Chapter 8: The Court (1)
"Knock knock!"
"Knock knock!"
"Who!" Inside the door, a lazy voice came from with. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Knock knock!" Li Chengqian frowned slightly, but did not answer, and continued to knock on the door.
"Wait!" Inside the room, Gong Tong, who was sitting on the bed, rubbed his head vigorously, not remembering what happened afterwards at all!
First drunk, splitting headache.
Turn over and get up.
One step and three shakes, stumbling, he finally moved to the table. I wanted to take a sip of water, but I found a stack of new clothes on the table, and a mask on the clothes. A tin mask, a silver-white mask. was stunned for a moment, and in an instant, Justice understood his intentions. Put on a mask, change into new clothes, tidy up a little, and open the door fairly.
Outside the door, a handsome young man with clear eyebrows happened to raise his head.
It was their first meeting.
The young man outside the door is handsome and handsome, with sharp edges and corners, looking like Li Shimin, giving people a sense of a righteous man and a gentleman. The dark pupils were full of doubt, showing the curiosity of his thirteen or fourteen years old; The delicate little face smiled, showing its elegance; Clear voice......
"Childe?" Xu is the first time that someone dares to stare at himself like this, Li Chengqian blushed a little, and hurriedly reminded him.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Although he has some clues, he doesn't dare to speculate wildly, after all, in this palace that needs to be done step by step, his unintentional words in public may be the best weapon for others to attack others. Although I don't care about it, if I bring disaster to others, it is my own fault!
"Li Chengqian of Wudong Palace, dare to ask what the son is called?" Li Chengqian actually bowed slightly, and asked with a pleasant face.
The feeling of fairness is a little bad, and he said in a dumb voice, "Let me sell it down!" ”
"Then, son, please go--my father and the emperor called us to see him in front of the palace" Li Chengqian's eyes flashed with some doubts, but he still raised his arm to invite. And at this time, the corners of Gongdao's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart: Sure enough, Li Er will not let go of any opportunity to rectify himself! That's it, just don't talk about big things, anyway, it's just a collaborator, and you can't ask too much.
The two walked, thinking fairly but not without malice.
"Does the prince know a person named Chengxin?" At this time, the prince of the Tang Dynasty should still be promising, and he did not have any bad habits. However, for the sake of insurance, justice is still cautious to ask.
"Satisfied? I haven't heard of it" Li Chengqian thought for a while, but still shook his head, "What, this person knows the son?" ”
"I don't know! I don't know! Justice waved his hand again and again to deny: Don't be kidding, I'm looking for her, not him.
"So, what about Li Yuanchang?" Justice quickly asked another question.
"Childe is talking about King Lu?" Li Chengqian frowned slightly and hesitated.
"Hmmm! King Lu! Justice rolled his eyes and nodded yes.
"That's the emperor's uncle, but he didn't have a deep friendship with Chengqian" Although he was puzzled, Li Chengqian still answered patiently.
"That's right" Gong Dao squinted slightly, looking at the temple door in front of him, "Your Highness, is this it?" ”
"Yes!" Li Chengqian pressed the urge to ask what was going on and brought justice into the Taiji Palace.
The early dynasty had not yet begun, so Li Chengqian went straight to bring justice into the hall, and he was a little sluggish, but he still introduced this prince to the seat beside him. completely ignored other strange eyes, and even the inquiring gaze from his uncle and eldest grandson Wuji pretended not to see it. The eldest grandson Wuji, who was ignored, just narrowed his eyes slightly, and then smiled happily again, as if nothing had happened. When the others saw Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and the others all squinted and had no opinions, although they had doubts, they didn't ask.
Not long after, Li Shimin walked up in a yellow robe and sat down.
"See you in the Hundred Officials!" As always, a sharp voice begins.
A group of people stood up and gave Li Shimin a very neat gesture, "Weichen, see Your Majesty!" With that, he sat down again.
And fairness naturally sat down and fully did his duty to make soy sauce.
"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have anything to do?" Everything was stable, but it was Li Shimin who opened his mouth.
"The minister has a book to play!" A young official bore the brunt of the attack, and came out with the voice, holding a notebook in his hand.
The attendant walked down to the hall skillfully and quickly to take it, and immediately presented it.
Li Shimin opened the fold, his eyes swept quickly, the corners of his mouth were slightly curled, and his face suddenly changed again, and he looked annoyed and angry. Viciously threw the piece in his hand to His Highness: "Ma Zhou, are you making me unfilial?" ”
"Wechen didn't dare, Wechen just told the truth" Although this suddenly appeared on his desk last night, he also went to the three provinces to confirm that it was true. Since what is said is true, then I have the obligation to write and persuade him! Only in this way can we live up to the grace of His Majesty's knowledge!
"You!" Li Shimin's eyebrows were solemn, and there was a hint of sternness in his tone: "Ma Zhou, do you know that the Daming Palace that will be built was requested by the emperor yesterday - so far the emperor only has such a request, how can I not satisfy his old man!" ”
"The minister thinks that I was built at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and all industries are waiting to be developed, and the people are still not rich, so we should give priority to the development of national strength, and wait until the national strength is more than enough in the future, and it is not too late to build a palace to do filial piety."
"And the Emperor will understand!"
"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks it's inappropriate!" At this time, it seemed that it had been discussed, and Du Ruhui opened his mouth.
"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks so!" Fang Xuanling also followed.
"The ministers seconded it!" Seeing Fang Du and the others speak, a group of ministers also knew where to go at this time.
"You guys!" Seeing this, Li Shimin changed color: "You guys! ”
However, he gritted his teeth and stared at the ministers who were bent over for a long time, glancing angrily at the ministers who were bent over, and finally had to compromise, "Okay! The construction of the palace is suspended, and it will be discussed in the future! ”
It was a very unwilling look, but there seemed to be a smile in the corner of his eyes.
"Guys, do you still have a song?" Li Shimin also lost his temper, and his calm face was obviously unhappy!
"Your Majesty, the head of Da'an Palace has something to do!" Outside the palace, the guards on duty went to the palace to make a report.
"Please!" Li Shimin frowned, swept over the people who were buried in their heads, and snorted coldly, but he still had to order him to come in.
"Pass on the emperor's words!" The chief steward walked into the hall quickly, and without greeting him, he spoke directly in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Li Shimin's brows furrowed even tighter! Although his face was unhappy, Li Shimin still stood up, bowed his body, and listened respectfully.
When the ministers saw that the emperor was honestly standing up and listening, they naturally didn't dare to sit anymore, so they stood up one after another, turned sideways to face the comers, and bowed to each other.
"Pass on the emperor's words!" Seeing that everyone entered the role, the manager cleared his throat and finally opened his mouth, "My son and the people listen to the order: in the ninth year of Wude, the late abolished prince Xi Wang Li Jiancheng and Chao Wang Li Yuanji rebelled!" The king of Qin was forced to be rehabilitated, and finally punished the rebel son Jiancheng and Yuan Ji. I had no intention of blaming his wife and son, how could I bear the heavens and not tolerate people, and the two palaces of Xi and Chao were taken advantage of by the bold old enemies to set fire! As a result, none of my grandchildren survived, and I sent the white-haired people to the black-haired people! I was physically and mentally traumatized, and had no choice but to retreat to Da'an Palace, and never asked about political affairs. The day before yesterday, I was very excited when I heard that my grandson and the son of Jiancheng asked to see me. Recruit people into the palace, and suddenly be kind! Ask about childhood anecdotes, and ask about the appearance of the Wang couple again, and there is no mistake! Blood recognizes relatives, and blood is also compatible! Finally confirmed that what this son said was true! Inform my son today that I intend to be the head of my Li royal family! Do you think so? ”
In the main hall, Li Shimin had been listening, but his face became more gloomy with the voice of the chief manager, and he almost wanted to wring out the water, but there was no squeak when the sound ended.
Your Highness, the ministers with different expressions also suddenly quieted down. Suddenly, the hall was silent, and the ministers glanced at the gloomy face of the person above, and they didn't dare to make any sound, lest they touch the moldy head. Outside the hall, the sound of the cold wind can be heard clearly.
As for the real big heads, they also have different looks. The decisive Du Ruhui narrowed his eyes and his face remained unchanged, but the scheming eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling did not have that indifference, their expressions became slightly ugly, they looked up at Li Shimin, and then buried their heads so that no one could see their faces.
And Li Ji, Cheng Biting Jin, Hou Junji and other military bigwigs are there, their faces do not change, they squint one by one, showing an attitude - we don't get involved in the emperor's family affairs, we just do it again when we need it, anyway, it's the matter of the one above, just wait for the order.
and His Royal Highness's crown prince Li Chengqian, his face was flushed with excitement, and his body was trembling, fidgeting as if there was something under his buttocks! At this time, Ma Zhou frowned slightly, and there was a feeling that he had been used.
"What do you think?" After a long time, Li Shimin broke the deadlock and slowly spoke with a calm face.
"Your Majesty! I don't think so! The slightly chubby eldest grandson Wuji finally couldn't sit still, and hurriedly stood up first.
"Huh? Why? As if he had no intention, but his expression was deeply convinced, Li Shimin hooked the corners of his mouth and said slowly.
"The minister also knows a little about the events of the year, so the minister is a little puzzled, and wants to ask His Royal Highness Chengdao, hoping that His Majesty agrees!" Seeing this, the eldest grandson fox's eyes flashed, and he said loudly.
"Quasi-play! Preach the truth! Li Shimin squinted his eyes and gritted his teeth.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Chengdao has already entered the palace with His Royal Highness the Prince!" The head of Da'an Palace, who had been waiting, bowed down and replied.
Hearing this, Li Chengqian, who was the first to react, suddenly changed his face, first with joy and then immediately with a straight face, turned around and gritted his teeth and stared viciously at the masked man he brought with him!
And the ministers also changed color.
The eldest grandson Wuji immediately turned around, glanced coldly at the person beside Li Chengqian, and then squinted his eyes and flashed a trace of cruelty.
As for Li Shimin, who had not yet sat down above, he also hummed and laughed, "Cheng Qian, which one did you bring to the palace?" ”
looked at Li Chengqian, but he didn't seem to see him, as if he was air.
"Back to Your Majesty, it's the little nephew!" Justice stood up slowly, but gave a very serious look to the one above: This is also a test!
The reason why he didn't inform himself in advance was because he wanted to see if he had any other capital to cooperate with him besides knowing about the afterlife!
"Wuji-" Li Shimin turned to the head Sun Wuji and secretly gave a look.
"The minister has overstepped!" The eldest grandson Wuji comprehended, turned to justice, and asked with a happy smile, "The old minister has a question, I would like to ask this His Royal Highness Chengdao!" ”
"Your Highness, do you know who those enemies were back then?" Before he had time to react, the old fox's squinting eyes flashed with a gleam!
