I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Chapter 279 You are rich and rich, the people are fat and the people are anointed, the people are easy to be abused, and the gods are hard to deceive!
"Your Majesty and the empress have eaten it, the young master and all the princes and princesses have eaten it, how can I not eat it?"

Du Ruhui stepped forward, casually picked up a pretty good-looking yellow bun, cupped his hands and said,

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the food!"

Li Shimin nodded slightly.

The ministers: "?!"

Du Ruhui's actions reminded them!

Since you must eat it, why don't you start early and find a better-looking one.

Those black ones, blue ones, purple ones...

If this is eaten, it may poison people to death!

All of a sudden, all the ministers stepped forward one after another and divided the buns that had piled up into a hill into half.

Then, the crackling sound of grinding teeth was endless...

"Water, give me water..."

"I'm choking to death!"

"Hey, I haven't eaten this stuff for a long time, and I really miss it. When we were fighting, we shared weal and woe with the soldiers. Didn't we also eat these stuff?"

"Chew, chew hard! This is a good thing, let's be full!"

"..."

Several generals opened their mouths wide open, recalling bitterness and sweetness while eating.

Many of them were born with mud legs. When they were reckless and fighting, what did they not eat?
This steamed bun is hard, but it is kind to chew!
Compared with them, several Wude veterans showed bitter expressions.

Especially Xiao Yu, he has been a noble son since he was a child, and his family conditions are better than that of Li Er when he was a child. Where has he tasted such a thing?

Hard chewing, hard swallowing...

He held his throat with his hands, his eyes popped out, and he almost lost his breath!

For a moment, everyone had different expressions, but no matter who they were, there was no sign of enjoyment on their faces, they were all chewing this hard-to-swallow stuff mechanically.

"Xu Aiqing was right just now!"

Li Shimin held the small half of the bun in his hand, glanced at the ministers, and said loudly,

"This is what the people of Tang Dynasty eat. What is unpalatable to you is a rare delicacy to them!"

"Of course I won't ask you to eat this all at once, I just want you to experience the hardships of people's livelihood."

"People, eat this kind of food, work diligently, pay taxes to the court, and give you salaries!"

"As the emperor, as the ministers in power, if we have the heart to disappoint and waste, we are really worse than animals!"

These sonorous and forceful words made all the officials slow down their chewing speed and listened in silence.

"If one day in the future, as Xu Aiqing said, I break away from the people, think of myself as a god, and oppress all people..."

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said,

"Anyone of you has an obligation, a responsibility to stand up and persuade me, and you must stand up and scold me!"

"Have you heard everything?"

"Your Majesty obeys the decree!" Wei Zheng was the first to express his opinion, "It is really a blessing for all the people in the world and a blessing for the common people of the community to have such a heart, His Majesty!"

This old boy, although he likes to slobber Li Shimin, in fact, his emotional intelligence is high, and when the time is right, his level of flattery is unmatched by anyone.

"Your Majesty is sympathetic to the people and experiences the people's livelihood... This is indeed a blessing for the people and the country."

Fang Xuanling also said with emotion,

"Since ancient times, there has never been such an emperor..."

All the ministers nodded in agreement.

The more dignified and majestic a person is, the less he can tolerate offense and opposition from others, just like an old man with no skills in the village, he thinks he is authoritative when he gets older and cannot tolerate opposition from others.

As the Ninth Five-Year Honorable Li Shimin, it is really not easy to make such a request to everyone...

"I have high demands on myself, and naturally I have high demands on everyone!"

Li Shimin didn't pay attention to the praise of the officials, and instead said sternly,
"I am a tolerant person. For other mistakes, I may be tolerant. But there is a bottom line - I will never allow my ministers to oppress and abuse the people!"

"If there is such a person, get out of the court as soon as possible! Otherwise, once discovered, I will never let you down!"

He said this very seriously!

But even so, Li Er still felt that it was not enough.

He looked at Xu Fenglei, and said in a deep voice:
"Listen, you are insightful. I am also very satisfied and gratified with the education of the prince and the princes and princesses."

"You are worthy of the word Grand Master!"

The ministers: "?!"

Wait, did the emperor say "Grand Master" instead of "Young Master"?
This means, in a short time, this Young Master Xu will probably be promoted to be a prince and grand master!

be nice...

"Your Majesty is absurd. I just think that the crown prince and all the heirs of the emperor should open their eyes to see the world instead of being locked in the deep palace compound."

Xu Fenglei cupped his hands and said,

"In that case, even the imagination will dry up."

"That's why I request Your Majesty to bring more heirs out to observe the people's situation in the future, and even allow them to participate in some folk practices."

"In the past, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty grew up in the market and was well versed in the sufferings of the people. Later, he really became a wise emperor. I think it must be good for the prince and the others to experience a lot, not only to increase their experience, but also to increase their wisdom."

Li Shimin nodded slightly.

"As long as you do a good job in safety, there is nothing wrong with it."

he admitted,

"When I was their age, I thought I was the freest bird..."

"Okay, sure, from now on, you are allowed to take them out once a month, leave early and return late, and I will arrange guards."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of all the emperor's heirs lit up, and their hearts jumped with joy.

What does Emperor Father mean...they can go out to play one day every month?

Great!
"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xu Fenglei smiled slightly and said,
"As for what His Majesty just said, I also deeply agree that the people are the cornerstone of the imperial court. It can even be said that the people of the world are the parents of the court officials!"

"Therefore, I have sixteen words in my heart. Please listen to your Majesty, and also to all colleagues, and even all colleagues who are officials in the same dynasty."

Li Shimin frowned.

"I would like to hear the details." He listened sideways with a focused expression.

All the ministers also looked at Xu Fenglei with burning eyes.

After a breath, Xu Fenglei finally spoke:
"Er Feng Er Lu,"

"The fat of the people, the ointment of the people."

"The lowly people are easy to abuse,"

"God is hard to bully!"

Sixteen characters, one word and one sentence!
Li Shimin: "!!!"

Ministers: "!!!"

Every word is like a heavy hammer, hitting their hearts, making their hearts tremble!
"Your salary, your salary, the fat of the people, the anointment of the people..."

Li Shimin focused his eyes and murmured,
"The people are easy to abuse, but the heavens are hard to bully!"

"Good, good, good!"

He said three good words on his face, clapped his hands and praised:

"These sixteen words are so deafening that they are enough to set up monuments and hang them in front of every government gate as a warning to the world!"

"Listen, you've summed it up really well! It's very close to my heart, very close to my heart!"

"Come here, take a pen and paper, I will write these sixteen characters myself, and pass the decree to the governments of the world!"

　"Your salary is rich, the people anoint the people, the people are easy to abuse, but the heavens are hard to bully" - "Jie Shi Ming"
