Chapter 423
This night, many people have not fallen asleep.
The Supreme Emperor Li Yuan did not sleep. The one who slept beside him was a little concubine he just accepted last month. He was only sixteen years old and was already asleep at this time. He gently stroked the soft satin-like skin of the girl in his arms, and was filled with emotion.
Sometimes, people's emotional changes only require an opportunity. In the past few years, Li Shimin's little self has welcomed him, sooner or later, and welcomed him at any banquet. He racked his brains to make him happy. In fact, it has gradually accumulated and settled in his heart until today...
The ones who once humiliated him and were now his prisoners. In order to smile, they wrote poems and danced for him. Think about it carefully, it was enough. After all, the past has passed, and Shimin is also his flesh and blood. Should he bring that resentment to the coffin?
"Built, Yuanji..."
Li Yuan sighed softly, hugged the young body that was still young and naive, curled up in his cat's arms, and slowly closed his eyes.
At this moment, Li Shimin was not asleep yet.
A small lamp was left in front of the tent, and the light shone into the tent. Li Shimin closed his eyes, but tossed and turned like a pancake for several times.
Finally, Empress Changsun couldn't help it, laughed and held his hand.
"Your Majesty is still very happy today."
Li Shimin opened his eyes and his wife was looking at him with a smile.
Li Shimin nodded slightly and said, "Well, my father finally let go of his grudges. You don't know that over the past few years, my heart has always been gripping, and it has not been until today that I have truly let go."
As the emperor, Li Shimin had countless concubines, including Empress Xiao of the Sui Dynasty, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's pretty and beautiful concubines, all of which were included in the palace by him and were very favored. However, this kind of favor only originated from lust. Only Changsun Wugui and this queen were the object of his heart.
"Father and son after all..."
Empress Changsun comforted his palm and gently stroked him: "Don't think so much. Over the years, as a monarch, you have been prosperous and sleeping all night and governing the country, which has made the Tang Dynasty flourish. You are a good emperor, and there will be a fair evaluation in the world and future generations."
Queen Changsun stretched out her soft palm, gently stroked his cheek, and said softly: "My husband will be the emperor of the ages. Let's rest. I've been busy for a day today, and I'll still have to hunt with my father tomorrow."
Li Shimin nodded, held his wife's tenderness, and let out another long breath, as if he had spit out a turbid breath that had been pressing between his chest for many years.
At this time, the lights were still in the tent of King Li Tai of Wei.
Li Tai, a little fat man, was dressed neatly and paced back and forth in the room. He was still young and had no time to cultivate Qi, and his expression seemed quite impatient.
"Sir, I really didn't expect that the prince would do such a move! The spiritual platform is to see where the will of heaven is! It's not as simple as cultivating a platform. The son of the emperor, the son of heaven, the son of heaven, and inquired about the will of heaven. This spiritual platform is where the son of heaven communicates with the son of heaven. Isn't it to tell the whole world that the prince is the crown prince?"
Li Tai was extremely angry, no wonder he was anxious. He was the prince, so he had an innate advantage over him. Moreover, although he was extremely favored by his father, his ministers did not like him.
What kind of assistant ministers do the crown prince have? King Li Yuanchang of Han, general Hou Junji, Li Anyan, Du He (son of Prime Minister Du Ruhui), and Zhao Jie (son of Princess Changguang), these are confidants. The ministers in the court also recognized him as the crown prince because he was the eldest son.
And what about him, Li Tai? There was only one teacher assigned by the emperor, Wang Gui, the Minister of Rites, and Liu Yan, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites. Besides... there were no one else. Suli usually had a close relationship with Fang Yiai, King of Wu Li Ke, Xue Wanche, Chai Lingwu and others, but now it is not a question of being a confidant.
By the way, there is also an emperor uncle, King Jing Li Yuanjing, who is a lustful king who is reincarnated by the five gods. After returning to Beijing, he suddenly became a Buddhist king. He has made friends with either a priest or a monk. He is talking about pills and meditation, which is also a side of the article, so the two are now quite close.
But at this moment, only Wang Shangshu was able to call for discussion. Even Liu Shi was not among the ranks of accompanying the horse and hunting because of his low official position.
Wang Shangshu nodded and said, "Your Highness, the crown prince is the crown prince of the country, there is no doubt. It is natural for the ministers to make some speculation and welcome the crown prince. Don't be impatient. Now it seems that the emperor should allow the highness to build a literary museum and attract talents from all over the world, which has made the crown prince feel uneasy. This shows that even if he is a legitimate crown prince, he dare not ignore it."
Li Tai said with a slight look, but he said frustrated: "But the construction of the spirit platform has fallen on his head? Alas, my father just gave me a mansion in Yankangfang. Cen Wenben wrote a letter to impeach me, saying that I was building the mansion, which was a waste of money, and I spent all my money in the literature museum! It was so difficult."
Wang Shangshu laughed and said, "But the emperor ignored this matter after all. Although he praised him for his loyalty to the court, he then gave the Furong Garden, which was located thirty hectares and seventeen miles acres of residence, to you. Your Highness, you still remember that Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others were not respectful to Your Highness, so the emperor called them to the palace and was furious."
Li Tai Zhanyan said: "Father really loves me!"
Wang Shangshu said: "That's it. The emperor is prosperous in spring and autumn. As long as the emperor's holy relatives remain unchanged, the future will last longer. What should we be anxious about?"
Li Tai nodded slowly.
Shangshu Wang said again: "The crown prince is the crown prince of the country, who doesn't know? Now that he has been fighting for the mission to supervise the construction of the Lingtai, he is just to show the world again that he is the crown prince!"
Shangshu Wang smiled faintly and said to Li Tai: "Your Highness, you are not like that. If the Literature Museum is completed, your Highness can attract talents from all over the world and give him an official position. This is a good sycamore tree, which attracts golden phoenixes. In time, one will grow and the other will grow, haha..."
When Li Tai heard this, he suddenly became enlightened and said, "Yes! The sir is right! The king ignored him. He built his spiritual platform, and I built my Hongwen Pavilion. Humph! His spiritual platform was built and he still returned to his Eastern Palace. I can attract talents from all over the world and establish merits."
Shangshu Wang nodded in praise: "Your Highness thinks this way. Since that's the case, I won't bother you. Your Highness will accompany the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor tomorrow morning..."
As soon as he said this, a shrill horn sounded outside the tent: "Woo~~~~~"
Wang Shangshu was a civil servant. He was confused about the meaning of the horn sound. He was stunned and said, "What happened?"
Li Tai likes literary but not martial arts. He occasionally goes out to the city for a walk and hunting, mainly because he drinks and writes poems, and does elegant things, so he doesn't understand. The two of them are discussing such a big thing, and they feel guilty, so they immediately change their colors and rush out.
At this time, because the sound of the horn sounded, not only the soldiers patrolling the night took action, but the soldiers who were waiting for the wings on the outside also stood up. Those who knew the meaning of the horn also drew their swords and held swords and rushed out of the tent.
"Woo~~Woo~~~~"
Li Yu held up his horn and stood at the tent, blowing loudly without any scriptures.
In the past few days of Kushusi, I have never learned any musical theory under the assault training, but some simple common sense and some simple instruments can make a sound.
He is also a martial arts practitioner, with a long breath and the horn is very swaying.
Several armored men in the Tun Guards rushed to the front of Li Yu, raised their torches and took a photo. A tall warrior inside was startled and rushed to take two steps, shouting: "Little Langjun, what's wrong with you?"
I saw Li Yu bleeding from his nose and covered his face, which seemed very scary.
When Li Yu saw that everyone was being slapped by him, he then took the horn and wiped the blood on his face with his hand, saying, "There are two beasts. In the darkness, I have never seen what it is. Now I don't know where to escape!"
The general next to him was suspicious, raised the torch and took a photo, and said suspiciously: "Beast? Why are you injured on your nose..."
Li Yu hurriedly approached two steps and lowered his voice: "General, is he confused, does Your Majesty like to Zhang Yang to have any assassin?"
The general said "ah" and said, "So?"
Li Yu said, "To be honest, two tall men in night clothes came into the camp. They were about to leave the tent, but they hit him directly, and were hit by a man with a punch. I was so alert that I rolled and crawled back to the tent, grabbed the horn and blew it. The two assassins saw that the opportunity was not good, and had already sneaked into the night and escaped."
Tie Wuhuan heard clearly and said to the general: "General Wang, let's search the entire camp immediately, and only said that it was a wild beast invading. If there were assassins, there would be nowhere to hide, and it would not be too alarmed, which would disturb the emperor's rest. Tomorrow morning, report the details."
The general was overjoyed when he heard this. He was originally responsible for the warning tonight. Whether it was an assassin or a beast infiltrated, it was his negligence. However, even if he was punished now, his superiors saw that he knew the opportunity and might be promoted soon.
But, if you do this, Li Yu has to give in.
He subconsciously looked at Li Yu. Li Yu understood and nodded, "General's plan is very wonderful!"
The general immediately felt relieved and patted Li Yu on the shoulder: "Do you know Wuhuan? Okay, I will ask Wuhuan to invite you to have a drink together! A certain Zuo Yi Central Army General Wang Chao, you friend, Wang has made a deal!"
After Wang Chao finished his instructions, he turned around and left, pulled his sword out of the sheath, shouting: "There are beasts that sneak into the camp, strengthen their vigilance, and search everywhere!"
Tie Wuhuan quickly explained to Li Yu: "Leave the rest to us, and the little husband will return to the tent and get hurt."
Seeing that they were walking away with a torch, Li Yu covered his nose: "That girl is so ruthless. She actually beat her up!"
At this time, he had returned to Princess Gaoyang and stood behind her as if nothing had happened. Yang Qianye, who was flowing everywhere in the camp, remembered the scene just now, and could not tell whether he was angry or funny.
That bastard didn't dodge or dodge. Yang Qianye knew his ability and expected that he would be able to dodge, but he stood there blankly. It was too late to close his fist at this time, and he only had time to retract a little bit of force, but he almost hit his nose in the face.
But the bastard's next move was almost a scoundrel.
There were piles of musical instruments in his tent. He actually pulled out a horn and threatened her with blood on his face: "If you have the ability, kill me. If you don't do it, I'll blow it!"
Yang Qianye said blankly: "What are you doing when you blow the horn?"
Li Yu said: "As soon as the trumpet sounds, everyone comes. Your identity is revealed and you will die without a place to bury me. Listen to my good advice, go back immediately, hide it from today, and wait for an opportunity to leave tomorrow."
"You bastard! You..."
"I'll blow with dozens of numbers! Ten, nine, eight, seven..."
Could it be that she really killed him? Not to mention that she has no weapons in her hands at this moment, even if she has one, can she be kind to revenge? Even if she is kind to revenge, Yang Qianye didn't believe that this little slut was willing to die at that time. In desperation, she had to jump away.
At this moment, the entire camp is full of fire. After tonight, the emperor's guard will definitely be more strict tomorrow. Do I still have a chance to start?
Thinking of this, Yang Qianye sighed helplessly, raised his face, looked at the stars in the sky, and suddenly saw a meteor suddenly flashing through the night sky. Yang Qianye quickly made a wish: "When I assassinate the emperor again, God bless me to leave this broom..."
