Chapter 139: The Emperor's Heart is Unpredictable(2/2)
Because he knew very well that once he left here, he would never be able to come back in the future. He had once dreamed of competing with the prince and even becoming the new prince of the Tang Dynasty!
But now it seems that this is just a moon in the water. My father is already desperate for himself. After losing his father's spoiling, he is just a mere prince, and that's all forever.
He never thought that not long ago, he was a wise king praised by people, but now... he is about to leave Chang'an and has no connection with this magnificent Jingzhao of the Tang Dynasty.
He was unwilling to give up, so he immediately shed tears and said, "Father, the queen, and the queen, are sons, hope to stay in Chang'an and serve her mother."
In fact, when Li Shimin asked Li Tai to be a vassal, everyone was shocked.
Li Chengqian and Chen Zhengtai have worn a pair of pants. In their eyes, they are no longer qualified princes. Many people still put their hopes on Li Tai, but Li Tai... is a vassal, which means that many people will be disappointed.
When Li Shimin heard that Li Tai wanted to serve his mother, he refused to leave, but he only smiled faintly: "Don't worry, there are people around your mother who are taken care of, so go and have a good time. Your mother has always told me that since you have been crowned King of Yue and stayed in Jingzhao for a long time, it will be contrary to etiquette and law. After you go to Yangzhou, your mother will be relieved."
In fact, Li Shimin was not wrong. Empress Changsun really didn’t want Li Tai to stay in Chang'an!
Empress Changsun is a man who is very wise. Although she knows that the palms and backs of her hands are flesh, she also knows that the prince and Li Tai are in Chang'an, which will sooner or later cause discord among brothers!
She even advised Li Shimin many times, but Li Shimin obviously had other thoughts before and kept laughing at it.
But now...
After hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Tai's body trembled.
When he said this, he knew that his father had been completely disappointed with him.
For a moment, Li Tai felt sad from his heart, and shed tears. He fell to the ground and said earnestly: "Father...Father...My son knows his mistake, but I dare not, but I..."
Li Shimin turned around and ignored Li Tai.
The ministers were shocked. They knew very well that His Majesty's mercy was not only for their own flesh and blood, but also for them.
Li Shimin's eyes slowly wandered around them.
Wei Xuanzhen wanted to make trouble, but now... she doesn't have any courage? His heart was bleeding, but now she was as quiet as a quail, with only lowered her head and did not dare to touch His Majesty's gaze.
The others were actually in a dead silence.
Today... no one seems to be admonishing.
Li Shimin said in a plain tone: "Is there anything else I want to say in the family of Zhuqing?"
“…”
Obviously, everyone is good at judging the situation, and no one dares to speak at this time!
Li Shimin's lips curled up slightly, and a little smile appeared: "I am doing good and opening up the road to speech, hoping that my road to speech will not be blocked, so I did something ridiculous. This is the lesson of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui. I should be careful and be wary of it!"
After a pause, Li Shimin continued: "I have said so much, I really hope you can say a few words, but since you have no objections, it is obvious... the Chen family's copper refining method can refine so many copper ingots, which is not a bad thing. In this way, I feel relieved. Chen Zhengtai..."
Chen Zhengtai actually felt that from beginning to end, Li Shimin's words just made him feel a sense of depression!
Even though Li Shimin did not target him, but praised him very much, it still made Chen Zhengtai feel as if a mountain was pressing down, which made Chen Zhengtai feel a little timid!
Chen Zhengtai immediately said: "The student is here."
Li Shimin said solemnly: "This copper ingot needs to be refined more. This workshop has made great contributions. I have also heard that in order to refine copper, you have arranged all the brothers and clan members of your Chen family here, right?"
Chen Zhengtai said: "Yes."
"The Chen family is full of loyal and righteous people." Li Shimin sighed, with an admiration in his eyes.
Chen Zhengtai immediately said, "My teacher is right. Our Chen family can go through fire and water for our mentors, and they will never refuse. Not to mention copper smelting, even if the teacher says, they will teach them all to jump into the blast furnace. The students think that they will never frown."
"Is that true?" Li Shimin looked at Chen Zhengtai with interest.
