After finishing speaking, Zhao Chen said again: "In addition, go to the newspaper group to publish an advertisement, whether it is "Chang'an Daily", "Chang'an Evening News", and Chang'an Magazine, etc., all must be published, that is, tomorrow At ten o'clock in the morning, there will be big news in the Chengnan River area."
Zhao Zhong responded and immediately went to do it.
And Zhao Chen folded the fan and felt as if he had a winning ticket.
¡¡
The next day, morning.
When they saw Zhao Chen's carriage slowly driving in, the officials were a little surprised and confused.
"Hey, why did Mr. Zhao come to attend the morning court today?"
Cheng Yaojin was quite happy. He returned to Chang'an with His Majesty and others yesterday. Before he had time to go to the Zhao Manor, he didn't expect that Mr. Zhao would come to attend the morning court today.
This is strange.
The other ministers were also talking about it.
"The prince-in-law came to attend the morning court today. Why?"
¡°I don¡¯t know, whenever he appears in the morning, I feel a little panicked inside.¡±
¡°When I see his carriage now, I feel my heart beating unsatisfactorily.¡±
Some ministers whispered that there was nothing they could do about it. Although Zhao Chen had not participated in the morning court before, the name of the person and the shadow of the tree made them want to confront Zhao Chen head-on. It would be simply courting death.
??Another thing, the prince had been in charge of the country for so many days before, and the heavy rain in Luoyang never appeared in the court. With so many people impeaching him, he never showed up in the court. But today, when His Majesty came back, he came to court.
?Could it be that you want to retaliate?
The ministers who had impeached Zhao Chen before became even more uneasy.
Soon, the palace door opened, and all the courtiers entered the hall. Zhao Chen also yawned, got off the carriage, and slowly entered the hall.
Li Shimin stepped onto the throne, glanced behind the ministers' queue, and saw a familiar figure as expected.
As the ministers greeted each other, Li Shimin went straight to the point without any nonsense.
"I learned that there was a heavy rain in Luoyang. What is the whole story? The memorial to impeach the prince-in-law has been sent to me. Some people say that the prince-son-in-law falsely conveyed the imperial edict?"
Li Shimin asked, but the ministers were silent and no one made a sound.
No one expected that at the beginning of the morning, it would be His Majesty who was the one to make the attack!
"Prince, please tell me."
Li Chengqian came out and said: "Father, about ten days before the heavy rain in Luoyang on July 1, Mr. Zhao came to see my son and told him that there was a heavy rain in Luoyang and that the people needed to be relocated in advance. However, my son hesitated at that time and did not issue an imperial edict. Later, Mr. Zhao bypassed Zhongshu Province on his own and issued an imperial edict from Menxia Province, and at the same time sent Tang Jun to Luoyang to evacuate the people."
"During this period, the ministers were dissatisfied and misunderstood Mr. Zhao. In addition, Tang Jun's methods of relocating people in Luoyang were too strong, so there were many people impeached."
After saying this, Li Chengqian felt ashamed and said: "Father, I did not do a good job here. I also thought that the heavy rain in Luoyang might be a possibility, so I did not issue the imperial edict in time."
After Li Chengqian finished speaking, Li Shimin looked at the other courtiers again, his eyes swept over those courtiers unhurriedly, giving them a look as if they were being stared at by a tiger.
"My dear friends, do you have anything else you would like to add?"
Anything else you want to add?
The prince has already explained the matter so clearly, what else can he add?
Some ministers reacted quickly and suddenly came out of the queue and lay on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty. I should not have listened to the slanderous words of the Luoyang scholars. I misidentified Mr. Zhao, so I impeached Mr. Zhao. I am guilty."
"Your Majesty, I am also guilty."
Those ministers were so frightened that they knelt down and confessed.
"Okay, everyone, get up."
Li Shimin's voice dropped, and those ministers were even more trembling, fearing that Li Shimin would be unhappy and demote them directly.
Li Shimin said calmly: "The prince has concerns, I naturally understand, but this matter, once there is a heavy rain in Luoyang, the people of Luoyang will be killed or injured. To inherit the Qian Dynasty, the country must be governed by benevolence, and the people of the world must be cherished. The people are like water. , The imperial court is like a boat, water can carry it but also capsize it. If Mr. Zhao had not acted promptly and decisively this time, it would have been a tragedy."
Li Chengqian lowered his head.
"Even if you issued the imperial edict and there was no heavy rain, I don't think the problem is big. I promise you to remember better next time."
"Yes, I have remembered it."
After the reprimand, Li Shimin felt that Cai was quiteSatisfied, he immediately asked: "How is the disaster relief going?"
Several ministers looked at me and I looked at you. It was Li Chengqian who came out again: "Father, the disaster relief team, according to the imperial edict drafted by Mr. Zhao at that time, people from the Ministry of Emergency Management, the Ministry of Transportation, and the Zhechong Prefecture have been mobilized to Luoyang for disaster relief. According to the intelligence information transmitted yesterday, this group of personnel has arrived in Luoyang and has begun disaster relief. The food transferred from the granary has also been delivered. The disaster relief will officially begin after the heavy rain stops."
Li Shimin sighed: "Mr. Zhao did a job that could only be done by hundreds of ministers?"
Those ministers lowered their heads like quails and said nothing. No one would jump out without opening their eyes.
After Li Shimin glanced around, he said, "Is Mr. Zhao here?"
No one answered.
A minister trembled and said: "Your Majesty, the consort is sleeping."
"Oh, it's normal. It's morning today. Let's wait until Mr. Zhao wakes up."
Those ministers looked at each other, and countless people looked at the pillar behind, where Zhao Chen was still in a daze.
¡°Well, all the officials of the Tang Dynasty will wait until Zhao Chen wakes up first.
¡°Perhaps throughout history, throughout the early dynasty events, there has never been such an awesome minister.
After half an hour, Zhao Chen yawned and finally woke up.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the courtiers at the front, back and left looking at him with peaceful expressions on their faces.
"Consort, are you awake?"
"Consort, did you sleep well?"
Seeing these courtiers whispering softly, Zhao Chen looked confused: "There is something wrong with you, why don't you go to the court early to watch me sleep?"
He patted his clothes and stood up, only to find that all the courtiers in the hall were quiet.
"Mr. Zhao, are you awake?"
Zhao Chen coughed and came out: "Your Majesty, good morning."
All ministers: ""
It seems that the Consort is really trusted by His Majesty.
Li Shimin smiled: "Mr. Zhao, you did a good job during the heavy rain in Luoyang. I will give you half a tiger talisman. From now on, you can mobilize some Zhechong Mansion soldiers on your own."
Once this reward is released, it basically means that Zhao Chen even has military power.
The faces of those ministers changed wildly: "Your Majesty, no! The tiger talisman is a big deal. The army only recognizes the tiger talisman and not the generals. Now the prince-in-law is already the minister of the Ministry of Revolution, with a high and powerful position. If he adds the tiger talisman, how can he do it?"
Even Changsun Wuji also came out: "Your Majesty, think twice about this matter. I do not doubt the prince-in-law. However, the impact of this matter is too great. It may set a precedent in history. All civil and military power will be concentrated in the hands of one person. Your Majesty, This is not possible, Your Majesty can give other rewards." (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
