Gao Ming felt that Li Shimin came to Mount Tai to worship the sky not to ask for rain, but to get tired of staying in Chang'an City, so he ran out to play, otherwise, he would not have to go directly to Chang'an to worship the sky, why did he run so far to Mount Tai?

However, no matter how much he slandered Li Shimin, he still had to go to worship the sky, so he could only comfort himself silently in his heart.

"Alas, it's just climbing Mount Tai to exercise!"

Compared with Gao Ming, Li Jing's heart was also very lost.

Originally, he thought that he could take advantage of this meeting to leave Gao Ming, so as not to be poisoned by him when he was drunk, but now that it is Li Shimin's order, he can only choose to accept it, and at the same time secretly comfort himself in his heart.

"With His Majesty present this time, I hope His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be a little more restrained!"

Li Jing went to see Li Shimin with Gao Ming with this good wish, but when they saw Li Shimin at the foot of Mount Tai, Li Shimin's words immediately made Li Jing stunned and forced.

"Pharmacist, I heard that you have a son named Nezha?"

Li Ji: "......"

Seeing Li Jing's stunned look, Li Shimin immediately burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha, I'm joking with you, because I also know who caused this."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin immediately glared at Gao Ming, and when he saw this scene, Gao Ming immediately rolled his eyes.

Blame me?

Gao Ming didn't intend to continue the topic, so he immediately changed the topic with a dry smile.

"Aha...... That one...... Old man, don't you want to sacrifice to the sky? It's not too early, let's sacrifice quickly, we can go back to Chang'an earlier after the sacrifice, I've been outside for months, I'm so tired! ”

Hearing Gao Ming's words, the corners of Li Shimin's mouth immediately twitched twice, and then snorted coldly.

"Hmph, it's only been more than four months since you went on the expedition, and you want to be the ...... when I and Emperor Taizu came from Taiyuan to fight in the world."

Seeing that Li Shimin had entered a state of gushing, Gao Ming could only sigh helplessly, and suddenly felt more tired.

By the time Li Shimin finished preaching, it was already a stick of incense, and seeing that there was still a bit of unfinished look on his face, Gao Ming seemed to have thought of something, and immediately glanced at him.

"I said old man, are you planning to drive Xue Yantuo in person, but the courtiers disagreed, you didn't fight against them, so you took the sacrifice to the sky and prayed for rain as a chapter, and planned to use this method to fight against them, right?"

"Uh......"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin's eyes immediately widened, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face, but then he returned to normal and glared at Gao Ming viciously again.

"Hmph, nonsense!"

After saying that, he didn't pay attention to Gao Ming anymore, and turned around and left directly.

Looking at the back of Li Shimin leaving, Gao Ming and Li Jing suddenly glanced at each other, and then smiled.

In fact, Gao Ming guessed correctly, this time Li Shimin came to Mount Tai to pray for rain, and there was indeed an element of anger with the courtiers.

The Tang Dynasty went to Goguryeo, and Li Shimin especially wanted to go to this battle, but unfortunately he had already given Gao Ming the official position of Admiral Tiance, so there was no reason for him to go to the imperial expedition.

When Quan Gaisu was sent to Chang'an, Li Shimin felt a little remorseful in his heart, in fact, he hoped that it was he who captured Quan Gaisu.

And when the Yici King of Baekje was also sent to Chang'an, Li Shimin's remorse reached a peak.

"It took less than four months from the expedition to defeat Goguryeo and Baekje, and even I have never had such a record!"

What's more, in the battle of Marudu Castle, Huzi's 5,000 cavalry directly attacked Quangaisu's 100,000 Goryeo army, and also captured Quangaisu.

Such a record also broke the myth of "breaking 100,000" in his tiger prison at the beginning.

Under such circumstances, Li Shimin inevitably has a feeling that "the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach".

It's gratifying, but it's also very frustrating.

"I'm only forty-six years old this year, and I'm not yet ready to be covered by juniors!"

When Li Shimin was in a complicated mood, Xue Yantuo came.

According to the information obtained by Li Shimin, the one who brought troops to Shuofang County in Henan this time was the second son of Yi Nan, the leader of Xue Yantuo.

Obviously, this was a premeditated invasion, and after getting the news, Li Shimin was angry and excited.

Anger is because of Xue Yantuo's betrayal, and excitement is because he finally has a meeting where he can shine!

Just imagine, the main force of the Tang Dynasty is still in Goguryeo, Xue Yantuo took advantage of the unpreparedness of the Tang Dynasty to enter, at this time, he, the emperor, stood up to turn the tide and help the general of the building to fall, what a great shore this is?

Just thinking of this, Li Shimin felt so happy that he was about to pee.

It's a pity that the courtiers didn't pay attention to his urine spots, and a scoop of cold water poured on his head.

"If a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, Your Majesty must not easily wade into danger!"

"Xue Yantuo is like a disease of ringworm scabies, His Majesty can calm it down by sending a small general, why bother to mobilize the people to drive the expedition?"

"Your Excellency is right......

What made Li Shimin even more helpless was that after the minister finished speaking, the military general immediately jumped out.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to lead the troops to defeat Xue Yantuo!"

"Wechen is willing to order a military order!"

"Wechen too!"

These generals who jumped out did not catch up with the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, and now that there is a meeting of Xue Yantuo in the Northern Expedition, how can they let it go, and their eyes are red all of a sudden, and they almost didn't fight.

Seeing this scene, Li Shimin also knew that he didn't have a personal expedition, so he simply let Guo Xiaoke be the head of the Xizhou Road march, and took 100,000 soldiers and horses to conquer Xue Yantuo, while he ran to Mount Tai to relax on the grounds of sacrificing to the sky.

In fact, the ministers all know that worshipping the heavens and praying for rain is after June, and those who pray for rain before April are basically going to eat and drink at public expense under the banner of worshipping the heavens.

However, they didn't dare to offend Li Shimin too much, so they maintained a tacit attitude towards his behavior.

This time, Li Shimin made it clear that he was here to relax, so he didn't even write the greetings of worshipping the sky and asking for rain, and when it was time to worship the sky, he stood in front of the incense case and moved his mouth to finish the matter, anyway, the people behind him couldn't hear what he was saying.

Just as Li Shimin was about to ask people to withdraw the incense case and leave, he suddenly found that he was standing on the side listlessly.

Seeing this scene, Li Shimin's face suddenly darkened, and he beckoned towards Gao Ming.

"Prince, as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, you should also come up to pray for rain, if you are not sincere, you can't pray for rain, hum!"

“……”

Gao Ming knew that Li Shimin was deliberately manipulating him, and he suddenly felt a little angry in his heart, and before he came to the offering table, he suddenly folded his heart, and his mouth was also full of words.

"I heard that you are very arrogant, but don't be embarrassed, it won't rain in the sky, first pick up the Dragon Emperor Temple, and then bombard your mother with a cannon."

Li Shimin: "......"
