Chen Zhengtai glanced at Li Shimin deeply, and then said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, this is something that the son will definitely bring." ”

Li Shimin sighed, and seemed to have a lot of emotion after experiencing this life and death.

He said faintly: "I thought that Zhang Liang was loyal to me and trusted him, but I didn't expect that he was so bold. At that time, he was holding a crossbow arrow, and when he pointed it at me, I thought he would take care of the righteousness of the monarch and the minister! At that moment, I was still thinking about whether I should forgive him and spare his life when he came to his senses and bowed his head at my feet. It wasn't until that arrow hit my heart that I knew he wanted to put me to death for a long time. What a lot of hatred this is, I used to think that I could distinguish between right and wrong, and I could see everything, but where I thought of it, it was actually nothing more than Erer. ”

Chen Zhengtai said: "Your Majesty, don't take it to heart, this Zhang Liang is an opportunist, this kind of person is not worthy of Your Majesty's attention." ”

Li Shimin bowed his head, as if after saying these words, he consumed a lot of his strength, so he said: "Okay, I'm tired, I want to rest." ”

Chen Zhengtai answered, and then asked Li Shimin to rest, while he sat aside, bored and casually reading a book.

When Li Chengqian had rested enough, and when he arrived at the secret room, Chen Zhengtai pulled Li Chengqian aside, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty's high fever has receded a lot, it seems that ...... This ghost gate is considered to have passed. ”

"Really?" Li Chengqian couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised: "Has the father woken up?" ”

Chen Zhengtai nodded: "Woke up once." ”

"Can you speak?" Li Chengqian's eyes became brighter and brighter.

Chen Zhengtai nodded again.

"Father must be anxious to see Lone." Li Chengqian said happily: "No, I'll go ...... now."

"No, no, no." Chen Zhengtai hurriedly grabbed him, waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty said, don't worry about him, at this moment, you should rest well, go to see hundreds of officials tomorrow, first stabilize the situation, after all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the prince of the country, how can you abandon the world?" ”

Li Chengqian frowned, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

He had imagined countless times that when his father woke up, anxious to see his son, but now it seemed that his father was much calmer than he had imagined.

At this time, Chen Zhengtai said again: "There is another thing, that is, Your Majesty hopes that his physical condition will not be leaked out, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will only treat him as if his life is still in danger." ”

"Okay, got it." Li Chengqian didn't ask much, then nodded and said, "Go to see the hundred officials tomorrow?" ”

Chen Zhengtai said: "Yes, I have to go to see the hundred officials tomorrow morning, so it is the duty of the prince of the prison country." ”

Li Chengqian looked at Chen Zhengtai and said with a little entanglement: "It's just ...... Hongu doesn't want to go...... Otherwise, you can go with Lone. ”

"This ......" Chen Zhengtai looked embarrassed: "I'm just a colt, and I went to see hundreds of officials with His Royal Highness the Prince, is this good?" ”

"There's nothing bad about it, you said it yourself, Gu Nai is the prince of the prison country, so naturally he can do whatever he wants." Li Chengqian straightened his waist and looked at Chen Zhengtai coldly and said: "Lone will issue an edict now, Chen Zhengtai, the commander of the horses, and go to the court tomorrow with Lone, if you dare not obey, immediately show your head to the public to set an example." ”

Chen Zhengtai: "......"

Prince, should your domineering be used in this kind of place?

…………

There is already a lot of talk between the DPRK and China.

His Majesty is seriously injured, life and death are unpredictable, and the prince can't hide, who still has the heart to act on their respective duties, and who is not nervous and worried?

Fortunately, Fang Xuanling was barely in charge of the overall situation, but he felt that he was about to lose it.

The music that suppressed business flew into the three provinces like snowflakes, piling up his table, and Fang Xuanling could only put these notes aside.

But the more you put these pieces on the shelf, the more it aroused the anger of the officials in the court.

After all, now that His Majesty and the crown prince have no news, and you, Fang Xuanling, are the prime ministers of the court, and it is your duty to deal with the opinions of hundreds of officials, but you choose to settle things and calm people, isn't this not doing your duty?

Thereupon...... In addition to the performance of suppressing business, there are even people who simply impeach Fang Xuanling by name.

Just kidding, the emperor and we dare to impeach, and we can't cure you Fang Xuanling?

It is necessary to know that Fang Xuanling was only born in a small family, and the status of the family is not high.

Now that the life and death of the emperor Lao Tzu are uncertain, are you still afraid of you Fang Xuanling?

Fang Xuanling was very annoyed, and simply refuted a lot of mistakes.

But when he turned his head, he found that he had been copied from the back road.

But someone wrote a letter to impeach his son, saying that his son was a bully in Chang'an on weekdays, and after joining the army, he was even more restless in the new army.

This is tantamount to blocking Fang Xuanling's back road, after all, Fang Xuanling does have the idea that once the new army is dismantled, he will send his son to the Hanlin Academy or the Imperial History Taichung, of course...... His own son is also eligible, after all, his son is a Jinshi, which is very reasonable.

As a result, he has been impeached explicitly, and if he continues to brave so many impeachments, and then transfer his son to the court, it really seems a bit of a melon.

His heart was full of anger, and he was annoyed by the tossing of these people.

At the beginning, these old people in the Qin Palace, in fact, did not have a deep foundation, whether it was Li Jing or Cheng Yanjin, including Fang Xuanling, etc., the reason why they were in the prime was because of Li Shimin's strong support.

And once that support is lost, no one is afraid of them.

But if you look at the history of the Tang Dynasty, you can conclude this, almost Li Jing, Fang Xuanling, Cheng Yanjin, after Li Shimin's death, their heirs soon disappeared from everyone, and within a few years, almost all of them were cleared out of the core position of the court, and most of them were the children of the family.

Fang Xuanling only felt the power of these people at this time, although he was nameless in his heart at this time, he couldn't do anything for the time being.

Early the next morning, the prince sent an edict requesting the assembly of hundreds of officials, and the prince entered the court to govern affairs, and Fang Xuanling's worries became even stronger.

Fang Xuanling rushed to the Taiji Gate early in the morning, and the hundred officials who entered the court were already waiting here, and then the hundred officials entered the palace.

When he arrived at the Taiji Palace, he found that in addition to the prince, Chen Zhengtai had already stood in this hall.

The officials looked at Chen Zhengtai with strange eyes, obviously some people thought that in today's court, Chen Zhengtai only had the position of a lieutenant of the horse, and had no other official positions, so he was not qualified to stand here.

However, the hundred officials still saluted.

Without waiting for Li Chengqian to speak, someone took the lead in standing up and said, "Dare to ask His Royal Highness the Prince, is Your Majesty's dragon body still unharmed?" ”

Li Chengqian looked at this person, but it was Wei Qingxue, the squire of the military department.

Wei Qingxue is from the Wei family, and his status is also very high, not to mention that his sister is still the imperial concubine, and she is also a relative of the emperor, as for the seniority, she is still at the level of Li Chengqian's uncle.

Although he is not his uncle, his status is on the table, when Lao Tzu was attached to Li Tang and governed one side, your little doll was still playing with mud!

The Tang Dynasty also rejoices in the monarchy, the ministers, the father, the son, the son. I won't grovel to you as a prince.

Li Chengqian looked displeased, and only said lightly: "Father...... Also ......"

He said it in the clouds.

But when the officials heard it, they noticed that something was wrong.

"What else does that mean?" The one who spoke was Cui Dunli, who was a member of the Zhongshu Society, the grandson of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites in the Sui Dynasty, from the Boling Cui clan.

This Cui family was tossed enough a few days ago, whether it was the Qinghe Cui family or the Boling Cui family, they were obviously deliberately suppressed by Li Shimin. And now Li Shimin's death is unknown, and all of a sudden, the Cui family began to rise again.

In fact, it is not to blame Cui Dunli, a small scholar from the middle school, who dared to question Li Chengqian like this. It's also impossible to inflate without thinking! Counting up, when I was in the Sui Dynasty, when your Li Chengqian's grandfather Li Yuan was still the Duke of Tang Guogong, in the Jinyang Dynasty, in order to find out the movements of the Great Sui Court, he licked his face and gave a gift to my grandfather Cui Dunli! At the beginning, the letters that affectionately called my grandfather and brother are still there, and now the Li family is certainly the son of heaven, but everyone is from the same background, you, the prince, although you are in charge of the country, you don't need everyone's support yet.

Li Chengqian obviously felt the not very good atmosphere, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty looked at each one by one on the surface and was quite deferential, but one by one he did not take himself seriously.

Li Chengqian kept giving Chen Zhengtai a look.

Chen Zhengtai pretended not to see it. It's my, I'm even worse, a little lieutenant, a guy who eats women's food, do I stand up now, waiting to be humiliated together?

Li Chengqian saw Chen Zhengtai like this, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "It's the body of the father, which has not yet recovered, but the father and the emperor have their own natural ......."

"His Royal Highness the Prince, but the minister has heard some gossip." Cui Dunli said lightly: "They all said that the crown prince and the concubine Chen Zhengtai moved His Majesty to the cold palace and did not allow anyone to visit, could it be ...... Is this to emulate the old story of Zhao Gao and Hu Hai? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone stood still, and some even snickered.

Li Chengqian's eyes suddenly widened, and he couldn't help but be furious: "Bold, you dare to say such a thing when you give up people? ”

Cui Dunli did a proper salute, but obviously did not have any fear at all, and said: "Your Highness, the minister is not bold and arrogant, but the current group discussion is raging, and everyone hopes to visit His Majesty, so that the hearts of the people can be reassured." If not, I am afraid that the world will be suspicious. ”

"It's inconvenient for my father to see his ministers." Li Chengqian said: "This is the original intention of my father, and my father ordered the country to be alone ......."

"Your Highness, if the so-called name is not right, it will not be good, and if it is not good, it will not be done." At this moment, another voice came out!

The man then stood up and said, "The ministers still want to visit Your Majesty." ”

The person who spoke was Lu Chengqing, the head of the household.

This Lu Chengqing is from the Fanyang Lu clan, and he is also a first-class family, with Cui Dunli's false words, his courage is much greater than before, in the past, in front of Li Shimin, he did not dare to make a mistake.

Li Chengqian said coldly: "If you say you can't do it, you can't." ”

Everyone seems to have seen through the essence of Li Chengqian's external strength and middle cadre, and when others talk about reasoning, it can be said that there are one set after another, but what about Li Chengqian...... I just know things like no, don't, don't, don't.

Lu Chengqing saw that Li Chengqian was obviously forced into a corner, and immediately smiled: "The minister wants to see Your Majesty because the minister wants to impeach one person." ”

Li Chengqian heard what he said, and he didn't make a sound for a while.

Lu Chengqing said: "The person impeached by the minister is Fang Xuanling, who is the secretary of the court, and this time he ...... Xunguo Gong Zhang Liang conspired against him, but what the minister knew was that Zhang Liang was recommended by Fang Gong at the beginning, if it wasn't for Fang Gong, how could Zhang Liang get today's high position? Now Zhang Liang is plotting rebellion, vainly trying to kill the king, and he is heinous. But as far as the minister knows, Zhang Liang usually misses Fang Xuanling's kindness, and over the years, he has been intersecting with Fang Xuanling, and now Zhang Liang is punished, shouldn't Shang Shuling Fang Xuanling be held responsible? ”

Lu Chengqing said, and Li Chengqian glanced at Fang Xuanling.

Fang Xuanling's face was pale, but he tried his best to make it look like an old god was there, he knew very well that the person who wanted to destroy himself now was not just Lu Chengqing, at this time, he had to be even more calm.

Li Chengqian said: "There is no real evidence...... This matter is to be discussed separately. ”

Lu Chengqing said: "Your Highness does not allow the ministers to discuss His Majesty's dragon body, and does not allow the ministers to investigate Fang Xuanling, who is involved in the rebellion, so what should the ministers discuss?" Yes, the minister remembered that now inside and outside the government and the opposition, the biggest complaint is that the businessmen are rampant and lawless. Your Highness, agriculture is the foundation of the country, and once the peasants are injured, the world is bound to be in chaos. Over the years, the imperial court indulged merchants and despised farming. And many businessmen, extravagant, corrupt the atmosphere, violated the law of the country, only focus on interests, but not education, in the long run, the ministers and other worries, only fear that if it goes on like this, it will shake the foundation of my Tang Dynasty. His Royal Highness should promulgate a new law to prohibit lawless profiteers, and punish and punish some wise and enlightened criminals, so that he can kill the current atmosphere. ”

Having said so much, it turned out that I still wanted to pinch soft persimmons, since His Highness is not allowed to do anything, then ...... Pick up some unscrupulous businessmen, it's always necessary.

Li Chengqian couldn't help but say: "If a businessman violates the law, he has his own law to deal with it, so why should he make a new law?" ”

"Because the old law is no longer enough to make the unscrupulous afraid of the majesty of the court." Lu Chengqing said confidently: "I implore His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take a clear look." ”

Li Chengqian already knew in his heart that there was nothing to discuss in today's court discussions, and these people, all of whom relied on the old and sold the old, forced him into a corner everywhere, but they were still upright, and he didn't even have a chance to refute it.

Li Chengqian didn't hesitate anymore, and suddenly said, "Let's discuss it separately." ”

"Your Highness, the ministers are just speaking up, how can Your Highness just say a word or two, and then be furious?"
