As Wei Zheng answered the Emperor's question, he was puzzled. Hadn't these words been said in the royal court before?
Did His Majesty forget?
Or was he deliberately finding a way to beat him up and change the topic?
However, there was nothing wrong with this. It was indeed a matter of state affairs.
Wei Zheng told him everything that needed to be prepared and done about the court affairs and the Tibetan delegation that had been sent to Tang.
Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Li Jing listened from the side, nodding occasionally.
These things had already been passed and were already in the process of being implemented.
However, he did not know why His Majesty suddenly asked Wei Zheng.
"That's right. The Imperial Censor is wholeheartedly thinking about the government. His loyalty can be seen from the sun and the moon.”
"Add pen and grind ink. Zhen wants to personally write an inscription for the Imperial Censor as a reward!”
Li Er clapped his hands and smiled. He was about to call the guards to write an inscription for Wei Zheng.
What was this?
Wei Zheng was confused by Li Er's actions.
In the past, every time he remonstrated, the Emperor's expression would be as ugly as it could be. There were even a few times when he almost chased him out. What was wrong with him today?
Was he playing tricks on her or something?
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were also taken aback. They looked at the Emperor with strange expressions, not knowing what to say.
Could it be that the Emperor was putting on a show for the imperial censor?
Or was it to ease the relationship between the monarch and his subjects?
"Your Majesty, I dare not. Thank you for your kindness.”
Wei Zheng was not a fool. He reacted and hurriedly bowed."As a subject of the Great Tang, this subject ought to share Your Majesty's worries and difficulties. I don't deserve such praise.”
Who could stand being praised for no reason!
Moreover, this matter was not solely his credit. Du Mian was still standing at the side. All the arrangements were made by these two people.
But he had never received such an honor before!
"Why not?"
"Come, come, come. It's not just you. Ah Qiao and Ke Ming, you two also contributed. I want to personally write an inscription for the two of you so that you don't feel that I'm biased towards Wei Zheng.”
Li Er smiled as he looked at Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.
Qiao?
Fang Xuanling's body trembled.
My mother!
What happened?
His Majesty's tone was not right!
Du Ruhui wasn't any better. The two of them looked at each other and hurriedly bowed in fear."Your Majesty, I don't know what I did wrong to make Your Majesty unhappy. I hope Your Majesty can forgive me!”
Originally, these two big shots were still watching from the side. Now, their hearts trembled and they hurriedly went up to admit their mistakes.
Li Jing hesitated for a moment when he saw the fear and trepidation of the three of them.
This... what did it have to do with him?
Forget it, let's go!
It was not embarrassing!
Just as he was about to bow down and admit his mistake, Li Er waved his hand."Apothecary, this has nothing to do with you. We'll talk about it later.”
Hearing this, Li Jing wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly said,"Yes, Your Majesty."
Li Er looked at the three of them and smiled." This matter isn't entirely your fault. We and the auxiliary army are all at fault!"”
"Moreover, it was a huge mistake!”
"Ancestors, don't you think so?"
Zhangsun Wuji had already understood that the Emperor had been holding back his anger earlier for the sake of creating momentum at this moment. He said,"This matter is the fault of me, the Imperial Censor, and the Left and Right Prime Ministers. If not for this, Your Majesty would not have been blinded like this.”
Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui gulped nervously.
Damned Zhangsun Wuji, if you knew about it earlier, you should have informed us in advance!
Now that His Majesty was so confused, what should he do if he asked what he did wrong later?
However, since things had come to this, Li Er no longer planned to tease them.
"My mistake was that I should not have been greedy for flashy achievements and allowed those small factions to secretly plot against my Great Tang. Fortunately, there is still a chance to make up for it!”
"Fang Xuanling, let me ask you, what is the purpose of the Tibetan envoy to the Great Tang?”
Li Er mocked himself first, then looked at Fang Xuanling and asked.
Hearing this, Fang Xuanling raised his head and thought for a moment before saying,""The Tibetans have sent their diplomatic mission to the Great Tang in order to repair their relationship with the Great Tang and to obtain the Great Tang's help to quickly stabilize their internal forces and develop their national strength.”
This was the most basic, but it was also the goal of the Tibetans.
Li Er nodded and looked at Du Ruhui, asking,""Ruhui, let me ask you. The Tubo sent me a letter a few days ago, hoping that I could marry a princess to the Tubo royal family like how I treated Tuyuhun. If this matter was given to you, how would you decide?”
Hearing this, Du Ruhui said without hesitation,""This is a marriage proposal. We can win over the Tubo without spending a single soldier or group.”
"What should I say about the dowry?" Li Er smiled.”
"The dowry should naturally have the style of the Great Tang," Du Ruhui said."The number should not be too small, or it will lose the dignity of the Great Tang…"
