The Wei Wangfu is hundreds of meters away from the Taiji Palace, but it is a big deal to send letters with carrier pigeons, and such a favor is only unprecedented.

As a party he was happy. Li Shimin has so many children, only he enjoys such an honor, what a glory it is.

In the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin got Li Tai's reply and wet his clothes with tears.

On a white tissue, the pen wrote vigorously: "This life is a son of you, and it is a blessing for Tai." ”

He wiped away a handful of tears, handed the letter to the two ministers, and said, "Look, Lian is right, this little thing is indeed a good messenger." ”

"Your Majesty, King Wei is getting better and better at talking."

"Your Majesty, King Wei's calligraphy is getting better and better."

Li Shimin sighed: "It's a pity. ”

Fang Xuanling asked puzzledly: "What does the emperor mean by this?" Isn't it just an epistle? Why do you feel so much? ”

"Two, as the founding ministers of the Tang Dynasty, do you think it is scientific to establish a successor or a young man on the issue of the selection of the crown prince? I really don't dare to compliment. ”

Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji looked at each other, and said in unison: "Establishing a prince is the foundation of the country, and the emperor must not have the idea of replacing the prince." ”

Li Shimin sighed: "The two of you are too careful, I just sighed." Retire, I'm tired. ”

Regarding Li Tai's offer to go to conquer the country of Luojia, although he was very pleased, he wavered. How could he be willing to let his beloved son suffer from the war? Moreover, there are so many military generals in the DPRK and China, and it is not his turn to come forward as a child, so the Luo Jia Congress thinks that they have no one in the DPRK?

Furthermore, he worries that history will repeat itself. The lessons of the past are like yesterday. If it weren't for the crown prince Li Jiancheng to supervise the country, it would not be his turn to make great achievements.

Why not take this opportunity to test the two sisters-in-law? What is their attitude towards external defense?

Thinking of this, he said to his personal eunuch Li Yanmian: "Quickly pass on the prince, there is something important to discuss." ”

Li Yanmian agreed.

Li Shimin took off his dragon robe, changed into ordinary clothes, messed up his hair, and made a sick look, just waiting for his eldest son to come to see him.

After waiting for half an hour, Li Yanmian came to report: "Your Majesty, the prince will come to see you immediately." ”

Li Shimin frowned and asked, "How long has it been?" Li Yanmian, what is the prince busy in the East Palace? I don't see a single person every day. ”

Li Yanjin lowered his head and said, "The prince said that he has something important to do, so he will delay for some time." ”

Li Shimin snorted and said angrily: "Cheng Qian mistook me." ”

At this time, Li Chengqian had already come to him, he was disheveled, and he looked lazy, Li Shimin was disgusted for a while, and asked, "What is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince busy with?" Didn't have the effort to come to see the union? ”

Li Chengqian was so frightened that his face turned pale and said: "Back to my father's words, my son's ministers read until late at night last night, and they are not in good spirits today, so I delayed some time, please forgive my father." ”

"I'll forgive me? Now that the border is restless, Luo Jiaguo raises the flag with the intention of me to go to the Tang Dynasty, I forgive him? ”

Li Chengqian had seen him speak in such a tone, so he knelt down and said, "Erchen didn't mean it, and he didn't dare to snub his father if he gave Erchen a few guts." ”

Li Shimin softened his expression and said, "Get up, this matter is not to blame in the past, as the crown prince, what do you think of Luo Jiaguo's invasion of my border pass?" ”

"Father, the son is still young, I'm afraid I can't say it well."

"How old are you and how young are you? Are you the kind of age to breastfeed in your mother's arms? You are not too young, can you use your brain more, how to govern the country well? Look at King Wei, who is younger than you, and he begins to worry about the country and the people. ”

Li Chengqian saw that he didn't have a good face, and he was already timid, and he was at a loss when he was reprimanded by him.

"Get up? Sit and say. ”

Li Shimin pulled him and put away a serious expression, inevitably feeling a little unbearable, after all, he was also born by himself.

Li Chengqian stood up and said, "Father, Luo Jiaguo just wants some food, just give them some. ”

Li Shimin couldn't bear it anymore at this time, and said, "This is your idea? Li Chengqian, if you are asked to be the emperor, do you plan to do this? ”

"Father, the son just thinks so, what you want to do depends on what you mean."

Li Chengqian saw that Li Shimin was angry, and he still dared to sit there, and he was angry there.

"Alas, it's a pity that I take you so seriously, but you look like this, which really disappoints Lian, you go and learn more about governing the country."

Li Chengqian agreed with relief: "The sons obey the order." ”

"Your Majesty, what are you doing here? Will you scare the prince ? ”

A woman's voice floated like spring breeze and rain, Li Shimin turned around, and the eldest grandson walked out from behind the screen.

"Worry-free, when did you come?"

Empress Eldest Sun replied with a worried face: "I've been here for a while, and I didn't dare to disturb when I saw your father and son talking about things. Your Majesty, you can't do this, the prince is young, and what he needs is your teaching, not accusation. ”

"You think I'm willing? Don't worry, you said that they were all born by a mother, why is the difference so big? When the younger brother is ambitious, a sincere heart, but what about him? It is the helmsman of the country in the future and the hope of the Tang Dynasty! ”

Empress Eldest Sun stroked the back of Li Shimin's hand and soothed: "You are too impatient, hundreds of people, how can you ask them to be the same?" Your Majesty, I thought about letting Tai'er go on the expedition for a long time, and I felt that it would definitely not work. ”

"Why not? Boys have to exercise since childhood, how can they see a rainbow without wind and rain, I had an opinion with you just now, and now I have changed my mind and let him take command. ”

Empress Eldest Sun's face changed greatly, and she retorted: "By all means, he has only read some classical subsets, which are nothing more than some paper talk, in case there is a mistake, I am afraid that I will regret it." ”

Li Shimin smiled and said: "You are too worried, I let him take command and go on the expedition just to show them, and there is no need to mobilize the army to clean them up, my Li Shimin's son can make them bow down and be subordinate." ”

"But he doesn't know anything? Are you brave enough to do it for a while? ”

"Worry-free, you are a woman, where do you know this. Don't worry, Feng Li and Xie Shufang, the generals under the command of the prince in the past, have not gone on an expedition since they followed me, and the two of them will definitely be fine as deputy marshals. ”

The eldest grandson breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is very good. Your Majesty, the concubine has one more thing to remind you. ”

Li Shimin smiled softly and said: "It's enough to have a Wei Zheng in the union, and another female Wei Zheng?" Then I don't want to sit in this position at all. ”

The eldest grandson said without worry: "Your Majesty, your loyalty is against your ears, now you are high, all you hear are beautiful words, and you can hear different words, that is your luck, you should be happy." ”
