Chapter 561
"Why do the descendants of the emperor have to be great men and saints? These people have lived in the Sixteenth King's Court since they were young, and they are either princes or dignitaries. They have never lived among the common people for a day. I don’t know what a folk is, and I haven’t even been out of Chang’an.”

"How dangerous is it to hand over Datang to them?"

"Why did I invite you to eat this dish? Because you are my country!"

With a few words, he first explained what he had done in the past, and finally expressed his true feelings, which directly reached the hearts of all the officials present.Right Prime Minister Lin Jiulang swished, tears filled his eyes.

The old emperor walked over, helped Li Shizhi, Prime Minister of the Left with his own hands, and said softly, "You are my soldier!"

"You too……"

"You too……"

One by one, he helped up all the kneeling officials, but He Zhizheng was the only one left behind.

The old emperor glanced at the ministers, and said loudly: "With you standing in front of me, I feel at ease!"

"Saint!..." This time, Lin Jiulang took the lead in crying and kneeling, and everyone knelt down again.

This time, it wasn't about forcing a confession, but about being moved, purely moved by the selfless trust of the sages, including He Zhizheng.

Li Yuanba took a bite of the food, squinted his eyes and commented: "Si Lang is cunning, and he is also a master at manipulating people's hearts."

The old emperor stepped forward to personally support Lin Jiulang, the Prime Minister of the Right, and asked: "How can I make the Tang Dynasty, the world forever?"

Lin Jiulang shouted loudly: "Work hard, work hard day and night!"

Li Yuanying gave a thumbs up, and praised in a low voice: "What a hardworking man who works hard day and night, father, this right minister is a very loyal minister!"

Old Li Yuan scolded with a black face: "Goddam bastard, throughout the ages, there have been big fakes that seem to be true, and big traitors that seem to be loyal. This Lin Jiulang is a master of this way! I have been shopping in Chang'an for a day today, and I heard all the curses from the people. Sound, this Lin Jiulang is by no means a good thing."

The discussion in the corner cannot affect the progress of the palace discussion. Hearing Lin Jiulang's answer, the emperor said with emotion: "The generations of a country cannot be carried by a saint or a surname, but you, are you. You can handle it!"

Impressed!This sensationalism, this brainwashing, is more powerful than the reselling of later generations. Li Yuanying couldn't help but sigh in her heart: Sneak into the night with the wind, moisten things silently!

"Because it doesn't live on its own, it can live forever, and because it is selfless, it can become selfish!" The emperor said, helping He Zhizheng who was kneeling up: "Old He, I thought you could understand!"

He Zhizheng nodded with tears in his eyes.

"General Guo, take off my clothes!"

"Saint!" All the officials knelt down and pleaded, "No saint..."

The emperor sneered contemptuously: "Oh, what? If I take off this yellow robe, I'm not a saint anymore?"

Seeing that Guo Lishi didn't do anything, the emperor started to do it himself. Helplessly, Guo Lishi could only tremble and help him undress, while Feng Shenwei, another servant in red robes, knelt on the ground to help untie his belt.Soon, the emperor's yellow robe was taken off, revealing the same plain clothes as many others.

The difference is that the inside of the emperor is very thick, and the innermost part is a pure white underwear, covered with a set of bright red outer lining, and on top of this outer lining, a set of plain cloth clothes, obviously designed in advance .

"Ah...it's so much easier!" The emperor let out a sigh of relief, stepped onto the dragon chair and turned around, "Get up, everyone."

"What is the Son of Heaven? The Son of Heaven is a dragon, and he is a god! The duty of a god is to reshape the faith for the people of the world! Don't let too many specific right and wrong go to me. From tonight, I will not ask about any government affairs."

"You have eaten my country today, and you have to shoulder the responsibility of all generations of the country for all people!"

Hearing the emperor's words of inspiring generosity, all the officials were also full of spirits, knelt down and shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Hearing this, Li Yuanying said in a low voice: "According to what he said, it would be to suspend the imperial power and let the cabinet concentrate on the parliamentary system. Father and fourth brother, you have all been emperors and governed the country before. This method is feasible. ?"

Old Li Yuan pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Actually, to govern a country, even if one person works day and night, how many things can he handle in one day? He still needs the help of his subordinates, let alone old people, lack of energy, and need to delegate power. As long as there is no problem with the general direction, the emperor does not need to ask too many specific things."

After finishing speaking, several people at the table looked at Li Yuanba, and Li Yuanba spread his hands, "That's what I do. How can I be emperor? I have always given all government affairs to the three provinces and six ministries, and they are much better than me. I just need to be optimistic about who breaks the law and discipline, listen to the sufferings of the people in the government and the opposition, and come back to clean up the officials, haha, so they are afraid of me."

"Fourth brother, you are being modest, and you still say you don't understand government affairs? You can think of a way for the cabinet to govern. Your thinking is very advanced."

"Ahem, I don't know what a cabinet is in charge of. I just want to be a hands-off shopkeeper. No matter how those boys govern the country, as long as the country is safe and the people are safe, I will beat them to death one by one."

...that's okay too?Is this what is said in the legend, rule by doing nothing?
At this time, Zheng Liwan, Princess of Qin, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said in a low voice: "My lord, Shiro seems to be sophistrying all the time. He's trying to cover up the scandal of his negligence and negligence in order to enjoy himself."

"Hey, Liwan, I didn't expect you to be the one with sharp eyes, who hit the nail on the head. You told me before that you don't understand state affairs." Li Yuanying praised.

Zheng Liwan lowered her head shyly.

Li Yuanba said: "Fifth brother, it is a few years in a hurry for you, but for us, it is a long hundred years of waiting. One hundred years of Taoism, one must first cultivate a clear mind before it is possible to achieve the Tao. If you open your eyes and open the world, you can easily see through the illusion and reach the truth."

"Is it the legendary Taoist celestial eye?" Yu Wencheng asked curiously.

"It's about the same. Although it's not that mysterious, there are trails like mind reading."

Hearing Li Yuanba's words, Zheng Liwan's heart trembled, remembering that she was over 100 years old, but her husband seemed to never grow old, not because she was jealous that her husband would not grow old, but because she felt sad, waiting for a hundred years, but in the end she couldn't stay together...

Yu Wencheng turned his head to look at the big flickering emperor, and spit and cursed: "Avoid the important and take the light, and avoid answering old man He's question, but argue for his own laziness. If the cabinet method is really used, why do we need this emperor? Datang doesn’t need a mascot, and he has to spend a huge amount of money every year to support him in extravagance and pleasure? Wouldn’t it be good to save the money and spend it on the people?”

The emperor motioned to Guo Lishi to bring a plate of Jiangshan Da Cai, and said with concern: "Mr. He, you love the Tang Dynasty, not the prince alone. I understand you!"

He Zhizheng bowed down and saluted deeply and said: "Fortunate to accompany you in the year of the Bible, He, this life is not worthless! However, I am too old to judge the holy meaning with the heart of a mortal. Please behead the minister on the big willow tree in Xishi and hang his head for three days. , to wake up future generations!"

Left Prime Minister Li Shizhi and others admired the five-body prostration, weeping secretly, worthy of the head of literati, this is the role model of our generation...
