Wei Zheng suddenly widened his eyes when he heard this. He didn't expect Li Mu to have this trick!

In fact, after Li Mu proposed the Zhenguan Plow, the court and the country were very suspicious of the practicality of the Zhenguan Plow, and Wei Zheng was one of them. Later, Li Mu asked Yuwengui to use the Zhenguan Plow to show it, which dispelled the concerns of the ministers in the court. Wei Zheng had seen the effect of the Zhenguan Plow with his own eyes. If the Zhenguan Plow was not used in various parts of Shandong, the losses can be imagined.

Wei Zheng said angrily: "Marquis Zhulu, how can you treat it so differently? You are taking personal revenge!"

Li Mu did not answer this question, but asked: "Duke of Zheng, do you know the allusion of Confucius asking about rituals to Lao Tzu?"

Wei Zheng was a little stunned. He didn't understand why Li Mu suddenly asked an irrelevant question, but if he didn't answer, it seemed as if he had a shallow knowledge, he still answered: "Of course I know. Confucius asked his disciple Nangong Jingshu, "Zhou's guardian's house, historian Lao Dan, is well-versed in ancient times, knows the source of etiquette and music, and understands the essence of morality. Now I want to go to Zhou for advice, would you like to go together?" Nangong Jingshu agreed happily, and then the two asked the monarch of Lu. After obtaining the approval of the monarch, he dispatched a two-horse carriage, a book boy, and a coachman, and Nangong Jingshu accompanied Confucius to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to learn etiquette at Laozi. He was talking about the Zhenguan plow, what did you ask for this?"

"According to what you said, did I teach Confucius?

Confucius was already a saint and could not be judged easily. Wei Zheng didn't know what Li Mu was thinking about it. After thinking about it carefully, he said, "It's just asking about etiquette, not counting the title of master and apprentice."

Li Mu smiled and said, "Then do you know why I am willing to teach Confucius?"

Wei Zheng vaguely realized that something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he answered more cautiously, saying, "There is no record in ancient books, I don't know."

"I know!" Li Mu couldn't hold it in anymore and said, "I am willing to teach Confucius, of course because I am willing. I will ask you again, why don't I teach others?"

Wei Zheng had already heard the meaning, and he was stinking his face and didn't say anything.

Li Mu laughed: "There is nothing, because I'm not happy!"

"I invented the things, and the secret method is mine. I will give you whatever I want. If I don't like the Shandong gentry, I won't give it. I won't give it to you, can't it?"

Wei Zheng was so angry that his eyes were full of Venus. He took a deep breath and saluted Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, did you hear it? If I remember correctly, the Marquis of Zhulu once said in person that he would offer it to the court so that the people could farm. But now, the Marquis of Zhulu actually ignored the lives and deaths of the people, and the Zhenguan Plow was also used as a threat. Your Majesty! The Marquis of Zhulu kept saying that he was for the country and the people, but he was just a demonstration. Such a selfish person, please let Your Majesty observe clearly."

Li Shimin was also a little unhappy. He could understand that Li Mu asked for money. After all, it was a real money and silver cushion. But now Li Mu didn't even use the Zhenguan plow. Although he only treated Shandong gentry differently, Li Shimin was still a little uncomfortable. Just as he was about to ask, Li Mu said, "What a moral kidnapping! But it's useless. I won't take this trick!"

"Your Majesty, I explained. I have reported to Your Majesty that the ploughshares of Zhenguan Plow require special forging methods. If you make Zhenguan Plow in large quantities, there are only two ways. First, the Ministry of Works has established a factory. I mentioned in my memorial the day before yesterday that if Your Majesty forgets, you can take a look. This factory is still in its inception and will not be able to borrow power for a while. Even if it is established, it will not be able to supply the whole country. Second, I am teaching the forging method myself, but Your Majesty must understand that if this secret method is passed on, it will not be kept secret. Now the Shandong gentry regards ministers as if they are thorns in their eyes, and they are small-minded and cannot repay their grievances with virtue. Furthermore, I have heard that the most thing that Shandong gentry loves to do is to annex the land of the people. When I pass the secret method to them, the people will not get much benefit. Therefore, I do not pass it on, and I will not pass it on, and I will not pass it on anything!" After a pause, he said again: "Unless..."

When Wei Zheng heard that he had a living speech, he quickly said, "Unless what?"

Li Mu raised his chin and said with a stingy face, "Unless the Shandong scholars and students who scolded me yesterday, as well as you, Duke Zheng, knelt in front of me and kowtow three times, shouting that the Marquis Zhulu is magnanimous, we are all villains, wrongly accusing the Marquis of Marquis. The Marquis of Marquis expressed mercy and taught us the secret method. Set up a high platform at the gate of the imperial city, kowtow three times, and shout three times, I am in a good mood, maybe I can agree!"

Wei Zheng was so angry that the three corpse gods furious and said angrily: "Children Huangkou! You are delusional!"

"Oh ha! You old dog, you guys, you guys scold me, and you want my secret technique. Why don't you rob me? So shameless, which saint's knowledge is this? I really want to learn it! I just asked you to apologize to me. I apologize, and I will teach you secret techniques. After all, no one knows that I, Li Mu, are the most concerned about the people? Now you not only don't apologize, but also insult me ​​again. OK! You will definitely not give it to you! All consequences are to be responsible for, and it has nothing to do with me, Li Mu. Who makes you regard your face as more important than the lives of the people?!"

"You, you..." Wei Zheng's face turned red and white. He pointed at Li Mu and couldn't speak. Li Mu glanced at him sideways and said, "What are you pointing at me? You're angry? It's really not possible. You can send a few detailed works to my mansion to steal. My mansion is not very prepared. Maybe it may not be possible to succeed. If you steal it, you will use it shamelessly. I don't mind. Anyway, whoever steals it is shameless."

"you!"

"Okay, I can't say a few words. If I vomit blood again, I will depend on me."

Wei Zheng forced himself to suture the blood from his chest and gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't give me, you won't give me. There was no Zhenguan plow before, and the people in Shandong did not starve to death. The honest ones would not accept the food given by pity. Zhulu Hou, there is no need for you to beat me with words, we don't need it!"

"Hey, that's right? Don't think that only you can use the provocation method. I read the history books and read the Three Kingdoms first. Zhuge Kongming's part that I was angry with Wang Lang to death. I remembered it and used it freely. I didn't bother me to get angry at me for no reason, and it would be a waste of my life!"

Wei Zheng knew that he could not say anything, so he closed his eyes and ignored him. Li Mu gave him a blank look. Seeing that Li Shimin had a bad gaze, he quickly went down honestly and said, "Your Majesty, you are a boy, Meng Lang, please forgive me."

"Hmph!" Li Shimin glared at him fiercely and said, "I keep you not only for this kid's business, but also a big thing I want to tell you to your dear friends."

Seeing that everyone's eyes gathered over, Li Shimin said, "Du Xiang's body is no longer successful. Du Xiang has repeatedly written to me to remove him from the position of Shangshu Right Pushe. I remember his contributions in my heart and have never agreed. However, now the country's major affairs are coming, and the imperial examination will be held next year. The position of Shangshu Right Pushe is empty, leaving only Fang Xiang, which is indeed difficult. Now I have made a decision."

Everyone was excited and it seemed that the Tang Dynasty was about to have a new prime minister.

"Li Jing."

"His Majesty."

"The former Sui general Shi Wansui defeated Datou Khan, but the Sui Dynasty did not reward him, which led to his destruction. I would not do this, and I would definitely be clear in rewards. I have already punished you for your unjust management of the army, but I have not given a corresponding expression to your achievements in defeating the Turks in destroying the country. I want to worship you as the Minister of Shangshu, what do you think?"

Li Jing was stunned when he heard this, and the others were also a little stunned. The position of Shangshu's right servant, the wind that he heard before was Wei Zheng. Now that Wei Zheng has caused so many things, everyone knows that he is going to stay away, but after thinking about it, no one expected Li Jing.

Li Jing himself did not expect that, so he quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am a military general, with a very shallow knowledge. How can I bear the important task of governing the country? Please take back your life!"

"I know my dear character and knowledge. I want to regard my dear love as prime minister, isn't I willing to assist me?"

"This..." When it comes to this, Li Jing refused so much that he had to bow again and said, "I can only do my best."

"Very good." Li Shimin helped Li Jing up and said, "I have ordered the Imperial Heavenly Supervision to choose the best time to prepare the ceremony. If you are not careful in your worship of the prime minister, you can just do the decree of your decree."

Li Jing nodded, and Li Shimin said again: "Li Jing was promoted to the right tutor of Shangshu, and the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of War is empty. I have decided to appoint Hou Junji to take over. In addition, the prince is getting older and needs an elder that I can trust and rely on to manage. I plan to let Song Duke Xiao Yu serve as the young tutor of the crown prince and educate the crown prince. The position of censorship is......" Li Shimin glanced at Wei Zheng and said: "Wei Aiqing took over."

Let Wei Zheng be the censor?

I thought it would be a surprise to let Li Jing be the Minister of Shangshu, but I didn’t expect there would be even greater surprises. Everyone was shocked. What’s wrong with Your Majesty? Are you trying to find trouble for yourself?

Wei Zheng did not expect it and hurriedly bowed: "Your Majesty is as broad as the sea, and I admire you very much."

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Is it a petty person in your heart? Wei Zheng, although you repeatedly contradict me and have disrespectful words, I still allow you to be in the court and use it more seriously. If you dare to make a fuss, I will definitely have people like you around me. The Censorate is just right for you. If you encounter any problems in the future, I will consider it for me. I will treat you very much."

Wei Zheng finally showed a look of shame and said, "Your Majesty, I must read more history and study the way of being a minister."

"Okay, I remember this sentence." Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "I have been arguing in the court for half a day today, and quarreling in the Tai Chi Hall for half a day. Finally, it has come to an end. I can be quiet and quiet. I am tired, please do whatever you want."

"I'm going to leave."

Everyone took a leave, and Li Mu followed him out. As soon as he took a step, Eunuch Gao grabbed his clothes and Li Mu took back his legs.

When Li Mu returned to the hall, Eunuch Gao closed the door. Li Shimin stared at Li Mu with a serious face and looked at him with a bad look. Suddenly, he took a photo of the desk, which scared Li Mu so much that he shrank his neck.
