Chapter Five Hundred and Fifty Nine: Beauty and Love
Prince Li Chengqian is actually not stupid, but perhaps because of the death of Empress Changsun, he became more extreme.
Therefore, after Li Min gave a little reminder, Li Chengqian immediately thought of the crux.
Li Chengqian was the first to name him because his mother's death caused him to become confused.
Then he was provoked by his subordinates, and he did such a thing.
And next, the more brilliant point is that Li Chengqian did not plead for mercy, but instead begged Li Shimin to dethrone him as the crown prince.
This made Li Shimin look at him several times.
And the last sentence, "I am willing to give up the position of crown prince to Li Tai," actually has the flavor of diverting misfortune to the east.
Li Tai, who happened to be at this moment, had not yet reacted.
After all, Li Tai at this time was only a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old.
He is not as precocious as Li Min.
At this time, Li Tai felt a little resentful towards Li Min.
This guy doesn't know what he's doing.
Doesn't he want to take the opportunity to move the prince?
Today's opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
If he and I had just made trouble for the prince, maybe the prince would have been deposed by now.
What a shame, this guy was pleading for the prince just now. I really don’t know what he was thinking.
At this time, Li Shimin was really angry and angry when he heard what Li Chengqian said.
Of course, I actually felt guilty.
Li Shimin raised his foot and gave the prince a hard kick, directly knocking him away.
"You bastard! Do you still know that what you are doing is worse than a pig or a dog? Do you think I really won't destroy your prince?"
Li Tai, who was kneeling next to him, was so excited when he heard Li Shimin's words that he almost shouted: "Waste it! Waste it quickly! Waste it quickly!"
Li Chengqian turned over and continued to lie on the ground, crying bitterly: "Father, I am wrong! Please punish me severely, please abolish my position as crown prince! I am willing to be punished!"
"Hmph! You bastard! Aren't you asking for your position as prince to be abolished? Well then -"
Before Li Shimin finished speaking, Li Min was already walking on his knees, moved forward, and hugged Li Shimin's knees tightly.
"Father, you must not do this! No one can make mistakes without being a sage. The prince was just deceived by others and was confused for a moment, so he did something wrong."
"There is nothing better than being able to change your past, Father! I sincerely ask Father to give my eldest brother a chance to change his ways! Please give me your permission."
At this time, Li Tai, who was kneeling next to him, hated Li Min so much in his heart.
My father wanted to depose the prince just now, why are you talking so much!
Really!
No! This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity must not let the prince stand up!
Gritting his teeth, Li Tai couldn't help but said: "Father, yes, the sixth brother is right. The eldest brother, the prince, was just confused for a moment and did something wrong."
"Anyway, my sixth brother and I are fine. I believe that after this incident, the prince will not hold a grudge and will not seek revenge from us again. Even after the prince ascends the throne in the future, he will not do anything to us!"
Li Tai's words clearly seemed to be pleading for the prince, but in fact he was continuing to frame the prince.
If the prince is let go this time, then this kind of thing will definitely happen again.
But next time, they may not have such good luck.
Hearing Li Tai's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but said to Li Chengqian: "You bastard, if your two brothers hadn't interceded for you together, I would have abolished your position as prince today!"
"Since your two brothers have begged for you like this, I will let you off this time! If you dare to be such a bastard again in the future, let's see how I deal with you! This time, you will go back to the East Palace and spend half a year behind closed doors. In these six months,
You are not allowed to step outside the East Palace!"
After hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Chengqian kowtowed heavily on the ground, and then said with tears in his eyes: "My son, I thank my father for your kindness! My son, please retire!"
After that, Li Chengqian got up from the ground with difficulty and limped out.
After walking out of the door, Li Chengqian's original expression of fear and guilt couldn't help but change, and his face showed a somewhat ferocious look.
At this time, Li Tai, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but doubt his ears.
Did I really plead for the prince just now?
Is there any? Why don’t I know it myself?
Now Li Tai even wanted to explain to his father that what he said just now was really not to plead for the prince.
It's really not the case. Don't you, the old man, even hear the truth?
Fortunately, Li Tai also knew that the time had passed and it was not appropriate to mention this matter again.
Li Min, on the other hand, took the opportunity to plead again: "Father, I sincerely ask my father to take back the order of conferring the title of King of Zhennan on me."
At this time, Li Shimin was still on fire.
Hearing Li Min's words, he couldn't help but look at Li Min angrily, and then asked: "Why is this? I have a golden tongue, how can I not keep my words uncounted?"
Li Min quickly said: "Father, first of all, this matter is not in line with etiquette. Secondly, I don't want to see brothers killing each other and embarrass my father."
After hearing Li Min's words, Li Shimin was silent for a long time.
After a long while, he let out a long sigh and said to Li Min: "Min'er, you can return to Shu tomorrow!"
"Yes, Father!"
After walking out of the Imperial Study Room, Li Min couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
In the end, his father finally relented and did not force him to be crowned King of Zhennan.
Well, tomorrow, we can return to Yizhou.
This time, I was away for more than half a year.
In a few months, the Chinese New Year will be here.
Year after year, time flies so fast!
…
At this time, in the imperial study room, Li Shimin's face no longer looked angry as before.
"Gao Lishi, what do you think about this matter?"
Gao Lishi, who went to the Prince of Shu's mansion in the morning to take away the assassins, appeared in the imperial study like a ghost.
In other words, in addition to the prince, the king of Wei and the king of Shu, there was also He Gan Chengji.
There is actually a sixth person in the royal study.
But the other four people did not notice the existence of Gao Lishi.
After hearing Li Shimin's question, Gao Lishi said quietly: "To report this matter to Your Majesty, I feel that the Prince will definitely change his ways."
Li Shimin said calmly: "I didn't ask you the prince, I asked the king of Wei and the king of Shu."
Gao Lishi said in confusion: "Your Majesty, these two princes are very good!"
Li Shimin couldn't help but burst into laughter: "You old guy, you're quite naughty."
"Well, Qingque is still too impatient! Do you really think I can't see his little thoughts?"
"However, I also think that what Qingque said is right. If the prince is really allowed to ascend the throne, how many of his brothers will survive?"
"That's all for the prince and Qingque. Old man, what do you think of Zhen'er?"
Gao Lishi couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, the King of Shu is very talented and knowledgeable, and he is capable of both civil and military service. What's even more rare is that he is filial to the Emperor and Concubine Yang, and his brothers, friends, and brothers are respectful. This slave and maid think it is really rare."
Li Shimin's face showed a thoughtful look, and he couldn't help but ask again: "Then what do you think, let Min'er be the prince?"
Upon hearing Li Shimin's question, Gao Lishi immediately began to act crazy.
"Your Majesty, what did you ask just now? What do you want to eat for dinner? I will go and ask you right now!"
Li Shimin couldn't help but laugh. This old guy is really smart.
The problem Li Shimin is thinking about now is actually Li Min's problem.
The prince and Li Tai had no secrets at all in front of him.
Li Shimin could see through them at a glance.
But for Li Min, Li Shimin suddenly felt like he couldn't see through him.
In fact, both Prince Li Chengqian and King Li Tai of Wei have disappointed Li Shimin now.
On the contrary, Li Min, the king of Shu, gradually came into Li Shimin's sight.
Li Min was in Jiannan Road and managed the entire Jiannan Road in an orderly manner.
At present, Jiannan Road can be said to be the wealthiest road in the Tang Dynasty and the best public security.
Not only that, the emergence of cement, glass, railways and other inventions also changed the lives of the people of the entire Tang Dynasty.
The introduction of emerging crops such as corn, peanuts, sweet potatoes, and potatoes basically solved the problem of food and clothing for the people of the Tang Dynasty.
When it comes to leading troops in battle, King Li Min of Shu is also invincible in every attack.
He is simply an all-rounder.
If we were to choose based on ability, King Li Min of Shu would undoubtedly be the best choice.
The reason why Li Shimin named Li Min the King of Zhennan.
Partly because of Changsun Wuji's instigation, on the other hand, it was because Li Shimin wanted to test Li Min.
But the outcome of the matter made Li Shimin quite disappointed.
Min'er, can you really be a good emperor?
well!
It's a pity that his biological mother is Concubine Yang!
…
The next day, Li Min couldn't wait to get on the train and go to Yizhou.
This time, after being away for several months, Li Min really felt homesick.
In the afternoon, Li Min returned to Yizhou again after a long absence.
When getting off the bus, Li Min saw Princess Qin Mengxin, Xue Xiaoxiao, Wu Meiniang, and Liu Zhi, all eagerly waiting outside the station to pick her up.
Well, even Xiaocai, Doudou and Panpan came with us.
When they saw Li Min walking off the train, the girls burst into tears.
Seeing this scene, Li Min couldn't help but feel distressed.
He quickly took out his handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of the eyes of the girls one by one.
"Don't cry, don't cry, am I back safely?"
It took a long time before the girls stopped crying.
The princess looked at Li Min for a long time and said distressedly: "Your Highness, you have lost weight!"
Li Min laughed and said, "Now is the time to grow taller! This is not about losing weight, but growing up!"
"Come on, let's go home! I haven't eaten Yizhou's delicacies for more than half a year. I really miss it!"
After that, Li Min led the girls and walked out of the station first.
Xiaocai was flying above everyone's heads, and Doudou was running around beside Li Min.
As for Panpan, he was holding a bamboo branch and following behind in a naive manner.
What picked them up outside was a steam tricycle.
Of course, this steam tricycle is not a military steam tricycle.
Instead, Li Min equipped all state officials in Jiannan Road with their special vehicles.
As for civilian use, it has not been launched yet.
It is impossible to launch it in a short period of time.
Because this kind of steam tricycle can be used for military purposes with just a few modifications.
Unless they improve and create a more advanced second-generation tank, it will be impossible to apply it to civilian use.
Returning to the Jiedushi Mansion, Li Min took a comfortable hot bath first.
In the evening, Princess Qin Mengxin arranged a sumptuous reception banquet, and Li Min had a hearty meal.
…
On the second day, Li Min slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up.
As soon as I sat up from the bed, I saw Willow Zhi walking in quickly.
"Your Highness, are you awake? Let me help His Highness get dressed!"
Liu Zhi was originally two years older than Li Min, but now she is a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.
Her figure is convex and concave, and she is as juicy as a green onion with its skin peeled off.
I used to hang around me all the time and didn't really feel it.
Now that he has been away for more than half a year, Li Min feels as if the willow branches have suddenly grown bigger.
The face that originally had some baby fat has now quietly changed, turning into a long oval face, and starting to have a pointed chin.
If put to future generations, it would be a standard internet celebrity face.
And some of them in the West are already quite large.
Seeing the prince's burning eyes, Liu Zhi was a little shy and nervous, but of course, she also had the slightest hope in her heart.
Under Liu Zhi's service, Li Min quickly got dressed and finished washing.
In fact, there are many little girls in the house now.
There are four little girls serving Liu Zhi.
But Liu Zhi has done everything to serve the prince, and she has always served him personally.
Li Min told her several times, but she refused to listen, so Li Min had no choice but to give up.
After breakfast, Li Min took Li Yuanfang to the streets of Yizhou, preparing to see the changes in Yizhou in the past six months.
Well, in just half a year, Yizhou has changed a lot.
First, the scale of the new city continues to expand.
In half a year, it has expanded to a quarter of its size.
And currently, it is still being expanded.
Now, because of the opening of the railway between Hangzhou and Yizhou, there are more tourists in Yizhou now.
On the street, it can really be described as rubbing shoulders and rubbing heels.
Even Chang'an City is not so prosperous and crowded.
Of course, the scale of Chang'an City is much larger than that of Xincheng.
In terms of total population, Chang'an City is naturally superior.
Because of the launch of Yizhou Monthly, the entire Tang Dynasty now knows Yizhou very well.
There were actually quite a few wealthy people in the Tang Dynasty.
Many people are interested in coming to Yizhou to have a look.
However, in the past, only Chang'an City and Yizhou had trains.
Many people, even if they wanted to come, could not make the trip because the journey was too far.
And now? Because the trains from Hangzhou and Yizhou are now running, many wealthy people from the south have begun to travel to Yizhou.
This also made Yizhou more prosperous.
Of course, there are benefits brought by train traffic.
But far beyond Yizhou's gains, the entire Jiannan Road also followed the gains.
The per capita income of the entire Jiannan Province is now at least double that of last year.
In the days of common people, sesame blossoms are blooming steadily.
