"Your Majesty, I also feel that the net is too big and cannot be touched in public. Please take back the divine order of the army to surround the city!”Zhangsun Wuji also reported.
These ministers were afraid of the net.
Li Jing was seriously injured and could not catch the net, let alone a group of civil officials.
"Do you want me to bow to the net?" Li Shi Min said with a tired tone.”
Du Ruhui and Zhangsun Wuji immediately knelt down and said,""I dare not!"
Sitting on the dragon throne, Li Shiming was expressionless and did not ask the two of them to get up.
Yi Country Duke Qin Qiong reported and roughly recounted what happened last night.
It wasn't for Li Shi Min to hear, but to let these ministers realize the seriousness of the situation.
If they continued to go against the Network, so what if they had 100,000 soldiers?
The master of the net still came and went as he pleased.
Li Chengqian recalled the critical moment. If not for Yuan Tiangang, he would not have been able to see the sun today. He could not help but report with lingering fear,
"Imperial Father, your son believes that the two sirs are right. Although the Network is mysterious, it is not against the Great Tang, so there is no need to deal with it.”
Li Shi Min's eyes were low, but he was not angry." I heard that the Crown Prince went to Vermilion Bird Street last night and lost many people.”
"Father, I only want to help you share your worries and resolve the problem of the network as soon as possible, so…" Li Chengqian hurriedly knelt down in fear.
Halfway through, there was no sound.
A second ago, Li Chengqian had even said that he would forgive the net and not pursue his whereabouts.
And now, he said that he would help Li Shimin to remove the net.
Wei Zheng's expression changed and he immediately went forward to report,"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince is indeed helping Your Majesty to share your worries, but the network is mysterious and experts are as numerous as clouds. It is not something that can be eliminated in a short period of time.”
"Your Majesty, we are no match for the master of the net. For the sake of Your Majesty's safety, please reconsider!" Yuchi Jingde followed closely.”
All the officials were remonstrating, hoping that Li Shimin would give up on attacking the net.
Li Rui looked at these people in boredom. They were trying to give Li Shimin a way out.
In reality, everyone knew in their hearts that the imperial court was no match for the Network, but they could not let the Emperor lower his head.
They could only sacrifice themselves. This was also their duty as officials.
Li Shi Min didn't seem to hear him. He glanced at the officials below and asked abruptly,"How is Minister Li's injury?"
Taking a step forward, Li Jing replied respectfully,""Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I'm fine, but I won't be able to share your worries for the next few days.”
"Beloved minister, just rest well. There's no need to worry about anything else.”"Is there any news about the state preceptor?" Li Shi Min asked casually.”
Actually, Li Shiming's main purpose for asking was to get more information about Li Chunfeng.
Li Jing sighed helplessly in his heart. He could only brace himself and answer," Your Majesty, the Imperial Advisor has sent a message. He left Chang 'an this time to avoid and face the tribulation. He can't interfere with what happens here, and he won't return to Chang' an.”
"However, the Imperial Advisor said that the Great Tang is prosperous. No matter what happens, please do not worry.”
Imperial Advisor Li Chunfeng, the pillar of the Great Tang.
Li Rui pondered. Could it be that Li Chunfeng could really calculate it?
Otherwise, how could he be so sure that the Great Tang would not have any worries?
Could he know his identity?
Thinking of this, Li Rui suddenly became interested in this state preceptor.
Previously, Li Chunfeng was the same as Yuan Tiangang and would not participate in the court meeting.
It was only because Li Shimin had something to do that he invited Li Chunfeng into the palace or personally went to the Imperial Advisor's residence.
The others didn't know much about Li Chunfeng.
In Li Rui's memory, he had only seen Li Chunfeng three times.
"Go back and get the net to investigate the Imperial Preceptor. I wonder how much of this king can be divined?”Li Rui thought to himself.
However, Li Shimin saw his thoughtful expression.
The other princes lowered their heads in fear.
Only Li Rui, who had been deep in thought for a moment, appeared unusually calm and confident.
When he recalled Li Rui's performance at Weishui River, Li Shimin had other thoughts.
After Li Jing reported the Imperial Advisor's message, Li Shimin did not say a word, and the ministers did not dare to breathe loudly.
This was the last resort to persuade His Majesty. If he insisted on fighting to the death with the Network, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Fortunately, Li Shimin finally spoke," All my beloved ministers, please get up. Let's put the matter of the network aside for the time being. The 100,000 troops outside the city will be transferred back to the encampment."”
The officials immediately felt relieved and said in unison,""Your Majesty is wise!"
"Minister Right Servant Li Jing, conquering the Turks and guarding Chang 'an. He was rewarded with one thousand taels of gold and ten thousand hectares of fertile land. After Pei Ji retired and returned to his hometown, the position of Prime Minister was vacant.”
"This subject receives the decree to thank you!"
Li Rui looked at the man who was injured by him and could not help but sigh in his heart, Li Jing's legendary life has just begun, but he was seriously injured by me. It seems that I was too harsh yesterday.”
Li Jing, Yuchi Jingde, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and the others were all rewarded.
Just as Li Rui was thinking about hitting Li Jing too hard, he suddenly heard his own name.
"Ning Wang Li Rui, listen up."
The officials were stunned and looked at Li Rui.
What the hell? Are you calling me?
Li Rui shook his head in confusion. Everyone was sizing him up.
"What are you waiting for, Your Highness? His Majesty just called you." Cheng Yaojin reminded him in a low voice.”
"Your son is here!"
Li Rui hurriedly stepped forward and replied.
He couldn't understand why he was called. Not only did he not help in the fight against the net, but he was also the one who injured those people.
"Ning Prince Li Rui, I will leave the matter of Zhuque Street to you. Repair the streets and appease the people.”
Li Shi Min's dignified voice was devoid of any emotion, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
Crown Prince Li Chengqian turned around and stared at Li Rui with a gloomy expression.
He didn't understand why his father would let such a useless prince deal with Vermilion Bird Street. Li Rui's residence didn't even have any soldiers.
Li Tai, Li Ke, and the other princes all looked sideways at their unsociable brother.
He had never fought with them before. Their understanding of him was just drinking wine and listening to music.
Why did his father give him a mission this time?
Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, and Cheng Yaojin were the happiest people. Their sons were now people of the Ning Imperial Residence.
This time, His Majesty specifically asked Prince Ning to do something. It seemed that their judgment was not wrong.
But Li Rui didn't want to!
"Imperial Father, your son has no time recently.”
"What's the matter?" Li Shiming asked calmly.”
"Your son still…uh, your son obeys the decree!”Halfway through his sentence, Li Rui honestly agreed.
Because he was busy listening to music, he had already made an appointment with the courtesan of the Thousand Water Pavilion.
However, for such words to be said in the Imperial Court, he would probably be punished.
Li Shi Min nodded in satisfaction.
The chief eunuch shouted,"Retreat!"
The court is over, the court is over. Please vote for the flowers ~
