Chapter 374: Li Shimin's Nightmare
"It's just playing, don't be so serious, you will be a candidate for your husband, what are your exam questions?"
Cai Cong said with a smile, found a book case and sat down, he is not an old pedant, and the status of women in this era is not as low as imagined.
"How does this work?"
Zheng Rong said shyly, Cai Cong smiled at her, peeked at Xiao Wumei's paper, took paper, pen and ink and began to answer the question. Zheng Rong covered her face and looked at this man she was going to follow for the rest of her life, smirking from time to time.
Sister Cai sent seasonal fruits, watching them play, thinking in her heart that it would be perfect if there was a grandson laughing around her knees at this time.
The morning passed like this, and it was a rare happy time for the family.
So they all cherish it unusually, Cai Cong found out that he has his status and power in the past few years, but he is running around on the road and ignoring their feelings.
"Wei Guo, eat here at noon, let the kitchen make some refreshing dishes." Cai Cong instructed Wei Guo, and at the same time ordered that there would be no guests today.
Zhao Zhujie was rejected from the Hou Mansion, and finally shook his head and sighed and left, the academy wants to last forever, after all, it can't be high, only by giving grace to the world's scholars and following the emperor's wishes, can they have the opportunity to be immortal and become a mountain of books in the world.
"Master Hou, Zhao Zhujie is gone." Wei Guo walked over and leaned over Cai Cong's ear and said.
"Got it, go ahead and go! If Fang Yuan comes back, ask him to wait for me in the front yard. ”
Cai Cong said lightly, he had already estimated that someone would come to the academy today, but he would not see anyone coming. If he is deceived and humiliated like this, he can still smile and invite people to the house to drink tea and chat, then he will look down on himself.
In the palace, Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair and listened to Yan Dong's report, sitting on it, Yan Dong raised his eyes and looked at it, only a vague figure could be seen, and he vaguely felt that a majestic gaze fell on his body.
The emperor's authority is getting heavier and heavier, and his mind is becoming more and more unpredictable, and he must carefully scrutinize every word he says to Li Shimin.
This is also in line with his character, staying at home with his family and refusing to see guests...... This is learning from Li Jing! But it's not a good thing to learn, what did that Fang Yuan do? ”
Li Shimin asked suddenly, Yan Dong chuckled in his heart, he hadn't reported Fang Yuan's matter yet, Li Shimin already knew, how much eyeliner did he plant?
"Back to Your Majesty, Fang Yuan led people to lay out last night, and the sons of several officials of the Ministry of Rites have been sentenced to prison, all of them are filthy crimes, rape ** women, humiliating Sage Kong in public, forcibly occupying other people's family business, one by one, all of them are swept away."
"Is that all?" Li Shimin asked with a smile.
"The first person to appear in every case was the official of the Ministry of Rites, and someone wanted to shield his son, and it was exposed on the spot. There are also people who choose to send their son to prison, and the relationship between father and son breaks down. Your Majesty, the methods of the Marquis of Chang'an are so vicious, they are all means to break the origin of human nature and lose the prestige of the official. ”
"This is my Marquis of Chang'an, a good gentleman who is as gentle as jade, and a vicious and dark villain. Whatever he wants, let him get angry! Don't go today, but tomorrow. Let his family get together today. ”
"Yes! The old slave obeys! ”
"Where has Meng Bao been?"
"Back to Your Majesty, I have already arrived in Penglai, and now I am going up the river, and I will be able to reach Chang'an in less than half a month."
"Didn't I owe Cai Cong a grand class ceremony? Then give him back. Zhao said, Meng Baolai bravely crowned the three armies, and the crowd of thousands of people defeated the enemy in nine cities, and raised the prestige of our Tang Dynasty. Order, the prince, hundreds of officials out of the city ten miles to greet each other. ”
"Your Majesty, these hundred officials...... Wouldn't the Marquis of Chang'an also have to greet him? ”
Yan Dong said with a strange face, if this is the case, Cai Cong will lose all his face, and I am afraid that he will become a laughing stock.
"You have to supervise it immediately, and make sure that the matter of Meng Baolai's thousands of people breaking the nine cities is known to the world. I thought it was the first of the heroes in the world! ”
Li Shimin ignored Yan Dong's words, and said lightly, he wanted to give Cai Cong an elbow, and the best opponent was Meng Baolai, who was very familiar with him.
"The old slave obeyed the order and immediately supervised this matter." Yan Dong said and retreated quickly, only Li Shimin sat on a high place, not knowing what he was thinking.
Not long after, the eldest grandson walked into the palace with small steps, and Li Shimin came back to his senses when he saw her, and asked gently, "Why is Guanyin here?" ”
"The concubine heard that Your Majesty has a bad appetite recently, so she specially cooked some dishes for Your Majesty to taste."
"There are thousands of delicacies in the world, not as good as the slight smile of my Guanyin." Li Shimin's face was full of ice and snow, and he said little love words shamelessly with the eldest grandson, making the eldest grandson's face red.
"Your Majesty said this, didn't the concubine become a compliment? Your Majesty, taste it, the concubine is very fortunate to be done! ”
The eldest grandson said shyly, Li Shimin took the chopsticks and ate the dishes that were not very delicious, and she was the only one who could coax Li Shimin to eat obediently.
"Cai Cong's kid is back, but he doesn't know how to enter the palace to see the concubines, it's really heartless." Li Shimin was eating in a big gulp, and the eldest grandson said distressedly.
Li Shimin lost his appetite and put down his chopsticks and said lightly: "It's okay if he doesn't enter the palace, I don't really want to see him recently." ”
The eldest grandson looked at him in surprise, although she was also disgusted with Cai Cong's wanton killing, but Cai Cong only had 20,000 people and wanted to go deep into the belly of the enemy country, there was no way to do this, she could understand it.
"Your Majesty, even though Cai Cong has killed too much, he is loyal to you, not to mention Cai Cong's outstanding ability, how can a monarch alienate loyal and capable ministers because of his own preferences?"
The eldest grandson immediately said tentatively, she would never contradict Li Shimin, she would only persuade in a roundabout way!
"Alas! How could I have alienated my ministers because of such a thing? It's just ......" Li Shimin said and shook his head, looking like he wanted to say something.
"Then Your Majesty is because ......"
"Alas, I have often dreamed of the eldest brother and the fourth brother recently, they ask me for their lives, they are covered in blood, holding their dead children, and pulling me down to the underworld to find Yan Jun to sue me, I ...... Miserable. ”
Li Shimin said in horror, and the eldest grandson found that behind Li Shimin's calm face, there were deep dark circles and anxious eyes. She hugged Li Shimin's hand tightly and comforted: "Your Majesty is afraid that he will be haunted by nightmares, so he will have this kind of nightmare." Is it good for the concubine to order Yuan Tiangang to exorcise evil spirits? ”
"I have ordered Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng to exorcise evil spirits, the effect is minimal, I have been asked for my life by them for half a year, but I don't know what will take my life."
Li Shimin shook his head and said, when he dreamed for the first time, he asked Yuan Tiangang to interpret the dream, but unfortunately Yuan Tiangang said that the dragon was angry and there was no evil spirit.
