Those Confucian scholars originally planned to make Li Chengqian embarrassed.
But what’s the final result?
Not only did Li Chengqian not suffer any embarrassment, but the people all over the capital saw the outstanding grace of their Highness the King of Qin.
It also allowed the people to see the difficulty of the Liangzhou Army and the sacrifice of the Liangzhou Army.
Compared with the former, the latter is what Li Chengqian wants more.
It doesn't matter to him, he doesn't care.
In other words, he never cared.
What he really cares about is whether his brothers can be recognized by everyone.
And when Li Chengqian arranged for the ashes of the fallen soldiers, he did not return to his mansion immediately and went directly to the palace.
…
Inside the Manna Hall.
When Li Chengqian came to Ganlu Hall.
Li Shimin didn't even raise his head, still looking at the book in his hand.
After a long time, Duke Zhou finally reminded him: "Your Majesty, His Highness King Qin has been waiting for you for a long time."
"In your words?"
"I do not see it?"
Li Shimin raised his head and rolled his eyes at Eunuch Zhou, and then slowly said: "I heard that your boy has caused me trouble again?"
"court disaster?"
Li Chengqian said happily: "No..."
"hehe……"
Li Shimin sneered.
"As soon as I came back, we started such a big battle and even beat up all my disciples."
"What if this isn't causing trouble?"
Li Shimin put down his book, looked at Li Chengqian, and said with a sinister expression: "How do you want me to punish you?"
"Penalty?"
"Father, you are just joking with me."
Li Chengqian took two steps forward, and then said: "My father asked me to come back, isn't it just to teach these guys who don't know how high the sky is?"
"What?"
"Don't talk nonsense..."
"I didn't ask you to hit anyone."< br>
Li Shimin tilted his head, as if he was eager to distance himself from this matter.
Immediately, he said: "You kid is really getting more and more outrageous now. After beating someone, you still dare to blame me."
As he spoke, his eyes narrowed and a cold light flashed: "Do you think I am too old to spank you, so you dare to be so presumptuous?"
When he finished speaking, he did not forget to glance at Li Chengqian's butt.
This look really brought back the shadow of Li Chengqian's youth.
Li Chengqian held his butt almost subconsciously, and then showed a naive smile towards Li Shimin.
He said: "Father, you are... not... bad."
"My son is already so old and has a family and a career. If you spank my son, I won't be able to save my face."
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin laughed directly.
"You kid also knows how to save face?"
"Then do you think I should lose face?"
Immediately, he raised his finger and pointed at a large pile of memorials next to the desk and said, "Do you know what this is?"
After taking a look at the memorials and Li Shimin's expression, Li Chengqian understood what it was.
However, he did not say it out loud. Instead, he deliberately pretended to be stupid and said, "What is it? Are they all memorials to praise the merits of my sons and ministers?"
"You are quite thick-skinned."
Li Shimin chuckled lightly, grabbed a memorial and said: "The King of Qin inherited Qian and acted tyrannically in the Western Regions, which was against the laws of nature and human ethics. He even committed the evil act of massacring hundreds of thousands of people. I hope your Majesty will punish him with a serious crime..."
After finishing his words, he glanced at Li Chengqian and picked up the second memorial.
"The King of Qin inherited Qian and killed innocent people indiscriminately in the Western Regions, which damaged the prestige of our country, the Tang Dynasty, and undermined His Majesty's concept of royal governance. If this person is still in the imperial court, he will definitely arouse resentment among the people. I hope Your Majesty will put the overall situation first..."
Li Shimin casually
The memorial was thrown back into the pile, and then he said: "These memorials, without exception, are all written by you. What do you think I should do?"
"Um……"
"It's easy to handle."
Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin with a smile and said: "Let's demote my son to a commoner..."
Earlier, Li Chengqian was extremely afraid of being crippled, demoted, and killed miserably, the three-hit package.
But now, he has thought about it.
Instead of being forced by Li Shimin to become the prince.
It's better to take advantage of this opportunity and let Li Shimin destroy him.
That way, at least I can be a wealthy man living in a farm with peace of mind.
He didn't believe that with his ability, he could still starve to death.
However, after hearing his words, one can imagine Li Shimin's mood.
In an instant, the system prompt sounded.
{Received anger value +399 from Li Shimin...}
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"As the eldest son of the empire, you don't want to make progress, but give up on yourself. Who taught you this?"
Li Shimin pointed at Li Chengqian with a dark face and shouted: "Do you want to make me angry to death?"
"Father, you have wronged my son..."
"That's what these memorials say."
"Not to mention other things, just the crime mentioned here is enough to behead my son."
"In this case, being demoted may still be the best choice."
Li Chengqian said: "Why don't my father consider it and choose another person to be the prince? For example, Pheasant Nu would be good. He is still young and my father can train him and he will definitely be better than his son."
"shut up!"
Li Shimin is really going to explode now.
The system prompts sounded continuously in Li Chengqian's mind.
What he just said was obviously a joke to Li Chengqian.
How could he agree with what these memorials said?
On the contrary, he also felt that Li Cheng Everything you do is right.
Li Chengqian even helped him do things that he wanted to do but couldn't do.
It's too late for him to be happy, so how can we really punish him severely?
But this guy could just climb up with a pole, or simply say that he would be demoted to a commoner.
What is this for?
Slap yourself in the face?
If this guy wasn't old and married, Li Shimin would have really wanted to teach this guy a lesson with his three-foot-long ruler.
After taking several deep breaths, Li Shimin finally calmed down.
He waved his hand and said: "Eunuch Zhou, bring me the edict I have prepared a long time ago."
"ah?"
Eunuch Zhou was also stunned.
He looked directly at Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty, do you want to..."
"Stop talking nonsense, just take it if I tell you to."
After hearing this, what else could Eunuch Zhou say?
He hurriedly went down to help Li Shimin get something.
Just when Li Chengqian was full of doubts, Li Shimin suddenly sneered.
"You don't want to be the prince, do you?"
"You want to be a common man, right?"
"But I am not satisfied with you."
Li Shimin sneered at Li Chengqian and said, "I will issue an edict now to make you the crown prince."
"Father, no!"
Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian was so frightened that his hair stood up.
It was simply more frightening than when Li Shimin said he wanted to kill him.
He rushed forward directly and said: "Father, my son is really immoral and incompetent, and is not worthy of being a prince. Moreover, he made such a big mistake just now, how can he be a prince?"
"I said you can, you can."
Li Shimin said very domineeringly: "Just go back and wait patiently for Ting Feng."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian was a little dumbfounded.
