496 The tiger still exists

Two quarters of an hour ago:

After Li Yuan's abdication, he has been trapped in the Tai'an Palace in Chang'an City, living in a simple place, the palace left by the previous dynasty is in disrepair, dim and damp, and it is not good for the old cold legs left in the early years of the war, and it is an unspeakable torture when it comes to the rainy season or the cold season.

Every day when the drum of the palace door sounds, Li Yuan will subconsciously wake up leisurely, although it has been several years since he stepped down from the throne, but he opened his eyes as soon as the drum sounded, and the habit developed at that time has not been changed, once upon a time, the bell was knocked for himself, the palace door was opened for himself, the ministers were prostrate at their feet, and the Tang Dynasty was in control of their own hands, but unfortunately, the bells and drums were still on time, but the object of allegiance in the court was no longer himself.

"Emperor Taishang, it's still early, let's sleep a little longer." The concubine Yang who was lying next to her said softly.

Concubine Yang, born in a good family, born beautiful, beautiful and wise, won Li Yuan's love, but also her youthful body, gave Li Yuan a lot of comfort to live in seclusion in the deep palace, Li Er said that he killed his brother and killed his brother, and he was ruthless, but he still maintained due respect for his father Li Yuan, and he should supply it, and the specifications were higher than his own, and when he cut the expenses in the palace, the expenses of Tai'an Palace not only did not decrease by a cent, but doubled, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation for Li Yuan.

Anyway, this old man in his twilight years won't live long.

"Concubine Ai, you sleep, the emperor can't sleep." Although Li Yuan is said to be the emperor, it is just a fictitious title, and he has no real power, "I" is the emperor's special name, and now it is not his turn to use it again, so he has to use the emperor to call himself.

Yang smiled, she was a little sleepy, and she was not used to getting up so early, and slowly closed her eyes, for a concubine who was trapped in the deep palace. Sleeping is the best way to pass the time, and no one comes to visit anyway.

The old eunuch who was waiting beside the "Emperor Taishang" gently put on an apricot yellow dragon embroidered coat for him, and whispered: "General Chai sent someone to send an urgent letter. ”

"Shao'er's letter? Pass it on. "When the dynasty is worthy of being a general, and the surname is Chai, only Chai Shao is alone, now the sky is just dawning, the early dynasty has just begun, so urgent to send a letter, what happened? Li Yuan didn't dare to slack off. Let him bring the letter at once.

"Prepare a sedan chair, the emperor is going to see the emperor." This was Li Yuan's first reaction after reading the letter.

Li Yuan and Empress Dou have four sons and one daughter, the youngest son Li Yuanba, died at an early age, and the remaining three sons and one daughter. The most capable second son Li Shimin and the most pleasing to Li Yuan is the eldest son Li Jiancheng. And Li Yuan loves the most from the bottom of his heart. But it is the daughter Li Annihilation, there are many sons and few daughters, plus Li Annihilation has been born beautiful, shrewd, and intelligent since childhood, and has a heroic spirit that does not let the eyebrows be shaved, and at the beginning of Li Yuan's uprising, he showed a strong military talent. To put it bluntly, it is not an exaggeration to say that one-third of the Tang Dynasty was not laid by Li Annihilation, and after the death of Princess Li Annihilation of Pingyang, she loved the house and Wu. Li Yuan naturally loves his grandson.

The most cherished grandson has an accident, can Li Yuan not be in a hurry?

At this moment, Li Yuan came to the Taiji Hall, a familiar and unfamiliar court, looking at the civil and military officials of the full court, for a while, Li Yuan's heart was full of mixed feelings, and he didn't say anything for a while.

Seeing Li Er with his eldest grandson Wuji, Li Jing and others coming out, Li Yuan hesitated for a moment, but still made a move that relieved the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, only to see Li Yuan salute Li Er, and said in that old voice: "Li Yuan has seen the emperor." ”

Heaven and earth Jun is a teacher, Jun is ranked after heaven and earth, but he is ranked before his relatives, which also means that in terms of name, his son Li Shimin's status is higher than himself, although Li Yuan still has the name of a emperor, but it was given by his son, it is a false name, no one cares, after killing his brother and killing his brother, now Li Er has redeemed his reputation for killing his brother through diligence and love for the people, Li Yuan is really afraid, if he offends his son, will someone shout that the emperor will die the next day.

In the past few years after Li Yuan's abdication, although there is a gap between father and son, there is nothing to do with each other, which has a lot to do with Li Yuan's "peace and self-protection", of course, this is not what it used to be, most of the civil and military officials in the court have been replaced, and those who are pro-Li Yuan, those who are pro-Li Jiancheng, those who are in prison, and those who are exiled are now all pro-Li Er.

Before the ceremony was halfway through, Li Er immediately rushed over, helped Li Yuan up, and said with a sincere face: "Father, please get up, this is the torture of the son." ”

What Li Er wants is not for this old man to salute, what he wants is just an attitude.

"The ministers see the Emperor." After the father and son had passed away, the eldest grandson Wuji saluted Li Yuan.

"See Emperor Taishang" On the lead of the eldest grandson Wuji, the civil and military officials in the court also saluted Li Yuan together.

Looking at the situation of worship of hundreds of officials, what rose in Li Yuan's heart was not pride and satisfaction, but a trace of desolation, if Li Er's superiority, his hands were stained with the blood of his brothers, but Li Yuan's superiority, not to mention any scenery, made his own relatives' rebellion, in order to reduce the pressure of rebellion, but also colluded with the Turks, scourged the Central Plains, and mutilated his compatriots, I don't know how many people of the Sui and Tang dynasties died tragically under the iron cavalry of the Turks, that is, in the later period, he fought with Dou Jiande, and he and his brother-in-law grabbed the world, on the road to the throne, Piled up with white bones, many of them are their own in-laws.

This is also when later historians mentioned Li Yuan, they did not want to say more, and they mentioned it in one stroke, the Tang Dynasty is the pride of China, but it is Li Yuan, but it is the dark stroke under the halo.

"All the Qing families are flat, your intentions, the emperor has understood them." Li Yuan sighed and ordered everyone to get up.

They are all old men who are dying, and Li Yuan also sees it very openly.

"Emperor Xie Tai"

"Father, please take a seat." Li Er personally supported Li Yuan, although he didn't understand, how his father, who had been silent for so many years, suddenly ran to the court, so that there were two "emperors" in the court, and he didn't get the news beforehand, those eunuchs and guards were really damned.

Li Er had already planned to go back and punish the eyeliner he had arranged beside Li Yuan.

Li Yuan shook his head and said: "Excuse me, my body is not good, you can do it here, this emperor is here to ask you something." ”

"Yes, my father said bluntly."

"I heard that Ling Wu was injured by a fanatic last night and is now detained in Yongzhou Mansion, is there such a thing?" Li Yuan said angrily.

Li Er's eyes were fixed on Chai Shao, it was obvious that what happened last night, he had just learned that although Chang'an had a lot of secret guards, he was concerned about major events, the children of Chang'an's powerful people were countless, and it was not uncommon for them to fight, so they didn't report it in time, and now even his father who lives in Taiji Palace knows about it, needless to say, nine times out of ten it is his good brother-in-law who has reported the news.

Fighting together for many years, he understands his personality and will not be emotional, coupled with the recent role of Liu Yuan and Qinghe Cui's family, it is estimated that he will also be raised high and put down gently, if it were not for Li Yuan's sudden appearance, he would have announced that he would let Liu Yuan return to the Yangwei military camp, and when things cool down, it will be impossible to deal with it in the end, and now that his father Li Yuan is making peace, this matter will not be easy to do.

Thinking about it, Li Er immediately responded: "Erchen has just learned that he is now ordering Governor Yong to investigate and deal with it, and there should be a result soon." ”

"The emperor asked you, how are you going to deal with this matter?"

"Naturally, it is handled impartially." Li Er hesitated for a moment, and replied with a little lack of confidence.

Li Yuan stared at Li Er and asked with a straight face, "How is Ling Wu's health now, where is he?" ”

"For the time being, I am still in the Yongzhou Mansion, and I have an imperial doctor to heal my injuries."

"Hmph, a small five-grade petty official, he actually committed a crime, he simply doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, Ling Wu is your biological nephew, seeing that he is being bullied, you, as the emperor's uncle, can you still be indifferent? Your sister Pingyang, her favorite before her death was Ling Wu, you just don't miss family affection, you also have to read the old love, if there is no Pingyang's efforts, without Pingyang's help, can our Li family have today? The emperor asks you, what are you going to do now? Do you even have a nephew" The more Li Yuan said, the more excited he became, they were all relatives of the next generation, and the old man was the most protective calf, and when it came to the back, he almost wanted to say that he had killed all his brothers, and he didn't even let go of a nephew.

Sitting on the country, the Tang Dynasty is all from the Li family, and their own people still have to suffer, as for it?

Li Er wants to pinch Chai Shao to death, and he is the emperor, or is he trained by Lao Tzu to be like a grandson, that is, two little guys fighting, a big fart, as for it?

"What does Father mean?" Li Er asked respectfully.

Fortunately, Li Yuan was just caring for the calf, and did not blindly embarrass Li Er, he didn't miss family affection and grass the world, so that after winning the world, when he returned to his hometown to visit the patriarch of the Li clan, he knocked on the door and did not enter, and he also knew the strength of the Shi family, and after thinking for a while, Li Yuan said quietly: "In any case, the Yongzhou Mansion can't stay, immediately put Ling Wu home to recuperate, and then hold the beater responsible, you are the emperor, how to deal with it is your business, so many clansmen are watching, if you don't punish him heavily, has set this precedent, where can the relatives of the emperor and the country still be comfortable? No matter what, Ling Wu must not be wronged. ”

"Yes, yes, father, son, obey." Li Er was trained, and the cold sweat came out.

The son was killed, the throne was seized, and he lived in a simple house in the deep palace, with the passage of time, Li Yuan, who once led the army to rebel, has grown old, and he has long lost the courage of the year, but when you ignore him, he suddenly became angry, and the tiger is still powerful, that is, Li Er, who has accumulated his prestige for a long time, has also become submissive in front of him, it is like going back in time, and he is still trying to please Li Yuan and get his approval.

"Okay, you continue to go to the court, the matter of Lingwu can't be delayed, cough cough" Li Yuan was angry, couldn't help coughing twice, and then said without looking back: "The emperor is a little tired, there is no need to send it, cough"

After speaking, regardless of Li Er's reaction, with the support of the old eunuch, he walked out of the door step by step, and the rising sun shone on his thin body, leaving an old and tired figure on the ground. (To be continued......)
