Li Er couldn't sleep for the entire night. His mood of having sex with Empress Zhangsun was completely gone.
The night was already dark, and it wasn't suitable to gather all the officials, so they could only endure.
He sat in the study room and listened to the news of his return from the Jiang family village. It was said that the fireworks were made by Jiang Yi, which was also another way to use gunpowder.
Li Er had been taught a lesson. Black gunpowder could be used for both military and entertainment purposes.
Staring at the pile of ancient and modern books beside him, he remembered the Yellow Crane Tower cigarettes that Jiang Yi had given him. In the end, he fumbled for one and lit it up with an oil lamp.
A small smoke rose slowly. Li Er frowned and twitched in frustration.
In the past, when he smoked this thing, he only felt that it was extremely spicy. Now, it was actually so comfortable. It was just as Jiang Yi had said. It was indeed worthy of being a spiritual food for people.
Jiang Yi, it was Jiang Yi again…
This guy, who claimed to be unwilling to be an official, had subconsciously changed everyone in Chang 'an in just one or two months.
Chang 'an's Erguotou was currently selling like hotcakes, and every household could afford to eat green salt. According to the report of the soldiers stationed at the salt mine in Longyou Pass, there were many green salt warehouses, and the salt-making method had begun to spread from Chang' an to all parts of the country.
Now, the counties near Chang 'an City could eat green salt.
In the end, he had underestimated Jiang Yi.
Li Er slowly put out the cigarette butt and sat down. The old eunuch came in with a thick cotton coat and a brazier. He was afraid that Li Er would catch a cold, but Li Er rejected him.
At this moment, the fire in his heart was exuberant, and there was no coldness at all.
After reviewing the memorial and arranging the distribution of the Eastern Turkic army, he wrote down the name of one person: Jiang Yi!
"Such a man actually wants to live a leisurely life. I almost fell for your trick. Since you have a talent made by heaven, then raise your whip and swing your saber to help me pacify the war at the border first.”
After he finished talking to himself, Li Er's small mouth curled into a smirk.
The night passed, and the morning star rose in the pitch-black night sky. The bell tower at the main gate of Taiji Palace had not sounded the morning drum, but it was already time for morning court.
In ancient times, officials would go to work at eight or nine o'clock in the morning.
Instead, it was early in the morning. Before dawn, they had to wait under the bell and drum tower of Taiji Palace at four or five o'clock. When the morning drum sounded, the palace gates opened wide. The officials called for them to start the court session.
The drumming began to spread, like a beacon fire. After all, Chang 'an City was not a bell and drum tower. The Taiji Sect looked up first, and then the other bell and drum towers followed.
Wulala's group entered the Hanyuan Hall of the Great Ming Palace. Everyone was present. Li Er changed into his dragon robe and sat down on the dragon chair under the sun and moon fan held by a group of palace maids.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
The old eunuch raised his little voice, and all the officials fell to their knees.""Long live our emperor!"
"Everyone, please rise."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The young ones got up quickly, while the old ones stood up unsteadily.
"Everyone, have you heard about what happened last night?”
Li Er started the conversation first. This time, it was very lively. The group of people in the hall, who were originally silent like cicadas in winter, were in a mess and discussed endlessly.
In the end, Zhangsun Wuji was the first to step forward with his hands raised."Your Majesty, this subject dares to speak. Now that our Great Tang borders have been in constant chaos, the Turks have become abnormally savage. Since Jiang Yi was an extraordinary talent, he naturally had to devote himself to the battlefield and not stay in the countryside. "Therefore, I beg Your Majesty to order Jiang Yi to join the army. We believe that Jiang Yi will definitely make an outstanding contribution to Your Majesty.”
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
This was bad. For the first time, hundreds of officials in the court stood up in unison, all shouting for Jiang Yi to lead troops to war. It was too wasteful to keep such a person in a comfortable living environment.
There were two types of people.
One was that they sincerely wanted to see how powerful Jiang Yi was.
The other was that they were too annoyed with Jiang Yi. This kid kept causing trouble in Chang 'an. They might as well go to war and let the heavens decide whether they lived or died.
Li Er smiled in his heart, but as an emperor, he was good at pretending. His face was still calm."Have you ever thought that Jiang Yi was originally a scholar dressed in cloth clothes? Although he has some wonderful plans, he can't just use small tricks to march and fight. If Jiang Yi went into the battlefield and met with an accident, what would happen? Although Jiang Yi is unwilling to serve in the army, he has done many good deeds for the country and the people. Don't you know?”
"Your Majesty."
Cheng Yaojin stood up and swayed his broad body to the center of Hanyuan Palace.""This old subject believes that it is precisely because Jiang Yi is a genius that he should devote himself to the battlefield. His Majesty is worried about Jiang Yi's safety, and I'm willing to guarantee it. As long as I'm alive, I won't let Jiang Yi lose a single hair.”
"Your Majesty, accept your advice."
"Your Majesty…"
A large group of officials knelt on the ground again. A few older and weaker officials began to curse in their hearts, but they had no choice and slowly knelt down.
However, just as he knelt on the ground, Li Er shouted,""Correct!"
Fuck you!
The officials stood up one by one, and the old men stood up while trembling. Even if they wanted to cheat someone, they wouldn't f * cking cheat someone like this. They were furious.
But he couldn't get angry yet. He had to show that he was loyal.
"To be honest, I didn't sleep last night and have the same thoughts as you. Jiang Yi must serve on the battlefield. This matter has been decided."
Li Er revealed a smile. This was how an emperor was. He had to show his cards first before he could reveal his trump card. As a minister, he could not sit still more than the emperor. That would make the emperor look unstable.
