The first legitimate son of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 214 A direct conversation between Ang Lee and Meng Ziqian
"The Tang Dynasty is your Majesty's Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty is also the Tang Dynasty of the common people. You have acted as a traitor and wantonly insulted the people of the Tang Dynasty. You should be punished!" Li An pointed at the leader of the Meng family servants just now and said: " Go back and tell your master that Li An will be waiting for the Meng family's son here today, and he will come to the Shengle Building within half an hour to apologize. If he doesn't come, Li An will let him know what the laws of the Tang Dynasty are!"

"Wait!" After the servant leader was released by Liu Fangzi, he immediately ran away.

At this time, Li An gently comforted Liu Zhizhi in his arms: "Don't be afraid, the Tang Dynasty has laws. The laws of the Tang Dynasty were personally determined by His Majesty. Your Majesty once said that the way to be a king must first save the people. . If he harms the people in order to sacrifice his body, he will cut off his legs and eat his belly. If his belly is full, he will die."

The meaning of this sentence is the principle of being a king, which is to put the survival of the people first.If you support yourself at the expense of the interests of the people, it is equivalent to cutting off the flesh from your own thighs to fill your stomach.This is not at all like drinking doves to quench thirst. Although the stomach is filled, the person also dies.

In history, Li Shimin deeply understood the essence of Confucian people-centered thought, valued the voices of the people, and cared about what the people thought.As a monarch, if the people under his rule work hard all year round, but in the end the fruits of their labor are not enough to support their parents, and they even have to rely on loans to meet their living needs, then how can this monarch be called the parents of the people?
Through metaphors, Li Shimin clarified the governing philosophy that the people are the foundation of a country.Although it is the foundation of the king, it is also the blessing of the people.Those who serve in politics and as officials should cultivate moral sentiments, have the moral sentiments of the people at heart, care about the sufferings of the people, and be able to think about the people at all times. Only in this way can the people give everything they have to the monarch.

So Li An is betting that Li Shimin will be the same as in history. He directly puts the Meng family's behavior in opposition to the common people. This is raising a flag and pulling the skin of a tiger. He wants to use this excuse to get Li Shimin to take action. Help yourself, which is increasing the strength behind you.

"I believe that if anything happens to you, I will kill myself before you. I will never live." Liu Zhizhi's tears flowed out.

Li An laughed loudly: "Meng family, I don't care!"

Because Meng Ziqian's residence was on the side of Pingkangfang, Meng Ziqian was brought over by a carriage in less than a quarter of an hour. Li An and Meng Ziqian met for the first time, and they saw Meng Ziqian's face. Pale and pale, he knew without even thinking that this man's final time had been in the past few years. He had been completely drained by alcohol and sex.

After Meng Ziqian and Li An looked at each other, they showed an extremely contemptuous expression and said: "You are Li An, the farmer outside Chang'an City?"

"Are you Chang'an Dandy Meng Ziqian?" Li An was not to be outdone.

At this time, there was no one in the Shengle Building. Most of the people who had just filled the room had fled, and Li An did not stop them. After all, these people had nothing to do with this incident. They could leave if they wanted. What surprised Li An was that there were still a few people left.

Li An didn't know whether these people were enemies or friends, so he didn't care about them. He just watched the show if he wanted. He was here to establish his authority this time. What's the point of not having an audience.

When Meng Ziqian heard Li An calling him by his first name, anger appeared on his face: "Tian Shehan, you actually dare to call me by my first name. I think you really don't want to live anymore."

"Isn't it just for people to call you names? You think you are a nobleman of the Tian family. You are wrong. You are just a commoner of the Tang Dynasty like me. There is no fundamental difference between the two of us. But you actually dare to violate the Tang Dynasty." Do you know the law of the Tang Dynasty? As long as your crime is proven, you will be exiled for three thousand miles."

"Pfft hahahaha!" Suddenly, Meng Ziqian leaned on the cushions in the carriage and laughed loudly. When the laughter ended, Meng Ziqian looked at Li An and said with a smile: "What you said as a farmer is really too much. Interesting, do you know who I am?

Will I be exiled three thousand miles?Do you know that the laws of the Tang Dynasty are used to restrain you peasants? Who am I? I am the legitimate son of the Meng family in Luoyang. Can the laws of the Tang Dynasty restrain me?
Now I tell you Li An, kneel down and kowtow to me immediately until I am satisfied, otherwise I will let you die here today. "

"Do you dare to override the laws of the Tang Dynasty?" Li An looked at Meng Ziqian word by word and asked. At this time, Li An wanted to force out Meng Ziqian's arrogance and ignorance. As long as he said that he was above the laws of the Tang Dynasty, Based on the laws of the Tang Dynasty, Li An had the confidence to kill the opponent in the name of safeguarding the laws of the Tang Dynasty.

But what I want to remind you here is that Li An is gambling. Li Shimin is reluctant to kill him because he gave Li Shimin a lot of money. However, Li An's move is wrong. His behavior today is completely a kind of modern man's confusion. Performance.

According to real logic, Li An should directly give Liu Zhizhi and Liu Xiaoxiao's sisters to Meng Ziqian, and never confront Meng Ziqian, because Li An's chance of winning is actually very slim.

The aristocratic families of the Tang Dynasty are really too powerful. Even Li Shimin has to stay away. Li An directly confronts them. That is a very irrational behavior. But Li An used to be a soldier. A soldier of that country, right? People have a deep desire to protect themselves.

These soldiers call themselves junior soldiers, saying that they are from the common people, and their existence is to protect the common people. Therefore, facing Liu Zhizhi and Liu Xiaoxiao, Li An cannot give up on them in his heart. Maybe this is not right. Choice, but this is Li An's choice based on his heart.

Sometimes, the inner heart is really unstoppable, which is why many people do stupid things. A firefighter will give his oxygen mask to the people and die himself, because his survival value is obviously greater.

Also, in order to save one person, an elite special team was lost. It was obvious that they could not save him, so why should he save him?
Because this is the true intention of the special forces. They exist to protect civilians. There is no real right or wrong, only their own true intentions.

"Haha...!" Meng Ziqian laughed loudly. He looked at Li An, as if he had already seen Li An clearly. He looked at Li An playfully and said: "I know you want me to say If you speak against the laws of the Tang Dynasty, you will find an excuse for yourself and want to use the power of the court to destroy yourself, but you are too naive.

Don’t even think about it. It’s not the first day that I, Meng Ziqian, committed evil in Chang’an City. If the laws of the Tang Dynasty were really useful to me, I would have died countless times. But do you think I’m okay now?

A man who lives in the fields is a man who lives in the fields. He thinks that he is a little smart and can make some money. You think that you can compare with people from aristocratic families like ours. You are simply ignorant and fearless.

Today, I, Meng Ziqian, am here to tell you, yes. I, Meng Ziqian, am above the laws of the Tang Dynasty. I just want to drive out the people and kill them all. So what, who dares to kill me? "

Meng Ziqian looked at Li An and glared, like a dying beast, wanting to kill with one blow.
