Xiao Song hurried all the way into the palace, and the eunuch Zhongrui was already waiting at the palace 'gate', "Xiao's 'waiter' Lang Sheng is in the Zichen Palace." ”

After that, let an inner 'waiter' lead the way. Xiao Song was surprised in his heart, the Zichen Hall was the place where the emperor received important or close vassals, and it was so late, the Holy Lord should not still be in the Zichen Palace! Looking at Zhongrui's appearance, it seems that he is still waiting for someone, could it be that the saint has announced more than him?

The inner 'servant' walked very fast, and after passing through several palace 'gates', Xiao Song faintly saw the figure of Zhang Liang, the secretary of the criminal department, and immediately quickened his pace, "Zhang Shangshu." ”

Zhang Liang stopped, and when Xiao Song caught up, the two walked side by side to the Zichen Palace, Xiao Song greeted, "The weather has been bad recently, is Shangshu Laohan's 'legs' still good?" ”

Zhang Liang Shen 'groaned' and said, "I've gotten used to it for a long time, and now my body is strong and I can still hold it, but in a few years, it will be difficult to move an inch." ”

Naturally, you can't talk about the storage position casually in the palace, Xiao Song is just caring about Zhang Liang's condition and asking for news by the way. What he means is that now that the situation has changed, the prince is going to be unable to hold on.

And Zhang Liang gave a very clear answer, it should be stable at present, and it will be difficult to say in a few days.

Xiao Song got the answer, so he said, "The people in the lower officials are quite knowledgeable in medicine, let her take a look for you another day." ”

Ran Yan is a 'woman', although Zhang Liang has a high official position, he is not really good at agreeing, "How dare you work to order (km, the title of someone else's wife)." ”

"Xia Guan has worked with Zhang Shangshu for many years, and he also takes care of Xia Guan, you don't have to be so polite about such trivial matters." Xiao Song said.

Zhang Liang smiled slightly, "Then the old man is disrespectful." ”

After that, the two stopped talking and hurried all the way.

When they arrived at the Zichen Palace, there were already a few people sitting on the seats, Xiao Song took a look, it was Fang Xuanling, the eldest grandson Wuji, Chu Suiliang, Wang and others.

In Zichen Pavilion, unlike the Xuanzheng Palace, the courtesy of the monarch and the minister is slightly more relaxed. Xiao Song took a step behind Zhang Liang and walked to the front of the imperial case, bowed and saluted, "See the saint!" ”

"Sit down." Li Shimin's voice couldn't hear joy and anger, just a faint tiredness.

After Xiao Song took a seat at the tail seat, Cheng Zhijie and Wei Zheng walked in one after another, and after saluting, they also sat down separately.

The room was full.

Zhongrui walked down the wall with his head bowed and walked quickly behind Li Shimin. Li Shimin threw a roll of paper on the case..." Read. ”

"Yes." Zhongrui bowed forward and picked up the scroll of paper, opened it and glanced at it, and began to read it.

It was Sang Chen's recital, and some of the people present had already seen it.

Because the general recitals will pass through the Shangshu Province, after the memoranda is submitted to the Shangshu Province, they will be separated according to the important 'sex' of the content, and the important memoranda needs to be presented to the emperor for ordinary general 'sexual' affairs, and the Shangshu Province will handle it on its own, and then report to the emperor. Therefore, before Li Shimin knew about this matter, Shangshu Province had already started a discussion before he would present the excerpt.

"Zhongqing, do you have anything to say?" Zhongrui's voice fell, and Li Shimin asked slowly.

After a moment of silence, the king of the Ministry of Rites came out and said, "The minister is derelict in his duties, please ask the saint to surrender." ”

The King of Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites and the teacher of Li Tai, the king of Wei, sang Chen, all have the shadow of Li Tai in the evidence listed. Wang is more unlucky, he was appointed last year's teacher of King Wei, and this happened this year.

In fact, the king was surprised when he learned of this, he admired Confucianism, and he had both virtue and talent, and because Li Tai was also good at Confucianism, the saint appointed him as a teacher. At first, Wang was still very happy, after all, although Li Tai was arrogant, he was really talented and had a very good character. He would never have thought that Li Tai was inconsistent.

"I can't blame you for this, let's go back and sit down first." Li Shimin said. His anger was almost exhausted, and he was only thinking about how to deal with the matter, and he didn't want to ask anyone about his guilt first.

The saddest thing for him was Li Tai, who originally thought that he was filial and sensible, but he was also thinking about that position!

Sang Chenna is a very unsophisticated and stubborn person, coupled with Sang Chen's twists and turns and the listed evidence, there is almost no need to verify, Li Shimin can figure out the reason for this matter.

"Holy Lord, the minister believes that this matter should be verified before making a final conclusion." Wei Zhengdao.

Li Shimin nodded, the necessary verification is still needed, "This matter is 'handed over' to Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Dali Temple and the Criminal Department." ”

"Holy Lord, should we arrange a teacher for the prince?" The implication of the eldest grandson Wuji's words was that there was no suitable person to discipline the prince, so that he could do such a thing. This is still secondary, and the eldest grandson Wuji also intends to test Li Shimin's attitude.

Li Shimin chuckled meaninglessly, "Let's discuss this matter again." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji's heart sank, and this matter may be tricky. In fact, he is becoming more and more disappointed in the prince, but for the sake of the eldest grandson, he must keep the prince no matter what.

There was silence in the hall, and no one made a sound.

"Prince ······" As soon as Li Shimin's voice came out, although everyone looked at their noses and noses, they all pricked up their ears in unison, and only listened to Li Shimin's sad words, "It's so disappointing to me!" ”

Everyone is still not alarmed, but their hearts are already terrified······ Obviously, it is a pity to abandon it!

The eldest grandson Wuji was even more nervous, but he had to calm down, pick the right time to speak, and not appear too eager.

Xiao Song is very calm in his heart, no matter whether the prince is abolished or not, it is not painful for him, but he is more concerned about the new prince candidate.

"In recent years, the prince has made no achievements in his voice, so how can I rest assured that Datang will be 'handed over' to him!" The more Li Shimin thought about it, the more heartbroken he became, Li Chengqian was still a very good child before, what was the reason for him to become more and more ridiculous?

Li Shimin, whether as a father or the king of a country, has never found a reason.

Even though the eldest grandson Wuji, Hou Junji and others experienced strong winds and waves, listening to these words, they still raised their hearts.

"Do you think King Wu's talent and virtue can be a king?" Li Shimin said.

Everyone couldn't help but escalate their surprise to their faces, and they all looked at Li Shimin in amazement, and Xiao Song's heart also sank. Li Ke definitely has the potential to be an emperor, not only does he have, but I am afraid he will also be a monarch who has made great achievements. But......

"Xuan Ling, you say!" Li Shimin saw that everyone did not speak, so he began to point out.

All eyes were on Fang Xuanling, and he groaned and said slowly, "Wu Wangke's talent and bearing are indeed heartbreaking, and he has a bit of a holy demeanor. ”

Even Li Shimin himself has said that he is "like himself", which is obvious to all. But maybe because of this, Li Shimin will always guard against him.

Li Shimin himself came out of the pool of blood of killing his brother and killing his brother, and his great military exploits back then made his brilliance far overshadow that of Prince Yin, if Prince Yin ascended the throne, he might not be able to tolerate him, in order to protect himself and for power, and finally to the point of fratricide. Every time he dreams back at midnight, he will dream that father and son and brothers fought side by side, subverted Sui, and laid down the Tang Dynasty step by step, and every time, he would burst into tears. He didn't want his son to repeat the Xuanwu 'Gate' change.

Now the crown prince and the king of Wei have disappointed him very much, so it is better to simply set up the king of Wu.

Fang Xuanling's words were like a drop of water dripping into the oil pot, the eldest grandson Wuji could still calm down, but Hou Junji couldn't sit still.

"Yes." Fang Xuanling's words changed, "Since ancient times, the emperor has established the elder but not the young, and the heir has not established the concubine, if it is easily changed, I am afraid that the dynasty will be prone to 'chaos'." ”

Fang Xuanling's gist is: Li Ke is good and has the talent to be the prince, but the prince is an orthodox descendant, and he should inherit the unification if he is serious. The best thing - is the word "easy". Anyway, it can be like this or that, everything depends on the meaning of the sacred.

Every sentence is the key point, but he didn't express his position, and he didn't say anything at all.

"Xiao Aiqing, you come." Li Shimin pulled out the youngest Xiao Song, and he wanted to hear the truth now.

Now everyone's expressions are all kinds of 'fine' colors, Xiao Song's father Song Guogong once served as the prince's young master, and has the name of master and apprentice with the prince, and Li Ke has an in-law relationship with the Xiao family, the answer is difficult! Everyone wanted to see how he dealt with it.

Xiao Song replied respectfully, "What Fang Xiang said was to the point, and his subordinates had a lot of understanding after listening to it, and they agreed very much. ”

The old ministers were all slightly stunned, this one is even more powerful, and one came directly: I am tender, I don't know much about these things, and I listen to the insights of my predecessors with an attitude of humble learning.

Li Shimin was also stunned for a moment, if this matter was put on Song Guogong, he would be able to get a relatively clear answer, at least, if he didn't want to answer, he would say he didn't know. Xiao Song and his father's 'sex' are really different.

"Since that's the case, let's find a way to change Wu Wangke." Li Shimin's original intention was not to establish the king of Wu, but for such a sensitive matter as the prince, these sleek and sophisticated guys will not give any fierce information, and no one will express useful opinions.

"I don't think so!" Even if Hou Junji knew that it was a pit dug by the saint, he would have to jump Li Shimin leaned on the backrest, changed to a slightly more comfortable position, raised his eyebrows and said, "Why?" ”

Hou Jun Jidao. "As Fang Xiang said, although Wu Wangke is quite talented, he is not a descendant, and it is really contrary to what the saint said at the beginning."

When Li Shimin ascended the throne, he once said that he would not establish a successor, and he would not establish a young man.

Cen Wenwen arched his hand towards Li Shimin and said, "Sheng, your subordinates think that the throne should be succeeded by a sage, and if the prince is virtuous, he is the best, but if the elder is not virtuous, will he have to bury the sweat and blood to fight down the Tang Dynasty?!" If you talk about concubines, the son is more precious than the mother. ”

Cen texts are generally low-key, but they should be shot when it is time to make a move. He didn't say it clearly, but the meaning was very clear, and he would know it if he thought about it a little, what is a concubine? Out of the main room is the concubine. Li Ke's mother, the Yang family, is a former Sui princess, who combines the noble blood of the Yang family and the Dugu family, and it is not impossible to seal it.

As soon as this remark came out, there was immediate opposition.

There was a constant noise and shouting in the hall, which was exactly the opposite of what had happened before.
