On the fifth day of December in the fourteenth year of Zhenguan, Hou Jun gathered to offer Gaochang to be captured in the Guande Palace. Taizong was overjoyed and held a banquet for three days. And more posthumous seals.

On the ninth day of the first month, it was suddenly because Wei Yuancheng told Junji to take his treasures privately when he broke Gaochang, so his subordinates knew about it and competed to follow suit, but they all stole and stole it, and Junji lost his morality and could not be forbidden.

Taizong was furious, so he ordered Junji and others to be imprisoned.

The time was sarcastic, saying that this was because Taizong did not like the prince. The prince is worried.

The Chinese book waiter Lang Cen text plays, Baojun set, saying that this line really hurts the heart of the hero, hurts the arms of the loyal general, and the small loss does not hide the great achievement, and the slight flaws are difficult to hide the beautiful jade. Taizong sighed for a long time when he heard it, and then released Junji.

Ran Junji was resentful because of this, and there were a lot of slanders in private. The prince was sad because of the same feelings, and he had a close relationship with Junji.

In addition, Xue Wanjun secretly played Taizong, saying that the Wei family has recently made its deeds clear, which means the East Palace, and asked Taizong to consider it in detail. Taizong was overjoyed and gave jade.

However, the next day, there was a supervisor under the fourth grade, Xiao Ziyan, who secretly accused Wanjun of fornicating with Gao Changnu. Wanjun appealed for grievances, and Taizong was tried by Dali Temple. Wei Zheng was in a hurry to admonish him, and Taizong was in a hurry to release Wanjun.

When Wan Jun heard it, he felt the emperor's grace. Tears in his eyes.

Xiao Ziyan told Hou Jun that he was sick and depressed, and Zhao Yuankai, the head of the march, actually sniffed it with his pus, and impeached him for flattering Junji. Junji heard the regeneration of complaints. After that, Gaochang Zhiping, all the generals received the reward immediately when the decree was carried out, but the marching governor Ashina Sheer did not accept the edict of the Taizong handwriting. Wait until you don't do it, and then you will accept it. And the rewards are only the old and weak servants, and the bad money. Taizong Jiaqi was honest and prudent, so he gave it with the treasure knife obtained by Gaochang and thousands of pieces of silk of various colors. When Jun Ji heard this, he whispered to the prince and said: The treasure knife is originally a thing that the minister wants to enter His Royal Highness, and now His Majesty does not like His Royal Highness and the minister, so he rewards others. The prince was worried.

In the spring of the fifteenth year of Zhenguan.

Yuan Zhengri (Spring Festival, the first day of the first month).

The Great Pilgrimage Meeting in the Palace. The ministers drank merrily.

On the fifth day of the first month, Taizong Xingxing Wanchun Palace. Concubine Yan had no intention of mentioning that she had heard about Xu Chongrong's illness in Yanjiadian a few days ago. Taizong was worried, and then entered the Yanjia Palace.

Enter the Yanjia Hall and see Xu Chongrong. Nai was shocked:

"Why are you so emaciated?"

Xu Chongrong wept and said:

"The old love Bailiang Terrace, the new favorite Zhaoyang Palace.

Keep the words and cry with affection.

Once singing and dancing, the poetry and books of the past were cheap.

The decline and sincerity have been carried out, and it is difficult to re-recommend it. ”

When Taizong heard this, he was also sad and sighed, and said straight:

"If you talk about being older, she is the eldest and you are the youngest, who is the new favorite and who is the old love, but I still need to speak up?"

Xu Chongrong cried again:

"When the concubine enters the palace, there is nothing else to ask for, and I would like to think of Your Majesty. I hope that Your Majesty will abandon the concubine with sincerity. ”

When Taizong heard it, he couldn't bear it.

The talented man Wu Zhao stood and cried:

"Niangniang misses it day and night, and Your Majesty naturally doesn't know. However, Your Majesty Shengming, since you know that there is nectar in the door, why do you need to get the palace people to be in the middle of the night? Your Majesty's strategy can be achieved by thousands of troops, but he can't understand the hearts of children? ”

Taizong suddenly felt more pity for the second daughter. It was night, and the stay was filled with Xu's place, and he was fed with decoction and medicine, and his clothes were embraced. To comfort Xu's heart. The talented Wu family saw that the Xu family had returned to favor, and even more so than before, and he was very relieved in his heart, and he quietly left.

The next day, the Xu family's close attendant Wen Niang said, saying that it was rumored in the palace that the matter of Ganlumen that day was framed by someone, and Taizong even asked Wang Deming to investigate.

For a time, everyone was in danger.

However, there was no movement in the palace of the concubines.

On the twelfth day of the first month, Taizong wanted to praise the princess of Langya and the princess of Tubo. However, he did not accept it because he had a good wife in his family, and Taizong loved him, so he changed it to a generous gift, and Dongzan did not accept it after all.

Taizong sighed. So he stopped. At the request of Yilu Dongzan, Li Yuxi, the concubine of Wang Chengfan (Li Daozong) of Jiangxia County, was the princess, and Wencheng was given the marriage of Tubo Zampu, and because of the hardships of the King of Jin, he was ironic with the reason of father and daughter, and Taizong felt for a long time and asked for it.

Then he took Chengfan as the marriage envoy and personally sent his daughter to Tibet as a concubine.

(There are many interpretations of this history.) However, I think there is a good chance that Princess Wencheng is the daughter of Li Daozong, so I wrote it like this)

Cheng Fan felt that the kindness of the king of Jin was inexhaustible, and after returning to Beijing, he went to the Ganlu Hall to thank the king of Jin, which is a matter of later. On the eighth day of February of the same year, Princess Tong'an Chang (Li Yuan's sister, Li Shimin's aunt, Li Zhi's aunt) suddenly fell ill.

Taizong was shocked when he heard this, but he was fortunate to bring his sons, King Jin had never seen his aunt and grandmother when he was young before, and he did it this time. The eldest princess is grateful, and she is even more rewarded.

When the eldest princess saw King Jin for the first time, she was very happy, and she called him to the bed, and she heard who was the surname, but she could have a good match. King Jin replied shyly one by one. The eldest princess is even more happy.

Naiko Taizong said:

"This is a wonderful place, and you must find a good match.

The late husband had a nephew and a daughter of the Wang family. Wang's family, clan also. And its beauty and grace, solemn and smooth. It's better to be a concubine. ”

When Taizong heard this, he looked at his beloved son, and although he saw that his beloved son was smiling, there was a look of displeasure in his eyes.

So he smiled and covered it up.

However, the eldest princess did not hesitate, and asked Taizong again and again, but Taizong finally did not answer, and comforted him with a smile. The eldest princess's complexion changed.

Seeing this, Taizong was unsatisfied, but he respected the eldest princess, but the young slave of the comfort was young and had never been served.

The eldest princess has a strong temperament, and when she heard this, she said:

"Make a plan early. The Wang family is fortunate to have such a good girl. ”

Taizong smirked. The eldest princess is angry, and the king of Jin is uneasy.

Fortunately, Wang Dejin, the inner chamberlain, said that the important ministers in the court asked to see him, and he was inside. Taizong and his sons were liberated.

Because the king of pity Jin was frightened for no reason, he introduced Taizong's car to comfort him.

However, after entering the car, you can hear the Taizong Dao of King Jin's wailing words on the left and right:

"The son has been sluggish since he was a child, and he has been loved and protected by his father, and such a major event should have been the order of the father and the queen mother. Since the queen mother is not there, it should be stopped by the father's order. Looking at it now, my aunt and grandmother want to be the main one! The pain of children's lives is also! ”

Taizong didn't mention it, but only blindly comforted.

Return.

Taizong comforted the king of Jin again.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and Li Ji entered the internal discussion.

Surprised to see the king of Jin crying, he asked. I learned about the eldest princess. Li Jinai sighed:

"I have heard that the eldest princess has a strong personality, and now she is not going to do what she wants, and it is inevitable that she will complain in the future."

When Taizong heard this, he persuaded the king of Jin to return to the palace to rest, and then said to the ministers:

"The world is my world, and the immature slave is my youngest son. Although people are always human, they must not violate filial piety. However, after all, the eldest princess lost the gift of her elders this time, and she lost the system of the monarch and the minister.

My love is the desire to drow. I am responsible. ”

Wei Zheng even advised:

"People are always in the first place.

The son of heaven and the dragon heir, the main palace heir, how can his relatives climb strongly?

Wang's father, Wang Renyou, is only the sixth product of the Luo Mountain Order, and he is mediocre, he does not hear the merits of the court, and he does not know the virtue of the clan, and his fame is all due to the grace of the king, and the eldest princess is merciful.

It was the eldest princess who knew that she was not a good match, so she said that the Wang clan was a good match.

Your Majesty knows people and talents, and has a good reputation through the ages, and it is not appropriate to use such women to slander them. I ask Your Majesty to stop his delusions. ”

All the ministers praised.

The eldest grandson Wuji was silent.

Taizong was unfortunate in the eldest princess's mansion for several years, and gradually became disgusted with the king.

At the end of February of the fifteenth year of Zhenguan.

Tai Chi Palace.

Tai Chi Temple.

Shang Shufang.

Taizong sits on the dragon throne. The left and right are divided into the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling.

"How?"

After watching Wang Deqing retreat, he asked Xiang Wuji.

Wuji crossed his hands to his chest and said:

"The Lord of the Initiation, I already know that King Jing is unstoppable."

Taizong took a deep breath:

"Who are the friends with them?"

"Lord, there are many friends in the party. However, the highest among them seems to be included. ”

As soon as the eldest grandson Wuji's words came out, Fang Xuanling frowned slightly. Taizong saw the clue, but did not move, but continued to ask:

"Let's talk about it!"

"Yes, the things that the old minister investigated a few days ago were heard by King Jing in private and inside. Therefore, the suspicious abandoned letter post (carrier pigeon station) under his house was sealed. Among them, the building is empty, but there are still some things left, which are internal royal products. ”

Taizong's eyes sank:

"Do you know which temple it belongs to?"

"Back to the Lord, it is not yet clear."

Taizong nodded. After a long time, he sighed:

"He still doesn't repent......"

Fang Xuanling said:

"The Lord must not indulge in this."

Taizong shook his head and sighed:

"It's my siblings. If you have broken hands and feet, how can you live? Moreover, he is now just a caged bird, just fluttering. What matters is the person with whom he is private. Who can be found out in the room? ”

Fang Xuanling shook his head, his eyes were like torches: "However, there is one thing, when the Lord General is fortunate to be in the Luoyang Palace, there will be abnormal movements." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji's eyes were lowered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Taizong knew what he meant, and said: "Since this is the case, then it is necessary to take more precautions." ”

He turned his face again and said:

"It is really the virtue of the second secretary to be able to visit like this this time."

The eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling smiled and thanked him. Fang Xuanling smiled even more:

"The most meritorious person this time should be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. In the past six months, the Wei family has made frequent moves, and they have targeted the East Palace everywhere. It is rare that His Highness can calm his heart so calmly. ”

Taizong was proud, but still said: "If a little thing ruins his heart, then it should not be regarded as the prince of a country, and the house has an excessive reputation." ”

After a slight pause, the eldest grandson Wuji said:

"The only regret is that I failed to shake the person inside. However, it is not completely without reason, what did the Lord think about the Manna Gate a few days ago? ”

"Although there are many concubines in this **, the two Qing families should know that what can really make me feel at ease and my heart is now only the virtuous concubine and this Xu Chongrong. Although I deliberately made her suffer some grievances, it was really helpless...... But fortunately, Hui'er is sensible. Although he has a little temper, he also understands things,

It's a pity that she has seen through it so far, and we have wronged her so far, and the ** person still hasn't been able to show her feet. ”

"Lord, don't be anxious, we've been waiting for so many years, and it's not too late." Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "As long as the Lord still gives her some hope, sooner or later, she will show some horses' feet." ”

Taizong's eyes turned cold: "People's desires, if they are right, can do great things." But if you do, you will ruin your life. She was killing herself. No matter how clever she is, once she has selfish intentions, she will inevitably bring about a time when she will bring about her own destruction. ”
