Li Ke smiled, and then asked: "How many emperors do you think can do what my father does?"
"Not much." Wei Zheng also said.
"Well, what if Li Tai needs to deal with more political affairs? With the busy workload of Tang Dynasty Memorials at the end of the year, at least during the New Year's Day, he may not be able to handle the memorials every day."
"I don't know how long he can persist in this kind of life. Anyway, I won't do it for a day. If he can really persist without any complaints and persist for a month, I think it will be fine for me and my eldest brother to let him become the prince. ."
Fang, Wei: "..."
"Actually, I still have some questions that I haven't asked. For example, in this year, how many times have you remonstrated with Duke Zheng? How many times have you made my father angry? How many times have my father compromised with the ministers in the court? Wait." Li Ke asked again with a smile.
Wei Zheng: "..."
How many times did Li Shimin compromise with his ministers? That's too much.
Do you really think that processing a memorial is just a matter of drawing circles and crosses on the memorial with an imperial pen? If it were that simple, everyone could be an emperor.
When reviewing each memorial, everything must be coordinated, and the content described in the memorial must be well understood in the mind. If it is not clear, at this time, it is necessary to send eunuchs to the three provinces or secretary supervisors (equivalent to Datang Royal Library) to retrieve relevant information, or go to the Six Departments to retrieve information from previous years, and then conduct careful investigation before making a decision.
Sometimes it takes more than half a day to review a memorial.
If they are not handled well, there will be more and more memorials, and if some memorials cannot be handled in time, they will eventually affect the operation of the entire court.
"So, I think we can let Li Tai give it a try. If he is really a wise king, he can be regarded as discovering talents for the Tang Dynasty. When he handles state affairs, Zheng Guogong, you can treat him as a real emperor. Then ask him according to the emperor's standards. You are the servant and the one who supervises the emperor. I think your opinion is very important." Li Ke said seriously.
Wei Zheng: "..."
Don’t you just want me to spray him, just say so? As for being so tactful?
As for trolling Li Tai? Haha, let alone him sitting in that position, even now, Wei Zheng has countless reasons and excuses to impeach him.
Li Tai can't do these things as a prince, and even less as an emperor!
These things alone were enough for Wei Zheng to use an excuse every day to scold him for not bringing the same thing for more than ten days.
"Naturally, the two of us will not refuse His Majesty's request. Although I will not comment on whether this matter will be effective, I will comply with the order. But I still have a question." Wei Zheng said.
"Duke Zheng, please speak."
"Does His Highness the Crown Prince have any ideas?" Wei Zheng asked.
Fang Xuanling also looked over directly.
"No, my elder brother knows about this." Li Ke shook his head simply.
Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling immediately looked at each other. Li Chengqian knew? Don't have an idea yet? Is this what King Qin and His Majesty have done with His Highness the Crown Prince?
"Then I have no objection, but to be honest, if there are any mistakes in this matter, I will impeach Your Highness for delaying state affairs and treating the imperial court as a trivial matter." Wei Zheng said with a serious face.
"If you do this, Mr. Zheng Guo, I will impeach you." Li Ke said calmly.
"Why are you impeaching an old minister?" Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment.
"Impeach you for ignoring national security, ignoring the potential conflict between the princes, which may lead to the huge threat of the second Xuanwu Gate Incident, and not wanting to resolve the conflict in advance, but instead sitting back and watching while knowing what happened!" Li Ke said loudly.
Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment, his nose was a little crooked with anger, and he said loudly: "Your Highness, you are so messy!"
"Mr. Zheng Guo, you are doing this for your own selfish desires and are ignoring the possible fight between the princes!" Li Ke refused to give in at all.
Fang Xuanling: "..."
"I have worked hard for the Tang Dynasty, and I can learn from it by the sun and the moon."
"The things that His Highness has done for the people of the Tang Dynasty can be used as a lesson to the people!"
"Hmph! I have something to do today, so I cannot entertain His Majesty the King of Qin. I will naturally abide by His Majesty's orders. I will not send His Highness the King of Qin far away." Wei Zheng said loudly with a "hum".
"Hmph! Your chair is too hard. My highness's butt hurts. I don't want to sit down yet. Let's go." Li Ke also snorted coldly and stood up.
"Um...my wife asked me to buy some refined salt, and I'm leaving too." Fang Xuanling choked, then turned and left before the two of them.
After Li Ke left, the anger on Wei Zheng's face quickly returned to calm. He picked up the remaining tea on the table, took a sip, and then began to think deeply.
After leaving Wei Zheng's house, Li Ke also smiled and said to Tian Meng and others waiting outside: "Let's go, there is a shopping mall, Tian Meng, go and send someone to ask Zheng Lin from the Zheng family in Chang'an to come over. Just say that I want to see him."
"It's Your Highness."
"Pei Xingjian."
"I'm here."
"Go to Prince Yue's mansion and send him an invitation, saying that you will come to my mansion outside the city today." Li Ke said.
"yes!"
Li Ke didn't go to other ministers. There was no need. Li Shimin would have issued the order. The reason why he only went to Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling was probably because of Wei Zheng... It would be better to say that he knew about it. If he didn't know about it, Li Shimin proposed Wei Zheng had to find a way to advise him on this matter every minute, so he had to be informed.
Furthermore, Wei Zheng is indeed very important to the set meal prepared by Li Ke for Li Tai. Wei Zheng is professional in making people angry.
As for the angry words that Wei Zheng and Li Ke said just before leaving, they were actually just some ways for Wei Zheng to express his attitude.
Wei Zheng's implication was very clear. He originally disagreed with this matter because of the reasons he used to impeach Li Ke, but he agreed to share Li Shimin's worries. To put it bluntly, Fang Xuanling told Li Shimin from the side that I, Wei, am still the same troll. Don’t think that I am violating my principles and taking your side in this matter. You can do whatever you want next time.
It is also telling Li Ke that there will be no next time, only this time, and it will not be the same next time.
As for what Li Ke said... well, he didn't mean anything else, he just wanted to say something to Wei Zheng. As for what Wei Zheng thinks, it's up to him to understand.
So, you see, who says Wei Zheng doesn't understand, who says Wei Zheng has no emotional intelligence.
But sometimes he just doesn't bother to play like this. The people above the court, in future generations, will be equivalent to the top politicians in various major countries. Do you think they have no emotional intelligence?
Li Ke doesn't know whether Lao Fang can see it, but it doesn't matter whether he can see it or not. Lao Fang, actually, after Du Ruhui's death, he has collected a lot, otherwise, this guy will do something dirty. That's a lot.
