Chapter 395: The Prince Wants Power
Kong Yingda knelt on the ground and buried his head in complaining. "It's about the prince, Weichen didn't dare to talk nonsense, and Zhang Xuansu, who was also present that day, was also present. At that time, Mr. Zhang's plea for me was unsuccessful, and he was also kicked out. ”
"Shao Zhan has been kicked out?" Li Shimin's face was pale, and his mood was estimated to be on the verge of going berserk.
Kong Yingda bowed to Li Shimin. "Back to Your Majesty, the minister doesn't dare to say anything, whether the minister is making up nonsense, you can ask Shao Zhan to know."
"No need." Li Shimin helped Kong Yingda up. "I already know about this matter, what Qian'er did wrong, I will make amends on my behalf, and I hope that Kong will sacrifice wine regardless of the past suspicions and teach Qian'er well."
Li Shimin personally apologized, Kong Yingda was deeply moved, pointed to the sky and swore that he would definitely assist the prince well, and he would definitely live up to Li Shimin's expectations. After greeting Li Shimin for a while, he said goodbye and left.
Li Shimin kept sending Kong Ying to the gate of the palace, and before leaving, he specially instructed Kong Yingda about the students in Guozi Prison.
After Kong Yingda left, Li Shimin's face gradually sank.
The eunuchs around him saw that Li Shimin's face was not very good, and they all lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to take a breath.
"Wanfu?"
Wanfu hurriedly stepped forward and responded: "The old slave is here." ”
"Go and send a pastry to Tai'er, and I will also send a jar of good wine I just got from Chen Fei, by the way, the mink coat that the Silla envoy paid tribute to yesterday will also be delivered, and tell Tai'er, the weather is cold, take good care of your body."
Wan Fu hurriedly responded and ordered people to prepare things.
"By the way, go and call Cai He, I have something to discuss with him."
Wanfu hesitated for a moment, and stepped forward to persuade: "Your Majesty, it's so late, isn't it appropriate to pass on Cai He again?" ”
It's a pity that Li Shimin happened to be angry, and Wanfu's advice made Li Shimin unhappy.
"It's not too late for me, is it too late for him? Call someone for me! ”
Wanfu was startled, hurriedly confessed, and left in a hurry with people.
In less than a stick of incense, Cai He rode a horse, approved a few clothes at random and hurried to the gate of the palace, and entered the palace from the side gate under the leadership of the eunuch to meet Li Shimin.
This time, Li Shimin retired a group of eunuchs, leaving Cai He alone to discuss something in the palace. Half an hour later, Cai He came out of the palace with a solemn face, got on his horse, and did not go back in the direction he came, but turned around and left by a different route, as for where he went...... Unknown.
The next day, the sun shone on the snow on the streets, and many people came out of their homes to move chairs and sit on the street outside, enjoying the rare winter sunshine.
Towards the end of the year, Chang'an City seemed to be deserted, and many outsiders returned to their hometowns one after another. But the people who live in the city are still lively.
The little kid having a snowball fight, the woman drying the clothes, and the man shouting for the sale. Everyone is enjoying a peaceful life, and the Tang Dynasty, which has been fighting for many years, seems to have really entered a stable period from now on.
The Turks were wiped out, Tuguhun was also beaten down, and Tubo was beaten and fled back to the plateau.
The people seem to see a beautiful and peaceful tomorrow, and Chang'an also shows his thriving side under the reflection of the snow.
It's just that ordinary people don't seem to feel that there seems to be an unusual atmosphere above the court, and the undercurrent is surging, as if it will lead to earth-shattering changes.
Early this morning, Li Shimin officially raised the issue of the ownership of the Qi Workshop.
Prior to this, Qi Gongfang did not belong to the three provinces and six ministries, but belonged to a special department. Maybe it's because he's not that important, so he's been forgotten in the corner and not mentioned.
But now, if nothing else, just talking about the thunderbolt is enough to produce a dazzling performance. Moreover, many people thought that the thunderbolt fire was too dangerous, and put forward a lot of management advice, and the notebook was piled up on Li Shimin's desk.
Rao is Li Shimin wanted to avoid this topic and quietly occupied the strange workshop, but he was also tossed by the ministers and had to take it out for discussion.
To say that this strange workshop, there are also the creation of utensils inside, as well as agricultural research, which belongs to a relatively comprehensive department, between the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War, and it is difficult to belong to management.
The important thing is that Li Shimin did not want to give up the management of this department at all, because the thunderbolt fire was too dangerous, and the danger could make Li Shimin unable to eat or sleep.
If it weren't for the fact that many ministers mentioned this matter in their concerts, I am afraid that Li Shimin would not have talked about the strange workshop in the court.
The ownership of the strange workshop is also a sensitive matter, although many ministers have made a statement, but it is really brought to the court to discuss, but no one has come forward.
No one wants to be a bird, but everyone wants a piece of the pie, which is the true portrayal of the hearts of many ministers.
Li Shimin looked at the most fierce people in the court, but now they were indifferent, and sneered. It doesn't matter if they don't speak, the Qi Workshop can be firmly in Li Shimin's own hands!
"Since you Aiqing have no opinions, then the strange workshop is still..."
"Father, slow down!" Li Chengqian suddenly arched his hand towards Li Shimin and interrupted Li Shimin's words.
Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian with some displeasure, if it wasn't his own son, I'm afraid he would want to go up and kick him a few times, wouldn't it be a mess for him to make a noise at this time?
"Father." Li Chengqian got down from the chair listening to the government with the support of the eunuch, and said: "Father, the strange workshop is responsible for building the thunderbolt fire, this thing is too threatening, if it is in the hands of outsiders, I am afraid it will not be reassuring, what the son means is that the workshop still maintains the original system, but the management inside... You should send a trustworthy person to take care of it, preferably a relative......"
Li Shimin naturally understood that Li Chengqian's inner little Jiujiu was unhappy with his hand to ask for power, but he didn't show much on the surface, but just bluntly refused. "Li Zhuo is my nephew in terms of seniority, and he can be regarded as a relative, it is enough to have him, don't mention this matter again, Qian'er, you should step back first."
Li Chengqian seemed to have expected Li Shimin's reaction, and he was not depressed, but slightly, looked up at Li Shimin, and immediately lowered his head.
"Father, the son doesn't mean that, the son means that although Li Zhuo can be regarded as a relative of the emperor, the blood is a little far away, and it still can't make people feel at ease."
"Oh? Who do you think is up to it? Could it be that you can't do it? In the end, Li Shimin's tone already had a hint of coldness.
The ministers also expressed their incomprehension of Li Chengqian's unusual behavior today.
Thunderbolt is such a sensitive thing, the prince actually reached out in front of so many ministers to ask for it? Is this a brain caught in the door? Doesn't he know how Li Shimin got to power? With the same tragedy, will he let things happen to him?
Don't be funny, okay?
Li Chengqian didn't seem to care about the opinions of others, even Li Shimin, but gently spit out six words. "Brother She, Wu Wang Li Ke."
Now writing four chapters is like a human life, and it takes a lot of brains, too much brains.
