Datang: I show my cards, I am the emperor

Then Li Shimin told Empress Changsun about the relationship between him and Wang Chen, and finally sorted out the context before and after.

Empress Changsun also calmed down at this time, and sat on the chair and let out a sigh.

"Indeed, as Your Majesty said, it is a unicorn given by God, and God bless me in the Tang Dynasty. "

"With this great talent, I can ensure that my Datang will be stable and worry-free for a hundred years. "

Li Shimin nodded in agreement, and finally carefully rolled up the calligraphy and painting.

"So I must say that this painting is a treasure, and I don't think it's an exaggeration. "

"Maybe these words are not very valuable, but these three sentences are worth studying for future generations!"

Empress Eldest Sun smiled at this time and said, "Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. "

"Wang Chen is such a talented person in the country, well-known in the world, and a sensation in the whole country, but it is only a matter of time. "

"At that time, this word will be valuable, and besides, isn't there a seal of Your Majesty on it?"

"I think the heirloom is enough to deserve it. "

Li Shimin immediately burst out laughing.

"That's right, that's right, then I'll have to find someone to frame it tomorrow, it's a priceless treasure. "

"In the future, this painting will be hung in my study, and I can always be vigilant when I review and deal with government affairs. "

Empress Changsun also took the opportunity to pour a glass of wine for Li Shimin, and then filled her own wine glass.

"Then it seems that the concubine is ready for today's supper. "

"The concubine respects Your Majesty with a cup, congratulations to me that there are talents like Wei Zheng and Wang Chen in the Tang Dynasty!".

Li Shimin slapped his thigh and immediately picked up the wine glass.

"Well said, this cup should be drunk!".

After saying that the husband and wife respected each other, Li Shimin took a sip of the wine.

After putting down the wine glass, Li Shimin said to Empress Changsun: "When I have a chance next time, I will take you to the tavern of the king's shopkeeper for a meal." "

"Truth be told, his craft is nothing short of amazing. "

"You say that this kind of genius from heaven, why is it so far beyond ordinary people in all aspects, is it that God has such a love, and it combines the spirit of heaven and earth. "

"Eccentricity, God is really a little eccentric!".

Empress Eldest Sun looked at Li Shimin muttering to herself like a child, and couldn't help laughing.

"The concubine has agreed with His Majesty, and if she has the opportunity, she will definitely take the concubine to taste the craftsmanship of the king's shopkeeper. "

"The concubine really wants to witness with her own eyes what such a young handsome man looks like. "

......

Early the next morning, Li Shimin was woken up from his sleep by the palace people.

According to the regulations of the small court, today is a fixed day of the court, and all the officials above the fifth rank in Chang'an City will gather in the main hall.

Therefore, Li Shimin did not wake up the eldest grandson queen beside him, and quietly left the queen's bedroom.

After the bells and drums outside the palace hall rang out in unison and the sound vibrate, Li Shimin appeared on the imperial throne on time.

After the ministers shouted long live three times, Li Shimin's right hand was raised high.

In this way, the court meeting will officially begin.

It's just that before the civil and military officials below reported important matters, Li Shimin spoke first.

"Before we get down to business today, I'll announce one thing!"

"Where is Shangshu Zuo Cheng Wei Zheng, come out to listen to Xuan!".

Wei Zheng, who was in the team, immediately stood up respectfully and trotted forward a few steps.

"Minister Wei Zheng, waiting for the holy will!".

It's just that from an angle that no one can see, what emerges in Wei Zheng's eyes is a large area of loneliness.

Sure enough, his outspoken admonition finally angered His Majesty.

After all, the world still doesn't like to hear the truth. Even if the saint is as bright as the Son of Heaven.

Although I had expected such an ending today, time was inevitably coming too quickly.

The Son of Heaven promoted himself from the ranks of the criminals and entrusted him with important tasks.

Wei Zheng swore that he would be a loyal minister and a direct minister in his life.

Therefore, he repeatedly said things that Li Shimin did not like to hear, and he also repeatedly played exhortations.

He is not afraid of death, nor is he afraid of being dismissed from office, from the moment he made up his mind to say something that the emperor did not like to hear, Wei Zheng estimated that his fate would not be too good.

Therefore, it is only natural for His Majesty to depose himself today.

Soon, Li Shimin's voice came from Wei Zheng's ears.

"Shangshu Zuo Cheng Wei Zheng, upright, dare to speak out, for my Tang first-class loyalty. "

"It is rare to be so loyal and persuading me to behave inappropriately. "

"Today, I issued an edict, ordering Shangshu Zuo Cheng Wei to guard the secretary and superintendent, to privilege the right to participate in politics, and to and from the palace in the province of Zhongshu, you can read and investigate. "

Li Shimin's few words, listening to Wei Zheng's ears, were like thunder on a sunny day.

He even suspected that he had misheard, and couldn't help but raise his head and look at Li Shimin with some excitement and trembling.

"Why Wei Zheng, do you think there is anything wrong with my appointment?"

Only then did Wei Zheng be convinced that he had heard correctly.

Not only was he not demoted, but he was also heavily promoted.

Participating in the guarding of the secretary and prison, which shows that he is already a confidant of the emperor, although the grade is not as good as the six Shangshu, but in terms of specific rights, he is already one of the cores of political participation.

Wei Zheng only felt tears welling up in his eyes.
