"Since childhood, the child slave has been the most carefree and loved child. He is also the child who has been taught by her the most. Let me ask you, if today, worry-free is still there, and this music and dance festival is arranged by her, do you still think it is like this, is there anything strange? ”

Wang De thought for a moment and nodded: "That's right...... If the mother comes, it is normal. ”

Taizong nodded again: "So, I know that among the few children, only the child can do this." A glimpse of the leopard, from this incident, you can see the intelligence of the childish slave, I am afraid that he is the most like his mother among these children. But it is precisely because he has been with his mother for too long that he has learned too much about his mother's personality, the only forbearance and benevolence that should not be, and even more than that......

So after that, although I always tried to teach by example, I even took him behind the court to let him see some scenes that he always had to see...... But his forbearance and benevolence, over the years, are still the same, or even more powerful.

Wang De...... Among my sons, my favorite is Cheng Qian. He is most like me after he ascended the throne, and he is also the most benevolent, so I can rest assured that I will hand over the country to him, and let him turn this Tang dynasty into a legend for future generations, and become a generation of famous monarchs who are not inferior to me.

The most favored is Qingque, he is the most intelligent, so I hope that he can make a career and make a name for himself in future generations, so that he will not be buried in the prestige that his brother will inevitably have in the future.

The most beloved is Ke'er, he is both civil and military, and he is a man who is unrestrained and wild, like me when he was in the palace of the Qin Dynasty, so I named him Ke, hoping that he can abide by the etiquette, and in the future, he will not be affected by his vicious mother because of a little mistake, and by a group of courtiers who are suspicious of his bloodline, he can live his life in peace and stability, and make a famous career for himself and the Tang Dynasty.

And the most beloved ...... But he is a childish slave.

Among the children, only he is the least like me, although his appearance is now more like me, but his temperament, his state of mind, is more and more like his mother, I am carefree.

Wang De, others don't know, you should know, worry-free early death is the pain of my life, and this pain can not be calmed until I go down to the Yellow Spring and see worry-free. ”

Speaking of this, Taizong's face was already full of tears:

"Therefore, I really can't look at the young slave like his mother, unhappy, unhappy, and restrained everywhere. I'd rather him rejoice in himself and do something decisive......

I don't want to see him like this, and I have suffered myself for the so-called leniency......

Wang De, I'm getting old...... Although I don't want to admit it, every time I see myself in the mirror, I already feel that I am really old.

Therefore, the days when I can take care of this child and protect this child are long.

If, in these short days, I can no longer teach him to learn to protect himself and make a good plan for him, you say, how can I see him in the future? ”

Taizong finally couldn't help it, and whimpered:

"On the wedding night, I promised to be carefree, and I wanted to ensure that she would have no worries for the rest of her life. In the end, I failed to fulfill my promise to be a carefree and happy woman for the rest of her life......

Now, now that I am the Son of Heaven and hold the power of the world, I can't even keep a child's life worry-free......

How can I be worthy of being a father and a husband? How can I meet my beloved wife? My worries? ”

A kind of heartache, a kind of pain buried in Taizong's chest, which never disappeared, but gradually penetrated into the bone marrow, finally tonight, erupted and poured out, turning into echoes in the hall, almost inaudible, bursts of silent crying of grief.

Wang De silently accompanied him on the side and cried bitterly together.

Yes, only Wang De knows why Taizong, who seems to be in high spirits, has been more diligent in political affairs over the years - he just doesn't want to face the palace without his beloved wife, this cold palace.

Only Wang De knows that over the years, every time the eldest grandson empress's birthday, death day, the day the two first met, the marriage Sunday (anniversary), and even the late night of his birthday, everyone will fall asleep......

Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the extremely virtuous monarch, the saint who always takes the happiness of the people in the world as his responsibility, the ** four concubines and seventy concubines, and the saint of thousands of palace women, quietly lost state affairs, abandoned beauties, forgot about the political affairs of the country, hugged the wine, took Wang De alone, rode a horse to Zhaoling, held the love token with him, and cried drunk.

Whenever this happens, Wang De always guards silently and never persuades. Because he knows, and only he knows, if it weren't for that, I was afraid that he wouldn't even be able to get over the worry-free anniversary, and he would end up depressed because of sadness and the pain of longing.

Wang De knew that in this huge palace, only Wang De knew what he was for, step by step on the throne, and became the king of this thousand years.

For the sake of all the people in the world, you will be safe and secure, for your own dreams and hopes, four points.

The remaining six points are just to keep his beloved wife and son, not to die in the struggle of the palace, and not to fall into the hands of others.

Wang De knows these things very well, and he knows them very well. Whether it is now or in the future, those who can understand Li Shimin's thoughts, this kind of emotion, will never have it again.

He knows better what kind of evaluation will be given to this man in the future.

But he won't explain to Li Shimin, let alone let people know Li Shimin's thoughts.

Because these belong to Li Shimin. It has nothing to do with others, has nothing to do with history, has nothing to do with the country......

The world only needs to know that he is a good king, a good husband, and a good father.

That's enough...... Because Li Shimin doesn't want others to know his mind, in addition to worry-free, including his children, he doesn't want his children to know. So, enough is enough.

Wang De silently read in his heart:

Yes......

That's enough.

The next morning.

The prince's middle school scholar Ma Zhou played, invited Taizong to rule the second of the four ladies, the concubine Yang ignored the national law, and the beauty Zheng in the palace used private law without permission, and still dared to do unscrupulous things under the false evidence, and even disregarded his own humility, and overtook the five talented people Wu in front, and lynched and tortured in the back. Sin should be reduced to a lower rank.

Taizong angrily reprimanded him for not knowing etiquette, the beauty Zheng was born noble, pure in nature, and was frightened by this when he first entered the palace, if Concubine Shu did not rule it by law, he was afraid that the court would be polluted and poisoned.

However, Ma Zhou played strongly, and if he was afraid that the court would be foul and poisonous, then the case should be examined in detail in order to find the real culprit, and it should not be so hasty. He also said that the Zheng family had already taken precautions, but it was not known that someone would design a frame-up.

When Taizong heard this, he was quite alarmed, so he allowed it to be played, and ordered Dali Temple Zhengwei to wait for the price to supervise the case.

……

It's night.

In the Prince's Palace.

The young slave looked at the eldest brother who was drunk and asleep, and his heart was entangled.

As expected, Ma Zhou played and was approved.

He should be happy. But for some reason, I couldn't be happy.

It turned out that in his father's mind, he was really just a child, a child who just coaxed.

When it comes to major events, if he is still a five-grade official, he is more useful than him.

Tightly, he clenched the glass in his hand.

Originally......

Only pampering is useless...... I can't protect her.

Originally......

Only power......

to protect her.

can make her worry-free for the rest of her life.

With a "cluck", the secret color porcelain cup cracked in response.

In an instant, blood flowed from his fingers.

The color of blood actually stained his eyes red, making those eyes, which were originally like the clear sky on a snowy night, float with a layer of blood.

At the same time, Jiucheng Palace was imprisoned.

Taizong stood in front of Mei Niang's cell, and the prison man hurriedly opened the lock, but his eyes were only staring at the little woman in the prison, holding her knees, and looking at the sky.

The lock opened, Wang De pushed the door open, and Taizong walked in slowly.

After examining her, he said, "It seems that they are still cruel to you." ”

As he spoke, he sat on the circle chair brought by the prison servant and looked at her. Wang De, who was beside him, put the food on the table in the same way.

Finally, a jug of wine was served.

Taizong waved his hand, Wang De left and right, Wang De looked at Mei Niang again, and then went out, personally hugged the dust, guarded outside the prison, and did not teach others to approach. Keep a closer eye on the cells on either side that are not at all empty to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.

Mei Niang Mu Ran turned her face - fortunately, this time, there was no injury on her face.

"Do you hate me?"

Taizong personally poured a glass of wine and slowly pushed it in front of her.

Mei Niang looked at the wine, slowly moved around, picked it up, and looked up, with some light in her eyes:

"That's not what Your Majesty meant. Mei Niang knows. ”

"What you don't know is why I obviously hate that Yang Shufei so much, but I don't want to rectify her with such a great opportunity. Really? ”

Taizong asked.

Mei Niang nodded, poured another cup for herself, and served it in front of Taizong:

"When His Majesty summoned Mei Niang to play chess at night, Mei Niang already knew that His Majesty seemed to be the most fond of Concubine Shu Niang among the four concubines, but in fact, the person who hated Concubine Niangniang the most was Your Majesty.

But Mei Niang really doesn't know, Your Majesty is now stable, and there are successors, and this lady has always been criticized by the ministers. There are countless people who want to get rid of her and then be happy, why has Your Majesty kept her until now - Your Majesty doesn't need to explain much, Mei Niang knows that this incident has nothing to do with Concubine Shu, and that Zheng Meiren seems to be Concubine Niangniang's mother's family, but I'm afraid it will also be with ...... It has nothing to do with Nawei Zhaorong. ”

Taizong shook his head with a smile: "After all, you are still a child after all." Too naïve.

I only ask you. Then the Zheng family, if it weren't for Concubine Shuken, would she be able to enter the Imperial Palace? ”

Mei Niang was silent, knowing Taizong's intentions, and finally said: "After all, she is Niangniang's mother's family, and it is always bad for Niangniang to refuse." ”

"You also said that Concubine Shu has a special status, and I don't understand why I can keep her until now...... Since she has a special identity, isn't her mother's family identity special? Everyone in the palace said that Concubine Shu was cautious in her words and deeds, as if she did it every day, how could she let herself be the body of a former court daughter, and she was suspicious of everyone who was forming a party for personal gain and plotting against her? ”

Mei Niang opened her mouth and thought for a long time before she said, "I'...... Maybe it's the lady concubine, I believe in Your Majesty, and I won't doubt her. ”

"She does believe it, or is very confident, and I will not doubt her."

Taizong said: "Because she hasn't done anything bad, she just knows that others are doing bad things for a long time, and pretends not to know, or let them do it." ”

Mei Niang's heart was cold.

Taizong added: "Or, when she sees that others have evil thoughts of use, she makes some small hints and inadvertently mentions them." It was as natural as inadvertently dropping a knife in front of a murderer who wanted to kill her enemy. ”

Mei Niang only felt that it was cold in this prison, so she couldn't help but pick herself up and said in a trembling voice:

"If Your Majesty knows everything, why do you ...... Isn't it, doesn't the lady lady know about your ......?"

"She may or may not know." Taizong was indifferent: "But she won't care."

Because she knew that I would not kill her unless she did something deserving of death. He wouldn't even move her. ”

Mei Niang trembled and asked:

"Why? Because she's ......"

"Because she is the daughter of the former dynasty, more than half of the civil and military officials in the Tang Dynasty are now the former ministers of the Great Sui who changed their official names and continued to stay here. If I kill her, the good ministers who have been my enemies will be afraid.

And because she is the mother of my beloved son, killing her will disappoint my beloved son.

Also, in front of my mother's tablet, I promised the queen that as long as she didn't make a big mistake, I couldn't kill her, and I would spare her life and let her die in the palace......

And most importantly......"

Taizong leaned forward slightly and looked into Mei Niang's eyes: "If it weren't for her to provoke the design, my eldest brother and fourth brother would not have broken with me, and I would not have lost my eldest brother who loved me the most since childhood, and my most loving brother......

If it weren't for her persuasion, my nephews would not have died at the hands of my best brothers, leaving them with a blood debt, and it would be difficult to be at peace with me.

If it weren't for her persuasion, my queen would not have died early because of years of overwork......

Therefore, I want her to live, to live with food and clothing, to live with pets and love.

She said she wanted my love, but I didn't love her.

Originally, I accepted a royal wife in order to marry families, and now there is another reason for her to watch my love fall on others, so that those women who are loved because they look like my beloved wife can live happily every day, so that she understands that she will never be loved by me in her life......

What I want is for her to live, to live in pain. Death is a relief for her, I want her to live, life is better than death. ”

Mei Niang looked at Taizong with a gloomy expression in front of her in horror, hugged herself, and retreated again and again.
