His Majesty Is Hiding His Power
"Please enlighten me, Your Majesty!"
Li Shi Min sighed and said,"Do you know that the reason why you pull back your clenched fist is so that you can punch with more strength?”
Du Ruhui's body trembled as he looked at Tian Zi in disbelief.
With his intelligence, he could instantly understand the meaning of this sentence.
He was just shocked by Li Shimin's thought-provoking words. It seemed simple, but it had a profound meaning.
Not even the ancient sages would be able to say such words.
As expected, the Emperor, who had always looked for them to discuss everything thoroughly, regardless of whether it was big or small, had always been a hidden existence.
Who knew how much more wisdom his beloved Emperor had hidden.
He looked at Du Ruhui, who was known for his decisiveness and wisdom, and his right-hand man, who was looking at him in shock.
Li Er instantly swelled up with pride.
This Shopkeeper Wang was indeed extraordinary. After he used his words, he immediately suppressed the important officials in the court.
It seemed that he would have to walk around more in the future. Learning a few more sentences was quite useful.
Li Shi Min walked around the study room with his hands behind his back.
Then, he said in a sincere tone,"Ruhui, it's not that I don't want to destroy the Turks, but given the current situation, I can only endure.”
"You have to know that once the Turks start a war, it won't just affect the two countries, it will also affect the surrounding regions.”
"This isn't a matter for us to probe. Once we send out our troops, we must sweep the Eastern Turks to the ground.”
"Otherwise, if I were to test them out today, I would definitely arouse the vigilance of Xue Yantuo, Tuyuhun, and the other ambitious people.”
"When the time comes, you'll be constantly on guard against the Great Tang. If you want to do anything, you'll be hindered in every way.”
Li Shiming had completely forgotten what his original attitude was, and only used the words Wang Chen had given him to educate Du Ruhui.
Du Ruhui stood rooted to the ground, his expression changing several times.
With his intelligence, it was impossible for him to not understand these questions. It was just that he was unwilling.
Now that Li Shimin had pointed it out, Du Ruhui's heart was naturally in turmoil.
"Your Majesty is right. I was thoughtless and too rash. I hope Your Majesty can forgive me.”
Li Shi Min waved his hand and said,"You're also sharing the country's worries and working hard on political affairs. What's wrong with that?”
"You only need to remember that a little impatience can ruin a great plan. Our Great Tang is destined to sweep the world clean, and there's no need to rush for a few years.”
"In the next few days, we will focus on curing the drought in the east of the river and continue to accumulate strength.”
"As for Tuli Khagan, you can also send people to pacify him, to show that our Great Tang has not given up on him. We just need to wait for an opportunity.”
Du Ruhui was completely convinced by Li Er at this moment. He nodded repeatedly to show that he had remembered the emperor's instructions before bowing and leaving.
Li Shiming was left in the study, pondering what questions he should ask in the future.
……
After Du Ruhui left the Imperial Palace, he remembered Li Shimin's instructions and turned to the Ministry of War.
However, on the way, his carriage met Zhangsun Wuji.
They were both high-ranking officials of the six departments of the imperial court, and they were also Li Shimin's subordinates. Naturally, the two of them had a good personal relationship.
Therefore, when the carriages met, they stopped at the same time. Then, they all got down from the carriages and prepared to talk.
"Brother Du, looking in your direction, could it be that you just came out of the Imperial Palace?”
Hearing Zhangsun Wuji's question, Du Ruhui nodded and sighed.
"Brother Zhangsun, I'm not afraid that you'll laugh at me. In the past, I always thought that His Majesty was good at coordinating the overall situation, and that it was up to us to plan and formulate strategies.”
"Now I realize that this view is completely wrong.”
Zhangsun Wuji's interest was immediately piqued. Du Ruhui, who was known for his decision-making skills, would actually say such words one day.
"Brother Du, what exactly happened? Why don't you tell me and I'll help you analyze it.”
Du Ruhui told Li Shiming about his request to send an army to probe the Turkic situation.
"Your Majesty's words are really full of meaning and foresight!”
Zhangsun Wuji was even more curious now.
"What kind of words can make Brother Du so shocked?”
Du Ruhui seemed to have learned the essence of Li Shiming. He coughed lightly and straightened his back.
"Withdraw your clenched fist so that you can strike with more strength!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhangsun Wuji was shocked.
These words were indeed profound, as deep as the ocean.
However, he was stunned for a moment before he fell into deep thought.
These words…didn't sound like His Majesty's tone.
He and Li Shiming were relatives. They had been together for so many years, so he was naturally familiar with Li Shiming's behavior and habits.
Such words didn't seem to come out of Li Shiming's mouth.
Instead, it was a little like the wise argument of that shopkeeper Little Wang.
Of course, Zhangsun Wuji wasn't sure.
After a moment of silence, Zhangsun Wuji suddenly had an idea.
"Brother Du, the next time His Majesty goes out of the palace in plain clothes, you can ask to accompany him. I believe you can gain more such reasonable words.”
