Chapter 161: A Transaction
"Then I will issue an order to remove Liu Zheng from his official position and never be hired!" Li Zhi gritted his teeth and said such a sentence. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Okay, I'm not in Chang'an for a few days, but I'm just trapped by the flood. The dignified prime minister of a country does not want to be loyal to the monarch and serve the country and handle political affairs well. Vainly trying to subvert the government and follow the dragon's work, so bold.
If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to take care of the face of the queen and the crown prince, Li Zhi would have scraped him alive now. But there is really no way, after all, Liu Zheng is the queen's maternal uncle, if he disposes of it too much, he will lose face in the court after all. Moreover, what Liu Zheng did, Li Zhi had to hide it. Otherwise, as soon as this precedent of rebellion is opened, I am afraid that there will be frequent rebellions like the Taizong Dynasty back then. The situation in the DPRK is unstable, and everything is empty talk.
But for this disposition, the eldest grandson Wuji is obviously not very satisfied.
"I don't know how Your Majesty should explain to the hundred officials?" He sat there, didn't look at Li Zhi, and gently picked up the hot soup just now and took a sip.
"This ......"
"After all, the prime minister is the head of a hundred officials, although Liu Zheng has not been the prime minister for a long time, but so easily dismiss a prime minister, the ministers are afraid that the hundred officials will be suspicious, and people will be confused."
"Then my uncle said, what should I do?" Knowing that he didn't care about it, Li Zhi simply asked to the end, the opposite side was about to be lost, and in front of the eldest grandson Wuji, he had nothing to care about.
"Alas! Lao Chen went to talk to Liu Zheng in private. I heard that he suffered a foot injury when he was young, I don't know if it's okay? It's been hot lately, so don't have another attack. "It's serious, as if he's really worried about Liu Zheng's body. That's it, winning an Oscar is really worthy of the name.
"It's the best of both worlds, but it's cheaper." Li Zhi had a sense of unsettling the atmosphere.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has said it too many times. Don't be in a hurry to do things, and if you are in a hurry, you will be in a hurry. In the future, once Liu Zheng comes down from the phase, His Majesty can let go of the rest of the things, and the old minister will never obstruct it. With a tone of teaching apprentices, the eldest grandson Wuji taught Li Zhi his political perception of this life.
"Yes, I have been taught."
If it is usual, Li Zhi will mostly have a kind of rebellious heart. I'm already the emperor, and I still need you to teach myself a lesson by nagging here? Listen to your lessons every day. But today's Li Zhi is very humble, listening carefully to every word of the eldest grandson Wuji, figuring out everything he does, clumsily imitating and learning.
Today's Li Zhi has the heart of an emperor, but he is still just a political rookie. The stupid bird flew first into the forest early, not to mention, Li Zhi was not stupid at all. For the emperor to finally be able to listen to his teachings, the eldest grandson Wuji said that he was still very pleased. It's just that he forgot that most of the apprentices in this world were taught and starved to death of masters.
"The old minister has one more thing to say."
"Uncle, but it doesn't matter."
Although this matter is very bad, after all, it is just Liu Zheng's whimsy. It has nothing to do with the queen mother and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I beg your majesty not to be angry! "Take out Liu Zheng for the sake of the country, for the emperor. But if he affected the queen while taking out Liu Zheng, or even more terrifyingly, it affected the crown prince, this is definitely not what the eldest grandson Wuji wants to see.
"Uncle just said that the Middle Palace receives people from the Taiyuan royal family more often!" Li Zhi raised the corners of his mouth, as if he had found some opportunity.
"The old minister said that the middle palace receives the Taiyuan royal family more frequently, but he never said that the queen mother has any other ideas, please don't misunderstand." He tried his best to clarify the facts, and the relationship between Li Zhi and the queen was already at a freezing point. If this happens again, I'm afraid that the abolition will be just around the corner.
"Ah, I forgot to tell my uncle in a hurry this day, Mei Niang gave birth to a very cute little princess for me yesterday, I don't know when my uncle is free, you might as well go and see the princess."
The eldest grandson Wuji's face changed all of a sudden, and it was extremely ugly. But at this time, it is still impossible to have a seizure. "The old minister entered the palace in a hurry yesterday, and he had time to prepare gifts in the future, and he never heard that Zhaoyi gave birth to a princess. Since it is a happy event, the old minister will enter the palace tomorrow and be touched by the joy of the princess. ”
"So very good, so very good. As for the queen, my uncle doesn't need to worry. After so many years, I know very well what she is like. What she said was that she wanted to do me any harm, and I absolutely didn't believe it. As for the prince, didn't my uncle also say it? The prince has always been careful to guard the East Palace, and has he never participated? Although Zhong'er is a little wooden on weekdays, he is definitely a filial child, and I know it in my heart. Li Zhi smiled slightly, looking at the eldest grandson Wuji, how about this is now learning and selling?
"Hahaha, hahaha" The eldest grandson Wuji laughed out loud, full of relief.
"Since this is the case, then the old minister will retire first." As he spoke, he got up and said goodbye.
"Eh, where is my uncle going? It's time for dinner, and you and my uncle and nephew have breakfast together, and when it's time for the dynasty, we can go together. As he spoke, he shouted outside: "Wang Laifu, prepare breakfast, and I will eat with the captain today."
Wang Laifu hurriedly agreed at the door: "The old slave obeys the order, this is going, this is going." As he spoke, he ran straight outside as soon as he slipped through the smoke.
"This old guy ......" Li Zhi said with a smile, although he was still less than fifty, he was old enough in Datang.
"The prince has been by His Majesty's side since he was born, and he has done his best for decades, only when he is by His Majesty's side, can we, the foreign ministers, rest assured of His Majesty's dragon body."
"That's right, after so many years, I've been serving me with all my heart." Li Zhi nodded and said softly.
No matter what the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Zhi said, it would be difficult for others to know after all. It was only less than three days later, Prime Minister Liu Zheng had a foot disease and could not walk, so he resigned from the post of prime minister. The saint took pity on him for working for the country, repeatedly retained him, and finally allowed him to stay as the secretary of the ministry. After three months, he was allowed to resign and return to China.
When Wu Zetian had just finished giving birth, Li Zhi had already sent the little eunuch to the Wu family and Helan family to report the good news. Early the next morning, Mrs. Yang happily handed over the sign and was taken into the palace to see Wu Zetian. At the same time, Wu Shun also wanted to go, but Helan Minzhi stopped her.
"A-Niang, you are neither an edict, nor do I have an official position. According to the rules, you are not allowed to enter the palace to face the saint. Now that my aunt has just given birth, the people in the palace must be staring at her, so let's not go and make trouble for her, just wait for the news of my grandmother. Although Helan Minzhi said with a smile, the haze in his eyes was not missing at all.
"Huh? Yes. I was so dazed that I forgot about it. Since this is the case, then the mother will not go, and she will not go. Later, let's go to your grandmother's and wait for news from her. ”
"Don't worry, Your Majesty has spread the news, and the mother and daughter must be safe." (To be continued.) )
