Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 261 Emperor Fan
"My son, please see my father!" Li Chengqian saluted Li Er.

In the early morning, Li Er called him to the two ceremonial halls. He didn't know what he wanted to do, and he didn't dare to ask.

Apart from him and Li Er, there was no one else in these two halls of ceremonies, not even Li Zhi, a filial son who rarely left his body on weekdays, was there.

"Sit down!" Li Er said, pointing to the seat beside him.

"Thank you, father!" After Li Chengqian thanked him, he sat beside Li Er, waiting for Li Er to speak.

"Do you know why I called you here this time?" Li Er asked.

"My son doesn't know, please tell my father!" Li Chengqian said.

"Look at this!" Li Er pointed to a pile of tall things on the table.

Due to the angle problem and the stacked memorials, Li Chengqian thought that Li Er was showing him those memorials, but Li Er was actually referring to a set of books next to the memorials.

At first, Li Chengqian thought that these memorials were all memorials to impeach him, but after thinking about it, he didn't do anything out of line, so he shouldn't be impeached.

"I don't know what these memorials are?" Li Chengqian asked anxiously.

Li Er was taken aback!He obviously asked him to read the book, so why did he get involved in the memorial? When he saw the memorial in front of the book, Li Er understood that Li Chengqian was wrong!

"I didn't let you read the memorial, but this book!" Li Er pushed the memorial, pointing to the exposed book.

Only then did Li Chengqian suddenly realize that this was not the case, it was his own misunderstanding, and he couldn't help but blush.

Li Er picked up the book and placed it in front of Li Chengqian, saying, "Look, it's good for you."

Li Chengqian picked up the book, and he found that there was still ink on it, that is to say, the content on it should have been written not long ago.

On the cover of the book, the word Di Fan came into view.

This book is actually written by Li Er, and it is used to warn the prince how to be a good emperor in the future.

"Emperor Fan" is divided into twelve chapters in total. These twelve chapters are "Monarch Body", "Building Marriage", "Seeking Virtue", "Judging Officials", "Receiving Advice", "Quick Greed", "Quiet Entity" ", " Chong Jian ", " Rewards and Punishments ", " Farming ", " Yue Wu ", " Chong Wen ".

In the twelve chapters of "Di Fan", Jun Ti talks about the knowledge of self-cultivation as an emperor, and Jianqin talks about the knowledge of using power.

Seeking talents, judging officials, accepting advice, and going greedy respectively describe the knowledge of using talents, selecting officials, listening to opinions, and putting an end to villains.

Jieying, Chongjian, Rewards and Punishments, Farming, Reading Martial Arts, and Chongwen respectively talk about preventing mistakes from pride, preventing luxury from falling, and preventing injustice from causing chaos.

Concern about "agriculture, rural areas and farmers" is the cornerstone of long-term peace for the benefit of social stability and not slack in armaments. Educate the people, but also educate yourself.

This is a highly concentrated experience of Li Eryi's political career.

In history, Li Er said to Li Zhi, who was still the prince at the time: "The way of explaining government is all in it. Once I speak up, I will say nothing."

It can be seen that Li Er has a high degree of confidence in "Emperor Fan", which is indeed the case.

In "Emperor Fan", he gave very insightful answers to the personal cultivation of politicians, the knowledge of selecting and controlling subordinates, and even family and country affairs such as economy, people's livelihood, education and military affairs.

To be precise, "Emperor Fan" is a summary of Li Er's life experience in governing, and a true portrayal of his life as an emperor.

Li Chengqian opened "Emperor Fan", the first sentence is: I heard that the great virtue is called life, and the great treasure is called status.Distinguishing its up and down, the tree's ruler and minister, so raising Li Yuan, Jun Tao and common people, it is not Keming Kezhe, Yunwu Yunwen...

... So I went forward wearing a mirror, read historical books, gathered the key words, and thought that I was close to the ear.

What follows is Di Fan's first article on monarchy, which begins to talk about how to improve one's self-cultivation as a qualified emperor.

"Take this "Emperor Fan" back and have a good look at it, keep it in your heart, and think more about it." Li Er said.

Li Chengqian said in harmony with God's fan: "My son understands! I will definitely read it carefully."

"Just reading is not enough, you have to apply what you have learned!"

"This first article is to teach you how to cultivate yourself as an emperor in the future. This is a very important question."

"Only by continuous self-cultivation can you better use the power in your hands and use talents to contribute to this empire." Li Er said.

"These words I said, you have to keep them firmly in your heart!"

"I would like to follow the teachings of my father!" Li Chengqian said, with Li Er's experience summed up, it will be much smoother for him to be emperor in the future.

"The principles of self-cultivation and governing the country are all in these twelve chapters. Once you don't hide it, there is nothing to tell you."

"You have to take the ancient sages and sages as your teachers. If you are like me, you can't imitate them. You can only imitate the superior ones. You can only imitate the middle ones. You can't avoid the inferior ones."

"Since I took the throne, I have made many faults. I keep putting beautiful pearls and jade in front of me, and I keep building palaces and pavilions."

"Dogs, horses, hawks, and falcons travel far and wide, wandering around, and causing trouble for the supply of places. These are all my big mistakes. Don't think it is correct and follow it."

"Looking back, I benefited the common people with many benefits, and made great contributions to the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. There are many benefits and few losses, so the people have no complaints; the credits are great and the faults are small, so the king's industry is stable."

"However, if you want to be perfect, you are really ashamed. If you don't have my credit and hard work, you inherit my wealth and try your best to do good deeds, then the country will only be stable; if you are arrogant and lazy, you will not be able to protect yourself."

"And success is hard to come by, but defeat can be quickly incurred. For the empire, it is easy to lose and difficult to gain. For the throne, can you not cherish it? Can you not be cautious!" Li Er earnestly taught Li Chengqian.

"My son will definitely keep my father's teachings in mind, and I will never forget them for a moment. I will always remind myself not to make mistakes, and I will never forget the foundation created by my ancestors." Li Chengqian got up and said.

After Li Er's lecture, Li Chengqian was deeply moved.

"If you can keep my words in your heart, I can rest assured that in the future, when Datang is handed over to you, I will be able to rest in peace!" Li Er said.

"Father is sure to live a long life, and my children should always listen to my father's advice!" Li Chengqian said.

"What I can give you is in this book. After you go back, no matter how busy you are, you should spare time to read it. You will benefit a lot." Li Er said.

"Promise!" Li Chengqian replied.

"Okay! It's getting late! You go back first! I'm a little tired, I want to take a nap." Li Er said.

"My son, leave!" Li Chengqian got up and bowed to leave.

After returning to the East Palace, Li Chengqian carefully read Li Er's masterpiece, a summary of his life's experience in governing - "Emperor Fan".
