Chapter 2 Cen Wenwen's Advice

Chapter 2 Cen Wenben’s advice

Speaking of this, Li Zhen sneered at the corner of his mouth: "The situation you said might have happened before, but now it's different. Now the public opinion is in our hands. What do we want to say, isn't it?"

"Your Highness is talking about newspapers?" Cen Wenben's eyes lit up. Today's newspapers are very popular in the Tang Dynasty because they record too many useful things, from palace gossip, to rumor about the government and the country, to legends and folk stories, farming, economics and finance, etc., and what they want is very popular among the people. Many farmers have learned some farming experience from newspapers, and some merchants have made a lot of money through the information in the newspaper.

"It's not just newspapers. Do you think that since they formed an alliance with the aristocratic family to assassinate me, the father would still use them?" Li Zhen asked back.

"This..." Cen Wenben's expression changed. He was also a Confucian disciple. He felt a little uncomfortable when he heard Li Zhen's words. However, he also knew that this time, Confucianism did too much and dared to use assassination to assassinate a prince with a promising future. What's even more excessive is that what Li Shimin hated the most was the aristocratic family, but Confucianism colluded with the aristocratic family...

Not to mention that they did not succeed, even if they were really successful, Li Shimin and his successor would no longer reuse Confucianism - no ruler would be willing to use a school that could blatantly assassinate a crown prince for his own interests.

Confucianism has really passed this time, especially the methods are too despicable. Such villain style is completely inconsistent with the gentleman's way they preach - a school that does not even abides by its own code of conduct, can guess how dark it is behind the scenes and the inner ones are. How dare the monarch use such a school that is superficial and inner ones?

It can be said that this time, Confucianism pushed itself into the abyss that was endless, and no one could save them.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Didn't we say there is a banquet? Let's go quickly. We have to eat and sleep well on the boat these days. Today, we can pay tribute to my five internal organs temple." After saying that, Li Zhen knocked his horse's belly lightly and ran forward quickly. Cen Wenben immediately followed, and the entire team was much faster.

...

The next day, Li Zhen got up early one morning. Although he returned to Yuezhou, this does not mean that he can rest. This is impossible. With his status, isn’t it easy to find something to do?

Fortunately, he pulled some of the businesses in the Book Garden to the Yue Palace, and Cen Wenben was there to take charge of the overall situation. With their efforts, Yuezhou has not found anything big in the past few months.

After reading the report for the past few months, it was already noon after reading it. I was about to have some lunch when I saw my subordinates come in and report: "Your Highness, Yuchi Baoqing, Pei Xingjian and others come to pay their respects with all the lords of Tiance Mansion."

"They?" Li Zhen was stunned and suddenly realized that he had been back for almost a day and had not met all the subordinates of the Tiance Mansion. This was really unreasonable.

"Let them come in quickly."

"My minister, Yuchi Baoqing, has seen Your Highness." Yuchi Baoqing came up to pay a visit with a big gift, and everyone behind him hurriedly followed.

"Everyone please get up quickly." Li Zhen hurriedly stepped forward and helped everyone up, saying with a little apology: "I am really sorry. I have just returned to Yuezhou and have not had time to meet you before I can meet you. I am really sorry."

"What's your highness talking about? Your Highness is busy with affairs. I'm here to disturb Your Highness. It's probably our fault." Yuchi Baoqing, his brother Yuchi Baolin and their father Yuchi Jingde were simply carved from the same mold, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, black face and cheeks. From a distance, he was just a small-cap Yuchi Jingde. There was no need to identify it at all. When the three of them came together, everyone knew that they were father and son.

However, unlike Yuchi Jingde's stupidity, the Yuchi brothers have been learning literary and martial arts since childhood. Although they have not achieved much, they have learned everything they see. Regarding this, they are much better than the Cheng brothers.

At this time, Cheng Chuliang was already scratching his ears and jumping up and down beside Li Zhen: "Your Highness, don't be polite to me. Xiao Cheng felt uncomfortable all over when he heard these literary things. Don't be polite, I will just say it. We are here to find your highness for something."

"Do you have any rules? Go and play with me?" Yuchi Baoqing was furious and slapped Cheng Chuliang aside.

Although Yuchi Baoqing may not be as close to Cheng Chuliang and Li Zhen in terms of closeness, he is not inferior to Cheng Chuliang's martial arts. Moreover, he is older than Cheng Chuliang. Before coming, Cheng Yaojin asked Yuchi Baoqing to take care of him more - this is equivalent to handing over Cheng Chuliang's power to Yuchi Baoqing, so Yuchi Baoqing can completely punch Cheng Chuliang and kick Cheng Chuliang in various disciplines, but Cheng Chuliang cannot resist.

Fortunately, Yuchi Baoqing was watching from the side during this period. Otherwise, with Cheng Chuliang's ability to cause trouble, Yuezhou City would have been a big fuss.

"It's okay, it's okay, they are all their own brothers, there's no need to be so polite." Li Zhen laughed and said, "What's going on? Everyone might as well tell me what it is."

"This..." Everyone looked at each other, and finally Yuchi Baoqing said, "Your Highness, it's not a difficult task. I just ask your highness to... can you arrange something for us?"

"Hmm?" Li Zhen was stunned: "What do you mean? You have been here for so long, has Mr. Cen not arranged things for you?"

"There are, but there are many small jobs, but they are mostly small jobs." Speaking of this, even Pei Xingjian felt aggrieved: "Of course, I don't think that small jobs are not life, and I don't want to do them. But even this small job occasionally has one or two, which is not enough for us to share. Before you come back, Baoqing is better, at least there is still a street patrol work that consumes time, and I have been idle for seven days."

"No, right? Mr. Cen should not be such a person." Those who are the best should be biased, and Cen Wenben would not make such a mistake.

"No matter what Mr. Cen is doing." Yuchi Baoqing waved his hand quickly: "Actually, if you look for a job, you can still find a lot of people, but don't forget that we are all from the Tiance Mansion and are military positions. If we are not suitable for interfering in local government affairs, it is easy to lose people's talk."

"That's right." Li Zhen thought for a moment: "That is to say, you want me to have a longer-term job?"

Cheng Yaojin nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, it can be at least a year or two."

"That's it." Li Zhen thought for a moment and said to the outsider: "Come here, invite Mr. Cen to this king."

"yes."
