Patriotic Is a Sin?! (, tickets.)
As the name implied, the teacher of an emperor.
This was the greatest achievement of the ancient Confucians!
Apart from a few lunatics who wanted to become sages, the emperor's teacher was the most accomplished scholar.
Even Confucius, the sage teacher, was the teacher of the emperors.
It could be seen how much the Confucians valued the identity of the emperor's teacher.
Kong Yingda, Yan Shigu, and Yu Shining, the three great Confucians, heard Li Shiming's words and their eyes almost bled.
This was the achievement they dreamed of. How did it fall on Li Xian?.
Absolutely not!
"Your Majesty, you must not!"
"That's right! How could Li Xian be the Crown Prince's teacher and teach the Crown Prince? He definitely could not.”
"Li Xian has formed a clique for personal gain, blinded by greed, and has evil intentions. He absolutely cannot become the Crown Prince's teacher and corrupt the Crown Prince!”
Kong Yingda and the other two immediately objected vehemently. The civil officials also jumped out to express their opposition.
No matter who became the emperor's teacher, this was acceptable. But Li Xian was a merchant, what right did he have?
To choose an emperor teacher, one must choose from among the civil officials and Confucians!
"Zhen is not asking for your opinion, but informing you!”
Li Shi Min sneered.
"Don't tell me you still want to force the abdication!”
Kong Yingda and the other civil officials were shocked and hurriedly knelt down.
"We dare not!"
It was now the sixth year of Zhenguan, and he was no longer the Li Shimin who had just managed the Xuanwu Gate rebellion.
All the power of the imperial court was in his hands, and he had absolute authority.
A true emperor who could decide the world with a single word.
"Zhen will now confer Li Xian the title of Crown Prince's Junior Guardian and instruct the Crown Prince in his studies.”
Li Shi Min said with a smile.
"The King of Wu and the King of Wei also learned from him.”
"Li Xian, hurry up and thank me."
Li Shi Min looked at Li Xian with a smile, waiting for Li Xian to shed tears of gratitude.
However, he was surprised to find that Li Xian was looking at him in a daze, and even had some blame in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, I said that I don't want to be an official.”
Li Xian said.
"Li Xian only wants to do some business, earn some money, and be a rich man in peace.”
"You should leave the matter of teaching the Crown Prince to these old fellows.”
"They are professionals."
F * ck!
The Crown Prince's Junior Guardian was an official title, not an official position.
It was a symbol of honor.
Many people had worked their entire lives for this official title.
Li Xian actually despised it like this!
It was really infuriating to compare people. It was too heart-wrenching!
"This isn't an official position, it's just a title. You don't need to be on duty, you just need to let the Crown Prince and the others continue to learn from you!”
Li Shi Min said unhappily.
He was the Emperor of the Great Tang, yet he was being despised by someone with a title.
In the entire Great Tang, perhaps only Li Xian was capable of such a thing.
"Is there a salary?"
Li Xian asked seriously.
"Yes!"
Li Shi Min gritted his teeth in anger, but he still had to maintain his dignity. He replied Li Xian with a single word through his gritted teeth.
"Well, that's not too bad."
Li Xian smiled in satisfaction and crossed his hands in a bow.
"I, Li Xian, thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Shi Min didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This kid was afraid that he wouldn't pay him, so he didn't want to accept it.
It was really enough.
"Wait a minute!"
Yu Shining suddenly shouted and knelt on the ground, crying.
"Your Majesty, you must not!"
"Even if Li Xian has some talent, his heart is not right. He absolutely cannot teach the Crown Prince!”
"Putting everything else aside, using the disaster relief, threatening the road construction inside the pass, and colluding with Duke Lu, Duke E, and the other dukes to trade food are absolutely heinous crimes.”
"If Your Majesty doesn't punish him, he'll definitely cause chaos in the Great Tang. I…"
"I'm willing to die to remonstrate!"
"Bang!"
Yu Shining knelt on the ground and cried. His forehead was bleeding from the violent impact just now.
The entire Taiji Palace was silent. No one had expected Yu Shining to be so ruthless and directly remonstrate.
"Lord Yu, you misunderstood."
Li Shi Min's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"The matter of repairing the road was only a deal between Zhen and Li Xian. That was because he repaired it better than the Ministry of Works, so it was considered a repayment to the Imperial Court.”
"As for the matter of colluding with the dukes, Zhen believes that there must be another story behind it.”
"Li Xian, explain to Lord Yu.”
Li Shi Min tried his best to speak in a good tone. If Yu Shi Ning really died here today, his face as the emperor would not look good.
Moreover, Li Xian would definitely be tainted in the court in the future. This was something that Li Shiming did not want to see.
"Hehe, explain what?"
Li Xian sneered.
"Ignorance is one thing, but you still think that you're the only one who's right in this world.”
"Do you want me, Li Xian, to give up on hundreds of thousands of disaster victims just because you threatened me with death? Do you want me to give up on stabilizing the emotions of the disaster victims with great difficulty and give up on the road construction project that is about to be completed?”
"You're not that valuable!"
"Hurry up if you want to die!"
"I don't feel sorry for a person like you even if you die. I can only be glad that there's one less old melon skin who can bring disaster to the country and the people!”
Li Shi Min was shocked.
I don't want you to reconcile. Li Xian, what the hell are you doing!
He was going to make enemies.
As expected…
The civil officials all glared at Li Xian with righteous indignation and were furious.
"This is too much!"
"How dare you humiliate my lord like this!”
"Nonsense. He clearly has bad conduct and even slandered Lord Yu.”
Li Xian coldly laughed as he swept his gaze over them.
"His Majesty has already explained the matter of repairing the road, so I won't say much. I'll just talk about the matter of me colluding with the few dukes.”
"We only contacted each other to exchange for food to facilitate disaster relief.”
"The corn is indeed enough for disaster relief, but what about the follow-up?”
" We'll use the corn to attract investment, and the rich merchants and even ordinary people in Chang 'an to exchange for food and buy corn. We'll establish a long-term cooperative relationship and open up business activities in Taiping Village to prepare for the lives of hundreds of thousands of disaster victims in the future.”
"Duke, you have volunteered to donate food and support my actions. This is a display of your love for the country.”
"How…"
"Since when has being patriotic become a crime in the Great Tang?”
