Chapter 595 The Way of Being a Minister
Even if this was to suspend the conflict, Li Shimin didn't want to get angry with Changsun Wuji and others, so he simply waved his dragon robe: "Then let's discuss it tomorrow, I am tired, and retreat!"

Li Shimin's enfeoffment system finally ended without a problem amidst opposition from the ruling and opposition parties.

Back in the harem, Li Shimin became more and more angry as he thought about it, so he could only ask the imperial dining room to bring a pot of wine to relieve his worries.

Whenever he was bored, the queen would always appear by his side the first time.It was the same today, the queen brought two cold dishes and a plate of peanuts and put them on Li Shimin's table.

"Your Majesty, you only drink and don't eat. It's not good for your health. You should eat something before drinking."

Li Shimin took a few mouthfuls of food with his chopsticks, and then slapped the chopsticks on the table angrily: "Every one of them is not in line with my heart! I also know that shifting the center of gravity of their family away from Chang'an will make their family's family more difficult. However, as long as they do this, not only will Datang become more stable, but the locality will also benefit from their relocation. Why don’t they understand this!”

Perhaps because he spoke too hastily, Li Shimin couldn't help coughing.

The queen patted Li Shimin on the back to help him calm down, and said: "Originally, a concubine should not talk too much about this kind of important court affairs. But your majesty, have you ever thought that most of the courtiers follow you to conquer the world, and they have made great achievements? How could you be willing to leave Chang'an if you haven't enjoyed your rich life yet?"

Li Shimin nodded: "I know this, but even if I get to the place, can I still treat them badly?"

The queen smiled and said, "Just because you treat them badly doesn't mean your descendants won't! You still don't understand, what they want is to occupy a place in the court forever. But when they get to the place, they don't have this opportunity!"

Li Shimin picked up the chopsticks and wanted to pick up vegetables, but just picked them up, put down the chopsticks, and said depressedly: "I'm still angry!"

He has never been boycotted by courtiers, including his uncle, his most capable subordinate, and his most trusted Leng Feng.

This time, they all stood on the opposite side of themselves.

pissed!

Seeing that the emperor was still panting heavily, the queen said, "Your Majesty, why don't my concubines go to the eldest brother's house and the Leng residence?"

The queen knew that other people could say that the most important thing was the resistance of her brother and Leng Feng.The two most trusted people objected, and the emperor must feel bad.

In the empress's view, both the civil and military forces of the Manchu dynasty opposed the emperor, and it was absolutely impossible to succeed in entrusting the prefect. But if the emperor didn't even have an ally and was directly defeated in the confrontation with all the civil and military officials, it would be too embarrassing!

Li Shimin thought for a while before saying: "I guess there will be no results if you go, alas! You can do whatever you want. I am upset today, so go and rest for a while."

Putting down his chopsticks, Li Shimin sighed and left the table.

He has never felt so irritable and disappointed by imagining a day like today.

It is obviously for the good of Datang, why are these people unwilling just for a little personal benefit!

Looking at the back of the emperor Xiao Suo, the queen also sighed.

Now the emperor is obviously caught in his own fantasy. Obviously this policy is wrong, but the emperor just thinks it is right, and he cannot extricate himself from the long-term stability of the Tang Dynasty after the enfeoffment of the governor.

Instructing the maids to prepare for the Luanjia, the queen felt that she should help her emperor's husband, not only to prevent him from suffering a worse defeat, but also to let him recognize the impossibility of entrusting the governor earlier.

Luan drove out of the palace and went straight to Zhao Guogong's mansion.

However, the queen was in vain, because the grand court meeting symbolized the end of half a year, and it was also a day for officials from the three provinces and six ministries to have a big dinner.

The auction house on the third floor of Tianxia Building was closed today. In the huge auction hall, an extra table was added. Leng Feng, Changsun Wuji and others were drinking at this table while talking about today's affairs.

"The emperor is eager for success. The system of enfeoffing princes in the Zhou Dynasty has long been a sign that the world will be chaotic. Why did he want to move it to the Tang Dynasty?"

Fang Xuanling sighed: "Of course we will not rebel, but who can guarantee that there will be no unfilial people in the family in the future? People are far away from the capital, and some bad thoughts will always arise.

Just like Luo Yi from Binzhou, the old man doesn't believe that he can still develop a rebellious heart while staying in Chang'an? "

Du Ruhui waved his hand: "It doesn't have to be like this. It doesn't mean that if you leave Chang'an, you won't rebel. However, enfeoffing the governor is really not feasible!"

Changsun Wuji drank a glass of wine, said with a blushing face, "The emperor's interest is just for a few days, it's fine after it's over. In these few days, we must resolutely resist the emperor, and we must not let him have any chance of executing it." !"

After speaking, he took a special look at Leng Feng.

Leng Feng: "."

"Zhao Guogong, what do you see me doing?"

Changsun Wuji said leisurely: "Inside us, your fief is safe, and it is very close to Chang'an, especially since you often stand on the emperor's side. It's a very tense time now, you have to stand firm as a 'subject'." !"

Leng Feng was helpless, he only knew after he became Minister of the Ministry of War that the so-called way of being a minister is not only to be loyal, but also to fight against the emperor with all one's strength.

The ministers in the court are actually the emperor's check and balance. If the emperor is strong and his ministers are weak, the tyrant will appear and the emperor will be fooled.

Only when the power is equal, there will be no chaos in the court.

When the emperor made a mistake, the courtiers had to try their best to persuade them.

It is wrong to entrust the governor. Then, we must jointly boycott the emperor. Only when the entire court resists with all our strength can we resist the imperial power.

"I know, you don't have to worry, there are countless nobles from the military behind me. They can't speak, so I have to stand up."

Leng Feng is not only the Minister of the Ministry of War, but also the only one among the generals who has the right to speak on the side of the civil servants.Generally speaking, generals can't say anything about this kind of system change, so they pin their hopes on Leng Feng.

Wei Zheng had a small appetite, so he had already had his fill and drank tea there. Hearing what Changsun Wuji and Leng Feng said, he said, "Don't worry, Leng Feng. He could stand firm before the big troubles. Now, we have to think about it. It is how to persuade the emperor to withdraw his ideas."

The easiest way is to submit the names of all officials, and the emperor has no room to object no matter what happens.However, if he did this, the emperor would lose face, and it would be recorded in the history books.

It's a bit difficult to get him to withdraw his thoughts without hurting the emperor's face!

Leng Feng couldn't help but said: "Why don't I go to the palace and talk to him?"

Li Daozong immediately said: "Don't think about it, you don't know what the emperor looks like? Be careful when he scolds you bloody!"

Li Shimin is very angry, and when he gets angry, he almost disowns his relatives.Maybe this is why Wei Zheng was flogged after his death.

Patronizing and angry, who would have thought about whether it would leave a bad influence.

 I'm really sorry that something happened yesterday.
