Li Shimin heard that Li Chengqian's anger in the East Palace was related to Li Xiu, and he also showed a silent expression at the moment, and the old chamberlain who reported hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "Your Majesty, it is said that the horse was not alone when he went to the south, but he came back ......."

"Shut up!" Before the old chamberlain finished speaking, he was severely interrupted by Li Shimin, and even his eyes were a little murderous, which made the old chamberlain tremble all over, and immediately knelt down and said, "The slave should die."

"In the future, if I hear that anyone dares to discuss this matter again, I will be killed!" Looking at the old chamberlain begging for mercy, Li Shimin finally said slowly, if it weren't for the sake of this old chamberlain who had served him for many years, and he usually needed him to pay attention to the movements in the palace, I am afraid that Li Shimin would really cut him on the spot.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, the slave is guilty, and I will never let anyone discuss this matter in the future!" When the old chamberlain heard that Li Shimin let him go, he was also relieved at the moment, and then thanked him loudly.

"Let's go down!" Li Shimin immediately waved his hand, and the old chamberlain was also relieved, and immediately left the Liangyi Hall backwards.

After the old chamberlain left, I saw Li Shimin ponder for a moment again, and then continued to deal with the official business in his hand, as if nothing had happened, and when it was almost the second watch, he finished the official business in his hand, and then stretched his waist and stood up.

"Someone!" I saw Li Shimin's command, and the old chamberlain from before trotted in again, in fact, this old chamberlain has always been in charge of Li Shimin's food, clothing, and daily life, and he is also a steward of the Feinu Division, specially responsible for monitoring the movements in the palace, so Li Shimin is generally inseparable from him.

"What's going on with the prince?" At this time, Li Shimin finally took the initiative to ask about Li Chengqian's situation, and at this time, it had been almost two hours since the last report of the old chamberlain.

"Your Majesty, the prince seems to be tired after smashing things, there has been no movement in the palace, and the people in the east palace dare not go in, so I don't know the prince's situation now, but the palace is very quiet, maybe the prince is tired and asleep." The old chamberlain reported again at this time, and the eyeliner he placed in the East Palace kept reporting the situation over there, but the time was too short, so the situation did not change much.

Hearing the report of the old chamberlain, Li Shimin pondered for a moment again, and then he opened his mouth and ordered: "Wait until tomorrow if the prince still hasn't eaten, report this matter to the queen!" ”

"No!" The old chamberlain immediately agreed, Empress Eldest Sun's health is not good, so if it is not necessary, Li Shimin does not want her to worry about the affairs of her children anymore.

"By the way, what is the pheasant slave doing all this time?" Li Shimin asked again at this time, pheasant slave is Li Zhi's nickname, pheasant means pheasant, slave is a nickname, because the nickname of Li Shimin's children is related to animals, such as Li Tai is a green finch, Li Zhi's pheasant slave, and there are also sons.

"Your Majesty, in addition to studying with a few gentlemen during this time, King Jin often goes to the horse to listen to lectures, and every time he brings Princess Jinyang, speaking of which, Princess Jinyang's body is much better during this time, and she can eat more than half a bowl when she eats." The old chamberlain spoke again at this time, he was almost punished for talking about Li Xiu before, so this time he also learned to be obedient, and even praised Li Xiu a few words through his son-in-law.

"Well, that's good!" It was rare to hear the good news of his children, Li Shimin couldn't help but smile a little, and then he asked again, "What about Qingque, what is he doing now?" ”

"Your Majesty, King Wei has been busy compiling the "Chronicles of the Universe" during this time, and I heard that it will take several years to complete the compilation." The old chamberlain replied again.

"Yes, yes, last time Qingque and I told me about the "Chronicles of the Universe", if this book can be compiled, it will also be a great achievement!" Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction again when he heard this, and it seemed to be swept away because of Li Chengqian's unhappiness before, which made the old chamberlain next to him secretly frightened, of course, he didn't dare to show anything on the surface, and even if this matter was rotten to his stomach, he didn't dare to tell anyone.

Early the next morning, when the first rays of sunlight in the morning shone through the window into the dormitory of the East Palace, it was best to fall on Li Chengqian, who had sat paralyzed under the pillar all night, but at this time Li Chengqian's face was blank, that is, there was no anger or sorrow, as if all feelings had left him overnight.

It was also the early morning sun that was a little dazzling, and finally Li Chengqian slowly twisted his neck, keeping his eyes out of the sun, and then stood up slowly with his support to the pillar, probably because he didn't move all night, so when he stood up, he felt that the bones in his whole body were a little stiff, especially the disabled foot was a burst of tingling, making him unable to even stand steadily,

In the end, Li Chengqian could only hold on to the pillar and recover for a while, and then he limped to the back of the bookcase and sat down, but after he sat down, he started to stay again, although he didn't eat or sleep for almost a day and a night, but he didn't feel hungry or sleepy, he just felt that his mind was empty, and he didn't have to think about anything when he sat there.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly I saw someone walking in from outside the hall, which made Li Chengqian also angry, and he just wanted to drive the people out, but when he looked up and saw the people who came in, he swallowed the words that came to his mouth again.

"Why are you here, Queen Mother?" I saw Li Chengqian stand up and salute at this time, the person who came in was none other than his biological mother, Empress Changsun, last year because of his foot disability, Empress Changsun had a serious illness, although he recovered some later, but his health was still not very good, and the whole person looked a little older.

"You still know my mother!" I saw Empress Changsun walking forward, but her face was as cold as frost, she only received the news of Li Chengqian's anger this morning, and immediately rushed over, and when she entered the hall, she also specially ordered everyone around her to stay outside, and walked in alone, because she didn't want outsiders to see her son's current appearance.

However, even if Empress Changsun was mentally prepared, when she saw Li Chengqian's current appearance, she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart, because now Li Chengqian's face was not only pale, but also extremely decadent, and her previous energetic son was like two people, which was also the most painful place for Empress Changsun.

"I ...... I'm fine, the queen doesn't have to worry about me! Li Chengqian's eyes didn't dare to look at Empress Eldest Sun at this time, and he said in an inaudible voice at the moment.

"Nothing? Why did you smash the dormitory like this, and why didn't you even eat, looking at your appearance, you must not have slept last night, right? At this time, Empress Changsun was trembling with anger, her body was not good, but now she was angry, and her face became even paler.

"Queen Mother, sit down first, I'm really fine, don't be angry!" Li Chengqian was still very filial to the eldest grandson, and when he saw his mother's appearance, he hurriedly stepped forward to help her and persuade her.

The eldest grandson queen is a stubborn character, and immediately shook off Li Chengqian's hand, and said with a very stern expression: "Chengqian, I know that since you have a leg disease, you have also fallen into a heart disease, this time I don't ask why you are so angry, but you must know that you are the prince of the Tang Dynasty, the prince of the world, and the entire Tang Dynasty will also need you to be in charge in the future, so no matter what kind of thing, you must cheer me up!" ”

Hearing his mother's lesson, Li Chengqian felt very aggrieved for some reason, and even wanted to throw himself into his mother's arms and cry bitterly, but in the end, he still held back his tears, and finally nodded heavily: "Erchen knows, mother rest assured, Erchen will never be so willful as he is today in the future!" ”

Maybe it was because of the sincerity on Li Chengqian's face that Empress Changsun finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and then sat down under Li Chengqian's support, and then said again in a serious tone: "Chengqian, you are the eldest son, from the moment you were born, you have more responsibilities than other brothers, and you also have to be a good example for the pheasant slaves, so don't blame your mother for being too strict with you." ”

"The father and the queen mother's expectations for the sons and daughters also know it, but they have been confused during this time, which has disappointed the father and the queen mother!" Li Chengqian finally couldn't help it at this time, and said while tears pouring out, according to Datang's standards, he is already an adult, and he will never show such a weak expression in front of others, but in front of his mother, he can't control his tears at all.

Seeing her son's tearful appearance, Empress Changsun was even more pitiful, and gently took him in her arms at the moment, but Li Chengqian completely let go of his usual disguise, and cried even more for a while, and finally wet Empress Changsun's clothes, and Empress Changsun also patted his back lovingly, although she hoped that her son would be stronger, but sometimes it was a good thing to vent the pain in her heart.

I don't know how long I cried, Li Chengqian slowly stopped crying, and then glanced at his mother embarrassedly, but Empress Changsun gently stretched out her handkerchief and wiped away the tears on her son's face.

"Cheng Qian, you haven't eaten for a day and a night, you must be hungry, I remember that you used to like to eat the meals I made the most, and I just happened to be free today, I'll cook you a few side dishes!" Empress Changsun saw that her son was no longer crying, and her complexion was much better, and she was also happy at the moment, and then she was ready to stand up and say.

"Queen Mother, don't worry about it, your sons can eat anything, so let the palace people prepare!" When Li Chengqian heard that his mother was going to cook for himself, he hurriedly helped her to stop him, after all, he really couldn't bear to let his sick mother cook for him.

"It's okay, my body is much better, and it's still okay to do it!" However, Empress Changsun insisted on standing up, but as soon as her words fell, I saw that her face suddenly turned pale, and her body shook a few times and fell forward all of a sudden!
