Chapter 142: I was ordered to persuade the prince again
"That's it?"
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Shen say, and then roared: "This is still a trivial matter? He has already been said to be Qin II, is it still a trivial matter? He's the crown prince! In this way, how can I rest assured that I will hand over the country to him. Do you really want me to die as the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty? ”
Li Shen shrank his neck in fright, Li Shimin at this time was really angry, his six relatives didn't recognize him, and he couldn't even persuade the eldest grandson, let alone him, but since Li Shen came, he had to bite the bullet
"Aye, don't be angry. Why don't you let me go to the East Palace to see the situation first and have a good chat with my eldest brother. Last time, it was the eldest brother I advised, this time it should be able to work, if you don't use Aye, you go again, how can this little thing bother Aye? ”
"That's right, Erlang, let Shen'er go." Empress Eldest Sun said to the side
"Whew." Li Shimin exhaled, then glanced at Li Shen and said: "No matter what method you use this time, you must let that rebel return to the original appearance, you go to investigate who is bewitching the prince, and I will allow you to use some means if necessary." ”
As he spoke, he took out a jade pendant from his waist. This is not an ordinary decorative jade pendant, this is the same function as the waist card given to him by Li Yuan when Li Shimin ascended the throne.
"You have a jade pendant, whoever dares to stop you, you will show him. If you still stop you, you'll kill me. You go and find out the matter, I don't believe that Gao Ming will become like this in just a few months, the focus is on the subordinate officials of the East Palace. Remember to return me when you run out. ”
"Yes, Aye, I'll go now, and have dinner in the East Palace by the way." Li Shen took the jade pendant and saluted and withdrew from the Lizheng Palace.
After thinking about it, he left the palace and took his subordinates to the East Palace, and the guards of the East Palace saw that it was Li Shen who hurriedly went in to report. After a while, the crown princess Su came out to greet her, and Li Shen wondered in his heart if the prince was not in the palace?
"I've seen my sister-in-law, isn't my eldest brother here?" Li Shen saluted Su and asked
"Hey, let's come in and talk about it." Su Shi sighed, took Li Shen to the living room and sat down, and then the next person served tea.
"Tenth brother, your eldest brother is in the East Palace, but now he is having fun with a group of subordinate eunuchs in Youchun Fang. The guards didn't dare to report it, so they informed me. Su explained,
"Oh, then I'll go see Big Brother." Li Shen got up
"Tenth brother, your eldest brother has changed again. Listen to the slanderous words of the villains around you, you must persuade your eldest brother. Su Shi wiped his tears as he spoke
"Sister-in-law, don't cry, who is bewitching the eldest brother next to him?"
"Several of these subordinate officials who are more upright have been kicked out of the East Palace by your eldest brother, and now they are all sloppy and slapping horses, your eldest brother is young and fun, so they will change the law to cater to your eldest brother.
Among them, I think Zhao Jie is the most suspicious, and the Taichangle person was sent in by Zhao Jie. Su wiped away her tears.
"He sent it in? Sister-in-law, don't worry, with me, no one wants to harm the eldest brother. Saying that, Li Shen got up and led people straight to Youchunfang.
Youchunfang is a place in the East Palace, which was transformed into a place of leisure and entertainment by Li Chengqian, and when he entered Youchunfang, Li Shen heard the sound of drums and laughter.
Walking in, I saw a group of musicians from Taichang Division playing, playing, playing and singing, among them there was a delicate figure dancing, and more than a dozen people below were dancing Li Chengqian was surrounded in the middle, and the scene was extremely spicy.
Seeing that outsiders came in, the sound of drumming immediately stopped, and Li Chengqian was still silent and swaying from side to side in his environment.
"Big brother, I'm so interested. I didn't see that the eldest brother still has such talent, so why don't I tell Aya and let you go to Taichang Division to be the director. Li Shen smiled, but his tone was sarcastic
Li Chengqian looked over when he heard the sound, and saw that Li Shen was a little embarrassed.
"It turned out to be the tenth brother, why did you have time to see the eldest brother today. You're fourteen years old, you can't always stop drinking, so have a few drinks with your eldest brother today. ”
"It's okay to drink, but depending on whether the eldest brother's taste is a little too low, I guess you can't have any good wine in the house." Li Shen continued to smile and said to Li Chengqian.
"Oh. The tenth brother said that I don't know where my taste is low, but these are all people from Taichangsi. There is also this beauty named Satisfactory, so graceful and satisfying, hahahaha. Li Chengqian smiled proudly
"Big brother, you really haven't seen the world, just like that, you still talk about beauty. Besides, he's clearly a man.
The eldest brother's taste has changed, and there is no artistic conception at all. How can it be compared to my status as a prince, big brother, you are just playing in your small courtyard. When you go out, don't say it's a shame to be in our gang. Li Shen had a smile on his face
Li Chengqian listened to Li Shen's words and wanted to refute, but he thought that Li Shen's worth would definitely be able to find better musicians and dancers, so he could only refute it.
The eldest brother wants to drink and wait for the next drink, so I ask people to go and get some good wine. Let the eldest brother see what kind of wine those of us who are known as gentlemen by the people of Chang'an are drinking. As he spoke, he handed the stone behind him and asked him to go to the Dajidian to get a bottle of aged wine from the first year of winemaking.
Then Li Shen took his subordinates to Li Chengqian's side, and Li Shen didn't look at the people around Li Chengqian from beginning to end. I found a seat and sat down.
"Big brother, I heard that you have been lustful and promiscuous in recent months. Living in luxury. was also compared to Qin II" Hearing this, Li Chengqian's face suddenly became gloomy.
But I heard Li Shen continue: "I thought you were living a life of drunkenness, but it's better to be famous when you meet today." But that's it, just these things, ordinary rich merchants can play, and those things that don't look down on outsiders, you still entertain yourself here all day long, which tasteless person taught you. ”
Li Chengqian glanced at a man in his thirties next to him, and then laughed at Li Shen and said, "Haha, tenth brother, where am I as rich as you." I didn't make a lot of money last year. ”
"It's all small money, isn't making money just for a better life? But big brother, I didn't give you any less money. Why can't you have this taste?
It's a shame for you to play with your subordinates, and it's going to let my other brothers know that they don't know how to laugh at you. Why does the eldest brother think that the prince is tired, and he is ready to give up his position to others as freely as me? I heard that the fourth brother is very interested in this location. Li Shen said mockingly
"His Royal Highness King Ji, the crown prince Wencheng Wude, will definitely be a generation of Ming monarchs in the future. It's just that I'm tired from business, so I can rest and entertain myself, and it doesn't hurt. The man who Li Chengqian had seen just now came out and said.
Li Shen raised his neck and shouted, "Who are you who dare to intervene in the conversation between me and the crown prince." Don't you understand etiquette? Someone call me! ”
