First Minister of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 480 Bastard Gao Yanzhang

...

Hearing Gao Chong's words that directly hit people's hearts, Li Shimin couldn't help being stunned.

Dou Gui is Li Shimin's uncle, and he is an absolute confidant, what if Dou Gui wants to help Li Shimin.

Li Shimin quickly figured out the reason. He cared about his uncle's face and didn't defend Wei Yunqi.

If Dou Gui's comprehension is wrong, firstly he thinks that Wei Yunqi is a partisan of Jiancheng, and secondly he thinks that this is a hidden signal sent by Li Shimin, and directly attack Wei Yunqi, wouldn't it be a huge misunderstanding.

Seeing Li Shimin frowning in thought, Gao Chong continued: "As His Highness's confidantes, we should eliminate all suspicious enemies for His Highness, but Wei Yunqi is only due to his personality, not the potential enemy.

Furthermore, Wei Yunqi is not a mediocre person when he agrees with literature and martial arts, if there is a dispute between the two, there must be something wrong."

Li Shimin slapped the railing by the lake, looked up at Gao Chong, "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have made a big mistake."

While talking, he hurried back to the hall, picked up a pen and quickly wrote down a decree: "Ananda, spread it to Yizhou as quickly as possible."

Zhang Anan didn't dare to delay and executed it quickly.

Li Shimin sighed, "You must have known what I meant earlier, don't you think it's too heartless?"

Gao Chong put his hands behind his back and smiled, "Your Highness's words are serious, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself, especially in this sensitive period.

After all, people's hearts are emotional, and it is inevitable that there will be differences between closeness and intimacy, but His Highness is destined to be the master of the world, and bear the weight of the Tang Dynasty. As the saying goes, the royal family is no small matter, and your every move is related to millions of people, so there should be no such thing. There is a difference between closeness and estrangement, and the people of the world should love each other as one."

Li Shimin was thoughtful, and Gao Chong continued: "Before, Duke Feng was your uncle, and Wei Yunqi was a neutral feudal official, so Duke Feng is naturally closer, but now, we all have the same status. They are all subjects of the Tang Dynasty, that’s all.”

Gao Chong's words stand on the commanding heights of morality, which is really impeccable, but in fact, no matter when, people will always have a distinction between closeness and closeness, otherwise everyone would not be vying to make contributions to the dragon, Gao Chong This is a vested interest, because he has a close relationship with Li Shimin, so he is highly valued.

But these words are not problematic from the standpoint of the Lord of the World. After all, a qualified emperor cannot act according to his inner preferences.

Perhaps to put it more bluntly, Li Shimin is already a powerful person in power in the Tang Dynasty. If he now allows Dou Gui to target Wei Yunqi just because of his close relationship with Dou Gui, wouldn't the situation be too small.

Li Shimin got up and bowed deeply to Gao Chong, "I have been taught".

Gao Chong hastily turned sideways to avoid it, he was a little embarrassed, but he felt a little dark in his heart. Standing on the commanding heights of morality and pointing out the country, it was irrefutable, and it felt really good.

Although Gao Chong's remonstrance was not simple, what Gao Chong didn't expect was that Li Shimin was greatly touched by these words.

Later, Li Shimin uttered a famous saying in public: "Since ancient times, China has been valued and barbarians have been despised, and I only love them as one."

And emphatically emphasized that on that night, Gao Chong, who was then the Minister of Dali Temple, went to the palace overnight to persuade him to understand the truth that "all the people in the world should love each other as one".

The next day, Li Shimin immediately announced his intention to promote Wei Yunqi, Minister of the Daoxingtai Military Department of Yizhou, to the Minister of the Daxingtai Military Department of Eastern Shaanxi Province, and assist Qu Tutong, the left servant of Eastern Shaanxi Daoxingtai, to guard Luoyang.

There are basically no fools who are officials in the center of the imperial court. As soon as the decree is issued, many people immediately understand the reason, and after further inquiry, the truth will be revealed.

That night, Wei Yunqi's eldest brother, Secretary Supervisor Wei Yunbiao, and his third brother, Duzhi Langzhong Wei Yunping, came to Duke Yan's mansion to pay their respects.

If Li Shimin continues to keep Wei Yunqi in Yizhou and sit back and watch the two fight, it is obvious that Wei Yunqi will be more or less fortunate.

Forging good karma, Gao Chong's first goal has been achieved.

Just as Wei Gui was about to give birth, Gao Chong entertained the Wei family in Beijing at his residence, which was considered a family feast.

Everyone could see what Gao Chong meant. They didn't despise Wei Gui because she was a remarried concubine. Instead, they wanted to pave the way for this concubine or daughter who was about to be born. Now that the Gao family is in full swing, the Wei family naturally went to the banquet happily.

People such as Wei Ting, Wei Yunbiao, Wei Siyan and others were all present, and without exception, all of them gave Wei Gui generous gifts, which moved Wei Gui deeply. Because of the attention of her natal family.

The struggle between the aristocratic and powerful families is extremely tragic, no less than the battle for the royal family. At that time, Duke Wei Yuancheng of the State of Yun had no children. As the only child, Wei Gui could really feel the warmth and warmth from the clan.

On the third day of the banquet for the Wei family, Wei Gui gave birth to a son smoothly, and Gao Junya named him Yanzhang.

Although Gao Yanzhang was a concubine, the treatment was really not low. After his birth, not only Li Shimin gave gifts, but also everyone from the Wei family came to congratulate him. The Wei family brothers loved this nephew very much.

Those who are interested can't help but re-examine the Wei family. The Wei family spared no effort to support Li Jiancheng before. .

But now it seems that Li Shimin recalled Wei Ting, worshiped him as a doctor of the Ministry of Officials, and transferred Wei Yunqi to guard Luoyang and take charge of the military affairs of Eastern Shaanxi Province. signs.

In Yizhou, after Dou Gui received Li Shimin's secret letter a few days ago, he saw that Li Shimin's letter had no intention of defending Wei Yunqi. As a partisan of Jiancheng, he immediately convened the Yizhou Taoist officials to discuss the matter. Of course, Wei Yunqi was not notified.

Dou Gui's character is straightforward at best, and paranoid at worst. The person he feels suspicious of me must be a guilty person, and he will not pretend to be false, but show it directly.

For example, Xingtai Shangshu Guo Xingfang and Xingtai Langzhong Zhao Hongan are friends with Wei Yunqi, especially Zhao Hongan, who was whipped by Dou Gui many times because of his poor handling of affairs, so Wei Guo and Zhao San were not informed of this meeting people.

The officialdom in Yizhou is not big, it is a world of its own, and there are no secrets at all.

A letter from Chang'an, the news that Dou Gui convened the officials to discuss the matter Although Dou Gui deliberately concealed it, there is no impenetrable wall in the world.

Xingtai doctor Zhao Hong'an learned of this at the first time, and he was terrified in his heart. He was really frightened by Dou Gui's beating, because Dou Gui could really kill people.

After thinking about it, Zhao Hongan went to look for Wei Yunqi and reported the matter.

　Only then did I realize that the titles of the previous dozens of chapters were written wrongly. I have reached chapter 470 and I have written chapters 370 and [-]. Because the chapters are locked, the previous ones cannot be modified, so I can only correct them from now on, without affecting reading, so don’t blame me.

　　Also, my aunt came recently, so it’s a little unstable, I’ll adjust my status as soon as possible, and there will be recommendations next week, and the liver will be updated.
