Chapter 424
Among the prime ministers in the court, Fang Xuanling has the best popularity. Everyone says that he is generous and considerate.

Who is that? It turned out to be Du Ruhui, the Duke of Lai. Some people say that he is an unreasonable, domineering guy. As long as he catches evidence of your crime, he will definitely deal with it in the most severe way first, and then To hear about the emperor.

At the beginning, Li Chengqian also persuaded him, prime minister, be more modest, otherwise how can he help the emperor in military and state affairs.

But Lao Du taught Li Chengqian a lesson. He said: It is not easy to establish a country, but it is even more difficult to govern the world. After a long period of peace, officials will inevitably feel negligent, but military affairs are closely related to the national economy and people's livelihood. A bunch of people have to starve to death.

Therefore, it is better to use the knife once than to teach a hundred times, and let the bloody smell remind them to always remember the grace of His Majesty's grace as an official, otherwise it will be a wooden coffin to let them know that the common people kowtow, and there is a price.

There is nothing wrong with what Lao Du said. Even if he heard someone speak ill of Lao Du behind his back, Li Chengqian would not raise his head or open his eyes as if he didn't hear it. What's the matter!
However, with today's test, Li Chengqian has to say that the two of them are really kicking, they are not good cakes at all, and they are not really married to a princess. As for playing with others like this?
Just when Li Chengqian was thinking, the envoys from various countries below made them play badly, and the emperor sitting in the dragon chair watched them circling in circles with a smile.

The first competition is that the satin wears the nine-curved pearl, that is, a soft satin is passed through the nine-curved eyelet of the pearl.After the competition started, envoys from Tianzhu, Dashi, Zhonggesar and other countries rushed over first, but the eyes on the beads were too small, and the satin was too big, which was impossible no matter what. thing.

But when everyone was racking their brains, Gar Dongzan, who had been silent all this time, came under a big tree, carefully grabbed an ant and held it in his hands.Afterwards, he swaggered into the crowd and snatched the pearl from the hand of the Great Food Messenger, and asked the servant for honey and silk thread.

Then he sat on the ground, tied one end of the silk thread around the ant's waist, and sewed the other end on the silk satin, singing jerky and incomprehensible Tubo songs, and then smeared honey on the end of the nine-curved eyelet. Ants on the other side.

The ants who smelled the fragrance of honey took the silk thread and slowly crawled out from the other side along the curved hole, and the satin also passed through the nine-curved pearl along with the silk thread.

Seeing that Lu Dongzan solved the problem so easily, the emperor stepped up while sitting on the dragon chair. He pointed to Zheng Rentai who was standing next to him, and then the old boy ran out quickly.After a while, a large number of guards rushed over, a large number of mules and horses and baskets of chickens and cages, so that the people present looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one knew what the emperor meant.

Then I heard the emperor leaning on the case, slightly sad, and said with a mournful face: "In life between heaven and earth, the closest relatives are parents and children. Emperor Taiwu passed away this year, and Empress Taimu passed away early. I Even if you want to be more filial, you will have no chance.”

Well, seeing that the emperor didn't intend to continue talking, many courtiers understood what he meant. This is waiting for people to flatter them, but this kind of flattery is not for everyone. I didn't look at the prince and the prime ministers. Didn't you talk?This is also to separate the big and small heads, otherwise who knows when they will wear small shoes for themselves!

However, Fang, Du and the others are all shameless guys. Even in front of officials and envoys, they can't speak too unconscionably, so they all keep their heads down and pretend to be confused. People who can't eat are said to be sycophants and flatterers, otherwise, how can they convince the public in the future.

At this moment, Li Chengqian took a step back without losing his composure, pulled Li You's skirt quietly, and said in a low voice, "Fifth son, go, praise your father's filial piety."

"Brother, didn't you say that you should be an honest minister? Why do you want to flatter? Uh, and this makes the courtiers laugh at me?"

"Don't say anything, I'll let you go. The book of your marriage with Miss Yu's family is in the hands of the emperor. You want to save face, or you want to be a mother-in-law. You choose!" After finishing speaking, Li Chengqian pinched him. For a moment, this bastard has grown so much flesh, why doesn't his brain grow!
Under Li Chengqian's reminder, Li You hurriedly stepped out of the class, took two steps forward, bowed down to the floating dust, and said sincerely: "For those who are relatives, you should be at peace no matter where you are. Filial piety is the most important thing. The filial piety of the emperor is so moving." , It can be an example for the people of the world. My son is willing to copy the "Book of Filial Piety" a hundred times on behalf of his father, enshrine it in front of the altar, and pray for Emperor Taiwu and Empress Taimu."

Hehe, after listening to Li You's compliment, the emperor sitting on the dragon chair laughed heartily, pointed at the ground where Li You bowed down and said to the officials: "See, my unworthy son has grown up too!" , I know that I love my father. Okay, okay, okay, fifth child, I understand your filial piety, it seems that it is right to entrust you to Gao Ming to teach you, okay."

After the emperor finished speaking, the courtiers congratulated the emperor one after another. The father of the heavenly family is kind, his son is filial, and his brothers and brothers are respectful. He is an example for the world. With such a royal family, the society of the Tang Dynasty will be as stable as Mount Tai, and the country will be more prosperous.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor asked the second question. He believed that all things are born with love, and the same is true for livestock, so he asked to identify the mother-child relationship between a hundred stallions and a hundred foals, and identify the hundred horses. The relationship between a chick and a hundred hens.

But I saw that the messengers took turns to identify, some were distinguished by fur color, some were matched by old and young, some were compared by height, and some were distinguished by weight, but they were all wrong, and finally it was Gar Dongzan's turn. When it was time, this guy didn't even look forward, he stepped forward confidently and saluted the emperor.

"The foreign minister thought that if all the mares and foals were kept separately, and the foals were only given feed and no water to drink during the day, and the foals were returned to the horse clan the next day, they would definitely be jealous. Forbearance, they must have found their respective mothers to suckle, so they can easily identify their mother-child relationship,..."

After hearing Lu Dongzan's answer, Li Shimin's face suddenly changed, but it was only for a moment, and then he returned to normal, and then said in a deep voice: "Today's two Tubo envoys beat all the heroes, so it can be seen that Tubo Zanpu has some Knowing people, I also feel the same joy." After speaking, he waved his hand, indicating that today's assessment is over.
