"Stand down, all of you...... I'm tired...... Today's matter is discussed here......" Li Chongsheng waved his hand and asked all the ministers and princes to step down.

"Father...... Emperor Li Jin, the king of Wei, came out of the line and bowed to the emperor, with an earnest look in his eyes......

"You can step down too!" Li Chongsheng interrupted him.

"Prince...... You stay!" When everyone had already left the palace, the emperor summoned Li Ren, who had already walked to the gate of the palace, back......

Li Chongsheng ordered the crown prince to return to his place and sit down, stared at him again with sharp eyes, and asked:

"Prince, you are the prince, the future of the country will be handed over to you, for King Jin's words today, you should talk about it......"

Li Ren hurriedly got up again and replied:

"Father, the son also feels that what the eighth brother said today is very reasonable. The father can order Qiu Ming Lixian to lead the law change matters, and tell him to do it first, what acres of land, households, people, measurements, and records...... Miscellaneous matters...... Let him ...... first"

Li Chongsheng interrupted:

"You mean, this is a big change, let Qiu Mingli, a small household servant, come to the general leader?...... Ren'er...... You've heard it today, and when it comes to changing the law, the big guys don't approve of it in their hearts...... Even the eldest grandson, who has always been old and respectful on weekdays, is openly opposed, as for the 'Yuanyulou' you recommend, it's not a thing, before the thing has started, it will be difficult, if it is not difficult, I want him to do what he wants to ......do as a household secretary."

Li Ren hurriedly knelt down and said in fear:

"The son of the minister recommended the lost person, please ask the father to punish the crime!"

Li Chongsheng glanced at Li Ren coldly, and said gently:

"Get up, there are no outsiders here, just our father and son, I want to hear it...... What do you think of this change?......

Li Renli got up, but he didn't dare to sit down, he thought about it for a long time, and said timidly:

"Erchen thinks that if this change can really increase taxes and enrich the treasury, it will be good, but ...... After all, in the past few hundred years from the previous dynasty to our great cadres, all the laws of collecting taxes by people have been practiced, and whether it is from the government or to the people, up and down, they have all been familiar with it, and they have all been at peace...... Now the sudden change to tax per acre is a good thing for the landless or landless commoners, but for those who have ...... There are large households with land and acres of land...... What will they think? What if the crowd is boiling and it is too much to manage?...... In case someone takes the lead in inciting and making trouble everywhere, it will stir up the world and shake the country...... Erchen ...... Erchen is deeply worried!"

Li Chongsheng snorted coldly and said:

"So, you just want that Tyuming Lilly to be the leader of the law, do you think...... If the change of the law is done, you also have a share of the credit, if the change of the law does not work, if it really comes to the time when 'the world is turbulent and shakes the national body', you will use the head of Qiu Mingli to block it, isn't it ?!......"

Li Ren hurriedly bent his legs, knelt down, and said in a trembling voice:

"Erchen...... That's not what Erchen meant...... Erchen just felt ...... The words of the eighth brother seem to have some truth...... Please forgive your sins!"

A fiery light in Li Chongsheng's eyes shot at Li Ren, bluffing Li Ren into quickly lowering his head, only to hear the emperor's voice coming like a high cliff top:

"You're still talking about your eighth brother...... King Jin said this, I don't blame him, you are the crown prince, you are the prince! You don't think about the common people everywhere, you don't worry about your family and country all the time, you only focus on your own small calculations, you can't do big things well, and you don't do less small things...... On weekdays, I know that I stuff people into various ministries, what are you stuffing, and if the officials of the six ministries are all villains like Yuan Yulou, you don't have to wait for the law to change, and my national body will be finished......"

Li Ren was so frightened that he was covered in chaff, his back was already covered in cold sweat, and his speech was slurred:

"Erchen...... The son is guilty!"

......

After a while, Li Chongsheng sighed again, as if he felt tired, and waved his hand to let the prince get up.

Li Ren didn't know whether he didn't dare to get up, or if he was so frightened that his legs were weak, but he was still prostrate on the ground, and Gao Liangshi next to him saw this, and hurriedly ran to pick Li Ren up......

Li Chongsheng said:

"If I remember correctly, then Qiu Mingli was a guest of the prince twenty years ago, and he can be regarded as half of your teacher......"

Li Ren said: "Exactly!"

Li Chongsheng said: "I remember that at that time, Yi'er and Jin'er were still young, and they also accompanied you to study in the East Palace?"

Li Ren nodded and said, "Yes......"

Li Chongsheng's gaze turned soft, and he said slowly:

"More than two months ago, I sent Qiu Mingli to prison, and the people in the Tsing Yi Wei misinterpreted my meaning and beat him to a cripple without permission...... If it weren't for your fourth brother entering the palace in time to admonish, I would have almost made a big mistake, and the later generations of historians would have killed Zhongliang in vain......"

Li Ren bowed and saluted: "My father is an emperor through the ages, a king of all generations, creating a peaceful and prosperous era for 70 years, pushing my great Qian's national strength to the extreme, even if he kills one or two ministers, the historians of later generations, how can he falsely accuse his father of the reputation of the eternal benevolent monarch?!"

Li Chongsheng couldn't help but shake his head and sighed:

"Shechen?...... In your eyes, your teacher turned out to be a minister! In the eyes of your fourth brother, he was only half a teacher who accompanied him, but he was a great loyal minister...... I tell you that now, my great cadres are in need of a minister like Qiu Mingli, who dares to speak out...... I look at you, in my spare time, I should go to your Mr. Qiu more often, and let him tell you more about what is the true way of a sage and the way of a king......"

Li Ren hurriedly replied: "Erchen knows, Erchen should often go to Mr. Qiu in the future and listen to the teachings!"

Li Chongsheng said: "As for that...... Yuan Yulou, I was originally ...... I want to demote him to be an eight-grade Sima ...... Forget it, if I look at your face, let him be a four-grade outsider, the seat of the head of the household...... I'll hand it over to you, Mr. Qiu......"

Li Ren bowed down and saluted: "Mr. Daiqiu, thank your father, the emperor's grace!

"Prince...... You have to remember! In the future, even if you are a fortress person, you must also fortress a few capable people......" Li Chongsheng said one last word, and then waved his hand to let the prince step down......

Seeing that the crown prince Li Rencheng was frightened and the rags withdrew from the hall, Li Chongsheng kept shaking his head, and at this time, a wave of sleepiness hit, he was really a little tired, so he lay down with his clothes. Gao Liangshi next to him hurriedly trotted forward, lightly took a silk brocade mattress over, let the emperor lean comfortably, and then slowly took off the emperor's boots......

"Ahem, this son of mine, can he be a good emperor in the future?......" Li Chongsheng sighed secretly, slowly closed his eyes, and fell asleep on the imperial couch......

Outside the hall, Li Ren, who looked annoyed, walked in the noon sun of Daming Palace. The warm winter sun could not dispel the gloom in Li Ren's heart, and as he walked, he secretly hated in his heart: "Good for you, Qiu Mingli! Good for your fourth brother! When did you get together?!"

......

Three hours later, unitary time, Chang'an City Liquanfang, Xufu.

After Xu Wu's illness was dismissed, he invited Qiu Mingli to his house as a guest, and Qiu Mingli readily agreed.

When he arrived at Xu's mansion, Qiu Mingli saw that Xu Wu's mansion was so magnificent, and he couldn't help but smile and said: "No disease, your mansion is more than twice as wide as the old man's thatched cottage!"

After being disease-free and leading Qiu Mingli into the door, there was more housekeeper Dong Laifu who came up to support him diligently, and along the way, the voice of "Master, Master Xu......" was endless. There were so many servants and maids in the Xu Mansion that they could see Qiu Mingli's eyes, and they couldn't help but secretly say: "Look at the situation in this mansion, it's more than double......

Xu Wuxian led Qiu Mingli to the back garden, and several people sat in the Wenyu Pavilion next to the rockery pool. He introduced Hu Yiyi and Shu Hetian to Qiu Mingli without illness, and when he talked about Hu Yiyi, he called him "sister", and when he said Shu Hatian, he said a title of "Brother Shuxian".

Dong Laifu, the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion, was very capable, greeted a few maids, served the dishes like flowing water, and a small pavilion was full of all kinds of delicacies, and some dishes had never been seen in Qiu Mingli......

Qiu Mingli couldn't help but be amazed, and then looked at the two people sitting next to him, one as beautiful as a fairy and the other as ugly as a dwarf, he asked:

"No disease, where did you come from in this house? How do you live so well now? And ......"

Wuxian smiled: "Teacher...... Don't be busy talking about these things, come and come, eat vegetables, eat vegetables......"

Qiu Mingli didn't want to talk about it when he saw that he was not sick, so he didn't ask any more, picked up a glass of sixty-year-old old phoenix wine that Hu Yiyi had just poured over, raised his neck and drank it all......

Hu Yiyi asked, "Mr. Qiu's leg?"

Qiu Mingli smiled: "Hey...... Discounted in prison, out of the way, out of the way...... Autumn has a cane in hand, so why be afraid......!

Hu Yiyi said: "The folk girl is a little better at medicine, can you let the folk girl see her sick leg?"

Qiu Mingli waved his hand and said: "Don't dare to work, don't dare to work......"

At Hu Yiyi's insistence, Qiu Mingli had no choice but to stretch out his left leg and roll up his trousers. Hu Yiyi checked the pulse for Qiu Ming for a long time, and said: "Mr. Qiu, rest assured, although your left hamstring is injured, the root bone is still good, wait for the people to prepare the pills, let the disease-free brother send it to you, Mr. Qiu only needs to take it according to my method, the people guarantee it, and after three months, Mr. Qiu can walk as usual......

Qiu Mingli's heart said that even the imperial doctor can't heal the injury, how can you, a folk woman, be cured with rough medical theory? But he can only clasp his fists in his mouth and say: "In this way, Qiu is very grateful......

Xu Wuxian clapped his hands and smiled: "This dare is good! Sister Hu, if my teacher can really walk as usual, I don't know how to thank you without illness......

Hu Yiyi smiled and narrowed her eyes like a crescent moon, and said, "Xiao Wuxi, you just need to remember that your sister is good to you, it's enough......"

Shu Hatian on the side squinted his eyes, but said disappreciably:

"What is this, my old sister practices medicine to help the world, and her medical skills are profound, and the leg injuries in this world, as long as she wants to be treated, there is no leg that she can't cure...... Apart from...... Except for that leg of her own...... If it weren't for my old Shu out that day...... Ahem......"

Hu Yiyi stared at Shu Haotian and said fiercely: "One day your mouse (Shu) leg is broken, see if I will treat you ......"

Shu Hattian's eyes seemed to show a few tears of grievance, and he muttered to himself: "People don't know you, you treat him, but I treat your big white beautiful legs without leaving the slightest flaw, but you are still so cruel to me...... The heart of a woman in the city, the needle of the seabed...... Woowoo woo ......"

Xu Wuxi saw that the two of them combined were more than two thousand years old, and they were arguing with themselves there, and they didn't feel a slight sigh in their hearts, and they didn't participate at the moment, so they just poured wine for Qiu Mingli......

Qiu Mingli's catastrophe is not dead, and his mind is already wide, this time when he went to the disease-free home, he listened to Shu Haotian and Hu Yiyi's words that seemed to understand or not, but he felt very childlike, and he was even more happy. At this time, the sky was dark, and Dong Laifu and his servants hung lamps in various courtyards......

After three rounds of drinking, Hu Yiyi was overwhelmed by the strength of alcohol, so he and Shu Hattian retreated......

The evening breeze blows in gusts, rolls up the fallen leaves on the ground, blows the pond water and ripples, smells the rain pavilion, an old and a young two, talk about the world's major events, drink the world's famous wine, only hate the golden cup is not full, do not feel that time is in a hurry......

When Qiu Mingli was drunk and smoky, he suddenly moved, and couldn't help but take the hand of the disease-free and said:

"Disease-free...... Do you know what worries the old man the most now?"

......
