Just leave, never delay, such a habit was thoroughly implemented after becoming the emperor. Because after every busy review, Li Shimin found that there would always be some urgent documents sent to his desk from time to time. A dignified emperor, even a period of rest, has to play tricks to get it.

I went to the Liangyi Hall first, and brought the eldest grandson, since I went to the East Palace to see, how could I go with the emperor and queen.

You don't need to go through the main gate, as long as you pass through the Tongxun Gate, you can directly enter the East Palace.

Since learning that the crown prince was actually entangled with the organization of eunuchs and palace maids in the palace, Li Shimin had a little bit of thought about his son to take the school examination.

In the end, the country of the Tang Dynasty still has to be passed on to the prince, but before it is handed over, Li Gang is responsible for what the prince is taught to be, and he, as a father, is equally responsible.

The emperor and empress entered the East Palace and almost scared the guards, eunuchs, and palace maids in the East Palace to death. Seeing a eunuch turning backwards from a distance, his steps hurried, Li Shimin stretched out his fingers.

A young eunuch who had been following the emperor and queen rushed out like a cheetah, and when the emperor and queen walked over, the eunuch who wanted to report the news had already been subdued.

"Hmph, dog minion, I still want to report the news, pass the order, don't inform the prince, whoever dares to talk too much will break his legs!"

Because it was a sudden attack, Li Shimin really wanted to see what a real East Palace looked like. Since Li Gang entered the East Palace and the eldest grandson Baoqing was also transferred, his understanding of the East Palace only stopped at the reports of a few eunuchs who were inserted. If these eunuchs were also members of the mysterious organization, then their reports would have little credibility.

Tongxun Gate is on the line of Mingde Gate, and soon after entering the East Palace, the emperor and queen walked in front of Mingde Gate.

Since the opening of the Chongwen Pavilion, the land in front of the Mingde Gate has been paved with two martial arts arenas, which are divided into two halves by the Central Avenue.

Without looking at the captured eunuch, Li Shimin asked, "What is the prince doing with these two martial arts arenas?" ”

The eunuch Lao Zhou, who is also the old man of the East Palace, heard the emperor's question, and immediately replied: "Back to Your Majesty, there was originally only one piece for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to use for martial arts, but after the Chongwen Hall opened, it became two large pieces. Now it is common for the students of the Chongwen Pavilion to enter the East Palace when the East Gate is opened, and to follow His Highness to practice martial arts. ”

Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction, those who could be elected to the Chongwen Pavilion were his closest ministers. Unlike ordinary children of the nobility, he didn't want the next generation of these people to become a gentleman, and in any case, the court needed these next generations to support the main framework. The prince can take these people to go up together, it's quite smart.

Advancing a few steps and walking to the wooden stake where Li Chengqian practiced his sword, Li Shimin reached out and touched the stake.

The current wooden stake is not the thick arm of the original, but a real model made of iron and wood according to the proportions of a real person, and as long as the outside is covered with a layer of leather armor, it is no different from a real person.

The leather armor has been exposed to the sun and rain, and it can be seen to be old, but there are no other scars on it except for a piece on the chest. Under the leather armor, clear traces can be seen in the throat and wrists of the wooden man. Being able to leave such clear traces on the iron and wood shows that the prince did work hard when he was practicing martial arts.

Nodding with satisfaction again, Li Shimin couldn't help but put his hands behind his back and continued to go deep into the East Palace.

has been married for many years, how can the eldest grandson not know that the husband's heart is very happy now. Now, he has sat at the top of the world, and the only thing that can make him look forward to more at home is the prince's diligence.

Along the way, as long as he met the eunuch palace maid, Li Shimin would let the eunuch with extraordinary skills catch him and prevent them from ventilating and reporting the news.

After passing through the Lizheng Hall but not entering, the emperor led a large group of people to the Chongren Palace, as long as the Chongren Hall passed, it was the kitchen and garden of the East Palace.

The arrival of the emperor and empress made the kitchen cook tremble on both legs. Because, he is stealing roast sheep.

Since the appearance of the Chongwen Pavilion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Master Li usually eat breakfast and lunch in the canteen, and only need him to do it at dinner.

Two days ago, the prince didn't know what to smoke and went crazy, and suddenly named him to eat roast whole sheep. As the old cook of the imperial dining room, he naturally tried his best to perfectly create a "muddy sheep sudden". As a result, the prince just took a bite and kicked him.

They all said that they wanted to eat mutton, and what did they do with a big goose roasted in the belly of the sheep!

The cook who was kicked for no reason was naturally not convinced, although his master's mouth was tricky, but he was also dignified as a cook, so when he didn't need to go to Chongwen Hall to help cook, he shrank in the kitchen of the East Palace, trying his best to figure out how to roast mutton.

However, coincidentally, just when he finished roasting the sheep and tasted it, he was caught by the emperor and queen.

There was no need to explain, there was no time to explain at this time, the cook could only kneel down straight, and sweat soaked his back for a moment.

But fortunately, the emperor was in a good mood today, and he didn't hit the board directly, but asked the reason.

After learning the cause and effect, the cook escaped.

After robbing a leg of mutton, Li Shimin ate while walking without style. The roast leg of lamb stained with spices does not have a fishy smell, and it tastes charred on the outside and tender on the inside, which is not bad.

"Your Majesty, although Cheng Qian is the crown prince, is he too spoiled to be such a picky eater? Does the concubine have to be reprimanded? ”

Seeing that the emperor did not speak, the eldest grandson could only whisper his opinions.

If she reprimands, the prince will be reprimanded at most, but if it reaches the ears of the official, it will inevitably happen before. Being in the royal family, as long as it has a little bit to do with "luxury" and "waste", it is a big accident.

Li Shimin chewed on the leg of mutton and said nonchalantly: "If Cheng Qian still needs money from the inner government to supply it now, it will naturally be dangerous, but the money in the East Palace is all earned by himself." Although it is related to businessmen and is not in line with the system, as long as they are self-reliant, no one wants to be impeached for no reason. Because of such impeachment, at most, it will be too much, and the reason is unreasonable, and it cannot pose a threat to the prince. ”

While talking, the emperor and queen walked into the back garden of the East Palace.

It is said to be a garden, but there are not many flowers in sight, and many places where flowers should have been planted have been reclaimed into vegetable gardens.

There are not many seedlings in the field, but the leeks and the like in the East Palace have already grown.

Seeing the thriving vegetable garden, the eldest grandson smiled and said, "Unexpectedly, there are slaves in the East Palace who are good at growing vegetables, and this vegetable garden is well maintained." ”

Whether it is a field for growing leeks or a field for planting onions and cabbage, they are all well cared for, and not a single weed can be seen.

The palace maid Mao Qi now has her own name - Purple Sparrow. Hearing the queen's words, she couldn't help but say: "Niangniang, forgive the slave and maid for being presumptuous, this piece of land is not taken care of by the palace maids and eunuchs, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Li Taishi personally served, and after the Chongwen Pavilion was opened, there was more Mr. Yu." Whether it is watering or weeding, the prince does not pretend to others. "The starter...

Li Shimin took a bite of the leg of mutton, pointed at the vegetable with the leg of mutton bone and said: "I remembered that Liu Zhengdao, the commander I sent to the East Palace before, was driven out of the East Palace because the prince wanted to grow vegetables and obstructed it. Although it is not in accordance with the etiquette system, the prince's willingness to do agricultural work should be praised. Come on, cut off these leeks that grow. I like the dumplings with leeks and eggs very much, and I ordered the imperial dining room to make them tonight. ”

Seeing the people brought by the emperor cutting leeks in the leek field, the eunuchs and palace maids in the East Palace couldn't bear it. I all know that the prince is looking forward to these leeks growing taller, but I didn't expect to be plagued by His Majesty the Emperor today.

Li Shimin noticed their expressions, but he didn't care. Lao Tzu got some of his son's things, which seemed to him to be a matter of course.

After cutting the leeks, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction, threw the remaining lamb leg bones into the arms of a eunuch, and turned around the Cheng'en Palace, intending to enter the Chongwen Pavilion from the direction of Yiqiu Palace.

It's class time, and everyone is in the classroom. The emperor who entered the Chongwen Pavilion stood outside the door and listened to Yu Shinan's homework for a while, I don't know what seconds I heard, anyway, the curvature of the corners of my mouth was even greater.

did not disturb Yu Shinan's class, and the emperor and queen led a large team of men and horses to kill directly to the Lizheng Palace.

Since the prince didn't go to class, he should be in his study at this time.

....

Li Chengqian didn't know that his East Palace had been infiltrated by his father, and he was sitting behind his desk at this time and was furious.

"Idiot! When did Lone allow such a vigorous military training? Do you know that the so-called physical fitness is to force the body to repair and strengthen after causing damage to a person's body. The training plan formulated by Gu is already the limit, and even if it is strengthened, it needs to be gradual. The result? You actually doubled it on top of that? Now in the Taiping period, more than 20 soldiers have been injured and wounded, how can you tell Gu to explain this matter to them? Because of quick success? ”

Yu Tai, who was yelled at by the prince, fell to one knee, bowed his head and said nothing.

During his recent military training, he found that many soldiers still had a lot of spare strength after completing some projects. Therefore, he simply was ruthless and directly increased the amount of basic training by two times.

But who would have thought that this doubling would cause a big problem. More than two dozen soldiers could not keep up with the sudden increase in training intensity, strained their bodies, and did not recover after several days.

Yu Tai also knew that he was good at doing this by himself, so he didn't say a word.

"Okay, okay, what's the matter, as for forcing Yu Tai like this?"

Hearing the sound from outside the door, Li Chengqian's ass jumped up as if it had been pierced with nails. And Yu Tai didn't get up, but simply knelt in a different direction.

The door of the study was pushed open, and the palace maids and eunuchs were released.

Li Shimin and the eldest grandson walked into the study accompanied by each other, and walked around the East Palace today, for the eldest grandson who was already pregnant with Liujia, it was not easy, and when he arrived here, he already needed the emperor to reach out and support him.

Seeing the sweat on his mother's forehead, Li Chengqian hurriedly pushed the chair over and asked her to sit down.

After serving tea, Li Chengqian said to Li Shimin: "Father, the son is not angry with Yu Tai's transgression, but his attitude. The soldiers led by the prince were all living people, not cattle. Cattle will be tired to death if they work too much, let alone people. This bastard doesn't try it himself, he just gives the order, it's already stupid. More than 20 people have muscle strain, and I am afraid that it will not be good to recuperate for a while. In this way, it will definitely cause psychological pressure on the rest of the soldiers. ”

Li Shimin didn't know what psychological pressure was, but when he saw Yu Tai's blushing face, he couldn't help but plead for his former subordinates: "It's just a strain, who can't experience a soldier who has experienced a vicious battle?" Even if it's me, I've been strained no less than a hundred times. The most powerful time was the Battle of Tiger Prison Pass, when Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande's army was completely defeated, I dragged my tired body off the battlefield. After a good night's sleep, my whole body was sore, as if I had experienced torture, and many of the Xuanjia soldiers who rushed into battle with me even cried out in pain. Compared to these, the strain during training is nothing. ”

After speaking, Li Shimin patted Yu Tai on the shoulder and signaled that he could get out. He reached out again to take the tea handed by the queen and drained it in one go.

The Battle of Tiger Prison Pass can be said to be the most dangerous battle since the founding of the Tang Dynasty.

Although I learned a little about it in the TV series, this history is obviously distorted. Instead of fantasizing under false hints, it is better to ask the person directly about it.

Regardless of Yu Tai who went out, Li Chengqian also pushed a chair to the emperor's father, and asked with a smile: "Father, since you opened your mouth today, why don't you tell your son about the Tiger Prison Pass?" ”

The feeling of being longed for by his son is naturally cool and crooked, picking up the teapot and not pouring it out, Li Shimin blew directly into his mouth, and took a big sip before saying: "If you want to talk about Tiger Prison, you have to talk about Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande first." It's a pity that you were born a little later and couldn't go to the battlefield with me, only when you are really on the battlefield can you realize how dangerous that battle was..."

The emperor who tells a story with a teapot is no different from an ordinary storyteller. Because it is a personal experience, as long as you match the tone, you can vividly interpret the danger of the battle and the grief and anger of seeing the soldiers around you die.

Although it was the person concerned who was telling the story, listening to it, Li Chengqian couldn't help but draw a few black lines in his heart.

The story told by the emperor's father is clearly eroded by personal heroism. How many arrows can a quiver hold? From the beginning to the present, he has counted fifty or sixty arrows alone. The total number of enemy generals who died under the arrows was twenty or thirty.

Even if Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande were more diligent, there would not be so many generals!

As long as you look at the queen lady who is sipping tea behind her and desperately holding back her smile, you will know that the emperor's father is bragging.

Forget it, the desire to know the historical facts has been shattered, and as for the documents recorded by the military or something, it is estimated that there is not much credibility. Because, Niu Jinda will always talk about the number of enemies killed by Cheng Biting Jin. It seems that multiplying the merits of war by two, three, or four is a common problem of military generals.

This can also be understood, in ancient wars, the real victory with less has become a story handed down for respect, the rest of the battle, which one is not to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred?

Killing a hundred enemies and losing eighty self-inflicted losses will not look good when put on military merit.

It wasn't until the tea in the teapot was drunk that Li Shimin ended his story of killing all sides.
