Chapter 329: Waves (2)
"Your Majesty, I think the prince's proposal is not possible!"
As soon as Li Jiancheng finished speaking, someone immediately jumped out to object. When Li Jiancheng saw it, hehe, Kong Siying was really up to him.
Li Yuan asked with a plain face: "There are still people who are interested in the Qing family?"
After hearing Li Yuan’s question, the ministers below looked at each other. This made them confused. Anyone who could go to court later would like to go to court later, and who would object? Moreover, this was proposed by the future emperor, the current crown prince.
However, Li Yuan, who is the boss, has no intention of saying anything. What should we do if these old fox guys who have been in the officialdom for many years?
If the prince agrees and the emperor opposes, they are not seeking death? If the emperor agrees, they will even seek death. It is difficult for the emperor to offend the emperor and the prince to die at the same time. Therefore, many ministers turned their attention to several founding ministers Pei Ji, Tang Jian, Liu Hongji and others.
Li Yuan, who was sitting in the upper head, naturally brought the reactions of the officials below to his eyes. Most of the officials who showed a confused look and only wanted to not make mistakes were basically left by the former Sui Dynasty, while some were selected when the Tang Dynasty was established. And there were many of those with solemn eyes and thoughtful thoughts.
For example, Pei Ji, Liu Hongji and other founding fathers. Of course, those from Li Shimin's Qin Palace, such as Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji, etc., also had ideas, but they lacked qualifications and naturally had no say.
Pei Ji was also very conscious as one of the founding fathers.
"Your Majesty, I believe that since Your Highness the Crown Prince has made this request, I think it is not aimless. I think that after Your Highness explains the reason, I will make an opinion later."
After saying that, Pei Ji quietly stood back to his position, as if there was only a small matter in front of him. But speaking of it, this was indeed not a big matter. He just expressed his own opinions. However, many officials still looked confused and looked at him at a loss for such a small matter.
Thinking of this, Li Yuan was dissatisfied. He even more recognized Li Jiancheng for the reforms he proposed. How many of these officials can truly be?
"Your Majesty, Lord Kong's objection is reasonable. I think it is reasonable. I believe that Lord Kong can also tell his reasons, and then I will make a decision."
Liu Hongji followed Pei Ji and expressed his views.
"I'm going to discuss it!"
After the two of them finished speaking, all the ministers kowtowed and agreed. Seeing this, Li Yuan was even more dissatisfied.
Although he was dissatisfied, there was no change on his face. After waved his hand and letting the civil and military officials calm down, he turned his head to look at Li Jiancheng and Kong Siying and said, "Kong Jijiu, the emperor, since that's the case, you two will tell what you want, and then all officials will evaluate it and finally decide whether to postpone the morning court."
Hearing Li Yuan's words, the civil and military officials calmed down and looked at Li Jiancheng and Kong Siying.
Under the eyes of everyone, Kong Siying walked out naturally, and did not want to let the other party speak first because Li Jiancheng was the prince.
Seeing his actions, some of the officials shook their heads speechlessly.
No matter how you are a descendant of Confucius, you should respect the crown prince. Not to mention that you are not a person like Confucius, even if you are really, what are you and the emperor's son Niu? After seeing him, the officials looked at Li Jiancheng again, wanting to know how his reaction was.
However, beyond many people's expectations, Li Jiancheng just smiled faintly and was not angry. In his eyes, Kong Siying was just a guy who relied on his seniority to be a descendant of Confucius. In layman's terms, he pretended to be a b.
After quenching his head towards Li Yuan, Kong Siying said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the ancients said, "Hearing a chicken to dance". Even if we can't do it, we can't be much worse. At the time of Mao, the officials at the court seemed to be much worse than those of our predecessors. If we postpone it, wouldn't we be even more unbearable?"
People often say that "smelling the chicken to dance" and think it is at four or five in the morning. In fact, it is not the case. Generally, the rooster crowing will sound at one or two in the morning, while Zu Ti, the protagonist of "smelling the chicken to dance", gets up to practice martial arts at one or two o'clock every day.
Of course, people at that time did not have electricity, and there were not many entertainment programs. They basically went to bed at six or seven o'clock in the evening. Therefore, it was not a big problem to wake up at one or two o'clock in the morning. This is also the reason why the ancients were able to get up at the Yin hour and the Mao hour and go to the morning court.
However, after hearing Kong Siying's words, many ministers were still very dissatisfied.
Your sister, now it's tiring to get up at Yin and go to the morning court every day. Do you still want to "dance with the chicken" like the ancients? If you miss, go by yourself, don't pull us. After Kong Siying's words, many officials have decided to agree with Li Jiancheng's point of view later.
Speaking of which, Kong Siying's character is really not good.
Who is Kong Siying?
The Imperial College Priest, which is equivalent to the principal of Tsinghua University and Peking University. In addition, he is a descendant of Confucius, so this guy usually looks at people with his chin, so he is not very popular. If he hadn't been the Imperial College Priest Priest, many ministers would have to study in it, and there might not be anyone else.
"Um!"
After hearing Kong Siying's words, Li Yuan nodded slightly, and seemed quite satisfied. His actions immediately made many officials' brains rotate very quickly...
"Father, son ministers think that delaying the morning court time is inevitable." Li Jiancheng said with a serious face, and then explained under the gaze of everyone: "I believe many ministers are similar. Every morning court, their minds are a little confused. Sometimes they don't even know what they have said or done. How can they be in a state of administration?"
Although the minister felt that Li Jiancheng's words were reasonable, he did not dare to agree. Just kidding, if he agreed, it would not mean that he was not in a state when he was doing things before? This is not seeking death.
"And I have read through many ancient books and a hundred schools of miscellaneous studies. These all show that if you want to have a clear brain, you have to sleep for at least four to five hours a day. This will not only help you extend your life, but also make you feel energetic every day."
After hearing Li Jiancheng's words, all the ministers were a little moved.
You should know that people in ancient times basically lived to be fifty years old. Being able to pass fifty years old is called knowing destiny. Those who are sixty or seventy years old are treasure-level figures, and after a hundred years old, they are all gods.
Before the Qing Dynasty, Qianlong even opened a special party for the centenarians to participate.
Now, after hearing what Li Jiancheng said, sleep is related to lifespan, everyone is moved, especially those with status, who want to live longer.
However, as Li Jiancheng's words ended, Li Yuan, who was in the lead, looked a little ugly, and seemed not very satisfied with Li Jiancheng's reasons.
"Hit!"
Seeing Li Yuan's reaction, many ministers were shocked and immediately "understand" how they should make a decision.
"Kong Jijiu and the emperor both finished their reasons. So can all the dear ministers decide whether to postpone the court or not?" Li Yuan asked with a plain face, but his previous reaction was seen by many ministers. Therefore, the ministers who thought they knew the situation immediately made a decision.
"I think Master Kong's words are reasonable!"
"I think what the Crown Prince says is feasible!"
After Li Yuan finished speaking, the ministers below were divided into two groups, one group supported Kong Siying, with the largest number, accounting for 70% of all ministers; and the remaining 30% supported Li Jiancheng, founding fathers Pei Ji, Liu Hongji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji and others from the Qin Palace were also included.
Although it was the minister who gave his advice, everyone knew that the real decision was still in Li Yuan's hands.
"Since that's the case..." Li Yuan paused and then continued, "For the sake of the lives and health of the ministers, and the people of the world, the morning court time will be postponed from tomorrow, and it will be changed to halfway through Chen time."
Who likes to leave the bed so early? Is it because my son is caring and gives your father and I more time to spend with your mother? Li Yuan thought so in his heart.
After hearing Li Yuan’s decision, many ministers were stunned. What is the situation?
It was obvious that Li Yuan's face was not good when Li Jiancheng said his reasons, so why did he end up...
Seeing Li Yuan's expression on the dragon throne, the officials felt that they had been cheated, but no one dared to say anything. Who told me that the emperor was the one who cheated him?
Seeing that Li Yuan had made a decision, Kong Siying stopped talking. The prince suggested that he could object, but he knew that the emperor's decision was not something he could change. He had a proud identity, but he dared not use it on the emperor.
Because the prince may not become the emperor in the future, he may not have to respect him so much, but the emperor is already in front of him!
