Chapter 666 The Queen teaches her son

"God, tell me, what's going on?"

In the Lizheng Hall, in front of Wu Mei and his son, Empress Changsun asked Li Chengqian in unison.

"My mother..." Li Chengqian looked up at Queen Changsun, and then shouted lightly, then lowered his head and said nothing. However, he glared at Wu Mei next to him again, as if he was blaming her for secretly reporting and stabbing the matter to Queen Mother.

"Don't blame Mei Niang for this matter," he put Li Chengqian's expression in his eyes, shook his head slightly, and Queen Changsun said indifferently: "If it weren't for the fact that the Japanese Palace is concerned about Xiao Zhaoer and Mei Niang and others, Xiao Dezi walked to the East Palace, and the Crown Princess is afraid that you will be locked in the 'Zhiqiu Pavilion' by you."

It is difficult for a clean official to make a decision on family affairs. After all, they are living together. Therefore, although Empress Changsun was angry with the prince's excessiveness, she still focused on persuasion when speaking, leaving some extra face to the prince and the prince's concubine, so as not to arouse the resentment in their hearts and cause trouble.

"The affairs of the Eastern Palace are not in the harem, but in the prince's internal affairs. The queen shouldn't have been in charge of it," said Empress Changsun, after a pause, she looked up at Li Chengqian again and said, "But, this time, what you did, god, is a bit too much."

"Not to say whether Mei Niang is right or wrong, but you just lock her in the 'Zhiqiuke', ignore her and don't ask anyone to take care of her, it's wrong."

After patting his precious grandson in his arms, Empress Changsun continued pitifully: "Zhao'er is still young and is only three months old. Why do you have the heart to separate them from their mother and son? I heard Xiao Dezi tell this to the palace that when he first went to the East Palace, he heard Zhao'er crying. It's pitiful, how could a little man who is so big leave his mother's arms?"

"It was those wet nurses who didn't take good care of themselves. They just turned around and replaced those useless slaves." With his head down, Li Chengqian replied lightly and avoided the importance, citing all the mistakes on the wet nurses who were breastfeeding the eldest grandson of the emperor.

"Okay, since the prince doesn't want to say this, let's talk about the matter itself." Seeing that Li Chengqian still had no intention of admitting his mistake, Empress Changsun sat upright and asked Li Chengqian in a solemn voice: "Listen to the people below, your argument with your son-in-law is for a singing girl from a flower shop, right?"

"Mother, this, my son has already known his mistake!" Seeing Empress Changsun asking about this, Li Chengqian did not dare to shirk it, and no longer said anything. He bent over and bowed his head and took the lead in admitting his mistake to Empress Changsun: "It was Mr. Changsun who lost his mind for a while and was tempted by others. In the future, my son will never go there again if there are fireworks."

At the critical moment, Li Chengqian sold Du Yanzhi without hesitation. The fellow Taoist who died was not dead. Besides, this incident was indeed caused by him, so he was not unfair.

"You...!" Seeing Li Chengqian like this, Empress Changsun couldn't help but sigh again, without caring about her subordinates at all. She gave her subordinates without thinking about what happened. She didn't know how to win people's hearts and only protected her subordinates. Who would really follow you, submit to you and give advice for you in the future?

After so long, I sat in the position of the prince for several years, why did this god still not make any progress? I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with Li Chengqian. The various achievements made by Li Chengqian have become much weaker in the eyes of Empress Changsun.

"Okay, let's just let this happen. I'm a little tired and don't want to pursue it anymore." He raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows gently. Empress Changsun made a decision directly: "I don't care about Du Yanzhi's affairs, and the Crown Princess's punishment will be terminated. Xiao Dezi will be sent back to the East Palace later."

He looked up at Li Chengqian, and finally felt a little reluctant and didn't want to give up. He couldn't help but want to mention him again. After a moment of pause, Empress Changsun said softly: "Kan'er stay, my mother has something to say to you."

After saying that, Empress Changsun waved her hand lightly, handed the little grandson in her arms to Wu Mei, and signaled them to retreat first. For a moment, she and Li Chengqian and his son were left in the entire Lizheng Hall.

"My mother..." Li Chengqian stood in the hall with his head down. Seeing that Queen Changsun looked bad and said nothing for half a day, Li Chengqian couldn't help feeling a little nervous. He looked up carefully and bowed his hand and shouted softly.

"Oh, forgot, just sit down aside." After looking at the eldest son, Empress Changsun couldn't help feeling soft, sighed lightly, waved her hand to signal Li Chengqian to sit down next to her.

"In the past few days, the prince has been lingering in the prince's and prince's palaces with Mr. Liu, but what have he gained?" Empress Changsun sat up straight and found a more relaxed topic first and asked Li Chengqian for a while.

"Mr. Liu's medical skills are well-versed. Wherever he passes, the medicine is cured. My son has benefited a lot from Mr. Liu's aftertaste."

"Well, this is not the first time. Mr. Liu's kindness is what you should do to keep in mind." Agricultural equipment, curing diseases and saving lives, and curing rivers and eliminating epidemics, Li Chengqian's benefits from Liu Yi are not just like this.

"My dear things, I remember them all. Mr. Liu's kindness, I dare not forget Mr. Liu's kindness." Li Chengqian bent slightly and replied softly: "If you have the chance in the future, I will never treat Mr. Liu and his family unfairly."

"Well, it's good that Gan'er has this idea." Looking up at Li Chengqian, Empress Changsun brought a bowl and drank a little hot tea, and asked him in a low voice: "Gan'er should have known about Qi Di and Yin Fei, right?"

"I've heard from my mother." When my mother asked about this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but feel nervous and bowed and replied respectfully: "The fifth brother is planning a rebellion and should be punished according to the crime. But my son did not expect that the Yin Concubine, who has always been soft and gentle on weekdays, would do such a ruthless act."

"What Concubine Yin's sister did was indeed a bit unexpected," Empress Changsun nodded slightly and said, "However, the deep love between mother and son is understandable. If Li You's children were successful, even if they were unable to compete for the position of prince and were at peace in Qi, why would Yin's concubine come on this path?"

"My mother said it," she heard some other meaning from Empress Changsun's words. Li Chengqian did not dare to say more, and echoed with a word, acting like listening to the teachings, and not saying more.

"Well," Seeing Li Chengqian like this, Empress Changsun couldn't help but nodded lightly again. She could hear something. The child was still not too stupid: "In a few days, Lao Wu will be discharged back to Chang'an. At that time, he will be guilty of asking again. I wonder what kind of concern is Gan'er about this? If your father asks, what should you answer?"

"Sin is not to be forgiven, and it is done according to the law." Li Chengqian is still a little worried about Lao Quan's death. Now that he has seized the opportunity, he will of course not let it go.

"Don't be fooled!" He whispered, and Empress Changsun glared at Li Chengqian lightly and said, "No matter what, one is your mother and the other is your brother. Even if they have really committed any great sins, everyone in the world can poke at them. You, the prince of your son and brother, cannot say such words."

"Have you ever thought that if you say such words, what will the people in the world look at you? What will the ministers look at you? What will your father and emperor look at you?"

"Destroy relatives for justice? Humph," Empress Changsun sneered and said, "At that time, I'm afraid I'll be cold-blooded and ruthless, and my relatives will be more unrecognizable."

"The Queen Mother is right, but the Queen Mother, the Wu Lao and Yin Fei are indeed..."

"What sin did they commit? The law of the Tang Dynasty stood there, and the ministers in the court stood there. No one could escape what they should have. No one dared to add to them on their own. There was no need for you, the crown prince, to worry about it."

"My mother said, my son has received the teachings." Hearing the hidden meaning of Queen Changsun's words, Li Chengqian replied softly: "In the court tomorrow, my son will keep silent."

"What if your father asked you?"

"My son will plead with his father and be willing to ask him to be gentle."

"Well," I finally got enlightened. Empress Changsun finally had a smile on her face. She looked at Li Chengqian with satisfaction and said, "Okay, let's get here today. I'm a little tired. Qian'er will retreat first. After returning, remember to treat the Crown Princess well and don't have an accident like today."

"Yes, Mother, my son knows, I will take my leave." Li Chengqian stood up and bowed to Empress Changsun, then turned around and retreated slowly and walked towards the Lizheng Hall.

"Also," as Li Chengqian walked to the entrance of the hall, Empress Changsun couldn't help but say again: "If you don't want it in your heart, you have to be the one who treats others in the face. The prince wants to protect it is not just Yin Fei and King Qi."

"My son understands, thank you for your mother's teachings!" Hearing this, Li Chengqian paused. The last sentence was afraid that the mother's mother's words were the most important words she said today. Li Chengqian seemed to have some understanding in his heart, and he turned respectfully and bent down to salute Empress Changsun, and then he slowly retreated.

"Oh, I hope he really understands it." As she watched Li Chengqian step out of the hall, Empress Changsun couldn't help but sigh again. For this child, she has been worried a lot over the past few decades, hoping that he would really take that step in the end.

"Qi reported to the Empress, there is a manager from General Luo's mansion outside the hall, and Luo Qi asked for a meeting." While thinking, the little eunuch guarding the door outside the hall trotted into the hall to report.

"Roqi?" After a moment of thinking, Empress Changsun guessed that Roqi's purpose was coming here. Sister Qi must be thinking of her daughter in the mansion, so she came to invite Chuchu back to the mansion with Roqi.
