Early the next morning, Queen Changsun woke up from her bed. The bedside was empty, but there was no sign of Li Shimin!
She was a little confused as to where Li Shimin had gone.
Why do you get up so early?
There is no arrangement for the court meeting on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, so it is impossible for Li Shimin to go to court! Where would he go?
So, she left the room and saw Li Shimin sitting there without saying a word!
At this time he was looking out the window, not knowing what he was thinking!
The clothes he is wearing are from yesterday.
Not replaced at all.
There was some unfinished wine on his table.
His eyes were bloodshot and his face looked a little tired.
So, Li Shimin didn't sleep all night yesterday?
He seemed to have been drinking too.
Upon seeing this, Queen Changsun immediately walked over!
"Your Majesty, you didn't sleep last night? Why did you drink so much? Why don't you pay attention to your body so much!"
Li Shimin sighed!
explained:
"I can't sleep! Also, that's tea, not wine!"
It turned out to be tea. It seemed that he still cherished his body very much.
But not sleeping? How can that be done!
Then, Queen Changsun said:
"Ke'er and the others said that you can't stay up late because of your illness, as that would be bad for your health! It would be like taking the medicine in vain!"
Li Shimin stopped talking!
If he can't figure something out, he will keep thinking about it!
This is beyond his control.
If he was careless, he might just go to sleep.
But what happened yesterday made him unable to sleep.
Li Shimin asked:
"You said that I took the initiative to look for him, but he didn't see me! What is this?! Why is this? What is he thinking in his heart! Can you tell me? Can you tell me! If I can't figure this out, I still won't be able to sleep.
!”
At that time, all the people involved in the conflict between Li Shimin and Li Min were gone. Those who had left the country, those who died, and those who had left the court...
It can be said that no one can have any influence on Li Min. Li Shimin also wants to repair the relationship now, and his anger has subsided, but...
Why……
Therefore, Li Shimin couldn't sleep. He was thinking about this all night.
Empress Changsun persuaded: "Your Majesty, Min'er has been very busy. Last night I asked someone to inquire about me. He was still working very late. Such a busy person has no time to see guests! Really, no one is seen.
! Concubine Yang later went to see him at night, but still couldn't see him! So, you have to understand him."
"Am I a guest? Can I be like ordinary people?"
Li Shimin asked back.
But in Li Min's opinion, everyone is the same.
Sometimes he doesn't even notice Li Shimin anymore.
People don't know how to respond to such words.
Queen Changsun:......
"Your Majesty, I didn't mean that... I..." She didn't want Li Shimin to misunderstand, and she turned to him for everything!
"Okay, I'll think about it again and I must figure it out today!"
Queen Changsun is helpless!
But there is one more important thing to do today, right?
So she said: "Today is the day when Rengui goes on an expedition. We are going to send him off. Your Majesty, please keep yourself in good spirits, or take a nap? Otherwise, I'm afraid the children will think too much."
Li Shimin sighed!
Yesterday I promised to send it to Xue Rengui. He didn't forget it.
"That's right! I know! I'll think about it again. You can go out first. I want to be alone."
"His Majesty……"
"Get out!"
But he hasn't taken any action yet, does he really want to think about it?
Queen Changsun shook her head and sighed before leaving.
It wasn't until later that Li Shimin couldn't hold on any longer, so he went to sleep.
But this time I slept in the afternoon, and I still had no intention of waking up. It looked like I was really sleepy.
Queen Changsun and others were very anxious.
After all, the time for the expedition is getting closer and closer.
…
Around three o'clock in the afternoon.
Chang'an Station.
Xue Rengui and Li Lizhi appeared at the train station.
Li Lizhi looked at the sky and said, "Didn't my father say that he would send it to you? Why hasn't it come yet?"
Xue Rengui said: "Maybe you are busy?"
"Come, come to the palace and see what's going on?"
"No, I'm going to leave in a moment. His Majesty is busy, so we can't disturb him! Isn't that right?"
In fact, he didn't want Li Shimin to send it off.
Because of this gift, something might happen.
In this way, it would be better for Li Shimin to be less involved.
But in other people's minds, that's not what they think.
"Ren Gui, you understand people's hearts so well, but you are here for the Tang Dynasty, and your father has promised to come, so he will come! Otherwise, I will be sorry for your decision!" Li Lizhi is very principled!
For the sake of the Tang Dynasty and for the sake of Li Shimin’s empire, Xue Rengui should come and send him off! There is nothing wrong with this!
"Forget it, forget it, I don't have enough time, the train is leaving!"
The current train is carrying a load of goods to Taizhou.
Once it's time to drive, it won't wait for anyone.
Because this involves huge economic benefits, there are timetables for when to leave and when to arrive every day.
It cannot be postponed or brought forward.
At this time, Li Lizhi didn't understand.
She held the child in her arms.
I thought to myself, if the emperor doesn't come, that's okay.
But.
"Then Queen Mother should also come to see her, right? We agreed yesterday, so how can we not come? Concubine Yang should at least show up, and so far there is no one! It's so annoying!"
Li Lizhi became angrier as she talked.
Her tone was full of incomprehension.
They didn't know that Li Shimin was actually late because he was thinking about Li Min yesterday.
Because the emperor made a difficult decision, but people didn't see him.
There is a feeling of having a warm face against someone's cold butt.
This puzzled him very much, and he would inevitably think too much about it.
Maybe God did it on purpose.
It makes it impossible for the two father and son to reconcile.
And maybe after Li Shimin abdicates.
Their relationship can be repaired!
When the Tang Dynasty was in Li Min's hands, what conflicts could not be resolved?
Then, Li Lizhi looked at Xue Rengui.
Haven't spoken for a long time.
Why is this emperor so unreliable?
But after thinking about it, well, since he doesn't come, it doesn't matter.
"Then let me send you off. The result will be the same. I can represent my father."
If you think so, that's not wrong.
As long as she is here, it doesn't matter who comes.
"enough!"
"Where is the sixth brother? Where are the others? Why are they not together?" Li Lizhi asked again.
"He will wait for me in Taizhou!"
"Is that so? Then be careful!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the train whistle sounded.
In a minute or two, the train will leave.
"The train is leaving in one minute! I'm almost leaving!"
"Husband, be careful in everything you do!"
"I will, wait until I come back!"
Xue Rengui then kissed Li Lizhi on the face, and kissed his son gently on the face before getting on the train.
