Datang traitor
Chapter 40
"In the struggle for imperial power, there is no good or evil. There is only one simple truth: the winner is the king. If you don't kill the opponent at this time, the opponent will kill you. I think that judging the merits and demerits of an emperor should be based on his country How many practical things the people have done. The one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, and the emperor who is supported by the people is the best emperor with justification and integrity."
In fact, what Li Shimin cares about the most is that he rebelled against the system of heir succession and killed his brother to seize the throne.He has always been afraid that his name as the emperor will not be justified, and he will be ridiculed by the people of the world.There are many courtiers in the court, such as Wei Zheng, who was once a subordinate of his elder brother Li Jiancheng.Although these people are used by him now, Li Shimin still feels that in the hearts of these people, his appearance is not good.
So in normal times, Li Shimin always represses such things in his heart and taboos to mention them.He is afraid that showing weakness will become the Achilles heel for others to attack him in the future.
Now Qin Yuan's words completely touched Li Shimin's heart, which made Li Shimin suddenly enlightened and relieved for the most part.
The change of Xuanwumen was a choice he had to make. Before that, his elder brother had repeatedly tried to put him to death.In the choice between death and death, he must of course choose to live by himself, and to be the most powerful emperor.
Although Li Shimin has always felt guilty about killing his elder brother's family.Even if this choice can be repeated, he still has no other better options and still has to make the same choice.Qin Yuan is right, this is the inevitable result of the struggle for imperial power, there is no need for him to continue to dwell on this matter in his heart.
Li Shimin nodded repeatedly, acquiescing that Qin Yuan was right.
Changsun Wuji and Qin Qiong glanced at each other, both of them felt a little dissatisfied.They are the ones who have lived and died with the saint and participated in the Xuanwu Gate Change. How come in the end, it was this newcomer who had a heart-to-heart relationship with the saint.The most irritating thing is that Qin Yuan said these words. They probably expressed the same meaning before, but the saint didn't listen to it at that time.
There are really only two words to explain this situation: the saint is eccentric, and he is too eccentric to Qin Yuan!
In fact, what the two of them didn't know was that to Li Shimin, Qin Yuan was like a third party who had never been involved in the incident or taken a stand.Therefore, the attitude he expresses, in Li Shimin's view, is more objective and easier to listen to.
"Someone deliberately used the fake Qin Qiong's case as an introduction to let us discover the writing on it. Such a major event must not be hidden from His Majesty, so the ultimate purpose of these two letters is to stimulate His Majesty." Qin Yuan explained.
Since this matter was aimed at him, Li Shimin felt that he should not worry about suppressing himself because of this matter.Li Shimin immediately ordered Qin Yuan to supervise the case. He wanted to know who was behind this letter.How could these handwriting look like it was entirely written by Li Jiancheng?
After Qin Yuan took the order, he thought that Li Shimin had nothing to say and was about to resign, but was suddenly stopped by Li Shimin.
Li Shimin asked Qin Yuan's neighbor what the newly opened dim sum shop sells.
Qin Yuan: "It seems to be quite casual. I just make whatever is new in the market. Today I heard that I will make bitter gourd and honey cake."
Li Shimin asked Qin Yuan what the bitter gourd honey cake was.Qin Yuan immediately said that he could get some for Li Shimin to taste.
Changsun Wuji hurriedly said: "Why bother Qin Canjun with such a trivial matter, Qin Canjun can just investigate the case, I will send someone to buy some and send it to the palace later."
Changsun Wuji learned the lesson from last time, and specially emphasized that he would be low-key and unassuming.
Qin Yuan doesn't take credit for it, since Changsun Wuji is willing to buy it, let him buy it.He is richer, so he not only saves money, but also earns some money.
After leaving the Liangyi Hall, Qin Yuan was held back by Qin Qiong.Qin Qiong asked him in a low voice what ecstasy soup he had poured into the saint.
"The sage is wise, how can he be confused by the ecstasy soup." Qin Yuan's ingenious answer made Qin Qiong unable to continue.He can't say that saints are just confused and easily confused by the ecstasy soup.
Qin Qiong asked Qin Yuan why he told the saint about his drinking of rat blood.
"Heaven and earth conscience, I really helped you with this matter, you have to thank me well. If you don't believe me, go ask grandson what the saint's expression was when you talked about those things. If I didn't mention this matter, The saint is still in a bad mood, you might be scolded now." Qin Yuan scolded Qin Qiong for being ungrateful and blamed him.
Qin Qiong turned her eyes to glance at Changsun Wuji, seeing that Changsun Wuji did not refute Qin Yuan's intention, which meant that he acquiesced to Qin Yuan's statement.Although Qin Qiong was careless, he felt that he was quite good at observing words and expressions, but it was really difficult to guess the mind of the saint. Sometimes the saint was in a bad mood and didn't show it on the surface. He had suffered because of this before.
Qin Qiong saluted and thanked Qin Yuan, feeling that he saved herself again.
"But I really didn't see your mouth, it's really... tsk tsk!" Qin Qiong couldn't help laughing when he thought of how Qin Yuan gleefully flattered the saint before.
Qin Qiong used to be very contemptuous of the kind of people who know how to flatter others without actually doing anything.But now I don't know why, seeing Qin Yuan do such a thing, he actually finds it quite attractive.Probably because Qin Yuan is his brother.
Qin Qiong patted Qin Yuan on the shoulder, telling him to call out to his big brother if he had something to do in the future, as long as he could do it, he would do it.
Qin Yuan thanked Qin Qiong with a smile, and after saying goodbye to him, Qin Yuan found that Changsun Wuji was still following him.
"Is there something wrong with grandson?" Qin Yuan asked.
"Snacks." Changsun Wuji said.
Qin Yuan came to his senses, told Changsun Wuji the address of the dim sum shop, and then said goodbye to Changsun Wuji.
Qin Yuan rode his horse and ran all the way to the dim sum shop. He wanted to inform Gu Qingqing in advance, but as he was walking, he found that Zhangsun Wuji's carriage was following behind him.
Qin Yuan rode to Changsun Wuji's carriage, "Where is Mr. Changsun going? It seems that we are going the same way."
"Gu's dim sum shop." Changsun Wuji answered Qin Yuan in a low voice through the window screen.
Qin Yuan laughed, "If the eldest grandson wants to buy some snacks, he can just send his subordinates down. How can he go there in person?"
The carriage continued on and arrived at the place not far away.
"Doing things for a saint, how can you be negligent." Changsun Wuji got out of the car before answering Qin Yuan's question just now.
Seeing Qin Yuan coming, Gu Qingqing wanted to greet him happily, but then found a man who came with Qin Yuan.Very rich and handsome, with an imposing manner.Gu Qingqing committed her old habit again. When she saw a high-ranking official, she became so timid and weak-legged that she couldn't speak.
Zhou Xiaolu's attitude was as usual, "Brother Qin is here, please sit down. Who is this?"
Qin Yuan looked at Changsun Wuji hesitantly, wondering if he should introduce his identity.
"Changsun Wuji," Changsun Wuji said his name directly, and then said to Zhou Xiaolu, "Weigh ten catties of this snack."
After Gu Qingqing heard Changsun Wuji's name, he realized what a big man the other party was, and his whole body turned into a log, so frightened that he couldn't move.
Qin Yuan also winks at Zhou Xiaolu and Gu Qingqing, implying that they charge more money.
"Two pennies a penny, about five or six pennies a catty." Although Zhou Xiaolu was shocked by the identity of the eldest grandson Wuji, she still behaved normally.She honestly explained the normal price of dim sum.
Changsun Wuji's subordinates put the consistent money on the table and took away ten catties of dim sum, and naturally they would not want the extra money.
Zhou Xiaolu hurriedly thanked Changsun Wuji for the reward.
Changsun Wuji cast a sideways glance at Qin Yuan: "You have more neighbors than you."
Qin Yuan didn't say a word, and after seeing off his grandson Wuji, he asked Zhou Xiaolu why he didn't raise the price.
Zhou Xiaolu: "If you want to do a good job in the long run, you must be honest and treat everyone equally, and you should not set prices on the ground."
Qin Yuan immediately praised Zhou Xiaolu for her good words.
"However, it's easier for people to earn money if they are smarter. For people like Changsun Wuji, there is a special case. It is right to charge more money. He is not a scoundrel. Even if he wants to find someone to settle accounts, he will find me. Don't be afraid .”
Gu Qingqing just came back to her senses, and excitedly shouted that Tangtang Guojiu actually came to her shop to buy some snacks.She nodded immediately, echoing Qin Yuan's words, and also made Zhou Xiaolu raise the price when it should.
Zhou Xiaolu looked back at the two of them in disapproval, then turned around and continued working.
Qin Yuan laughed, and deliberately asked Gu Qingqing how he "knows a hero with his eyes" and picked up someone like Zhou Xiaolu.
Gu Qingqing recalled the passing of Zhou Xiaolu who she met on the street at that time, and Qin Yuan observed Zhou Xiaolu's expression the whole time.I haven't seen any flaws from her for the time being, but Qin Yuan is very concerned about the unusual indifference displayed by this girl.
Qin Yuan asked for a piece of bitter gourd and honey cake to eat. As expected, the bitterness was not much, but just faint, basically covered by the sweetness of honey.
"Brother Qin entered the palace again today?" Gu Qingqing poured Qin Yuan a bowl of water.
"Well, I encountered a troublesome matter." Qin Yuan said.
Gu Qingqing hurriedly asked Qin Yuan what the trouble was, and Zhou Xiaolu also looked at Qin Yuan at this time.
"Big things, of course we can't talk about it." After Qin Yuan asked for two catties of snacks, he asked them to keep busy, and he took the snacks back to Yongzhou Mansion.
After Qin Yuan arrived at Yongzhou Mansion, he gave some snacks to Wen Yanbo.
Wen Yanbo hurriedly asked how the face-to-face was going, "Just now Duke Wei sent someone to ask!"
Qin Yuan handed the letter back to Wen Yanbo, and asked him to show the letter to Wei Zheng, and Wei Zheng would naturally understand.
"One more thing." Seeing that Qin Yuan was about to leave, Wen Yanbo hurriedly stopped him, "There is a big man in the mansion who is here and he wants to look for you. Tell me the truth, how do you feel about Yuchi Wan'er?"
"Why do you ask this question suddenly? I have nothing to do with Yuchi Wan'er." Qin Yuan was puzzled, and asked Wen Yanbo to directly talk about the life of the visitor without hiding it.
"Mr. Yuchi! After he entered the mansion, no one wanted to talk to him. He just asked to see you."
Wen Yanbo grabbed Qin Yuan's arm very worriedly, and solemnly reminded Qin Yuan that among the courtiers, the most bad-tempered one was actually not Changsun Wuji, but Yuchi Jingde.Changsun Wuji is courteous and domineering, he will accuse the other party of serious crimes when he runs on people; Yuchi Jingde is violent and domineering without restraint, he will throw anger at the slightest anger, do not ask Right or wrong, hit people directly.
"The last time the sage invited all the ministers to have a drink, and when he came back after his ceremony, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment accidentally took his seat because he was chatting with someone, so he took advantage of his military merits and humiliated him on the spot. He was not worthy of this seat. In front of him, he grabbed someone by the collar, if everyone stopped him, he would definitely hit him. Afterwards, he was reprimanded by the saint, but he still did not change his old temper."
