Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 435

After Li Zhi finished speaking, there was a complete silence in the court hall.

Li Shimin didn't say anything, because he had an idea in his heart. He was different from Li Zhi, he was emotional, and he had unconditional trust in those close to him!
Changsun Wuji didn't say a word, he already knew in his heart that it was absolutely impossible for the emperor to make Wang Pingan a Duke, and even if he wanted to make Wang Pingan a Duke, it would be impossible to make Wang Pingan a Duke based on his current achievements. Only by making contributions can the prince become a prince!
The ministers have their own ideas, Wang Ping'an is a good man and never offends anyone, except Xu Jingzong.Therefore, none of the ministers in the court would deliberately make things difficult for Wang Ping'an, but a little kid, a young boy who didn't even have a full hair, just wanted to be a prince?This is too enviable!

envy, jealousy, hate!This is like steps, one after another, the ministers are just envious now, a little bit jealous, not to mention hate!
But there are also people who don't care, like Yu Chigong and Li Ji.They are all founding fathers, they are all dukes, they belong to the founder of the country, Wang Ping'an's title in this life, no matter what, he can't be granted the status of the founder of the country. The country was founded many years ago, and the credit of this generation has long been done. No matter how much Wang Pingan can jump, he will not be able to jump on their heads, so Yu Chigong and others are in favor of Wang Pingan being duke.

However, looking at the emperor's expression now, Li Zhi said yes to recommending Wang Ping'an, they... let's just be a bird for a while, don't worry about making a noise!

As soon as Li Shimin waved his hand, Jin Sanyou quickly kowtowed and retreated out of the hall.

After another moment of silence, Li Shimin said: "What do you think the prince said?"

Ministers, look at me, I look at you, no one should be the first bird, no one should speak first.Changsun Wuji looked at Li Zhi and thought to himself: "If you give your father problems, you can't stop for a while!"

Sweat also came out on Li Zhi's forehead, why didn't everyone speak, did I make a mistake in recommending him?
Chu Suiliang stabbed Ma Zhou and whispered, "That's your student!" What he meant was that Wang Ping'an is your student, and you still have to treat him for his meritorious service. Now that the student is having difficulty conferring titles, you have no choice but to help Say something nice!

Ma Zhou misunderstood, he never regarded Wang Ping'an as his real student, but he was a genuine prince master, Li Zhi was his student, he thought Chu Suiliang was talking about Li Zhi!The prince stood in front awkwardly. As a teacher, he should find a step to let the prince down!

Ma Zhou has eaten more salt than Li Zhi has eaten rice. Does he not understand the truth of the emperor's intentions? He cannot embarrass the emperor. It's going to take a lot of brains!
Coughing, Ma Zhou came out of duty, stood behind Li Zhi, and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that there is something strange about quelling the trouble of the Turkic people fleeing westward this time. How can Wang Pingan make more than a hundred thousand Turkic people come back with his own efforts?" People surrender? This is unreasonable!"

Li Zhi looked back at the master and thought: "He taught you eye exercises when you are not sick, and healed your neck pain, so you can repay him like this!"

Ma Zhou didn't look at Li Zhi, and continued: "Wei Zheng, the sage, once said that if you listen to both, you will be clear, and you will be dark if you believe in partiality. The emperor deeply believes that, and my ministers and workers take this as the principle of governing the world, and never dare to listen to one-sided words. .”

The ministers nodded together. Wei Zheng said such a thing, and the emperor strongly agreed with it. This is a fact.However, judging from what Ma Zhou said, he wanted to overwhelm Wang Ping'an, and now it depends on whether the emperor nods.Nodding, everyone booed Wang Pingan, shaking their heads... Everyone booed Ma Zhou!
The emperor had no expression on his face. After a while, he nodded his chin and said, "That's right, Wei Zheng is indeed a virtuous prime minister!"

When the ministers heard it, they understood, and they all knew how to make a fuss!
Ma Zhou continued: "Nowadays, people who come to Beijing all praise Wang Ping'an for being good. I'm afraid this is not in line with the actual situation. Wang Ping'an is a student of the old official, and the teacher knows the character of the student best..."

Chu Suiliang muttered in a very low voice, "Before the court meeting, you still refused to say that Wang Ping'an was your student. What do you know about him!"

Ma Zhou said: "Wang Ping'an's temperament is slow, and he is definitely not a general. Therefore, the veteran thinks that this time to calm the Turkic people from fleeing westward, there must be other secrets. It seems inappropriate to reward at this time. It is better to wait for Wang Ping'an to return to Beijing After that, make a decision!"

Chu Suiliang couldn't bear it anymore, he owed Wang Ping'an a lot of favors, if he didn't speak up at this time, he would feel ashamed when he saw Wang Ping'an in the future.

After leaving the class, Chu Suiliang said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks it is inappropriate. Even if Wang Ping'an returns to Beijing, he will still say these words. If he is asked to state the situation of the battle by himself, as a person, he will definitely shirk and give the credit to others. Come on, isn't it true that meritorious persons are not rewarded, and those without merit are rewarded!"

Yu Chigong, Li Ji and the others also knew that even if they stood up and spoke out, nothing could be changed, but their attitude must be expressed, otherwise they would be sorry to Wang Pingan and have no face to face this good boy!They also went out of class and seconded Chu Suiliang's words.

Among the ministers, officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs also came out one after another, as well as officials from Dali Temple, who bit the bullet, also stood up and whispered to Chu Suiliang!After all, they belonged to the same interest group as Wang Ping'an, so they had to make a statement!
Fortunately, the imperial physicians of the imperial hospital have low official positions and are not qualified to go to court, otherwise they would have to stand up together to support Wang Ping'an!

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, but did not speak, but looked at Changsun Wuji.

Changsun Wuji sighed in his heart: "No illness, it's not that I'm sorry for you. If you were suppressed, you wouldn't have so many troubles. Well, what happened today, I will just compensate you in the future!"

He went out of court and said: "Your Majesty, what Chu Suiliang and his colleagues said is very true and all of them are reasonable. But the veteran thinks that this matter is too important to make a hasty decision. It is better to wait for Xu Jingzong's memorial to be delivered to the capital before making a decision." Not too late!"

But Chu Suiliang said: "But Xu Jingzong didn't send the memorial back for a while. It is rumored that he was taken captive by the Turks and lost his state. How can such a person's words be used as evidence?"

Changsun Wuji said: "Rumors are rumors after all, and have not been confirmed. What if Xu Jingzong hadn't been taken away? After a while, he will definitely send back a memorial and mention this matter, which can be used as evidence! "

Yu Chigong spoke, and said: "Then what if Xu Jingzong was really taken into captivity? Was he taken away by which tribe? Is it possible that Wang Ping'an should be ordered to investigate and rescue him? If so, Xu Jingzong What would Jingzong say about Wang Ping'an? Isn't it still partial belief and darkness?"

This time even Li Zhi spoke up, saying: "Yes, I feel that Xu Jingzong cannot be a witness!"

Changsun Wuji was restless, what are these people so tired of? Don’t tell me you owe Wang Ping’an favors. I’m not really embarrassing him. This matter just needs to be delayed. Wang Pingan will be named Duke sooner or later No matter how old he is, why worry!The more anxious you are now, the more unhappy the emperor will be, and the harder the pressure will be. Are you doing it for Wang Ping'an, a brainless thing, a bunch of drunks and rice bags!
Li Shimin hummed, and said: "Since it's a court meeting, let's all express our opinions and share our opinions!"

Those ministers who didn't speak quickly expressed their opinions. They didn't intend to do anything bad to Wang Ping'an, but they still wouldn't feel very happy if a young boy rushed to their heads. The meaning of the emperor is very obvious, why not follow the emperor's wishes, everyone is getting the emperor's salary, not Wang Ping'an!

The court was divided into two factions, and they discussed each other, which wasn't very intense, but it was chaotic, but they couldn't make a decision at all, and it depended on Li Shimin's intention in the end.

After discussing for a long time, nothing came out!
Li Shimin slapped the table and said: "Your gentlemen are in Chang'an, how can you talk about things thousands of miles away. I think it's better to send someone to find out! Well, I will leave this matter to... Fang Aiqing, You deal with the matter at hand, and go outside the customs, firstly to appease the newly converted Turkic people, and secondly to find out what happened."

Just now the ministers in the court were discussing a lot, and the only one who didn't speak, who didn't express his position, was Fang Xuanling.Fang Xuanling and Wang Ping'an were a little bit upset because of Princess Gaoyang's matter. This kind of thing can't be said clearly, but everyone knows it, so Fang Xuanling was afraid that he would suppress Wang Ping'an, and even more afraid of going against the emperor's wishes, so he simply Keep your voice down and get rich, don't say anything, let others discuss what they like, he intends to stay out of it!

But just because he didn't make a statement, he gave the impression of being neutral and impartial, so Li Shimin appointed him as an imperial envoy. On the surface, it was quite fair!
Fang Xuanling's scalp was numb for a while, it's really unlucky, it's winter, let me go out to drink the northwest wind, and let me do things that offend others!Why did you ask me to do it? Isn't it just to suppress Wang Ping'an, but if I suppress Wang Ping'an, I will offend a large group of people!

Bracing himself, Fang Xuanling walked out and said, "I obey the order!"

All the ministers breathed a sigh of relief. No matter how troublesome things are, as long as someone takes care of them, everything will be fine.
But Chu Suiliang said: "Your Majesty, I think that since we want to send people out of the customs, it is better to inspect the border states. Fang Xuanling may not be able to handle it alone, so we should send a few more people so that we can take care of each other!"

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Okay, then who should we send? Does Chu Aiqing have anyone to recommend?"

Chu Suiliang turned back and looked at the ministers.The ministers glared at him together, don't push us, be careful to turn against you!Now the Turkic people are in the northwest direction, and the northwest wind is blowing outside the pass. We don't want to drink it, but you have to drink it yourself!

Chu Suiliang turned around and said: "The old minister thinks that Cheng Zhijie is a fair man, but he is a general who knows the soldiers and can patrol around!"

Cheng Zhijie was furious, Chu, believe it or not, I will burn your house down!

He strode out of the shift and said: "Your Majesty, this old minister is willing to go to patrol the border. However, this old minister heard that General Zuo Xiaowei Wang Wendu has suffered from leg pain recently. He has searched for famous doctors in Beijing, but he can't cure him. He suffers from pain every day. The old minister thought it would be better to send Wang Wendu, he is proficient in military affairs, firstly he can patrol the border, and secondly, he can ask Wang Pingan to cure his leg disease, killing two birds with one stone!"

Without waiting for Li Shimin to agree, the ministers said together: "The ministers seconded the proposal, Wang Wendu is familiar with the art of war and is good at using troops. He is my Tang general and can patrol the border!"

The ministers were deeply afraid that the emperor would not agree. If Cheng Zhijie and Chu Suiliang recommended others and put them on their own heads, that would be bad luck. Why not find a bad guy and push the disaster away!

Li Shimin thought for a while and said, "Then, send Wang Wendu there!"

This Wang Wendu is one of the generals of the Weifu. He serves as Zuo Xiaowei. Zuo Xiaowei has one general and two generals. He is one of the generals. He is a military officer of the third rank.

Today's court meeting, as long as they are qualified to attend the court, those who can come will come, but there will be one who can't, and that is Wang Wendu!
Wang Wendu suffered from a leg disease, and his legs and feet were inconvenient. This disease was unlike any other. He couldn't stand up, so he couldn't come to court, so he took sick leave.

Just because he took sick leave, he couldn't shirk it. As long as the emperor nodded, he had to go if he didn't, and he had to thank others for recommending him.

Everyone is doing it for his own good, let him go to Wang Ping'an to see a doctor, and the travel expenses are paid by the public, so it is considered a public trip... Drinking the northwest wind, watching the snow on the grassland, how poetic, good deed, no thanks!
Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling and thought to himself: "As soon as he comes home, tell me about the matter, will that kid Gao Yang come to beg me not to send his father-in-law out?"

While ordering Shi Zhongchen to draw up an order, he said: "The sooner this matter is resolved, the better, but I have a concern." After a pause, he said: "Leave Beijing immediately!"

Fang Xuanling had no choice but to wait for Shi Zhongchen to draw up the imperial decree before resigning from the palace.

Leaving Beijing immediately means that he can't go home to say goodbye, he has to leave the city for thirty miles first.He sent his attendants home to report the news, and asked his family to deliver some supplies for the road, while he traveled thirty li by car and found an inn to rest, waiting for Wang Wendu to catch up.

In the evening, Fang Yiai came running and brought all kinds of tools needed on the road. Not only he came, but Chu Suiliang also came. Chu Suiliang came to comfort him, and he must be an old friend. How is it in class, but the relationship in private is still very good.

Fang Yiai asked: "Father, why did the court send you outside the customs?"

Fang Xuanling sighed, and said, "Ask your Uncle Chu, let him tell you why?"

Chu Suiliang smiled and said: "There is a saying that is good, why do birds have no meat to eat, your father is a good bird with meat, today in the court, he is not careless at all, and the emperor found out chant!"

Fang Yiai was puzzled and said: "Then what? The emperor found out that Daddy is not a Zhahu bird... What does it mean?"

Chu Suiliang said: "It means that birds with a lot of meat are often roasted first! No, it should be said to be frozen first!"

Fang Xuanling said angrily: "This mouth of yours is really killing you. At this time, Chang'an is already freezing cold. I don't think the outside of the pass will turn into ice? I will leave the pass this time, and it will be after the beginning of spring at the earliest. It’s all your fault for coming back!”

Chu Suiliang quickly comforted him, telling Fang Xuanling not to worry, while he was talking, someone came to report that General Zuo Xiaowei Wang Wendu had arrived!
