Five hundred and forty-six emperors involuntarily
His Majesty Li Er, who participated in the quarrel meeting of the ministers in the court, returned to the bedroom with exhaustion. Today's government affairs are still very busy. Since the Zhenguan reform plan was launched, he has declared that those who advised were not guilty and those who adopted the reform measures were rewarded. These new reform measures were proposed one by one by one by the ministers. The reform proposed by Suning was roughly improved and added with content. Once there are more content, there are more things. Once there are more things, it is easy to have no time to deal with them, and it is easy to breed bad situations such as quarrels.
For example, when discussing the specific details of the vegetable basket plan today, several officials started arguing. This said that livestock is not easy to obtain, not easy to raise, and it consumes too much. The livestock raised in his family is very expensive and not enough to eat. Another official said that you don’t know how to raise it, and it’s not the only way to raise it. After he went to the countryside to check it in person, he found that raising livestock is not difficult and not very expensive, and it can be promoted!
The other officials started talking and said it all, and soon the quarrel broke out. Finally, it was finally settled. His Majesty Li Er asked them to give sufficient arguments before they could be adopted. It was finally concluded that the quarrel was finally concluded. Then there were quarrels in detail after five or six reform measures were determined. After finally finalizing three specific measures, it was already setting.
His Majesty Li Er never felt that time passed so quickly. The morning court had just begun, and the sun was setting in the blink of an eye. When he touched his stomach, he felt hunger coming like a tide. He shook his head and went to Queen Changsun's harem, preparing for a good meal, then taking a nap, preparing for tomorrow's debate meeting... Yes, the court has become the scene of the debate competition.
However, this feeling is really good. Everyone is giving advice for the Tang Dynasty, and they just want to establish some good measures. This is beneficial to the Tang Dynasty and has no harm, and it is the same for the emperor. If there is a harmonious court, he needs to worry.
When he arrived at Empress Changsun's palace, His Majesty Li Er smelled the aroma of food in front of him. He couldn't help but move his index finger and walked in quickly, even avoiding the salute. He did not ask the palace servant to inform Empress Changsun. As soon as he entered the inner hall, he saw the dish plate and a shocked expression on his hand.
"Why don't your grandfather let the palace servants report here? I can go out to greet you." Empress Changsun said coquettishly. His Majesty Li Er smiled "hehe" and walked to the dining table and sat down. He picked up the chopsticks and started eating. He said while eating: "It's all a habit. There are quarrels in the court, and time is tight. In order to handle these things faster, you have to do anything faster. You don't have these red tape, just a waste of time."
Empress Changsun saw His Majesty Li Er's appearance of eating voraciously, quickly served a bowl of soup and handed it to His Majesty Li Er. Then she looked at His Majesty Li Er deeply and said, "Your Majesty has been busy all these days and can't see anyone. After seeing this, she has lost a lot of weight. Look, it's all here."
Empress Changsun brought a bronze mirror and pointed it at the ground to show His Majesty Li Er. His Majesty Li Er took a closer look. He swallowed the food in his mouth and smiled and said, "I have lost weight, but people in the world will gain weight. This is worth it. The most intense quarrel these days is how to improve the diet of the people in the Tang Dynasty. Didn't Suning say that eating oily food can save 60% of the food? As a result, someone tried it and found that it was indeed the case, so he began to study it in full swing. Finally, he proposed a plan to improve the diet of the people in the Tang Dynasty.
This quarrel made the sky dark and the earth dark. Farming is the foundation of the country, and this cannot be changed. Therefore, the quarrels are the most intense. From how to promote the cultivation of fruits and vegetables and livestock, the quarrels are almost started. These days, the generals have been hiding in the staff headquarters and not attending court. They are leisurely, but they have made me suffer!"
He shook his head, ate the last piece of rice in the bowl, and then extended the bowl to Queen Changsun and said, "Go another bowl."
Empress Changsun served His Majesty Li Er a bowl of rice and said with a smile: "Isn't this what Your Majesty hoped? The military and political affairs are separated, and the generals can handle military affairs, and let the civil servants deal with government affairs. The two have nothing to do with each other. Isn't this the best situation? After the establishment of the Generals' Headquarters, did Your Majesty say that the generals rarely come to court?"
His Majesty Li Er nodded and said, "It is indeed the case. Judging from the experience of the previous dynasty, whether it is the military commander or the military commander, for the country, not a good thing, only by performing their own duties is the best situation. Now this situation is hard-won, so I need to handle this situation more carefully. After dealing with it well, the Tang Dynasty will not be a dream, what do you think of Guanyin maid?"
Seeing His Majesty Li Er continue to eat voraciously, Empress Changsun felt a little distressed, so she changed the topic and said, "Your Majesty, let's not talk about these things. Tomorrow will be Suning's wedding. Your Majesty wants to go and see it. It's not a solution to always be stuck in the court. Suning's wedding has also specially allowed the exemption of curfew. The whole Chang'an is like the New Year, and it's very lively. The people I sent out to buy have bought a lot of different things, but they don't usually have one, such as this sea cucumber, which I just sent today."
His Majesty Li Er glanced at the dark fried sea cucumber. He wanted to ask what it was just now. He picked up a chopstick and bit it down. Well, it was delicious, very delicious. He nodded with a smile and asked, "How is Suning's wedding preparations? After all, it's also our royal family and his ministers who are married. This face is about to be fully displayed, so no mistake can be made."
Empress Changsun smiled and said, "That's true, Suning decided to invite all the students of the first phase of the Military University. The number of people seems to be almost two thousand, which is twice as many as other brothers. Many merchants in Chang'an City have bought everything from Suning and Xiaogong, and the people have also made a small amount of money."
His Majesty Li Er nodded with a smile and said, "That's right. Suning is a good guy to make money. I don't know how much money I have earned from the gentry and the barbarians in the north over the years. It's so rich. Our inner treasury has increased its income over the years. Thanks to his methods, it's also right to make a fortune for the people of Chang'an. After all, it's a royal wedding, so the face cannot be low, otherwise it will not look good.
Well, I did come up with a look and talk to those meritorious old ministers. It hasn't been like before for a long time, and the relationship has faded a little. This is not good, but now it is rumored that I have overpopularity of Suning, which seems not very good. Should I go there once?"
His Majesty Li Er seemed a little distressed, and Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Why should you worry about Your Majesty? After all, Xiaogong's daughter got married. As the master's family, what's so strange about him attending the wedding? As for Suning, his talent is indeed worthy of His Majesty's treatment, right? Didn't Your Majesty give Suning a sword? With Suning's intelligence, of course you can understand what Your Majesty means. Suning is a smart person. Isn't it?"
His Majesty Li Er nodded and smiled, "Well, that's right. This kid is a smart man. He knows how he should do things and be a human being. These things are first proposed by him, but now he hides behind and does not participate. He is smart, knows advance and retreat, knows what to do and what not to do. In this way, it's no wonder that the Su family has developed so quickly. He also proposed to me to increase the hierarchy of titles. I vaguely mentioned this to the old ministers. The old ministers seem to agree very much, it is true!"
Empress Changsun served His Majesty Li Er a bowl of rice and said, "Has your Majesty tested Suning for a long time? And he also planned to leave him to Chengqian for great use. Now he has no official position, only titles and medals, and his resume is still a blank piece of paper. He has experienced a lot. He is still underage. Although the limelight is a bit popular, he knows where he is, and he never forgets to tell His Majesty what he does, right? So there are so many officials who want to attend the wedding."
His Majesty Li Er took over the bowl and ate a big mouthful of sea cucumber. He said casually: "That's why I trust him so much. Most of the officials wanted to make friends with Suning because of this. Suning knows how to be a human being than a pharmacist, so don't worry. Let Chengqian go to the Su Mansion to help Suning support the scene tomorrow. You and I will wait until dusk before going to Xiaogong's mansion, so it's better to put on a posture. After all, the royal woman is getting married. It's not good to see if we don't show up. Is the gift being sent?"
Queen Changsun nodded and said, "I've sent it over. That little guy has relieved us a lot of problems. It's worth giving a generous gift. But Erlang and his father also gave a generous gift. It seems that my father also seems to be interested in attending Suning's wedding. In the past two days, he sent someone to ask me."
His Majesty Li Er paused, put down his bowl of rice, frowned and said, "It doesn't matter if I send a gift. My father and Suning have a good relationship. I just attended the wedding. There are so many people, I am really worried..."
Empress Changsun thought for a moment and said, "It's better for Your Majesty to invite your father to the wedding in person and then go to Xiaogong's mansion together. Your Majesty will accompany you throughout the journey, which will show the harmony between the father and son, avoid a lot of rumors and be safer at the same time, right?"
His Majesty Li Er thought for a moment, nodded and said, "This is also a good way. Well, let's just do it. Tomorrow, I'll give the court officials half a day off. There are many people who want to attend the wedding. Let's relax in the afternoon and go to the wedding together to give them enough face. They can do things in the future. As for the others, let's take a step by step!"
Empress Changsun smiled and said, "I don't know how many lifetimes of blessing Suning has cultivated to receive such care from His Majesty..."
His Majesty Li Er chuckled: "This is what he deserves. I give him everything I can. Next, it depends on his own. It is his own business. If he can go to the step I hope, it will only live up to my high hopes. If he can't go, that will disappoint me.
The old ministers of Zhenguan are all Chengqian's uncles. Without prestige and military merits, how can we control them? Once I leave, Chengqian is afraid that it will be difficult to deal with these things. Suning is a kid who is well aware of the way. It is even more rare that he is similar to Chengqian. I train him like this. With Suning's escort, Chengqian can survive the most difficult period. When the situation stabilizes, according to Suning's intelligence, he will probably retreat bravely. I will also give him some advice. It is not that easy to protect himself..."
Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Your Majesty is thorough in thinking, I admire you."
His Majesty Li Er shook his head: "I am just used to watching the tragedy of flying birds and hiding good bows in history books. I don't like this practice very much. However, after becoming the emperor, I found that many things were helpless. If the ministers and the emperor each took a step back, they would not be able to turn against each other and become enemies. Suning did a lot for the Tang Dynasty, and letting him live was a reward that the Tang Dynasty should give him.
