I beg you gentlemen not to underestimate Zhuang Zhou's talent because of his status."
Li Chengqian's words made the atmosphere in the court tense again.
Li Er looked at Wei Zheng, then at the other court officials, and said calmly:
"Wei Zheng's concerns must also be your concerns.
I can understand.
But I also believe in my own vision.
I have seen Zhuang Zhou's talent with my own eyes and heard with my own ears.
I believe that the prince will benefit greatly from his guidance.
As for Zhuang Zhou's identity... I think that identity cannot determine a person's talent and ability.
I hope you can put aside your prejudices and prioritize national affairs."
Li Er's words made it impossible for Wei Zheng and others to refute.
You should know that Wei Zheng followed six people in total.
Skip the slot six times.
The first one was called Yuan Baozang. During the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Wei Zheng served under Yuan Baozang.
Later, he followed Yuan Baozang and followed Li Mi of Wagangzhai.
Later, Li Mi rebelled against the Tang Dynasty and was killed, and Wei Zheng followed Li Yuan again.
When he was under Li Yuan, he went to persuade Xu Shiji, a general who had once been under Li Mi, to surrender.
Later, due to defeat in battle, he was captured by Dou Jiande and became Dou Jiande's adviser.
Dou Jiande was defeated by Li Shimin, and Wei Zheng defected to Crown Prince Li Jiancheng.
And this is also the most legendary master.
Wei Zheng had long realized that Li Er was no ordinary person, and he persuaded Li Jiancheng to take the initiative and get rid of Li Er.
But then the Xuanwu Gate Incident occurred.
Li Er did not kill Wei Zheng, but entrusted him with an important task.
Finally, Wei Zheng followed Li Er and assisted Li for 27 years, becoming the most important minister of remonstration during the Zhenguan period.
All in all, Wei Zheng changed six masters in his life.
Finally, he met Li Er and finally achieved the reputation of being a famous prime minister throughout the ages.
So if we look at one's background, Wei Zheng would be the first one to have nothing to say.
But Li Er obviously doesn't care about these.
Especially after the Xuanwu Gate Incident.
Li Er re-employed many people who had followed Li Jiancheng.
And they were all entrusted with important tasks.
After hearing what Li Er said, the officials still had doubts in their hearts.
But they no longer dared to openly oppose it.
And, of course, they understand.
The reason why Li Er values Zhuang Zhou so much.
It's not just because of his talent, but also because of his special identity.
There have been rumors about Chang'an for a long time.
Zhuang Zhou is a Taoist immortal, sent by God to assist the Holy King.
It's this unspeakable secret.
All the court officials knew it very well.
“…”
However.
At this moment, one of the court officials raised his tablet and said loudly:
"Your Majesty, I have something to say!"
Zhuang Zhou heard the sound and looked over.
Huh?
Isn’t this Kong Yingda, the Minister of Education of the Tang Dynasty?
