The word "side by side" king of the Tang Dynasty

Five o'clock in the morning.

The moon is sparse and the sky is slightly bright.

On the branches, birds have risen early to look for food.

The farmer's rooster also began to crow.

The white dew exudes little bits of light under the reflection of the stars.

The breeze blew and dewdrops fell from the leaves.

Hundreds of officials went to court with the sound of drums as their orders.

When the drums that symbolized the arrival of the fifth watch sounded, the important officials in the court began to file in and poured into the Tai Chi Hall.

In ancient times, emperors and important ministers had to go to court every day, so they were accustomed to getting up early.

On the contrary, those low-level officials of the sixth rank can sleep very late.

Because these officials only go to court unless they meet with big dynasties such as the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, or when the emperor summons them for something.

Li Yuan sat on the dragon chair. After the civil and military officials saluted, today's morning court officially began.

In the ranks of civil servants, Li Shimin ranked first as Shangshu Ling and King of Qin, followed by Gao Shilian.

In the ranks of military attaches, Li Changqing stood guard. He is the general of Tiance, and his status is higher than that of the prince and the three princes.

Now that Prince Li Jiancheng has been deposed, Li Changqing is the number two figure in the Tang Empire.

Except for Li Yuan, everyone else's status is below him.

Even if Li Shimin saw him, he still needed to salute according to etiquette.

The Minister of Rites stood up from the ranks of civil servants and said:"Your Majesty, the position of the crown prince is vacant now, and the country is worried. Your Majesty, please appoint a new crown prince as soon as possible."

After the words fell, everyone in the court, civil and military, looked at Li Shimin.

There is no doubt that he is the only one who is qualified to be the prince now.

Li Yuan pondered for a moment, glanced at Li Shimin, who was standing upright with his eyes and nose in mind, and said:"The establishment of a prince is an important matter for the country and cannot be rushed."

Although he had been prepared in his heart, when he heard with his own ears that Li Yuan had postponed the establishment of a prince, Prince, Li Shimin was still disappointed in his heart, but he always had a friendly smile on his face.

However, the civil and military officials were very puzzled by Li Yuan's move. Li Shimin was very good, so why not make him the prince?

The minister of the Ministry of Rites added:"I believe that a country cannot be without a king for a day, nor can it be without a crown prince. The crown prince is related to the stability of the country and is a major matter for the country. The first emperor did not make his eldest son Fusu the crown prince, which led to Zhao Gao and Hu Hai usurping power. The second Qin Dynasty Death in this world is a lesson learned from the past."

Li Yuan's face darkened, with a hint of anger in his eyes.

Seeing this, Gao Shilian hurriedly stepped forward and said:"Your Majesty, there have been reports from the border recently, and the aliens have become more and more rampant. There are Turks in the north who are constantly harassing our border with the Tang Dynasty, and there are Tubo in the west. I would like to ask your Majesty to send a large army to support the border. Resist the disasters of aliens."

As the first counselor under Li Yuan, Gao Shilian is not only good at making decisions, but also has excellent ability to observe words and emotions.

Gao Shilian changed the topic, and Li Yuan's expression softened obviously.

Said:"The Turkic wolf has repeatedly invaded our borders with the Tang Dynasty. He will bring millions of troops to destroy his country. However, the civil war in China has just ended. The people of the Tang Dynasty are in ruins and are in ruins. They still need time to recuperate.

Yesterday, Tian General Ce requested to stay in Youzhou for three years, and I have agreed. On the third day of the next month, General Tiance is ordered to lead 80,000 white-robed troops to station in Youzhou to suppress the Turks."

Li Changqing stepped out with a solemn face and eyes like lightning. He said loudly:"I accept my order! If we go to Youzhou, we will definitely eliminate the Turks' troubles in the Tang Dynasty!" Li Yuan nodded with a smile and said:"The Tubo is two-faced and has been wandering between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. It is a complete Idiot. Where is Li Ji, Minister of the Ministry of War?"

Immediately, a general who was not very strong and looked a little elegant came out.

"I'm here!"

"I order you to lead an army of 30,000 men to defend the border. If Tubo dares to make any unusual move, he will immediately strike with thunderous means!"

"Your Majesty, I obey the order!"

Compared with the Turks, the strength of Tubo is far behind.

At present, the Tang Empire does not have the confidence to go to war with the Turks, but it is not afraid of the Tubo at all. The early dynasty was used to discuss and handle national affairs for the emperor and his ministers.

If the emperor He was a Mingjun, and many times he would argue with his ministers.

As the ministers reported their reports one by one, Li Yuan issued orders one by one.

When the morning came to an end, Li Shimin stood up from the ranks of civil servants and said:"Father, Your Majesty, I have something to report."

"What's the matter?"

"The sixth brother is seventeen years old and has not yet married and had children. I went to Youzhou for three years. The sons and ministers asked their father to arrange a marriage for the sixth brother before he left for Youzhou."

For the sake of the country, the country, and the safe succession to the throne.

Li Shimin followed Changsun Wuji's advice and couldn't wait to get Li Changqing married as soon as possible.

Only when there was no more possibility between Li Changqing and Li Xiuning, what was hidden in Li Yuan's heart""The Emperor's Grandson" will not appear.

For this reason, there is no need to give up the beloved woman!

After listening to Li Shimin's memorial, a smile appeared on Li Yuan's face and said:"This is a great kindness for the people of the world. The ancients said that cultivating one's moral integrity is the best thing." The family governs the country and brings peace to the world. Evergreen marriages should be arranged as soon as possible."

Li Xiuning, the deputy commander of the White Robe Army who was standing in the court as a woman, suddenly changed his face and became a little ugly when he heard this. He looked at Li Yuan and opened his mouth hesitantly, but in the end he still couldn't say anything. What can happen? What can she say? Is this what a sister can do to persuade Li Yuan not to arrange a marriage for Li Changqing?

Li Changqing, who was standing in front of her, immediately raised his hands and said:"The Turks are not at peace, how can we get married. The son-in-law wanted to learn from Huo Qubing in the Han Dynasty, so he begged his father to grant him permission."

Li Yuan knew what Li Changqing was thinking and didn't listen to his excuses at all. He directly made his own decision and said,"I have my own opinion on this matter. After you retire from the court, you can go to Tai Chi Hall and wait for my summons."

……

Tai Chi Hall.

Li Changqing stood on the steps, waiting for Li Yuan's summons.

Li Yuan, on the other hand, met the eldest grandson Wugou inside who had been waiting for a long time.

In order to leave a good impression on Li Yuan, Changsun Wugu, who seldom put on makeup or makeup, spent several hours today dressing up carefully.

She was wearing a moon-white dress, simple and elegant.

A hairpin is inserted sideways into the silky black hair, and the remaining black hair hangs down on her waist.

There was a slight smile on the snow-white oval face, lightly rouged, and her cheeks were slightly red like a freshly bloomed viburnum.

His eyes are like a pool of clear water. When he looks at them, he has an elegant and gentle temperament that makes people feel ashamed and dare not blaspheme.

"Snowy skin and beautiful appearance, the beauty of the sky and the beauty of the country. What an elegant and elegant woman!"

Li Yuan gave her a very high evaluation when he saw Changsun Wugou for the first time.

After some exchanges, he felt that she was a good match for Li Changqing, and he was very happy.

He ordered Wang Chengren who was serving beside him:"Send the message to my son quickly. Evergreen comes in."

While he was excited, Li Yuan didn't even know that he had changed.
