Chapter 367
Although Li Chengqian is the crown prince, he looks dignified, but in fact, he has no rights.

Perhaps because of his own experience, Li Shimin has actually been guarding against Li Chengqian.

The East Palace Liu led more than 1 people, but Li Chengqian could mobilize no more than 2000 people.

No one knows how many of them are confidantes arranged by Li Shimin.

Li Shimin arranged for him many famous teachers, Li Gang, Lu Deming, Kong Yingda, Yu Zhining, Du Zhenglun, Wei Zheng.

Just looking at these names, you can feel that Li Shimin attaches great importance to Li Chengqian.

Li Gang once taught Yang Yong, the former Sui prince, and Li Jiancheng, the hidden prince.

Lu Deming is one of the Eighteen Scholars of the Prince Qin's Mansion, a great Confucian of the generation, although his reputation is not obvious in history, but his knowledge cannot be denied.

Needless to say Kong Yingda, the descendants of Confucius are also great Confucians.

And Yu Zhining, Du Zhenglun, and Wei Zheng are all famous ministers who have left their names in history.

Confucianism, good ministers, from this point of view, everyone will feel that Li Shimin loves Li Chengqian very much.

But Fang Xuanling understood that Li Shimin was guarding against Li Chengqian.

One thing these people have in common is that they have no rights.

Li Gang, Lu Deming, and Kong Yingda will not talk about it.

Although both Yu Zhining and Du Zhenglun held high positions during Gaozong's period, Yu Zhining even served as a prime minister.

But during Li Shimin's time, their positions were not high.

Among Li Chengqian's teachers, Wei Zheng had the highest official position.

But Wei Zheng's temper is like a stone in a latrine, it is impossible to help Li Chengqian.

The ministers in the DPRK and China are all human beings. If Li Shimin did this, who would dare to get close to Li Chengqian?

Fang Xuanling is over 50, who will be the crown prince has little to do with him.

He didn't think that he would die behind Li Shimin.

As for his sons, he knows them very well, the eldest is rigid and the second is simple and honest. Although they are not dudes, he himself does not believe in their talents.

Li Shimin stared at Fang Xuanling, and said, "Xuanling, have we begun to have a relationship between the monarch and his ministers?"

Fang Xuanling got up quickly, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I am terrified!"

Li Shimin waved his hand and said: "Sit down, everyone says that the emperor is a lonely family, I only realized it today. When I was in the Qin Palace, you and Ruhui advised me and dared to say anything. Now that I am the emperor, You have become the prime minister, can I not even hear a word of truth from you?"

"His Majesty."

Fang Xuanling remembered that when he took refuge in Li Shimin, Li Shimin treated him very politely.

In order to repay Li Shimin's kindness, he tried his best to plan for Li Shimin.

Thinking of the past, it seemed like yesterday, and Fang Xuanling felt nostalgic for a moment.

Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling with burning eyes, and said, "Tell me, what do you think of Cheng Qian?"

Fang Xuanling sighed inwardly, knowing that he couldn't escape.

"Your Majesty, the crown prince is talented and intelligent, and there is no problem in maintaining the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty." Fang Xuanling wanted to say that because of the influence of the Xuanwu Sect, it was the best choice for Li Chengqian to inherit the throne.

But he thought about it, and finally didn't say it.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Xuanling, I want you to teach Gao Ming, are you willing to go?"

"Your Majesty!" Fang Xuanling looked at Li Shimin in shock.

Who is he?
He is Shangshu Zuopushe, Prime Minister of Tang Dynasty.

In ancient times, the left was the most respected, and it is not an exaggeration to say that people are under one person and above ten thousand people.

Li Shimin said: "Gao Ming is not young, and it's time to officially start learning how to deal with political affairs. Xuan Ling, you are experienced in dealing with affairs. No one is more suitable to teach Gao Ming than you. The most important thing is that I believe in you."

The last sentence can be understood as two meanings.

The first meaning is that Li Shimin believes that Fang Xuanling can teach Li Chengqian well.

Another meaning is that Li Shimin believed in Fang Xuanling, even if Li Chengqian wanted to rebel, Fang Xuanling would not help him.

Fang Xuanling understood that Li Shimin meant the second meaning.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is busy with things, and I am afraid that the prince will be delayed." Fang Xuanling refused.

To be the prince's teacher, and when the prince ascends the throne, he will be the emperor's teacher, which can be described as a supreme honor.

But Fang Xuanling knew the danger inside. Although Li Shimin now seemed to have no intention of storing easily, who could tell in the future.

"That's the matter." Li Shimin said without doubt.

"Your Majesty!" Fang Xuanling wanted to refuse, but seeing Li Shimin's expression, he finally said, "I obey the order!"

Li Shimin pondered for a while, and asked, "I remember your second son's name is Fang Yiai?"

"Return to Your Majesty, that's right." Fang Xuanling didn't understand why Li Shimin asked this suddenly.

"How old is it?" Li Shimin asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, it's fourteen." Fang Xuanling said.

"Fourteen, not too young, it's time to get married, is the marriage settled?" Li Shimin asked.

Fang Xuanling seemed to understand Li Shimin's plan, and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, not yet."

"I have a daughter, titled Yuzhang, 13 years old, gentle, respectful and thrifty, I intend to call Fang Yiai to be my son-in-law, what do you think?" Li Shimin said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Fang Xuanling bowed and saluted.

Not to mention that he has no intention of refusing, even if he had this idea, he would not dare.

……

When Lin Xuan was waiting impatiently, a young eunuch led a graceful young woman about 30 years old and walked in.

"I've seen Lord Hou, this Du Sanniang is the one Lord Hou wants." The little eunuch said.

It never occurred to Lin Xuan that the make-up expert he wanted was a beautiful young woman.

"I've seen Lord Hou." Du Sanniang said a blessing.

Lin Xuan waved his hand and said, "Excuse me, I need your help with something."

"Your Majesty is being polite, just do as you order." Du Sanniang said.

Lin Xuan looked at the little eunuch, and the little eunuch understood, and said, "Master Hou, tell me, I'll be in the afternoon first."

Lin Xuan nodded, and after the little eunuch left, he said, "Du Sanniang, can I trust you?"

Du Sanniang smiled and said: "Master Hou, for us, word of mouth is very important. I don't care about what Master Hou wants to do, and I won't ask too many questions. I just follow the prince's order and obey Master Hou's orders."

"I wonder if you can make up a person into a different look without revealing any flaws?" Lin Xuan asked.

Du Sanniang covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "Master Hou, this is my cooking skill, so naturally there is no problem."

"Fusang people are okay?" Lin Xuan asked.

Du Sanniang was taken aback, and said: "No problem, but I don't know the Fusang people well, so I need to wait until I do."

"Do you need my help?" Lin Xuan asked.

Du Sanniang shook her head, and said: "No need, didn't Fusang have a mission to Chang'an, I can observe secretly. However, I can only make up the appearance, and the movement habits of foreign races are different from those of Tang Dynasty. You can’t do it with makeup.”

"I understand this, how long will it take you?" Lin Xuan asked.

Du Sanniang thought for a while and said, "Two days."

Lin Xuan nodded and said, "Then I'll go back first. You will come to the Lin family in Zhouzhuang outside Chang'an City in two days."

He originally wanted to find someone, so he took him back.

But such a beautiful woman, he really didn't dare to bring him home.

"Yes." Du Sanniang replied.

When Lin Xuan left the East Palace, the image of Du Sanniang still appeared in his mind.

It is really a beautiful young woman like Du Sanniang, for a person of his age, the temptation is too great.

Lin Xuan shook his head, not daring to think about it.

He speculated maliciously in his heart: "Isn't this the one that Li Chengqian raised in the golden house?"
