Below One Person and Above Ten Thousand
In the Imperial Palace.
In the royal study.
"Your Majesty, you are so assured and bold to let Lord Wei recruit you.”Empress Zhangsun massaged Li Shimin's shoulders and asked,""What if Young Master Lin really agrees?"
Li Shiming smiled and patted the back of her hand.
He still trusted his judgment.
On the road, the face is as beautiful as jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world.
It was the most appropriate way to evaluate Lin Fan.
If such a genius was really so easily recruited into the court…
He did not need to worry about it.
Li Shi Min was overjoyed.
This was a profitable business.
? Lin Fan definitely wouldn't be recruited by Wei Zheng. The bet with Wei Zheng was already in an undefeatable position from the start.
When he thought about how Wei Zheng would no longer glare at him in the court, he was filled with relief.
Although he wanted to hear the truth, he was willing to hear the truth.
But he didn't say that he was shameless!
After all, I'm the ruler of a country. You, Wei Zheng, insulted me in front of all the ministers.
Where am I supposed to put my face?
The emperor doesn't care about face!
"Don't worry, Guanyin Maid. Lord Wei has lost from the start.”"Have you told Chang Le about Lin Fan?" Li Shi Min smiled.”
"Not yet. ChenQie thought of telling Changle in a few days.”
Li Shi Min nodded and told her the good news.
Previously, she had already quarreled with him countless times because she was unwilling to marry Zhangsun Chong.
His precious daughter had been spoiled since she was young. He was afraid that she would melt in his mouth and be shocked when he held her in his hand.
She had grown up with a silver spoon in her mouth. Once her unruly temper rose, she even dared to disobey her own words.
When Li Shi Min thought about the future, where the two clowns, Chang Le and Lin Fan, would be together, the smile on his face grew even wider.
"Your Majesty, Lord Zhangsun and Lord Wei are outside the door.”The eunuch beside him said softly.
Li Shi Min was stunned.
Why were these two people together?
Could it be that he just came back from drinking?
"Hurry up and invite him in!"
"Creak." A sound rang out.
Zhangsun Wuji and Wei Zheng rushed into the house.
Their faces were red, and wherever they passed, there was a strong smell of white wine.
"Your Majesty, Empress Zhangsun.”
"No need for formalities. Please take a seat."
"All of you can leave." Li Shi Min sat upright and waved his hand, ordering the palace maids and eunuchs to leave.
Empress Zhangsun saw this and hurriedly said,"Your Majesty, then ChenQie will also take her leave first."”
After she finished speaking, she lifted her leg and was about to leave. Just as she took half a step, she realized that a large hand was around her waist, preventing her from moving.
"Your Majesty!"
Li Shi Min pondered for a moment and waited for the servants to leave.
"Guanyin maid, don't panic. We won't discuss politics today.”Li Shi Min rolled his eyes and said,"Wuji, Wei Zheng, is the wine good today?”
Empress Zhangsun was confused and looked at Li Shimin with a questioning gaze.
"Sit down and let's listen together. Let's talk about our son-in-law.”
"Your Majesty is wise. Nothing can hide from Your Majesty's eyes.”
"Burp!"
Zhangsun Wuji hurriedly said. Halfway through his sentence, he suddenly burped loudly, and his face instantly turned red.
Li Shimin sneered," Save it, stop flattering me. I know you."”
Zhangsun Wuji cupped his hands and lowered his head in embarrassment.
Wei Zheng trembled violently. He seemed to have sobered up.
Son-in-law?
His eyes widened as he stared at Li Shiming.
She understood immediately when she saw him trying to hold back his laughter.
No wonder the Emperor dared to bet with him. He had already planned to marry his daughter to Lin Fan.
Wei Zheng knew that he had been tricked by Li Shimin and was shocked and angry.
Li Shi Min couldn't hold it in anymore and laughed,"Wei Zheng, how was your harvest?"
"Why don't you tell me about it and let me listen?”
Wei Zheng gritted his teeth. He was so angry that his head was dizzy, but he had no choice. He said with a depressed tone,"Wei Zheng admires your talent.”
The meaning behind his words was that he was unhappy.
Li Shi Min leaned forward and deliberately provoked,"Wei Zheng, why do I hear your words being so sarcastic?”
Wei Zheng cupped his hands and said with an unfriendly attitude,"I dare not!"
"Did my son-in-law neglect Lord Wei?”Li Shimin pretended to be angry and slammed the table angrily,"It doesn't matter if you say it. If this matter really happens, I will definitely take revenge for Lord Wei!”
Zhangsun Wuji covered his mouth and finally could not hold it in anymore.
He laughed out loud.
Li Shiming stopped pretending and laughed along with the others.
Even Empress Zhangsun covered her mouth with her sleeve and smiled.
Wei Zheng was like a wronged wife, sitting on the chair and glaring.
Zhangsun Wuji laughed for a while until tears were squeezed out. He then rubbed the corner of his eyes and coughed lightly.
"Your Majesty, Lord Wei and I met the Grand Tutor on this trip.”
Li Shi Min's expression changed.
"Kong Yingda?"
Zhangsun Wuji nodded.
"Hurry up and tell me, why did this stubborn old man go to Lin Fan's place?”
Zhangsun Wuji explained the whole story in detail.
He was like a storyteller, telling vividly and vividly.
He did not forget to tease Wei Zheng along the way.
Li Shimin slapped the table and stood up." Good poem!”
"The poem is mixed with lofty sentiments.”
?" It fits Lin Fan's style."
" Your Majesty," Zhangsun Wuji cupped his hands and said," I believe that Lin Fan's literary attainments are not inferior to the eighteen scholars.”
Li Shi Min held his chin and nodded.
To be able to make Kong Yingda address him as Mister, he probably didn't have such treatment.
In addition to that, the sentence " only learning cannot be linked to the word " profit " was simply a harsh slap to his face.
It also alerted the scholars who had long forgotten their original intentions.
It was truly rare to have such insights and comprehension.
"Good!"
Li Shi Min shouted happily.
Not only was Lin Fan knowledgeable, but he was also well versed in the ways of life.
If he had really mocked Kong Yingda, he might not have been so happy.
Kong Yingda was the Grand Tutor after all, and he was already old.
According to his age, he could be Lin Fan's grandfather.
If he really got sick from anger, it would be hard for her to explain herself.
However, Lin Fan was young and mature, giving them a way out. His conduct was not inferior to these old foxes who had been officials for many years.
It was truly rare.
Li Shimin was delighted and said,"How do you think I should reward Lin Fan?”
At this moment,
Wei Zheng, who had not spoken for a long time, finally spoke.
"He's one of the most important ministers of the Great Tang!”
