Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

If Li Daozong doesn't understand what it means, then he is a fool, but Li Daozong alone is not enough.

But Li Daozong's standing still made many ministers take a deep look, and they seemed to be thinking about something in their hearts.

Chapter 237 Send proposition, the only solution

"Is that what happened?"

In the courtroom, Du Ruhui secretly glanced at His Majesty and then at the officials, thinking silently in his heart.

Naturally, seeing the expressions of Li Daozong and Changsun Wuji, it was immediately clear that these two must know something.

Sure enough, before Du Ruhui finished his thoughts, Changsun Wuji stood up, whether it was Li Daozong's favor or His Majesty's thoughts, it was worth a fight for him.

"Your Majesty, I think what King Ren Cheng said makes sense!"

Changsun Wuji's eyes flickered and he said, with a hint of determination in his words.

For a moment, the court fell into a kind of strangeness, and even the minister who had been friends with Changsun Wuji in normal times also had some doubts on his face at this time.

Logically speaking, if there is any topic discussed in the court today, Changsun Wuji must communicate with some ministers.

It's just that this matter is really a bit abrupt, and they also don't know His Majesty's intentions. This matter doesn't seem to have much to do with them.

"Someone once told me that Liu Bang exchanged women and children for a short period of peace. Is it true that Tang Dynasty should do the same?"

Li Shimin didn't seem to care about these ministers above the court, but he spoke quietly, as if he was talking about a rare and ordinary thing.

However, the ministers present could hear the dissatisfaction in the emperor's words. He started fighting at the age of 13. It has been more than ten years now, but the determination in his heart has not diminished.

However, this sentence silenced the ministers present. The reason is very simple, they have already heard the meaning beyond His Majesty's words.

"The old minister is willing to step on the grassland for His Majesty!"

A deep voice sounded, and it was none other than Cheng Yaojin who spoke. At this time, the eyes of the Duke were full of excitement.

Originally, if the matters of the generals were not involved in the court, then the princes who were born as generals generally would not pay attention to them.

But this time was different. As generals, they naturally couldn't bear the woman to exchange for peace for them.

"Veteran is willing to die on the battlefield!"

"The old minister begs for a fight!"

......

After Cheng Yaojin's words, a number of princes who were military generals came forward to speak out, with a fighting spirit in their words.

Obviously, His Majesty's words resonated with them, and the generals value dignity and integrity more.

If it is normal, then these generals naturally don't think there is any problem with the marriage, the reason is very simple, it seems that it has been like this since a long time ago.

This is just following the practice of the ancestors, and it cannot be said that I am wrong from the root cause.

However, following Li Shimin's words, he directly questioned this approach. Of course, Li Shimin also heard it from Shu An.

But all in all, these words now make these generals a little ashamed, after all, this is the person they should be protecting.

It was for this reason that these military generals who did not care about political affairs could not help but stand up one after another, filled with righteous indignation.

"I don't know if Keming Xuanling thinks getting married is feasible?"

Li Shimin didn't say much, instead he turned his attention to Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling and said slowly.

In fact, after Li Shimin made up his mind, he didn't think there was any difficulty in preventing the marriage, but the difficulty was in the later things.

For example, how to communicate with those of different races who ask for marriage is a problem, at least Li Shimin is still not as sure as he imagined.

What if these foreigners become angry from embarrassment? These are all questions that Li Shimin needs to think about.

It can be said that it is easy to refuse, but what to do after the rejection is the problem, so I have to ask these two confidantes these questions.

Facing His Majesty's question, both of them fell into deep thought, but Li Shimin did not interrupt, but waited slowly.

Now that the situation has become clear, for example, Changsun Wuji has expressed his position, which means half of the civil servants. As for the generals, the attitude is equally obvious.

The rest are these two important ministers, as long as they both agree with Li Shimin's proposal, then naturally everything will go well.

At this time, Du Ruhui frowned, because he knew what consequences would result if he refused to propose marriage.

It can be said that this approach is very unwise to exclude these alien races who originally leaned on the Tang Dynasty, but what His Majesty said makes sense.

Even Du Ruhui has an emotion in his heart, when will a woman be needed to protect the peace for them.

Wait, this sentence!

The previous sentence did not come from His Majesty, so who might have said it.

A figure quickly appeared in Du Ruhui's mind, and then a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.

"It's okay to refuse marriage!"

Du Ruhui spoke slowly, and quickly firmed his position in his words. Although he had some disapproval in his heart, he believed in that teacher.

The teacher will never choose to refuse marriage without a reason, there must be his reasons, and it is precisely for this reason that Du Ruhui chose to stand on the side of everyone.

In the end, Fang Xuanling was the only one left who did not express his opinion. At this time, this important minister also fell into a kind of deep thought.

Of course, from Fang Xuanling's standpoint, if he endured this for a while, it would be nice if he could get a foreigner to become a vassal, but this move would inevitably make the relationship between the two stiff.

"Everything is up to His Majesty, and I have no objection!"

In the end, Fang Xuanling spoke slowly, although he wanted to express his worries, but suddenly his mind flashed, and he couldn't help feeling cold behind his back.

After all, if it is rumored by the court, what should we do? Would the world be willing to let women exchange for peace? Don’t men in the Tang Dynasty have blood?

It can be said that this is a proposition, if he opposes the refusal of marriage, if it gets out, how will the world think of him.

For a while Fang Xuanling couldn't help thinking a lot, although he didn't express much meaning, it meant that His Majesty said that he would not stop, and even agreed.

And after both of them expressed their views, Li Shimin showed a smile on his face, as if he was very happy to see the wholeheartedness of the officials.

"Okay, let the auxiliary machine reject the marriage proposals of these envoys!"

Li Shimin's eyes flickered and his voice sounded slowly, with an irresistible order in his words.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

But Changsun Wuji didn't dare to be negligent, he couldn't help but speak out, and at the same time couldn't help being secretly surprised.

He didn't expect that such a seemingly simple matter would turn out like this. Changsun Wuji had hoped that someone would come out to stop it.

Because he naturally couldn't fail to see the disadvantages after the rejection, but he had already chosen to stand by Li Daozong's side, so naturally he had no intention of changing it.

However, what surprised him was that Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling didn't stop him, but then Changsun Wuji was taken aback suddenly, as if he remembered something, there seemed to be no second answer to this question.

Chapter 238 A sensation, ashamed

The content of the discussion at the court meeting once again caused a sensation, the reason is very simple, that is the decision of His Majesty today.

Many scholars in Chang'an were red-faced and were discussing this matter, because this matter seemed to have stirred up waves.

"Your Majesty said it well, now why does Tang Dynasty need to exchange women for peace?"

"Should I wait for the scholar to hide behind the woman and live? It's good to refuse."

......

In the general direction, many scholars and common people support His Majesty's decision, but some people are worried.

After all, this means that Datang has changed its policy, but in the face of current public opinion, even if some people want to say that these issues are not in this era.

In particular, there have been a few lessons learned before, and they have long been overwhelmed by the turbulent crowd, and now they are still bruised and swollen.

"It's reasonable for the ancestors to do this, and it cannot be violated!"

Of course, there are some sour Confucianists who choked out sadly, as if His Majesty made a wrong decision, but these people were ignored.

These people are considered a minority. After all, the era of war has just ended, and there are not many Confucian disciples.

At this moment in the academy, after Shu An heard the news about the court meeting, his expression couldn't help but move slightly. He didn't expect Li Shimin's movements to be so fast.

Even he would think that Li Shimin would hesitate for a few days, after all, if this matter is not handled well, the consequences will have a great impact on Datang.

"Master, Master Du is here!"

At this moment, Laifu's voice rang in Shu An's ears.

"Keming is really sharp!"

Hearing the butler's words, Shu An's complexion showed a strange color and he spoke slowly.

If Du Ruhui came here at this time, it would be impossible if it had nothing to do with this matter.

Even Shu An didn't believe it. Du Ruhui must have guessed something, but Shu An didn't care either.

Because the decision-making power is in Li Shimin's hands, not in his hands, so strictly speaking, this matter has little to do with him.

"Let people come in!"

After thinking about it for a second, Shu An said slowly, although he knew the reason for this disciple's visit, he still did not refuse to meet.

In just a short while, Du Ruhui's figure appeared in his sight.

"Meet the teacher!"

Du Ruhui's voice sounded, one day will be a teacher and a lifelong father, this sentence can be regarded as vividly reflected in this era.

"I don't know why Keming came to see me?"

A smile appeared on Shu An's face and he said, maybe because of future generations, he doesn't like relying on the old to sell the old.

But because of this, there are quite a few miraculous effects. For example, although teachers and students often talk with him less serious, they are also a little closer.

"Teacher, I don't know if His Majesty's refusal to marry has anything to do with you?"

Du Ruhui didn't hesitate, and directly asked the question he wanted, because he knew that playing tricks on this teacher was just superfluous.

Instead, it's better to ask directly. In this case, it will save a lot of trouble.

"Didn't Keming already have the answer in his heart?"

Facing Du Ruhui's question, the smile on Shu An's face remained unchanged and he continued to speak.

Du Ruhui was taken aback for a moment, but then there was a wry smile on his face, it seemed that his teacher had already acquiesced to this question.

In fact, Du Ruhui naturally knew it in his heart, but it was only because of his friends that he came to the academy.

Although Fang Xuanling in the court didn't have much objection, but Du Ruhui knew that this friend was in favor of the marriage.

It's just that he was under pressure, so he didn't choose to object. Even if Du Ruhui was reluctant, he would not refuse.

Because this matter has a lot to do with reputation, even Du Ruhui couldn't object after he figured it out.

No one in the world can escape the word fame and fortune. Even Du Ruhui didn't care about his fame before he was alive, but he didn't want to be poked in the back.

After all, the number of women who are robbed in the border area every year is unknown, and this matter has a lot to do with these people.

It was for this reason that Du Ruhui came to the academy, wanting to know why his teacher was like this.

Then relay the words of these teachers to his friends, this is the purpose of Du Ruhui's trip.

"Can the teacher tell the students what benefits there are?"

Du Ruhui's voice continued to sound, obviously it was a question that had been prepared long ago.

"Some things have to be done by someone, right? Why didn't these women of different races enter Chang'an?"

With the same expression on his face, Shu An said slowly, it would be good if the marriage could end in the Tang Dynasty.

On top of this, he admired the later dynasty that did not get along with each other and did not pay compensation.

Facing his teacher's words, Du Ruhui couldn't help but fell into his thoughts, and then his expression turned a little ashamed.

"Disciple is ashamed!"

Du Ruhui said, because he found that his eyes were limited to the current Tang Dynasty, and his teacher had already set his sights on future generations.

Marriage can be said to be a shame, how could Du Ruhui not know about it, but now the marriage has helped Datang a lot, which made him a little lost in judgment.

This is the reason for Du Ruhui's inner guilt. If he can solve it among himself and his generation, then it will indeed be a merit.

"There is nothing to be ashamed of. After all, your heart is still for Datang in this matter."

Seeing that this disciple seemed a little depressed, Shu An couldn't help but couldn't bear to speak out.
