Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 759 Chapter 778: Persuading Wei Zheng
Seeing that he stopped scolding, Li Hao was a little disappointed, and suddenly raised his eyebrows and said leisurely: "Master Wei, I am not the one who interferes in the harem, and it is not me who wants to use the harem to win the emperor's favor, there are other people."

That's right, it wasn't him who wanted Wu Meiniang to enter the palace, and it wasn't him who wanted to use this method to cling to her, so he applauded and let Wei Zheng scold him vigorously, because he couldn't scold him.

"Not you?" Wei Zheng looked at Li Hao suspiciously and asked, "Who is that?"

"Guess." Li Hao smiled meanly at Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng was already very angry, but Li Hao was still playing cheap, he was already in his 30s, and he was worshiped as a first-rank Taifu, how decent he looked like this, Wei Zheng was so angry that he stared straight: "I can't guess!"

Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "Let me remind you, besides me, who else in the court has such great ability?"

"Changsun Wuji!" Wei Zheng exclaimed when he heard the words.

Li Hao quickly flattered him with a smile: "Ah, Mr. Changsun is really very smart, he can guess right, it's amazing."

"Stop pretending to be crazy!" Wei Zheng glared at him fiercely, and asked, "My old man asks you, since Changsun Wuji wants to let Wu Meiniang enter the palace, then this matter has nothing to do with you, no, you and I should stop it , why did you let the old man complain about his illness and stay on the sidelines?"

Li Hao suddenly suppressed his smile when he heard the words, sighed, and said slowly: "Because this is the trend of the times, and the sacred will cannot be violated. Master Wei and I... can't stop it."

"If you can't stop him, let him do whatever he wants!" Wei Zheng glared at Li Hao angrily.

Li Hao rolled his eyes depressedly, and said, "Master Wei, it was the emperor who did the wrong thing, why are you yelling at me?"

Wei Zheng also realized that he had found the wrong person to vent his anger, but after thinking about it, Li Hao's attitude of inaction was also very hateful, so he said: "As a minister, you don't want to persuade and run away when things happen. This old man scolds you Two sentences, are you wrong?"

Li Hao suddenly asked with a serious face: "Master Wei, you have known me for not a day or two, it has been sixteen or seventeen years, Mr. Wei, you feel your conscience and say, I am such a person, Li Hao?"

Wei Zheng fell silent when he heard the words. In all fairness, Li Hao's previous actions were really remarkable, which made him admire him. He is definitely not a person who shrinks back when things happen. So he slowed down his tone and asked coldly: " Then tell me, why do you want the old man to sue for illness and not go to court, regardless of this matter?"

Li Hao sighed softly, and said slowly: "First of all, Mr. Wei, you have to trust me. I, Li Hao, will never act aimlessly."

Wei Zheng nodded. That's true. Li Hao really does not do things aimlessly. Although sometimes he feels that Li Hao will do some strange things, but in the end, he will understand that Li Hao is doing strange tricks.

Seeing Wei Zheng nodded, Li Hao smiled calmly, and continued: "Secondly, Lord Wei needs to understand that Wu Meiniang has given birth to a son and a daughter for the emperor, and the royal blood must return to the palace. It is an inevitable trend for Wu Meiniang to enter the palace. Moreover, His Majesty is determined to take her into the palace, no matter how much the ministers try to dissuade her, no matter how much the people scold her, it will not change this fact, even if you, Master Wei, admonish you with death, it will be useless."

After listening to Li Hao's words, Wei Zheng knew that his analysis was right, but he was still not convinced. If there were no advices, would he not be admonishing? How many advices he gave to Li Shimin in his life, not all of them were adopted by Li Shimin Yes, but he still insists on admonishing every situation, not to mention that Li Zhi made such a big mistake this time.

Just as he was about to speak, Li Hao raised his hand to stop him, saying: "Master Wei, I know what you are going to say, just listen to me, the emperor was young and energetic, and made a big mistake, but the big mistake has already been made, It cannot be reversed. If Mr. Wei stares at it, it may cause holy wrath. Mr. Wei must know that the current emperor is not the first emperor. He may not be as tough as the first emperor. At the same time, his stomach is not necessarily It's as wide as the former emperor."

"What are you afraid of, old man!" Wei Zheng's stubborn temper broke out again, and he snorted coldly, "If this old man dies after admonishing him, his name will remain forever, but he is a foolish king who messes with ethics and principles, and he will only be infamous forever!"

"Master Wei, is he trying to make a name for himself?" Li Hao looked at him with a sneer.

"What did you say!" Wei Zheng stared at Li Hao angrily upon hearing this.

Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said: "Am I wrong? If Master Wei dies on admonishment, he will not die, but he will be hated by the emperor. He will be an official, and he will have a good reputation. So, may I ask, Master Wei, you are the pillar of the country. Liang, you suddenly withdrew, where did you put the country and the country?"

Wei Zheng was stunned when he heard the words. What Li Hao said was very reasonable. If it is simplified and summed up in one sentence, don't show your enthusiasm for a while, stay useful and continue to serve the country.

But this was too contrary to Wei Zheng's behavior style. He felt very uncomfortable, as if he had swallowed an egg raw and it stuck in his throat.

After a moment of silence, Wei Zheng sighed slowly: "I'm old, I won't live for a few more years, why don't I just give it a go, it's enough for Datang to have you, Li Hao."

"My lord, you are wrong." Li Hao said solemnly, "From my view of your appearance, your lord can live for at least seven or eight years, and at least you can serve Datang for another five years. It’s not short, the new emperor has just ascended the throne, and you still need to remind him everywhere to make him a generation of Mingjun like the previous emperor, and you still need to guard the court. Lord Wei is full of righteousness, under your eyes, All treacherous and evil people have nowhere to hide."

Speaking of this, Li Hao suddenly cupped his hands, and said in a very solemn way: "Master Wei, Li Hao is young and single. Although he occupies a high position, his foundation is shallow, and he may not be able to support the magnificent building of the Tang Dynasty. I hope that Mr. Wei will hold back for a while. To seek the longevity of the country, the overall situation is the most important thing." After he finished speaking, he nodded and bowed with sincerity.

Wei Zheng was silent again when he heard the words, and sat there with frowning eyebrows, without looking at him. After a long time, Wei Zhengchang took a breath, and sighed helplessly: "What Shi Kuang said made me ashamed, okay, I will answer you." So please, from tomorrow onwards, the old man will say that he is ill and will not go to court until Wu Meiniang enters the palace."

Li Hao got up, clasped his hands again and said: "Master Wei understands the righteousness deeply, bears humiliation and bears the burden of humiliation, please accept the bow of the junior!" After he finished speaking, he bowed to Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng bowed his hands and returned the salute: "Taifu Li puts the country first, and the country is the most important. He is indeed a big brother of the Tang Dynasty. It is really a blessing for the Tang Dynasty to have you."

"Master Wei has given you too much credit." Li Hao smiled slightly and said, "The younger generation's business is over, so I will leave now."

"The old man will see you off."

After finishing speaking, Wei Zheng personally sent Li Hao to leave.

Walking out of Wei Zheng's house, Li Hao heaved a long sigh of relief. If anyone in the Tang Dynasty is the most difficult to persuade, then it is Wei Zheng. It was useless, but fortunately Li Hao had a good eloquence, and he tried his best to persuade him, which made Li Hao feel a little proud. Regarding the matter of Wu Meiniang entering the palace, Li Hao was actually a bit conflicted, but when he thought of harming others The feudal etiquette is not shallow, Li Hao still decided to let Wu Meiniang enter the palace for a try, seeking skin from a tiger, there must always be a bit of an adventurous spirit, he dare not deal with the strict feudal etiquette, even if he is the emperor, challenge the feudal etiquette, There will also be great resistance, Wu Meiniang is the best choice to deal with the feudal etiquette, but can she really set foot on the position of empress as in history?
Helping Wu Meiniang is like raising a tiger. Fortunately, Li Hao has the ability to protect himself. Even if the tiger grows up, he can kill the tiger, so he is not afraid, but Changsun Wuji is different. It looks awesome, but you must know that all his powers are bestowed by the emperor, and the emperor can take away all his powers with a word, turning him into a bad old man who no one cares about, the eldest grandson Wuji raising a tiger is tantamount to courting death. The key is that the eldest grandson Wuji didn't realize that he was raising a tiger. He thought he was raising just a kitten.
