Three whips break the father-son relationship, please call me prince

Chapter 190 The Tang Dynasty Spirit with Li Shimin as the Core
Li Shimin's body swayed slightly, and then he leaned on the armrest, holding his forehead with one hand, looking sideways at Wei Zheng, his eyes filled with shock and anger.

The conversation between the two was translated.

Li Shimin: You have no father!
Wei Zheng: You are my father!
The term "Junfu" appeared during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty and referred to the emperor.

But this time Wei Zheng made it concrete and formally established the concept of monarch and father.

Li Shimin had no way to refute, nor did he have any reason to refute.

From his imperial perspective, he was not wrong as a king and father.

This kind of relationship between the ruler and the father is also necessary.

The emperor governs the people, and all the people in the world are the emperor’s subjects.

Wei Zheng's words "king and father" broke his defense, but then added another layer of armor to him.

"Why would I bother him?"

After Li Shimin calmed down, he didn't know whether to regret or be grateful.

I feel awkward at this moment.

If he scolded Wei Zheng again, how would this incident between the emperor and his father be recorded in history books?
Good things will turn into bad things.

For this matter, Wei Zheng will be praised by later generations.

If he denies the relationship between the monarch and his father, he would be destroying his own Great Wall.

Can't do it!
I really can't do it.

Let the prince deal with him.

Prince, please come out.

Don't be silent.

I know you're watching the show!
If I don't come out, I'll live in Bengbu.

Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian eagerly, hoping that he would come out to save the situation.

I don’t know if Li Chengqian felt the call.

He suddenly stood up and walked towards Wei Zheng.

"Teacher!"

Li Chengqian helped Wei Zheng up, his eyes were very complicated, "Since you regard Your Majesty as your king and father, why do you put your king and father in an unkind and unjust situation?"

"This is not the moral character and behavior that a subject should have."

Wei Zheng wanted to say something, but was interrupted by him, not giving him a chance to speak.

"I didn't think this through carefully."

Li Chengqian looked at the ministers and said, "No detailed explanation was given as to why this was so."

"Master, please sit down first. I will explain it to you."

Wei Zheng wiped his eyes, bowed, and took his seat.

Li Chengqian also returned to his seat and said, "I left the prince in Beijing, and I know the unknown changes that may come."

"But what I want is to set an example among my generation."

"Besides, the prince is in Beijing, and I am also prepared to abolish all the fiefs of the princes and princes."

He didn't want to reveal the subsequent actions so quickly.

But things had come to this, he had no choice but to do it.

In order to resolve the matter satisfactorily.

The ministers were not given a chance to speak.

Wei Zheng's words, which he said alone, were equivalent to a disguised accusation of disloyalty by all the ministers.

How can the ministers bear such an infamy?
They will definitely speak out, and if they stand up for this, things will be difficult to proceed.

That's why Li Chengqian took the initiative and took over the conversation, not giving them a chance to speak.

Then, it's his turn to shine.

Those who need to be comforted should be comforted, and those who need to be explained should be explained.

really.

When they heard about Li Chengqian's subsequent actions, all the ministers were shocked.

Even Li Shimin looked at him many times, but he didn't know about this beforehand.

He frowned slightly, then immediately understood.

The situation was urgent and the prince had no way to negotiate with him.

Li Xiaogong and others were stunned. If the prince's fiefdom was taken away, what would they, the princes of the counties, say then?
"I once discussed the Book of Rites with many famous scholars in the Tianqi Hall."

"Among them, there is a debate on whether to seal the inside or outside."

Li Chengqian laid it all out, and said slowly: "The Tang Dynasty is determined to create an unprecedented prosperity, and also upholds the grand desire to explore and develop."

"This goal and spirit are being implemented by all civil and military officials, including your majesty and me, and we are moving forward with determination."

"The Grand Tutor is a loyal minister with his own integrity and persistence."

"But I want to remind you, Master, that you need to understand the spirit of the Tang Dynasty. Being conservative and cautious is a good thing, but being complacent and thinking that you are the only one who is sober while everyone else is drunk is not a good idea."

He had to shut up his ministers. The ministers kept silent, which meant they had understood the essence of the Tang Dynasty spirit and were seriously implementing it.

At the same time, we should also criticize Wei Zheng for his lack of ideological awareness and failure to understand the spirit of the Tang Dynasty.

You have succeeded in getting the name this time, so you should quit while you are ahead. I have made everything clear to you and given you a way out, so don't keep on being unreasonable.

Wei Zheng's old face turned slightly red.

The prince indirectly accused him of not keeping up with the pace of the main force.

This time it was an act of experimentation.

If successful, it will lay a political foundation for future generations.

This will be followed in the future.

When the prince brought up the idea of ​​"ritual", Wei Zheng could not accept it.

"The Tang Dynasty spirit is centered on your Majesty's leadership and is a comprehensive ideological guideline."

"We should unite closely under the banner of your Majesty's wise leadership and learn from your Majesty's thoughts and spirit."

Li Chengqian said in a resounding voice: "Under the guidance of your majesty's thoughts and spirit, we should work hard to govern the country and ensure the safety of the people, and at the same time, we should be brave enough to explore and try, and open up an unprecedented path and direction that suits the national conditions of the Tang Dynasty."

"In this way, our Tang Dynasty can be different from all previous dynasties. We can create a new chapter on the path opened up by our predecessors."

Li Shimin no longer held his forehead and was no longer angry.

He straightened his back, sat upright, and glanced at his ministers with a dignified manner.

I feel very happy.

Listen!

The prince's words.

My mind, my spirit.

It is the Tang Dynasty thought and the Tang Dynasty spirit.

It is the policy that guides you in doing things and governing the country.

You all need to understand and learn.

Don't go against me like Wei Zheng did.

I am receptive to good advice and suggestions, and I will say things in a nice way. No one will be too aggressive or embarrass me.

Doing your job well is more effective than anything else.

Li Chengqian's words undoubtedly brought him to another level.

At the same time, it also allowed the ministers to stand on a new level.

The Tang Dynasty achieved achievements that were different from those of all previous dynasties, so every one of those present here will be able to leave their names in history and be praised by future generations.

There were so many wise men before the Tang Dynasty. Why can't we, who are in the period of change in the Tang Dynasty, become wise men in the eyes of future generations?
Wei Zheng lowered his head and said nothing, feeling extremely ashamed.

The prince wants us all to become wise men for future generations.

But I didn't understand the deep meaning of it.

The prince has to speak like this.

Li Ke's expression did not change, but his heart was in turmoil.

They knew in advance that their fiefdoms would be revoked.

But they didn't know that they would be banned outside the Tang Dynasty.

Do we really want to follow the story of the Zhou Dynasty?
What shocked him even more was the prince's words.

It was really refreshing and eye-opening for him.

I’m afraid he will never be able to reach his brother’s level of thinking in his entire life.

The ministers were also ready to make a move, and both Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian wanted to stand up and make a joint speech.

Fang Xuanling's beard was dancing in the wind, which shows how excited he was.

Li Chengqian did not have time to see the reactions of his ministers, but he could probably guess what was going on.

He continued, "It's not easy to be crowned a king outside the country."

“We still have to take the actual situation into consideration.”

"First of all, the princes must have sufficient personal abilities."

"Whether it is civil administration or martial arts, one should possess one of these abilities."

Li Chengqian paused, his eyes turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "But my brothers are very unfortunate."

“They can’t be too capable, nor can they be too outstanding.”

"If you are too capable, there will be rumors."

“Those who are incompetent are subject to impeachment.”

"No matter what they do, they have to be extremely cautious, fearing that they will be impeached for no reason if they are not careful."

He patted his chest and said, "I see it with my own eyes and it hurts my heart."

"Why are you, the prince, suspected to this extent?"

in fact.

He was also speaking for his former self.

The situations my previous life had been in were all so difficult.

It is conceivable how difficult it was for the princes to survive.

It can be said that from him, the crown prince, to the princes and uncles.

Everything you say or do is being observed under a magnifying glass.

If something doesn't go their way, they'll either teach you a lesson or impeach you.

Li Shimin subconsciously looked at his sons, only to see that they all lowered their heads and did not speak.

Emotionally, he didn't want to see such suspicion.

But his reason and experience told him that it was impossible not to be suspicious.

"Now they are asked to be crowned kings outside. If they don't have the corresponding ability, I, as their elder brother, am very worried."

Li Chengqian said: "So, I allowed them to learn both civil and military skills so that they could learn the ability to govern their fiefdoms."

"I also want the princesses of the Tang Dynasty to contribute to the prosperity of the world."

“Isn’t this behavior inappropriate?”

The ministers were silent.

I couldn't speak in the first place, and now I can't speak anymore.

Just listen to the prince singing.

"Saburo!"

Li Chengqian called out.

Li Ke immediately said: "Your Highness!"

"You come and tell His Majesty, tell the gentlemen."

"What do you think?"

Li Ke was stunned, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind quickly. Then he said: "I am a prince, a prince, and a subject of your majesty."

"We should unite closely under the banner of your Majesty's wise leadership."

"No matter what the court's policy or decision is."

"I will uphold your Majesty's spirit and ideas with unwavering determination and will remain loyal to you until my death!"

Li Chengqian secretly praised him, saying that he was indeed Li Ke.

The brain works quickly.

It is very practical.

This attitude is beautifully expressed.

"Shiro!"

Li Chengqian shouted again.

Li Pangpang didn't expect that he would also be involved. He didn't think much about it and continued to speak along with what Li Ke said.

Then the other princes stood up one by one and spoke loudly.

The more Li Shimin listened, the more he smiled.

He was really happy.

After the prince expressed his opinion, it was the turn of the princesses in the corner.

They were not called here to watch the show, but to perform and express their opinions.

It is also meant to be a display of strength.

Li Shimin saw these princesses, especially the younger sisters.

The smile on his lips couldn't be suppressed at all.

The support from his sisters made the unforgettable scar in his heart feel much better.

The ministers looked at the prince who stood up, the daughter of the previous emperor and the daughter of the current emperor.

For the first time, I felt the pressure from the Li clan.

These princesses, through marriage, tied together countless ministers in the court.

Maybe no one has tried to understand it deliberately.

Even Li Shimin didn't consider this.

But when Li Chengqian pulled them all out to the platform, he suddenly realized.

This force is terrifyingly strong.

"Prince of Hejian."

"King Jiangxia!"

"King of Han..."

Li Chengqian hadn't finished showing off yet, he also pointed out all the other members of the Li clan.

Li Xiaogong and others spoke out without any hesitation to express their support.

This court, at a glance.

Either he is a prince or a princess, either he is a duke or a prince.
