Chapter 224: Surprising Words (Fourth Update)
Because she was born as a concubine and married early, Princess Xiangcheng is also a "little transparent" existence among princesses, and now after being affirmed by Li Shimin, her excited eyes are moist.
"Thank you, Xiangcheng understands, Xiangcheng will not live up to his father's expectations."
Of course, Princess Xiangcheng did not forget Gao Ming, a hero, and immediately threw a grateful glance at him, and when she saw her gaze, Gao Ming immediately grinned.
"Sister, you don't have to be so excited, and I don't think it's a big deal for you to be happy."
Speaking of this, Gao Ming glanced at Xiao Yu.
"Especially like some stunned fathers, if he dares to scold you, you just come and tell me, I immediately ran over to scold him, others are afraid of him, I am not afraid of him."
Seeing Gao Ming's gaze, Xiao Yu immediately became angry.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, what do you mean by that?"
As soon as Xiao Yu's words fell, Gao Ming immediately raised his eyebrows at him.
"Guess?"
"You!"
Seeing that the two were fighting again, Empress Xiao and Li Shimin both felt a little crying and laughing.
However, Gao Ming did not continue to "fight" with Xiao Yu, but turned his attention to Xiao Rui.
"And brother-in-law, if he dares to kick his nose in the face with you, you also tell me, I will ask the old man to transfer him to the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate to be with Hou Junji when I turn around."
Hearing Gao Ming's words, Xiao Rui suddenly opened his mouth wide, but he couldn't say a word.
At the beginning, Hou Junji was transferred to the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, and the entire court knew about it, and everyone was speculating that it was because he offended Gao Ming, but this was just speculation, and there was no actual evidence.
But now, Gao Ming made it clear in front of them, and more importantly, Li Shimin did not refute it, so it is natural to see what this means.
This incident actually shocked Xiao Yu very much, because Hou Junji, like him, was an important minister of the Tang Dynasty, and he was also one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion personally recognized by Li Shimin.
But it was such an important minister, and he was actually deposed because of Gao Ming, so this made Xiao Yu see one thing clearly, that is, Gao Ming was the heir to the throne recognized by Li Shimin.
To put it bluntly, it is the future monarch of the Tang Dynasty!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu's eyes when she looked at Gao Ming suddenly changed.
Seeing Xiao Yu looking at him stunned, Gao Ming immediately grinned at him.
"I hate it, dead ghost, don't look at people like that!"
“……”
Thinking that the future monarch of the Tang Dynasty was such an unobtrusive guy, Xiao Yu suddenly became a little desperate.
Seeing Xiao Yu looking at him like a ghost, Gao Ming suddenly shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
"I'm just going to liven up the atmosphere, you don't have to look at me like that, do you?"
As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, a giggling laugh sounded behind Princess Xiangcheng, Gao Ming looked up, and suddenly found that it was Xiao Rui's two sons laughing there.
The eldest of the two children looked to be about ten years old, while the younger one was only five or six years old, and when he saw them snickering there, Gao Ming immediately beckoned to them.
"Two little ghosts, come over to my uncle."
Hearing Gao Ming's words, the two of them immediately looked up at Princess Xiangcheng, and as soon as Gao Ming saw their expressions, he knew that Princess Xiangcheng must be in charge of the family, so he immediately laughed.
"Haven't you heard people say that the closest thing is my mother's uncle? Why don't you come over yet? ”
As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Princess Xiangcheng also laughed.
"Keep the industry, keep the way, that is, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has called you, you can go over!"
Hearing Princess Xiangcheng's words, Gao Ming immediately waved his hand.
"Eldest sister, they are all from their own family, and it is rusty to call His Royal Highness the Prince."
After speaking, Gao Ming took out the money bag from his arms, grabbed two pieces of broken silver from it, stuffed them directly into the hands of the two children, and then touched their heads.
"Take it, this is for you from your uncle, you are still young, you may not have seen so much money, but it doesn't matter, take it and squander it to your heart's content!"
Xiao Rui: "......"
Xiao Yu: "......"
Li Shimin: "......"
Princess Xiangcheng, who couldn't help it at first, looked at her father, husband and father-in-law with stunned looks, and she immediately covered her mouth and laughed.
And Empress Xiao was also familiar with Gao Ming's funny way, and when she looked at Princess Xiangcheng and smiled, she couldn't help laughing, shaking her head while laughing.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really ......"
At this time, Xiao Shoudao, the youngest in the field, suddenly grabbed Xiao Shouye's hand, and then stuffed the small piece of broken silver in his hand into Xiao Shouye's hand.
"Big brother, you can squander this money, I just have rice brocade made by my mother to eat."
Hearing his brother's words, Xiao Shouye shook his head, and then gave two small pieces of broken silver to Xiao Shoudao.
"Brother, I'm my brother, you should squander this money!"
Hearing the words of the two children, Gao Ming couldn't help but be happy, and gave a thumbs up to Princess Xiangcheng.
"Eldest sister, the child is well educated."
As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Xiao Yu next to him suddenly snorted coldly.
"Hmph, I know how to accept other people's property at a young age, so when I grow up, I won't loot the people's fat and people's ointment, it's really unreasonable!"
As soon as Xiao Yu's words fell, Princess Xiangcheng's eyes suddenly turned red, and the two children also lowered their heads, seeing this scene, Gao Ming suddenly jumped up.
"It's none of your business that I give my nephew money? Old man Xiao, don't be arrogant, don't forget that you were drunk by me yesterday! ”
Hearing Gao Ming's words, Xiao Yu also exploded, and jumped up with a "poof".
"So what? The old man calls you grandpa, do you dare to agree? ”
"If you have the ability, you can call, you see if I dare to agree!"
"Hmph, you're not afraid of losing your life!"
"Lao Tzu is willing, you can't care!"
Seeing that the old and the young were arguing again, Queen Xiao hurriedly glared at Xiao Yu.
"Shi Wen, hurry up and accompany Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Hearing Empress Xiao's words, Xiao Yu suddenly moved her lips, but she didn't say anything, and then simply turned her head over.
Seeing this scene, Empress Xiao had no choice but to sigh, and then bowed to Li Shimin and Gao Ming.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince, Shi Wen is just hard-mouthed, and he is usually reluctant to say a word to Xiangcheng!"
Hearing Empress Xiao's words, Xiao Rui immediately reacted, and quickly nodded.
"Yes, yes, usually even if I say something harsh, my father will reprimand me."
Although Li Shimin was happy to watch Xiao Yu eat deflated, at this time, in order to show generosity, he still nodded.
And Gao Ming didn't really want Xiao Yu to call him "grandpa", so when he saw that Xiao Yu didn't speak, he borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and didn't say more.
Since it was so unpleasant, Li Shimin and Gao Ming naturally couldn't have lunch in Xiaofu, after drinking a cup of tea, the two got up and left, and Xiaoyu's family sent Li Shimin and Gao Ming outside the house.
Standing outside the Xiao Mansion, Gao Ming glanced at the people in the Xiao Mansion, then sighed, and said to Xiao Yu in a serious tone: "Alas, Old Man Xiao, your ideas are too extreme, and your methods are too strong, which is not a good thing. ”
Hearing Gao Ming's words, Xiao Yu suddenly showed a look of disapproval.
"What advice does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have?"
Looking at him like this, Gao Ming immediately frowned.
"The water of the Yangtze River irrigates the fields of several provinces, and the water of the Yellow River also irrigates the fields of several provinces, so we can only use it without clear water, nor with turbidity and waste, Xiao servant shooting, as the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, you think about this truth yourself, I will leave first!"
After speaking, Gao Ming turned around and left very neatly, leaving Xiao Yu frowning and standing in place with a pensive expression.
It can be seen that Gao Ming's words just now really touched him.
In fact, not only Xiao Yu, but even Li Shimin's face showed a look of surprise.
"Don't use it because the water is clear, and don't use it because the water is turbid? Gao Ming can say this, it seems that he does have the qualifications to be an emperor, and maybe he has done a better job than me! ”
Thinking of this, Li Shimin glanced at Gao Ming, who was napping beside him, and then the ghost sent the god to say such a sentence.
"Gao Ming, why don't I give way to you!"
In fact, when Li Shimin said this, he regretted it, he didn't even know how to respond if Gao Ming said "good", so he could only stare at Gao Ming tightly.
After Gao Ming heard Li Shimin's words, he immediately opened his eyes a slit, then reached out and touched Li Shimin's forehead, and then retracted his hand and stuck it on his forehead, muttering a sentence in his mouth.
"I don't have a fever, why did I suddenly start talking nonsense?"
Seeing the scene in front of him, Li Shimin suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
"Gao Ming, you have shirked the blame several times, is my throne so unpopular with you?"
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Gao Ming immediately opened his eyes, and then smacked his mouth.
"Tsk, it's not that I don't like it, but the time hasn't come yet."
"The time has not yet come?"
Seeing Li Shimin's puzzled look, Gao Ming nodded suddenly.
"Yes, it's just that the time has not come, and your existence is the greatest deterrent to the five surnames and seven hopes, so before I am fledgling, I need you to help me suppress these clans for at least ten years, only in this way can there be hope for the future of Datang."
Gao Ming said this to Li Shimin for the first time, so after hearing his words, Li Shimin's expression became serious.
"And what if I don't live for ten years?"
"If that happens, I'll probably have to fight a civil war in my lifetime, because I'm not going to leave an unstable country to the next generation."
Speaking of this, Gao Ming immediately turned his head to look at Li Shimin and looked at him.
"I've already said before, this Tang Dynasty, when you can't carry it one day, I'll help you carry it!"
Hearing Gao Ming's words and looking at his firm gaze, Li Shimin immediately laughed.
"Hahahaha, worthy of being my son, but Gao Ming, I will never leave an unstable country to you, if there is really such a day, even if the country is unstable, I will solve them with my own hands."
Speaking of which, Li Shimin's eyes were already full of murderous intent.
