Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Hearing Li Chengqian's grievances, Li Gang's complexion suddenly tightened, and he put on a teacher's style, and shouted: "His Royal Highness, you are just a young minister of Dali Temple, so you should be cheaper than him. You shouldn't care about this now, you You should be concerned about how to clear up the relationship with Guo Ye. Perhaps, His Majesty the Emperor has already heard from the Empress about your dispatch of the imperial physician to Shuzhong. Therefore, you should express your position now, and your position is—"

"Guo Ye, it has nothing to do with you!"

"Ah? Royal Father!!"

Li Chengqian exclaimed, and his mind was full of thoughts. He knew that his emperor, Lao Tzu, valued filial piety the most. If he knew that he was recruiting and recruiting a person who was unfilial, he would definitely regard himself as the same as him.

Then the consequences, maybe, maybe, definitely, 100% pretty serious!

How could Li Chengqian not have foreseen the series of tragedies caused by such serious consequences from his life as a prince who walked on thin ice~~

Guo Ye, you are really a villain, a scourge of harming others and yourself, scum!

Li Chengqian kept cursing Guo Ye in his heart, and then asked for help: "My lord, how should this prince express his position to the emperor?"

Li Gang also stood there tremblingly, closed his eyes slightly, and began to meditate.

After about a few breaths, Li Gang suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of light flashed, and said happily: "Yes, the old man has figured out a way!"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian's shoulders slumped, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly shouted: "What can I do? My lord, hurry up, I'm really worried about the prince!"

Li Gang seemed to reminisce, and said: "This morning, His Majesty seems to have repeated the old story. He mentioned the matter of Guo Ye's capture of Jieli Khan, and later asked how to reward Guo Ye for his first contribution. However, because of the flood in the Yellow River, The matter, put this topic on hold."

After saying that, he suddenly took a few steps towards Li Chengqian, and whispered: "His Royal Highness, you should immediately enter the palace to meet the Holy Majesty. At this time, it is a great opportunity for you to get rid of your relationship with Guo Ye!"

In fact, Li Chengqian was quite depressed, he had nothing to do with blindly wooing Guo Ye, but he caused a lot of trouble before he wooed Guo Ye.

Now listening to Li Gang asking him to meet his father, he was really afraid to see him, the awesome and shining emperor Lao Tzu, and he was already in a panic. He didn't know what to do after he went to the palace to meet his father.

So with a pretty face, he cupped his hands at Li Gang and asked, "My lord, this prince is really full. Why do you say it's okay to provoke Guo Ye, a bad guy? Oh, I hope my lord Teach me, seeing Father, what should I say to get rid of my relationship with that bastard?"

Li Gang also felt the same and shook his head helplessly, sighing: "Yes, the old man also hunted geese and was pecked by geese all the year round. I misunderstood that Guo Ye's son was so nasty! As for what you should say after meeting the Holy One, the old man has already If you have a draft, don't be upset, His Royal Highness!"

Then he waved to Li Chengqian, who was only one step away, and said softly with a secretive look:

"His Royal Highness, please listen to me, the old minister will teach you how to tell the Holy Majesty..."

Chapter 340

After listening to Prince Zhan Shi Li Gang's face-to-face instructions, Li Chengqian left the teacher and sat alone in the hall of the Prince's Mansion, and left the mansion in a hurry, preparing to enter the palace to meet his father, His Majesty Li Er.

It is a top priority for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go out of the palace, so the movements are naturally not trivial.

The old guards in the Prince's Mansion shouted and assembled, responsible for opening the way and guarding ahead. Two horses from the Western Regions marched side by side, pulling the carriage side by side, and slowly heading towards the palace.

Sitting in the carriage, Li Chengqian was thinking about the words that Li Gang taught in person just now, and he calmed down a lot. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Fortunately, the prince has Fan Zhi on the left, and Prince Zhan Shi Li Gang on the right, helping each other, otherwise This time I really have to suffer a lot.

While feeling emotional, he also thought of Guo Ye, who caused him to make a wrong step and almost lost everything, and he felt resentful.

In the carriage, eyes widened with anger, braving the cold, he said word by word: "Guo Ye, you asked for this, don't blame the prince for being cruel and merciless!"

da da da da da...

The carriage went straight forward, exited Yongfu Square where the Prince's Mansion was located, entered Zhuque Street, and within a short while, arrived at the outer city wall of the Imperial Palace.

After entering the outer city wall, walk about ten miles straight and pass the Xuanwu Gate, which is famous in the world and hides countless stories and bloody memories.

After passing the Xuanwu Gate, Li Chengqian and his party formally entered the palace.

At the gate of Xuanwu, Li Chengqian got out of the carriage according to the rules, and ordered his guards to wait outside the gate of Xuanwu, not daring to overstep.

And he himself, led by a servant Xiao Huangmen, walked into the Xuanwu Gate, walked into the palace of the imperial city, and walked in the direction of Yeting Palace.

He knew that his father, His Majesty Li Er, would review the memorials in the Yeting Palace after the morning court, and would stay busy until dark before going to bed, and then he would rest in the harem ruled by his mother's eldest grandson Wugou.

Walking on the road leading to Yeting Palace, Li Chengqian looked at the scenery on the road from time to time, and could vaguely see the East Palace that should belong to him.

It stands to reason that in order to distinguish the difference between the prince and the kings, his highness the prince should live in the palace of the imperial city, and he should live in the east palace.

In addition to being able to prove to the world, to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and to the relatives of the emperor that he is the legal heir to the throne, he can also listen to the emperor's inquiries from time to time, and increase the relationship between the emperor and the prince.

Li Chengqian should have received this kind of treatment, but who let him have such a powerful Emperor Lao Tzu?

Who is Li Shimin?

One emperor through the ages, a rare Ming emperor, the Li Dynasty, the Great Tang Dynasty, at least half of the country was brought down by Li Shimin, so it can be said that he won the world immediately.

Even Li Shimin himself called himself a Khan.

With such an awesome old man on the stall, as a son, and as the eldest son, the crown prince, it must be more stressful.

The common people know that Lao Tzu is a hero, and Li Shimin is no different.

Therefore, he naturally has very high expectations for his son Li Chengqian. First of all, he believes that as a man of the Li family, as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he must not be spoiled and spoiled, and he must learn to bear it.

The status of the king of a country, coupled with the status of a strict father, let Li Shimin understand that although the words in the greenhouse are delicate, they are never as strong as the weather-beaten flowers.

So Li Chengqian stayed in the East Palace until he was about ten years old, that is, just after the first year of Zhenguan, and at the beginning of the first year of His Majesty Li Er's ascension to the throne, he kicked Li Chengqian out of the East Palace and asked him to open a government office outside.

……

……

Li Chengqian walked up the white marble steps following the small yellow gate, while looking at the East Palace, which he hadn't been to for several years, and sighed in his heart, when will this crown prince be able to enter the East Palace in a legitimate way.

Sighing in my heart, my interest suddenly faded a little, and I couldn't help shaking my head dejectedly, feeling a little bit of resentment towards my awesome father in my heart.

"His Royal Highness, please stop, we have arrived at Yeting Palace!"

Suddenly, the servant Xiao Huangmen in front stopped in his tracks, turned his head and stopped Li Chengqian's progress, and then continued: "His Royal Highness, wait a moment, and this servant will go in and report to the lord who is in charge of the internal affairs of Yeting Palace today. Let him pass the message on behalf of His Majesty, and His Highness the Crown Prince will come to meet the Holy Spirit."

Li Chengqian stopped in his tracks, groaned, and nodded his head to signal the little yellow door to let him go.

He knew how big the Yeting Palace was, and his father should be reviewing the memorial in the Nuanchun Pavilion at the deepest part of the Yeting Palace right now.

From Nuanchun Pavilion to the gate of Yeting Palace, there are nine bends and eighteen bends, guarded by imperial guards at every level, and guarded by imperial guards at all levels. No one is allowed to trespass without the servant in charge of Yeting Palace.

After a while, an old servant came out from the gate of Yeting Palace, with gray hair, old-fashioned appearance, shaved cheeks, wearing a red robe, holding a whisk in his hand.

He has known this old servant since he was a child, unexpectedly he is not the internal servant who usually works in the Yeting Palace, but the old servant next to his father, the elder brother who is in charge of the [-] servants in the palace, and the regular servant of the Ministry of Internal Affairs - Ping Si.

Ping Si is over [-] years old this year, and he was a servant in the former Sui Palace, but he has a deep friendship with the Li family. He once dealt with Li Yuan in front of Sui Yang Emperor, and even tipped off Li Shimin.

Therefore, after the Li family won the world, their fortunes rose and all boats rose. Not only did they gain the trust of Li Yuan, but after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he became the head of the eunuchs in the [-] palaces.

According to rumors that during the Xuanwu Gate incident, Ping Si had contributed a lot to Li Shimin, and had blood from Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and others' henchmen on his hands.

With this origin and loyalty, Ping Si won the trust of Li Shimin.
