"Your Majesty, what is your academy? It is your academy! You are the dean of the academy! I am just a gardener who uses the academy to realize his dreams. It is your majesty who really uses it and benefits from it. It will also be the Tang Dynasty! When these young seedlings of Yanhuang Academy grow up vigorously, they will definitely hold up a vast blue sky for the Tang Dynasty!"
In the Dali Temple cell, Li Zexuan cupped his hands at Li Er.
There is no other way. Born in such a feudal society, if you want to develop the academy well, you must hold on to the royal family. Li Zexuan has never thought of rebelling against Li Er. This boss is too strong and he can't move! Whoever refuses to accept it will have his liver removed. Anyway, he won’t remove his liver!
By the way, even in modern times, if you want to live well, don't you need to hug someone else's lap
Li Er's eyes were deep, and he was quite satisfied with Li Zexuan's statement. Although what happened a few days ago made him very angry, Li Zexuan still knew how to advance and retreat most of the time!
"If you have always been so sensible, how could you end up in prison? If I hadn't thought that the Queen and Chang Le were interceding for you, I would have killed you long ago!"
Li Er said with hatred.
Li Zexuan said with a smile: "Your Majesty's magnanimity, wisdom and prowess are naturally beyond the reach of ordinary people. I believe that under the leadership of your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty will definitely be able to catch up with the era of Emperor Qin and Han Dynasty!"
When it's time to flatter, you have to flatter him. Since Lao Li is willing to come to the prison, it means that he has no intention of killing him. He is just here to find a step down. For the sake of his family, Li Zexuan is willing to give Lao Li this step! Besides, he is not just bragging randomly. The Zhenguan era in history will indeed catch up with the Qin Emperor and Han Wu era. Now that he is joining as a time traveler, the Tang Dynasty will only be stronger!
"Ha! When did you learn how to flatter the emperor? If Wei Xuancheng were here, he would definitely impeach you for the crime of flattering the emperor!"
Li Er pointed at Li Zexuan and said angrily.
But the slight smile on his lips showed that he was not averse to this kind of flattery!
"You have an outstanding intelligence. There are few people in the entire Tang Dynasty who can compare with you! But why are you so confused this time? I have repeatedly warned you not to touch the Cui family, but it's good for you. You gave me such a big blow overnight. Lou Zi! Can’t you bear it for a year or two?”
After rambling for a long time, Li Er finally got to the point, and Li Zexuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Anyone who has had a quarrel between friends knows that under normal circumstances, if the other party ignores you after the quarrel or keeps talking about other things, it means that the other party is really angry; but if the other party is willing to talk to you If you talk about the source of the quarrel and conflict at that time, it means that the other party wants to resolve the conflict and eliminate differences with you!
"Your Majesty, you care about the world, so of course you need to consider the overall situation, but I don't need to think so much every time. The Cui family has no conscience and does not care about human life. Now that I have seen it, I can't bear it anymore. Otherwise, I would have dreamed of it. Dreaming about the cries of the innocent souls in hell! I know that I am a little out of my mind, but if I am given another chance to choose, I will still do it! Even if I am punished by His Majesty, I will never regret it!"
Li Er was silent for no reason. He suddenly remembered what Empress Changsun said to him last night:
"Your Majesty! The Marquis of Yong'an did have some motives for inciting public anger and destroying the Cui family this time, but I don't think that with the wisdom of the Marquis of Yong'an, he would not have thought of the serious consequences of this method! But he did it in the end, which shows that he dares to love Dare to hate, hate evil as much as hatred, not the kind of ambitious and scheming people! Therefore, I think that your majesty's worries are completely unnecessary. The Tang Dynasty needs heroes with a sense of justice like Yong'an Hou, and your majesty also needs Yong'an Hou. Loyal ministers and capable ministers!
Moreover, Marquis Yong'an took the initiative to tie himself up in Dali Temple afterwards, even more for the sake of His Majesty! Because he knew that with his current reputation among the people, if His Majesty were to punish him, His Majesty's reputation among the people would definitely be affected! As such a direct minister, I don’t want your Majesty to make wrong decisions because of some unfounded suspicions! I beg your Majesty to think twice! "
After a long silence, Li Er finally came back from his thoughts. He breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he felt a sense of inexplicable loss. He looked at Li Zexuan with complicated eyes and said:
"The Cui family is indeed hateful, but your boy's crime of inciting people to riot is equally unforgivable! If everyone in the court hadn't tried their best to wipe your boy's ass, there would have been chaos in Chang'an City in the past few days! I hope you can reflect on it in time in the past few days. , I will punish you to stay at home and think about it for two months, and by the way, submit a letter of apology within three days!"
When he heard the innocuous punishment of "be shut up and think about it for two months", Li Zexuan couldn't help but feel happy, secretly thinking that Lao Li was finally willing to expose this article. However, when he heard the "repudiation" that followed, Li Zexuan's eyes rolled. His eyes were widened, and his forehead was covered with black lines.
"What's wrong? Don't want to write? That's okay..."
Li Er glared at Li Zexuan and was about to say something, but Li Zexuan quickly took over the topic and said: "No, no, no! Your Majesty! I am willing to write! I am very willing to write!"
In his heart, this guy was slandering old Mr. Li to avenge himself for having Li Zexuan ask his son Li Tai to write a self-criticism!
"snort!"
Li Er snorted and then gave up!
After a pause, he seemed to sigh with deep meaning: "If you have a way to win the world, if you win its people, you will win the world. If you have a way of winning the people, if you win their hearts, you will win the people. The Cui family collapsed overnight. , it can be regarded as a wake-up call for me!"
Li Zexuan nodded secretly. Li Er is indeed Li Er. After realizing the power of the people, his first thought was not to suppress them, but to win their hearts and use them for himself! What a great spirit!
"Your Majesty, as the saying goes, a king is a boat; a common man is water. Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it! The Cui family believed that the people were weak and powerless, so they oppressed the people wantonly and harmed their subordinates. They had no respect for the people. His heart will eventually die in the sea of people's lust! Your Majesty is diligent and caring for the people, wise and mighty, and will be supported by all the people. The great ship of the Tang Dynasty will also be carried by the people and never sink!"
Li Zexuan cupped his hands and spoke with emotion.
If someone unintentionally steals a famous quote from someone later, all he can do is say sorry!
Li Er's eyes lit up and he said: "Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it! Haha! Well said! Well said! After listening to this wonderful sentence, my trip today is finally worthwhile!"
Li Er, who had a clear mind, laughed and walked out of the prison door. The power of the people united is indeed great, but as long as the people are turned into water that can carry boats, what is there to fear
