Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 273 Wei Zheng's stick and jujube
The news that the emperor killed his internal officials because he favored his concubine Zheng Chonghua soon spread throughout the government and the public, and the courtiers were also discussing it. Some people even said that according to this development, the position of imperial concubine left by Webster would sooner or later be the concubine. Chinese.It seems that in the future, I really have to get close to Zheng Renji, the right servant of the household department, maybe I will ask him that day.

Of course, the emperor's move completely angered Old Wei Zheng, and after writing hard at Yushitai, he rushed to Chengqing Hall with his notebook.After seeing the ceremony, Wei Zheng took out this chapter and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, this is the chapter of my minister's admonishment, please read it." After speaking, he handed this chapter to Gan Yun for him to submit it on his behalf.

Seeing the old man Wei tweeting and tweeting, Li Shimin felt a headache for a while, and he knew that it would be a bad thing if the old man made admonishment.Immediately, he turned to his home rather helplessly, and frowned after reading a few lines.

The memorial said: I have served Wei Wei for nearly ten years, and your Majesty Xu Chen has kept it with the way of benevolence and righteousness.Thrifty and simple, always faithful.The sound of virtue is in my ears, I dare not forget it.For a long time, the immersion cannot end.I would like to use the article, the benefit is ten thousand.

At the beginning of Zhenguan, His Majesty was pure and ascetic, and turned into a wilderness.Today, envoys are sent thousands of miles away to search for horses and visit strange treasures.In the past, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty had a thousand-mile horse, and Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty burned the pheasant's head fur.Your Majesty often discusses, far away from Yao and Shun, and what he is doing now, does he want to be under Hanwen, Jinwu?This cannot end gradually.

At the beginning of Zhenguan, there were frequent frosts and droughts, and the household registrations in the territory were all outside the customs. They brought the old and the young, and traveled for several years, and none of the households died.This is your Majesty's nurturing and caressing, so I will not carry the two with me when I die.Compared with those who are tired of corvee, the people in Guanzhong are especially hard-working.At the moment, the handyman doesn't care about it.

When the soldiers come, don't drive away again.The things in the market belong to the store, and the son looks back at the road.If you don't reap a grain of rice, the hearts of the people may not be as good as the day before.This cannot be done gradually.

There is no way to misfortune or good fortune, but only at the call of others. There is no provocation, and no demon will act rashly.Today, the disaster of drought is far away from the prefectures and countries, and the evil and ugly evils rise from the hub.During the thousand-year break, the time is hard to come by again, the wise master can do what he can, and the ministers are also depressed and sigh!

It is said that a good article can revive the dead and give birth to bones. Wei Zheng's article is definitely a first-class article, but for today's emperor, he can't arouse the interest of praising him, because this article says everything. It was his fault.

The embarrassing Li Shimin didn't know what to say, so he said casually: "Xuan Cheng, this is a good article, and it also corrected my mistakes. I am very relieved."

Seeing that the emperor's words were indifferent, Wei Zheng took another step forward, cupped his hands and said, "The old minister heard that His Majesty killed the internal official Wu Zheng because of Zheng's stick, and the ministers in the court talked a lot about it."

"Xuan Cheng, does the Son of Heaven not even have the right to discipline his servants? Besides, the matter of Concubine Zheng is my family matter, and Qing is a foreign minister. Isn't it inappropriate to say something about this?"

Why is this Wei Zheng so closed-minded? It’s okay to write this chapter to accuse me of my faults. Now I even have to take care of my family affairs, and this old man didn’t do it once or twice. What is he doing? Does he not see me in his eyes? Son of Heaven?
If he was afraid of being punished for his words, then Wei Zheng would not be in this chapter. Besides, if the emperor doesn't accept his temperament, he will harm the world in the future.

Thinking of this, Wei Zheng raised his head to meet the emperor's eyes, and said: "Your Majesty's family affairs, of course, I have nothing to do with it, but there is an incident in the palace where the concubine is favored and arrogant, and I have to remind Your Majesty. Chu The favored concubine of King Huai, Zheng Xiu is beautiful, intelligent, and ready to change.

But he is jealous, cunning, sinister and vicious, and extremely scheming.Zheng Xiu interfered in the government affairs, accepted bribes, colluded with Jin Shang, and framed Qu Yuan, causing Qu Yuan to be exiled and let Zhang Yi go.Let the state of Chu finally "soldiers defeat the land, destroy its six counties, and its guests die in Qin, making the world laugh."

Today, the Zheng family is full of intelligence and beauty, which is no less beautiful than Zheng Xiu. He is in the political hall, interfering with the emperor, and the ministers avoid her when they meet the emperor. "

If it was said that Wei Zheng stepped down from the emperor's face just now, he just cut off a few more pieces of meat with a knife.

"Xuancheng, have you said that too much? Don't say that Concubine Zheng is not such a demon concubine. Could it be that I am such a senseless and stupid king like King Huai of Chu?" Wei Zheng.

He didn't understand that he just favored and trusted an ordinary concubine, so he used it to guard against inevitability. Could it be that the country I conquered is so fragile that a little girl can control and shake it?
"The minister is the leader of the officials, and it is the duty of the minister to face the emperor's faults. Even a remote master like Liu Bei knows that being close to a virtuous minister and keeping a small person away from a small person is the way to the prosperity of a country, let alone such a majesty, the Holy Lord of Kyushu. Since His Majesty can accept the remonstrance in the minister's memorial, then this suggestion is no longer necessary."

Wei Zheng made a sharp turn, but he flashed Li Shimin's waist fiercely. He originally thought that the old man would have a big fight with him, but he didn't expect the old man to turn so fast, and took a photo My flattery, the fire that just started has also disappeared for the most part.

Thinking about it carefully, what Old Wei said was right, this Chengqing Palace is the place where the emperor and his ministers discuss matters.Although there is no palace rule saying that concubines cannot come here, it is really inconvenient.

Let's just talk about the queen, when there is no major event, she dare not set foot here easily, because she is afraid that the etiquette of the harem will delay the ministers from speaking.

Seeing that the emperor was silent, Wei Zheng went on to say: "I heard that your majesty is extravagant because of Concubine Zheng, and the cost is immeasurable. You are the king of a country, so when you start, the government and the people will inevitably follow suit, and it will inevitably form a kind of extravagance. What will this country become like?
When Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was on a tour, he was punished for not offering food or tributes every time he went to a place.Such an unrestricted pursuit of enjoyment has resulted in the common people being unable to afford it, leading to changes in people's minds and loss of the country.So what your Majesty is doing today is not following the example of Sui Yang Emperor?"

People have desires, and so do emperors. Li Shimin and Yang Guang have too many similarities, so their desires are equally strong.Wei Zheng had to remind the emperor that he should have a heart of contentment and constant happiness. If he insisted on going his own way, he would be like Yang Guang, and his desires would be hard to fill. Then the Tang Dynasty would die like the previous Sui Dynasty.

After a while, Li Shimin stroked Wei Zheng's hand, motioned him to sit down first, and then said in a gentle voice: "I've heard it before, and I hope to change it so that I can end up in a better way. If it goes against this statement, how can I show my face to meet you?" Hey! Fang took what he said to be sparse and listed it as a barrier, and the common people saw it day and night, and recorded it to the official historian, so that all generations can know the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers.

In addition, a decree was issued that from today onwards, concubines and concubines in the harem are not allowed to enter the Chengqing Palace if they have nothing important to do. You have good advice and will give you ten catties of gold and two horses. ".
