The emperor is the supreme person in the world, commanding the Nine Provinces and Eight Deserts, raising billions of people, and is the only person in the world who does whatever he wants. Therefore, for the most respected chair in the world, fathers and sons and brothers are often and countless, which is in line with Xunzi's view that "human nature is evil."

But everything is not absolute. Even a powerful emperor like Emperor Taizong would not make decisions in everything when he was in charge of government affairs. For example, the strong order - the Mirror of the Eternal People - Wei Zheng, and the hereditary governor system, such power is usually called prime ministerial power.

Smart emperors and ministers will rack their brains to find a balance when the power of the monarch and ministers conflicts, so that the political situation of the country will be stable and will not affect the national economy and people's livelihood and will damage national strength.

But Li Xian and Pei Yan were obviously not like this. In order for Wei Xuanzhen to be promoted to Shizhong, neither of them was willing to give in, and put Liu Qixian, Guo Zhengyi, and Liu Huizhi next to him in an embarrassing situation.

It’s neither right to persuade, nor is it not to persuade, and they don’t know what to do when they are still there. They are not as big as Wei Xuanzhen’s heart and are not afraid of big things when watching the fun.

"I say it again, I am the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the father of all people. Who would I use as prime minister? That was only a matter of one year.

Pei Zilong, don’t say that I didn’t remind you, what is the consequence of disobeying the imperial edict? When the emperor is angry, he will be buried in a million corpses and bleeding thousands of miles. The Pei family in Hedong will disappear from the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Do you understand?"

"Your Majesty, if the emperor wants his minister to die, he has to die. I am grateful to the former emperor for his kindness. I joined the army from Sicang, and was prosecuted to the prime minister. I also gave the will to be the Minister of the Central Secretariat and the Assistant Master. I have already put my personal life and death aside.

All 185 of the old ministers' houses are in Dong Luoyang. If Your Majesty only prosecuted and eliminated the minor officials from other relatives and officials as prime ministers and destroyed the imperial court's official appointment system, then he would cut off the whole family of the old ministers. In the nineteenth place, the old ministers would have to go to Emperor Taizong to talk to the late emperor to let them know how wise the descendants of the Li family were."

The Buddha still has three tempers, not to mention that Li Xian, the emperor, was so agitated by Pei Yan. He slapped the imperial case heavily, pointed at Pei Yan and shouted: "Is the prime minister very rare? Even if I give the world to Wei Xuanzhen, it's nothing, let alone a mere servant. You can say something happy, will the Secretariat receive the order?"

As soon as Li Xian said these heart-killing words, Pei Yan and others quickly knelt down on the ground, and asked the emperor to temporarily quit the anger of thunder, especially Pei Yan. After hearing the emperor's angry words, he felt even more frightened.

Then he sued him and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Xuanzhen, the governor, has to take office. Whether he can manage a state is a problem, not to mention that the province is the center of the country. If you want to use people improperly, it will be a loss to the country.

Besides, the court has never had such a precedent. It is said that even though the father died, the filial son did not change his ambition for three years. Before the bones of the late emperor were cold, His Majesty changed the family rules of the ancestors without authorization. This is a shame!”

After saying that, Pei Yan kowtowed three times, and kept sighing in his heart: Hey, why are the descendants of the Li family becoming like this? Why can’t they see the heroic martial arts of Emperor Taizong and the wisdom of Emperor Gaozong at all in him?

Can such emotional people bear the burden of the Tang Dynasty even when they become adults? After the third generation of the Tang Dynasty, the heroine Wu, would the Tang Dynasty really die in three lifetimes?

Seeing that the emperor did not reply, the situation was in a deadlock. The Secretariat and the Empress Dowager's confidant Liu Huizhi knelt forward and took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, Pei Xiangzhi's words are really good at planning the country.

But the matter involves relatives, which are both state affairs and family affairs. So whether Wei Xuanzhen was promoted to the Shizhong, did he ask the Empress Dowager first? After all, the imperial edict of the late emperor said that the Empress Dowager would take charge of military and national affairs, and appointing such high-ranking officials is a major event in the court,"

As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Zhengyi quickly answered the words: "Your Majesty, what Pei Xiang and Liu Sheren said is right. The candidates for changing the prime minister have always been a major event in the court. You should not act irresponsibly. It is better to let it go for the time being, consider it carefully, and listen to opinions from other aspects before saying it."

Crack, crackle, seeing that his golden words became a stinking bullshit in the ears of his ministers, Li Xian still kept the chapter on the imperial desk, stared at his eyes, and shouted: "In the eyes of you, there is only the queen mother. The facts have been asked about the queen mother, so what's the use of me, the emperor!

Since you look down on me and do not obey the order, then go to the Empress Dowager to ask for the order, should you let Wei Xuanzhen be the attendant, or should I give him this country? Choose one! Get out of here! Get out of here!" After saying that, he threw the teacup on the case to the ground, roaring hysterically, shocking Pei Yan and others, and they rolled out and crawled out, panicking so much that they didn't even have the etiquette.

After leaving the hall, Liu Huizhi pulled Pei Yan aside and whispered: "Pei Xiang, Your Majesty was bewitched by Wei to the point of making the country. This is a danger to the country. As the minister who entrusts the orphanage, how can the Prime Minister sit still and ignore it!"

Alas, after sighing, Pei Yan put his head on his head and replied: "Ximei, you have also seen that in order to maintain the system, I have already made a red face with His Majesty, but I still cannot change His Majesty's holy intention. What else can I do? If I force him again, I will lose the way of a minister!"

"Prince, your loyalty to the Tang Dynasty is a sign of heaven and earth. If you can't trust your loyalty, how could the late emperor appointed you as the minister of the regent? Since we can't persuade you, we can only ask the empress dowager to tell you. You can't really let him give the country to the Wei family!" As he said, Liu Huiyi pulled him back.

"Ximei, Ximei, it is not appropriate to report this to the Queen Mother. Isn't this harmful to Your Majesty?"

"The country is about to perish, and there is no need to care about those things. Will the prime minister want to see the cheaper country that Emperor Taizong has obtained from hundreds of battles? Let's go!" Under Liu Huizhi's drag, Pei Yan reluctantly followed him to meet Empress Wu.

Although many excessive and add fuel to the fire is what Liu Huizhi said, there are only Empress Wu, and Liu Huizhi in the hall, but who can prove that it was not what he said? Even if Pei Yan jumped into the Yellow River, he would not be able to clear his suspicion of harming the emperor.

But Pei Yan never thought that it was because of such a ridiculous incident of discussing personal affairs and nobles and being appointed as officials by foreign relatives, which caused a bloody storm in the Tang Dynasty, not only cheating the emperor, but also harming the Tang Dynasty. At the same time, it also allowed him to fully see the ambition of Empress Wu. She not only wanted to control the emperor, but also imitated Lu and Dou.
