Chapter 1003 My Way(1/4)
For the emperor and the empress, the word hunger is a bit far away and within reach.
Since childhood, they have never been hungry, but when they took charge of the world, they knew the dangers of hunger to this huge empire.
People will cause trouble if they are not full.
If the army is not full, it will cause trouble.
So we came to a conclusion that food is the most important thing for people.
Li Zhi thought of countless reasons why Jia Ping'an opposed Fengshan, such as spending money and food, such as mobilizing many troops... etc., but he never thought that he was afraid of being hungry.
He glanced at the queen, and the queen's eyes became a little more sad, obviously thinking about Jia Ping'an's experience when she was a child.
I'm afraid of hunger.
He thought of Young Li.
If you know where there is waste, then there will be Yang Deli wherever you know.
A word of fear of being hungry is more direct and violent than the cost of Fengshan.
Why don’t you use that money and food to help the people?
Li Zhi said in a gentle voice: "Do you still remember what happened back then?"
He has seen many officials, most of whom are from extraordinary origins. A very small number of officials from poor origins forget their origins after reaching a certain level. They will be arrogant and extravagant and more greedy than those officials from extraordinary origins. They will look down on their former neighbors and hate those poor people...
Jia Ping'an looked up and said, "Remember."
How could he not remember... wearing the liberation shoes with his toes exposed outside, socks are not available, and the clothes on his body are covered with many patches. In winter, he will have cold ears and frostbite in his hands and feet...
He never forgot those days.
Wu Mei sighed lightly.
The emperor knew the meaning of this sigh, "Would you like to be evil with your colleagues because of this?"
Jia Ping'an said: "The way is different and not to plan for each other."
I have my way, I walk my way.
If you are willing to join this path or agree with this path, then we are friends. It doesn’t matter if you don’t agree, but don’t set obstacles on the road.
It's that simple.
"What if you look at the enemy?"
"Seeking common ground while reserving differences."
Politics has always been an art of compromise, and it will not lead to good results by being tough.
Wang Anshi was as tough as a stone, but the new policy collapsed.
My Tao is there, not far or near, within reach. I am willing to win more friends for my Tao.
It's that simple.
Li Zhi narrowed his eyes and thought of many things.
The court is currently a solid structure. Three of the four prime ministers are his confidants, and one Li Ji is also half a confidant.
He nodded slightly, "You go."
Not demoted?
Jia Ping'an was a little surprised and immediately left.
Wang Zhongliang sent him out and whispered after leaving the hall gate: "Duke Zhao...is very dangerous."
What does it mean?
Jia Ping'an was puzzled, "But your Majesty is furious?"
Your Majesty is not furious!
Wang Zhongliang said unpredictably: "Tao!"
Can you speak human language?
road!
The way can be told.
Very good.
Jia Ping'an frowned and puzzled.
What does Wang Zhongliang mean?
The so-called Tao refers politically to your position and your political declaration.
Jia Ping'an felt a sudden enlightenment as if a light flashed in front of him.
The emperor wants to see my way.
There are currently four prime ministers in the court, and Li Jie is more like a gatekeeper and does not express any opinions when he is fine; the remaining three Xu Jingzong are half of his own people; Li Yifu and Shangguan Yi are both bastards.
In other words, after the emperor cleaned up the prime minister, he suddenly found that he was surrounded by his confidants.
When you are surrounded by confidants, your career is in danger.
You have to listen to different voices, but your confidant won't say this.
The emperor wants to try my way and see my persistence...
He needs an important minister who can trust and stick to his own way, rather than a submissive person... There are too many submissive ministers, and the three prime ministers in the court are all.
This is a test.
If not, Sister would definitely find a way to remind me.
Yes!
Sister hasn't moved.
My way!
Jia Ping'an looked to the left.
On the left is the east.
The sun rises from the east, magnificent and cannot be seen directly.
The sun shines all things, and the water conserves all things, so it is vast and unstoppable.
Jia Ping'an thought of a sentence.
The red sun rises, and the way is bright!
...
The emperor and the empress walked slowly in the palace.
"After becoming an emperor, life and death are just one side, and determining honor and disgrace is the most sharp weapon of the emperor. Over the years, countless people have either smiled flatteringly or flattered me with righteousness. They speak carefully or passionately... the purpose is for my attention."
Li Zhi's eyebrows slightly raised, "Some people are full of loyalty, some people pretend to be gentlemen and make people disgusted. I just want to know the thoughts of the ministers and his way. But when I meet many people, I have never had my own way."
Wu Mei said: "The so-called Tao must be to have one's own understanding of the country and the world, and to change these thoughts for this."
"There are many ministers who have ideas." Li Zhi's eyes were faint, "Many ministers will have some ideas, but they cannot stick to it. There are too many temptations in the world, how can they stop wine, sex, wealth and energy? So they slid into the abyss and forgot their own way."
He suddenly held Wu Mei's hand and said with a bright look: "If I hadn't known that you hadn't vented Jia Ping'an, I would have thought that what he said today was from you."
Wu Mei frowned slightly, "This matter is very important, I hope that peace can be safe, and above this, we can talk about the court."
The emperor looked at her with praise, "I have been looking at him these days and have given some hints from time to time, so the impeachment became more and more fierce. I have seen many officials, and Li Yifu had ambitions back then, but he still took the path of cruel officials for the sake of high-ranking officials. How many people can be called in front of the temptation? Jia Ping'an was unmoved."
Wu Mei thought a lot, "I remember the first time I saw Ping'an, he was wearing the clothes of a hundred riders, carrying a knife around his waist, and looked childish..."
At that time, Jia Ping'an looked more like a younger brother next door.
Wu Mei recalled: "At that time, he didn't look at those women at all."
This is innocence.
"He has faced many temptations over the years. If he wants, he can act as a hero outside under the name of Queen Ah, but how could he have done this?"
Wu Mei's voice gradually became sonorous and powerful, "My brother is naturally not the one who forgets his righteousness when he sees profit and forgets his righteousness. Even when facing swords and seas of fire, he has his own way. For his way, he dares to kill officials outside the imperial city; for his way, he dares to bring 50,000 Japanese girls back to Chang'an!"
Wu Mei looked at the emperor and felt a sense of sternness between her eyebrows, "Pingan has never been a slander like Li Yi's mansion!"
...
Someone came from the palace.
The visitor went straight to the Ministry of War.
"This is His Majesty's reward."
A jade pendant.
Jade is noble and hard.
The guess outside shattered.
