The man in black was describing what happened outside Fuyun Restaurant today, and Li Shimin listened very carefully, not missing any link, and the smile on his face became more and more prosperous.
To be honest, in the early years of Zhenguan, Li Shimin was also controlled by the Five Surnames and Qiwang, and he wanted to teach them a lesson, but because the major families were so deeply infiltrated, if Li Shimin didn't want to quarrel, he should try not to provoke them.
.
Nowadays, the national power of the Tang Dynasty is rising, and Li Shimin's right to speak is getting stronger and stronger. Therefore, Li Shimin also wants to test the five surnames and seven hopes again, but he doesn't know where to start. Unexpectedly, this kid actually came to
Front.
"What's going on with the Cui family?"
What Li Xiang did was indeed very satisfying, and it also gave Li Shimin a sigh of relief. However, the Cui family is not an ordinary family. It ranks first among the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes. If such a big person is lost, if they are not found back,
Then I'm afraid it's not them.
"My subordinates haven't found out yet, but I have arranged for the masters to be present at several of the Cui family's mansions in the capital. If there is any trouble, I will know immediately."
The man in black did things very carefully. This matter was related to the struggle between the royal family and the Cui family. He did not dare to take it lightly and sent out all his best men.
"Where's the brat?"
After Li Shimin asked, he felt that it was unnecessary to ask this question. This boy had returned to the East Palace half an hour ago. No matter how bold the Cui family was, they would not dare to attack anyone in the palace.
"I dare to say something boldly. His Highness Changsun doesn't need anyone to look after him. His subordinates are all masters."
The man in black had a strange face when he said this. All the masters from all walks of life have been inherited in an orderly manner, and it is impossible for them to appear out of thin air. However, Ren Ping and the others tried their best, but in the end they could not find out those around His Highness Changsun.
Where do people come from.
"Go and deliver this imperial edict to the Ministry of War."
Li Shimin picked up an imperial edict that had already been written.
The content of the imperial edict is very simple, that is, to commend Mr. Pan, the chief seal of the Liaodong Division of the Ministry of War.
What Li Xiang did was also excessive. Li Shimin couldn't be too protective, but he couldn't help but support him. If Li Xiang gave in, he would probably make everyone in the world laugh at him. You, the grandson of the emperor, are all
He can't outplay the rest of the Cui family, let alone the rest of the Cui family.
Now Li Shimin did not mention Li Xiang's matter, but instead commended the Liaodong Secretary for his seal, and also mentioned the matter of catching Korean spies, which indirectly supported Li Xiang and said that he had done the right thing.
"Your Majesty, if this happens, doesn't it mean that you are facing off against the Cui family? Should you think more about it?"
The man in black has been with Li Shimin for many years. He is not just a tool for doing things. He has mastered all the power of Li Shimin secretly. He is also a think tank in normal times, so he can say something.
"The Tang Dynasty has been at peace for a long time, and it is not the early years of Zhenguan. The five surnames and Qiwang are still living their lives as before. How can this be done?"
Li Shimin stood up and stretched. In fact, he has wanted to do this for a long time, but he has never had the chance. To be more precise, there is no right entry point. After all, the two sides are not in conflict with each other. Today
It can be regarded as finding an opportunity, and the matter has been done, and you cannot continue to deliberate. In the past, Li Shimin could not make up his mind, and was afraid of affecting the good situation in front of him, but Li Xiang has made up his mind for him, so he can only continue.
Going down, on the battlefield of power struggle, there is no way out.
"Then tomorrow morning..."
The man in black did not continue, but Li Shimin also understood that there will definitely be a lot of people going to court tomorrow morning. On the one hand, they will impeach Li Xiang for fighting in the street, and on the other hand, they should also advise Li Shimin not to commend the Liaodong Division Chief Seal, which will make the situation more serious.
Extreme.
"Zhao Chao is a mirror looking into demons. Each person's memorial and sentence can represent his position and thoughts. Now that the lake has been calm for so long, it's time for someone to stir things up."
Living a peaceful life for too long will make others lose their fighting spirit. It is impossible for Li Shimin to let Wu Xing Qi Wang continue like this. What should come will come sooner or later.
"Go down, send someone to keep an eye on them, read the news carefully, and report anything immediately, but you must protect him."
After Li Shimin finished speaking, the man in black disappeared.
East Palace
"You brat, what do you want me to say about you? Why do you have such a big deal? I did ask you to find the Cui family's bad luck, but I didn't tell you to find it like this. Cui Yuncheng is not an ordinary person. That is
One of the eight servants of the Cui family is very likely to become the next patriarch of the Cui family. Even if I meet the next patriarch of the Cui family, I have to perform the courtesy of son-nephew."
Li Chengqian was about to go crazy. He had known for a long time that his son was not a fuel-efficient person, but he did not expect to do things so recklessly. If he had known that this was the case, he would never have given him that idea.
If his son's behavior causes turmoil in the Tang Empire, his son's future will be lost. In order to appease the anger of the five surnames and Qiwang, the emperor will most likely choose to sacrifice a grandson. After all, he has many grandsons, but
There is only one empire.
"Then Father, do you want to stop bowing to him in the future?"
Li Xiang said speechlessly that although Li Chengqian was Li Shimin's biological son, Li Chengqian's courage was far behind Li Shimin. Even if he wasn't so ridiculous, Li Shimin probably wouldn't let him become the emperor.
"What you said is simple. That is the largest family in the world. It has lasted for hundreds of years since the previous dynasty. Can you suppress it if you want? Your grandfather has tried his best for so many years, but he can only maintain it.
In order to understand the current situation, I didn’t think of doing anything excessive, but you were lucky. Not only did you seriously injure Cui Yuncheng, but you also closed down his restaurant, my God!”
Li Chengqian was so anxious that he almost went to the room, but Li Xiang still sat there obediently and did not feel that he was in trouble, because it was already the middle of the afternoon. If the emperor was angry, the imperial edict would have been here long ago, but
There is no news now, which means that the emperor and we have the same idea.
It's a pity that this old man can't understand the emperor's heart!
"Why are you acting like a normal person? Do you know how many people are going to join you tomorrow morning?"
Seeing his son's calm demeanor, Li Chengqian was furious.
"Even if there are hundreds of people, isn't it still my grandfather who makes the final decision?"
Li Xiang's words immediately made Li Chengqian speechless...
