Chapter 297 Officialdom Appearance

Li Shimin said, "Didn't he just leave? Why are he back? Xuan is coming in!"

Shi Zhongchen hurriedly agreed, took a small step and ran out of the hall to Xuan Changsun Wuji and Li Zhi.

Li Shimin only thought about it for a moment and understood that Ke'er stole Zhi'er's limelight, and his uncle naturally helped his nephew. He couldn't wait any longer and dragged Zhi'er to argue! Alas, what good theory is there? Who should love and who should not love? Will I have no sense in my heart!

Changsun Wuji dragged Li Zhi into the hall and saluted Li Shimin. He said, "Emperor, the old minister went to the East Palace just now. When the prince was sighing, the old minister asked him why he sighed. He actually said that he wanted to participate in the dialectical diagnosis of Shikeng Village, wanted to serve the court, share the emperor's worries, and diagnose smallpox matters. What a dangerous thing it is. The old minister naturally would not agree, but no matter how he persuaded him, he refused to listen, so he had to bring him to see the emperor. Emperor, please advise the prince, don't let him take risks!"

Li Shimin was shocked, sat upright from the bed, and asked, "Zhier, how could you have such an idea?"

Li Zhi had a bitter face and thought to himself: "I have no idea, it's all my uncle's idea, it has nothing to do with me!" He said: "Son minister, I want to share my father's worries, and I want to get rid of the suffering of smallpox as soon as possible, so I want to participate in the dialectics!"

Li Shimin's face was gloomy and he didn't say anything. In a hurry, he didn't expect anything to say!

Changsun Wuji said heartbrokenly: "Crown Prince, the good prince of the old minister. You are filial to the emperor and want to share the national affairs for the emperor. This is good. You are also caring for the people and caring for the people, which is also good... But, you cannot take risks in person. How dangerous is it to diagnose smallpox matters? How can you let you go? If you have a few shortcomings, how sad the emperor will be. Who will take care of the people in the world in the future?"

He was so anxious that he stomped his feet, and he looked like a prince, you love the Tang Dynasty too much, your father too much, but you don’t love yourself too much, as if Li Zhi was a good prince who sacrificed himself for others!

Li Shimin understood as soon as he heard this. In order to overshadow Li Ke, he was here to rob me of me, so as not to gossip about others. The prince’s gossip must not be said, that is really unpleasant!

After looking at Changsun Wuji, Li Shimin thought to himself: "Wuji, Wuji, this child has troubled you. I'm afraid he will never be able to do without your support in his life!"

The matter has ended with how to prevent smallpox by diagnosis, but the news has not spread. Unlike usual, in order to keep the "exclusive news", Li Ke did not let the person who reported the news shout along the street, saying that he did this to please the emperor alone.

But he forgot the important point. If you don’t give the credit to others, then no matter how great the credit you make, you won’t expect to get a reward!

Didn’t Li Ke play exclusive news? It would be fine if he was not exclusive. Not only did he do anything to him, he did not let the people know that the news was spread by him, but instead gave others the opportunity to play tricks! He could not even get a scoundrel of his father’s favor!

Li Shimin nodded, talking lies with his longan open, and he actually followed Changsun Wuji's words and said: "Yes, how dangerous it is to diagnose smallpox matters. And now it is at the most critical moment. Li Ji and Wang Ping'an have encountered unprecedented difficulties and cannot be solved. Now is the most critical moment and the most dangerous moment! Zhier, do you really want to go?"

Li Zhi thought to himself: "Can I not go? I really don't want to go!" He nodded solemnly, clenched his hands tightly into fists, and shouted: "Father, I have made up my mind to go. The matter of dialectical smallpox has reached the most critical moment. Without the help of my son, Li Ji and Wang Ping'an would not be able to complete the dialectical diagnosis in any case. Therefore, my son must go and do the dialectical diagnosis well in person to solve the suffering of smallpox for the people of the world forever!"

Changsun Wuji was overjoyed and thought to himself: "Good boy, that's right. You should say that. You finally know how to be a good prince! Whether it's a prince or an emperor in the future, you must remember one thing, that is, all the credit is yours. You must clarify this so that the people can love you and your throne can sit firmly!"

From afar, Shi Zhongchen, who was standing under the pillar, thought to himself: "The thicker the face, the bigger the official position. The old man Changsun has a thicker face than me, so his official position is bigger than me. In fact, my face is not too thin, but I can't teach me what the prince said!"

The diagnosis has ended. Everyone in the palace knows that there is no danger, but no one pretends not to know and has to say that it is not over. If you want others to believe it, you must first believe it!

Li Shimin sighed and said for a long time: "Loyal ministers, pass on the orders and summon all civil and military officials to discuss matters in Taiji Palace!"

Shi Zhongchen said with a rant and said, "Your Majesty, is it going to hold a grand tribute?"

"That's right, go and pass the order quickly, and don't delay it!" Li Shimin said.

Shi Zhongchen hurriedly said, "Yes, I'll go and pass the order now!" He looked at Li Zhi with a "resolute" face, and then looked at Changsun Wuji who was moved to tears and was about to cry. He thought to himself, "Be good prince who knows what shame is, you have been taught to ruin!"

After trotting out of the Ganlu Hall, Shi Zhongchen ordered the young eunuchs to go out immediately, summon ministers, go to Taiji Hall, and hold a grand court meeting!

The ministers in various yamen were surprised to learn that the emperor was going to hold a grand dynasty meeting. Li Shimin had long stopped handling government affairs in Taiji Hall. Taiji Hall was only used during festivals and festivals. Normal court meetings were held in Ganlu Hall. Today, a grand dynasty meeting was suddenly held. Could something big happened?

Could it be that you want to conquer Goguryeo again, or you want to go to war with the Turks?

The ministers were anxious. If it weren't for such a major matter, why should I go to Tai Chi Hall? After receiving the news, the ministers immediately ran out of their yamen and rushed to the palace. The ministers who were not qualified to participate in the dynasty meeting were also shocked. What's wrong? Is there a big problem in the country? I no longer have the heart to work and make random guesses. If the relationship is good, they gather together and discuss it!

Who dares to neglect such a major event? Although there are many ministers, they all entered the palace and arrived at the Taiji Hall. They saw that Li Shimin was already waiting in the hall, and the prince Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji were also here, and everyone had serious expressions.

The ministers were even more shocked. What happened? It seems that it was definitely not a good thing! They didn't know the dialectical smallpox, and the final result had been achieved. Thanks to Li Ke. If it weren't for him, I'd probably have spread all over Chang'an at this time, and everyone knows it!

After the ministers entered the hall, they had greeted the emperor and divided the trains on both sides to speak quietly.

Seeing that the ministers were all here and silent for a long time, Li Shimin then said: "My dear friends, the latest news has been heard from Shikeng Village. How to prevent smallpox from being diagnosed? It can't be carried out!" After that, he sighed.

The emperor did not lie, and the dialectics could not continue because it had been completed!

All the ministers in the palace were surprised and could not continue to diagnose it. This was nothing. It was best to prevent it, but it could not be prevented. There was nothing to do, so I could only accept my fate!

But the key is that Shikeng Village is only a hundred miles away from Chang'an. If smallpox comes from there and spreads the nearby people, wouldn't it be a big mess? The plague runs faster than horses, and it is easy to harm Chang'an!

A minister stood up and shouted: "Your Majesty, you must not take this matter lightly. You should send someone here immediately. You should burn villages and burn forests. Even if the diagnosis fails, you must not let smallpox spread out!"

The ministers nodded one after another, and everyone thought so. I advised Li Shimin to make a decision, but such a thing could not be delayed!

Li Shimin sighed and said, "But the matter of dialectical smallpox is related to the people of the world. Although I have encountered difficulties, I still hope that this dialectical diagnosis can continue."

Changsun Wuji left the court and shouted: "Your Majesty, I think that although human resources can go against the will of heaven, I will eventually encounter God's criticism when I act. If I want to solve the difficulties in Shikeng Village, I should be the emperor in person to solve this problem!"

After hearing this, the ministers said together. No wonder they had to hold a grand court meeting in Tai Chi Hall. It turned out that it was because of this. Could it be that the emperor decided to go to Shikeng Village in person?

This is not possible!

The ministers knelt down to Li Shimin and shouted in a mess, saying everything, but the meaning was the same. The emperor was the king of a country, but he must not take this risk. The evil disease of smallpox is only one in his life, but what if there is an accident, the emperor is the emperor. Unlike the people, the people get it once, and the emperor gets it twice...

Amid the noise, Li Zhi strode to the center of the hall, lifted the corner of his robe, knelt down for Li Shimin, and said loudly: "Father, my son is willing to go to Shikeng Village on your behalf to meet Li Ji and Wang Ping'an, and continue the diagnosis, share the worries of the father, and benefit the people...!"

Although the scene was chaotic, his voice was very loud, and he even covered up the noise of the ministers. The ministers looked at Li Zhi together and thought to himself: "Why did the gentle prince suddenly become masculine and take the initiative to take the risk? I have known him for more than 20 years and have never seen him like this!"

Not all those who can participate in the grand dynasty meeting are from Lingyan Pavilion. Most of them are promoted by their ability. Being able to stand here means that their minds are good and they will definitely not be able to get a chance!

The ministers were stunned and instantly understood that the dialectics must have ended and the final result must be obtained. And the final result was successful, with tens of them not deviating!

After blinking his eyelids, the ministers understood that there was not a single person who was still "confused" and they all knew what to do next!

With a loud bang, the minister shouted together: "Your Highness, you must not. You are a body of golden branches and jade leaves. How can you take risks? How can you guide smallpox diagnosis? This is too dangerous!"

Some ministers simply knelt down for Li Zhi and shouted: "Crown Prince, you have paid too much for the sake of the emperor, the country, the court, and the people of the world! As a minister, we cannot share your worries for you, it is really a dereliction of duty!"

Some of them were even more exaggerated and shouted: "Your Highness, after listening to the advice of the old minister, you must not go! Let the old minister take risks for you! If you want to die, let the old minister die!"

Several ministers suddenly burst into tears and tried hard to persuade Li Zhi, as if Li Zhi didn't listen to their advice... Of course, Li Zhi would be fine, but they would soon cry and die of death!

Suddenly, a middle-aged minister shouted: "You can't share the worries between the emperor and the prince. It's all my fault and has nothing to do with others. I am willing to apologize for death!" As he said that, he rushed towards the pillar in the hall!

However, his run-up speed was slower, and before his head could hit the pillar, he was pulled by a group of ministers. The ministers shouted: "No, it's not your fault, it's mine, it's all my fault!"

"You are all wrong. The reason why you are wrong is that you are not wrong, but I am wrong!" Another minister shouted.

In the past, once they said they had to take responsibility, all the ministers retreated, but now they took them all to themselves, saying that others were not wrong, they were not responsible, they were all their own responsibilities!

On the main hall, crying, screaming, noise, pulling and tugging, and it was a mess, just like a vegetable market!

Li Shimin remained silent, Li Zhi was stunned, Changsun Wuji tilted his head and watched the performance of his ministers. A few old ministers who were old and no longer needed to flatter and get rich by making money looked up at the beam of the hall, saying nothing, and there was nothing to say!

Shi Zhongchen looked at the chaotic hall and sighed in his heart that the best singers and dancers in the world cannot perform this good show, and the best drama in the world is not in the dance floor, but in this court!

He thought to himself: "It is said that in the era of Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, the laws were not strict. Some ministers were drunk and went to the hall. When the king and his ministers were discussing affairs, they were happy and they would draw out their swords and cut the pillars, so that Liu Bang had to order the rectification of the court. I had never believed it before. What a solemn place in the court, how could the ministers be so arrogant? Now I believe it! Although the court hall is small, it can pretend to be the people in the world and act out all kinds of sentient beings in the world!"

Li Shimin watched the ministers express his loyalty desperately and thought to himself: "My ministers are no more ashamed than those of the former Sui Dynasty!" He waved his hand and said: "My intention has been decided, there is no need to discuss it anymore. Let the prince take me to Shikeng Village and carry out the dialectical smallpox matter to the end!"

The ministers were still waiting to "persuade", but when Li Shimin waved his hand, he quickly stopped crying and called out the emperor's wiseness!

Li Shimin ordered that Chengtian Gate be opened, and he personally took Li Zhi out of Chengtian Gate and asked Li Zhi to go to Shikeng Village through Zhuque Street!

The imperial guards were very busy, prepared their cars and protected Li Shimin and Li Zhi, and came out of Chengtian Gate, while civil and military officials followed behind. The flags were waving and embroidered belts were flying, making everyone outside know about it and ran out to watch the fun!
