After all, for a prince named Li Yuanji, as long as he was right in principle, his mistakes in other places could be ignored. They were not worthy of censure, and there was no way to bring them to court for public comment.
"Wei Zheng, do you know why I invited you here?"
Li Yuanji ordered someone to serve Wei Zheng a cup of tea soup and himself a cup of tea. While tasting the tea, he asked with a smile.
Li Yuanji has never been polite to his own people. He is still quite polite to those who have not yet become his own people and those who are about to become his own people.
This is called Corporal Li Xian.
Wei Zheng did not touch the tea cup on the low table and shook his head without knowing why.
Li Yuanji did not betray Wei Zheng and said straight to the point: "I am going to let you appease the military officials under my second brother. What do you think?"
Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment and said righteously: "They are originally my ministers of the Tang Dynasty, why do they need to recruit them?"
There is nothing wrong with what I say.
But Li Yuanji heard the rejection in it, so he smiled and said: "That being said, they are unwilling to listen to me now, so naturally they need your help to talk about Xiang Yier."
Wei Zheng cupped his hands and said sternly: "Your Majesty, when a piece of paper is handed down, who dares not to obey it? Why do you need me to go and explain the matter?"
】
Li Yuanji took a deep breath, sighed again and said: "Wei Zheng, you are a smart man, you must understand what I mean, why do you need to talk to me here?"
Wei Zheng was silent for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I am not talking to His Highness in an official manner. It's just that I have lost all my official positions. Now I only have an empty title and can still receive a little salary. I am unable to take on this important task. Your Highness, please find someone else." .”
Li Yuanji slowly leaned against the circle behind him and said, "You don't have to tell me these lies anymore. Just tell me why you are willing to go?"
Wei Zheng was silent for another moment, then stared at Li Yuanji intently and said, "I would like to see His Highness the Crown Prince. If I can confirm that His Highness the Crown Prince is intact, I can go on behalf of His Highness."
Li Yuanji was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Wei Zheng would still be thinking about Li Jiancheng until now.
After all, from the end of the palace coup to the present, Li Shimin's people are still waiting and watching, still waiting for Li Shimin to come out and lead them to seize the throne again, while Li Jiancheng's people have already fallen into disarray.
Wei Zheng is still thinking about Li Jiancheng's safety, which is really rare.
Although Wei Zheng often made suggestions for Li Jiancheng to harm his younger brother when he was looking for things for Li Jiancheng, they were each their own masters.
Judging from historical records and what Li Yuanji saw after arriving in the Tang Dynasty, when Wei Zheng was under Li Jiancheng, he really did everything a counselor should do. He firmly supported Li Jiancheng in eradicating Li Shimin, and for this Sparing no effort in planning.
After the Xuanwumen Incident in history, Wei Zheng became Li Shimin's minister and conscientiously fulfilled his duty as a minister for Li Shimin.
It can be said that he may have loyalty, but the object of his loyalty is definitely not to a certain person.
But his integrity as a minister is quite strong.
Stay in your position, do your job, and do your best to do your best.
In the end, it also left a reputation that will last forever.
As for why Li Shimin dug up his grave, there was controversy in history, but it will not happen now, so there is no need to delve into it.
So from listening to history and Li Yuanji's own understanding, Wei Zheng may not be a very loyal minister, but he is definitely a very capable official.
It's just that this official is born in the year of the Horse, and he is also a very hot-tempered Horse.
Only by subduing him can we control him.
"That's it?"
Li Yuanji stared at Wei Zheng with interest.
Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment, then showed a rare forced smile, "You won't agree to my other conditions."
Li Yuanji laughed and said: "Assuming you have seen clearly, if you propose other conditions, I may not necessarily agree to it."
Wei Zheng forced a smile and said, "So, do you agree to my condition?"
Li Yuanji nodded and said, "Not only that, but I can also make you one more condition?"
Wei Zheng was stunned again.
Happiness came so suddenly that he couldn't believe it.
Li Yuanji continued: "I can also allow you to go to the East Palace to visit my eldest sister-in-law, and then tell my elder brother some of my eldest sister-in-law's current situation."
Wei Zheng immediately understood the meaning of Li Yuanji's arrangement.
He immediately stood up quickly, bowed deeply to Li Yuanji and said, "Your Highness is a noble righteous man, and no minister dares to disobey you."
Li Yuanji smiled and sighed: "You also know that during the turmoil in the palace, all the children in my eldest brother's palace were killed, and now the only one left is the one in my eldest sister-in-law's belly.
But my eldest sister-in-law spends the whole day weeping and not thinking about food or tea, which is extremely detrimental to the fetus in her belly.
It’s not good for me to go see her at this time, lest rumors spread to the government and the public.
Invite the princess to see her. Although she did, she said nothing after seeing her.
The princess and I were very worried about her. The princess had three meals a day ready and immediately sent someone to deliver them to her.
I just went to see my eldest brother and told him about my eldest sister-in-law's current situation. I wanted to see what he had to say to my eldest sister-in-law.
But he only cared about fighting with me and my second brother, and didn't take my eldest sister-in-law into consideration at all.
So if you go to see my elder brother this time, you can help me handle this matter."
Wei Zheng stood there blankly, not expecting that there was such a complicated inner story in this matter.
He was deeply baffled that Li Yuanji cared about the safety of Zheng Guanyin and the safety of the child in Zheng Guanyin's belly.
In his impression, those in power are very ruthless in this kind of matter. If they can eradicate the problem, they will eradicate it without leaving any consequences.
The kindness shown by Li Yuanji was completely different from other people in power, which gave him a new understanding of Li Yuanji.
"Does Your Highness really care about His Highness the Crown Princess?"
Wei Zheng couldn't help but ask.
Li Yuanji nodded without hesitation and said: "Of course, the grudges and grudges between our men's families should not involve women and children, let alone let women and children suffer.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I may use women and children to scare and threaten you, but I will not really do anything to women and children.
After all, there has been too much blood during this turmoil in the palace, and I don't want any more blood to be shed.
Especially the blood of one of our own."
Wei Zheng solemnly shouted: "Your Highness is righteous..."
After he finished shouting, Wei Zheng said seriously: "Since Your Highness really cares about His Highness the Crown Princess, why not let His Highness the Crown Prince come out to reunite with her?"
Li Yuanji laughed and nodded to Wei Zheng: "You, you, please stop playing tricks on me like this. I'm not afraid to tell you that I will let my eldest brother out, but it will definitely not be now.
I guess you don’t want to see another war between our brothers, right?”
Wei Zheng opened his mouth, but had nothing to say.
In his heart, he actually didn't care that the three Li Yuanji brothers were fighting again. If he had cared, he wouldn't have encouraged Li Jiancheng to get rid of Li Shimin.
But whether you can think of such a thing or say it, if you say it, it would be treason.
Anyone who is caught by Kacha is a minor offender, and none of the three tribes of Yi are unjustly accused.
"Go to see my eldest sister-in-law quickly. After meeting my eldest sister-in-law, go to see my elder brother. I will ask someone to let you go."
When Li Yuanji saw that Wei Zheng was silent, he waved his hand to Wei Zheng, indicating that Wei Zheng could go down.
As for whether Wei Zheng would be playing tricks during this period, Li Yuanji didn't care at all.
The stalls in the East Palace have been eaten up by him now. Even if Li Jiancheng and Wei Zheng come up with some clothing and belt edicts, they can't make a big splash.
After all, Li Yuan is still alive and still the emperor of Tang Dynasty.
Any clothing edict issued by Li Jiancheng will be ignored after Li Yuan comes forward.
So there's nothing to worry about.
After Wei Zheng left, the sky became dark, and Li Yuanji did not stay in the Zhaode Hall for long. He ordered the eunuchs guarding in front of the hall to wait for the documents that had been approved on the Anli Gate to be delivered, and then sent them directly to the three provinces before driving back. Went to Wude Hall.
A sea tower city.
Early the next morning, when Li Yuanji rushed to Zhaode Hall, he saw Feng Lun, Yu Wenbao, and Li Shentong standing at the entrance of the hall.
Li Shentong was also holding a dead head in his hand.
Feng Lun dragged Yu Wenbao to complain, because Yu Wenbao had done a lot of crazy things to Feng Lun, Yu Shinan, Kong Yingda and others in just half a day, which made them mad.
Li Shentong, on the other hand, came to Li Yuanji to solve the problem.
"I will see you, Your Highness..."
Li Yuanji arrived at the entrance of the palace, and the three of them bowed together and saluted.
Li Yuanji nodded, and while walking into the hall, he said: "Sit down in the hall and talk."
Feng Lun snorted coldly at Yu Wenbao and entered the Zhaode Hall with a straight face. Yu Wenbao followed him into the hall nonchalantly.
Li Shentong ordered someone to put the dead head in his hand into a box, then cleaned it up before entering Zhaode Hall.
After the three of them found a place to sit down, Li Yuanji sat on the couch in the palace and slowly asked: "What happened? Why did Duke Feng come here with Yu Wenbao? Why did Uncle Wang carry a bag?"
A head?”
Feng Lun snorted coldly and said: "Yu Wenbao caused trouble in the residence of the ministers and others, so I brought him here to ask His Highness to seek justice."
Li Yuanji nodded, looked at Yu Wenbao and said, "What did you do in someone else's mansion, so angry that the prince wanted to seek justice from me?"
Yu Wenbao grinned and said, "I didn't do much. I just played a few games of dice with Feng Lun's silly son and won half of Feng's family property."
When Feng Lun heard this, he glared at Yu Wenbao angrily and said, "Are you playing dice? You were robbing him openly!"
Yu Wenbao put away his smile and retorted unceremoniously: "Even if I robbed him openly, it was your son who came to the door on his own initiative, and I didn't force him to play with you.
If you can't afford to lose, you can just say it, and I can pretend that nothing happened.
But from now on, you have to claim that you were born by me."
Feng Lun was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, and shouted angrily: "Do you dare to tell His Highness King Qi that you were playing with my son?"
Yu Wenbao raised his neck and said, "Why don't you dare? Isn't it your youngest son?"
When Li Yuanji heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. If he remembered correctly, Feng Lun's youngest son was only eight years old now.
Yu Wenbao induced an eight-year-old child to play dice with him. He probably didn't care whether he could win or what he could win, and he had no hope.
After all, if an eight-year-old child has enough money and what kind of decisions he can make, the things he promises will definitely not count.
Yu Wenbao was just disgusting, and Feng Lun was obviously disgusted.
Otherwise, we wouldn’t have made a fuss to Zhaode Hall.
