The prince of demons
Li Tai couldn't help frowning after listening to Gao Shilian's words.
After a while, he opened his mouth and asked Gao Shilian, "But those rumors are the truth, why can't the students take advantage of them?" ”
Gao Shilian opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty is bent on maintaining the orthodoxy of the crown prince, and will naturally do his best to do his best for this.
At this time, the more the outside world opposes His Majesty the Crown Prince, the more vigorously support it.
He would rather devote more energy to teaching the prince than admit that his choice was wrong. ”
Li Tai frowned and said, "Then the teacher thinks that what the student should do at this time is the correct solution?" ”
Gao Shilian's fingers tapped on the armrest of the seat for a long time, and finally he had an idea.
I heard him speak: "Your Highness should immediately stop participating in those rumors.
With the help of His Highness's current position, he can show himself in front of His Majesty.
If you want Your Majesty to give up the crown prince and choose His Royal Highness, the only way to do so is if His Highness's performance is better. ”
After hearing this, Li Tai lowered his head and pondered.
He now has a lot more opportunities to contact his father than before.
Since taking office, he should have been satisfied with the few recitals.
The most important thing is that I can now observe my father's attitude and methods when dealing with government affairs up close.
Combined with Gao Shilian's guidance to himself, he can quickly improve his ability to handle government affairs.
Thinking of Li Chengqian's current performance, Li Tai has a little confidence in his heart.
Thinking of this, he nodded to Gao Shilian and said, "The student already knows how to behave.
Fortunately, the teacher reminded the students not to go astray. ”
Gao Shilian said with a smile: "Your Highness has just entered the court, and many things are naturally unfamiliar.
It only takes a little time for His Highness to analyze the pros and cons himself. ”
Gao Shilian's suggestion made Li Tai quickly withdraw from the rumors that were unfavorable to Li Chengqian.
But at this point, it doesn't matter so much with or without his involvement.
In the past few days of the Yuan Day holiday, Li Chengqian took advantage of the fact that no one supervised him and acted indiscriminately in the prince's mansion almost every day.
On the school field of the prince's mansion, Li Chengqian began to behave early in the morning.
At this time, there were more than a dozen tents on the huge school grounds, and guardrails were fenced off outside the tents.
The largest tent in the middle was Li Chengqian's royal court.
The surrounding tents represent the steppe tribes.
He divided his hand-picked guards into groups of five and assigned them to one tribe after another.
Not only did these guards look like Turks, but they even looked very similar when you looked closely.
I saw him dressed himself as a Turkic khan, lying on the ground with a painful face.
At this time, he said to the attendants around him: "I am now a Turkic Khan, and I am about to die of illness.
You will have to use the Turkic customs to give me a funeral later.
Wait a minute, give me a good performance, if anyone doesn't play well, the prince will kill him. ”
A large group of guards around him all nodded quickly with fear on their faces at this time.
After Li Chengqian saw these people nodding, he pretended to be in pain for a while, and then pretended that he was dead.
Seeing this, the guards hurriedly got on their horses one after another, and began to cry bitterly around Li Chengqian's "corpse".
At this time, the cries of these people are absolutely from the heart.
After running for a while, they all began to cut their cheeks with the knives they carried with them.
This is a good big living person, in order to accompany the prince to act, he has to disfigure himself, and whoever he is has to cry out loud.
Li Chengqian waited until the end of these people's performances, and immediately got up from the ground happily.
I only heard him say to everyone: "You are very good at waiting for the performance, and the prince will reward you heavily." ”
After he finished speaking, the guards all covered their cheeks and bowed and thanked Li Chengqian.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian continued to say happily: "After the crown prince inherits the throne, he will go to Jincheng every year to hunt.
At that time, the prince will also untie his hair like the Turks and gallop on the steppe. ”
After listening to Li Chengqian's words, the guards began to praise Li Chengqian's wisdom and martial arts.
However, they all despised Li Chengqian in their hearts.
The Tang Emperor didn't do it, and he only thought about learning the way of life of the Hu people all day long.
I'm afraid that such a prince doesn't have something wrong with his brain, right?
No one can be sure whether there is something wrong with Li Chengqian's brain.
But Li Shimin's brain began to hurt just after the end of the Yuanri holiday.
Yu Zhining, the left concubine of the crown prince, and Zhang Xuansu, the new right concubine of the prince, jointly found Li Shimin on the first day of construction.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince vigorously promoted the Turkic style in the East Palace, and sent people to steal folk cattle and horses for his own pleasure many times.
Now the victims are complaining, and the people are even more questioning the prince's virtue.
Although the ministers dissuaded him many times, His Royal Highness still did not change his mind, and asked His Majesty to personally issue an edict to apply for punishment. ”
Yu Zhining, the prince's left concubine, spoke first.
After listening to his words, Li Shimin spoke: "I don't know why the two adults know why the prince has always been polite before, but suddenly he has become like this?" ”
Yu Zhining opened his mouth and said: "The ministers have never relaxed their discipline of the prince, why the prince is so ministered, I really don't know. ”
Li Shimin sighed: "The prince has just fallen seriously ill, and he is already in a depressed mood.
Should the two Aiqing relax their restraint on the crown prince a little, so as not to make him resist? ”
After Li Shimin's words were finished, Zhang Xuansu immediately spoke: "Your Majesty has an order, and the ministers dare not disobey.
But if this causes the prince to develop bad habits, the ministers and others will not be able to do anything. ”
After Li Shimin heard Zhang Xuansu's words, he frowned again.
This Zhang Xuansu had just been transferred from the middle of the matter to the East Palace, and he expressed his dissatisfaction with the prince's behavior many times.
Could it be that there was a feud between him and the prince?
Thinking of this, Li Shimin immediately denied this inference in his heart.
Because he suddenly thought that Zhang Xuansu also had this attitude when he was by his side.
Li Shimin opened his mouth and said to Zhining and Zhang Xuansu: "I can understand the worries of the two Aiqing.
But the prince's body did not heal at this time.
Should the two Aiqing think more about this point to relieve some pressure on the prince? ”
Yu Zhining spoke: "Your Majesty, the crown prince is the prince, and now he is already an adult.
If we can't overcome even a few physical pains, how can we inherit the throne in the future? ”
Li Shimin had a headache when he heard that Yu Zhining began to talk about Li Chengqian's ability again.
He hurriedly opened his mouth and said to the two: "I already know the thoughts of the two Aiqing.
After I finished handling the official business in my hand, I went to the East Palace with the queen.
I think that the queen should be able to channel the prince's emotions. ”
Yu Zhining and Zhang Xuansu glanced at each other and then said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise, and the ministers are waiting for Your Majesty's good news." ”
