Feng Deyi rode the lightning horse given by Li Shimin, rushed back to the imperial capital Chang'an, and reported the results of the negotiations to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin's heart is mixed. The good thing is that Li Yi agreed to negotiate peace, and there is no need to make a big move; What worries him is that his eldest son Li Chengqian will become the so-called prison army and become Li Yi's hostage. In Li Shimin's heart, there was a feeling of being bullied by Li Yi, and he was very unhappy, but for the sake of his son Li Chengqian, he put the entire Tang Dynasty in the sword soldiers, Li Shimin couldn't do it, he could only be forced to reluctantly agree to Li Yi's conditions.

Lizheng Palace, the place where the eldest grandson of the Tang Empress lives.

A eunuch hurriedly walked into the Lizheng Hall and reported to the eldest grandson: "Queen Mother, Your Majesty has decided to make peace with Li Yi, and Li Yi proposed to ask the king of Zhongshan County to serve as the supervisor of the Youzhou Army. His Majesty has agreed. ”

After receiving the news, Empress Changsun's face suddenly turned pale, and her whole person swayed, as if she might fall down at any time.

Empress Changsun married into the Li family at the age of thirteen, and followed a husband who fought in the north and south on horseback all day long, and she has seen and smelled a lot of blood, but she is a mother after all, and her son is the meat of her heart, not to mention that Li Chengqian is her first son, and now he is only eight years old, let Chengqian be Li Yi's supervisor, so how can it? Li Yi is a big devil who kills people without blinking.

Empress Eldest Sun stabilized her mind and said slowly: "Set up the Taiji Palace, and the palace will meet the emperor." ”

Taiji Palace, Changsun Palace begged Li Shimin bitterly: "Your Majesty, Cheng Qian is still young, only eight years old, how can you bear to let him leave us, go to the bitter cold Youzhou, and go to Li Yi's murderous demon's side?" ”

Emperor Li Shimin also said bitterly: "Cheng Qian, he is my son, my eldest son, and the future prince of the Tang Dynasty. For the sake of the Tang Dynasty and the people of Limin, he must go to Li Yi's army, even if it is dangerous, he must go. This is his responsibility and his life. ”

Empress Changsun knelt at Li Shimin's feet, pulled Li Shimin's dragon robe and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine begs you, I beg you." In the past few years, Emperor Taishang and King Xi Jiancheng have joined forces to suppress His Majesty, and the concubines and Chengqian have been shrouded in fear day and night, worrying all day long, and living a difficult life. Finally, His Majesty's Xuanwumen changed, got rid of King Xi, and ascended the throne, the concubines and Cheng Qian felt a little relieved, but it was only two days, and it was only two days, Your Majesty let Cheng Qian serve as the supervisor of Youzhou, what kind of person is Li Yi in Youzhou? He's a murderer who doesn't blink. Your Majesty, you are pushing Cheng Qian into the fire pit. Your Majesty, please be kind to your concubines, and have mercy on your unfortunate son. ”

Li Shimin's eyes were full of tears, but his attitude was still resolute and said: "The national society, how can you tolerate personal feelings? You have always kept your duty as a woman, and you have never asked about political affairs, do you know what your behavior is called today? This is called harem interference, and it is punishable. ”

Empress Eldest Sun knelt in front of Li Shimin, just begging bitterly.

Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun, who had been with him for many years, and said, "You are not in good health, get up quickly." I won't change my mind, Cheng Qian must go to Youzhou to be a prisoner. I will never allow me to set a precedent for the affairs of the harem to interfere in politics. ”

Empress Eldest Sun still didn't get up, just pleading with tears streaming down her face.

The mansion of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Chengqian, the king of Zhongshan County, hurriedly walked into the study of the eldest grandson Wuji. As soon as he saw the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Chengqian cried to the eldest grandson Wuji: "Uncle save me, my father asked me to go to the army of Li Yi, the king of Yan, to be a hostage, and the queen mother went to plead, but my father did not let go." Uncle, Li Yi is a big devil who kills people without blinking, uncle, you have to save me. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji's eyes rolled, and he secretly said in his heart: "Cheng Qian was sent by the Tang Emperor to be a hostage in the army of Li Yi, the king of Yan, and this must be the peace condition proposed by Li Yi, the king of Yan. How could Yanwang Li Yi put forward such a condition, but would choose to undertake it? On behalf of His Majesty, Feng Deyi, the head of the Shizhong and Southern clans, what does Feng Deyi want to do? What does his Southern Clan want to do? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji saw Feng Deyi's face that was always as heavy as water and incomprehensible, and he seemed to have thought of something.

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the crown prince Chengqian and said: "King of Zhongshan County, you are the eldest son of His Majesty and the eldest son of the emperor, at this time, you can't retreat, all the people in the world, civil and military officials are looking at you." You should do something for the country and for Li Tang Sheji. Now you should go to Taiji Palace, find your father, and show him that even if Li Yi's camp is a sea of swords and fire, and a cliff, you are willing to break through for the sake of the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Li Chengqian was so frightened that he almost cried, and said, "But, but uncle, I really don't dare to go." That's Li Yi, it's Li Yi's murderer. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji glared, and said angrily: "Li Chengqian, what do you look like now?" Is there still a little bit of the appearance of the prince of the Tang Dynasty? Come, puff up your chest, like a man, go to Taiji Palace, find your father, show your ambition, don't insult the blood of my eldest grandson, and don't insult the glory of the Li Tang royal family. ”

The voice of the eldest grandson Wuji was categorical, and the power that his uncle had in front of his nephew made the young Li Chengqian feel a sense of fear in his heart under the coercion of his sword-like gaze, and he unconsciously took a few steps back.

Seeing Li Chengqian's cowardly performance, the eldest grandson Wuji took Li Chengqian's hand and said helplessly: "Go to Taiji Palace, uncle will accompany you to go together, go to Taiji Palace, and also go to Youzhou." With your uncle here, no one can hurt you. ”

In Taiji Palace, Li Shimin sat on a dragon chair with an angry face, and Empress Changsun was still kneeling on the ground, crying, begging the Tang Emperor Li Shimin, hoping that he would change his mind.

Outside the Taiji Palace, the eldest grandson Wuji said to Li Chengqian: "Go in, according to what your uncle taught you." Uncle is just outside the door, you can go in. ”

Li Chengqian walked into the Taiji Palace step by step.

"Father!" Li Chengqian shouted.

Li Shimin looked up and saw that it was Li Chengqian standing tremblingly at the gate of Taiji Palace. His face sank, and he said angrily, "What are you doing here?" ”

Before Li Chengqian could speak, Empress Eldest Sun, who was kneeling on the ground, waved to Li Chengqian and said, "Chengqian, kneel down quickly, ask your father for mercy and give you a way to live." ”

Li Chengqian walked up to Li Shimin, puffed, and knelt down.

Li Shimin stood up angrily, looked at his son with hatred, and said helplessly: "You ......."
