Chapter 3 In the Clouds

Li Shimin was not afraid of what the situation would be if Wanyan became independent in the harem one day, but he forced himself to believe that in fact, Wanyan really loved him, and in normal times, Wanyan did not show anything about power, so he was very relieved of her, until this time, he began to have some doubts.

Moreover, over the years, Li Shimin has felt more and more that he is old and powerless, but he has not found a suitable successor, and he also wants to know whether Wanyan is the person who can help him assist in the overall situation, if so, then it is the best, if not, it is not the person he trusts, and he must correct it quickly.

Li Shimin listened to a lot of nonsense about Wanyan, but the bad things spread thousands of miles, but the next day, the fable of Mr. Sage spread in the previous dynasty, and like the first Turkic war, the ministers were angry and strongly demanded that Wanyan's demon girl be beheaded to eliminate the harm for the Tang Dynasty.

Wanyan didn't fluctuate much when she heard these remarks later, as if she had learned that she would end up like this. After Li Shimin went to the court, he went to Wanyan, the only place where Li Shimin could completely relax and get out of the world he had been nervous about.

Li Shimin came to Wanyan's palace, Wanyan still served him as before, and after Wanyan arrived for Li Shimin's tea, she looked at him and waited for him to say something, but Li Shimin never said a word from beginning to end.

Wanyan couldn't bear it a little, so she asked Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, I have heard many remarks from the previous dynasty, and I don't know if the emperor has anything to say to me." ”

Li Shimin thought for a moment, looked at Wanyan carefully, and asked, "What those people said, did you really not do it?" ”

Wanyan raised her head to meet Li Shimin's eyes, smiled slightly, and shook her head.

Over the years, they have been in the same boat through thick and thin, supporting each other, even if Li Shimin is a little jealous of Wanyan because of the entanglement of rights, but the feelings in his heart cannot be erased no matter what. What Wanyan said, he believed that Li Shimin was still more willing to believe in his pillow than those ministers who observed words and feelings.

Li Shimin caressed Wanyan's hair and said, "Concubine Ai, I believe what you say." ”

Wanyan saw Li Shimin's statement, so she pushed the boat down the river and said: "Your Majesty, the gossip of the previous dynasty and the concubines have actually heard about it, and the concubines know that it is quite difficult for you to be caught in the middle, so the concubines asked to be grounded in the palace, and also asked the emperor for permission, and the concubines did not want the emperor to tell the truth because of the affairs of the concubines. ”

Li Shimin was greatly moved, he didn't expect that Wanyan would be able to know the general situation without arguing, without fear, Li Shimin took Wanyan into his arms and said: "Ai Concubine, Youqing is like this, what more can I ask for." ”

Wanyan lowered her head and smiled shyly and charmingly, leaned into Li Shimin's arms, Li Shimin stroked Wanyan's soft black hair, smelled the faint fragrance on her body, and unconsciously calmed down a lot, Li Shimin said with emotion: "Aifei, you have been in the palace for so many years, and you are still beautiful, but I am old." ”

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he sighed, shook his head again, Wanyan held Li Shimin's hand, rubbed his fingers slightly in Li Shimin's palm, and said: "Your Majesty, you are not old, you will always be the emperor of the concubines, no matter how many years have passed, the concubines will always be by your side, you have to promise the concubines, and always be the hero that you admire in the hearts of the concubines, okay?" ”

Li Shimin nodded and said quite dotingly: "Okay, good." Suddenly remembered something, "Aifei, I haven't seen our hustle and bustle for a long time, I really miss him, let's go see our son together." ”

Wanyan nodded and said, "Okay, but let's go quietly, I'm afraid that Huan'er is still studying at this hour, I'm afraid that we will disturb him." Wanyan said, and quietly glanced at a little eunuch next to her.

Li Shimin asked in surprise: "Oh? It's so late, and you're still reading? At such a young age, it is really rare to work so hard. ”

Wanyan knew that Li Shimin appreciated this spirit, so she continued: "In fact, the concubine also persuaded Huan'er many times to let him not work so hard, and he didn't want to fight at night, but Huan'er was very unwilling, and he told me that he wanted to read more books, so that he could grow up faster." ”

Li Shimin smiled and said: "This kid, this look is really a bit like when I was a child." After speaking, he took Wanyan's hand and walked towards the place where Li Yan lived.

Because of Wanyan's words, Li Shimin deliberately didn't let people inform him when he walked in, Li Shimin and Wanyan went straight to Li Huan's study, but found that Li Huan had fallen asleep on the desk, and the wide desk lined him with extra thin, sitting on the huge chair, Li Huan's legs could not reach the ground.

Li Shimin sighed and said to Wanyan: "Alas, this kid is really hard, he is exactly the same as when I was a child, but I still have to pay attention to my body first, how can I be tired like this, I still expect him to make a difference in the future, the pressure at a young age can't be too great, you should also mention him more." ”

After speaking, Li Shimin walked in, carried Li Yan back to the bedroom, covered him with a quilt and let him rest, Wanyan said yes again and again, but in her heart she was thinking about Li Shimin's ambiguous words, I still expect him to do something in the future, what does it mean.

Li Shimin covered Li Yan with a quilt, and then walked out with Wanyan. Li Huan listened to the footsteps in the distance, slowly opened his eyes, lifted the quilt and jumped out of bed, looking at the distant backs of his father and mother, and secretly sad in his heart, is this the royal family, everyone lives in endless deception.

After this incident, Wanyan locked herself in the palace, so that she logically blocked the mouth of Youyou in the court, and also solved a problem for Li Shimin.

After a few days, the Queen Mother's illness still did not improve, but worsened, which made Li Shimin quite worried, so Li Shimin recruited capable people in the world, but it can be beneficial to the Queen Mother's condition.

This person calls himself Yun Chen, a famous doctor who has been traveling all over the world, but he does not rely on medical skills to see a doctor, but relies on fortune-telling, modifying his life, even if he corrects the mistakes in his life, supplemented by medicinal materials, he can rejuvenate and cure all diseases. There are countless legends about him on the rivers and lakes, but not many have seen his true face.

Li Shimin was quite surprised that this person who has been traveling outside and does not ask about the world was able to uncover the emperor's list, Li Shimin asked him the reason, but he only said: "Because I am used to wandering outside, I want a place to settle down." The answer was concise and unassailable, and I couldn't fault anything.

Li Shimin saw that Yun Chen did not answer sincerely, and the queen mother's condition was in crisis, he did not want to interrogate more, so he directly ordered someone to take Yun Chen to the queen mother to see a doctor.

"With all due respect, has the emperor invited someone to come and see it before, but it didn't work?" Yun Chen asked.

Li Shimin nodded, and listened to Yun Chen continue: "If Caomin's guess is right, that person should have given the emperor an answer before, but the emperor is not particularly satisfied with that answer?" ”

Li Shimin nodded again, and Yun Chen smiled confidently: "I see, the grass people know how to heal the Queen Mother." ”

As soon as Yun Chen said this, he immediately woke up Li Shimin, and Li Shimin couldn't wait to ask: "Say it quickly, do you know what to do?" ”

Yun Chen smiled more confidently and said: "Actually, that person is half right, it is indeed Concubine Yan's destiny and the Queen Mother's backlash, but this is not Concubine Yan's fault, it is only because the people around Concubine Yan are inappropriate that it has led to today's incident of Concubine Yan's mother's back to the black pot." ”

The more Li Shimin listened, the more ridiculous he felt, so he asked, "Oh? What you said is really interesting, then you say, what kind of heat changed Concubine Yan's life. ”

Yun Chen looked quite calm, as if he knew that something big was about to happen, and then said: "It's the person who has recently entered and exited the battlefield, this person has ruined Concubine Yan's kindness, and he also disobeyed the military order, which is really a punishment." ”

Li Shimin was a little confused by what he said, so he asked: "What the hell is going on, you can tell me quickly, don't beat me around the bend again." ”

Yun Chen saw that Li Shimin's patience was decreasing little by little, so he said: "When he was in the ancient city, Liuning took the place of Tang Changyu's marshal without authorization, and changed his strategy to attack the city without authorization, but it was a magnet that the Tang Dynasty had worked so hard to transport to the front line, which was of no use at all, but it was used by people with good intentions to win people's hearts. ”

"God saw that you were disrespectful and harmed the people around you, so he came out to uphold justice, this method was originally thought up by King Jiang, but King Jiang is young, and you are the emperor Yang Qi is heavy, he didn't dare to retaliate, so he put the rewriting of this life on Wanyan, so there will be such a situation now."

"In fact, this matter is not difficult to solve, as long as the root cause of the problem is solved, these things are easy to say, God sees the sincerity of the Tang Dynasty, everything will naturally return to its place, the Queen Mother's illness will be cured, and all the problems will be solved."

Li Shimin was in the fog of what Yun Chen said, and he didn't know who to listen to, and it was a little difficult to judge whether these baseless words were true or false for a while, Li Shimin just vaguely felt that this person's spearhead seemed to be pointed at Tang Changyu and Liuning.

Li Shimin left a hand and did not express his position immediately, but after Yun Chen left, he instructed the people around him: "Go, find out what kind of person this Yun Chen is." ”
