The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2200
Li Shimin left Dai Zhou's home very angry.

At this time, Fang Xuanling followed closely behind.He caught up with Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was still looking at him very angry at this time.

Their intentions are good, but they end up like this, which is very uncomfortable.

When Fang Xuanling found Li Shimin.

Then he said to Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, we went to Dai Zhou this time to solve the problem. If it is too emotional, to be honest, it is difficult to solve this problem. Your Majesty's behavior just now probably made Dai Zhou very sad. If this continues, , Dai Zhou may leave the court directly."

Li Shimin heard what Fang Xuanling said.

It feels like nothing.

He was still angry at this time.Then he said: "If he wants to leave, let him leave. I don't want to spoil him anymore. I can have as many officials as he wants, so why should I care about his feelings?"

Li Shimin is very angry now.

Li Shimin was talking and didn't want to pay attention to Dai Zhou's feelings.

In other words, if Dai Zhou told him that he wanted to leave the court at this time,

He might agree.

If he agreed, it would be in Dai Zhou's favour.

Even if the fireworks were no longer mentioned, it would be safe to leave the court.

This was a huge loss to the court.Fang Xuanling said.

"Has your Majesty ever thought that if he is allowed to leave the court, it will definitely have some negative effects on our court. Some officials who have been for more than ten years probably have the same thoughts as him. It will reflect his feelings. And like There are only a handful of officials like him who have served Datang for more than 20 years. His departure may chill the hearts of some people! Even if we are eager to retain him, some people still don't understand why he left. Maybe these people will Blaming all faults on the imperial court. If this is done, it will not be very good for the reputation of our imperial court. If this is done, it may cause a huge shock. Some people will say that His Majesty cannot even retain an official. So what? What do you mean?"

Li Shimin listened to Fang Xuanling's words.

Although his words don't sound good, they are true.

But how can I put it, he is still very angry now.All he has to do now is calm down first.

Otherwise, I'm afraid this matter will not be resolved.

Then Li Shimin said: "Then I'll think about it carefully, and then I'll say it again."

"Yes! Your Majesty, you have to think about it carefully. You can't lose the big for the small."

".Okay, I understand. Let me think about it. Let's wait until I figure it out."

After Li Shimin said this, he headed towards Tai Chi Palace.

At this time, Fang Xuanling was in a dilemma!

Originally he was the one who caused this incident, but now he is very embarrassed because of Li Shimin's lack of cooperation.

This made him a little angry.

It would have been nice to have him persuade Dai Zhou not to leave.

However, because of some things about Li Shimin, the conflict between the two intensified. Of course, this conflict was initiated by Li Er.

If Li Er could talk to Dai Zhou calmly, there might be room for him to stay.

This is what Fang Xuanling is thinking.

Now, we can only see what Dai Zhou means.

If Dai Zhou always wanted to leave, then no matter how generous Li Shimin offered him, he would eventually leave.

All this can only happen in the future.Then Suifang Xuanling could only sigh and go back directly.

In fact, he also had such an idea in his mind.

Same idea as Dai Zhou.

Why is he working so hard?
If Dai Zhou could leave Li Shimin, or he wanted to go into seclusion and enjoy his life.It is impossible to go back to my hometown, cultivate the land, raise flowers, and walk around with birds.

At this time, the more Fang Xuanling thought about it, the more incredible it became, because he was already approaching Dai Zhou.Because Dai Zhou opened his eyes, Fang Xuanling felt that maybe she could be like him.

But he is not the only one like this, there are many others like this.

This was Dai Zhou's beginning.

And it got off to a bad start.

Perhaps there are many officials who have the same idea as Fang Xuanling.

This is not a good thing for the court.

For Li Shimin, it made him even more depressed.

Because what happens next may cause Li Shimin to lose more officials.

These officials may leave Li Shimin one by one.

Of course, judging from the current situation, it may not be possible.

It's possible that Li Shimin thought of a solution.

And it wasn't until Fang Xuanling returned.He stayed at home, and the more he thought about it, the stranger it became.

Before he could sit down, the more he thought about it, the more something was wrong.

So, he went to Dai Zhou's home again. Today he must figure out some things.Otherwise, he would have trouble sleeping and eating.

So he went to Dai Zhou's home again.When he went to Dai Zhou's home, he found no trace of Dai Zhou.

I asked his servant.

They all said: The master has gone out.It's probably time to head to the tenement building.

Dai Zhou must have something to do when he went to the Tanglou at this time, so Fang Xuanling said goodbye to them and went to the Tanglou.

This journey made him think about a lot of things.

When he arrived at the Tanglou, he vaguely heard the conversation between Wei Zheng and Dai Zhou.

At this time, Wei Zheng said: "His Majesty is here to see you? Do you have any idea of ​​staying in the court?"

Dai Zhou sighed.

"I have no idea. At this time, I already feel a little frustrated. His Majesty was not like this in the past. He would never get angry with me. But this time? He got angry with me in front of my family. It made me very uncomfortable. At the same time, it also made me more determined to leave the imperial court!"

"It's all up to you. If you feel you really can't bear it, then go into the palace now and explain to His Majesty, and then leave." Wei Zheng advised.

But he did not say that Shengtang Group would take Dai Zhou in.

Because this matter must be kept secret and carried out secretly.

Don't be too superficial.

"Let's wait until the fireworks issue is dealt with. Leaving now doesn't seem to be a good choice." Dai Zhou still wanted to get things done.

"This is up to you. All the choices are yours. We can only provide some suggestions. Do you understand?"

"I know! By the way, how far is the fireworks thing going now?"

When Fang Xuanling heard this, it turned out that Dai Zhou came to see Wei Zheng this time because of the fireworks.

And what was the reason for talking about Li Shimin with Wei Zheng?
Because Wei Zheng asked, he said it.

"Don't worry about the fireworks, they will be taken care of soon."

Fang Xuanling was listening.

All of this was just as he had guessed, because of Li Shimin's insistence.

This accelerated Dai Zhou's plan to leave.

Now that I think of leaving, there is really nothing I can do about it.

Just as the two were still chatting, someone called out Fang Xuanling's name.

"My lord, what are you doing?"

Fang Xuanling was a little embarrassed.

At the same time, he realized that he had been exposed.So he said loudly: "I came here to see Wei Zheng for something, please let me know!"

"Oh, that's it, Wei Zheng is inside now, please come in!"

"It's work!"

So he was invited inside.

At this time, both Wei Zheng and Dai Zhouyang saw him.

At the same time, I was wondering, what was he doing here?
Regarding his arrival, the two of them were not in a good mood.

Why?Because Fang Xuanling was on Li Shimin's side.

Just like Dai Zhou stood with Li Shimin at that time.

At that time, Dai Zhou would always side with Li Shimin no matter what happened.

In fact, Dai Zhou had been thinking about leaving the court a few years ago, but he never had the chance. Now that he has the chance, he will naturally leave.

And the relationship with Li Shimin seems to have become bad.

Then you have to leave.

If he leaves, he will have a second spring.

Regarding Fang Xuanling's arrival.

But the two of them were very shrewd.This guy must be speaking for Li Shimin, because in their opinion, Fang Xuanling and Li Shimin are wearing the same pants.So what?In their opinion, Fang Xuanling must have wanted to persuade Dai Zhou to return to the court.

Fang Xuanling also felt a little embarrassed when she saw the two of them.

Soon, he regained his composure.

"So Dai Zhou is here. I searched for you at home for a long time last year but couldn't find you. Your family said you came to the tenement house, so I came over here to have a look. I really didn't expect you to be here."

"Yes, Duke, what can you do?"

"Yes! Can I talk further if you have something?"

Fang Xuanling said immediately.

He wanted to talk to Dai Zhou in private.

"No need, just say what you have to say, I'm listening. And there are no outsiders here."

"Okay then! I think you should also know about some of His Majesty's words and deeds just now. This is how he is. Sometimes when his temper comes, no one can stop him!"

"So are you speaking for him? Or is he asking you to come over and talk to me about these things?"

Dai Zhou said very angry.

Fang Xuanling knew that it was a bit difficult for him this time.

"Oh, no, I think I came here myself. Let's not be too rigid about some things. It's not good for us."

"I have never felt that there was anything wrong with this. What I want to say is that I have strengthened my determination. It has nothing to do with whoever takes this position."

"Don't say that. There must be some room for negotiation."

"Is there anything else to discuss?"

"Stop speaking so absolutely."

"If I stay in a place I don't like to stay, what's the point? I hope you won't try to persuade me. There are some things I want to tell you. Really! After I jumped out, I found that in the court for Officials are like frogs at the bottom of a well. They generally cannot see the whole society. But if you step out, it will feel different."

"Dai Zhou! Don't talk so much yet. I will have a good chat with His Majesty. If you need anything, just tell me. I will definitely satisfy you as much as possible."

Fang Xuanling doesn't want to give up yet.

Dai Zhou sighed.

"No need. Let's not do it like this. Goodbye in the world. I don't want to work so hard."

"No, please don't do this. There must be a better way to deal with it, right?"

"Okay, let's not talk so much. If you have nothing else to do, go back first. I still have some things to talk to Wei Zheng."

Dai Zhou said this, making Fang Xuanling feel very embarrassed.

He had never been like this.

But here in Daizhou, he felt very uncomfortable.

The root of the problem is Li Shimin, but why is he feeling uncomfortable?

Wei Zheng said at this time: "My lord, let's not talk about official business. Since you are here, how about we have a meal together and have a good chat?"

Regarding Wei Zheng's retention.

Fang Xuanling said: "Okay, let's sit down and talk!"

Wei Zheng added: "You can't mention His Majesty's decision to send Dai Zhou back again, because that will make people uncomfortable! Do you understand?"

Fang Xuanling understood Wei Zheng's words.

He was thinking about Dai Zhou.

"I know!"

"Okay, I'll have someone prepare a table of wine and food, and then we'll have a good meal."

So, the three of them gathered together to have a meal.

This isn't the first time they've gotten together, either.

They used to eat together often, but Wei Zheng was still in the court at that time and was doing court work.

All three of them were officials in the same dynasty.

Now that Wei Zheng has jumped out, his mentality has become different.

Dai Zhou will also jump out.

Only Fang Xuanling was still working in the court.

The three of them talked happily, and they didn't leave until eight or nine o'clock in the evening.

After Fang Xuanling left, his mood changed somewhat.

Because after chatting with Wei Zheng a lot, he felt some changes.The first thing that changed was his mood about whether to stay in the court.

If he is not in the court, what will he do?
What's so good about staying in the court?
Nothing but power.

The current power is of no use at all.

It also doesn't play any useful role.

Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether you feel like staying or not.

Moreover, Li Shimin's performance also made Fang Xuanling feel a little disappointed.

Perhaps, he was influenced by Wei Zheng and others and tried to leave the court.

One day, it will really break out. One day, like Dai Zhou, he will talk to Li Shimin about leaving.

But now Li Shimin still doesn't know their changes.

At this time, Li Shimin had returned to the palace.

Queen Changsun persuaded him in his ear.

"Your Majesty, those ministers are all old. It's time for them to leave the court and enjoy their old life. We also need to recruit more new generations to support them."

But Li Shimin said: "The new forces, they have not made any achievements, how do they know that the country is not easy! Wine is good when you are old, and officials are good when they are old. I still don't want to let Dai Zhou leave!"

"But if he insists on leaving, Your Majesty can't influence him, right?"

"Let's not talk about this anymore! Maybe I can find the problem and let him think about it carefully. Maybe he will change his mind."

Li Shimin is so confident.

Dai Zhou's departure has become a foregone conclusion, and he also feels that Dai Zhou will come back.
