Li Tai was thinking about it in his heart. He wanted to cut off this target, but he couldn't tell the civil and military officials.
It was too unbelievable to tell all the officials in the court that I wanted to kidnap a person. All the officials were puzzled. How did they know about such a person? And what reason did they use to ask her to enter the palace?
Selection was a very good excuse!
However, there was one bad thing. Li Tai looked at the civil and military officials who were looking at him with disappointment. He felt a little regretful. These people didn't agree.
Wasn't it just expanding the Three Palaces and Six Courts?
Can't she be young?
After I bring them into my harem, wouldn't it be nice to have them eat melon seeds for me every day?
"I've made up my mind. You're not allowed to say anything.”
Li Tai looked at the civil and military officials with a serious expression and said in a tender voice,
"Don't say that I didn't give you a chance to stop me from expanding the Three Palaces and Six Halls. Do you see these tens of thousands of wooden boxes? Before sunset today, move all of them into the palace, and I won't mention the expansion of the Three Palaces and Six Halls!”
Li Jiancheng was speechless.
Li Er was speechless.
Li Yuanji was speechless.
Pei Ji was speechless.
The officials were speechless.
Looking at the wooden boxes that couldn't even fit in the courtyard, everyone looked at Li Tai speechlessly. You actually don't want to expand at all, but want to kill us, right?
"How many women does Your Majesty plan to recruit to expand the Three Palaces and Six Courts?" Li Jiancheng suddenly asked.”
"I want to pick it myself!" Li Tai said solemnly. If you can't pick any of them, it's fine. If you like them, then all of them will be brought into the harem. The venue will be tomorrow morning. Now, all of you move and help me find good girls in Chang 'an. I will choose them myself tomorrow morning!”
This was simply nonsense!
The officials couldn't help but curse.
The morning court was a place for discussion, how could it be used for selection? Isn't this going to leave us with a bad name in the annals of history!
Immediately, a middle-aged censor wearing a censor's robe strode out. His tone was sonorous and forceful.
"Your Majesty, the daily court meeting is a place for discussion. How can it be used as a place for selection? I object!"
"I agree!"
"I also agree!"
Li Tai glanced at the three officials who had stepped forward and blinked."If I don't listen to your objections, what will you do?”
Hearing this, the three censors held their breaths.
What else can we do if you don't listen?
He could only continue to oppose!
The middle-aged imperial censor took a deep breath and said with a serious expression,"
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Censorate is your eyes and ears. It monitors the news of the officials and must be careful not to let your Majesty be looked down upon by the people.”
"I'm willing to die to remonstrate!"
The other two middle-aged imperial censors shouted.
The loud sound was like a bell striking, deafening the deaf.
The civil and military officials were filled with veneration. Those who dared to remonstrate were all tough bones. Moreover, these three were all from the Imperial Censorate, so they were even more stubborn. Most importantly, they really did not care about the expansion of the three palaces and six courtyards. They were willing to remonstrate!
If His Majesty still did not agree.
The three of them would probably be splattered with blood on the spot!
Li Tai was stunned for a moment. He looked at Xu Xiaode playfully. Wasn't this a coincidence?
Xu Xiaode.
I was looking for you!
At this moment, seeing that Li Tai was staring at him without saying a word, Xu Xiaode frowned slightly and felt a little uncomfortable. He bowed and said in a deep voice,
"Your Majesty, please reconsider the expansion of the three palaces and six courtyards!”
Li Tai raised his chubby little hand and waved it, saying in a tender voice,"
"I don't want to, and I don't want to listen. Don't give me this death remonstrance. If you dare to die remonstrance today, I'll exile your entire family three thousand miles. Let me say this. Tomorrow morning, one of the daughters of all the civil and military officials must appear at the morning court. If anyone doesn't come, don't blame me for being rude!”
Hearing this, all the officials 'expressions changed.
His Majesty has started to make decisions alone again!
He didn't listen to anyone!
Xu Xiaode became even more anxious. What was the point of remonstrating? If he died here today, his entire family would suffer together with him. He could not help but look at Li Er helplessly, wanting to ask him for help.
Li Er was speechless.
Why are you looking at me?
Li Er cursed in his heart.'If my words were effective, the throne that green sparrow was sitting on would have been mine yesterday!'
At this moment, Pei Ji suddenly said,"Your Majesty, I will obey your orders."”
With a swoosh, all the officials turned to look at Pei Ji. They were both angry and furious. You are a prime minister with real power. How can you let His Majesty do whatever he wants? Isn't this helping a tyrant?
Li Tai also blinked and looked at him. What did this old fellow mean? Changing his attitude at this time didn't seem like Pei Ji's character. Logically speaking, Pei Ji should be the one to oppose him the most.
Pei Ji's expression was indifferent, not showing any emotions.
Li Tai looked at him meaningfully and said with an innocent smile,""Prime Minister Pei is still the best. Then we'll do it this way. We'll talk about it tomorrow morning. All of you can go back.”
"We will take our leave."
The civil and military officials bowed helplessly. As for moving the money back, it was no joke. With all the money on the ground, which box wasn't a hundred or so pounds? They would die of exhaustion on the way back!
Moreover, how much could this box be worth?
Li Tai munched on melon seeds as he watched them leave, but he was thinking about Pei Ji's attitude just now. There was no reason for the old boy to be so obedient!
……
Outside King Qin's Mansion.
"Prime Minister Pei, what happened to you just now?”
"That's right. His Majesty is clearly messing around. How can you let him do as he pleases?”
"His Majesty is only eight years old, and he wants to expand the Three Palaces and Six Courts. Moreover, he is using the life-saving money of our Imperial Court. If this money is spent on His Majesty, what will happen to the various departments of the Imperial Court?”
As soon as he came out of the mansion, the civil and military officials could not help but surround Pei Ji and grit their teeth as they angrily shouted.
"Calm down and listen to this old man!”
Pei Ji looked at them and gave a low shout. After the officials were silent, he swept his gaze over them and said solemnly,
"The little Emperor is messing around. Is there nothing we can do? Didn't His Majesty say that he wanted the daughters of our families to enter the court tomorrow and be picked by him personally? Then let him pick them. Moreover, His Majesty didn't say how old they were.”
Hearing this, the officials were stunned.
He didn't say how old she was…
This sentence made many people wake up. That's right, His Majesty did not say how old she was. He only said that there must be daughters from the families of all officials present. There were many tricks involved.
Pei Ji stroked his beard and said indifferently,
"Didn't His Majesty also say that if he doesn't like any of them, he won't choose this time? Therefore, our goal is to make His Majesty unable to be chosen. Isn't this simple? Such a method could not only make His Majesty lose face, but also let this mess end here. It was not the best of both worlds?”
The officials 'eyes lit up.
"That makes sense!"
"Prime Minister Pei has a way!"
"Hahahahaha, I'm afraid that His Majesty will be greatly surprised at the morning court session tomorrow!”
The civil and military officials couldn't help but laugh as they thought of the scene in the morning court tomorrow.
Pei Ji smiled and said," Since that's the case, everyone should go back and prepare. There's not much time left before tomorrow's morning court session!"”
"Here!"
All the officials said in unison.
Meanwhile, in King Qin's Mansion.
Li Jiancheng stroked his beard and sighed.”
Li Er's expression was even uglier as he glared at Li Tai. He no longer addressed him as 'Your Majesty' and directly called him by his nickname. He said in a deep voice,
"Green Sparrow, now that you're on the throne, you're no longer an ordinary person. The children of ordinary people can cause trouble, but you can't. You're the emperor!”
"That's right." Li Yuanji snorted.”
Li Tai was munching on melon seeds. He blinked at them and said,""Are you saying that I didn't do a good job as an emperor?”
Li Jiancheng, Li Er, and Li Yuanji all fell silent.
However, Li Tai could tell from their expressions that they were clearly thinking this. He laughed and said,"How about this, depose the Crown Prince. King Qin, I'll give you a chance. If you can do it, I'll abdicate and let the wise one do it!”
