The next morning.

When Qin Tian came to the front of the palace, the cold wind was cold, and a group of ministers who came early were talking to each other with their necks bent.

Among these people, a large number of them are from the old party of the East Palace.

They didn't sleep all night because of yesterday's incident, and they came early this morning.

They are disturbed, even frightened.

Seeing Qin Tian coming, these people immediately surrounded Qin Tian.

Yesterday, Li Shimin treated Qin Tian very kindly, and they all heard about it, so if they wanted to live, they had to stammer Qin Tian.

"Lord Qin, you are more energetic than before......

Qin Tian shrunk his neck, not seeing that bit of spirit at all, after hearing this, Qin Tian himself couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Lord Qin, you are more handsome than before......"

“…………”

Qin Tian couldn't listen to it a little, and quickly interrupted them.

"I know what you mean, but please rest assured, the prince is rebelling, that is the prince's business, and it has nothing to do with you."

When these people heard this, they couldn't help but smile bitterly in their hearts, it was clear that Li Jiancheng killed his brother, but now they say that Li Jiancheng is plotting rebellion, which will really reverse black and white.

But now that the winner is king, they didn't dare to say anything, and when they heard that they might be fine, these people finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As a few people were saying this, the palace gate opened: "The early dynasty begins, and the ministers go to the palace." ”

A group of officials rushed in, but compared with the past, the time to enter the temple lasted a little longer today, because many people who had not been in the early court before came today.

For example, some old princes, old princes or something, and in addition to these who don't go to court because they are too old, there are also some minor officials who were not qualified to go to the court, and they are all here today.

Qin Tian, as a different driver, is also the founding county uncle, and he only stood in the middle of the main hall, and the people standing in front of him were all princes and county kings.

Even the princes who could stand in front before, such as Qin Shubao and others, are also a little behind at this time.

Li Shimin stood at the front, his expression calm, his hands shrunk in his sleeves, just waiting for Li Yuan's arrival.

Originally, he didn't want Li Yuan to meet with these ministers again, after all, if Li Yuan talked more, it would not be good.

But if the ministers were not allowed to see Li Yuan, it would be easy for these ministers to have some speculations, so there would be trouble when many decrees were issued, so Li Shimin decided to take a risk.

After the ministers came, Li Yuan went up to the main hall with the support of two eunuchs, both of whom were Li Shimin's people, and they could do anything for Li Shimin when necessary.

Li Yuan also knows this.

At the beginning of the early dynasty, Li Yuan looked at His Royal Highness and the ministers, and said, "Everyone is here today, okay, good." ”

A very strange sentence, the ministers looked at each other, but no one spoke, and the whole hall was surprisingly quiet.

"Yesterday's incident, I think you have all heard about it, the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the king of Qi conspired against the palace, but fortunately they were stopped by the people, and I survived......

Li Yuan sat on the dragon chair and said, what he said was a little disgusting even to himself, and he couldn't listen to it, but he still had to continue to talk because he had no other choice.

"The prince's rebellion is a matter of the prince alone, for the cronies of the East Palace, or those who are close to the East Palace on weekdays, as long as they don't make trouble anymore, I will not pursue it, I hope everyone will perform their duties and govern my Tang Dynasty more prosperously."

Speaking of this, Li Yuan suddenly coughed a few times, looking very weak, and then said a few times: "Yesterday's incident hit me very hard, and I am old, so I decided to canonize Li Shimin as the crown prince, and I will manage the affairs of the court in the future. ”

Li Yuan said this, the officials above the court, many people who were very close to the East Palace, finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time, as for letting Li Shimin be the prince.

Although many smart people can see at a glance that this is Li Shimin's trick, they just want to clear their name, but now that Li Shimin has mastered the military power, they just stand up and point it out, and I'm afraid it won't help.

Li Shimin has succeeded in forcing the palace, and if he opposes him becoming the crown prince, it is not to force him to ascend the throne directly, if he ascends the throne directly, he is afraid that there will be a bloody storm in the court, and maybe he will be implicated.

People cherish their lives, and the smarter people are, the more they know what they should do, so no one in the entire court objected to the appointment of Li Shimin as the crown prince.

After Li Yuan said these words, he coughed violently again, and after he finished coughing like this, he said: "Alas, old, old, let's get here today's morning, and listen to the prince's arrangement." ”

The crown prince naturally refers to the new prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin.

Li Yuan was supported by two eunuchs, and this time, he probably only had one chance to go to the early court again in his life.

Li Yuan left, and the hall was quiet for a moment, but after a while, it immediately became noisy again, and Li Shimin stood in front with a calm expression.

"His Royal Highness the Prince......" Pei Lin walked over to Li Shimin, as a secret chess piece of Li Jiancheng in the past, Pei Lin never thought that Li Jiancheng would lose so quickly, and he lost in a mess.

Of course, he didn't expect that Li Shimin would use such bloody means to get everything he wanted.

And no matter what he didn't think of, now that Li Shimin is in power, it is a foregone conclusion, as a person who has experienced the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty and changed hands several times, it doesn't matter who the prince is, as long as he can keep the glory of his Pei family.

After Pei Lin shouted, Li Shimin suddenly looked at Pei Lin and smiled: "Master Pei, as my prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, should do more for my Tang Dynasty, many cronies in the East Palace are still fleeing, or they refuse to surrender, I wonder if Lord Pei can confidently persuade them to surrender?" ”

Many of the people who went to the court today are relatively close to the East Palace, and they will not defend the East Palace, but in addition to them, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji also have some cronies, such as Xue Wanche and Wei Ting.

These Donggong cronies, Xue Wanche and others have already absconded, and it is not ruled out that they will wait for the opportunity to move, so in addition to sending people to search and arrest, persuasion is also a way.

And these people like Wei Ting, who are hard-mouthed and refuse to surrender, are now under house arrest, these people have to ask Pei Lin to take a trip.

After Pei Lin heard Li Shimin's words, he smiled bitterly in his heart, persuade him to surrender, anyone can go, but Li Shimin just let him go, obviously knowing the relationship between him and Li Jiancheng, and Li Shimin also wants to test him through this matter, if he doesn't accept it, I'm afraid the future will be difficult.

And accepting it is tantamount to betraying Li Jiancheng, and he can only go all the way to the dark in the future.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said in time, as the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, you should share the worries of the court, leave this matter to Weichen, Weichen will definitely handle it for you."
