Chapter 29:
"Guanyin maid, just say what you want to say. There's no need to beat around the bush!" Li Shi Min also realized that there was something wrong with his wife. After being married for so many years, he was still aware of this!
"What thoughts can this concubine have? I see that second brother seems to value this Tang Shanshi very much. Why don't you let this prince train him?”Empress Zhangsun's words sounded nice, but those who understood knew that it would not be like this. Why did the Empress have to bring up an abandoned child? Why didn't she say it before? If she said that there was no conspiracy here, no one would believe it!
"Goddess of Mercy, you and I have been husband and wife for so many years. If you have something to say, just say it. Don't bring out these little schemes!”
"What are you saying, Second Brother? I just heard that Tang Shanshi is unwilling to work for Second Brother. Isn't he trying to share Second Brother's worries? Moreover, the successor of the Phantom Valley had publicly accepted a disciple. This Tang Shanshi was just an abandoned son of the family. If he really went, where would Tang Jian put his face?”
Li Shiming's face turned ugly. He already knew what the Guanyin maid was planning, but he didn't interrupt her and continued to listen.
"Furthermore, we can't inherit the title of nobility in the past, so I'm afraid that the misunderstanding will be broken and that we'll look down on Phantom Valley. This concubine is thinking of having Chong-er and the others go over to take him as a master. This way, the successor of Phantom Valley won't think that we're looking down on him! Isn't this the best of both worlds?"
"And then? Let me break their hearts again? Wanting to become his disciple? Tell them that if anyone dares to stir up this matter, I will not show mercy! Chong-er is the same!" Li Shiming flung his sleeves and left. He realized that it was really difficult for talented people to display their talents. Not only did he pretend to be a public figure before, but he was now trying to snatch away his own good fortune!
Seeing Li Shiming leave, Empress Zhangsun was dumbfounded. What was going on? Why couldn't she figure out what the Emperor was thinking today? Moreover, there seemed to be something wrong with His Majesty today!
The morning court session on the second day!
The younger generation was very happy because today was the day to reward people according to their achievements. In other words, they were going to be promoted again. Some people even began to congratulate each other. Moreover, they felt that today's reward was definitely the greatest!
The morning court session was finally about to begin, but Fang Xuanling and the others could see that the Emperor's expression today was not very good. They knew that it would not be so easy to get the reward today. Zhangsun Wuji had even lowered his head! His little thoughts were not intact. He had completely lost his mind. Moreover, it seemed that he had even blown up the people around him. It would probably be very difficult for him to leave after the court session!
Li Shiming sat high up and looked at the people below. He also saw Fang Xuanling and the others. You can't see me, you act like I don't exist. Li Shimin sneered in his heart and thought," Laugh! Laugh. Yesterday, I almost cried. Today, I will make you cry and vent my anger. Damn, my face was almost swollen yesterday. Today, I will tear your faces off!
"The locust plague has passed. Now, there are only some follow-up problems. I believe all the beloved ministers know that today is the day to reward people according to their achievements!”As soon as Li Shiming spoke, the people below were all excited! Only Fang Xuanling and the others lowered their heads!
"However, before we reward them according to their merits, we must punish them!”Li Shiming smiled, revealing his pearly white teeth. Zhangsun Wuji was trembling. He could already see the scene of Fang Xuanling and the others putting a gunnysack on him after the court session!
"Liu Bing! Read it!"
"Yes!" Liu Bing stood out and everyone found that the chamberlain behind the Emperor was holding two imperial edicts!
"Today, a plague of locusts has descended from the heavens, and the people have been displaced. The civil and military officials of the court have no good plan. However, the heavens have pitied them. Tang Shanshi has offered three disaster relief plans to save the people of the world. It is indeed a great fortune for the world. However, in this disaster relief, there are people who do not want to share your worries. Not punishing them is not enough to appease the people's anger!"
Fang Xuanling and the rest's premonition had come true. The group stared at the ceiling. No, it should be the ceiling beam that was silent. From time to time, it would turn its head to look at Zhangsun Wuji!
This damned fatty was too arrogant. Everything was going well because he wanted to keep it all for himself. Now, he must teach him a lesson when he gets back later. Find a place to put a gunnysack on him. Damn it! Now, not only did they not have any credit, but they also made a f * cking mistake. Didn't they play for so long for nothing? Even if he's His Majesty's relative, we have to teach him a lesson this time. You can't drag us into your death!
"Zhangsun Chong! Fang Yizhi, Gao Xing…" Liu Bing started to read out these names one by one. Zhangsun Wuji felt goosebumps all over his body. It was over, he was dead this time. He had offended so many people in one go, how could he continue playing?
"Everyone will be demoted by three ranks, grounded for three months, and fined a year's salary. If there is a next time, we will not tolerate it!”After Liu Bing finished reading the name list, a large number of people knelt down below. The scene was tragic! Everyone was a little embarrassed to watch!
How could people be so shameless? What were you guys doing when they were busy with disaster relief? They ate all day long. When the credit list was added, all of them were actually on it. Was eating, drinking, and gambling considered disaster relief? Is it okay now? Were they all finished? Why aren't you showing off anymore?
"Alright! He had already been punished. Now, it was time to reward him according to his merits!”Li Shi Min tilted his head. Liu Bing had started to read the imperial edict, but he didn't need to say the details!
All in all, His Majesty's reward this time was very large. Tang Shanshi directly became a founding county! Moreover, many of them were on the list!
"Oh right, Yuchi Baoqi, Cheng Chuliang, Cheng Chubi originally had an official position, but he came over yesterday to resign. He passed on Zhen's decree that they are allowed to return to the fields and be idle, but they are not allowed to resign. Retreat!"
What did Li Shimin say to Su Dingfang yesterday? Actually, that's what I'm talking about. You can go out and learn, but I'll keep the official position for you. When you come out, don't run away. As for the salary you took for nothing, I can afford it. If you're not convinced, come and beat me up? Moreover, if word got out, would I still have a good reputation? Are you convinced? Little bastard wants to play with me? You guys are too young!
Li Shiming was in a good mood and skipped off the court session. As for the rest, it was not his business. Wuji, it was not that I did not want to help you, but you have angered the public. I will go back and light the candle for you! Have a good journey!
