Eight hundred and thirty seventh chapter defense
"Do you really want peace in your heart forever?"
Li Chengqian whispered in his heart, sat quietly for a while, and then buried his head in the memorial in front of him.
Empress Changsun took Gao Yang for a walk in front of the Tai Chi Palace, and while walking, she listened to Gao Yang telling what she had learned over the days.
Looking up at the East Palace not far away, Empress Changsun asked the palace maid who was accompanying her, "Have Chengqian been in the East Palace for a while?"
The palace maid whispered: "When I go back to the queen, His Highness the Crown Prince has been in the East Palace these days, living in seclusion, and has been dealing with affairs in the East Palace except for the morning court."
Empress Changsun said discouragedly: "There are so many troublesome things in the five surnames, so it must be difficult for Cheng Qian to handle."
The palace maid lowered her head and didn't say anything again.
Gao Yang looked up and said, "My mother, have you listened to your daughter again?"
Empress Changsun smiled, touched Gao Yang's hair bun and said, "Do you just don't want to marry Fang Yiai?"
Gao Yang turned his head and said, "I don't want to marry him."
Despite Gao Yang's words, Empress Changsun smiled helplessly.
Gao Yang is still young and is only fourteen years old. In theory, he is just talking about marriage now.
The marriage between the princess and princes in the court has always been his master of the current rule.
There seemed to be a tacit understanding between Li Shimin and the civil and military ministers in the court.
The eldest sons of civil and military ministers in the court arranged their own marriages, while most of their second sons married princesses.
It not only maintains a distance, but also has a certain relationship with the royal family.
Under this tacit understanding, Gao Yang's future husband will be the same.
Li Shimin thought at the beginning that Fang Xuanling's second son Fang Yiai.
Queen Changsun said: "Actually, the second child of the Fang family is not bad. My mother has seen it for you and she is a good child."
Gao Yang still raised his chin and turned his head and said, "My daughter just doesn't like it!"
Empress Changsun didn't say much when she got used to Gao Yang's temperament. She looked at the East Palace and nodded secretly, "It seems that Cheng Qian has become much more sensible."
Holding Gao Yang's hand, Empress Changsun was still walking in the palace.
In Qianyuan Palace, Li Shimin was drinking with Changsun Wuji.
Li Shimin held the wine bottle and said, "In the past two years, I have neglected the Changsun family."
Changsun Wuji held the wine bowl and said, "Your Majesty, don't say this, I am willing to be fooled by Your Majesty."
Li Shimin smiled and said, "Okay, your son has now joined the Ministry of Personnel. In the future, he may be able to control the promotion of officials all over the world."
Hearing this, Changsun Wuji immediately knelt on the ground and said, "The dog son is incompetent, I hope Your Majesty will not blame him."
Li Shimin was a little drunk, but his eyes were still clear. He stared at Changsun Wuji and said, "How do you think I want to recover Li Zheng?"
Changsun Wuji lowered his head and remained silent for a while.
Seeing that Changsun Wuji was not talking, Li Shimin said, "Let me talk, I will listen."
"Yes." Changsun Wuji said with a polite politeness: "I think if Your Majesty can conquer Li Zheng, if you cannot, kill him!"
Putting down the wine bottle in his hand, Li Shimin stood up and said, "Why kill him?"
Gu/span> Changsun Wuji said loudly: "Now Your Majesty can suppress Li Zheng. What can you do later? Who will suppress Li Zheng? Your Majesty should be very clear about what Li Zheng is holding."
Changsun Wuji also had cold sweat in his hand when he said this, and looked at Li Shimin with an outskirt of eyes.
Li Shimin whispered: "How do you know that the thing is in Li Zheng's hands, not in my hands."
"My..." Changsun Wuji's face turned pale, as if His Majesty had never said that thing was in His Majesty's hands, and Li Zheng had never said that he had that kind of thing. All of this was the news he bought from the Zhenxi Army. All of this was related to Li Zheng's disciple Daniu.
Li Shimin walked up to Changsun Wuji, looked at him kneeling on the ground and said, "I actually trust you very much, but I don't like anyone to do anything."
Changsun Wuji sweated coldly and fell on the ground and said, "I know my crime!"
Li Shimin sneered and said, "Well, I don't blame you. If you hadn't done so many things, I wouldn't have been on this throne."
Changsun Wuji hurriedly said, "Your Majesty! My heartfelt words are that Li Zheng is really too young. Now Li Zheng is in his early twenties. Who knows what will happen to him who surrenders like this in the future? I have to be careful, Your Majesty!"
Changsun Wuji was very excited to say something, and he almost kowtowed in front of Li Shimin.
Li Shimin squatted down and looked at his expression and said, "Of course I understand what you said. It's hard to say what Li Zheng will do in the future, but what about you in the future? How many people in the court are your disciples of Changsun Wuji? Not to mention whether Li Zheng can suppress him in the future, even if it is you, look at Chengqian now, can he suppress you, the national uncle?"
"I can defend against Li Zheng, can I defend against you?"
The voice of Li Shimin's words echoed in the hall.
Changsun Wuji knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move.
"I think about your and my friendship at the beginning. I will not pursue your small actions in the court. The imperial examination is about to be. I don't want this imperial examination to become an opportunity for you to add wings. Do you understand what I mean? Why are you so anxious to win over talents from all over the country? Do you really think I am blind?"
After saying that, Li Shimin waved his sleeves and said, "You know what to do, so please step back."
Changsun Wuji bowed repeatedly and stood up and left.
It was not until after walking out of the palace that Changsun Wuji felt the chill on his back and the cold sweat was covered in cold sweat.
Two days later in Jingyang, Li Zheng was humming a small song and was modifying his bicycle.
Xu Jingzong came to Li Zheng and said, "What are you doing in Chang'an Order?"
Li Zheng was already tinkering with his hands and feet and said, "Tieda's craftsmanship has improved a little more, and the iron chain is getting better and better."
Xu Jingzong nodded at the oily chains without understanding.
Li Zheng said on the gear: "Do you know? The more the fit the iron chain and the gear, the better the efficiency, reducing power consumption. The pedal drives the gear, the gear drives the iron chain, and the iron chain drives the gears behind, and the wheels can rotate faster."
Xu Jingzong nodded as if he was ignorant, "Chang'an Order is indeed a god."
Li Zheng sighed: "Stop flattery, it's all about physics knowledge, and you won't understand it even if you say it."
Xu Jingzong nodded repeatedly, "Chang'an Order said yes."
Li Zheng washed his hands and stood up and said, "Tell me, what's the matter."
Xu Jingzong whispered: "Changsun Chong is confined."
"Stayed? What does it have to do with me?"
"I don't know anything about Chang'an Order." Xu Jingzong put his hands in his sleeves and said, "Now the imperial examination is imminent, Changsun Chong then made friends with talents everywhere in Chang'an City. Many scholars know that he is the son of the current national uncle and want to curry favor with him. More importantly, Changsun Chong is still in the Ministry of Personnel."
