Chapter 935 The little fat man who reverses black and white!

Seeing that all the ministers, including the prince, had no objections, Li Tai was secretly happy. After all these years, he could finally stand in front of the emperor and "make a decision with one word." Liu Jie was really a capable minister who knew every detail and knew how to deal with the world.

After being overjoyed, in order to further prove that his point of view was correct, Li Tai also quoted the words of Tai Shigong in "Historical Records" as evidence, which confirmed the emperor's point of view.

"Historical Records" records: He knows enough to distance himself from admonitions, his words are enough to cover up his faults, he respects others and ministers with their abilities, and he raises his voice to the world, thinking that everyone is beneath him. These words are what Sima Qian said about King Zhou, which means that King Zhou's wisdom

He is able to refuse the advice of his ministers, and his eloquence is enough to cover up his faults. He boasts about himself in front of his ministers based on his talents, and promotes himself everywhere based on his prestige, thinking that no one in the world can compare with him.

Is what Tai Shigong said reliable? Not necessarily, because he told lies not once or twice. Take the Chronicle of Emperor Qin as an example. He made up a lot of lies.

So how did he evaluate Qin Shihuang? "The Chronicles of the Qin Emperor" says: The King of Qin missed the greedy heart and pursued the wisdom of self-improvement. He did not believe in meritorious officials and was not close to the people. He abolished the king's way and established private rights. He banned documents and cruel laws.

First use deception, then benevolence and righteousness, and then start with tyranny.

As the ancestral dragon, the First Emperor became the first emperor of China. He swept through the six kingdoms and unified the world. He used the same writing system and the same chariot track to unify weights and measures. He attacked the Xiongnu in the north and the Baiyue in the south. He had too many great achievements in his life, even if his character

A little irritable, but his flaws are not to be concealed.

Any scholar with some understanding can see that Tai Shigong's evaluation of the First Emperor was very unfair, so why did he use this Spring and Autumn style of writing to portray the image of the First Emperor? It was to rectify the name of Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, who was born in a humble background.

The so-called attack on the unjust and the violent Qin Dynasty found reasonable and legal reasons for the rebellion.

So, would the historians of the Zhou Dynasty also treat King Zhou in the same way? As the emperor and his courtiers, they were the breadwinners of the Zhou royal family, so naturally they had to "solve problems" for the king like Tai Shigong!

Moreover, according to reliable historical records, when Emperor Wu was in power, he had many criticisms of the "Historical Records" compiled by Tai Shigong, and scolded him more than once, especially some of his assumptions about the pre-Qin part, which were too inappropriate.

Seeking truth from facts.

"Whether it is a faint king or a wise king, the quality of King Zhou has no direct relationship with the title of human king. Now it seems that the people of the Zhou royal family deliberately added a mysterious halo to themselves in order to cover up the fact of regicide.

Renamed the Son of Heaven, the power of kingship is granted by God!"

"According to my opinion, my father's achievements not only surpass those of Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, but are also not inferior to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors! Since Qin Shihuang can use the words "Emperor" and "Emperor" to confirm his new supreme position, then my father's

Why can't the emperor use the title "Human Emperor" like the ancient Holy Emperor?"

"Father is the only ruler of the world, why should we be bound by such false things as the so-called divine power! Isn't it just that the Fo family uses the name of gods and Buddhas to deceive the people and make money to satisfy their own rebellious intentions! The people are the father.

The life, death, wealth and honor of the emperor's people should be in the hands of the emperor, not those vain things!"

"Therefore, I think that my father should abandon the title of Son of Heaven and use the title of Human Emperor that was used exclusively by the ancient Holy Emperors, to be superior to all things in the world. Emperor and Human Emperor, these two titles are just right, and they are better than having a title on his head.

One can better reflect the majesty of the Supreme."

Li Tai's "bold words" shocked everyone except Liu Ji. The emperor, who had always been somewhat arrogant, was flattered by the two of them and was very satisfied. He had nowhere to put his hands and moved them back and forth in front of his stomach.

Just rub it and you will know that the emperor, no, the new human emperor is tempted.

Everyone, including Li Chengqian, looked "well" at Li Tai and Liu Ji, and they looked at them with different eyes; in order to flatter the emperor, even the emperors and sages of the ages turned over.

Inviting favors does not even consider the bottom line of scholars, which really puts scholar-bureaucrats to shame.

Li Chengqian wanted to laugh, but the situation was not right. In order to suppress his laughter, he turned his hand behind his back and pinched his back hard. Since he entered the DPRK and participated in politics, he has been to too many places.

I have met too many people, but Li Chengqian dares to swear that he is the only one who is as shameless as the two of them.

It is said that the historians and Grand Historian of the Zhou royal family distorted the facts. Isn't it true for him and Liu Ji? Yes, it is the responsibility of ministers to avoid certain issues for the emperor, but you are not allowed to quote it like this! This is a complete and utter nonsense

Rigoletto, okay!

Whether a book is right or wrong depends on one's personal understanding. The benevolent see the benevolence and the wise see the wisdom. I don't force you to follow the book, and I never say that your own point of view is right.

Just think about the history of the Sui Dynasty compiled by this dynasty. How many things in it were brought by the Spring and Autumn Period? There are too many! It is nothing more than consolidating the interests of those in power.

Li Chengqian can guarantee that these two people have benefited from Jiuding today. On another occasion, his father would definitely think that this was a reference to Sang and scolding Huai. Then let alone asking for credit, it would be a blessing if he didn't skin them both.

Just when Li Chengqian was lost in thought, the emperor, who was a little embarrassed by the praise, said with a smile: "Hey, what Qingque and Liu Qing said is too much. No matter how sage I am, no matter how great my achievements are, I can't compare with the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."

"As for the title of Human Emperor that they two mentioned! What are your opinions? Come on, Gao Ming, Auxiliary Machine, Xuan Ling, you all have a say!" Li Shimin pinched his waist and looked at Jiuding nonchalantly.

, while talking.

Even a fool can tell that the emperor is tempted. He said this because he wanted everyone to help smooth over the situation, so that he could bring it up to the court openly. Without everyone's support, they would not be able to pass the court discussion just relying on the little fat man.

, let alone use it.

"Well, Your Majesty, this is a serious matter. I think we should be cautious. Common people often say that the meat in a bun is not in the folds. The imperial court has just weakened the so-called divine power of the Fo family. Can we make it more stable and discuss this matter? Then everything will be natural.

Everything will work out when it comes." Changsun Wuji saw that the prince was holding back his laughter, so he quickly pulled him without any trace, and then stood up to cover the prince's misconduct.

"Your Majesty, it's not impossible to invite King Wei and Prime Minister Liu, but there are still many affairs in the court at the moment, and the battle of Gaochang has not been concluded yet. Should we wait for the victory and the army to return to the court first, and then take advantage of the festive time to do it?"

, Fang Xuanling also stood over and replied with a cupped hand.

Yes, both important ministers have covered up their misconduct. If he doesn't stand up again, he will appear to be a bit petty. Although the contribution of Jiuding is great, he cannot be proud of himself and cannot allow others to perform "miraculous achievements" again.
