143. Hebei Chaos (II)

Tang Gaozu was angry in his heart, but he was helpless, because his face at this moment was far less important than the military situation in Hebei.

He wanted to give an order directly and order his second son to lead the army to the battle, but he was afraid that he would pick on him. In desperation, Gaozu could only find his daughter, hoping that his daughter would help persuade Li Shimin.

Princess Pingyang was more than six months pregnant at this time, and the matter in Hebei was so big, she naturally knew it.

Princess Pingyang came to the palace, and after listening to what Gao Zu meant, she pondered for a while before she spoke: "Father, it's not impossible for me to persuade Erlang, but I hope that my father will promise his daughter one thing." ”

"What do you say?" Gao Zu Dao.

"I hope that when my father faces major events in the future, he will not make decisions based on personal likes and dislikes, my Tang Dynasty has not been established for a long time, the national foundation has not yet been fully stabilized, and from the monarch to the ministers, there is no capricious capital."

"The daughter is both a son and a minister, this should not be said, but the daughter does not say it, I am afraid that there is no more suitable person who dares to say the same thing in front of her father, and if she trespasses, she will ask her father to forgive her sins." Princess Pingyang stood up, held up her big belly for more than six months, knelt down in front of Gao Zu, and bowed her head to the ground.

"You, what are you doing, hurry up, Dou Jiande's matter I know is indeed reckless, I will take it as a warning in the future, I can understand Erlang's anger, I ......" Gao Zu was taken aback, quickly got up, and stretched out his hand to pull his daughter up.

"Father, you have always been affectionate, and your love for our brothers and sisters is the same, I have never been biased against anyone, I can understand my father's affection, and Erlang can also understand it."

"Regarding the matter of Liu Heimin in Hebei, he did not take the initiative to stand up, I believe that he did not deliberately want to be angry with his father, but was in a dilemma. When his father dealt with Dou Jiande, he once advocated treating Dou Jiande favorably instead of killing him, but his father and his ministers disagreed with him......"

"As a result, everything is as he expected, exactly what happened, at this time he led the troops to the battle, whether it was victory or defeat, the faces of the courtiers would not look good."

"What's more, he felt that this was not a war that should have happened, but it happened, and he felt sad for the people of the world." Princess Pingyang said.

"Is this all what Jiro told you?" After hearing this, Gao Zu was silent for a while before speaking.

"No, Erlang didn't tell me anything, but I can understand his feelings, father, don't forget, I am also the one who leads the troops, and the Central Plains has been fighting for so many years since the beginning of the great cause of the previous dynasty."

"The people are not living well, and the population is not left behind, and any soldier who cares about his family and country will have such feelings after staying on the front line for a long time." Princess Pingyang said.

"......" Tang Gaozu.

I don't talk about the dialogue between Gaozu and Princess Pingyang, but I say that Shimin went home that day, discussed the matter with his subordinates first, and when he accompanied his wife to dine in the evening, he told his wife what Gaozu meant.

At this time, the eldest grandson was more than four months pregnant, and after listening to Li Shimin's words, he was slightly silent for a moment before speaking: "You pretended not to understand what your father meant in the palace, are you waiting for your sister to be the person who said Xiang?" ”

"Guanyin is smart, no matter what, as long as I start, you can always understand my heart, yes, I'm waiting for my sister to come forward, only she can untie this knot, otherwise, I am now rash to send troops, whether it is defeat or victory, the situation is very unfavorable to me." Li Erlang lightly tapped his wife's forehead and said with a smile.

"That Liu Heimin is indeed not an idle person, you ......" The eldest grandson princess glanced at her husband, and her tone was a little hesitant, Liu Heimin's matter has made such a big fuss this time, it is impossible for her not to hear about it.

"Don't worry, the person in this world who can defeat your husband has not yet been born." Li Shimin smiled slightly, his eyebrows were flying, and his confident tone and eyes made the eldest grandson look stupid for a while.

"Why, just then I found out how great your husband is, and he started to worship me?" Seeing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but put his face within a few centimeters of her, and said with a narrow face.

"No, before I married into the Li family, I knew that my husband was amazing, a rare great man in the world, and the most amazing hero in my heart." The eldest grandson stretched out his hand and gently stroked her husband's handsome face, and spoke softly.

"Guanyin maid ......" Li Erlang was stunned when he heard this, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, he gently lifted his wife's chin, lowered his head, and covered her soft lips.

The next day, Li Shimin came back from the court, and as soon as he entered the house, someone came to report that Princess Pingyang would come over at noon today, and that he would be chatting with the princess in Jinsheng Garden, and let him hurry over after he came back.

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, strode to Jinsheng Garden, and after coming in, he saw Princess Pingyang and his wife sitting in the flower hall drinking tea together, he walked into the flower hall and raised his voice to greet Princess Pingyang: "Sister is here." ”

"Erlang is back, well, look at your face, it seems that I am a little unhappy to see me here." Princess Pingyang turned her head to look at him twice, and said with a smile.

"My sister is serious, Guanyin's pregnancy mood is always not very good, my sister is willing to come and chat with her when she is free, I can't be grateful, how can I be unhappy?" Li Shimin suddenly shouted and hit the sky.

"Hmph, no wonder there is an old saying that if you have a daughter-in-law and forget your mother, you are now typical if you have a daughter-in-law and forget your sister, your daughter-in-law is pregnant, and your sister is not also pregnant?"

"Not only that, my month is more than a month older than Erniang, why don't I see you feel sorry for your sister?" When Princess Pingyang heard this, she was immediately unhappy, and immediately glared at him with a cold eyebrow.

"Poof, Sister Xiuning, if you want to eat about this, I'll go to your house tomorrow to chat with you." The eldest grandson and princess burst out laughing when she heard this.

"Then it's decided, tomorrow I'll let the shallow eyebrows in the house brew your favorite tea and wait for you." When Li Xiuning heard this, he immediately smiled.

As a person who has led soldiers and fought in battles, but now has a big belly and is inconvenient to go out often, the biggest preference is, of course, to have someone who has an appetite for her to often come to chat with her.

"Hmph, for your daughter-in-law's sake, I won't care about you." After finishing speaking, he turned his eyes to Li Shimin again.

"Sister, you talk to Erlang first, and I'll go see the dim sum." The eldest grandson princess knew that Princess Pingyang was coming over today, so she made two jokes and withdrew with a smile.

"Erlang, you should have guessed my intention, right?" After the eldest grandson princess left, the troubled look on Princess Pingyang's face suddenly stopped, and she looked at Li Shimin with a somewhat complicated gaze.

"Sister, but I've already seen my father?" Li Shimin did not answer the rhetorical question.
