Tai Chi Palace. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Taiji Palace is not the largest of the many palaces in the Tang Dynasty, but it is the place where various decrees of the early Tang Dynasty were promulgated, and it is these decrees that enabled the early Tang Dynasty to achieve the rule of Zhenguan.

Tang Zhou was not familiar with the Taiji Palace, and it could even be said that it was the first time to come, he followed behind the eunuch, looking around as he walked, only to see that this palace was not as splendid as he imagined, probably because it had been built in the Sui Dynasty, many places in the Taiji Palace seemed a little mottled.

And on some palace walls, there are even traces of blood left by the fighting.

Maybe the blood of the Xuanwu Gate Revolution is still left behind.

Thinking like this, the eunuch had already led Tang Zhou into Li Shimin's imperial study, and as soon as Tang Zhou entered the imperial study, he saw Li Shimin sitting there reviewing the recitals, Li Shimin was in his forties at this time, and he was in the prime of life.

In front of Li Shimin, there stood a slightly fat old man, this old man should be about sixty years old, with thick eyebrows, giving people a stubborn feeling that is not easy to mess with.

According to Tang Zhou's known memory, this person should be Wei Zheng.

After taking a look like this, Tang Zhou hurriedly knelt down to salute Li Shimin, Li Shimin saw Tang Zhou coming, and immediately put down the fold, looked Tang Zhou up and down, and then nodded: "There is indeed a bit of heroism in Tang Gu......

Before Li Shimin finished speaking, Wei Zheng suddenly spoke: "Shengshang, although Tang Xiaohou has the heroic appearance of the old marquis, but in terms of character, it is too far behind...... also made a poem "Pork Eating Poem", which simply lost the face of Donald Marquis. ”

Wei Zheng was a little open-mouthed when he impeached people, but Tang Zhou smiled indifferently: "Listening to Lord Wei's words, it seems that I am very familiar with my father, and I have heard that Lord Wei is my first minister of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Tang Zhou's words are very level, if Wei Zheng has a good relationship with Tang Gu, then it would be a bit unkind and unjust for him to unscrupulously belittle and impeach his friend's son now, and if Wei Zheng has a bad relationship with Tang Gu at all, or even have no friendship at all, then what he just said to have lost the face of Old Marquis Tang is a bit hypocritical.

Old Marquis Tang has no friendship with you, what does it matter to you whether you are embarrassed or not?

Wei Zheng has been in officialdom for many years, and when he impeached people, he was foaming at the mouth, when was he said that he was afraid, but when he heard Tang Zhou's words, he suddenly didn't know what to say.

Li Shimin saw that Tang Zhou's complexion was as usual, and he didn't deal with Wei Zheng like Cheng Biting Jin, but found another way, and couldn't help but appreciate this young man a little more, but appreciation is appreciation, he believed that what Wei Zheng said would probably not be wrong, so he asked: "Tang Zhou, is what Lord Wei said false?" ”

Tang Zhou bowed his hand slightly, and said: "Back to the sage, what Lord Wei said is not false at all, the minister was indeed a loser before, and he did go to the restaurant to be a cook in order to repay the debt, and the poem "Pork Poem" was indeed written by the minister. ”

Seeing that Tang Zhou didn't defend at all, Li Shimin and Wei Zheng were both stunned, and after being stunned, Wei Zheng was a little excited.

"Tang Zhou, since you have confessed to everything, can you admit your guilt?"

Wei Zheng, who was excited, suddenly pointed at Tang Zhou and shouted, like a person who had been aggrieved for a long time and suddenly found that there was a person who was inferior to himself and could be wantonly humiliated by himself.

And although Li Shimin didn't like Wei Zheng's behavior, he had to look at Tang Zhou and asked, "Since you have done all these things, do you know where your sin is?" ”

Tang Zhou smiled lightly and said: "Back to the saint, the minister doesn't know where the sin is, and the minister feels that the minister has no sin at all." ”

Li Shimin frowned slightly, for so many years, no one has ever said such a thing so reasonably.

"Oh, tell me, how come you are not guilty?"

"According to what Lord Wei said, there should be three sins of the minister, one is to be a loser, the second is to be a cook in a restaurant, and the third is to make a poem "Pork Poem", Lord Wei, is this so?"

Wei Zheng saw that Tang Zhou had also made a summary, so he nodded: "Exactly." ”

Tang Zhou smiled lightly and said: "Then let's talk about the first loser, it is indeed a bit extravagant to spend money before going down, but the money spent under the next is all accumulated by the ancestors, and he has never used improper means to obtain money for his own squandering, just ask what is the crime of spending his own money?" If you spend too much of your own money and you are guilty, then won't my Datang Surplus Family become a guilty person, and even anyone who spends their own money will become a guilty person, if so, isn't Lord Wei also guilty? Unless you say the money you spend is never your own. ”

"You ......" Wei Zheng's face turned red when he was angry by Tang Zhou's words.

"Let's talk about the second one, being a cook in a restaurant, this thing is true, but is it a sin to be a cook for others? If so, wouldn't all the cooks in the world be guilty? ”

"You...... You're a strong argument. Wei Zheng snorted coldly, and then said to Li Shimin: "Holy Lord, Tang Zhou, as my Tang Marquis, went to the restaurant to be a cook for others, this is simply ignoring my Tang face, he hurriedly threw away my Tang Dynasty, is this not guilty?" ”

Although Li Shimin agrees with what Tang Zhou said before, he insists on this, he wants to build the Tang Dynasty into a prosperous and powerful country, and he wants to shock the Quartet, but if the news of a Tang Marquis going to a restaurant to be a cook for people spreads, wouldn't it be a loss of face for the Tang Dynasty?

"It's really inappropriate for Master Hou to be a cook." Li Shimin attaches great importance to face, so at this time, he has to say a fair word.

Tang Zhou was not in a hurry, and said: "I have heard that the saint and Lord Wei compare the king to the boat, and the people to water, water can carry the boat and overturn the boat, and the minister feels that the saint can stand up with this word, and he will become an emperor through the ages, and according to the minister, Zeng Yun in the "Book of Han", the people take food as the sky, and food is the sky for the people, and the saint wants water to carry the boat, and it is necessary to meet the people's demand for food, so, farmers, cooks, these are the two most important types of people for my Tang Dynasty, and the minister is willing to be the cook, what is the crime? ”

Tang Zhou's words are a bit much, but if you think about it carefully, you can't find anything wrong, since the monarch mainly relies on the people, and the people must rely on food, then if there is no food, there is no cook to handle the food, how can the people maintain their monarch?

Li Shimin was a little shocked, but what shocked him was not Tang Zhou's remarks, but Tang Zhou's quotations, and he was able to justify himself.

It's just that although Li Shimin was shocked, he also knew that Tang Zhou had shifted the problem and transferred the matter of being a cook to the importance of food cooks to the people.

It's just that Wei Zheng is not easy to deceive.
