Chapter 39 No Affinity, No Tribute
Early the next morning, Li Chengqian, who had just gotten up, was urged to go early by the eunuch sent by his father.
But Li Chengqian was not in a hurry, he was slow, after breakfast, he went to the vegetable garden for a walk, looking at the seedlings that could already tell most of what kind of vegetables and fruits they were, and Li Chengqian was overjoyed.
"Xiao Anzi, you go to Zhang Gao in a while and tell him to let him buy a piece of land outside the city, go" After speaking, Li Chengqian came out of the vegetable garden and walked towards the Liangyi Hall with the guards. (Under this explanation, the Middle Dynasty and the Inner Dynasty were mistakenly made by the pit goods, and the Taiji Palace that appeared many times before is the general name of the entire palace, and it will be changed to the Taiji Hall as Li Shimin's inner hall in the future, and the Liangyi Hall is the middle hall, that is, the place where he went to the court, and the pit goods in front of him will not be changed, sorry)
"Come on, go and see, what's going on with the prince, why hasn't he come yet, has he taken me in his eyes" This early dynasty has been going on for a while, but I don't see Li Chengqian coming, this angry Li Shimin don't want it.
And the ministers below are also very dissatisfied with Li Chengqian, the crown prince, and the people with five surnames and seven families in charge of the court are gloating.
"Your Highness, why did you come, you will be careful when you go in, Your Majesty is really angry now" Wang De saw Li Chengqian, who was late, and immediately greeted him.
"Who is this my father angry again, it won't be this king" Just halfway through the words, Li Chengqian saw that Wang De's face was not good, he pointed to himself and asked.
"Anyway, you just be careful" Wang De didn't dare to say anything, but kept reminding Li Chengqian.
"Hehe" Hearing this, Li Chengqian smiled, what he wanted was this effect, only if his father was angry, then he would abolish his position as prince, so when he went in, he would still have to add more fire, even if he couldn't abolish his position as prince, then he would have to remove all the constraints on the prince.
"Father, my son is late, I hope my father will forgive me" When Li Chengqian walked into the Liangyi Palace, he immediately bowed to Li Shimin, who was sitting on the top.
"You know, you're late!" Li Shimin stared at Li Chengqian with anger at the bottom.
"Father, you just asked your sons to come over to attend the court meeting today, and you didn't say any time or will, so ......" Li Chengqian looked at his father's angry appearance, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.
"So that's the case, it's still my fault" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian with an angry smile.
"Erchen doesn't dare, I'm talking about how can my father be wrong, it's all wrong with my son, it's because I'm stupid, I can't understand what my father means" Li Chengqian looked at his father with a hesitant face.
Seeing Li Chengqian's appearance, the ministers who were still a little dissatisfied before, such as Fang Xuanling's eldest grandson Wuji, were all nodding secretly, "Prince, this trick is good to retreat."
However, not everyone can see it, and Zheng Xiuxian, a person from the Zheng family who had been waiting impatiently, jumped out, "Your Majesty, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived, the minister once again asks His Majesty to severely punish the Prince."
"I don't know, who is this, what mistake did this king make, you jumped out so impatiently" Before Li Shimin could speak, Li Chengqian questioned Zheng Xiuxian.
"Your Majesty, the prince has no king's law, this is one, conniving at his subordinates to hunt and kill locusts wantonly, so that the locusts are angry, and the people of the Tang Dynasty are displaced, this is two, the prince kills innocents indiscriminately in the East Palace, and the life of the grass is three, and the prince ordered people to open shops, and collect wealth under the banner of the royal family This is four, and the fifth is that the prince has no gentlemanly style, and actually does the work of cooking" Zheng Xiuxian ignored Li Chengqian's questioning, but directly asked Li Shimin.
Hearing Zheng Xiuxian's words, everyone in the court showed different expressions, the people of the family laughed secretly, and those who knew some such as Fang Xuanling shook their heads helplessly, as for those who didn't know anything, they looked at Li Shimin in confusion Looking at Li Chengqian, but some directly said that it was not about their own attitude, and most of these people were military generals.
"Hahaha, laugh to death this king, father, you called me here for this, this person is not stupid, and there is no king law, who is this king law, it is my father, this king, it is my Tang Li family, come, you come to tell this king, why does this king have no king law" Li Chengqian couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard the first point, but he still endured it, and asked him with a smile until Zheng Xiuxian finished speaking.
"This, this, this, Xiaguan ......" Hearing Li Chengqian's question, Zheng Xiuxian didn't know how to answer, because it was wrong to answer.
"Don't do this, that, you remember to this king, this world is my Tang Li family, this royal law is my Tang Li family, even if this king has a big mistake, it is not your turn to manage, my father and the emperor will ask, remember, now is not the pre-Qin Warring States period, not the time when the Son of Heaven and the scholars rule the world, but by my Tang Li family, the purpose of my Tang Li family from today on, not to get along, not to pay tribute, the direction of war, for my Tang Dynasty" Li Chengqian said while slowly walking towards Zheng Xiuxian, But after Li Chengqian finished the last sentence, Zheng Xiuxian was directly frightened by Li Chengqian's momentum and sat on the ground.
"Okay, don't get along, don't pay tribute, the direction of the war, for my Datang, my son said it well" Hearing this, Li Shimin stood up excitedly.
Years ago, he formed an alliance with the Turks, which was forced to do so, otherwise as an aspiring emperor, who would be like this, and the Tang Dynasty at that time could not withstand a war, so he compromised, but now he is thinking about how to get back what he has lost, and he also intends to do so, if it were not for this year's locust plague, which disrupted his plan, he would have used troops against the Turks next year.
And as excited as Li Shimin were the generals and ministers, and they all deeply agreed with Li Chengqian's last words.
"I declare that since I have been in the Tang Dynasty, there will be a Tang Dynasty, forever, no harmony, no tribute, and the descendants will always remember"
"Long live my emperor, long live long live" After Li Shimin finished speaking, all the ministers knelt down the mountain and shouted long live.
"As for the second point, it's even more nonsense, it's also a locust god, but a worm, just eat it directly, someone will bring the fried locusts and give them to the ministers to taste, it just so happens that this king also wants to eat a little" After speaking, Li Chengqian sat directly on his chair and waited.
"Your Majesty, the prince's move is inappropriate" Wei Zheng, who was not called by Li Shimin yesterday, hurriedly came out and shouted that it was inappropriate after hearing it.
"Brother Xuancheng, don't be impatient, this locust is really a good dish with wine, Brother Xuancheng will know it after eating it, but I will wait for the next person to make it when I go back to the house, it is not as delicious as His Majesty's reward, I don't know what the reason is" As soon as Wei Zheng finished speaking, Fang Xuanling stood up to stop it.
"Xuan Ling likes to eat, and I will let Aiqing bring some back at that moment"
"Your Majesty, Thank You"
The others didn't say anything when they saw this, so they sat there silently, while Zheng Xiuxian had a bad premonition to sit there and there.
