Chang'an, Tai Chi Palace, Liangyi Hall.

"Du Aiqing, has that Chen Fei been called back to Chang'an?" Li Shimin asked.

Du Ruhui nodded immediately and replied, "He was called back. It was me who personally asked my younger brother Du Chuke to call him back. Now it should be on the way. But in fact, I wanted to continue to test him and let him work in the county for a few more years, but why did the emperor ask him to come back so quickly? Could it be that the emperor missed the little princess? If I missed the little princess, it would be that I would call Chen Fei together? And I also directly asked him to leave the position of county magistrate of Shuo County. Isn't this too anxious?"

Li Shimin shook his head and said, "Shuo County has done a good job. The officials in Shuo County are just Xiao Guicao followed and they don't have so much energy. In fact, I have claimed to be obsessed with countless people in my life, but I have to admit that I have been wronged by Chen Fei."

"Oh? The emperor is always confused?" Du Ruhui said.

Li Shimin said proactively: "Whether a person is talented can often be seen from his temperament. Chen Fei saw that he was not a talented and ambitious person. Originally, I just wanted to use it as an ordinary chess piece, that is, I put him in the Tai Chi Palace as an eyeliner. But now I found that he was able to manage people's livelihood so well that a county town became rich. This really made me admire him. I have never understood why he was so capable, but his temperament was just the temperament of an ordinary mediocre person? I have learned the art of observing people since I was a child, but this time I got lost and almost missed a talent. He is so talented, so I want to use him, but..."

Du Ruhui asked again: "But what?"

"The relationship between him and King Xi's daughter is what I mean..." Li Shimin said.

Du Ruhui knew that Li Shimin still had some knots in his heart, and obviously he could not let go of it for a while. Chen Fei saved Li Jiancheng's daughter at that time. Although he was just a daughter, not a son, and it was not something that could never be forgiven. However, Li Shimin also left a knot because of this. Although he would not have to kill Chen Fei, he had a bad impression of Chen Fei.

"Emperor, the matter of King Xi is over. Moreover, he was the painting tutor of King Xi's daughter and Princess Lizhi's mentor, so he was just performing his tutor's duties. Few mentors can watch their students die in front of him, so this is a truly good mentor. Didn't the emperor want him to be the tutor of the emperor? And if he can treat his students like this, he will definitely teach the tutor seriously in the future. So isn't this a good thing?" Du Ruhui said.

Li Shimin thought about it and it seemed that this was true. If we look at it from another perspective, it can also prove that Chen Fei is a truly qualified tutor. He can do whatever he wants for his students, and he is definitely a truly excellent tutor. Li Shimin also had to admit that it is difficult to find such tutors with lanterns, so the knots in Li Shimin's heart have been resolved a lot again.

"Emperor, where are you going to let Chen Fei go to work next? The emperor is so anxious to get him back to Chang'an, so he must have an idea?" Du Ruhui asked.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Actually, it's not me who wants him to come back this time. Cui Fu planned to let him go."

"Well? The emperor said Cui Fu fell in love with him?" Du Ruhui suddenly asked mysteriously.

Li Shimin said: "Yes, Cui Fu has fallen in love with him and wants him to do that."

Du Ruhui said again: "Cui Fu cooperated with us this time, but what did Cui Fu liked him? He actually chose him? Chen Fei, I observed some of his usual resumes in Shuo County. He seemed to be very unfamiliar with power and strategy, and he was not proficient in power and strategy. So is it a bit difficult for him to do such a thing?"

"Hahahaha..." Li Shimin suddenly laughed out loud.

"What is the emperor laughing at?" Du Ruhui asked.

Li Shimin replied: "He doesn't understand power and strategy? I see that no one in this world knows power and strategy better than him. The so-called power and strategy for ordinary people is just the level of ordinary 'art'. But he has reached the level of 'Tao'. Others try their best to seize power and let themselves grasp greater power, and they wish the whole world is in his hands. However, I understand that such a person is just a mediocre person. Even those kings who have seized power since ancient times are actually mediocre people. A true wise ruler dares to delegate power and truly dares to hand over power to his subordinates, rather than concentrate on himself. Chen Fei has already understood this, so his power and strategy are not at the same level as those ordinary officials. He has reached the level of 'Tao'. Can you still say that he does not understand power and strategy?"

Sometimes delegating power does not mean that your rights have been reduced. Although you have delegated power, the centripetal force of your subordinates has been greatly improved, and the execution of your orders is more thorough and smoother. Isn’t this your rights increasing? Therefore, delegating power is the real level of "Tao". The so-called concentrating rights is just a "craft".

Du Ruhui was speechless. He didn't expect Li Shimin to praise Chen Fei so much. Du Ruhui also thought Chen Fei was a good talent, but he didn't expect Li Shimin had a higher evaluation of him. Originally, Du Ruhui thought Chen Fei was not proficient in power and strategy, but now it seems that he is truly powerful. By delegating power and using the power in his hands as bargaining chips to support him in those places, isn't this a capable person? Talents who know how to delegate power can truly fight for power. Chen Fei's power and strategy is actually very high. Such people are born as emperors or prime ministers because they know how to delegate power.

Moreover, a prime minister who knows how to delegate power is actually the most reassuring person for the emperor. If a prime minister takes power hard, it may make the emperor suspicious. If he can delegate power, it means that you have no ambitions for power, so that the emperor will be truly reassuring.

"Since the emperor wants to choose him, let him go. But there is a place where people eat and don't spit bones. He is a person who has no family background to protect him. Will he be willing to go? If he refuses to go, or simply stops going, what should he do?" Du Ruhui asked.

Li Shimin was silent about Du Ruhui's question and said, "Then wait until he returns to Chang'an and let me see him before talking. If not, then force him to go." (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better and faster!
