Datang Longya

Chapter 994 Competent Boss
The reigning courtiers were drunk and noisy, but the retired senior ministers were extremely dull.

Li Ji was gray-haired and knelt down in front of Li Shimin with his head smashed.

The news he learned from Leng Jing had already frightened him out of his wits, and it was even less known what the secret guards had discovered.

A general in command of the local forces unexpectedly meddles in local government affairs recklessly, and blatantly mints coins and recruits soldiers privately.It is not too much to label such behavior as treason.

Li Shimin's legs and feet are inconvenient today, and he is sitting in a wheelchair.

Seeing Li Ji kneeling down, the veterans also looked at themselves expectantly, turned their wheelchairs, faced Li Ji and said, "I know your loyalty and respect, Li Jingye is your grandson, and his father is the one who should be blamed for his misbehavior." , should not be held on your head. Aiqing has fought for the Tang Dynasty for many years, and she has worked so hard, so she can’t end. I will make the decision for you. As long as Li Jingye’s head is alone, you can bring your wife, family and children to Chang’an.”

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Ji burst into tears and kowtowed to thank him.

Li Shimin ordered the guards to help Li Ji up, and raised the wine glass to drink with the veterans.

The matter of Li Ji's family was settled, and the veterans were all smiles, and the atmosphere became cheerful again.

Leng Feng picked up a glass of wine and had a drink with Li Shimin.

Needless to say, Li Shimin is indeed a competent boss, and he will never let his pony down.

To be honest, what Li Jingye did is really enough to be labeled as "rebellion".As long as he is convicted of this crime, even now, he will have to pay the barbarians.Heavy codes are used in troubled times, so why not in prosperous times?

But even with such a serious crime, Li Shimin still forgave Li Ji's family and only blamed Li Jingye. This is already a special kindness to Li Ji's family.

Founding heroes are generally unable to escape the fate of cunning rabbits and lackeys, but in Li Shimin's case, it really turned around completely.

A boss who clearly knows the efforts of his subordinates and covers them is definitely competent.

Leng Feng is completely convinced of Li Shimin now, it is not without reason that the emperor Li Shimin is the only leader in the long Sui Dynasty.

In the middle of the banquet, Li Chengqian came over, toasted his father, master and all the veterans, and took advantage of the opportunity to sit next to Li Shimin.

Seeing Li Chengqian's red eyes, Leng Feng couldn't help but said: "Even if you are the emperor, drink less, you have hereditary asthma and wind disease, if you don't pay attention to health preservation, I'm afraid you won't survive your father. "

Li Chengqian said with a wry smile: "On such a happy day, how can I, the emperor, lose the chain."

After finishing speaking, he changed the tea and asked about his father's physical condition.

Li Shimin tapped his thigh and said: "It's all caused by the march in the early years. I asked Sun Daochang, and he said that we old soldiers have this problem more or less. Li Jing seldom goes into battle in person. That's it, he still sits on it." Wheelchairs, how can I be an exception? Although Zhijie and the others can walk and jump, they are also complaining endlessly when it is cloudy. Chengqian, your master is right, even if you are on the throne, you can’t underestimate your health. If you have been in office for twenty-five years, if you can't compare with me, you will be ashamed."

Li Chengqian smiled, helpless.Asthma is inherited from his mother, and wind disease is inherited from his father. As a son, he can't blame his parents unfilially.

Seeing that Li Ji wanted to stand up, Li Shimin said to Li Chengqian: "Chengqian, I probably guessed a little bit about Li Jingye's matter. Li Ji's meritorious service is outstanding, and he can't let it go. Now the shadow guards of the Leng family have dispatched If you go out, Li Jingye's head will be sent back to Chang'an in less than two months. If I want to ask you for favors, let Li Jingye be held accountable, and don't implicate his wife and children."

Li Chengqian put down his wine glass, cupped his hands and said, "Father, what did you say to please people? You have ordered me, and my ministers should obey them. It will not change because the emperor is a minister. Since you have spoken, the ministers will not pursue Li Chengqian." The crime of professionalism is."

An emperor is an emperor only when he holds great power. Li Shimin knows this truth better than anyone else.Now his son is filial, even though he is in power, he has not ignored his father's feelings, which makes Li Shimin very happy.Reaching out to pat Li Chengqian's shoulder, Li Shimin smiled without saying a word.

Li Ji just got up and thanked Li Chengqian for his tolerance.

It was only at this point in the banquet that the cooked seafood was delivered and placed on the table for everyone to eat.

It's good to eat some fresh seafood like seafood on an ordinary day, so Leng Feng went to the table to choose seafood.

Seeing Master get up, Li Chengqian also followed.

While choosing seafood, Li Chengqian said: "The construction of the bridge on the Yangtze River is only possible now. The gap between the north and the south is a big problem after all. Those local wealthy families are not even as big as the Marquis family in the north. I really don’t know what it means to fantasize about controlling the government. This time, I want to deal with them severely. This time Li Jingye was singled out as the gunman, and I don’t know who it is next time.”

Leng Feng chose a plate of seafood before saying: "You are right. Just like what I can tell you at the beginning, the most important thing in a country is the overall order. No force, such as commerce, can influence the direction of the country. Otherwise, it will be dealt with severely. This time, kill less people, if you feel uneasy, I will ask Xiao Yuan to rectify them and let them go bankrupt."

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Master's orders, apprentices will naturally obey. It's just, master, what do you think of what I did this time? I was waiting for your advice, but you have been ignoring it. Now that the experiment is completed, it seems that the authority has been delegated to the third party." There's nothing wrong with scoring. But if you fail, don't you worry?"

Leng Feng smiled and said: "You have learned from me for so many years, you can still learn to be cautious. As a master, I can at most be your guide, how you walk is your business, you can't always walk under my guidance, right?" You have done a good job this time, but the direction is a bit wrong, the distribution of power does not necessarily have to be from top to bottom, there are other ways, which need to be considered by you.”

Li Chengqian nodded, he knew that Master didn't want to get involved too much, what he said today was an unprecedented instruction.

The master and apprentice walked back together, Li Chengqian asked with a smile: "Master, didn't you always say that it would be interesting to rely on your status and prestige to misbehave in Chang'an in the future? Why don't you do it now that you have been promoted to the prince?"

Knowing that this kid wanted to praise him, but Leng Feng patted him on the head: "I know your ghost thoughts, Master will always be your Master, and you don't need to find ways to flatter. Be your emperor well, now that Tubo has recovered, As long as you improve the domestic people's livelihood to a higher level, you will not be able to escape the title of Yong'an Prosperity, so don't force yourself too much."
