Li Shimin's sudden words not only shocked Li Ke, but also the ministers below. After being shocked, all the ministers had the same reaction, "Do you call this punishment?" I'm afraid you have some misunderstanding about punishment.
Just when a few ministers were about to impeach, Li Ke jumped out.
"Dad, I reported to you last night that I will not assist you in handling state affairs!" Li Ke retorted loudly.
Are you kidding me? You let me jump into the hole I dug with my own strength?
"You reported it to me, but does this conflict with me punishing you? When did you make a mistake and you only need to report it and no punishment is needed?" Li Shimin asked lightly.
"But I'm a waste. I can't handle government affairs." Li Ke said loudly without saying a word.
Ministers: "..."
No, His Highness King Qin, we will not stop you from reacting like this. Isn’t it a good thing to supervise the country? To the prince, doesn't this mean that you are in the emperor's heart? You may be able to become a great treasure in the future, but your reaction... Good guy, you even said that you are a waste.
All of a sudden, all the ministers who were prepared to come out to oppose were no longer prepared to stand up. This scene was too weird. Think about it carefully... It seems that His Highness the King of Qin has always disliked that position. Although most people think that His Highness the King of Qin is just pretending. But don’t tell me, many ministers also believe it.
Now His Highness the King of Qin's reaction... After all, people who want to be emperors don't play like this. How can you say that you are a waste when you are above the court, and it is the biggest court meeting of the year.
Many ministers of the Ministry of Rites began to twitch at the corners of their mouths. If His Highness King Qin was not talking about himself... they would have come out to impeach you. You are making the work of our Ministry of Rites very difficult.
"I said you can do it, you can do it." Li Shimin said calmly, with a demeanor of remaining unmoved no matter what you say.
Li Ke: "..."
"Dad, you asked Li Tai to supervise the country. Didn't Li Tai handle it well in the first month of this year?" Li Ke looked around and said quickly.
"Ah... Third brother, I haven't been feeling well recently. I just asked Sun Simiao and Sun Zhenren to check me out. He said that I am bloated and need to exercise more." Li Tai said loudly, but he did not dare to refute too much. Cruel, when Li Ke looked over, Li Tai even shrank his head. If the third brother knew that this idea was his, then he might not be in trouble today.
Li Ke: "..."
"What other problems are there? Your eldest brother's feet still need to be nursed back to health. Do you want your eldest brother to handle state affairs while he is sick?" Li Shimin looked at Li Ke and asked lightly.
"Dad, should we think carefully about it? I am afraid of the consequences of handling state affairs." Li Ke smiled coquettishly. He wanted to say that we all know what happened to the eldest brother's feet. Later, I thought about it. If he dared to speak out the idea he came up with, even if it wasn't to stage a show of fatherly kindness and sonly filial piety.
"So I asked you to help me deal with it. I'll watch from the side while you work." Li Shimin said calmly.
Li Ke: "..."
Ministers: "..."
If they understand, they will deduct a 6.
You father and son are really good at playing. Everyone can see it. Whoever stands up is a fool. Everyone pretends not to hear this.
Li Ke looked around and saw Wei Zheng sitting there, and hurriedly said loudly: "Zheng Guogong."
"I'm here, what do you want, Your Highness?" Wei Zheng stood up.
"What is it, you are impeaching me! Oh no, you are admonishing me. Look, my father, as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, treats national affairs as a piece of cake and lets me, a useless prince who has never dealt with state affairs, handle it. State affairs, doesn’t this affect the operation of the imperial court and the state affairs of the Tang Dynasty? Duke Zheng Guo, as a minister, you should stand up and resolutely remonstrate at this time!"
"It is said that when you live high in the temple, you worry about the people; when you are far away from the rivers and lakes, you worry about the king. It means that you are worried when you advance, and you are also worried when you retreat. But when will you be happy? First, be good when the world is good, and then be happy when the world is happy. "Li Ke looked like he hated iron for not becoming steel.
Wei Zheng: "..."
Li Shimin: "..."
The ministers in the court: "..."
Everyone is speechless. When you live high in a temple, you worry about your people. When you are far away from the rivers and lakes, you worry about your king. This is so well said. Take it out alone, it can be regarded as an eternal masterpiece. Didn't you see that Chu Suiliang next to him started recording with his eyes shining again?
But look at the context in which Your Highness, King Qin, speaks...this...how do you want everyone to express this sentence?
Wei Zheng is not going to be punished by Li Ke, no, Your Highness, how do you want me to advise you on this matter? It's true that I, Wei Zheng, like to give advice, but I'm not stupid, and His Majesty didn't say that he doesn't handle state affairs. Besides, Your Highness, your reaction is more worthy of my criticism, right?
And...you said these famous quotes, can't you use them in serious places?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is slightly unwell and needs Your Majesty to assist His Majesty in handling state affairs. This is the right move. As the saying goes, there is no small matter in the country. Your Majesty understands the importance of this matter, so he asked His Majesty to assist in supervising the country. Your Majesty's move is actually for What's wrong with what the country does for the people?" Wei Zheng saluted Li Ke and said with a serious face.
Li Ke: "..."
Good Lord Zheng, you thick eyebrows and big eyes, you actually betrayed the revolution!
"Qi Guogong. You have to object." Li Ke saw that Wei Zheng was unreliable and turned directly to Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji: "..."
"Qi Guogong, look at me, Your Highness the King of Qin, last year, you see, I have repeatedly opposed you. If I were to supervise the country, how could you have an easy time? You have to oppose this, and everyone , many of you are seriously injured because of me. If you don’t object at this time, why not! My prison country is not as good as you." Li Ke said in a low voice.
Changsun Wuji: "..."
Many ministers: "..."
We originally wanted to object, but when Li Ke was talking to them just now, Li Shimin's eyes swept over him with a calm face. How many years have these people followed Li Shimin? No matter what state Li Shimin looked in his eyes, they all knew whether they could object to this matter.
What's more, Li Shimin has already said that he would ask Li Ke to assist him in supervising the country. This shows that Li Shimin is watching from behind, and His Majesty has said that it is punishment. Who dares to object?
"Your Highness is joking. The conflict between you and me is just a matter of political differences. It's all for the sake of the court and the Tang Dynasty. It's not about being against each other. You see, I have conflicts with Wei Guogong, Zheng Guogong, etc. time, so Your Highness doesn’t need to say too much, and just supervises the country and handles political affairs." Changsun Wuji said to Li Ke, cupping his hands.
Li Ke: "..."
Changsun Wuji, you have also fallen. Where is the unruly Duke of Qi? What about the Duke of Qi who doesn’t believe in anything evil?
"I object!" At this time, a thick voice like the sound of nature rang out.
Li Ke followed the voice with joy on his face. When he saw that it was Cheng Yaojin who jumped out to object, Li Ke's expression froze... It's useless for you to object!
