The couple naturally knew what their eldest brother had thought and done in the past. Hongfu Nu persuaded Zhang Zhongjian in a low voice: "Brother, these times have changed."
The bearded guest looked unhappy and retorted: "Even if he becomes the Supreme Emperor, he is still the Supreme Emperor with real power. He hides behind his daughter's back and gives out so many orders, hum."
After hearing this, Li Jing and Hong Fu Nu laughed. It was obvious that Zhang Zhongjian really didn't know the current situation of the Tang Dynasty. Hong Fu Nu smiled and said to Zhang Zhongjian: "Brother, you are wrong. The Supreme Emperor is no longer in power. All the power of the Tang Dynasty is in the hands of the cabinet and His Majesty."
Li Jing interjected: "That's wrong, it's all in your Majesty's hands. The people in the cabinet are just here to sort out official affairs."
Hong Fu Nu glared at Li Jing: "Pharmacist, what are you talking about!"
Ignoring Hongfu Nu's glare, Li Jing continued with a smile: "This is the truth. Your Majesty also understands this. It's nothing."
╭(╯^╰)╮
The head of his family is really not very good at dealing with people. If he hadn't made mistakes over and over again, for example, Li Jing reported the Li family's breakfast box to Yang Guang, and before Li Shimin launched an army to seize the throne, he still stood in the wrong team. .
Li Shimin knew Li Jing's personality and ability, and in the end not only did he not cause trouble for him, but he continued to reuse him. Li Jing was very grateful for this, and of course he was complained about by Hongfu Nu.
His brother and sister were showing off their affection. Zhang Zhongjian saw it in his heart and felt warm and a little panicked. As for why, he knew it but couldn't explain it.
"Li Shimin really lost? Lost to his little daughter?"
Zhang Zhongjian asked Li Jing and Hongfu Nu, who were showing off their affection, in an unbelievable tone.
Li Jinghong, Fu Nu and his wife nodded, and Li Jing said: "Brother, it is indeed true. Your Majesty was defeated, and he was defeated completely."
Zhang Zhongjian scratched his beard and said in a doubtful tone: "No way, I saw that Li Shimin gave up his idea and gave his property to you when he had the appearance of a real dragon. I didn't expect that he would lose." , how did you do it?"
Hong Fu Nu: "Isn't it normal to give someone a free back? Besides, His Majesty is not a mortal. It is normal for the Supreme Emperor to lose."
According to legend, Li Mingda was reincarnated as a god, and Li Shimin's calculation errors were normal. Li Jing and Hongfu Nu once discussed this issue together after the movement. How did Li Mingda achieve his current position step by step? In the final analysis The conclusion they finally came to is not something that ordinary people can achieve.
First of all, they couldn't figure out how Li Mingda's imperial edicts, troop deployment orders and military talismans written by Li Shimin himself came into Li Mingda's hands, and how the Mingzun Holy Cult managed to have tens of thousands of elites in Chang'an. The training and preparations in the city were not discovered or leaked. Why was Li Shimin so confident that he had mastered everything?
Among them, what Li Jing finds most incredible is why Li Shimin didn't prepare for Li Mingda's rise?
Was it intentional or was it carelessness?
Anyway, he didn't know anything about their father and daughter's two generations of Emperors of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Jing: "I have thought about this matter and never understood it. Anyway, the Supreme Emperor was defeated and gave it to His Majesty for nothing. All the back-up options have been almost exhausted. Now I am living a pastoral life."
What Li Jing said was true, and Zhang Zhongjian also believed that what Li Jing said was the truth, he just couldn't believe it.
"It's normal for some things in the world that you can't understand. I'm here this time hoping to get Datang to let go of my power. Do you think that's okay?"
If it were based on Li Shimin's character, he would definitely not be stingy about conquering a force and giving him a title or something, and he would think that it would not matter if he paid some money. However, the first person to take power was Li Mingda, and Li Mingda's character was completely consistent with him. According to Li Mingda's character, Li Jing instantly had the answer in his heart.
"Brother, according to His Majesty's character, you have nothing to offer. Either surrender or be beheaded. There is no second option."
"What, so tough?"
Li Jing nodded: "Your Majesty thinks so, he will never be merciful when dealing with enemies."
The bearded man scratched his beard and said with some embarrassment: "I guess I'm not an enemy, right?"
Hongfu Nu: "Then, brother, you'd better surrender. His Majesty will definitely have arrangements for you. Your Majesty is very tolerant and kind to his own people."
He is cruel to his enemies and treats his own people very well. This character seems to be very similar to his own. As a native emperor on an island, he is actually a powerful pirate leader. When dealing with his enemies, Zhang Zhongjian must show his strong side to intimidate Xiao Xiao. And the right people, but also give a strong image to your own people.
Being kind and generous to your own people can win people's hearts. Strength and kindness coexist, and fierceness and gentleness coexist, so he lives a good and comfortable life.
Before there was the East China Sea Fleet
_(:з ∠)_
Recalling that those around him who were clamoring after him were beaten like thieves by the East China Sea Fleet, if it weren't for the fact that his island was relatively secluded and the waterway was difficult to navigate, plus he wanted to restrain his subordinates from becoming enemies of the Tang Dynasty, they might have been beaten by the East China Sea Fleet long ago. It was bulldozed.
"Well, His Majesty the Holy Emperor Mingzun has a really good character. Can you please arrange to meet or tell me about surrendering or something unknown?"
Zhang Zhongjian wanted to save face. Li Jing knew that he had been a proud man for most of his life. It would not be easy for him to suddenly humble himself.
Besides, Zhang Zhongjian had already mentioned this, so he was convinced.
"Brother, I'll give it a try, but I can't guarantee how His Majesty will arrange for you. After all, I can't keep up with His Majesty's thoughts right now. At most, I just deal with government affairs."
Zhang Zhongjian seemed to have thought of something, and asked Li Jing: "Did Tubo, the Western Regions, and those small countries in the south really surrender?"
Li Jing: "All military and political power must be taken back, their systems must be abolished and replaced by the laws of the Tang Dynasty, their local languages must be abolished using Chinese as the lingua franca, and religious beliefs must also be unified. There can only be one within the Tang Dynasty. Faith, that is His Majesty the Mingzun Holy Emperor.”
Scratching his beard, Zhang Zhongjian, the bearded man, understood in his heart that the earth emperor he made was in a similar situation. The Ming Zun Holy Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was indeed great.
After narrating the official business, the three of them began to talk about home affairs. This conversation lasted until midnight...
The three of them didn't know that in the royal study room, Li Mingda hadn't woken up early in the morning, and the internal guards had sent him intelligence. Li Jing, Hongfu Nu, and a bearded man talked all night long, suspecting that it was their eldest brother Feng Chen. Zhang Zhongjian, one of the three heroes.
And according to the other party's conversation, Li Jing is coming to find him.
Bearded guest?
Li Mingda squinted his eyes and looked at the world map, focusing on a certain area.
