The Tang Dynasty's Taoist Mansion was as big as three modern provinces and larger. Such a feudal official, the overlord of one side, with millions of people below him, usually the ground would shake when he just stomped on it, but now they are gone The majesty of the past.
The chief officials of the five Taoist mansions, wearing the court uniforms of the first-class officials of the Tang Dynasty, with goldfish belts hanging around their waists, were kneeling shivering in the imperial study room.
They were all heroes and generals who followed the Li family in the east and west, and they had the courage to fight in the face of hundreds of thousands of enemy troops.
Facing the young Li Mingda, they raised their heads and took a sneak peek without daring to throw away.
The pressure was so great that it was greater than the emperor Li Shimin who fought on the battlefield in the previous generation of the Tang Dynasty.
shivering
In the imperial study room, it was the first time that Yu Xiaoqian saw such a domineering and arrogant Li Mingda. According to court practice, Yu Xiaoqian wanted to help the prince and ministers ease the tension. Now he was so frightened that he had forgotten about it.
Perhaps because they sensed Li Mingda's abnormality, Oscar and Grammy squatting next to him no longer had the stupidity of Erha in the past, like two ancient ferocious beasts that could kill them at any time.
It took a long time for the five first-rank officials and the frontier officials to feel that their knees were about to burst before Li Mingda slowly spoke.
"Does it hurt?"
Five people did not answer
“It seems I still don’t know the pain.”
The five of them gritted their teeth and plucked up the courage to answer: "I know it hurts and I know I was wrong. I ask your Majesty to punish you."
"What's wrong, how to punish"
"I did not write the annual report as required by His Majesty"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Li Mingda's mouth: "This is the attitude of admitting guilt. I feel that I owe you something."
"minister…"
"You ignored my request and made a fool of yourself, thinking that you have a lot of connections and merits as a feudal official. I won't do anything to you!"
"Look at what you are writing. You are not telling the truth. The data is all nonsense. Are all the government affairs you have reported to me this year written with your buttocks?"
"With a little bit of brains, it would be better for you to record a year's worth of data and copy it than to make up your own nonsense!"
“Trash snack”
"Are you just a flower pot decoration in your own Taoist mansion? Even if it is a vase in a brothel, you know how to copy it from the book. And what are you, the chief officer of the Tang Dynasty Taoist mansion, a first-class official of the Tang Dynasty, a feudal official, what are you doing? Your life is worse than a vase. Have you become a wooden dog squatting on a steamed bun on the ground that will only be used as a statue? "
"In this case, what use do I want you to do? You are just eating dry food and using it as a living bucket!"
"..."
Facing Li Mingda's roar, the five people did not dare to speak and knelt on the ground blankly.
Li Mingda roared angrily at the five ministers.
"You are your first offender. I will give you a chance. Give me a letter of repentance within seven days after the court meeting. You will understand where your mistakes are and how to correct them."
Five people kowtowed: "Your Majesty is merciful"
"Go down"
Li Mingda waved his hand and chased them away like flies.
"I'll take my leave."
The five people stood up tremblingly, not daring to rub their numb legs, and slowly supported each other and left the imperial study.
Li Mingda glanced at the backs of the five people and sneered again: "Five shrewd ghosts."
Murong Xue rushed out from the side, patted her chest and said, "Gouzi, you were so scary just now, like a cold-faced killer."
“Is it from North Korea?”
“Do you want garlic?”
“Have some”
Murong Xue joked for a while, and the atmosphere relaxed a lot. The family members on the side who had just been suppressed by Li Mingda's domineering remarks also breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, they had seen many unreliable Li Mingda, and now they were a little uncomfortable seeing such a fierce one for the first time.
As Li Mingda's number one fan, Wang Rong had already fainted with tears in her eyes just now.
Murong Xue ran up behind Li Mingda and stretched out her hand to rub Li Mingda's shoulders while asking: "Those people are all the chief officials of the Taoist government. Five people are equivalent to controlling almost half of the territory of the Tang Dynasty. At this time..."
Before Murong Xue could finish speaking, Li Mingda reached out to stop her, and turned around to order his subordinates: "Yu Xiaoqian, Zheng Wanli, please retreat, Wu Jue, Lin Dong, and Zhao Xiaomeng stay."
Yu Xiaoqian and a group of family members hurriedly woke up Wang Rong and a group of eunuchs. Even the historian quickly left the scene.
They knew the rules and understood that they had confidential things to say at this time and they were not qualified.
As Li Mingda's biological daughters, Qingfeng, Mingyue, Canghai, and Qiu Shui were not included. Canghai and Qiu Shui, who were on duty, stood unmoved on the left and right sides of Li Mingda.
Wu Jue had been following Li Mingda for so many years, and it was the first time he participated in such a clearing conversation. He sat next to Li Mingda with an uneasy mood and listened carefully.
Lin Dong and Zhao Xiaomeng looked confused. The incident happened suddenly, and they had no idea what was going on and were about to follow them up Qiu Ming Mountain.
So nervous
so excited
look forward to
"The others are gone, Gouzi, you tell me."
"You're such a bitch, you can slow down such a tense business by holding firecrackers in the streets and alleys and blowing shit up in public toilets."
Murong Xue looked aggrieved and acted cute and coquettishly at Li Mingda: "I hate it. How could we not be scolded by an aunt and uncle who had a bathroom full of daddy drippings all over our house?"
Lin Dong was shocked: "Is it true that Sister Murong has a headache? Aren't you afraid of being hung up and beaten by your parents when you go home?"
"They don't know why they whipped me."
"How is it possible? You are blocked at the door."
"That's not my house. I just found a house that didn't lock the door, went in, climbed over the wall, and ran away."
Lin Dong: "The eldest sister is the eldest sister, and my subordinates admire me."
Murong Xue: "You're welcome, you're welcome"
Zhao Xiaomeng: "Hello, Master"
Murong Xue: "I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it"
After hearing Murong Xue's story, Wu Jue felt even more uncomfortable. She found that the gap between herself and Murong Xue was getting wider and wider.
"Okay, let's get down to business."
Li Mingda interjected to bring the atmosphere back from the matter of exploding shit: "There are two, two, and five young people among these frontier officials."
Murong Xue: "Eldest brother's second or fifth son?"
"No, those two are real duplicitous people. Then this time I asked for a report, pretending to be deceptive, but they were actually checking my attitude. They know that I will use troops against Tubo next year. Once I capture Tubo, I will have all my skills. With time, we will gradually sort out the Tang Dynasty from the beginning to the end, and clean out these parasites that have mixed into us and suck our blood."
Murong Xue: "In other words, these two guys deliberately muddy the waters and want to test something."
Lin Dong: "The intention of pulling up the back of the three is not responsible for the public."
Zhao Xiaomeng: "The golden cicada's plan to escape from its shell"
Wu Jue: "His heart can be killed"
Li Mingda nodded: "I have a plan for you."
Li Mingda and the other two began to plan big moves for the future in the imperial study room.
To be able to serve as a feudal official in one party is not a brainless waste like third-rate Li Mingda. He still has basic eyesight and energy.
They knew that if Li Mingda didn't vent his anger and scold him, there would be no good results.
The conversation just now was just to draw out the anger in Li Mingda's heart.
The blood of the five people gradually recovered as they walked around.
Five people were walking and talking in Tai Chi Palace
