It’s okay to say that Wan Xuandao became confused after drinking!

But why does Wei Zheng feel that he is drunk?

How did an ordinary lieutenant general of Zuo Wuhou suddenly transform into the second son of a saint?

"Xuancheng! I forgot to tell you. Qianfan is my second son, Li Kuan. He was killed by an adulterer and ended up living in the world."

While talking, he also pointed to the birthmark on Du Jing's arm to show it to Wei Zheng, proving that he was Li Kuan, King of Chu, and his lost and found son.

But this did not convince Wei Zheng: "Your Majesty, the blood of the Tian family is related to the country and cannot be confused! You can't lose your sense of proportion just because of a birthmark!"

"What if someone has ulterior motives and uses some strategy? This will shake the foundation of the country."

Wan Xuandao, who was originally grinning from ear to ear, also lowered his face at this time: "Wei Zheng, Your Majesty doesn't recognize his son, but you can distinguish the true from the false?"

"Tell me, what are your intentions?"

But Wei Zheng didn't care about Wan Xuandao's disgusting face. Instead, he held his hands and said expressionlessly. There were many cases of pretending to be relatives of the emperor in the past dynasties. Before Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty returned to the palace, there were many scoundrels using his name.

The account is used to deceive people.

Du Jing, as the lieutenant general of Youyi Mansion, led the inspection and arrests. He got some palace secrets and pretended to be the prince in an attempt to gain undue wealth. It is unknown.

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows. Although he was unhappy, in order to let Wei Zheng bear witness, he asked patiently: "Then how do you think it can be verified?"

Wei Zheng, who had just suffered a humiliation in the Wei King's marriage incident, was about to re-establish his right to speak and consolidate his position.

He thought that birthmarks were all very similar. There were many people with birthmarks on their arms. Are they all kings of Chu? At the very least, a blood test was required. After passing this first test, he could ask about old things again. If he could answer them one by one,

, shall prevail.

"Okay, I will make you convinced today!" After saying this, he ordered the imperial physician Jin Fu to take a bowl of blood to identify his relatives, so that Zheng Guogong could take a good look and testify to his son.

Jin Fu dipped two drops of blood on Du Jing's wound with a silver needle and put it into a bowl. Then he made a confession, pricked the emperor's finger, and also took two drops of blood.

Finally, he respectfully placed the bowl in front of the emperor, stepped back with a respectful voice, picked up the mulberry thread, and carefully sutured Du Jing's wound.

Li Shimin and his son knew it well, and of course they didn't care. The most nervous ones were Wei Zheng and Wan Xuandao, both of whom focused on the bowl and stared at it without blinking.

When the blood merged, Wan Xuandao clapped his hands excitedly and said jokingly: "Old man Wei, you lost, and you still haven't apologized to His Majesty and the King of Chu!"

Li Shimin also patted Yin Ji and scolded Wan Xuan: "Zheng Guogong is the prime minister of the dynasty, and you talk to him like this? Go down, you have no rules!"

After drinking away Wan Xuandao, Li Shimin said to Wei Zheng again: "Xuancheng, this must be right!"

Seeing that Wei Zheng was silent, Li Shimin called Du Jing again, no, he should be called Li Kuan now, and asked him to talk about his childhood. With Zheng Guogong proving his identity, no one dared to question his identity.

Normally, if Wei Zheng said this, Li Kuan wouldn't care. After all, officialdom is like this. Either you step on me, or I step on you. It has nothing to do with reason, but only interests.

But he had just fought a bloody battle, and the blood in his heart was not extinguished, and the wound was still bleeding. Moreover, the emperor's actions completely disrupted his plan, and he was very upset.

So, taking advantage of the opportunity given by the emperor to let him speak, he immediately replied: "Yes, Zheng Guogong is the most impartial and straightforward person. With his proof, there is no need to worry about being accused of pretending to be the prince."

There were so many things that happened when he was a child. Li Kuan thought about it and picked up something related to Wei Zheng and said: "When I was a child, I and the prince had a fight with Li Chengdao. Zheng Road happened to be passing by, so he stepped forward and pulled us apart.

”

"Mr. Zheng didn't even look at me or the prince. His eyes were full of Li Chengdao, the eldest son of the East Palace. Not only did he wipe his face considerately, but he also gave Li Chengdao the pastry rewarded by his uncle."

"Children are all greedy. I remember the prince was drooling, but in the end he didn't even get the scumbag."

"Oh, that's right! After appeasing his good student, Zheng Gong also taught the two of us seriously that the heaven and the earth are orderly, the country is systematic, and the superiority and inferiority are orderly. Since the eldest son is not the legitimate grandson, we must know how to advance and retreat, regardless of right and wrong.

Li Chengdao used the strong to bully the weak."

Haha, Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng with interest: "Xuancheng, is there still such a thing?"

Wei Zheng was so embarrassed that he couldn't tell the truth. Only a few people involved knew about this matter, so they could naturally prove Li Kuan's identity. But later, others asked Wei Zheng how to judge the authenticity of the King of Chu.

How should he answer!

Moreover, he can't deny it, because if he denies it, Li Kuan will bring out more past events to prove his identity, and then he will change from admonishing his critics to having ulterior motives.

"Returning to Your Majesty, this happened. Old minister, I am ashamed!" As he spoke, he also bowed to Li Kuan: "Your Highness, please punish me for the crime of recklessness!"

The crime of punishing the prime minister?

Isn't that a joke? Not to mention that Li Kuan has no power, even if it is because of the emperor's painstaking efforts, he has to be generous.

Xu helped him and said with a smile: "My arm is still in the hands of Imperial Physician Jin. I can't help you. Don't be offended, Mr. Zheng!"

The prince did not remember the faults of the villain, so Wei Zheng, who was touched by his nose, could only wave his hands repeatedly and thank His Highness for his magnanimity.

"Xuancheng is also thinking about Tianjia Xueyin wholeheartedly. Qianfan, you must not neglect Duke Zheng in the future. You must treat him as a teacher."

After admonishing Li Kuan, Li Shimin asked about the details of the Battle of Songzhou, especially Hou Junji, Zhang Liang's command, and the scene after Li Kuan fell off the cliff.

Hearing that Zhang Liang wanted to quit because his adopted son had suffered too many losses, Li Shimin snorted in dissatisfaction.

Li Kuan also concluded at the right time: "Your Majesty has also led soldiers, and he knows the bad customs in the army. The commander-in-chief of the army always likes to adopt orphans of martyrs and brave men as adopted sons and as minions."

Bad customs? This is not something that can be summed up in just one bad custom. To put it nicely, they are trying to gather their fighting power. If it is worse to say, it is a naked clique.

Li Shimin was an emperor who made his fortune through the army. What he hated most was that the generals in the army formed cliques for personal gain in the name of kinship.

"Xuancheng, I heard that Zhang Liang has more than a hundred adopted sons with names and surnames in the army. Is this true?"

I can’t let my son say it all, and you, the Prime Minister Wei Zheng, can’t just be a listener, you have to express your feelings.

And Wei Zheng couldn't stand this approach. Even if he reported what he heard to the emperor, Zhang Liang not only had a hundred adopted sons, he also had a hundred adopted sons who had retired from the army in Zhuangzi, Chang'an!<

/p>

Of course, Zhang Liang is not the only one who has this kind of thing. Most of the princes in the army are like this, such as Hou Junji. The reason why the Flying Tiger Army he founded can fight is because the officers are all his adopted sons, and father and son soldiers

Well!

After chewing the word "father and son soldier" twice, Li Shimin agreed: "Xuancheng, this word is well used, what a father and son soldier."

"Xuancheng, do you think my ears and eyes are blocked? I don't even know many things!"

Wei Zheng also didn't know what he meant and asked with confusion: "What does your Majesty mean?"
