"Why can't I tear it?"
Li Er stared at the Duke of Wei and asked.
The Duke of Wei said,"Your Majesty, although the words 'the world is for the common', come from the Book of Rites, I don't think His Highness King Qi meant it when he used it here. I think Your Majesty has misunderstood."”
"Oh? What do you mean?" Li Er asked again.
The Duke of Wei replied,"I believe that this Duke is not that Duke!" King Qi had written that the world belonged to the public, meaning that the world belonged not only to His Majesty, but to all the people. Therefore, governing the world should be based on the people. This was the true world for the public. As for the original meaning of the Book of Rites, I believe that King Qi, as a member of the Imperial Family, would never say such words.”
He knew that Li Er understood the original meaning of the Book of Rites, which was why he was so angry.
The country is passed on to the wise, not to the son? Unless his head was squeezed by the door!
That was just a beautiful vision of a harmonious society. It was simply impossible to achieve.
"I agree!" Xuan Ling, who was standing behind the Duke of Wei, stood up and said.
"I agree with Duke Zheng.”Dugu Wuji said.
"We agree."
The others chimed in.
Li Er nodded slightly. He felt that what the Duke of Wei said was indeed very reasonable.
That was true. Li You was his son and a member of the royal family. How could he say nonsense like passing on the virtuous and not the son?
If the Great Tang Empire was no longer surnamed Li, then what was the point of Li You being a carefree king?
As the saying goes, one glory is one glory, one loss is one loss.
Li You would definitely not say such nonsense out of consideration for his own interests.
If Li You was present, he would definitely admire the Duke of Wei.
Indeed, the Duke of Wei was right.
The meaning of Li You's words was basically what the Duke of Wei had explained.
"My dear minister, you are right. I was wrong before."”
After the Duke of Wei's analysis, he felt that Li You was quite talented and not as useless as he had imagined.
The world is for all. These four short and powerful words contained a profound principle.
"Your Majesty, why don't you give this lowly subject King Qi's answer sheet?”At this moment, the Duke of Wei said.
"What are you doing here?" Li Er asked curiously.
The Duke of Wei laughed." I think King Qi is quite talented. You can keep this calligraphy."”
"Go, go, go. You're thinking too much." After Li Er heard this, he waved his hand and refused.
Now, he had completely changed his opinion of Li You.
Initially, he thought that Li You was ignorant and uncourteous, but it seemed that this was not the case at the moment.
Li You obviously had some ink in his stomach. Otherwise, he would not have been able to write such a thing.
Next, he looked at the other princes 'answers.
Among them, Li Chengqian and Li Tai's were the best. Li Tai's was even better than Li Chengqian's.
Li Tai was indeed talented and his writing was of a high standard.
However, no matter how Li Er looked at it, he felt that something was missing.
He recalled Li You's poem and the words " the world is for the public." He felt that although Li Chengqian and Li Tai's poems and articles were written with gorgeous words, they were a little too flashy and superficial.
Li You's writing was simple and clear, and it went straight to the point, leaving a deep impression on him.
The others seemed to have written very well, but they weren't deep enough.
However, in the end, Li Er still picked out Li Chengqian and Li Tai's answers for the ministers to read. It could be considered as encouragement and praise for the two.
As for Li You's answer sheet, he had other ideas.
After the court session ended, he asked the Duke of Wei, Xuan Ling, Dugu Wuji, Xiao Yu, Gao Shilian, and the other civil officials to stay behind.
"Dear ministers, what do you think of Fifth Prince Li You?”
Li Er looked at them and asked.
After everyone heard his words, they could not help but look at each other.
Finally, the Duke of Wei spoke first.”
"Yes, Your Majesty. We might have underestimated King Qi.”Xuan Ling added.
"Your Majesty, I believe that His Highness King Qi needs to be properly educated and nurtured. He was open-minded at such a young age and had great knowledge, which meant that he was an intelligent person. But this subject has heard some rumors about His Highness King Qi and knows that he is difficult to discipline. But if we let him go and let him abandon his studies and take the wrong path, it will be a great loss for the Great Tang!”
After all, he was the country's brother-in-law, a relative of the royal family. Naturally, he hoped that Li You could grow up well.
"That's right, Your Majesty. If King Qi's tree isn't trimmed properly and grows crooked in the future, Your Majesty will probably regret it.”Duke Du.
"I'm afraid that not only will he regret it, but His Majesty will also have to bear the responsibility.”Xiao Yu said even more harshly.
"Your Highness, King Qi, we really need to take care of this." Gao Shilian said.”
Seeing that the few ministers he relied on had said so, Li Er also replied in agreement,"Yes, this one indeed thinks so.”
In the beginning, he was very angry with Li You. He directly ranked Li You as trash, and it was the kind that ranked first.
However, he had completely changed his mind now.
Not only did he not hate Li You, but he even admired him!
"Dear ministers, why don't you come with me to the Fifth Prince's place to take a look?”
Li Er said.
"We are willing to go."
Everyone replied in unison.
