With that said, Chen Ying began to devour it.

Li Jiancheng smiled awkwardly, pointed to the second dish and said, "This dish is called stuffed skin. It's not a famous and expensive dish of rich and noble people. It's just a unique recipe. I'm afraid it's rarely eaten in Kanto and Hebei. This is also Guanzhong. People's favorite food."

Wei Zheng took a sip with his chopsticks, frowned and said, "The garlic juice is too thick, if you add more vinegar, it would be good."

Fang Xuanling didn't move his chopsticks at all.

The corners of Li Jiancheng's mouth twitched, forcing a smile.

Zheng Guanyin tried her best to hold back her laughter, and carefully looked at Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling.

Li Jiancheng took a deep breath and said, "Xuanling, try this wine again, Huanggui thick wine, which originated from the mash of the Zhou Dynasty..."

Fang Xuanling picked up the wine and quickly interrupted Li Jiancheng.

Fang Xuanling said: "This wine official has drunk it, it is not as mellow as the Qingzhou in Qizhou."

Li Jiancheng frowned.

Zheng Guanyin hurriedly pulled Li Jiancheng's sleeve under the table.

Li Jiancheng forcibly suppressed his displeasure, took a deep breath, smiled again and said, "Jiancheng plans to worship Xuanling as a political advisor, and ask Xuanling to assist Jiancheng to create a peaceful and prosperous world for the Tang Dynasty in Chang'an."

Fang Xuanling said unmoved: "Your Majesty, I have three requests. I wonder if Your Majesty can agree to them?"

Li Jiancheng looked at Chen Ying and said, "But if you ask, Jiancheng will not refuse."

Fang Xuanling took a sip of Huanggui thick wine, frowned and lowered his eyebrows, cleared his throat, sat upright and said, "The first thing is that officials and titles are state treasures and should not be granted indiscriminately. , It has a lot to do with the world, and you can't be selected casually. You must be cautious when you are appointed as an official..."

Li Jiancheng smacked his lips, looking helpless.

Fang Xuanling went on to say: "The second thing is to take advice, listen to one side and you will be dark, and if you listen to both sides, you will be clear. If you don't listen to different opinions, no matter how good the emperor will be, sooner or later he will go bad; The power should be returned to the courts, as a monarch, one should not rashly interfere with the exercise of power by his subordinates, otherwise, he would distrust his subordinates and be irresponsible for state affairs."

After Fang Xuanling finished speaking, he picked up his chopsticks and began to taste the dishes one by one.

Li Jiancheng muttered, but couldn't find the words for a while.

With a smile on his face, Zheng Guanyin looked at Li Jiancheng and Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng, who were engrossed in the table.

Wei Zheng waved to the maid beside him, "Bring some vinegar!"

Li Jiancheng said embarrassingly: "I'm not feeling well, so go and make it easier for me first!"

With that said, Li Jiancheng flung his sleeves and walked away.

Chen Ying hurriedly followed.

Walking outside the main hall, Li Jiancheng was still full of resentment. He watched Chen Ying chasing him, and immediately vented and said: "Chen Ying, you have seen it all today. I am sincere and sincere. Fang Xuanling But he doesn't care, pointing east and west, I think this Fang Xuanling still hates me... and remember Erlang!"

Li Jiancheng sighed depressingly: "The enmity between me and Fang Xuanling seems to be irresolvable, he is not willing to do things for me wholeheartedly at all."

Chen Ying said with a relaxed face: "I think Fang Xuanling's behavior today is reasonable. He really didn't pay attention to the appointment of your prime minister, and he didn't pay attention to you. He was very grateful, but the famous people in Qizhou really deserve it." Yes, I gave you three useful suggestions. Are these three suggestions important?"

Li Jiancheng frowned and said, "These three suggestions are naturally excellent, but...couldn't the position of Prime Minister not express...the importance and respect I have for him?"

Chen Ying smiled lightly and said: "Your Majesty, you are also familiar with the classics and history. You should know the advantages and disadvantages of being kingly and domineering. Back then, Qin Shihuang was domineering and died young. Great Qin II died, and Sui Wendi was domineering. After the death of the world, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was domineering, and the scourge of witchcraft in his later years killed more than 10 people in Chang'an. The sixteen soldiers of the Han Dynasty were either killed or belittled.

Li Jiancheng looked at Chen Ying in a daze and said, "You also think that Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng are right?"

Chen Ying nodded and said: "The Emperor is the Son of Heaven, but he is also a human being. Human energy is limited. Your Majesty must let go when it is time to let go!"

Li Jiancheng looked at Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling in the window in a daze.

Chapter 36 Daddy, what are you doing lying on top of your mother?

Chapter 36 Daddy, what are you doing lying on top of your mother?

Li Xiuning pulled back the quilt covering Chen Ying's head.

Chen Ying said displeased: "What?"

Li Xiuning pushed Chen Ying's shoulder and said, "You repeat it again."

"I've said it three times!" Chen Ying said angrily, "Choose scholars, practice the king's way, accept advice, often reflect on yourself, respect the power of the prime minister, and rule the world together with the scholar-bureaucrats."

Li Xiuning asked again: "What did the other people in the court say?"

Chen Ying curled his lips and said, "It's completely silent."

After a pause, Chen Ying said again: "Yes, Chen Xiangguo (Chen Shuda) and Feng Xiangguo vomited blood when they were parting from the court!"

Li Xiuning stayed silent for a while, sitting on the bed without moving.

Chen Ying gently pushed Li Xiuning's arm and said, "San Niang, San Niang..."

Li Xiuning woke up from the fugue, and sighed repeatedly: "Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling, why didn't the Supreme Emperor use them back then?"

Chen Ying couldn't help laughing.

In terms of employing people, Li Yuan is really far behind his two sons. Li Jiancheng's subordinates are Wenwu Wanggui, Wei Zheng, Li Yuan, Wuyou Xue Wanche, Feng Li, Li Anyan, and Li Shiji.As for Li Shimin's subordinates, they are actually not bad. Wen has Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and eighteen bachelors, and Wu has Cheng Zhijie, Qin Qiong, Duan Zhixuan, Zhang Liang, Zhang Gongjin and so on.

But looking back at Li Yuan's subordinates, the six prime ministers, Pei Ji, Yu Wenhuaji, Feng Lun, Chen Shuda, Yang Gongren, Xiao Shiwen, Wuyou Liu Hongji, Changsun Shunde, Zheng Rentai, Qu Tutong, etc., the key lies in the Xuanwu Gate. When times change, none of them can stand up.

In fact, the biggest key factor for Li Shimin's success in history was the defection of heroes under Li Yuan's command. Without Liu Hongji's betrayal, Li Shimin would not have been able to enter the Taiji Palace with Chang He alone, let alone Zuo Xiaowei. General Sun Shunde and Liu Zhenghui, among the 24 heroes in Lingyan Pavilion, there are six people who are not Li Shimin's direct descendants. Except for Wei Zheng, they are all supporters, including Xiao Shiwen, Liu Zhenghui, Liu Hongji, Yin Kaishan, Qu Tutong and The elder Sun Shunde, they are the key factors to help Li Shimin succeed.

Chen Ying pretended to be surprised and said, "Is this Fang Xuanling really amazing?"

Li Xiuning was rather dispirited, leaned limply on the reclining couch, slowly moved her head into Chen Ying's arms, and muttered to herself: "Wei Xuancheng, Fang Xuanling and the others... are national scholars! Zhuge Liang is a scholar of Shu, Jiang Taigong is a scholar of Zhou, Shang Yang is a scholar of Qin... This Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling are our scholars of Tang..."

Chen Ying turned to look at Li Xiuning and said, "You missed someone!"

Li Xiuning asked curiously, "Who?"

"And me!" Chen Ying pointed to his face and said, "I, Chen Ying, are also a national scholar of the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Xiuning sat up abruptly, and said with a smile of "I knew it earlier", "Yes, there is also Chen Lang!"

Chen Ying stretched out his hand to grab Li Xiuning's indescribable part, and said with a cheap smile: "Hello, you are not sincere!"

Li Xiuning's creaking nest was tickled by Chen Ying. She twisted her body and begged for mercy: "Chen Lang, please forgive me...how can I!"

Chen Ying naturally ignored Li Xiuning's begging for mercy, he tried his best, and after a while, Li Xiuning was scratched by Chen Ying until she gasped.

As someone who has been there, Li Xiuning naturally knows what Chen Ying wants to do, and Li Xiuning naturally caters to Chen Ying.

At this moment, suddenly, a childish voice sounded: "Father...why are you lying on top of mother!"

Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, Chen Qian ran into the bedroom, staring at Chen Ying and Li Xiuning with wide eyes.
