Chapter 291: Disposition
Li Su walked into the palace and looked at it, and was happy - Qibi Wuyun had a big belly, and like several princesses, everyone wore helmets and armor. At a young age, Wu Cong's armor was like a battle robe, and she was struggling to hold a spear in her hand. Behind them was a group of soldiers armed with weapons.
He said, "Ladies, which one are you singing?" He smiled upward, but his heart was very moved.
Seeing Li Su come back safely, the princesses cheered and threw the knives and guns in their hands to the ground. The rest of the palace was cheering.
One by one, the lady burst into tears.
Just when everyone was in high spirits, Qibi Wuyun screamed, clutching his stomach and breaking out in a cold sweat.
"Quickly pass on the imperial doctor, the crown princess is about to give birth!" There was chaos in the Liang Palace.
"Wow", soon, a baby's cry sounded, and a midwife shouted: "Prince, the princess has given birth, she is a little princess, and the mother and son are safe." ”
Li Su was ecstatic in his heart, and he was very emotional: "It's like a dream, I traveled to the Tang Dynasty and not only became a prince, but also a father." ”
Concubine Yang, who rushed to hear the news, hugged her newborn grandson and smiled from ear to ear. Wu Lu saw the little face of the baby Zou Baba and said, "Oh, why is he so ugly?" ”
Concubine Yang smiled: "When you were just born, you were like this. It didn't take long for him to look good. ”
King Liang's mansion was full of joy.
Besides, Tang Taizong Li Shimin returned to the palace and hurriedly came to see Empress Changsun. When he saw the eldest grandson queen fainting on the bed, he was very angry. He asked, "What about the eldest grandson Wuji?" ”
The maid didn't dare to bully the king, and said, "Grandpa Guo has left." ”
Li Shimin said: "What are you still doing in a daze? Tell the Imperial Doctor. ”
Soon the imperial physician came, and after a while, Empress Eldest Sun woke up.
Li Shimin was very angry and was ready to scold her. But when he saw the pale face of Empress Eldest Sun, he felt some pity in his heart. He sighed and said, "You can rest first, and I will come to see you later." ”
Empress Changsun knew that Li Shimin was angry, and she was also angry with herself. For so many years, she has always adhered to her ethics and assisted Li Shimin wholeheartedly. But the incident in front of her made her feel very ashamed.
She didn't say anything, closed her eyes and rested.
Li Shimin glanced at Empress Changsun again and left the Lizheng Palace.
The next day, the crown prince's canonization ceremony was held as scheduled. Chang'an City is empty of thousands of people, and the grand occasion is unprecedented.
The eldest grandson Wuji has been staying at home for the past few days, he thought about it for a few days, and then went out.
Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin's study.
"Your Majesty, the minister is here to ask you for your guilt." The eldest grandson Wuji said.
Li Shimin said: "Auxiliary, you are my hair and my uncle." You've been a great support to me for so many years......"
On this morning, Li Shimin chatted with his eldest grandson Wuji about the eventful years they had experienced together in the past.
In the end, the eldest grandson Wuji said sincerely: "Your Majesty, in the matter of establishing the crown prince, the minister has gone a little too far. Please let the emperor punish the sins of his ministers. ”
Li Shimin said: "Auxiliary, he knows all the things you did to the prince, and there are no less than 100 copies of the impeachment of you. I asked him what he thought of you, and you know what he said? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji asked, "What did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say?" ”
Li Shimin said: "The prince said, you are absolutely loyal to me and the Tang Dynasty, and you are a person who can be trusted. In terms of talent, he is also a top figure in the imperial court, and he is also a talent that can be relied on. As for doing something wrong, for the sake of family affection, it is understandable.
The prince said that as long as you can put aside your past suspicions and be loyal to the court in the future, he will not pursue your previous affairs. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji was very moved when he heard this, and he said: "Thank you for the tolerance of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has kindness to the Queen Mother, Cheng Qian, Yangcheng and Chong'er. The minister was confused for a while, and repaid virtue with resentment, which was really shameless.
In the future, the minister will definitely change his past wrongs, be loyal to the emperor, assist the prince, and do his best for the Tang Dynasty. ”
Li Shimin said happily: "Auxiliary, it's good that you have this attitude." Comments on your handling. Do you think this will work?
Originally, my advice was to let you retire, but the prince's opinion was to let you continue to work. In order to give Li Xiaogong and them an explanation, I thought twice and decided to let you leave Chang'an temporarily and go to be the envoy of Anxi Xuanfu. When you make a result, I'll transfer you back in two years.
The prince suggested that the eldest grandson Chong was outstanding and promoted him from the middle of the matter (on the fifth grade) to the middle of the household (on the fourth grade). ”
Changsun Chong's transfer this time is not only from the fifth grade, but also from the fourth grade, up, and the fourth grade, and he has been promoted to four levels in a row, the key is that he has been transferred from an ordinary civil official with no real power to the real power department of the household department. The difference is too great.
The eldest grandson Wuji said very gratefully: "Thank you to the emperor, thank you to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." As he spoke, tears of gratitude flowed out.
Seeing the attitude of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Shimin felt a lot better.
The eldest grandson Wuji was relegated to the Western Regions, and the next thing was to deal with Li Ke, Li Tai and Li You.
Also in Li Shimin's study.
Li Shimin and Li Su discussed the arrangements for the princes alone.
Li Shimin asked: "What do you think about the treatment of Li Ke, Li Tai and Li You?" ”
Li Su said: "Father, the three of them are the elder brothers of the sons, and the previous things were all because of the prince's affairs, so they fought with each other. They didn't do anything to be sorry for their father.
Erchen thinks that you are their father, and their mothers are in Chang'an, so it is better to let them stay in Chang'an and serve their parents in order to fulfill their filial piety.
As the saying goes, 'nothing does wrong', and find them something concrete to do.
Li Ke has been demoted to the king of the county, so he will keep it like this first. The imperial court encouraged agriculture and mulberry, and water conservancy was a major event. Erchen believes that the water conservancy department can be separated from the engineering department and set up a second-level department, called the Ministry of Water Resources, and let Li Ke be in charge of it and specialize in water conservancy construction.
Establishment of a literary research institute. Li Tai was temporarily demoted to the rank of county prince and was in charge of the Academy of Literature, specializing in the compilation of the "Tuodi Chronicles" and the "Five Classics of Justice".
As for Li You, he is now detained and is a concubine, so this is not good. It's better to let him out, give him the title of a third-class duke, and be an idle nobleman.
There is also Li Zhi, who is diligent and studious, and has excellent moral character. Erchen planned to let him succeed Erchen as the director of the research institute. What do you think? ”
Li Shimin was very satisfied with the prince's magnanimity, he nodded and said, "Well, that's good." However, in the matter of Li Tai and Li You, I am afraid that many ministers will have opinions. ”
