Chapter 262 The East of the River
Wei Zheng’s suggestion makes some sense. There are many powerful families in Hedong, and if there is no high position and powerful person, it may be difficult to shock him.
Xie Yi alone is capable enough, but his power is lacking. Sending a prince or prince is a good choice.
Prince or Prince, Wei Zheng's words are very artistic.
According to the current system of the Tang Dynasty, if any prince is granted the title of prince, and if the prince is sent, it must be the prince.
But if the focus is on the word "Prince", then there will be more explanations. His Majesty the Emperor had more than ten brothers, all of whom were the titles of princes. Now that the age of the emperor is getting older, it is suitable.
But, which one is the right one?
Cen Wenben said leisurely: "It is reasonable to say that the King of Jin is the most suitable place to go in the place of Jin. After all, the fief of His Highness of Jin is there, and His Highness also takes the position of Bingzhou Grand Governor. However, King of Jin is still young, but it is not too young, so it is not necessary to have proper experience."
King Li Zhi of Jin was thirteen years old.
In later generations, he would definitely be a little kid who knows nothing, but it was completely different in ancient times. Thirteen years old was already the age to be a father.
King Li Tai of Wei got married at the age of eleven. Prince Li Xin was probably at this age when she was born. She could naturally be considered an adult if she could be a father.
In ancient times, there were 12 Ganluo as prime ministers, and there were many emperors who ascended the throne at a young age, so the royal family members could be regarded as adults at the age of thirteen.
Therefore, it is not outrageous to mention that King Jin was mentioned by Cen Wenben. After all, his fief was in Jin, which is most appropriate in this regard. What's more, since Xie Yi was sent to him, Xie Yi was the chief minister of the King of Jin, and the monarch and ministers went together to complement each other. Moreover, Li Ji, the chief of the Bingzhou Grand Governor's Office, was nominally considered an official under King Li Zhi of Jin.
With these two young, capable and heroic chief ministers, it is not difficult to escape from Jin King Li Zhi. After all, Jin King is just a signboard, and Xie Yi is the main person in charge of doing things.
Of course, the final decision is still in the hands of Emperor Li Shimin.
The eyes of the ministers fell on the throne, and the emperor was pondering and hesitating, which meant that he was moved.
Li Shiming was really hesitant. This proposal seemed to be good. Xie Yi was a two irrelevant person, but it might make his two sons uneasy.
Li Zhi was related to both sides, and simply sent a foreign minister to easily expose the royal scandal. When the prince went there, he could avoid similar problems.
But in this way, will the youngest son be involved in disputes? Perhaps until this time, Li Shimin's plan did not include his beloved young son, so he was a little hesitant.
"Auxiliary machine, what do you think?"
When Changsun Wuji heard this, he pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, King of Jin, is getting older and older, and he has a long experience when he goes out. He is not necessary to experience it."
It was very strange that Changsun Wuji, who had been silent all the time, spoke up. And it was really a bowl of water, and the three nephews were unbiased.
Hearing this answer, Li Shimin was silent. After a long time, he waved his hand to ask the court officials to retreat. He still needed to think about this matter.
...
Xie Yi was so happy that he was in the villa of Wangchuan. When he was accompanying his two wives to have a baby, he was recalled back to Chang'an by an edict.
He knew nothing about what happened, and even a little confused. After being forgotten for half a year, the emperor remembered himself again?
However, the emperor had to obey the emperor's will, so he had to leave his wife for a while and went to Chang'an to see the emperor.
Entering Tai Chi Palace and Chengqing Hall. Although it took many days to perform the rituals of the king and the ministers, Xie Yi was still very mellow.
"Xiaoyao, I heard that you have recently built a separate courtyard in Nanshan. There is a place where you are free and free, and you are happy and you don't want to leave?" Li Shimin asked with a smile. As the emperor, he is naturally a good person. Even if the Lan/Tian County Magistrate does not report, he still has channels to understand.
Xie Yi said: "Go back to Your Majesty, I built a villa in Wangchuan, Nanshan. The scenery was indeed beautiful. I originally wanted to go to escape the summer heat, but coincidentally Li Wan was pregnant, so she stayed there to accompany her to have a baby."
"Oh, I'm going to be a father, a good thing! I have to congratulate you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Li Shimin laughed and said, "Being a father means that he really grows up and is capable of taking on a great responsibility!"
"Your Majesty is saying." Xie Yi was timid, but he had a bad premonition in his heart.
Li Shimin said: "Your wife is pregnant. It is logical that you should stay in Chang'an, accompany your wife and wait for the birth of a child. However, men are determined to be in all directions, and sometimes some choices are necessary.
When many of my children were born, I was not around because of various things. Now I think about it.
"Your Majesty is busy with government affairs every day. All the empresses and princes will understand it. Your Majesty does not need to worry." Xie Yi laughed and comforted him.
Li Shimin said leisurely: "Although I regret it, I cannot let you go."
"Let's go..." Sure enough, Xie Yi knew it well. It seemed that he had a hard work, and he didn't know where he wanted to go?
Alas, I forget myself out of the sky every day, and when I have trouble, I think of myself. It’s really a bit unrighteous!
"Xiaoyao, go to Hedong for a walk and come back before the end of the year, just in time for the child to be born." Li Shimin whispered.
"Hedong?" Xie Yi was slightly surprised and asked, "Please give your majesty a name and let me go to Hedong, why did you do this?"
Li Shimin said leisurely: "I want to let the zhinu go to inspect Hedong and go to Jinyang to observe and visit the former residence of Emperor Gaozu. As his chief minister, please follow us!"
"Yes, this is my duty." Xie Yi quickly agreed, but after he said that, he suddenly felt a little nervous, something was wrong!
Let Li Zhi go to visit the former residence of Emperor Gaozu? What is this situation?
If Li Shimin went by himself, it would be completely reasonable for Li Zhi to accompany him, but let Li Zhi go alone...
It's a bit unreasonable!
Li Zhi was only thirteen years old. Li Shimin has always loved him. He opened a mansion in name but still allowed him to live in the palace. He was very cared for. How could he suddenly let him go to Hedong alone?
I'm afraid there is something that I don't know.
Xie Yi couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He was completely immersed in the joy of his wife's pregnancy these days, and he ignored the news and information in Chang'an City, so that he was like a blind man now.
It shouldn't be!
Now we can only speculate that the King of Jin is the prince. Logically speaking, the land of Jin in Hedong should be his fiefdom, but Li Shimin did not divide the feudal, but asked him to pay homage...
The prince has a valuable status, so how could he go somewhere easily? There are big articles in it. Could it be that Li Zhi went to Hedong to shock some people or release some signal?
What are you just asking yourself to do?
Xie Yi felt that it was definitely not as simple as accompanying Li Zhi. God knew that there was something messy waiting for him.
There is no way, who has brought such a domineering king with "uneasy and kindness"? (To be continued.)
