Seven years later, on the bustling streets of Shaoguan in Lingnan, Cai Cong took his wife and children to wander the streets.

Seven years ago, Li Shimin compromised and crowned Cai Cong Xiaoyaogong, Cai Cong did not refuse, and since then he has become an idle person, and he has traveled with his family in the mountains and rivers for seven years, which can be regarded as free.

is that Sister Cai often misses Chu Yao who is far away in Chang'an, and often sighs that the family's great cause is not as good as a well-off family, and even visiting her daughter is a luxury, Cai Cong can only be silent with guilt.

Seven years ago, Chu Moxuan led the army south and retreated all the way to Ryukyu, and only 20,000 of the 50,000 troops withdrew with him.

It is precisely because of them that Li Shimin did not dare to kill Cai Cong, but Cai Cong has offended too many people, and people have been assassinating him in the past seven years.

Cai Cong also killed one by one freely, but he couldn't hurt him anyway, but became a regulator on the journey.

But Pei Dong didn't think so, he found out the source of the assassin, and destroyed six four views and nine temples in one go, announcing that these forces were exterminated because of the assassination of the lord, and there will be no longer long-sighted forces to kill them in the future, and the news shocked the world.

This was destroyed not only by the Tang family, but also by the Tubo and Turkic families, and the bloody means of leaving no grass left were announced to the world, Xiaoyao Gong was more bloody and violent than Chang'an Hou, don't provoke Cai Cong, the consequences are something you can't afford.

"Mother, let's go to Shaoguan Yamen! The prince took the initiative to ask Ying to serve as this year's parade envoy, and now he is settling in Shaoguan! ”

Cai Cong took Cai Qiao and said to Sister Cai with a smile, Sister Cai snorted coldly and said unhappily, "Don't go, go and see what he does?" Yaoyao was demoted to Liangdi, he didn't even dare to say a word of pleading, what did such a son-in-law want him to do? ”

Cai Cong smiled, a year after he left Chang'an, the minister played the crime of Chu Yao's brilliant nature and out-of-the-box behavior, thinking that the future would not be enough to honor the world, and asked that Chu Yao be the honorific on the grounds that it would not be enough to honor the world, this is simply a great humiliation, not because of the seven out of the rule is just because he is a little lively, he will be trampled to the bottom of the mud, who can bear this?

In the face of the surging officials, Li Chengqian chose to remain silent, and at this time, Cai Cong said that it would be humiliating if the daughter of the Cai family surrendered without fault, and asked the emperor to expel Chu Yao from the palace wall, and the Cai family's children and daughters could support themselves.

This piece is folded up, and the saliva of hundreds of officials is about to drown Cai Cong, since ancient times, even if the royal family divorces his wife, he can only enter the cold palace, how have he ever seen the royal family force the royal family to divorce his wife and send him back to his mother's house?

Cai Cong was not polite, when he went down to the court, the family members in Cai's mansion directly broke their legs and pushed several of the most fierce ministers to the river on the road, and one of them drowned alive if he was not rescued in time.

Li Shimin was furious in the palace, cursing Cai Cong for being heartless, and finally exiled the whole family of the beater, and Chu Yao was demoted to Liangdi, and the matter was over.

To put it bluntly, it was a test of Cai Cong by Li Shimin after a year, and the result of the test was that Cai Cong was still very arrogant, so Li Shimin had to give up.

"Really not going? Yaoyao came with him, so you don't want to meet your baby girl? ”

Cai Cong said with a wicked smile, Sister Cai'er's eyes turned red when she heard it, it has been seven years, she hasn't seen her daughter for seven years, and she hasn't even seen her grandson, who is already three years old!

What other streets are you shopping? Sister Cai rushed to Yamen with her whole family in a hurry, and the county order of Yamen and all the officials of Yamen were already waiting.

As soon as he saw Cai Cong, he immediately made a move to the end and welcomed Cai Cong's family into the yamen.

Li Chengqian now looks mature and steady with a beard, and when he saw Cai Cong's smooth face, he looked at him with disdain, the Tang people regard beard as beauty, and lazy people like Cai Cong are the objects of his contempt.

"Son-in-law to meet my mother-in-law!"

Li Chengqian politely saluted Sister Cai, Sister Cai snorted, and asked with a cold face, "What about my daughter and grandson?" ”

Li Chengqian smiled bitterly, and could only say, "Yaoyao is coaxing the child in the back office!" ”

Sister Cai led Zheng Rong and the children directly towards the back office, without looking at Li Chengqian. When she saw Chu Yao, who had become a mother, tears flowed down her eyes, and it was not enough to hold her grandson.

complained to Chu Yao fiercely about Cai Cong, saying that it was this nonsense to be a brother, and Chu Yao was wronged in the palace.

Chu Yao shook her head, what grievances did she suffer? The current crown princess used to always follow her buttocks, and her mother's family had no power, so she didn't dare to pretend to be big with her, the eldest grandson treated her like a daughter, since Li Shimin and Cai Cong fought the law, she felt even more sorry for the innocent and implicated Chu Yao, she simply doted on Chu Yao. In such a situation, apart from Li Shimin, who else would dare to show Chu Yao's face?

Cai Cong and Li Chengqian sighed in the front hall, who could have known that after pacifying the domestic forces, it would be the moment when Cai Cong broke with the imperial court, the two didn't even see each other, and they said goodbye in a hurry for so many years.

"Do you know how scared Chu Yao and I were when I was locked up in the East Palace, my father inherited the way of heaven and ruled Kyushu, and his words and deeds became more and more domineering, but you openly contradicted him, how afraid we were that my father would kill you in anger!"

Li Chengqian said in a trance, as if he had returned to the anxious night in the East Palace seven years ago.

Cai Cong shook his head, of course Li Shimin wanted to kill him, but unfortunately he was also on guard if he didn't succeed, so he could only give up temporarily. Naturally, he wouldn't tell Li Chengqian about this kind of thing, otherwise what should he think of his father?

"I had to go at that time, you may not know that Your Majesty has long had the intention of killing me, and the day of his funeral is the day I will be buried. And my meritorious master, your father doesn't believe in my loyalty at all, I was able to leave because I killed me, the 50,000 troops outside the city will rebel, and the Fusang army may join the Yangzhou Navy to enter Chang'an, your father does not dare to take this risk, otherwise you think my family can leave Chang'an alive? ”

Cai Cong said lightly, Li Chengqian was silent, a courtier like Cai Cong with a lot of power will inevitably make the monarch jealous, which is understandable.

"As soon as you leave, the poor new faction officials have no leader, in the past three months, a total of 704 new faction officials in the center have been released, and even the paperwork of the new faction has been released, and the highest official position is only the head of a county, but even if he is a county commander, he can't control the government service, and all the military power is in the hands of the county Cheng. The first few batches of students from the academy, as long as they are in the officialdom, no matter what position, they are all suppressed, and they can be described as extremely depressed. ”

After Li Chengqian's words were finished, Cai Cong was silent, the new officials, and the students of the academy were all headed by him, and what Li Shimin was most afraid of was that someone in the court colluded with him when Cai Cong rebelled, so how many people were guilty.

"It's good to decentralize, if you stay in Chang'an and have no support, you will suffer sooner or later. How is Asari now? ”

At the end, Cai Cong sighed and said, Li Chengqian shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Although it is angry, it is not as good as before, many little guys are ambitious to stare at my position, and there are also many officials who are attached to them. ”

Li Chengqian clenched his fists when he said this, three years ago, the old man finally couldn't survive his life, and no one in the Manchu Dynasty mourned, and even many people played a request to deprive the old man of the marquis.

However, when Li Chengqian went to mourn, he was impeached by many officials for being a prince or a minister or a minister, and insulting the three programs, most of these people were subordinate officials of the princes.

"Over the years, you have relied on you to take care of all the affairs in the house, but you don't care about it in the future, and if you get too close to me, you will inevitably be convinced."

"What is this called? Now that I have watched the government, these officials worship me, and it is simply wishful thinking that their little guys want to shake my position.

Now what worries me is that the court is not in charge, the veterans are dying, the civil servants are withering, and the new school, which was originally a rising star, has been exiled again. Although there are a lot of materials that can be made in the court today, I am afraid that if I can't wait for them to grow up, those old ministers will all wither. ”

"The most regrettable thing is that Li Jinggong failed, if he hadn't died of exhaustion, the imperial court would have broken the Western Regions to unify this land in the past seven years. It's a pity that instead of being like now, Tubo and Turkic divided the Western Regions and ruled the countries of the Western Regions and stood with the Tang Dynasty! ”

Cai Cong sighed and said, less than half a year after he left Chang'an, Li Jing died suddenly in Shangshu Province, and the national policy of the Western Regions was changed beyond recognition by the newcomers, but the result was cheaper than the Western Turks and Tibet, and now the two countries each have hundreds of small vassals, and their strength has increased a lot.

And the Western Turks also officially declared themselves Turkic orthodoxy, and the Eastern Turks, who existed in name only, could no longer claim to be Turkic, and only their Western Turkic royal court was the descendant of the Heavenly Wolf.

"My father also said to my mother in private, as soon as you leave, for the sake of safety, the court will lose half a hundred, and the old ministers will wither, and it will take more than ten years for Datang to recover."

Li Chengqian said sadly, a high-speed carriage suddenly stopped, how uncomfortable should the person sitting in the carriage be?
