Chapter 163: presumptuousness

Chapter 163 Presumptuous speculation on the law of the holy meaning should be punished

It was supposed to be good for four rounds, but Li Yuan's interest remained undiminished. In the end, he forced Qin Lang and the others to fight for eight rounds, almost a day in Liangyi Hall.

Even lunch was the imperial meal in Liangyi Hall, and after eating, Li Yuan dragged him to continue beating him.

Li Yuan laughs when he wins, scolds when he loses, makes a loud noise when he draws his cards, and throws the cards angrily after lighting the cannon, just like an old child, but whether it is Empress Changsun or Qin Lang, they just smile Accompanying him, Cheng Chumo acted as a **** throughout the whole process, without any sense of presence.

Cheng Qian and Qing Que watched it for a while, but quickly learned it. Qing Que even became a little spy, and repeatedly came to peek at Qin Lang's cards to report to Li Yuan. Li Yuan also enjoyed it, but Cheng Qian was quite loyal. Just sit behind Li Yuan honestly, silently count cards for Li Yuan, and remind Li Yuan.

After Li Yuan had two more staff officers, he fired fewer cannons, but also less self-touching times.

After the eight circles, Li Yuan lost all his chips again today.

Today's biggest winner is still Qin Lang, one eats three.

The Supreme Emperor lost more than 800 yuan, Empress Changsun and Cheng Chumo lost more than 100 yuan each, and Qin Lang earned more than 1,000 gold Kaiyuan alone.

Although Li Yuan cursed and cursed when firing the cannon, he was very happy when he gave the money. He summoned his servant Zhao Yong and asked him to fetch the gold.

The golden Kaiyuan gold coins were grabbed by Li Yuan and thrown onto the table, "That's it for today, next time, come and fight with me next time when I have time, I will definitely win it back next time."

Li Yuan also grabbed a few handfuls of gold Kaiyuan for each of his grandchildren, and the three little guys were all smiles.

Before leaving, Li Yuan called Qin Lang to him.

"I heard that your kid is now a scholar of Chongxian Hall? When I first heard about it, I thought Erlang played the piano indiscriminately. What qualifications do you have to be a scholar of Chongxian Hall? But I heard this morning that you tied a blue sparrow in Chongxue Hall Xun Chengqian, and let them eat the food that the disaster victims ate, and trained these kids one by one, I think Erlang accidentally chose the right person."

"The minister was just driven away from the shelves, and he was really just playing the piano indiscriminately."

"Perhaps, but a scholar of the Chongxian Hall like you is much better than that immortal Li Gang. Back then, I chose Li Gang as Dalang's teacher. I thought he was upright and honest, and I thought he was an upright person. But thinking about it now, at that time I was wrong, he was honest and honest, but it was because of these upright and pedantic people that Da Lang had many of his subordinates, so he lost his life in the end. If Da Lang had more Du Yan, Fang Xuanling, and Changsun Wuji in his subordinates Such a ruthless person, he must be the winner. You are a good little bastard, young and aggressive, uneducated, and unreasonable in doing things. Prince Chengqian is still young, and he will not be short of Li Gang. Upright ministers, but what is most lacking is people like you, but I hope you can teach Chengqian well, so that my prince of the Tang Dynasty can secure the position of crown prince."

Li Yuan's words came from the bottom of his heart.

"To be honest, Erlang's method of withdrawing the Turks this time is really beyond my expectation. I thought that he sent the Turks to the city of Chang'an to fight the Turks in a decisive battle under the city of Chang'an. I also believed that even if he could win, it would be a miserable victory The land and society of the Tang Dynasty will be shaken because of this, and the world will be in chaos again."

"Unexpectedly, he retreated the Turkic army without a single soldier. He was able to ride the Linwei Bridge nine times and retreated the enemy with words. He did not choose to use force to win the battle as in the past. It is surprising, and the result is even more surprising. He once said that he would let me be his witness, and now I have indeed witnessed his first victory, and I am very pleased. You tell Erlang, I am proud of him."

Li Yuan finally made a request, hoping to convey it to Li Shimin through Qin Lang.

"The Tang Dynasty has already been handed over to Erlang. Now that I have retired to be the Supreme Emperor, I don't have any ideas. I just want to see those old guys occasionally, play chess, cards, play the piano and drink with them. If Erlang If you don't let them enter the palace anymore, then I will really be too lonely."

Qin Lang looked at the wrinkled Li Yuan, "Your Majesty has worked hard for half his life, why not just enjoy the blessings now, with three thousand beauties in the harem, and the six palaces of women and girls competing in beauty."

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, then let Erlang choose some beautiful beauties for me. I can choose all kinds of beauties, such as Persian big-breasted orchids in the Western Regions, blond haired and blue-eyed bearded women, Silla maids, Turkic women, Goguryeo Girl, Kunlun girl, etc."

Qin Lang didn't expect Li Yuan to be quite open-minded, playing so fiercely all of a sudden.

Is this for stamp collecting?

"The Supreme Emperor, won't there be countless mixed blood princes in the harem?"

Li Yuan said, "Hua and Yi have been debated for thousands of years, but blood lineage has never been the distinguishing condition for Hua and Yi. Otherwise, if this is really the case, then the Tang Dynasty established by me, Li Yuan, should be regarded as the Xianbei Tang Dynasty, just like the Tuoba Dynasty in the Northern Wei Dynasty .”

"What the Supreme Emperor taught is."

When Qin Lang sent Empress Changsun and the crown prince back to the East Palace, he went to see Li Shimin and told Li Yuan what he had said.

"The Emperor is so old, why do you still think of women?"

Qin Lang said, "People have to have a direction in life, whether it's alcohol, wealth or power, they have to have a direction and goal to work hard for, otherwise they will be confused."

As for Li Yuan wanting Li Shimin to let go of the palace ban and let Pei Ji and others enter the palace to accompany him, Li Shimin was still worried. He was afraid that, as Changsun Wuji and others said, Li Yuan would take the opportunity to plan something with these veterans.

"Huailiang, since the fourth day of June, this old bastard, Pei Ji, I have treated him well and granted him the title of Sikong. One of his sons is the son of the Duke of Wei, the other is the Duke of Hedong County, one of his daughters is the concubine, and the other is the concubine. And Princess Chang, this kind of favor, but he still refuses to abdicate to the virtuous, and now he always dictates in the court, and even opposes and obstructs the policies of me and the prime ministers participating in politics."

The more Li Shimin talked, the more angry he became, "I want to drive this old thing out of Chang'an, and you can lead the town governor to investigate Pei Ji for me."

Qin Lang understood in his heart that this so-called thorough investigation is actually to get Pei Ji involved. If there is a problem, he must find out the problem, and if there is no problem, he must also investigate. Of course, if an important minister like Pei Ji really wants to investigate, he must Hundreds of questions can be found.

"Your Majesty, should we investigate now? Pei Sikong is the number one hero of martial arts, and the old buddy of the Supreme Emperor."

"That's why I want to investigate him. I can't stand this old guy's repeated meddling in politics."

Li Shimin gave Pei Ji a chance to withdraw with dignity, but now this guy is no longer the prime minister, but he has the title of Sikong and is still involved in politics, especially he is very influential in Shangshu Province, with many old ministries, plus Li Shimin often went in and out of the Tai Chi Palace to meet the Supreme Emperor, which Li Shimin couldn't tolerate.

He can't tolerate a prime minister who is no longer a prime minister, and he still dictates to the new dynasty.

"Your Majesty, the Chongxian Hall has just started, and I'm afraid I won't be able to separate myself."

Li Shimin said, "There are 18 direct bachelors teaching in the Chongxian Hall every day. What do you have to do? When you are not in the hall every day, Chu Suiliang will be the agent. Besides, if you are asked to handle this case, he will only let him take the lead." , The specific affairs will naturally be handled by the people under the Zhenfu Department." Li Shimin still wanted to hand over this case to his confidant Qin Lang, but he was not at ease handing it over to others.

"Your Majesty, please show me where to start?" Qin Lang saw that there was nothing to push, so he had no choice but to accept it.

Li Shimin spit out three words, "Liu Wenjing!"

It seems that Li Shimin really came prepared, he wanted to fight Pei Ji for a long time, and he even chose the direction of attack.

Liu Wenjing, this was one of Li Yuan's right-hand men at the beginning of the army, and Pei Ji was the founding prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, but Liu Wenjing was from Li Shimin, and he was also pro-Turkic. Later, when Liu Wenjing and Pei Ji were fighting for the throne, Li Yuan found an opportunity to accuse Liu Wenjing of treason, and then killed him. Although he once gave Liu Wenjing a gold medal to avoid two deaths, he was killed if he could not avoid death. .

When Liu Wenjing was killed back then, it was not because he was competing with Pei Ji for the throne, but because Li Shimin's power was developing too fast at that time, which had already threatened the crown prince's position, and even somewhat shaken Li Yuan's prestige, so Li Yuan killed Liu Wenjing decisively, which was regarded as giving Li Shimin a cruel warning, and cut off an important liaison between him and the Turks.

Regarding Liu Wenjing's death, Li Shimin has always been brooding about it.

Until today, he did not say Liu Wenjing's name, no doubt to vindicate Liu Wenjing. As for Liu Wenjing's murder case, Pei Ji was the most involved. As long as the case is rehabilitated, Pei Ji will be implicated in it. At that time, it will be justified to find out Pei Ji's problems and settle the case on the grounds of overturning the case.

Qin Qiong tried every means last time to get Qin Lang out of the Zhenfu Department, but now it seems that Qin Qiong's plan has failed, and Li Shimin will not let Qin Lang, a useful confidant, go easily. Qin Lang single-handedly established the Zhen Fu Division for him, and did several important things for him, Li Shimin knew it very well.

The son of a confidant general in the Qin Palace, and also his own son-in-law, young, aggressive and resourceful, who is the suitable person for him?

"If this is done, I will reward you with a hundred hectares of fertile land." Li Shimin promised.

Qin Lang thought in his heart, you are easy to calculate. As the number one hero of martial arts, Pei Ji is Li Yuan's old buddy, not to mention that he is from a famous family, the land rewarded by Li Yuan alone is no less than 2000 hectares, and there are countless money and silk slaves.

Based on the poor tax revenue of the current imperial court, Pei Ji's family property is really very attractive.

Bring Pei Ji down, and give Qin Lang a hundred hectares out of it. Although it is not a drop in the bucket, it is only one or two in a hundred.

The big head must still fall into Li Shimin's hands.

"The minister recommends to His Majesty Xu Changshi to take over the post of Zhenfu Sicheng. Xu Changshi works hard and is very diligent and loyal."

Li Shimin snorted, "Ma Zhou in your governor's department is a great talent, and I want to use it more. But Xu Jingzong, although he is talented, he likes to speculate on the holy will and cater to him, which is disrespectful."

Qin Lang finally understood that a man like Xu Jingzong, who was so eager for fame and fame, would be demoted soon after the Xuanwumen Incident. Li Shimin made it very clear, he likes to speculate on the king's heart. This is of course a great taboo for the emperor. As a courtier, you should do your part, say what you say, and do what you say. As a result, you have to guess the emperor's thoughts and thoughts in everything, and cater to everything. Emperor, then you are disrespectful, how can you guess what the emperor is thinking?

Li Shimin is not the kind of emperor Yang Guang likes to cater to, so after he discovered Xu Jingzong's behavior, he immediately relegated him to the Zhenfu Department as a long history, just to kill chickens for monkeys to see.

Violating such a big taboo, it seems that Lao Xu is on the blacklist, and it may be difficult to be reused again. Originally, he wanted to hand over the Zhenfusi to him so that he could escape, but it seemed that he was wrong.

"I know you're smart, but I hope you don't make the same mistakes as Xu Jingzong. How can the heart of a king be conjectures, let alone flattery, and do your own thing well, understand?" Li Shimin stared at Qin Lang and reminded him.

"Please remember!"
