I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Chapter 265 Feng Guogong, Li Shentong Dissatisfied?Li Shimin directly lifted the old bottom!

The words of Li Shentong, King of Huai'an, made Li Shimin, who was originally smiling, frown slightly.

"King Huai'an, do you have something to say?"

He said solemnly.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Li Shentong came out and said unhappily:
"Your Majesty, I refuse to accept!"

"Since ancient times, nobility has been based on military merit."

"For example, Xu Fenglei, Changsun Wuji, Yu Chigong and other ministers who have military merits will be generously rewarded, but Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others have no military merits, but they have sealed [-] households, and the rewards are still with us. Above those with military exploits!"

"I am not convinced in my heart, and I believe that all of you ministers with military merits are not angry either!"

As soon as this remark came out, all the officials were shocked.

This Li Shentong is really generous!At a time like this, how dare you jump out and confront the emperor, openly resisting the emperor's decision.

The expressions of Yu Chigong, Cheng Yaojin and other Tiance generals all changed, and they looked at Li Shentong unkindly.

"Uncle, what do you mean, with your military merits, you should be above all the ministers?"

Li Shimin snorted and said with a light smile,
"Is this what you mean?"

"Although my military achievements are shallow, I think I am still superior to Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Gao Shilian and others." Li Shentong responded.

boom!
Li Er's expression changed, and he slapped the dragon chair.

"Prince Huai'an! Do you really want me to find out all about you?"

He said coldly,

"In the past, when Dou Jiande annexed Shandong, you led the troops to resist, and the whole army was wiped out! Is this a military achievement?"

"Fight again against Liu Heita, and you fled without fighting, making my Tang army laugh at the Hebei soldiers and horses. Isn't this also military merit?"

"Although Xuanling and Ruhui have no military exploits, they have strategized and unparalleled wisdom. They have repeatedly helped me to win, just like my Xiao He and Cao Shen! Let me ask you, what kind of hero Xiao He and Cao Shen were in the Han Dynasty?"

Li Shentong was ashamed by Li Shimin, his old face flushed immediately, his expression was extremely embarrassing, and he faltered and said:
"me……"

As soon as this black history was exposed, he already lost half of his confidence, and just wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in!
Seeing that he was speechless, Li Shimin's expression softened a little.

"Uncle is my close relative, I love him deeply, but I can't be unclear about rewards and punishments because of my preference for uncle!"

He said seriously,

"Ever since I drew up this list of rewards, I knew there would be disputes. I am not afraid of disputes, but I am afraid that you will not argue!"

"If you have any grievances in your heart, you can speak out now, and you can also submit a table to Chen Zou, and I will give you an explanation!"

"Who else wants Chen Zou?"

All the ministers: "..."

Even a thorny head like King Huai'an was trained to have no temper at all, so they were naturally convinced.

But Fang Xuanling suddenly came out and said:
"Initiate Your Majesty."

"Among the old people in the former Tiance Mansion, there are many people who complain because they can't be reused. Please give instructions from Your Majesty."

Li Shimin snorted coldly when he heard this.

"The old mansion is old, I treat them well!"

He waved,

"I don't hesitate to reward gold, silver, and silk! Their so-called reuse is nothing more than seeking a position in the court."

"However, the court is the court of the country, not my court alone. I choose officials for the people of the world, not for entertainment!"

"Those who have talent, I will choose them; if you don't have talent, you can be a rich man without worrying about your career. I'm not a crony king!"

Fang Xuanling immediately bowed down.

"According to the order."

he said,

"Your Majesty's reprimand will definitely wake up those who have delusions."

"Your Majesty Shengming."

All the ministers bowed their hands and saluted, and their hearts became more and more respectful.

This is what Mingjun should do!
"This is listening to the class I took at the time..."

Xu Fenglei also smiled, feeling relieved.

Li Shimin's words are already in line with the way of the king in "Book of Changes"!
"Since there is nothing wrong, let's go back to the court. For the rest of the affairs, report to the Zhengshitang."

Li Er looked around and saw that all the ministers had lowered their heads, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and lowered his hand down the jade steps.

To be an emperor, you have to be quick-spoken.

"Long live my emperor."

All the ministers shouted long live, and after the emperor left, the atmosphere relaxed again.

"How do you say? We are proud today!"

Yu Chigong said without any scruples,
"Also talking about military merit, who can compare to our Tiance Mansion's people when it comes to military merit? Those princes who were defeated in battle? Escaped from the county king?"

"A joke, what a joke! Hahahaha..."

His loud voice, coupled with the extremely mocking tone, made Pei Ji, Li Shentong and the others look ugly, and quickly left the Xiande Hall.

"Jingde, keep your voice down, pay attention to the influence."

Xu Fenglei laughed and scolded,

"At any rate, they are all ministers of the same dynasty, so we have to save some face for them."

When Yuchi Gong heard the words, he curled his lips.

"They were shameless first, I just counterattacked."

He hummed softly,

"That's all, since the young master is talking, let's not bother with them!"

"Let's go! I'm happy today, go to my house to drink, drink him to my heart's content, and I won't go home if I'm not drunk!"

This proposal immediately won the approval of all warriors:

"Ok, go, go..."

"If I don't drink you to death today, I won't be named Cheng!"

"drink!"

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui looked at each other, and hurriedly refused:

"You guys go... The court is busy with government affairs, so I dare not make mistakes with drinking. The two of us have already been criticized, so I dare not make mistakes again."

Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian also said:
"Don't go, don't go, it's no fun drinking with you bunch of animals, I'd better go home and have a drink or two."

These rams drink like buffaloes, and they go crazy when they get drunk.

In the past, they had no choice but to endure in the Tiance Mansion... Now that they each have their own mansions, how can they be a fool?

go away!

"Huh? What a disappointment!"

Cheng Yaojin showed displeasure, and hurriedly took Xu Fenglei's hand and said,

"Master Xu, Mr. Xu...they are all weaklings, but you are a wine master recognized by our Tiance Mansion. It's no fun drinking with them, so you have to come!"

"Let's go, let's go back!"

After all, he and Yu Chigong have set up Xu Fenglei and want to "kidnap" him away!

Xu Fenglei was helpless, he couldn't beat them, so he could only let the generals mess around.

But at this moment, a eunuch came from the back hall, saluted Xu Fenglei and said:

"Master, Your Majesty invites you to speak in the apse."

Xu Fenglei frowned.

"Let go let go! Like a bandit!"

He took the opportunity to get rid of the two big men, and scolded,

"Did you hear that? Your Majesty has issued a call. I don't have time to play with you. Go crazy on your own, and just don't kill anyone."

All the generals looked unhappy, but they had no choice but to say yes.

"Eunuch, lead the way."

Xu Fenglei shook his sleeves, waved his hands and said with a smile,
"Your Majesty summoned me suddenly, maybe it has something to do with the royal family."

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and the others all showed a bright light and remained silent.
