Li Chao's refusal left Eunuch Wang dumbfounded. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The emperor has given the steps like this, and he still handles it?

added the Taibao, gave Li Chao's four sons the title of founding man, and asked Li Chao to go back to succeed to the throne as Shang Shuling. Generally speaking, if something like yesterday happened, it should be Li Chao, a courtier, who apologized to the emperor first. Now that the emperor is giving face like this, are you still holding it?

Eunuch Wang felt that Li Chao didn't really want to resign, he was only twenty-six years old, which job did you resign.

But Li Chao was very resolute and refused to accept the order.

Come with the excitement and return with the defeat.

When leaving, Eunuch Wang's eyes were complicated, and he had never seen such a powerful courtier as Li Chao. Hurriedly returned to the palace, and the eunuch Wang reported truthfully.

Li Shimin was also stunned.

What does it mean to refuse to be accepted?

Li Chao, what is he going to do, I have given face like this, what else does he want?

It's a little too.

Li Shimin took a long breath and secretly told himself to restrain and control. Now public opinion is raging, and you have to endure it.

"Summoning Ma Zhou!"

The right servant shot and the household department Shangshu Ma Zhou was summoned.

"Ma Aiqing, you go and persuade Wen Yuan, you should put state affairs first, I admit that I was a little out of shape yesterday and said something that shouldn't be said. Li Chao is also the prime minister, when he has this belly, don't hide at home anymore, the court still needs him. ”

Ma Zhou clearly knew that Li Chao really didn't want to come out to take office, at least he didn't want to come out again in the limelight now.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that if you want to invite Li Xiang out, you should do one thing first."

"What's the matter?" Li Shimin asked, why are these courtiers so difficult now, doing some things, and talking about conditions, all of which have the same stink as Li Chaoxue. Is there a king in your eyes, ah?

"Your Majesty, please first issue an order to behead Hou Junji at the noon gate, Ming Zheng is the first model!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin's face was not good-looking.

Even if he plans to back down and no longer protect Hou Junji, he doesn't want to be forced by his courtiers to kill Hou Junji immediately, in that case, how can he save face?

"There are still some details in this matter that need to be carefully examined. Let Li Chao come out to do things first, so that he can pick and choose at will, is it the minister's doing? ”

Ma Zhou refused to compromise and retreat.

"Your Majesty, now that public opinion in the government and the opposition is raging, the Guozijian and the students of the Wutang have all jointly written a letter demanding that the national thief Hou Junji be severely punished. At this time, not killing Hou Junji is not enough to make the people angry. Your Majesty, killing Hou Junji is also for the sake of Your Majesty's reputation. If you don't kill again, how will the people of the world guess Your Majesty? ”

"Those soldiers who were betrayed by Hou Junji in the southern expedition to Tibet, how can they be pacified? Your Majesty, don't take the blame for Hou Junji's mistakes! ”

Li Shimin didn't listen.

What he thinks now is that he can give Li Chao a step and give Li Chao a step, but it is not unlimited. If he doesn't keep this bottom line today, these prime ministers will get more and more inches in the future.

He is willing to give the prime ministers great power, but only if the prime ministers are under the control of his monarchs and ministers, and not the other way around, the prime ministers will empty him.

"I have my own considerations, you can go down."

Ma Zhou was a little disappointed and refused to retreat.

"Your Majesty, please think again!"

"Presumptuous, do you want to learn from Li Chao too?" Li Shimin was furious.

"The minister is for the sake of His Majesty's reputation, for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, for the sake of a Hou Junji, it is not worth it!"

"Stand down!" Li Shimin shouted.

Ma Zhou gritted his teeth, "If Your Majesty refuses to use the minister's advice, then what's the use of the minister staying in the book, the minister resigns!" ”

"Do you want to learn from Li Chao?"

"The minister is dedicated to the Tang Dynasty as His Majesty, but the Tang Dynasty refuses to accept the advice of the minister."

Li Shimin's chest rose and fell violently.

Li Chao forced him, and now Ma Zhou is also forcing him.

"Ma Zhou, have you forgotten how I promoted you? A few years ago, Li Chao was just a wild monk, and you, Ma Zhou, were just a down-and-out scholar. I did not look down on you because of your origins, I did not reuse you in any way, I valued your talents and your loyalty. But today, you've disappointed me so much. In your eyes, is there only the old master Li Chao, and there is no me, the son of heaven? ”

This is a very important statement.

Ma Zhou's face was pale and his heart ached.

Loyal, but so suspicious.

Ma Zhou raised his hand to take off his beam crown, untied the jade belt, took off his purple robe, and touched his head to the ground.

Bang bang

This is to repay Li Shimin for his appreciation of his knowledge, but since the emperor doubts his loyalty and refuses to accept his advice, how can he stay under the Zhongshu Gate?

Li Shimin looked at Ma Chao kowtow coldly, watched him get up, watched him bow down and retreat, he didn't say anything to stay.

There are many talents in the world, as long as he is willing to use them, some people are willing to work for him.

He is the Son of Heaven, Li Chao and Ma Zhou are just the prime ministers he chooses, and the prime minister obeys the words of the Son of Heaven, not that his Son of Heaven has to listen to the words of the Prime Minister everywhere.

It's been a day.

The guards at the palace gate were surprised to see a prime minister come out bareheaded, this time, he didn't even wear a purple robe, and came out wearing a white middle coat.

Yesterday, Li Chao came out like this, and then the news of Li Chao's resignation came out.

Ma Zhou came out like this again today, could it be that Ma Zhou also resigned?

"Life is not satisfactory in the world, and the Ming Dynasty spreads flat boats." Ma Zhou glanced back at the palace, his eyes full of loss. He recited a poem loudly, the poem he saw from Li Chao yesterday, and then left lonely.

Under the door of the book.

Fang Xuanling felt a toothache.

"Hey, what's going on, Ma Zhou went to the palace to face the saint, why did he give his resignation. This Wen Yuan hasn't been persuaded yet, and here he resigned another one in a blink of an eye. Oops, what the hell is this? ”

"yes, what is this all about?" Du Ruhui has a stomachache.

This year, the wind and rain were going well, but why did four prime ministers go to the throne in a row.

Palace.

Li Shimin gritted his teeth angrily, he couldn't imagine that he would pull up Li Chao and Ma Zhou with one hand, and treat him like this. Two ungrateful fellows, "Eunuch Wang, summon the scholars to come." ”

The people of the middle school came to Sui Liang.

"Grass edict, edict Chen Shuda is the order of the book, Xiao Yu is the right servant to shoot, and the Shaoqing of Dali Temple is promoted to the secretary of the household!"

Li Shimin is really angry, without Zhang Butcher, do I really want to eat pigs with hair.

If you don't come, then I won't need it.

Yu Suiliang was so surprised that he drafted the edict and gave it to Li Shimin for seeing.

"Well, send the letter to the prime minister for signature!"

Under the Zhongshu Gate, Fang Xuanling and the others were about to go to see the emperor, but they saw Yu Suiliang coming.

"What did Your Majesty call you to do?" The eldest grandson Wuji asked.

Yu Suiliang handed over the drafted edict, and the eldest grandson Wuji looked at it, and his face changed.

"Chen Shuda is the Shangshu Ling, Xiao Yu is the right servant, and Dai Zhou is the Shangshu of the Household Department?"

Fang Xuanling also changed color.

These three people are all against the New Deal. Although Chen Shuda's attitude later softened and he was a reformist rather than a repealer, in short, they were all opponents of the New Deal.

Now that the emperor is in this edict, is this really going to leave Li Chao and Ma Zhou behind?

You still want to use Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, and Dai Guan, what are you going to do?

Could it be that because of the dispute with Li Chao, he finally had to move to the new law.

"I'm going to see Your Majesty!" The eldest grandson Wuji got up.

"I'll go too." Fang Xuanling also got up.

"Let's go." Du Ruhui followed.

The three prime ministers, Yu Wenshi, Gao Shilian and Yang Gongren, looked at each other and stood up, they were actually against the new law, and they were happy to see Li Chao and Ma Zhou go together, but now they feel that it is good to go together.

The Imperial Study.

Fang Xuanling persuaded Li Shimin bitterly, "Please take back your majesty's life!" ”

"Please take back your order!" Du Ruhui, eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng and others persuaded together.

Li Shimin's face turned pale.

The more the prime ministers persuaded him, the more angry he became.

At this time, he realized that this Li Chao's reputation was much greater than he expected.

"I don't need Li Chao, but Li Chao doesn't want to be used by me. He is determined to resign and retire, what can I do? I gave him an order, but he refused. Can I still tie him up, if he wants to, can I tie up his people, maybe tie his heart? ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to persuade Li Chao again." Fang Xuanling said.

"Forget it, the twisted melon is not sweet." Li Shimin waved his hand.

He didn't believe it, without Li Chao, the court wouldn't be turned.

"Xuan Ling, such as obscure. Since Li Chao and Ma Zhou are bent on resigning, I can't help it. The positions in the imperial court cannot be vacant for a long time, and I have already selected Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, and Dai Xuan to fill the vacant positions. Sign this edict. ”

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui looked at the edict, and then looked at the emperor's face.

Li Shimin's face was extremely ugly.

The prime ministers have repeatedly made the emperor hard-topped, which has made the emperor almost violent.

If this edict is not signed again, I am afraid that the consequences will be very serious.

"Sign!"

Fang Xuanling took the lead in signing, for so many years, he assisted Li Shimin, and the two cooperated tacitly, this time, in the end, Fang Xuanling still did not embarrass Li Shimin.

The Chinese book ordered Fang Xuanling to sign, and the Chinese book waiter naturally signed it, and then Du Ruhui also signed it, and the servant also signed it·····

With these signatures, the edict is legal and compliant.

The eunuch Wang personally took the edict and went to read it.

Jiangguo Mansion.

Since Chen Shuda was dismissed, he has been closed all day long, reading books at home every day, and during this time, he has a rare peace of mind, sorting out the past manuscripts one by one, and has sorted out twenty-five volumes of articles. He was going to send it to Li Ji's printing workshop for engraving and printing, although there was a conflict with Li Chao's governing philosophy, but Li Ji's printing workshop was still the best.

"Grandpa, the angel has arrived, come to announce the decree." The butler came panting.

"Angelic decree?" Chen Shuda was puzzled.

Recently, he has been in the study every day, not disturbing people, and has been cut off from the outside world.

"Grandpa doesn't know, Li Xiang and Ma Xiang have resigned, and now Your Majesty wants to reinstate Grandpa as Shang Shuling." The housekeeper said happily.

Chen Shuda was stunned.

"Li Chao and Ma Zhou resigned to go to each other? Why? ”

"It seems that because Li Xiang wanted to kill Hou Junji, His Majesty refused, and then Li Xiang resigned, and then Ma Xiang also resigned. Now His Majesty has issued an order to let the grandfather reinstate him as the secretary of the book, and let the prince of the Song Kingdom Xiao Xiang serve as the right servant, and then invite Dai Shaoqing to serve as the secretary of the household department. ”

This news really surprised Chen Shuda.

He remembered that a few days ago, didn't Li Chao just triumph, and then he was extremely glorious, by the way, it seemed that Li Chao had also accepted Fan Yang's Lu family's concubine as a concubine, which caused Xiangyang to be amazed, and the Li family also sent him an invitation, but he didn't have time to go, and he asked people to send gifts.

Why, all of a sudden, Li Chao resigned and went to the prime minister, and His Majesty actually remembered him again.

"By the way, has Your Majesty returned to the court?"

"How do these old slaves know, grandpa still goes to greet the angel first, don't make people wait for a long time."

Chen Shuda put down the scroll in his hand, "Put the incense case and welcome the holy decree." ”
