Wait until you return to the palace.

Li Er finally gritted his teeth and said to himself: "Isn't it just acting? Humph, that boy Chen Chu doesn't trust me and taught me to act several times. It's outrageous. I just want him to see, I am definitely not a person who can't act..."

He called his close servant Gao Chen over.

Li Er ordered: "Gao Chen, immediately arrange the Hundred Cavalry to find out the details of Chen Chu. I want to check all his eighteen generations of ancestors. If you don't know, go and ask Cheng Shu silently."

Gao Chen was a little confused.

Chen Chu?

There is no such person in the court!

There seems to be no thief among the people's name.

But he didn't dare to ask more.

I hurriedly agreed.

Then he heard Li Er say, "By the way, I will have a rest tomorrow. I will invite a banquet for the third-rank or above ministers outside Wanchun Hall."

Your Majesty wants to treat you?

Gao Chen was stunned again.

As far as he knows, in recent days, His Majesty and the civil and military ministers have not had a very harmonious relationship because of the internal treasury.

Especially Wei Zheng and others, they had a quarrel in the morning court many times.

Now, you want to treat me?

...

early morning.

Outside the palace gate.

A group of ministers gathered together.

At the forefront are the pillars in the court, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wang Gui, Hou Junji, Wei Zheng, Li Jing, etc.

Wang Gui looked at Dai Zhou, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and asked, "Mr. Dai, has the Ministry of Civil Affairs allocated money to the inner treasury privately?"

Dai Zhou hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Wang, you can't talk nonsense. The Ministry of Civil Affairs is the Ministry of Civil Affairs of the Secretariat. Without the consent of the three provinces, how dare I allocate money to the inner treasury..."

Next to him, Wei Zheng snorted coldly.

He firmly believed that His Majesty would allocate money from the Ministry of Civil Affairs at this time, which would be a big taboo.

Changsun Wuji said in confusion: "Your Majesty has always said that the inner treasury is short of money and is already desperate. Why do you have to host a banquet for ministers above the third rank today? Isn't this an increase in the inner treasury's expense?"

Upon hearing this, everyone became confused.

Suddenly, Wang Gui clapped his hands and said loudly: "I understand..."

Dai Zhou asked curiously: "Mr. Wang, what do you know?"

Wang Gui said slowly: "Youdao is that he has short hands and weak mouths. His Majesty invites us to the banquet, just to get closer to us. We will go to the banquet today and go to the morning court tomorrow. Are you embarrassed to oppose His Majesty allocating money from the Ministry of Civil Affairs to the inner treasury?"

Everyone suddenly realized.

"yes!"

"Mr. Wang said it well!"

"Your Majesty actually used this method!"

Everyone started talking.

Wei Zheng glanced at everyone and said coldly: "Everyone, I am talking about ugly words in front of you. You must never agree to this matter. If you really let Your Majesty allocate the money from the Ministry of Civil Affairs into the inner treasury and open this hole, what will next time? What will Next time? The Emperor is the emperor of all people, who governs all people on behalf of the heavens. Throughout history, any wise monarch will open up a wide range of words and adopt the advice of his ministers. Only the foolish monarch will listen to one's words. Once Your Majesty does this, how will the people view Your Majesty, how will the court, and how will the descendants view our Tang Dynasty... Now, the Tang Dynasty has been peaceful all over the world, and there are faint signs of all countries coming to court. As a minister, we should uphold justice and advise Your Majesty to do the right things and avoid wrong actions..."

Wei Zheng was so good at speaking, and he even talked for a long time.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Wang Gui said: "Mr. Wei is right, we cannot be fooled by His Majesty."

"Yes, support Lord Wei!"

Everyone seemed to be doing something great but tragic.

Everyone warns themselves in their hearts.

You can go to a banquet, but you must not be fooled by it.

At this moment, Gao Chen walked out and whispered: "Sir, please go outside Wanchun Palace. The banquet is ready."

Everyone walked in one after another, and did not forget to whisper to each other and urge each other.

Everyone came outside Wanchun Palace.

Seeing that the banquet was ready, Li Er sat upright above and looked at the ministers with a smile.

Everyone who was stared at by Li Er felt a little embarrassed.

Everyone was curious about why His Majesty Li Er was wearing a brand new white robe.

The robe was shining white and dazzling white.

After everyone sat down, Li Er said in a deep voice: "You all my dear ministers, you are my loyal ministers. They work hard for the Tang Dynasty. I am grateful for your contributions and specially invited everyone to a banquet today. Today, if you don't talk about state affairs, only the king and the ministers will have fun..."

Everyone is worried.

Li Eryi waved his hand: "Seat start!"

As he said that, he took the lead in moving the chopsticks.

Seeing this, everyone had to start eating.

Eat while eating.

Dang.

A dull sound scared everyone.

Everyone looked up and saw that Li Er accidentally sprinkled a bowl of soup on his clean robe.

The yellow soup looks particularly eye-catching on the white robe.

What a great robe!

Sprinkle soup, it's a waste!

Because it can't be washed clean!

This scared the palace maids and eunuchs around.

The close servant Gao Chen said in fear: "Your Majesty, I will help you go back and change into a piece of clothing."

Li Eryi raised his hand and said, "No need, just a little soup is fine. Gao Chen, take off my robe and wash it here."

Gao Chen looked confused.

But he still took off Li Er's robe in a hurry.

Then, several eunuchs carried in a wooden tub filled with hot water.

The palace maids put their robes in.

The ministers looked at each other.

What is this... what is it to do?

Wash laundry in public?

What is your Majesty doing?

Just when everyone was stunned.

Gao Chen took out a piece of milky yellow thing the size of a palm, put it in a wooden basin, rubbed the robe with the soup, and foam appeared.

Then, rub the robe a few times and wash it.

Wait until the clothes are wrung out and taken out.

Someone suddenly shouted, "Look, the robes are clean."

Everyone stared at the big eyes and saw that the soup on the robe disappeared without a trace.

The white robe is exactly like a brand new one.

Swish swish swish swish.

One by one, staring at the things in Gao Chen's hand.

Everyone knows it very well.

In this era, not to mention white robes, even other robes will not be washed clean once they are stained with oil.

And His Majesty Li Er's robe has become so clean, it must be related to that thing.

At this moment, Gao Chen shook his clean robe.

A scent came to my nose.
