Hearing Li Shimin's words, Wei Zheng immediately perked up his ears.
No wonder His Majesty suddenly changed his mind.
Li Shimin stood up and waved at Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng followed Li Shimin to the inner room of the study and saw a framed word hanging on the wall.
"Take a look at these three sentences first.”
Wei Zheng walked closer to take a look. After reading it carefully, his expression changed drastically.
"Your Majesty, these three sentences are well said and have endless meaning. If one can understand these principles, it will benefit one for life!”
Li Shiming pointed at the place where Wang Chen signed.
"It was this person who advised me to learn from others so that I could distinguish right from wrong and know right from wrong.”
"Because of his words, I understand that you, Wei Zheng, can be used as a reference to see my gains and losses.”
Wei Zheng immediately looked over carefully.
"Your Majesty, may I ask which sage this Wang Chen is?”
"I wonder if he lives in seclusion in Mount Zhongnan or some other immortal mountain or treasure land.”
Li Shi Min shook his head.
"He's just the shopkeeper of a small restaurant in Taiping Square of Chang 'an. The merchant Li on that table is me.”
???
Wei Zheng was immediately dumbfounded.
'F * ck, what's the situation with the tavern's shopkeeper?'
Of course, he knew that Li Shiming often ran out of the palace these days. Last time, he was caught red-handed by him because he reeked of alcohol.
But when did the shopkeeper of a small restaurant in Chang 'an City have such ability?
Could it be that he, Wei Zheng, had been in the court for so long that he had deviated from the track of the times and that everyone in the Great Tang was like a dragon?
Looking at Wei Zheng's stunned expression, Li Shimin patted his shoulder.
"You only need to know his name. I won't say much about anything else. If you want to know, go ask Zhangsun Wuji and Du Ruhui.”
Wei Zheng nodded stiffly. His mind was in a mess.
However, he quickly regained his senses and asked,""Then I wonder who the second candidate is, Your Majesty?”
"It's Empress Zhangsun." Li Shi Min said straightforwardly.
"Last night, she specially prepared a table of supper in her bedroom and invited zhen over to plead for mercy on your behalf. She said that you were a true loyal person, but your words were a little straightforward.”
Wei Zheng was stunned.
"The Empress is truly the virtuous mother of the country, she really has the demeanor of a mother of the world.”
"Your Majesty, please thank the Empress on behalf of this subject.”
"I have nothing to repay the Empress 'trust in me. I can only do my best to assist Your Majesty and strengthen the might of the Great Tang.”
"This subject is willing to die!"
After saying that, Wei Zheng bowed down again and kowtowed to Li Shimin.
Seeing Wei Zheng's solemn attitude, Li Shimin finally felt relieved.
After all, it was Shopkeeper Little Wang and Empress Zhangsun who had really contributed to this matter.
Li Shimin wanted Wei Zheng to know who was supporting him.
Li Shimin felt that he should let Wei Zheng know about that shopkeeper, Little Wang.
……
After having lunch, Wei Zheng left Li Shimin's study and ordered his servants to drive to Zhangsun Wuji's residence.
An hour later, he came out of Zhangsun Manor in a daze.
Predict the blizzard in the north and the drought in the east of the river in advance?
Did he predict that the imperial court would build a temporary palace?
He had foresight, brains, understanding of the ways of the world, and was capable of literature and martial arts?
Is he a close friend of His Majesty?
Was this a heaven-sent genius, a blessing to the Great Tang?
Such a person was currently only the shopkeeper of a small tavern!
!!!
Wei Zheng was dumbfounded, and his worldview collapsed.
Was it because talent was worthless, or did this kind of genius have a strange habit?
However, no matter what, Wei Zheng had already asked Wang Chen about all of his deeds.
At the same time, he had an idea in his heart. He would definitely go to this tavern to take a look next time.
When the time came, he would try to get this rare young man to work as a secretary.
It was a waste to be a tavern manager. It was better to review the official documents of the Ministry of Central Affairs under his hands, or to follow the emperor's etiquette when he had nothing to do.
As for the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel, they shouldn't be places for such talents!
With this thought in mind, Wei Zheng boarded the carriage home and closed his eyes to think.
As for the fact that he had indirectly affected the fate of another important official of the court, Wang Chen himself was completely unaware.
In his mind, he was still a transmigrator waiting for the system to activate.
As for people like Li Shimin and Empress Zhangsun, they were still far away from him.
Perhaps after his system awakened, he would be able to quickly ascend to the Imperial Court and rise rapidly.
However, at this stage, he was still thinking about how to make a lot of money, such as making the strong white wine taste smoother.
……
Three days later, Li Shiming was ready to leave the palace in his ordinary clothes.
However, this time, he did not think of going to Wang Chen's tavern.
The reason why he left the palace in civilian clothes was because he had something important to do.
He wanted to go to Anhua Gate in Chang 'an and see a high-ranking official in the imperial court who was demoted to Jingzhou in Sichuan.
Duke Pei Ji of Wei.
This person could be considered a true elder of the court. He had been by Li Yuan's side since the beginning of the uprising.
Li Yuan raised an army in Taiyuan and eventually ascended the throne. Pei Ji had contributed greatly to the success of the Great Tang.
But today, he was exiled to Jingzhou because of his crime.
