Three days later, Li Jiancheng was hurriedly buried in the Qingliang Mountain area northwest of Chang'an City, because he was in his prime and did not build a mausoleum in advance, and his mausoleum could only be built in a hurry. In addition, his death was not a natural death, and it was not appropriate to make a big fanfare, so he had to do it simply.

Li Taiyinger took her clothes and accompanied the funeral procession to the mausoleum area and built a simple shed to live in.

As the crown prince, Wei Zheng and his wife also set up camp on the side.

The eldest grandson Wuwu sent Lian'er and a group of palace maids to serve.

The environment in the Qingliang Mountain area is harsh, and the local villagers learned that it was Li Shimin's son who went to guard the tomb, so they came to visit and brought a lot of rural souvenirs to give away.

I also saw that although Li Tai was young and spoke politely, he had the demeanor of Li Shimin, and he was even more praised.

Love me, love my dog. The fact that these people treated him like this shows how high his prestige is among the people.

He brought with him a large number of books, and he planned to take the opportunity to read poetry and books so that he could achieve great things one day.

In Chang'an City, the crown prince's canonization ceremony went smoothly.

When Li Shimin received the seal of the crown prince and faced all the ministers, he was full of emotion in his heart.

The seal represents only an identity, but it is this identity that made him pay a heavy price, killing his brother and killing his brother, and turning him from a gentleman to a rebel.

The eldest grandson stood beside him, holding the crown princess's treasure book in his hand, his face full of happiness and satisfaction.

Li Yuan, who was above the high hall, looked indifferent.

Perhaps his heart is turning over the river and the sea, thinking of the prince and the king of Qi who stood in front of him infinitely in the past, but now they have been sleeping in the ground, but they have become a dead nail in his heart.

"Congratulations to the crown prince, congratulations to the crown princess."

The courtiers kowtowed to congratulate, but Li Shimin didn't feel tears glistening.

"Prince ......"

The eldest grandson caress his sleeve lightly, and he came back to his senses. The afterglow of the eyes stares at this woman who has been with her since her girlhood, full of infinite tenderness.

He had waited too long for this moment.

Ever since the day his father promised him that he would be crowned crown prince upon his triumphant return, he had been waiting for this day with his heart and mind. What I had no choice but to wait for was a dead letter, as well as the repeated mutilation of my brother and brother. Now that he has finally got his wish, can he not be full of emotion?

Li Yuan said: "Today is not only the day of the canonization of the crown prince, but also the burial day of the former prince Li Jiancheng and the king of Qi Li Yuanji. The dead are gone, you must assist the prince well and build our Tang Empire into a world-class power. ”

"Obey the order, long live the emperor, long live."

The courtiers shouted long live.

Li Yuan continued: "However, there is one more thing, that is, the old department of King Qi and the former prince, most of them are the heroes of our Tang Dynasty, we must not hurt them, we must settle them well." ”

After speaking, Li Yuan glanced at the entire hall and landed his gaze on Li Shimin.

Li Shimin stepped forward and said: "Back to my father, as long as these old subordinates are willing to continue to be used by the imperial court, I will definitely treat them and my subordinates equally." ”

"What about Wei Zheng? The crown prince washed the horse Wei Zheng did not come to the court? ”

The waiter replied: "Back to the emperor, the prince Xima Wei thanked the former prince for his kindness and went to the prince's mausoleum to guard the mausoleum. ”

"Lord Wei is really different from everyone else, but unfortunately, such a talent is afraid that it will not be used by our court. Fang Aiqing, what do you think about this matter? ”

Fang Xuanling is the most powerful supporter of the Xuanwumen Change, seeing that his years of hard work are about to bear fruit, at this time, the emperor's question is difficult for him to answer.

Wei Zheng is the crown prince who washes horses, has always followed Li Jiancheng, and is the most important adviser in the East Palace.

Li Jiancheng's every plan to frame Li Shimin came from his hands, and now, Li Jiancheng has become a ghost under the knife, and he is in a dilemma whether to take measures or not. The emperor's heart, the big needle, although Li Shimin is still only a prince, this is only half a step away from the throne. He couldn't be sure if Li Shimin would open up to him?

But seeing that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were looking at him, did he dare not answer?

So, he said: "Back to the emperor, King Qin, no, the prince has always been a virtuous corporal, gathering capable people from all over the world, so that today I have the Tang Dynasty to dominate the world, Lord Wei used to be the prince washing horses, and now if you want to stay, it depends on his meaning, and Weichen does not dare to say anything." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji stood up from the queue and said: "Back to the emperor, the minister thinks that Wei Zheng is a rare talent in my Tang Dynasty, although he has a lot of black history before, he is loyal to every master. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, it was the time to employ people, and I thought it was best to continue to use them to wash the horses for the prince. ”

"It's just that Lord Wei has always done things alone, if he must be in the market and refuse to be an official in the court, then we can't force it?"

The ministers had different opinions, and Li Shimin said with a smile: "Don't worry too much, when he guards the tomb for the former prince expires, I will definitely look at the thatched house." ”

"Okay, bold. Retreat from the dynasty, and the union is tired. ”

Li Yuan looked around the entire hall, and his heart was mixed.

Without Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's halls, it still looks very crowded, which shows that this world has been the same without anyone. Thinking about the grandchildren who were all killed, I don't feel sad.

After receiving the promise of canonizing the crown prince, this Taiji Palace returned to its former lively appearance, but he always felt a smell of blood wafting in the air.

That must be the soul of the grandchildren, are they complaining about him? If it weren't for the fact that he had been indecisive, trying to find a balance among his three sons, wishful thinking that they would live in peace, such a tragic thing would not have happened.

canonized as the crown prince, the former Qin Palace naturally can't live anymore, and the East Palace is full of hundreds of ghosts of Li Jiancheng's family, men, women and children, and they can't live there.

Li Shimin and their wives and concubines moved to a new palace.

"Congratulations to the crown prince, congratulations to the crown princess."

A group of palace maids and eunuchs congratulated them one after another.

The husband and wife look at each other, overflowing with tenderness. On this full moon day, they are the only ones in the world who have a successful career and a happy marriage.

"Shimin, I don't know if Tai'er has settled down over there? This child is too young, and I am very worried. ”

Li Shimin smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, isn't Lord Wei there?" I'm sure Tyre wouldn't be homesick with him. ”

"Oh, why is that? Carefree does not understand. ”

"One is well-versed in the present, the other is studious and motivated, the two hit it off, it is better to pass the lonely and boring days, and besides, the husband is ambitious in all directions, as my son, it is also good for him to endure hardships."

The eldest grandson sighed without worry: "But after all, he is only six years old, and such an age is the age to be coquettish by his mother's side." Shimin, I just don't feel at ease. ”

"Don't worry, it's already like this, now that your wish has been granted, should you give me a few more sons, although I also have a lot of sons, but they are all concubines."

The eldest grandson blushed and said: "You don't have to worry about the withering of heirs, when you become the unification, when the time comes, there will be seventy-two concubines in the three palaces and six courts, what are you worried about?" ”
