Obviously, Li Shimin did this on purpose. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Although the crown prince Li Chengqian has a poor character, he is definitely not a stupid person, Li Shimin left Li Tai, the king of Wei, alone at this time, which clearly meant to show off to the ministers.
Didn't the ministers just now think that the prestige of the crown prince Li Chengqian was high enough for Li Tai, the king of Wei, to submit, then he, Li Shimin, would now favor Li Tai, the king of Wei, so that the hundred officials in the court would be shaken by their previous feelings, and let them feel that Li Shimin was actually the most favored by Li Tai, the king of Wei.
The crown prince Li Chengqian knew that Li Shimin was beating him, and even gave the ministers an impression that although the prince was the prince, he also had the possibility of being deposed.
And in this way, the prestige of the crown prince Li Chengqian's previous hard work will be greatly reduced.
But even if the crown prince Li Chengqian understood Li Shimin's intentions, he couldn't say anything, so he could only snort coldly, waved his sleeves and got into the carriage, and hurried to the East Palace.
For Li Shimin's dictation, Li Tai, the king of Wei, was a little surprised, but he was also a little excited, if it was about intelligence, he was stronger than the crown prince Li Chengqian, so he naturally saw Li Shimin's intentions, and when he knew that his father intended to promote himself, how could he not be excited?
After receiving the order again and again, Li Tai, the king of Wei, entered the imperial study with his father-in-law who came to deliver the message.
In the imperial study, Li Shimin casually found some topics to chat with Li Tai, the king of Wei, for example, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, your body can still stand it, is it uncomfortable when you went to the early dynasty, or how about giving you a super large carriage for your father?
Li Shimin called Li Tai, the king of Wei, to stay and have the intention of showing the ministers, and really wanted him to talk to Li Tai, the king of Wei, about other things, and he was really a little embarrassed for a while, although the two were father and son, how could they really want other folk fathers and sons to enjoy family affection like that?
Li Tai, the king of Wei, was still very useful to Li Shimin's words of concern to him, but he felt embarrassed when he heard too many such words, so he brought the topic to the matter of the Literature Museum again.
Li Shimin once ran a literature museum and had experience in this matter, although Li Tai, the king of Wei, had his own plans and methods, but for the sake of humility, he felt that it was better to ask some things related to the literature museum.
Li Shimin was also quite complacent about the establishment of the Literature Museum back then, so he had to brag to Li Tai, the king of Wei, of course, Li Shimin, as the son of the Tang Dynasty, it is impossible to boast excessively, after all, he has no need to do it at all.
After saying a few smug words, Li Shimin had to remind Li Tai, the king of Wei, of the things that should be paid attention to.
The father and son said this, but they were also happy.
And just as the two of them were saying this, a eunuch hurriedly ran over and said, "Holy Lord, Tang Xiaohou asks to see you." ”
Li Shimin sighed and said with a smile: "What is he doing at this time, announce him in." ”
After the eunuch received the order, he brought Tang Zhou in after a short time, Li Shimin saw Tang Zhou and asked, "Come to see me at this time, but what is the matter?" ”
Tang Zhou bowed his head and said with a smile: "I don't know if the saint still remembers the gambling contract with the minister a month ago?" ”
Hearing Tang Zhou's words, Li Tai, the king of Wei next to him, was suddenly shocked, and thought that he dared to bet with his father Li Shimin, this Tang Zhou's courage was really big, and Li Tai was not only surprised, but also a little curious, he wanted to know what Tang Zhou and Li Shimin were betting on, and what was the outcome between them.
Li Shimin is not a person who will repay his debts, and after listening to it, he smiled: "Naturally remember, why, you came to verify the results with me today?" ”
Tang Zhou smiled and nodded: "Now in Chang'an City, the book number is selling well, and the taxes drawn by the imperial court from many book sales are enough to make up for the loss of betting in the cavalry and archery competition, right?" ”
Regarding the matter of the book number, the relevant personnel of the Hanlin Academy have already made a report to Li Shimin, and now when he hears Tang Zhou's words, Li Shimin will not disagree, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, I lost the bet with you, and I will completely cancel the betting of this riding and archery competition." ”
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Tang Zhou was overjoyed and said, "The ministers thank the emperor for the people of the Tang Dynasty." ”
Li Shimin smiled and waved his hand: "My subjects, what do you thank on their behalf, since I have made up for the loss, I should do these things for them." ”
The two ministers said this, but Li Tai, the king of Wei, had already heard and understood, and the previous betting on the horse archery competition was temporarily canceled, and he felt strange, such a big profit, his father could not give up easily, and now he knew that all this was Tang Zhou's struggle.
Thinking that Tang Zhou could think about the people of the Tang Dynasty, Li Tai, the king of Wei, felt that Tang Zhou would be a pillar of the Tang Dynasty in the future.
Thinking like this, Li Tai, the king of Wei, naturally wanted to show favor to Tang Zhou, so when the two of them said a pause, he hurriedly interjected: "Father, Tang Zhou can think about my Tang Dynasty so much, and my father should reward him." ”
Li Shimin originally had this intention, but when he heard Li Tai, the king of Wei, mention it, he hurriedly smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, it should be rewarded, but Tang Zhou opened a Cuiming Building in the West Market, and the business is not good, I don't want to see the money I rewarded, let's say, what other reward do you want, as long as I give it, I will never hesitate." ”
Tang Zhou didn't think about asking Li Shimin for anything, but he also heard some of the things in the court this morning, thinking of Li Tai, the king of Wei, building a literature museum, he suddenly had some ideas, and now he saw Li Shimin asking, so he quickly knelt down and said: "The minister doesn't want any reward, I heard that the king of Wei is prosperous and strong for my Tang Dynasty, and built a literature museum to recruit talents, and the minister is in Sinong Temple, and he also wants to follow in the footsteps of the prince to set up a Xingnong Society in Sinong Temple, select and train some agricultural talents, and contribute to the prosperity of my Tang Dynasty." ”
Tang Zhou's words, somewhat flattering Wei King Li Tai, Wei King Li Tai heard this, it was very useful, so he hurriedly smiled: "The people take food as the sky, and my Datang is even more to put agriculture after the scholars, it can be seen that my Datang attaches great importance to agriculture, and it is really my Datang luck that the little marquis can have this heart." ”
After King Wei finished saying this, he suddenly realized that he was too excited and robbed Li Shimin's words, so he hurriedly looked at Li Shimin embarrassedly, Li Shimin didn't care, just nodded very agreeably, and said: "Qingque said well, my Tang soldiers are fighting at the border pass, and they also need farmers to work hard to provide food, and the Tang family boy can see the importance of agriculture, it is very discerning, and it is also good to think of establishing a Xingnong Society to cultivate agricultural talents for my Datang." ”
Hearing Li Shimin's affirmation, Tang Zhou felt more and more that there would be no problem with this matter, so he followed up and asked: "Then I don't know if this Xingnong Society, can the Holy Lord approve of it?" ”
thought that Li Shimin would directly nod in agreement, but Tang Zhou waited for a long time, but he didn't wait for Li Shimin to speak, looked up slightly, and found that Li Shimin looked hesitant, as if it was difficult to make a decision.
