Chapter 302: Chang'an Sleepless Night

It was already late at night, Li Shimin lay on the bed but couldn't sleep, even if he forced himself to close his eyes, but there was still chaos in his mind, one would think of his father and brother's persecution of him, one would think of the support of his subordinates, and one would think of the countermeasures planned for him by the eldest grandson Wuji and other strategists, etc. The thoughts in the pen ~ fun ~ www.biquge.info the pavilion are like a marquee in the morning, which also causes Li Shimin to toss and turn in bed, and he can't sleep no matter what.

"Erlang, are you still thinking about the affairs of the court?" At this moment, I suddenly heard a gentle female voice next to me, and at the same time, a smooth arm stretched out, and then gently landed on Li Shimin's chest.

"Guanyin, why haven't you slept?" Li Shimin also sighed at this time, stretched out his hand and held the other party's small hand, the person who spoke was his wife Changsun, and Guanyin was her nickname.

"Erlang, you don't sleep, I haven't been able to sleep, Erlang, are you still thinking about your father forcing you to serve as the Zhongshu Order today?" The eldest grandson leaned against Li Shimin's side at this time, and then asked softly, she is not an ordinary woman who only knows how to teach her husband and children, and she is also very clear about the affairs of the court and politics.

"Yes, today my father forced me to take over the post of Zhongshu Order, on the surface, it seems that I will grasp the military and political power, but in fact, I want to take this opportunity to weaken the military power in my hands, and the military power is my biggest reliance, as for what Zhongshu and subordinates are empty!" The more Li Shimin spoke, the more excited he became, and even a little sad and angry in the end, only at this time could he unscrupulously reveal his true emotions.

When the eldest grandson heard Li Shimin's words, he suddenly hugged him with his arm hard, and his body trembled a little and said softly: "Erlang, I'm a little scared!" ”

"What are you afraid of, everything has me!" When Li Shimin heard these words of the eldest grandson, he couldn't help but comfort him at the moment.

"I ...... I'm afraid that my eldest brother will gain power in the future, what if I really don't give up on you, and there are also Cheng Qian and Liqian, I'm really worried about their safety in the future! The eldest grandson said again in a somewhat trembling voice.

The eldest grandson, who is familiar with history books, knows better than anyone the cruelty of the struggle for the throne, such as the famous Cao Zijian in history, even if he was famous before, but after the failure of the struggle for the throne, the end is still very miserable, and Li Shimin's reputation is much stronger than Cao Zhi, not to mention that he still holds the military power, and the army is full of his henchmen.

Hearing his wife mention his children, Li Shimin also felt his heart twitch, and his eyes suddenly widened, as a father and a husband, how can he not even protect his wife and children, what kind of man is that?

Thinking of the above, Li Shimin suddenly sat up, which made the eldest grandson also startled, and just wanted to say something, but saw Li Shimin stand up and say while getting dressed: "Guanyin, I have something to go to your eldest brother's place, you take care of the child at home!" ”

"Well, be careful on your way!" When the eldest grandson heard that Li Shimin was going to find his eldest brother, he also knew that he must have something important, so she didn't ask more. I saw that Li Shimin was dressed at this time, and then nodded at the eldest grandson, and then strode out of the bedroom.

Li Shimin's family lives in the Chengqian Hall in the palace, located on the west side of the palace, he went out of the palace directly to the west out of the palace gate, and then left the palace with a horse, although there is a curfew in Chang'an City, but with Li Shimin's identity, it is natural that all the way can be unblocked.

In fact, in order to facilitate the contact with Li Shimin, he also set up his home not far from the west side of the palace, which is only half an hour's road away from Li Shimin's Chengqian Palace.

Li Shimin came to the door of the eldest grandson Wuji's mansion to call the door, and then was immediately invited in, and the people in the mansion also quickly went to invite the eldest grandson Wuji to come, and Li Shimin went to the front hall to drink tea and wait, but after a while, he saw the eldest grandson Wuji walking in quickly and said: "Your Highness can't sleep too?" ”

"Mowgli, do you think we really have no way back?" Li Shimin stared at the eldest grandson Wuji with blazing eyes at this time, he didn't come here to gossip with the eldest grandson Wuji, so he went straight to the point.

The eldest grandson Wuji was also refreshed when he heard Li Shimin's words, and he said with a heavy brow: "Your Highness Hugh must ask knowingly, Your Majesty has repeatedly suppressed His Highness before, and wants to break up the military power of Tiance Mansion by any means, and now he suddenly issued an order for His Highness to serve as the Zhongshu Order, you must know that Zhongshu holds the power of decision-making and is the core of the three provinces and six ministries, how can such an important position be easily allowed?" ”

I saw that the eldest grandson Wuji paused when he said this, and then he spoke again: "But this time, Your Majesty suddenly handed over such an important position to His Highness, and there was no rumor in advance, which is enough to show that Your Majesty has made perfect preparations, even if it is to make King Qi a servant together, on the surface it is a reward for His Highness's two brothers, but in fact it is aimed at His Highness, I am sure that the next time is when Your Majesty will vigorously dismantle the Tiance Mansion!" ”

After Li Shimin listened to these words of the eldest grandson Wuji, he was silent for a long time, and after a long time, he finally spoke again: "Wuji, what you said is right, my father suddenly gave me an official position, which seems to be good, but in fact, I am already ready to tear my face and harden it, in the face of this situation, can we only take the last step?" ”

"Your Highness, it's indeed time to make up your mind!" Eldest Sun Wuji said with a firm expression, he naturally knew what the last step Li Shimin was talking about, in fact, he had already suggested that Li Shimin do it.

However, hearing the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Shimin suddenly hesitated at this time, the expression on his face was also uncertain, and he did not make a decision for a long time, which made the eldest grandson Wuji next to him more and more anxious, and finally suddenly had an idea, and then deliberately sighed and said: "Your Royal Highness is a person who values feelings, and it is understandable if you are really ruthless, but Cheng Qian and Li Zhen are still young, His Royal Highness sent Cheng Qian to Li Xiu to study before, if something really happens, Li Xiu and the princess may also be difficult to keep Cheng Qian, However, Lizhi is a girl, Your Highness might as well send her over as soon as possible, and with the strength of the princess, she will definitely be able to protect her for the rest of her life! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji is a brother who has played with Li Shimin since he was a child, and he knows his character best, Li Chengqian and Li Liqing, these children, are simply Li Shimin's heart, and the mention of them can definitely stimulate Li Shimin's ferocity.

Sure enough, when Li Shimin heard his son and daughter, his eyes turned red all of a sudden, and his expression became a little hideous, and after a long while, he finally spoke: "Okay, Wuji, you prepare in secret, and come up with a detailed plan, if the father is really ruthless, then don't blame me for being unrighteous!" ”

"No!" Seeing that Li Shimin finally made up his mind, the eldest grandson Wuji immediately agreed excitedly, his hard work was finally not in vain, and Li Shimin finally made the right decision, although this decision is just a gamble, but it may not be impossible to succeed, if it can really succeed, then it will be a smooth road in the future.

In fact, not only did Li Shimin not sleep tonight, but Li Jiancheng in the East Palace also did not sleep, but he couldn't sleep because of excitement, so he called his fourth brother Li Yuanji to accompany him to drink.

"Big brother, I'll toast you!" I saw that Li Yuanji was already a little drunk at this time, but he still raised his wine glass and smiled at Li Jiancheng, who was sitting opposite.

"Fourth brother, drink a few fewer drinks, otherwise your younger brother and sister will talk about you again when you go back!" Li Jiancheng was also in a very good mood today, and at this time, he even made a joke about Li Yuanji.

"Haha~, what do women know?" Li Yuanji waved his hand indifferently when he heard this, and then smiled again, "Today, eldest brother, you also saw the appearance of the second brother, you want to refuse but you can't pull your face, and in the end you can only accept the appointment of your father with a bitter face, I bet he will definitely not be able to sleep tonight!" ”

"Hehe, the second brother was indeed caught off guard by his father today, and he must have guessed what his father was going to do next, but even if he guessed, his father was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and he could only obediently hand over the military power!" Li Jiancheng also said a little proudly at this time, he knew in advance about the appointment of Li Shimin as the Zhongshu Order, but he didn't tell anyone, even if Li Yuanji didn't know in advance, in order to avoid leaking the news, and the current effect seems to be very good.

"Big brother, after the second brother's military power is cut, but his prestige in the army will not be eliminated in a while, and there is still a possibility of resurgence in the future, I think it is better to be ruthless......"

Before Li Yuanji's words were finished, he was glared back by Li Jiancheng's stern eyes, and then said in a heavy tone: "Yuanji, our brothers are fighting for the rest, but after all, they are compatriots of the same mother, if your second brother has no military power in the future, he will not want his life, and he will be locked up in the Chengqian Palace, surrounded by heavy soldiers, and there will be no need to worry about him contacting the outside world, let alone stirring up any big waves!" ”

"Hehe, eldest brother, you are kind-hearted, but not everyone may be like you, for example, if the second brother finally wins the throne, I'm afraid he won't be merciful to our brother!" Li Yuanji is also a strong temper, and he is still a little unconvinced at this time, but his voice is much quieter.

"No case, the second brother is already a fish in the net, no matter how much you struggle, it's useless, and then it depends on how the father and emperor break up the Tiance Mansion, I have a way to take down the entire Tiance Mansion together, but this matter still needs the assistance of the fourth brother!" Li Jiancheng said confidently, as if all the situation was under his control. (To be continued.) )
