The next day, morning court.
Li Er looked at the officials below.
"Tell me. Yesterday, Retired Emperor felt a wave of fatigue. Do you have any other methods?”he asked.
Although he already had a plan in mind, the matter of building a temporary palace involved many things. Moreover, the Great Tang was recovering, so Li Er would not speak of it himself. Otherwise, he would be labeled as someone who was greedy for pleasure.
Li Er understood this.
"Retired Emperor's health is getting worse and worse recently. As officials, don't you want to share the burden of the Lord?”
As Li Er's voice fell, a pin drop could be heard in the court!
Du Ruhui and the others in the front row did not speak. Even Wei Zheng, who would usually retort from time to time, did not dare to speak.
Li Yuan.
Retired Emperor.
This was a taboo in the Great Tang, so it was fine for them to privately suggest sending palace maids.
But now, in the imperial court, the historian was recording.
If he said,"Send some palace maids to the Retired Emperor for entertainment."
F * ck, I really don't know what these historians with pens will write. A moment of carelessness could result in a thousand years of infamy. Who would dare?
As for the proper proposal, they had thought about it a lot before and almost squeezed their brains dry. None of them were effective. Now, they really could not think of anything.
Li Er waited for a while. Seeing that no one spoke, he continued,
"Pei Ji, your relationship with the Retired Emperor has always been good, do you have any ideas?”
Li Er looked at Pei Ji.
This was the first time Li Er had mentioned Li Yuan in public during the morning assembly.
Usually, he would discuss with Fang Xuanling and his close aides in private.
When Pei Ji heard Li Er call out his name, he had a worried expression as he took a few steps forward and stepped out.
He had been close friends with Li Yuan for many years. Now that he heard the bad news about his old friend, he was even more worried.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"The Retired Emperor is already old and is living alone in Taiji Palace. As time passes, his heart will feel sealed. This subject requests that this subject accompany the Retired Emperor.”
Pei Ji said as tears streamed down his face.
Li Er's eyes narrowed, but he still smiled and nodded.
Let you go in to accompany Retired Emperor? Hehe…What if Li Yuan commands you to contact the officials outside to rebel?
Li Er swept his gaze across the hall and could not help but sulk.
This group of people really thought that they were a bunch of trash.
"Zhangsun Wuji, you are a servant of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Do you have a better idea?”Li Er still looked at Zhangsun Wuji, who already knew the answer.
"Your Majesty!"
As expected, Zhangsun Wuji did not disappoint. He stepped forward and said directly,
" I think that the Retired Emperor will be bored if he stays in Taiji Palace. It's better to build a temporary palace in Chang 'an to support the Retired Emperor.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Xuanling bowed and said,"I agree!"
Li Er nodded in satisfaction." This is a good idea. I'll allow it!"”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhangsun Wuji said loudly.
Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, and the others watched Li Er, Zhangsun Wuji, and Fang Xuanling echo each other and were slightly suspicious.
This method?
Who thought of that?
It had only been a day, but His Majesty had already decided on such a big matter. Moreover, he had not even discussed it with them.
Wei Zheng's eyes flickered a few times, but he still did not step forward to object.
It couldn't be helped. Retired Emperor was too sensitive a topic. Wei Zheng wasn't stupid. On the contrary, he was very shrewd. He knew what he could say to the death and what it was best not to say a word.
However, this plan?
Wei Zheng looked at Zhangsun Wuji and then at Fang Xuanling. He suddenly recalled the conversation between the three of them outside the city wall that day.
Motherf * cker!
These two people must have accompanied the Emperor out of the palace again, and they did not call him.
In an instant, Wei Zheng had an answer in his heart. It must be so. Otherwise, His Majesty had been worrying about this, but everything was solved when he came back from the palace yesterday…
"Since that's the case, after the court session, all the officials above the third rank who are free should follow zhen to visit the Retired Emperor.”Li Er said again.
Everyone received the decree!
-------------
Taiji Palace.
Dozens of people gathered.
Li Yuan sat in the courtyard, his eyes in a daze. He seemed to be delirious.
Li Er held the mahjong tile in his arms. He walked over and laid it out.
"Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, come over here.”
Then, Li Er squatted beside Li Yuan and whispered something.
"Watch carefully. This thing could cure all diseases. The Retired Emperor was instantly full of vigor.”Fang Xuanling whispered to Du Ruhui and the others beside him before running out.
Behind them, Du Ruhui and the others looked at Zhangsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, who were playing mahjong, with even more confusion in their eyes.
What was this?
Instantly full of life?
It must be a joke.
The Retired Emperor's spirit was really on the verge of collapse, as if his soul had already left his body.
They looked at Li Yuan with a hint of pity in their eyes.
Under Li Er's service, Li Yuan finally moved. He sat due east.
The four sat down.
Shuffling, checking, shuffling…
Li Yuan's face gradually revealed his emotions.
Zhangsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling had even used all their skills.
It didn't take long.
" Haha, I'm going to win…"
"Don't move! Don't move, touch! Haha, you didn't expect this, did you?"
"Hey, hey, hey, flowers bloom on the fence. Pay up, pay up. Hurry up and drip.”
“······”
Li Yuan took off his long robe, and his previously stiff and dull face was now glowing red.
Unknowingly, the morning court session ended and the afterglow of the sunset appeared.
The small mahjong table was surrounded by ministers. They looked on excitedly, muttering from time to time, laughing and regretting.
Even when they looked at the cards, they were already addicted.
When they came out of Taiji Palace.
Li Er's face was orange and warm under the setting sun.
The ministers behind him seemed to have more to say as they discussed and resumed the previous game.
"This game called Mahjong is really exquisite. The person who can come up with this game is a genius in the world!!! He was a genius of the world. It's better to sigh than to sigh!" Li Jing sighed.
" Yes, judging the winning or losing trend of each family based on the cards in one's hand, the cards on the table, and the cards played by the other families. The small table is full of endless changes. How wonderful!!!”Du Ruhui praised.
"By coordinating and using it properly, the weak will replace the strong. On the contrary, if one did not have the overall situation in mind and failed to deploy, no matter how good it was, there was nothing they could do.”Wei Zheng was also full of praise.
"Did you see that? The Retired Emperor's condition today was already glowing!”
"That's right. Your Majesty is truly a sage emperor. For the sake of filial piety, you can actually come up with such a plan.”
“·······”
Li Shi Min laughed loudly as he listened to the discussions of the officials behind him.
He turned around and looked at Taiji Palace under the afterglow.
" Little Langjun, little Langjun!"
"I can't see through you enough. What kind of god are you?”
Zhangsun Wuji stood at the side, his eyes slightly lowered.
He didn't know what His Majesty would do if he revealed his cards one day.
