On the ninth day of June in the twentieth year of Zhenguan, Chang Dexuan, a Shaanxi man, raised 500 fake sons from Zhang Liang, the head of the military department, and privately purchased heavy armor, gathered people to plot against him, and reported Zhang Liang and the warlock Gongsun Changyu, Yun "A certain name should be a diagram, and the king of the bow chief should be a different capital", and asked the warlock Cheng Gongyingyun: "I have dragon scales on my arm, and I want to do something big, but what?" The prince Li Zhen even feasted on the general Cheng Biting Jin Mansion, slightly investigated the matter, and then sent troops to calm it, and the report was angry, and the ministers gathered to vote on it, and the ministers all said that Zhang Liang wanted to rebel, and the people and horses of the book were ordered to do his thing, Liang was not convinced, and his words were more perverse, and he said: "Liang has 500 fake sons, what is the purpose of raising this generation?" If you want to turn your ears, you should be punished! The ministers all thought so, and Li Daoyu, the only general who was a young craftsman, said: "There is no bright and anti-form, and the crime does not deserve death." "If you don't accept it, you will send the eldest Sun Wuji, Fang Xuanling to prison and Liang Jue said: "The law is peaceful in the world, and the public is in peace." The public is not careful, he repays the murderer, and he falls into the law, what will he do now? Gong Hao Go! "Spinning heels, Liang and Gongsun Chang, Cheng Gongying were all beheaded in the West City, and they did not have their homes, so that Liang's performance on this chapter was invalidated, and the emperor ordered to reward the troops of Xue Yantuo, and the rewards of each general were poor, but he did not transfer the generals of Beiting to Beijing, but transferred Liu Whirlwind, the town guard of Chuhezhou in Beiting, to be the deputy governor of Yanran Protectorate, and as a result, a storm that could shake the foundation of the Tang Dynasty stopped.

June 15 of the 20th year of Zhenguan, the emperor moved to the Daming Palace, the moon is not in the court, nor is he pampered the concubines, let alone the ministers, no one knows where the emperor's heart is, all kinds of government affairs are pressed on the prince Li Zhen, if it is not for the help of the four prime ministers, the court situation will be out of control, to the beginning of August of the 20th year of Zhenguan, the emperor suddenly issued an edict, so that all over the country to find capable people and strange people to alchemy pills, seeking the art of immortality, the ministers are in an uproar, all said no, the emperor allowed it, the ministers have to do things, the emperor was furious and said: "You want to die early?" The ministers were at a loss, this matter was carried out, and all the states and governments were dedicated because of the will, and more than 100 warlocks gathered in Beijing at the end of the twenty years of Zhenguan, and there were many things in the Daming Palace!

Seeing that the sky is about to be the Spring Festival, the snow is not falling much, floating intermittently, smearing the earth with a layer of powder and white, but it is not dense, and there are dots of black in all directions, which is really boring and tight, which makes people look extraordinarily greasy, especially at this time Li Zhen is in an annoying mood, so she simply pulled down the curtain of the car and did not look at the scenery outside the car, but in her heart she panicked as if she had poured boiling oil - needless to say about the hard work of government affairs for more than half a year, what is even more infuriating is that although the old man said that he did not go to court early, he could seal and authority but always grasped it. Every time you have something to decide, you have to climb the mountain to find the old man in the Daming Palace to use the seal, the old man has been obsessed with Danshu for a while, and he can't be easily disturbed, which thing is not to drag the daylily to get a hasty result, to this, not only Li Zhen has opinions, but the civil and military officials below are even more dissatisfied, and what is more troublesome is that the old man is now not listening to anyone's advice, and the persuasion of the ministers will pile up in this chapter, at least there can be a small mountain high, but at the bottom of the day it is not at all useful. What should the old man do or what is he still doing, the ministers have lost their temper, and at the end, they can only let it go, and it will be bitter for Li Zhen, no, today Li Zhen carried a large stack of notebooks to the Daming Palace to ask for instructions.

In Li Zhen's view, the Danshu Fang Shi and the like are just absurd legends, which are really not true, but the ridiculous old man has also ridiculed the Qin Emperor and Han Wu many times in the past for seeking immortals, but when he is old, his old man himself is so addicted to it, and the reputation of the first life has ended up in a situation where the evening is not guaranteed, so it is still light to delay the state affairs, and the trouble is full of black smoke and miasma. There is such an example of the old man in the partial life, Li Zhen is really not good at ordering a strict prohibition, and the atmosphere in this court can be imagined.

Daming Palace, located in the northeast of Chang'an City, was built in Zhenguan eight years, formerly known as Yong'an Palace, this is Li Shimin's summer palace built for Emperor Li Yuan, that is, the palace for summer vacation, and the palace has not yet been built, Emperor Taishang Li Yuan died of illness in Da'an Palace in May of the second year, the construction of the summer palace was also stopped, then renamed Daming Palace in the first month of the ninth year of Zhenguan, and started to repair again in the twelfth year of Zhenguan, completed in the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, the area is as high as three square kilometers, is four and a half times the area of the Forbidden City in Beijing, Its palace layout is similar to the Taiji Palace in Chang'an City, but when it comes to style, it is far above the Taiji Palace, almost luxurious, originally there is also the residence of the East Palace in this palace, but Li Zhen really does not want to face the scene of the Fangshi rampant palace, and would rather take a car to climb the mountain every day to meet than stay in the Daming Palace, just trying to see out of sight.

The golden chariot slowly drove to the front of the palace gate along the winding mountain avenue in front of the Daming Palace, Li Zhen noticed in the carriage that the car had arrived at the ground, and did not wait for the accompanying little eunuchs to remind, so he walked out of the carriage with a waist and walked towards the palace gate expressionlessly, a group of Yulin officers and soldiers who were originally standing bored in front of the palace gate immediately straightened their waists, and a military attache in Lang general's costume trotted all the way from the front of the door to meet him, and greeted him very respectfully: "The last general Wang Kui see His Royal Highness." ”

"Excuse me." Although Li Zhen had something in his heart, he rarely used the people below to do it, so he raised his hand and said: "General Wang has worked hard, well, the soldiers you brought are good, and they are a little energetic." ”

"Don't dare to be praised by His Highness, this is what the last general should do." Wang Kui's grandfather had followed Taizu Li Yuan in Taiyuan in his early years, and died on the battlefield after the battle, his father died early, Wang Kui attacked his grandfather's knight, entered the Yulin Army, started from the gang leader, and it took 20 years to climb to the position of Lang General, the official luck is really not good, but it is not that the ability is not good, just because he is not good at welcoming Feng'er, in the circle where such a meritorious feat abounds in the Yulin Army, he will not shoot the horse, how can he be good, he can go up to the current position, it is already regarded as the ancestral tomb is smoking, this is not, even if it is against His Royal Highness the Prince, who has always been respected as an idol, This guy's answer is also so hard and tied that he doesn't pay much attention to it, as for his face, he turned it over, and he couldn't find a trace of flattery, which made Li Zhen stunned for a moment.

"It's good, it's good to keep it." Li Zhen and Wang Kui are not familiar with each other, they have only met once or twice before, and they don't have much impression of him, at this time, seeing this person is so upright, he has a good impression in his heart, but Li Zhen didn't have anything special to say, and after saying a word with a smile, he immediately walked to the palace, but he didn't notice that Wang Kui looked at Li Zhen behind him with a trace of excitement and anger in his eyes.

The area of Daming Palace is really too big, the Zichen Hall from the palace gate to the inner court is half a mile away, the buildings everywhere are really splendid, the atmosphere is tight, the palace maids and eunuchs who shuttle back and forth are all well-dressed, orderly and charming, the only thing that is not coordinated is that there are some chattering guys who are about to run out, the appearance of the gods and ghosts makes Li Zhen disgusted at first sight, and he can't say, after all, those scum are all in the name of refining gold pills for the old man, and no matter how perverse their behavior is, it is also the need for alchemy, isn't it? Therefore, Li Zhen had no choice but to pretend not to see it, and went straight to the Zichen Palace.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, you are here, and the slave and maid will give you a gift." Liu Donghe, the inner chamberlain, stood on the steps in front of the hall, talking with a group of priests dressed as Taoist priests, when he suddenly saw Li Zhen leading a few little eunuchs over, so he hurriedly left the group of monks, trotted down the steps, and respectfully greeted Li Zhen.

"There's Father-in-law Lao Liu." Li Zhen untied the token from her waist, smiled gently, and handed it to Liu Donghe.

Liu Donghe took the jade token in Li Zhen's hand with both hands, and didn't check it, his eyes rolled, and he said in a low voice: "Your Majesty just took the golden pill today, and you are dredging your muscles and bones, and it just so happens that His Royal Highness the King of Wei is also there." ”

Well? What is the fourth guy doing here? When Li Zhen heard this, she immediately became suspicious in her heart, but she didn't say much, she just smiled casually, which can be regarded as receiving Liu Donghe's information.

"Your Highness, please wait, the slave and maid will come when they go." Liu Donghe saw that Li Zhen had received his love, and he was very excited in his heart, and his eyes were shining, but he didn't dare to say it, so he hurriedly spoke, trotted up the steps all the way, and crashed into the Zichen Palace. ”

"I'm tired." Li Zhen nodded, and didn't say anything more, raised his feet and walked up the steps in front of the main hall, and ignored the greetings of the group of sub-monks standing in front of the hall, and strode into the hall, through the vestibule, and just turned to the cloister of the harem, he heard the old man's hearty laughter, looking for the laughter, and immediately saw that in a small patio by the corridor, Li Shimin was only wearing a jacket, sweating profusely and carrying a sword, and was twisting his beard and laughing, while Li Tai, the king of Wei, and several monks were echoing and saying some funny words.

"Erchen has seen his father." As soon as Li Zhen saw Li Shimin's appearance, he knew that the old man should have taken Jindan, his whole body was hot, and he had to exercise to eliminate the heat and dryness, which was quite similar to the situation of taking Wushisan in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

"Zhen'er came just in time, I was about to ask someone to go to Xuan'er, so you arrived, come, follow me to the study to talk." Li Shimin's interest was very high, as soon as he saw Li Zhen coming, he casually threw the sword in his hand to the little eunuch waiting on the side, said with a smile, and walked towards the study, and the little eunuchs standing on the side hurriedly put the fox coat on Li Shimin's body, and walked into the study together with the father and son.

Goguryeo sand table? Sure enough, it came! As soon as Li Zhen walked into the study, he saw a large sand table placed in the middle of the study, just a glance, he had already identified the terrain of this sand table was the Goguryeo terrain, and his heart jumped suddenly, and he had guessed what the old man was about to say, but Li Zhencheng was deep in the house, and he didn't bring it to his face, so he silently walked to the side, stood still, and waited for the old man to speak.

Li Shimin walked to the desk and sat down, straightened the coat he was wearing, looked at Li Zhen with a smile and said, "Zhen'er, how is the surplus of the household now?" ”

"Back to my father's words, now the household has 4.35 million yuan of money and 1.36 million stone of surplus grain." Li Zhen has been in charge of the government for a period of time, and he knows the affairs of the household department, although he knows what the old man's question is about, but he still answered it honestly.

"Well, it's good, it looks like the situation has been done well for the rest of the year, good, very good." Li Shimin nodded approvingly, and then changed his words and said, "Since the surplus grain is enough, I plan to conquer Goguryeo again, what do you think?" ”

How is it? What else? Don't look at the old man's words, although he is a question, in fact, he is undoubtedly resolute inside, which makes Li Zhen feel uneasy for a while - Goguryeo is a piece of the old man's heart, this Li Zhen knows in his heart, Ningjing around the Tang Dynasty today, the earlier strong enemies such as the Eastern and Western Turks, Xue Yantuo, etc. have all been destroyed, and the only remaining power, Tubo, is the only one who is left with the order of the Tang Dynasty, and such a little flea as Goguryeo is still bouncing there, and it stands to reason that it is a matter of course to destroy Goguryeo. It's not that Li Zhen doesn't want to destroy Goguryeo, but there are several obstacles: first, the Tang Dynasty has used soldiers every year in the past few years, and the veterans of the division are already tired and in urgent need of rest, so it is really not appropriate to raise sword soldiers at this time; Second, the surplus grain is actually not enough to finance the expedition of the army, the reason is very simple - one hundred and thirty-six stone grain seems to be a lot, however, most of these surplus grains are still stored in the warehouses of the grain-producing areas, and if they are really transferred to the front line, there will be no three out of ten, although they can barely use one campaign, but the premise is that there can be no disasters in the country, otherwise, if you want to help the victims, the imperial court's finances will be stretched; As for the third, in terms of the old man's physical state, how can he go through the tragedy of the war again, Long Invincible Bookstore After all, what is the effect of Jindan's thing Li Zhen knows in his heart, it is just equivalent to stimulants and the like, and it is barely enough to stimulate the potential, but after that, it must be a big void body, once the old man has an accident on the front line, then the fun will be great.

There are a lot of reasons for opposing sending troops, but unfortunately they can't be declared, even if they are said, the old man can't listen to it, how to open this mouth, it really makes Li Zhen in a dilemma, the problem is that since the old man asked, it can't be answered yet, in desperation, Li Zhen had to hesitate a little and said: "Father Emperor Mingjian, Cheng Mingzhen, the head of the march of Liaodong Road, and General Cheng Lao have fought dozens of large and small wars in the past year, and they have won every game. Saying that the king of Goguryeo has made his son Mo Zhi leave his post to come to my Tang Dynasty to apologize, and now his envoy is on the way, and he has not seen his envoy to fight, I am afraid that it will lose the demeanor of my great Tang Dynasty, and the son thinks that it is appropriate to discuss whether it is appropriate to discuss the war after seeing the envoy group. ”

As soon as Li Zhen's voice fell, Li Tai, the king of Wei, who was standing on the side, stood up and objected loudly: "His Royal Highness the Prince's words are wrong, Goguryeo Xiaokou has changed repeatedly, it is really not a sincere person, he sent an envoy to come, the left and right are just a plan to delay the army, it is not enough to believe, now I am in the Tang Dynasty, only the Goguryeo dog barks wildly, it is really unbearable, how can I raise the prestige of our country if I don't remove it, my son is willing to be a pawn of the horse, and serve as a pioneer for my father, and vow to step on this tyrant!" ”

Fuck the fourth, what do you kid want to do! It's strange that the old man refining the pill would think of going to Goguryeo, and it was your kid who instigated it! As soon as Li Zhen heard Li Tai's words, his heart was on fire, and he couldn't wait to take a knife to cut this guy into several pieces, but he wanted to think about it, in front of the old man, Li Zhen couldn't oppress his brothers, and he was furious from his heart, but he could only explain with a smile: "The fourth brother has this ambition, it's not easy, it's just that the war is not a child's play, even if you want to fight, you have to pay some attention to it, and now Goguryeo has planned to surrender, and my Tang Dynasty, as the upper kingdom of the Celestial Empire, must always be self-respecting and decent, even if it is not allowed to surrender, it must be told in person." ”

Although Li Zhen's words are plain, but inside he is satirizing Li Tai, the king of Wei, who does not understand military affairs, and what he said is just nonsense, which means that Li Tai understands it, but he can't get angry at Li Zhen, who is known as the god of war in the army, after all, his three-legged cat's riding and shooting skills can't be taken at all in front of Li Zhen, but he doesn't want to lower his voice, so he pretended to be impassioned and said: "Father, although the sons are not good at fighting, they are not afraid of war, and I implore the father and emperor to allow the sons and daughters to go out with the army and destroy this dynasty!" ”

"Well, it's very comforting that Tai'er can have this heart." Li Shimin had obviously already made up his mind to go on the expedition, and he didn't want the Li Zhen brothers to argue more about this matter, so he suppressed his hand and said with a smile: "Goguryeo is just a little Koer, why do you need me to wait for my father and son to go into battle together, as long as you can hold on to the affairs of the criminal department, I can just raise troops and go there." ”

"Father...... Li Zhen heard that the old man was so invincible that the important affairs of the military and the state were easily settled, and he was a little anxious, and hurriedly said that he wanted to persuade again, but Li Shimin did not wait for Li Zhen to finish speaking, so he waved his hand and said: "I have made up my mind, Zhen'er does not need to persuade again." ”

"Father, as a son of man, his son should share his father's worries, like a little guy like Goguryeo, why do you need your father to go out in person, your son can lead tens of thousands of troops to wipe it out, and your son begs his father for permission." Li Zhen was willing to let the old man carry his sick body to fight in all directions, at this time, he didn't care about the old man's displeasure, he fell to the ground and spoke very earnestly.

"What? Do you think I'm old? Well? Although Li Zhen was kind, Li Shimin obviously didn't intend to accept this love, so he stood up suddenly, shook off the coat he was wearing, squinted at Li Zhen, and reprimanded coldly.

"The sons don't dare, the sons don't dare, the sons are just willing to serve their fathers, this heart can be on the sun and the moon, and please ask the father to see it." Facing Li Shimin's anger, Li Zhen felt a lot of pain in her heart, but she could only kowtow and say.

"That's it, this matter is decided, I will make an order when I go back, and you will all retreat." Li Shimin looked at Li Zhen coldly for a while, and finally his expression was relieved, and he no longer scolded, but waved his hand a little lonely, and resolutely ordered the eviction of customers.

"Yes, the sons and the others will retire." As soon as they saw the old man speak, Li Zhen and Li Tai didn't dare to say anything more, so they each bowed, then withdrew from the study, and went back to their homes to convene their henchmen......
