Chapter 1180: What about the Right Prime Minister’s proposal?
The emperor was stunned, and even the four ministers around him, especially Wei Gong, were unexpectedly surprised.
The emperor is not stupid. He knows very well how capable Ji Qi is. He does not expect Ji Qi to become a wise king. He only hopes that he will continue Dayong peacefully and have more children.
Over the years, he has radically revised the law in the hope of ruling the country by law and making Dayong orderly and stable. The purpose of appointing young talents like Linze who do not have a prominent family background is to restrain aristocratic families and to reserve people for the prince.
; And if you have already appointed Duke Wei's legitimate daughter as your legal wife for the crown prince, why don't you want to use the power of the Wei family to protect the crown prince's accession to the throne?
Everything he did was to pave the way for the prince!
Unfortunately, the prince really doesn't live up to expectations.
But no matter how unsatisfactory he was, he was also his son, the prince he had appointed, and how could he be willing to let the prince take risks on something as dangerous as going to the front lines to control floods?
Wei Gongze gave Lin Ze a meaningful look. He had already guessed Lin Ze's purpose in doing this.
Linze continued: "In the past, Prince Taijia of the Shang Dynasty was young and ignorant. Yi Yin patiently taught him, and Taijia repented and eventually became a wise king. The absurd things His Highness the Prince did were just because he had not experienced the world and had not experienced many hardships. So-called
'The edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold.' To stand upright, a man needs to go through a lot of experience."
Linze turned sideways, bowed to Duke Wei, and said respectfully: "What Duke Wei just said is very reasonable. If you do something wrong, you should indeed be punished, but you should educate the prince more so that he can understand the responsibilities of a prince. The Yellow River is flooded,
This is Dayong's crisis, but it is also a turning point. If I can forge a future wise king in the flood, it will be my Dayong's good fortune."
Linze raised his hand to the emperor and said, "Although I am not Yi Yin, I dare not stand shoulder to shoulder with the sages, but I am willing to devote my whole life to the great Yong, and I hope your majesty will fulfill my wish."
The emperor frowned and thought.
Linze's words were what he had been reflecting on in the past few days: Did he treat the prince too pampering? From childhood to adulthood, the prince had always had everything going smoothly, not to mention hardship, even grievances. This was how he developed into a prince.
He doesn't know the heights of the world and has a willful and reckless temperament.
The prince - indeed needs to go through a lot of hardships. What's more, if the prince really makes a great contribution to controlling the water, he can naturally be punished and he can justifiably be given a lighter sentence. Today's headache will no longer exist.
It can be considered as killing two birds with one stone.
If the flood control fails - it will not fail. He believes in Linze's ability, and since it is related to the survival of Dayong, he will definitely devote all his country's efforts to give the prince and Linze the greatest help.
The emperor, who has always been somewhat indecisive, rarely said "long-term plan" this time, but asked the three princes and the left prime minister: "What do you think of the right prime minister's proposal?"
The question was "What do you think?", but the implication was "I think the right prime minister's proposal is very good."
Duke Zhao was always tactful, so he immediately replied: "The right prime minister has great foresight and his proposal is very good. What do you think, Duke Wei?"
After saying that, he gave a meaningful look: If you offend your majesty, everyone will not be able to eat and walk around. Brother, think twice!
