Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin
Chapter 1740: Merit to the Prince
When Li Shimin walked out of the Liangyi Hall, the sun was shining brightly and the weather had begun to warm up.
"The sky is finally clear and no longer cloudy."
Li Shimin looked at the sky and made a double entendre.
"Yes, the spring breeze and warm sun bring everything back to life. It's another good year."
Li Chengqian looked up at the sky and echoed the words.
Li Shen's case has been plaguing Li Chengqian for a long time, but now the storm has finally come to an end.
The current ending can be considered a perfect ending.
"Gao Ming, don't blame Zhi Nu, blame me if you want to blame someone.
It's because I didn't discipline him strictly that he acted recklessly and did many wrong things.
If he does anything wrong in the future, I hope you can spare his life for the sake of our brotherhood.
Whether he is demoted to a commoner or sent into exile, let him fend for himself."
For some reason, Li Shimin suddenly said these words to Li Chengqian.
This surprised Li Chengqian a little.
He could tell from his father's implication that his younger brother might do something extremely outrageous.
Otherwise, why would they mention sparing his life, demoting him to a commoner, and sending him into exile?
Among the princes, only Li You was punished with such a serious crime, and that was the crime of treason.
If Li Shen had not pleaded for him, Li Shimin would have sentenced him to death immediately, and the grass on his grave would be several meters high by now.
Could it be that Li Zhi still dared to rebel?
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian bowed to Li Shimin:
"Aye, Zhinu is still young, and he wouldn't do such a big mistake.
But don't worry, Daye. I will follow your wishes and protect all my brothers and sisters.
If Zhinu makes a big mistake in the future, I will protect him."
No matter what, Li Chengqian still had to agree to his father's request.
And who can tell what will happen in the future?
After getting Li Chengqian's answer, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, I'm leaving now. By the way, when we discuss tax cuts, don't say that this plan was proposed by the Tenth Master. Just say that you came up with it."
"This... Father, doesn't this mean that my son is taking away the credit of my tenth brother?" Li Chengqian didn't quite understand what Li Shimin meant.
From what I heard, it seems like my father is trying to take credit for himself.
"Gao Ming, you are about to succeed to the throne, it's time to make some achievements.
You have made some military achievements, and occupying most of Goguryeo can be considered as expanding the territory of our Tang Dynasty.
But when it comes to state affairs, you follow the rules. Although you handle state affairs in an orderly manner, there is nothing outstanding about you.
With Lao Shi's policy, you will be able to achieve some political achievements.
Moreover, this is also to protect the tenth brother.
This policy may change some things. The Tenth Prince doesn't like trouble. I know him well.
Even if you ask him now, he won't care.
Of course you shouldn't ask, or he will ask you for money." Li Shimin patiently explained to Li Chengqian, fearing that Li Chengqian would have a psychological burden.
As the saying goes, a new official will make three big changes upon taking office. The same goes for the emperor. There will be some changes after he takes office.
This will make you appear to have made some achievements.
For example, when Li Shimin came to power, he changed some national policies of the Wude period and revised the rites and laws. The Wude Law became the Zhenguan Ritual, and the law became the Zhenguan Law.
Dozens of talented people participated in the compilation.
Li Chengqian is about to take the throne, but he has always been conservative. It may also be because the current policies are very perfect.
It may also be because Li Shimin was still alive and Li Chengqian did not dare to do anything drastic, so he has always been mediocre.
He was quite adept at handling state affairs, but he had no other means.
This made Li Shimin a little worried. He had been an emperor before, and even an emperor had to convince people and compete with ministers for the right to speak in the court.
In addition to relying on a tough attitude, another factor is political achievements.
Another thing is to gain recognition from the people of the world.
A good decree is enough to make an emperor go down in history, and Li Shen's method meets this requirement.
Li Shimin gave him to Li Chengqian instead of using him himself, which is enough to show his love and expectations for Li Chengqian.
"Father, but if my tenth brother knew..." Li Chengqian was not a person who valued things, he understood how much benefit this would bring to him.
"Don't worry, I will send someone to greet him. Given Old Ten's personality, as long as his money is not touched, this bastard doesn't care about anything else.
What a jerk. He has always valued money more than anything else. I don't know who he learned this from.
How could my Li family produce such a bastard? I feel so sorry for my ancestors."
The more Li Shimin thought about it, the angrier he became. Their Li family's ancestors were all prominent people, so how could they have a freak who was well versed in business?
Moreover, he is very good at defrauding and cheating Yang Yang, and he loves to take advantage of others.
"Yes, Aye." Li Chengqian bowed again.
Li Shimin nodded and turned to leave. Suddenly, Li Chengqian thought of something and said:
"Aye, please stay."
"Huh? When?" Li Shimin stopped and turned around and asked puzzledly.
Li Chengqian walked up to Li Shimin.
"Father, I heard something. I wanted to find out more about it before telling you, but since it concerns Gao Yang, I'd better report it to you."
"Gao Yang?" Li Shimin frowned immediately.
Gao Yang was once his favorite daughter. She had been spoiled since childhood, so she did some wrong things.
Li Shimin only found out later about how Li Shen handled the affairs of Gao Yang and Bian Ji.
He was very satisfied with the result of Li Shen's handling of the matter. If this matter were to be made public, it would be a great disgrace to their royal family.
Fortunately, Li Shen discovered it early.
Although everyone in Chang'an believed that Bian Ji committed suicide, the evidence was the sentence he wrote when he died: "The sea of suffering is boundless, turn back now to find the shore."
It seemed that he committed suicide because he had done something wrong, but Li Shimin had people search through the Buddhist scriptures but could not find the source of this sentence.
He even sent people to secretly inquire in major temples in Chang'an City but got no answer.
He began to suspect that there was something fishy about Bian Ji's death and that it must be related to Li Shen.
It has been a few years since this happened. Could it be that Gao Yang has had another scandal?
Li Chengqian explained:
"My Lord, I have recently heard that things are not going well in the Fang family. Lord Fang has passed away, and his son Fang has inherited the title of Duke of Liang.
The entire Fang family will be inherited by Fang Yizhi."
"Isn't this a reasonable thing to do?" Li Shimin interrupted.
“It is reasonable, but I heard that Gao Yang wants to split the family, and he also wants Fang Yizhi to give the title of Duke of Liang to Fang Yiai.
Anyway, it was a bit unpleasant.
Gao Yang once entered the palace to meet the emperor, but he did not meet him. This is the family affair of the Fang family, and it is not our business.
However, Mr. Fang is a meritorious official after all, and I don't want the Fang family to be in chaos and laughed at by outsiders because of Gao Yang.
So please ask Aye, how should we deal with this?"
After saying this, Li Chengqian bowed and asked for instructions.
If it were anyone else, it would be easy to deal with, but with Gao Yang here, he couldn't act rashly.
After all, Gao Yang is his sister and is deeply loved by Li Shimin, so of course he has to ask his father what to do.
