightened, and he felt that the dark sky had suddenly become bright.

"My father's words are good, and my sons also think that Confucianism is not bad, but nothing can be blind, once blind, it will be counterproductive. Erchen has always believed that learning is to learn at the side, to learn selectively, and to learn with questions is the best way. If they accept their theories in their entirety, I am afraid that the sons of Bole will become the sons of Bole, and mistake the toad for a thousand miles. ”

"Qian'er has such insight?" Li Chengqian was so excited that his beard trembled.

When Li Chengqian said this, Li Shimin also nodded approvingly: "You don't have to worry about my thoughts in the future, if you have any doubts in the future, you will use real examples to distinguish with them, don't be bored in your heart, they are people who are really academic, don't look at them as stereotypes, but once you make sense, once they are speechless, they will not only not blame you, but think that you are talented." Qin Feng repeatedly contradicted Kong Yingda, but why did Kong Yingda keep praising Qin Feng? The reason is that Qin Feng used all kinds of real things to make him speechless. You can do the same, and only then can you learn real knowledge, of course, if you have real talent and make sense. Otherwise, I wouldn't have protected you. ”

"Whoa!" Li Chengqian was so excited, many times, the words he wanted to argue came to his lips, but he was afraid that Li Shimin would be unhappy, so he had to endure it, and now that Li Shimin supported him, he was no longer afraid, and in an instant, the sullen Li Chengqian became energetic.

………………

Not long after Li Chengqian left, Empress Changsun came leisurely.

"Just in time, I have a good thing to share with you." Li Shimin's eyes lit up while humming a small song, he jumped up all of a sudden, took the hand of Empress Changsun, and proudly told her about teaching Li Chengqian just now.

Empress Eldest Sun couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your Majesty, the concubines know that you are thinking about Qian'er, but what will the gentlemen think if they know?" What would outsiders think? What will they think? They will say that it is His Majesty's connivance, so Qian'er is so unreasonable, which is not good for the emperor and for Qian'er! ”

Li Shimin also knew that what Empress Changsun said was reasonable, but in his heart he felt that his king's prestige was despised, and said angrily: "Qian'er is my son, how to teach me to have the final say, who dares to chew his tongue crookedly, I cut off his head." ”

has been with Qin Feng for a long time, and some post-modern and non-mainstream words, Li Shimin is at his fingertips.

Empress Changsun saw that Li Shimin was a little displeased, and muttered, husband and wife for many years, where did they not know what their husband was thinking in his heart, in private, especially in front of her, this emperor who ruled the world often did some childish things. For example, if I was wronged by Wei Zheng in the court, I couldn't vent this fire in my heart, so I would run to her and complain: "I want to kill Wei Zheng, a hillbilly." In fact, if Li Shimin really had murderous intentions towards Wei Zheng, with his means, with Wei Zheng's character, and with Wei Zheng's hundreds of offences against Long Yan, even if he had ten heads, it would not be enough to lose it.

Li Shimin did not kill him, but ran to Empress Changsun to sulk, muttering that he wanted to kill Wei Zheng, a hillbilly. What is the difference between this and a child who has been wronged and goes to the nearest person to confide in him, can Li Shimin really kill Wei Zheng?

Empress Eldest Sun also knew that Li Shimin was just talking, and she didn't care, but she just said: "Your Majesty, let's be honest, will it have an impact on him if you teach Qian'er like this?" ”

Li Shimin shook his head, and said in one breath: "Not at all, even if it has an impact, it is a good side." Datang needs a real, down-to-earth prince, not a master of learning, isn't Chen Shubao's knowledge good? Good, good. Calligraphy, painting is even better, if he is not the emperor, he must be a good poet, but he is the emperor, the emperor is the great management of a country, he should deal with some trivial and messy things that happen in the world, but he treats his country with the feelings of being a poet, he lives a luxurious life, ignores the government and politics, and feasts with concubines and ministers day and night, and makes glamorous words. When the Sui army went south, they were afraid of the natural danger of the Yangtze River and did not think so. In the third year of Zhenming, the Sui army invaded Jiankang, Chen Shubao was captured, and the Chen Dynasty was extinguished. Then there is Cao Zhi in the Three Kingdoms period, with outstanding watercolors, full of economy, and splendid articles, but why did the eloquent Cao Cao choose Cao Pi instead of Cao Zhi in choosing an heir? ”

"What the world needs is an emperor who pays attention to the suffering of the people and loves the people like a son, not a poet." Empress Eldest Sun said without thinking.

Li Shimin nodded and said: "The lessons of the previous car, especially in front of me, I can't help it." Speaking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help laughing: "I am very optimistic about this pair of uncles, Feng'er, this kid is really amazing, his flash of inspiration is all kinds of bad ideas, and it also indicates that the enemies of the Tang Dynasty will suffer." I can't help but admire, I don't know what he has in his head. I really can't empty his various ideas. Others say that those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black, Qian'er has been with him for a while, and he has been deeply influenced, which is a good phenomenon, a prince should have his own ideas, in the past, although Qian'er also did a good job, but I was not very satisfied, because he was too restrained in the past, too little of his own opinions. Now, he is becoming more and more generous. ”

Empress Changsun knew how Qin Feng treated Princess Changle well, and she liked her son-in-law more and more, she pursed her lips and chuckled: "Feng'er is indeed amazing, it is a good thing that Qian'er is friends with him." In the future, they will definitely achieve a good conversation together. ”

"Feng'er, everything is good, it's just too lazy." Li Shimin smiled and said, "He belongs to a donkey, you whip him before he takes a step, and you don't care about him and he stands still." This bastard is brilliantly talented, can think what others can't think, do what others don't dare to do, and is surprisingly bold. However, what I admire most is his laziness. ”

"Oh?" Empress Eldest Sun was a little puzzled.

"It is important to know that people with unparalleled talents have won many times since ancient times. But some people think very highly of themselves, and eventually harm others and themselves. Li Shimin smiled and said, "Under the influence of that unproductive boy, I suddenly found that this emperor is really a chore. When the world is stable, and when Qian'er can take charge on his own, I will hand over the world to Qian'er to manage. I don't think I've lived a good life for myself for most of my life. ”

When he was a teenager, he studied for the prosperity of his family; It was for the Sui Dynasty, and then it was for the sake of fighting for the world, and now, it is for the sake of all the people in the world. He thought about it for a while, as if he still had a lot of dreams to achieve.
