Li Yuanji got up as quickly as possible, washed up, had a simple breakfast, and hurriedly fled Wude Hall with his children.
He fled to Zhaode Hall, ordered people to lay a thick blanket in the hall, threw several children on it, and felt completely at ease.
Since the office location was moved from Zhaode Hall to Taiji Hall, Zhaode Hall has completely become a private hall. Li Yuanji would come here to hide and relax when he had nothing to do.
It's just that I can avoid Yang Miaoyan, but I can't avoid the various government affairs of the Tang Dynasty.
Not even a quarter of an hour after he stayed in Zhaode Hall, Yu Wenbao came to see him, saying that the corridor in the palace was about to be closed, and invited him to come and watch the ceremony.
The corridor is built from both sides at the same time, and when it is built in the middle, it will merge together to form a complete corridor.
The purpose of this is to save time.
Although Li Yuanji wanted to be lazy for a while, after Yu Wenbao's repeated requests, he took his children and rushed to the location of the corridor.
When we arrived at the point where the two sections of the corridor were joined together, the craftsmen were hard at work fixing the door on the corridor.
The top, bottom, left and right sides of the portal are still empty.
Once the bricks are filled and the gate tower is built on the portal, the portal will be completely embedded in the city wall and the corridor will be closed.
What surprised Li Yuanji, but also found it reasonable, was that Li Yuan was also there, taking Pei Ji and a group of orioles to watch on a rockery, and his face was very ugly.
Thinking about it, the fundamental purpose of building the tunnel was to prevent him, Li Jiancheng, and Li Shimin from running around. It was to trap the three of them. As one of the parties involved, how could he be happy?
Therefore, Li Yuanji did not dare to bring his children up to him, because Li Yuanji was sure that Li Yuan would definitely go crazy after seeing him.
So the father and son, one inside the corridor and the other outside, witnessed the closing of the corridor together.
After the Heavenly Official of the Ministry of Rites burned incense and made a report, and the general who served as the prison nailed one hundred and eight coins to the large door, the Taoist priest raised in the palace announced that the auspicious time had arrived.
Hundreds of shirtless laborers pulled a long stone bar slowly across the door.
Thousands of laborers began to build walls above, below, left and right of the portal.
In just an hour, less than half of the door was surrounded by bricks and stones.
The closing ceremony was officially concluded.
All that's left is for the laborers to lay the bricks and stones thoroughly and build a gate tower on top.
This project will last about three to five days, so you don't have to wait all the time.
"Your Highness, the sage has spoken, please go to the cage and speak..."
Just when Li Yuanji was about to leave with his fat son who was peeing on Yu Wenbao's neck, Li Yuan sent a eunuch out, and he started to hurt people's hearts as soon as he opened his mouth.
Li Yuanji said without even thinking: "You go back and tell my father that Chengde is ill and I have to take him to see a doctor, so I won't bother him."
Although the eunuch knew that Li Yuanji was lying with his eyes open, and saw Li Chengde lively and aggressively booing on Yu Wenbao's neck, he still pretended that he had seen nothing, respectfully agreed, and left.
Li Yuanji quickly took his son off Yu Wenbao's neck, spanked his son and asked Yu Wenbao to continue supervising the project, and then left the corridor quickly.
The reason why he spanked his son was to show Yu Wenbao.
After all, my son was very unruly and peed on someone else's neck. He is now a father-in-law and must show him some respect, so he must give his son a spanking.
As for asking his son to apologize, or him apologizing on his son's behalf.
That's impossible.
Let’s not talk about whether Yu Wenbao deserves it or not.
Due to his and his son's status, they are destined to be unable to apologize to others.
Because in their capacity as father and son, if they have done something wrong, it is okay to give them some compensation, or even to let them get back on their feet in public, but it is absolutely not okay to apologize.
They cannot bow their heads, because this is the power given to them by the imperial power, and others cannot bear their bowing, because no matter how big and noble others are, they are not as powerful as the imperial power, let alone as noble as the imperial power.
Once someone appeared who was more powerful and noble than the imperial power, then only the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty would be waiting for this person.
"call……"
When he took his children back to Zhaode Hall, it was noon and he was hungry. Li Yuanji ordered people to prepare lunch and wrote the edict at the same time.
Yes, it is an edict.
Now that Li Yuan has also handed over the authority to write edicts, Li Yuanji can write any edict according to his own wishes, stamp it with a seal, and convey it.
If you are unhappy that day, you can write an edict to abolish the crown prince and it will still be conveyed.
It will also be recognized by civil and military officials in both the government and the public, as well as by the common people.
After all, nowadays, whether the prince or the emperor, they have basically become mascots. Who holds the power of the Tang Dynasty? As we all know, he is not the prince now, but he is better than the prince, and he is not the emperor, but he is no different from the emperor.
All that is missing is a name.
However, Li Yuanji did not intend to do this, because it was not conducive to his pursuit of the life he wanted to pursue, nor was it conducive to the inheritance of the Tang Dynasty, nor was it conducive to the unity within the Tang royal family.
】
Well, actually, half of the above statements are lies.
The most fundamental reason why he didn't plan to do this was that he didn't want to be tied to the great position of the Tang Dynasty and end up with a life of hard work.
He is not a powerful person like Zhao Ji or Zhu Carpenter who can ignore the suffering of the people and concentrate on enjoyment and art.
Therefore, if he is really tied to the great position of the Tang Dynasty, he will definitely work hard for the Tang Dynasty for the rest of his life.
Therefore, for the sake of my future life and my future freedom, I cannot depose the crown prince at any cost, let alone inherit Li Yuan's throne.
Li Yuan seems to like being a mascot, both historically and now. Although Li Jiancheng is a little more cautious, he can become a qualified mascot with a little training.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! So with such two qualified mascots, there is no need for him to become a mascot himself.
What he wanted to write this time was the edict to release Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin from Anlimen.
The Tai Chi Palace project in the second half of the blockade is almost completed. Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin no longer need to stay at Anli Gate. They can treat them as reunited with their families, and they can also be given a larger living area.
.
Otherwise, they might suffocate to death if they stay at Anlimen for too long.
After the edict was written, Li Yuanji ordered Liu Jun to take it to Anli Gate to read it. At the same time, he sent someone to send a message to Li Xiuning, asking Li Xiuning to re-defense the palace.
There is no need to guard Qianniu Royal Guards and Qianniu Palace Guards in other places in the future. Just concentrate on guarding the second half of Taiji Palace.
The remaining Qianniu Imperial City Guards are enough to guard the remaining palace city.
After the order was conveyed and the royal meal prepared by the Shangshan Division was ready, Li Yuanji had the little ones taken to the Wude Hall for Yang Miaoyan to nurse, and he began to eat.
After having a hearty meal every time, it's already half an hour later.
During this period, the eunuchs guarding the palace reported that An Xinggui wanted to see him.
Li Yuanji asked people to take An Xinggui to the side hall. After eating and drinking, and stretching his legs for a while, he rushed to the side hall to see An Xinggui.
"I am pleased to see you, Your Highness."
When they arrived at the side hall, An Xinggui stood guard at the door. When he saw Li Yuanji, he hurried forward to salute.
Li Yuanji waved his hand and asked An Xinggui to find a place to sit down and talk. Then, without being polite to An Xinggui, he went straight to the point: "The reason why you came to me is because I left you in Chang'an, right?
?”
Li Yuanji guessed that An Xinggui would come to see him after receiving the order to be transferred back to Beijing, so he took the initiative to tell An Xinggui the purpose of coming to see him, so that An Xinggui would not be too shameless to tell.
After all, transferring a powerful feudal official back to Chang'an City is tantamount to depriving him of part of his authority. No matter how good-tempered he is, he will definitely have some opinions.
So it is reasonable to come and ask for a meeting.
When An Xinggui heard this, his face became bitter at a speed visible to the naked eye, "I dare not deceive Your Highness, I am indeed here for this matter."
Li Yuanji slowly sat down, and after ordering someone to serve tea, he smiled and said, "You don't want to stay in Chang'an, but want to go back to Liangzhou?"
An Xinggui nodded honestly and said: "My clan is in Liangzhou, my ancestral hall is also in Liangzhou, my wife, children, and children are also in Liangzhou, and my brothers and sisters are also in Liangzhou. I really can't bear to leave them."
Not knowing whether An Xinggui was telling the truth or a lie, Li Yuanji continued to laugh and said: "I can't let go of the mountains and rivers of Taiyuan, and I can't let go of the ancestral hall in Taiyuan, but the capital of the Tang Dynasty is definitely here. Even if I can't let it go, I can't let it go."
Gotta stay here.
I know that An Qing has feelings for everything in Liangzhou, but An Qing is an important minister of the Tang Dynasty. He must contribute to the Tang Dynasty and make sacrifices for the people of the Tang Dynasty.
So even if I have feelings for everything in Liangzhou, I still have to come to Chang'an."
In short, if you eat both the emperor's salary and the people's salary, you have to share the worries of the emperor and the people and make some sacrifices.
There is no such thing as just taking benefits and not doing anything.
An Xinggui's face changed slightly, and he hesitated and said: "I have no other merits except marching and fighting. I really don't know what I can do if I stay in Chang'an City."
An Xinggui began to talk about his ability.
Li Yuanji sighed: "You are wrong. In your eyes, you can only march and fight, but in my eyes, you have many abilities. You can not only march and fight, but also defend one side. The most important thing is that you can only march and fight."
What's more, the generals and commanders from Liangzhou recognize you the most.
Only when you control them can I use them with confidence."
When An Xinggui heard this, his body trembled slightly.
He said "You are the most recognized by the generals and commanders from Liangzhou", which made his scalp tingle.
He is already the local emperor of Liangzhou. If the generals and commanders from Liangzhou listen to him again, then he will be the biggest threat to the court.
Li Yuanji's words were obviously meant to praise him, but he broke into a cold sweat when he heard them.
