"Then Lord Wei may say that His Majesty's family affairs are also state affairs." Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile.

"What do you think, Guanyin? You know what the emperor is thinking, until now he is still contacting his old ministry, in recent years, there have been disasters in the Tang Dynasty, and many people are saying that they want me to abdicate and return to the emperor. Li Er sneered: "It's just a fantasy." ”

"This matter is really Your Majesty's negligence, since the Emperor Taishang lived in Hanyuan Palace, His Majesty has not been to see the Emperor Taishang once." Empress Changsun said: "Lord Wei is also thinking about His Majesty's reputation, after all, the relationship between His Majesty and the Emperor Taishang is so stiff, and it is always bad for His Majesty's reputation. ”

His Majesty Li Er smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Even if I am willing to go, my father may not want to see me, and if I go to Hanyuan Palace, I am afraid of humiliation." ”

"As long as Your Majesty wants to resolve the stiff relationship with the Emperor, it is nothing more than a matter of time, how. The second brother is also afraid? Empress Changsun said jokingly, the title of His Majesty Li Er returned to the time when Li Er had not yet become the emperor.

Hearing the joke of the eldest grandson queen, Li Er laughed: "Guanyin maid Xiu wants to use the method of agitation to provoke me, and I will go to Hanyuan Hall for a trip." ”

"Although His Majesty saw through it, this agitation method is still very useful, isn't it?" Empress Eldest Sun responded with a smile.

From Taiji Palace to Li Yuan's residence of the Daming Palace Hanyuan Hall distance is not said to be closer, out of the Xuanwu Gate across the road is the West Inner Garden, the West Inner Garden also belongs to the royal garden, from the east of the West Inner Garden through the Xing'an Gate, this is into the Daming Palace, the Daming Palace was built up in the previous dynasty, is a palace built separately in the north of Chang'an City, the Han Yuan Palace where Li Yuan lives is located in the center of the Daming Palace, surrounded by mountains and rivers, of course, the mountain is the artificial pile up of the rockery, the water is also the river outside the city that is artificially dug out of the lake.

In terms of living environment, Daming Palace can be described as the most comfortable palace, although it is located outside the palace, Li Er arranged Li Yuan to live here at the beginning, because the environment here is comfortable, and it is not in the palace, at that time the two can be said to be tired of seeing each other, Li Yuan hated Li Er for taking his seat, Li Er complained that Li Yuan favored Li Jiancheng and treated himself harshly, and the royal family affection had already been wiped out on that big position.

Wei Zheng suddenly mentioned this matter, and Empress Eldest Sun also wanted to take this opportunity to try to resolve the contradiction between Li Er and Li Yuan, after all, this was also a stalk in Li Er's heart.

Hanyuan Palace, give people the feeling that there is only golden brilliance to describe, the three people in the hall hug the thick pillar to depict the dragon and the phoenix, with real gold, the silk thick account is tied up, the curtain leading to the inner hall is made of round pearls. Speaking of which, His Majesty Li Er still has guilt in his heart for Li Yuan, and this guilt makes him continue to send all kinds of treasures to the Hanyuan Palace, and build the Hanyuan Hall into a more luxurious and extravagant place.

It's just that for Li Yuan, what is the use of this Hanyuan Hall decoration no matter how luxurious and extravagant? After all, this is Hanyuan Palace, not Taiji Palace.

His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun took the palace maids to the gate of Hanyuan Palace, left the guards in front of the palace, and the two walked into the hall side by side.

"Your Majesty" accompanied the little yellow door was just about to open his throat and shout, but was stopped by a gesture from Empress Changsun, here lives the Emperor Taishang, this voice shouted out, isn't it for the Emperor Taishang to find unpleasantness.

It's just that this half of the voice has already been heard, and Li Yuan in the hall must have heard it too.

His Majesty Li Er looked around, and then walked towards the store, in the inner hall, Li Yuan was drinking and feasting, and on a table, Li Yuan and another young man were drinking.

When the young man saw His Majesty Li Er walk in, his expression was a little flustered, and with a shake of his hand, the wine in the cup spilled on most of the table.

His Majesty Li Er saw Li Yuan drinking with this young man, and smiled: "When will the sixth brother return to Chang'an?" Why don't you say hello to me when you come back? ”

The person sitting opposite Li Yuan was Li Shimin's half-brother, Li Yuan's sixth son, Li Yuanjing, the king of Zhao.

Li Yuanjing hurriedly put down the wine glass and got up to salute: "The younger brother has seen the imperial brother and the imperial sister-in-law. ”

"My own family, on my father's side, there is no need for these red tapes." Li Er stepped forward and helped Li Yuanjing up: "When did the sixth brother arrive in Chang'an?" Li Erfu asked.

The vassal king returned to the fiefdom after the first month, and without the edict of the Son of Heaven, he could not return to Chang'an at will, Li Yuanjing returned to Chang'an this time, but His Majesty Li Er did not receive any news, and now, Li Yuanjing is sitting with Li Yuan in Hanyuan Palace.

"It's because I miss Yuanjing, so I sent someone to recall him, what's the matter, I can't do this?" Li Yuan's face was gloomy, and he didn't look at Li Shimin.

Seeing Li Yuan's expression, Li Er, who was in a good mood, suddenly sank his emotions and said, "That's not what Erchen meant. ”

"Since that's not what I mean, then don't bother me and Yuanjing, it's rare to be clean these days, and I finally met my son." Li Yuan said coldly, but he showed his dissatisfaction with Li Er in his heart, no matter how extravagant Hanyuan Hall was, for Li Yuan, it was just a luxurious prison, a golden wire cage that trapped him.

Hearing this, the anger in Li Er's heart was like a wave, he Li Yuanjing is your son, isn't Li Shimin your son? Li Er closed his eyes and took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, calmed the resentment in his heart, and said indifferently: "Since this is the case, the minister will not disturb the father and the sixth brother to catch up." With that, he turned around and walked out.

After the eldest grandson empress on the side signaled to Li Yuanjing, she blessed Li Yuan and said, "Father, the daughter-in-law also retreated first." ”

For the eldest grandson queen, Li Yuan still has a good impression, since living in this Hanyuan Palace, in addition to being seriously ill and unable to get out of bed, the eldest grandson queen has come here every day to greet him, and at four o'clock and eight festivals, he will also send someone to send him something.

Facing Empress Changsun, Li Yuan's face softened, and he nodded lightly: "Well, retreat." ”

"Father, if you treat the second brother like this, you must be annoyed by him." Li Yuanjing sat down again and looked at Li Yuan.

At this time, Li Yuan looked a little thin, but his eyes as sharp as a falcon made Li Yuanjing dare not look at him directly.

"Even so, so what, he can still kill me, look at the three years since he ascended the throne, the entire Tang Dynasty is in a miasma, there is a drought here today, where is the flooding tomorrow, the locust plague in Kyushu, God is punishing him, punishing him, a sinner who extorted confessions and usurped the throne, killed his brother and killed his brother!" The more Li Yuan spoke, the more excited he became, and the wine glass in his hand was thrown to the ground: "I hate it!" ”

"Father's anger is at ease." Li Yuanjing hurriedly persuaded: "Hasn't my father been entrapping the old ministry of the central government?" ”
