Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2837 questioning before the imperial court
Gao Kan poured water to make tea himself, put the hot tea on the coffee table, and then went out.

Only Fang Jun and Wang De were left in the big tent.

Fang Jun poured the tea from the pot himself, and said with a smile, "Chairman, drink a cup of hot tea to get rid of the cold."

Wang Dedao: "The weather is really cold. Fortunately, there have been fewer refugees in the past two years. Otherwise, I don't know how many people will freeze to death overnight."

Holding the teacup and taking a sip, the hot tea flowed down his throat, feeling warm and comfortable, and let out a comfortable breath.

Fang Jun looked at him and asked, "I don't know what orders His Majesty has, but you want to trouble the chief executive to go there himself?"

Wang De put down his teacup, and said: "I have no other explanation, just a rumor, let Erlang come to the palace for you, if you have anything to ask."

Fang Jun's heart tightened suddenly...

If it is an ordinary matter, why does Wang De need to go there in person?
Quickly asked: "I don't know what your Majesty asked?"

Wang De shook his head and said: "Your Majesty didn't say it clearly, how dare this old slave speculate on Sacred Heart?"

Fang Jun was a little stunned.

But I heard Wang De say again: "However, earlier, His Royal Highness Wei Wang had an audience with the palace, and proposed to implore His Majesty to restore the hereditary governor and the feudal state policy... Your Majesty was very annoyed, and he reprimanded and coaxed His Highness Wei Wang. go out."

After saying this, he refused to speak again, just drooped his eyelids and drank tea blindly.

Fang Jun's mind switched.

The national policy of hereditary governor and feudal world was established by His Majesty Li Er not long after he ascended the throne.It's just that before this national policy was implemented, it was jointly opposed by the ministers of the DPRK and China, and it finally fell through.

The royal clans such as King Wu and King Qi, who had been entrusted to various parts of the world, also returned to Chang'an.

What is Li Tai's intention in bringing up the past again at this time?

Looking up at Wang De, this old eunuch is His Majesty Li Er's real confidant. He came over to inform himself at this moment. Obviously, the situation is serious, but sitting here drinking tea, he was calm and silent...

This is to give yourself enough time to think.

If the rest of the Xiaohuangmen came to pass on the emperor's oral instructions, and I hurried to the palace without knowing it, and faced the questioning of His Majesty Li Er suddenly, there might be some omissions, which would lead to serious consequences.

The old eunuch has a heart...

But the old eunuch also had his own principles, and he refused to explain the details, so he had to guess for himself.

The so-called feudal world, of course, is to let the clan and nobles follow the example of the Shang, Zhou and Western Han Dynasties to go to the key places in the world, pass them down from generation to generation, and enfeoff the princes as the country's barriers...

Fang Jun thought for a while, and asked tentatively: "If Guanzhong is prosperous, if it is a feudal world, I am afraid that the masters and kings are not suitable for the barrenness and coldness of the various places..."

Wang De opened his eyes and said with a smile: "The old slave has warmed up. His Majesty is waiting in the palace. Let's go now?"

Fang Jun knew he had guessed right.

The bottom of my heart was inevitably shaken, Li Tai's play was so perfect!

Can't help but give a big praise...

"In this cold weather, it is most suitable to set up a hot pot, a pot of old wine, and three or five close friends to sit and drink. It's a pity that the manager refuses to come to the door. I always feel a little regretful. Today, His Majesty called me, so I dare not neglect. The general manager has nothing to do in his spare time someday, so he must come to find someone, let's have a drink, wouldn't it be nice to learn about the past?"

Wang De then shook his head and said: "Erlang is talented and amazingly talented. This old slave is just an eunuch who has never read a few books. How dare he talk in front of you? What's more, His Majesty is waiting in front of you, and he doesn't have the time In the future, when the old servant is no longer able to serve His Majesty in his dying years, let's drink and have fun with Erlang."

Fang Jun narrowed his eyes, thoughtful.

Wang De raised his head and looked at Fang Jun, then smiled again: "Erlang, don't think too much, it's just that the old servant is His Majesty's close servant, so he must avoid suspicion, and it has nothing to do with you."

Fang Jun thought to himself, what you said is interesting, you came here in person today just to give a word of mouth, don't you need to avoid suspicion?

But he didn't say much, he got up and said: "I'd better go to the kilometer to meet His Majesty first, and then I'll have a personal friendship with the manager when I have time."

Wang De also nodded and said: "It should be so."

After saying that, he stood up, and the two walked out of the big tent together.Wang De came in a chariot, and the chariot was not allowed to enter the camp outside the gate of the camp. They walked together to the gate of the camp. Wang De boarded the chariot with two young eunuchs, and Fang Jun followed with more than ten soldiers on horseback. Afterwards, they followed the city wall all the way around half of Chang'an City, entered the city through the Golden Light Gate, dismounted outside the Chengtian Gate, did not report, and entered the palace together with Wang De.

Arriving outside the Dragon Hall, Wang De asked the servant standing in front of the door: "Is Your Majesty here?"

The waiter said: "I just had lunch, and now I am drinking tea to digest my food."

Wang De turned to Fang Jun and said, "Duke Yue will be later."

Fang Jun nodded, watched Wang De enter lightly, turned around after a while, and said, "Your Majesty summoned the Duke of Yue to have an audience."

The two eyes met, Fang Jun nodded slightly, expressing that he would deal with it carefully, and then walked into the hall.

The earth dragon was scorching hot, and sandalwood was lit again in the hall. Fang Jun, who had just walked in from the freezing weather outside, felt that his whole body was warm and comfortable. Before he arrived at the imperial case, he saw His Majesty Li Er was kneeling and sitting by the window On the carpet, the winter garden scenery outside the bright glass windows is bleak, but it is hard to conceal the wealth and grandeur revealed by the gorgeous clothes.

This is somewhat inconsistent with His Majesty Li Er's previous pursuit of natural and comfortable style...

Fang Jun raised his breath slightly, took two steps forward, bowed to the ground, and said in a respectful voice: "I am here by order to see Your Majesty."

His Majesty Li Er snorted through his nostrils, didn't say any more, just drooped his eyelids, picked up the teacup and took a sip of the hot tea.

"Fu Liu..."

Then he closed his eyes and slowly savored the sweetness of the tea.

Fang Jun could only maintain a posture of bowing to the ground, not daring to get up...

His Majesty Li Er finished his cup of tea and poured another cup himself, as if he completely forgot that there was a person standing in front of him, and began to drink slowly again.

Fang Jun was secretly startled, if the information leaked by Wang De was correct, then His Majesty Li Er should indeed be furious at this moment, and he dared not move even more.

The teapot was small, and the third cup was poured. The tea in the pot was exhausted. His Majesty Li Er drank up the cup, then raised his head and looked at Fang Jun playfully.

Fang Jun was already sweating slightly.

The temperature in the imperial study room was very high, and he was full of energy. In addition, it was too difficult to maintain this posture of bowing to the ground. His muscles and bones were a little sore and unbearable, and he couldn't even breathe smoothly...

His Majesty Li Er put down his teacup, clicked his lips, and asked casually: "Fang Jun, are you guilty?"

Fang Junxin said that you are not talking nonsense?Confessions are lenient and resistance is strict, no one can admit guilt or innocence, besides, you still want to use severe punishment...

"The humble minister is dull, and does not know what crime he has committed."

"Humph!"

His Majesty Li Er snorted angrily, with anger looming in his eyes, and the muscles on his face twitched. He leaned on the coffee table with one hand and asked, "The king of Wei came to admonish and wanted to bring up the matter of the hereditary governor and the feudal world. Bewitched by you?"

This is really a crime that I want to add to the crime, there is no excuse...

Fang Jun slandered in his heart, and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, I know nothing about this, and I have never heard that His Royal Highness Wei Wang has such thoughts."

His Majesty Li Er stared at him, probably in disbelief.

But before he could ask again, Fang Jun continued: "However, if His Royal Highness the King of Wei really consults the opinions of my ministers on this in advance, my ministers will definitely agree."

His Majesty Li Er: ...

motherfucker!

Isn't this pastime for Lao Tzu? !

Immediately angrily said: "Presumptuous! You bastard, you're getting impatient, aren't you?"

Fang Jun had already made all kinds of inferences and calculations on this matter in his mind, and considered all kinds of possibilities and outcomes, so he bit the bullet and said: "Your Majesty is a holy king through the ages, and the holy candle has shined through the ages. He has always been open-minded and brave to accept advice. The hereditary governor and the feudal world are so angry?"

His Majesty Li Er said angrily: "I proposed this matter in the third year of Zhenguan, intending to reward the nobles in the court and the early clan kings, but it has already been refuted by the clan and ministers, and it has become a conclusion. How can it be overdone?" It has been mentioned repeatedly for many years, so where is my prestige?"

Lao Tzu has been admonishing and ruling that this national policy is invalid, but after so many years you mentioned it again, do you still have the emperor in your eyes?

As an emperor, it is natural and necessary to maintain his prestige.

Of course, what His Majesty Li Er thinks in his heart, only he knows...

Fang Jun slightly changed the angle of his waist to relieve the pressure on his waist, then shook his head and said, "Please excuse me for being reckless, I don't agree with your Majesty's words. The so-called time has changed, and the policy of hereditary governors and feudal world did not conform to The national conditions will greatly damage the interests of the empire and affect the long-term stability of the empire. But the current situation is very different from that of the past. His Royal Highness King Wei believes that the hereditary governor and the feudal world can better maintain the peace of the empire, so he proposes to restore this national policy. Why not?"

We are courtiers. The duty of courtiers is to help the king. Are we not allowed to speak?
