Chapter 534: The Emperor's Mode of Watching the Drama
Jiang Chengzi was unhurried, bowed to Li Shimin, and then said: "Back to Your Majesty, the matter of the King of Shu and the matter that I came to the palace to tell are one thing. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Therefore, I must ask what the king of Shu has committed. β
"Oh, you tell yourself about your military situation, and the King of Shu has his own decision. Li Shimin said loudly, unconsciously, his voice was slightly happy.
He had an inexplicable love for this girl. He felt that the arrival of this girl had taken a turn for the better. As a father, this must be a joyful thing, as a king, he knew the twists and turns of the impeachment of the king of Shu before, but the Manchu civil and military seemed to be blind, and no one came to solve this dilemma for him. Moreover, he even suspected that the assassination of the king of Shu was an extension of the impeachment incident.
These days, he has been procrastinating again and again, but the ministers have repeatedly persecuted him with dignity, and he has a feeling that he can't resist. Now, Wei Zheng, who has never expressed his position, has come to this matter in person, and he is annoyed.
A few days ago, he went to see Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu is still worshipping the Buddha, her eyebrows are peaceful.
He sat there for a long time, drank a cup of vegetarian tea, and then said, "Ke'er's businessβ"
"You are his father, you are the king of a country, and I believe that you have your own decisions. Concubine Shu interrupted him.
He frowned, sighed, and asked, "Aren't you worried?"
Concubine Shu still had a calm eyebrow and said, "Each has its own blessings." β
He felt that Concubine Shu was too cold, but Concubine Shu suddenly asked, "What does Your Majesty think of this tea?"
"Good tea. The entrance is sweet and mellow, which is more elegant than boiling tea. He said.
"This is a new tea made in Kaichun, which was personally fried by Yang's Azhi and sent to the palace by Yang Chu. This is Ke'er's blessing. She said slowly, her long eyebrows raised slightly, and a pair of beautiful eyes looked at her.
Li Shimin only felt stunned, Concubine Shu had never looked at him like this since she married him. He even remembered the moment when she first saw her at Hongnong Yang and she looked back at him.
"I have never begged Your Majesty for anything in my life. Now, Ke'er has been robbed like this, I don't ask Your Majesty to try this case from your father's point of view, but I ask Your Majesty not to try this case from the perspective of a king. All I want is the word 'fairness'. Concubine Shu said, bowed, and knelt down.
Li Shimin looked at the thin woman in front of him and knelt down, obviously so thin, but like a plum blossom with arrogance. As a princess of the dead country, her noble temperament has never been reduced by half a point, about because of the Buddha, or something else, she and him all these years are more like the Yiren standing on the other side, whether they follow it or follow it, they have nowhere to touch.
She was so far away from him, so far away that he felt that she had never liked him at all. It's just because of the impermanence of the world and the lack of resistance to power that he became his concubine.
He has always been angry about this, so after entering Chang'an, he rarely went to see her.
Now, because of Ke'er's business, he came to see her. Originally, I thought she would cry and beg him, or fall in front of him and whisper. However, she is not like that.
She knelt down and begged him, and what she said made him feel so annoying.
"Am I not a father in your heart?" he asked, suppressing his anger.
Concubine Shu still knelt long, lowered her eyes and whispered, "I didn't mean that. You are the king of the world, and you must put the country first. If it is only Ke'er's father who is trying to try it, how can there be any reason why the father does not love the child? Therefore, he will definitely protect Ke'er. This is not good for the court and not for Your Majesty. β
"You're virtuous. Oh, can't I be a father?" he sarcastically separated her, separating the two with the word "I" in life.
"Your Majesty has misunderstood me. I am Ke'er's mother, and I know what my own child is like. He has little interest in Jiangshan Sheji. I'm not afraid of a fair trial. I'm afraid that Your Majesty, for the sake of the stability of the Tang Dynasty, should consider getting rid of my Ke'er as a king. Concubine Shu's tone was still not salty.
"You are presumptuous. Enraged, he slammed his teacup on the bluestone pillar, and the shattered porcelain splattered everywhere.
He had never been so angry in all these years. He admonishes himself all the time: You are a generation of kings, and when you are angry, you can easily lose your judgment. The king of a country makes a mistake in making a decision, which affects all the people in the world. But this concubine alone can make him angry easily.
"Your Majesty is angry. She said those four words were so annoying.
"Do you know your Ke'er? Do you know that he secretly cultivates power? Do you know that he himself wore a mask, assumed the name Ah Nian, and personally killed the enemy on the battlefield? Do you know that his subordinates are all top masters? Do you know that the royal family of Tuhun Valley is about to be wiped out by his subordinates?" he shouted loudly.
He thought that Concubine Shu would be surprised, but unexpectedly, Concubine Shu was still as calm as ever, and said slowly: "The people around us who are eyeing our mother and son are not only the old department of your Qin Palace, but also those who have made great achievements in the court, not to mention the alliance of famous families and nobles. Ke'er and I always have to live, and we can't be fish to be slaughtered. β
"With me, how can you let others slaughter you?" he felt that there was nowhere to release his anger.
Concubine Shu suddenly raised her eyes and looked directly at him, her eyes were full of contempt: "Your Majesty, how many times have I encountered life and death, don't you know? Ke'er was the sickest time, you don't know what the reason is? It was someone who stabbed him and pushed him into the water. Taiyuan water in February. Your Majesty, you never knew, did you?"
"What?" Li Shimin was really shocked. He knew that Li Ke had been seriously ill when he was just able to walk. But at that time, he was out with his troops, running around, and had no time to take care of it, but he didn't expect it to be such an inside story.
"Your Majesty doesn't know. I don't want to say it, I'm not sure who did it, there are too many people who want my mother and son to die. When I was pregnant with Ke'er, someone killed me, if it weren't for Qin Shubao and his wife, Ke'er and I would have been gone. Your Majesty, in such a situation as my mother and son, what's wrong with cultivating a little of your own guard to protect yourself?" Concubine Shu was no longer calm, her words were aggressive.
Li Shimin frowned, wanting to explain, but couldn't explain. For so many years, he thought that he had given her shelter so that she could live without food and clothing as a princess of a dead country. However, he didn't expect him to bring her so much hurt and suffering.
"If Your Majesty thinks that cultivating people who protect him is to covet the emperor's throne, it will shake the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. I didn't say it today. Your Majesty will be a good king for generations. Concubine Shu continued.
Li Shimin sighed and said, "Concubine Shu, do you think I don't like Ke'er? I was besieged by Wang Shichong, and it was Ke'er who ordered someone to come and save me. I broke Dou Jiande, and I also have the merit of Ke'er. At that time, I didn't know that Ke'er had been so seriously injured, but I felt that Ke'er was weaker, coughed from time to time, and knelt down for it. He is my child, and what he has done when he goes to the Yang clan is not only for himself, but also for himself, and has taken advantage of the situation to severely damage those alliances who think of themselves as very high and disagreeing. This is all for the Tang Dynasty. β
"Since Your Majesty knows what Ke'er has done this time, you know how many people are in the court. Now, not only are the old departments of the Qin Wangfu afraid that he will threaten the status of the crown prince, but those famous families also hold a grudge against him. He is for the Tang Dynasty and His Majesty, and he has offended the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. Now, I only ask Your Majesty not to forget the word fairness when the trial is conducted. Your Majestyβ" Concubine Shu was still narrating before, but when she said this, she hid her face and wept lowly.
He panicked. For so many years, he had seen Concubine Shu cry once, and that was when Emperor Sui was killed. At that time, she was with him, and when she heard someone come to tell him that Emperor Sui was killed by Yu Wenhua, she cried at that time. He hugged her into his arms and whispered, "Don't be afraid, you still have me." In the future, I will protect you. β
Since then, Concubine Shu has stopped crying, she doesn't smile much, and she is also light to him. He was tired of fighting, and he didn't want to see her. Because when I saw her like that, I couldn't help but want to lose my temper.
She always has the ability to make him angry. So, he left her alone with the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha, and when she was tired and annoyed, she also went to the queen's place or other concubines.
Over time, there was nothing to do with her or Ke'er, and he stopped coming to her.
Now, as soon as she cries, he panics. It turned out that she was not so distracted.
Li Shimin gently hugged her into his arms and whispered, "Don't cry." I promise you, I will do my best to protect Ke'er. I am not only a king, but also a father. β
"I'm afraid there aren't many people who can help Ke'er now. In addition to the horse Yang Shidao, there is only Yang Gongren in the Hongnong Yang family. But Yang Gongren is very deep in the city, and his interests are extremely profound. Moreover, the interior of the Hongnong Yang family is very complicated, and it has been controlled by the old lady over the years, and the Guanwang family is actually like the Xiao family. In addition, why did Xiao Shi, the side concubine in Ke'er's mansion, marry Ke'er. Your Majesty knows better than me that now Ke'er has completely offended the Lanling Xiao family. Then Concubine Xiao is also an outcast. It is difficult to guarantee that the Xiao family will not fall into the ground. This Manchu Dynasty civil and military, I can't find one, one who can help Ke'er. Concubine Shu began to cry as she analyzed.
"Don't panic. He hugged her tighter, "I have sent someone to Hongnong Yang to understand the situation, and I have also sent someone to secretly inquire about the generals of the three roads to inquire about the situation." β
"Your Majesty, Ke'er is my life!" she cried so much that the pear blossoms rained, and her bun fell apart.
He lowered his head and kissed her forehead lightly, and whispered, "No matter what, I promise you to keep Ke'er." β
Concubine Shu raised her eyes to look at him, tears glistened in her eyes, she bit her lip and pleaded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Ke'er really has no intention of being in the world, you have to believe Ke'er." He wrote a letter to the defenders of the three roads privately, and there must have been a hundred thousand urgent matters. β
"Yes, I believe him. He hugged Concubine Shu tightly in his arms.
"The background of the Yang family's six rooms, presumably His Majesty also knows. Na Azhi has done things properly many times, and the family wants to engage in water conservancy, research on agriculture, and pharmacopoeia. This time, I also ask Your Majesty to be lenient with that child. Concubine Shu said again.
Li Shimin himself was hit hard in the Hongnong Yang Clan's Famous Sect Alliance, and this time, he had a good impression of the Yang Family's Sixth Room, and he was not as hostile to Na Azhi as before. When Concubine Shu talked about it this time, he took the opportunity to quip: "When others look at their daughter-in-law, they are picky in every way. You're good, you haven't seen it yet, and you already like it. β
"Your Majesty, I'm here to take matters into account. Ke'er told me about meeting an immortal in a dream, that is, when he was stabbed and thrown into the water in Taiyuan that year and was rescued. He said that he was a beautiful sister who always protected him. Before, I thought it was just a dream. Later, seeing that Ke'er acted more and more differently, some strange things were also figured out. And I believed. Later, you fought Wang Shichong in Luoyang. Ke'er went out for a few days, and when she came back, she was depressed, and threw herself into my arms and said that the fairy had committed the taboo of the fairy mountain because of her protection of him, and was stripped of her immortal status and thrown into the mortal world. Ke'er also said clearly that she supported Hongnong Yang's family, and also said the eight characters of her birthday. At that time, the status of Ke'er and I was precarious, and the inside of the Hongnong Yang clan was not as good as it seemed. The old lady is a member of the Xiao family, and the Xiao family is becoming more and more powerful. I'm afraid of variables, so I don't dare to let Ke'er do it willfully. Concubine Shu said slowly.
"So, you already knew that Ke'er's benefactor was in the Hongnong Yang clan, and you knew who it was?" asked Li Shimin in surprise.
Concubine Shu shook her head and said, "Hongnong Yang's daughter's birthday post is extraordinary, and others cannot record it. Moreover, there are many Yang daughters born on the same day, and it is not certain. But if you look for it at the time, you can find it. However, His Majesty was jealous of others at that time, and Ke'er and I did not dare to act on the sidelines, for fear of implicating Your Majesty. β
Li Shimin sighed and said, "Over the years, I said that your heart is long of stone, and you all care about my life and death. But regardless of it, there is so much suffering inside. β
"Your Majesty, don't say this. You are my husband and family, and this is how it should be. Concubine Shu lowered her eyes to his chest.
He saw her long eyelashes rise and fall, and secretly resolved in his heart: he must protect Ke'er. If he can't even protect his own children, even loyal ministers and good generals, this emperor doesn't do it.
But it's one thing to make up your mind, it's another to be tricky to deal with. Despite Yang's prophecy, water conservancy projects and food hoarding had already begun, but there was still a major drought in some places. In addition, the Liang division colluded with the Turks and was ready to move in the north. He was so busy that there was no progress in the news sent back by the people sent out to investigate the impeachment of the King of Shu. And the Manchu Dynasty civil and military did not seem to want to help him solve his urgent needs.
In Li Ke's matter, he struggled to hold on. Now, Uncle Qin, who has been ill for a long time, came to the court and brought Yang's Azhi. This Yang Azhi is just a girl, but look at her words and deeds, neither humble nor arrogant, and in the face of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, there is no timidity at all. The gestures are all famous etiquette, what is said and what is said is clear.
Li Shimin saw the girl's calm and determined expression, and heard her words full of attack and deep meaning, he knew that Ke'er's affairs must have taken a turn for the better. Therefore, he suddenly felt relaxed and happy, and thought to himself: sure enough, Ke'er lived up to his expectations and could find an opportunity for the Jedi to fight back in the face of adversity.
Yes, he believes that it must be an opportunity for the Jedi to fight back, and this girl will come to the temple. Although he had never seen this girl, he had several indirect confrontations, but in fact, this girl had the winning side.
Therefore, when he talked to this girl, he really wanted to see what kind of variables this ten-year-old girl who dared to go directly to the palace to face the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs would bring to this dilemma.
Therefore, he dropped the sentence that seemed not salty or indifferent, but was actually completely a fuse, and automatically entered the state of watching the play. He wants to see how much energy this girl has, and how she tears the civil and military of the dynasty with her hands.
