Tai Chi Hall.

The light was bright, and the chief of the marching army who had returned from victory was drinking freely in the hall, which could be called a brilliant victory, Li Shimin said to Li Jing with a loud smile: "Aiqing, I have heard that the great dynasty has famous generals who can reach the sky, and my Tang Dynasty should be on Aiqing, I want to change the title of Weiguo Gong for Aiqing, and give 2,000 households of food." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Luo Xuanye whispered beside him: "The Han Dynasty has Han Wumu, and the Tang Dynasty has Wei Guogong, which complement each other and are considerable. ”

Since the Han Dynasty, Han Xin to describe a military general, can be said to be the highest praise, the history books say that he "this so-called merit is the same in the world, and a little less out of the world", and praised him "the country's warriors, the first in the Han Dynasty", "the king is not accepted, the success and retirement", the Eastern Han Dynasty posthumously awarded the title of "King Wumu", in the hometown of Huaiyin, the incense is endless, before and after his death, he has reached the peak of the ministers.

Luo Xuanye used Han Xin to praise Li Jing, which no one had ever expected.

Li Jing hurriedly said: "King Zhou Jun praised it, Li Jing is really ashamed. ”

Everyone knows that Luo Xuanye and Li Jing have no friendship, and there is even a little grudge between the two.

It's just that Luo Xuanye doesn't care about this grievance, and Li Jing is not a person with a small belly, so he has always maintained harmony.

But when Luo Xuanye's second son Luo Junzhuo was born, basically all the high-ranking officials above the fourth rank were invited, but Li Jing was not invited, who in Chang'an didn't know?

From this kind of thing, it can be seen that Luo Xuanye's true attitude towards Li Jing.

So what are you doing now?

Before this celebration banquet, when Li Shimin and Luo Xuanye were chatting, Luo Xuanye had no intention of saying casually: "Li Jing's merits, that's too big, the Winter Turks, the Western Yan Kingdom, the Liaodong Kingdom, the Western Turks, and the Tibetans, the five strong enemies of my Tang Dynasty, were pacified by him alone, and the ministers sat on the throne of this county, and they all felt a little ashamed. ”

The speaker may have no intention, but the listener has.

The palace was staggered, but Li Jing did not have the slightest sense of pride, after returning from the victory of the Winter Turks last time, he was beaten by Li Shimin, and since then, he has clamped his tail and behaved.

Hearing Li Jing's modesty, Luo Xuanye said again: "Duke Wei Guo doesn't have to be modest, I'm not as good as you, the generals in this palace and even the world are not as good as you, this is the truth, there is nothing to question." ”

Kill!

This is Li Jing's first reaction, originally Li Shimin didn't trust him, but now he has made a great contribution, Luo Xuanye, a person who has always been cold-faced, praised him like this, he was almost scared to death, and directly hugged his fists and said: "Please don't say it again, Li Jing's victory is just a fluke, it is because of His Majesty's trust that he can be the head of the march, and anyone who goes can achieve victory, this is all the glory given by His Majesty, not Li Jing himself." ”

Li Jing just came back, and he didn't know that just a few months ago, Luo Xuanye exerted his power in the imperial court and replaced the people around the crown prince Li Chengqian with a more reliable one, so he was not familiar with Luo Xuanye's slight changes.

Luo Xuanye turned his head to Li Shimin on the throne and said aloud: "Your Majesty, the minister heard that the beloved son of his parents is far-reaching, the minister has a daughter and two sons, and always wants to give them the best things, presumably Your Majesty is the same, the minister heard that the reward given by His Majesty to the King of Wei can be compared to the crown prince, and the power given to the King of Wei can be compared to the prince, and the minister has seen His Majesty's love for his son."

Some time ago, His Majesty canonized Zheng Guogong, the most Zhenguan Wenchen, as the young master of the prince, and asked him to teach the side of the prince's literature, the so-called sun and moon, yin and yang, one literature and one martial arts, is the way to be combined, and now the pinnacle of my Tang Dynasty generals, Wei Guogong, who can compare with the famous generals of the ancients, is here.

Why didn't Your Majesty transfer Wei Guogong to the Prince's East Palace, and let Wei Guogong teach Crown Prince Wu?

With the teachings of Zheng Guogong and Wei Guogong, presumably the crown prince can have half of His Majesty's abilities, and the future is enough to compare to a holy king. ”

How many years has Luo Xuanye not fought?

Since the sixth year of Wude, it has been more than ten years now, in these more than ten years, he has changed from a fierce general who rushed into battle to a mascot, and people's potential is always constantly stimulated, at first he couldn't say these words, and he wouldn't say them, but now he can say them fluently.

Luo Xuanye's words caused an uproar in the hall, and Li Shimin had a little expectation that he was able to maintain a little calm when he heard Luo Xuanye's words at this moment.

But what Luo Xuanye said is that there is really no problem, it's okay to love your son as a parent, and it's okay if you like King Wei, but don't forget your eldest son, also give him some things, such as Wei Guogong.

With Li Jing, Wei Zheng and Luo Xuanye here, even if Li Shimin favored Li Tai, the king of Wei, and overstepped the system, the people of the world also knew who Li Shimin's preferred prince was.

I think that Emperor Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty also wanted to abolish the crown prince, and in the end, Luo and Lu united a group of founding fathers, and this idea was forcibly extinguished.

Everyone in the palace knew Luo Xuanye's thoughts, and of course the prince and the king of Wei also knew that Li Tai's face was pale, and Li Chengqian's eyes were filled with tears.

Li Shimin looked at Luo Xuanye with a complicated face, and said slowly: "At the beginning, when the queen was the queen, I chose Qingyang as your teacher for the crown prince, and I really chose the right one." ”

When he first added glory to Luo Xuanye, Li Shimin hesitated in the air of the third division of the prince and the third company, and the eldest grandson queen strongly recommended choosing two of the three divisions of the prince, saying that "you can also give a reward to your brother-in-law in the future", now that I think about it, that smart woman is afraid that there will be some accidents, so she must be reliable Luo Xuanye to be the prince and the prince.

Nine years have passed, and it has really come true, Li Chengqian is in mortal danger, and Luo Xuanye is indeed as reliable as expected.

In fact, under the influence of Luo Xuanye and Empress Changsun, although Li Shimin did like the talented Li Tai, after all, everyone likes excellent sons, but he was not disappointed in Li Chengqian, nor did he think about abolishing Li Chengqian's crown prince.

Hearing Luo Xuanye's suggestion at this moment, he thought about it a little, and then thought of what Luo Xuanye said earlier about Li Jing's great merit.

The current Li Jing is indeed too much meritorious, the prestige in the army is too high, and it is impossible to go out again in the future, so instead of letting him be idle and appear to treat the heroes lightly, it is better to let him hold a prominent position in the prince's east palace, so that he can also give full play to his residual heat and stabilize the prince's position.

Let the people of the world stop thinking about some of the things that they don't have.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin touched his beard and said to the ministers in a deep voice: "I think what King Zhou Jun said is very reasonable, the prince is the prince of the country, just like the heir of the family inheritance of the people, it must be a weapon, so as not to ruin the family business, and the dynasty that the prince will inherit in the future must be a weapon."

Li Jing, the Duke of Weiguo, served as the crown prince Shaobao.

Teach the prince martial arts, do not seek to make the prince a famous general, but at least let the prince know the difficulties of military affairs, know the harm of war to the world, and know that it is not easy for soldiers to be difficult.

Don't be like Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, who conquered Liaodong three times, the world was exhausted, and the country was ruined.

Cheng Qian, go and meet your new teacher. ”

The prince can have many teachers, such as Kong Yingda and others at the beginning, who can be counted as Li Chengqian's teachers, but there are only six real teachers for the prince.

That is, the three divisions of the prince and the three young princes.

From the prince of the first product, the prince and the prince, and the prince and the prince.

From the second grade of the prince young master, the prince young master, the prince young guard.

From these six official positions, you can see how high the status of the crown prince is, and now these six positions are held by three people.

Luo Xuanye, who monopolizes the position of the crown prince and the prince and the prince.

The crown prince and the young master Wei Zheng, and the prince and the young guard Li Jing.

Under the gaze of everyone, Li Chengqian dragged his leg with foot disease and walked in the hall step by step.

He walked a little slowly, but steadily.

He looked up, his father was looking at him softly, his uncle and teacher had a smile in his eyes, and the ministers in the palace had different expressions.

Then Li Chengqian saw Luo Juncheng, who was the person who served as his middle house, laughing at him, and he was very relieved.

Li Chengqian had already had an experience, he came to Li Jing and bowed deeply, "Chengqian meets the teacher." ”

Li Jing's eyes were very complicated, Luo Xuanye, the king of Zhoujun, went around in such a big circle, just so that he could be the teacher of the crown prince Li Chengqian, and he could rest assured that he would hand over the prince Li Chengqian to himself, which showed that Luo Xuanye really had no ill will towards him.

But I have always liked Mingzhe to protect myself, but I didn't expect that when I came, I still got involved with the prince.

Throwing off the thoughts in his mind, Li Jing accepted Li Chengqian's salute as a teacher, and then bowed back and said, "Weichen greets His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Licheng, since then Li Jing has become Li Chengqian's crown prince Shaobao, protecting him.

Li Tai, the king of Wei, had a strong body, looking at this scene, his lips were bloodless, only reason was left to restrain him, and he knew that he was finished.

No matter how many people contact it, it is useless, in the past few years, the advantage was because King Zhou Jun had never made a move, and now King Zhou Jun made two shots in just a few months, and everyone immediately saw it clearly.

In Datang, who is the one who can influence the Son of Heaven the most.

In Datang, who can keep the status of the crown prince.

No matter how much he arranges, as long as he makes a slight move, he is no longer able to resist Xiaoxiao.

He told everyone that his name was Luo Xuanye, and if he sat here, the position of the crown prince would be as stable as Mount Tai!

The summer of the ninth year of Zhenguan, for Li Chengqian, was filled with beautiful colors, Wei Zheng and Li Jing became his teachers, escorting his position, no courtier thought that Li Tai, the king of Wei, would challenge his position, in this year, he married his wife who accompanied him for a lifetime, he watched his sister Princess Changle and his best brother Luo Juncheng grow up together into marriage, the love of his father and mother, the protection of his teacher Luo Xuanye, it was so beautiful, when he lay on the sickbed in his old age, he only said "I wish to return to Zhenguan for nine years, catch cicadas, Ode to Midsummer". - "Those Things in the Tang Dynasty"
