Chapter 350

As soon as Wei Hao came over, Empress Changsun saw it, and immediately called Wei Hao to the greenhouse, and Li Zhi and Si Zi were also there.

"Brother-in-law!" Li Zhi was very happy when he saw Wei Hao coming.

"Come on, little fat man, this time my brother-in-law brought you a lot of delicious food, but it's agreed, you can only eat a little bit every day, not more, otherwise I won't bring you any more in the future!" Wei Hao said to Li Zhi said with a smile.

"Okay, brother-in-law, where's the food?" Li Zhi raised his head and nodded, looking at Wei Hao and asked.

"Brother-in-law, eat!" Sizi also yelled, and now Sizi knew he wanted to eat.

"Hey, baby Si, my brother-in-law brought some delicious food, so I'll get it for you!" Wei Hao smiled and hugged Si, and was about to go to get food, but the eunuchs and maids behind had already hugged her. up.

"Here, here, little biscuits, specially made for Sizi!" Wei Hao said as he motioned for an eunuch to come over. Wei Hao made small biscuits for Sizi to eat, and these biscuits were made in various shapes.

When Sizi saw it, he liked it so much that he hugged it all in his hands.

"You, don't rely too much on them!" Empress Changsun also said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"Queen, they're still young, they're fine!" Wei Hao said with a smile.

"Come on, Sizi, come down! My brother-in-law is very tired, come down and play by yourself!" Empress Changsun shouted to Sizi, Sizi was also struggling to get down, so Wei Hao put it down, and Sizi took the biscuits and started eating Get up, and Li Zhi likes to eat popcorn, so he started to eat it.

"Shen Yong, come and sit down. Yesterday I heard that you went to the East Palace, did you stay there all afternoon?" Empress Changsun called Wei Hao to sit down, and a court lady sat there making tea.

"Yes, His Highness and the Crown Princess are very enthusiastic, I'm so embarrassed, I can only finish dinner there!" Wei Hao said with a smile and nodded.

"You, go there more often if you have time. Gao Ming still listens to you very much, and attaches great importance to your words. It's just that this child is in the deep palace every day, and he doesn't understand many things. You should talk to him more. Tell me!" Empress Changsun sat there and said to Wei Hao.

"His Royal Highness actually understands everything. He just said that the authorities are obsessed, so after I went to talk about it yesterday, His Highness was relieved immediately, and many things that he couldn't figure out were also figured out." Wei Hao said with a smile while sitting there.

"That's good. I'm afraid that this child will stick to his horns. That's not good. Your father actually attaches great importance to Gao Ming. It's just that he is not only a father, but also an emperor. Gao Ming is not just a son. , is also a prince, so there must be a strict side in it." Empress Changsun looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Yes, I know, and I understand them. After all, sometimes, His Royal Highness does not understand these two identities." Wei Hao nodded and said.

"Well, by the way, when did the Supreme Emperor return to the palace? It's time for the Chinese New Year, and he should come back. I will go to your place after the Chinese New Year. Otherwise, during the Chinese New Year, your family will not be able to rest. So many princes want New Year's greetings to the old man, when the time comes you won't be able to entertain him." Empress Zhangsun continued to look at Wei Hao and asked.

"That's okay. The old man said that it's the Chinese New Year, and he wants to be reunited with His Majesty and the others, so I'm going to come back, probably the day after tomorrow. I will return to the palace the day after tomorrow. This time I will also send some gifts to Da'an Palace for the old man to entertain For guests!" Wei Hao replied to Empress Changsun.

"That's good. When the time comes, the empress mother will go to the gate of Da'an Palace to meet him in person. In the past few months, I have no way to greet him, and it is inconvenient to leave the palace. I will trouble you to take care of him." Empress Changsun smiled. Said to Wei Hao.

"Whether it's troublesome or not, it's mainly due to my personality confrontation with the old man, otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to my side." Wei Hao said with a smile.

"Well, I ate here at noon, and I haven't come here for a long time." Empress Changsun said to Wei Hao.

"Okay, let's go, let's play!" Wei Hao said to Li Zhi and Si Zi,
After playing with them for a while, Wei Hao went to Concubine Wei's palace. When he came to Concubine Wei's palace, Concubine Wei was of course very enthusiastic. She took Wei Hao to chat for a while, and then Wei Hao sent a carload of gifts Go to Li Lizhi's palace, Li Lizhi is not in the palace, but went outside,

Now that the end of the year is approaching, Li Lizhi is also very busy. After all, the Crown Princess has just given birth to a child, and she is mainly responsible for outside affairs.
Then Wei Hao sent some gifts to each of those concubines. After sending them, Wei Hao drove the carriage to the Da'an Palace,
But at this moment, on the side of Ganlu Hall, Li Shimin was sitting there, with three older sons standing in front of him, Li Chengqian, Li Ke, Li Tai, the three brothers had managed to come together.

However, the three of them are standing there now, and Li Shimin is lecturing.

"Excuse me, ah, I asked you for money from Azu? Pay back 1000 guan, tell me, what are you using that 1000 guan for, is it sent to Huafang?" Li Shimin stared at Li Ke and cursed, Li Ke lowered his head and said nothing.

"It's unreasonable, you said it yourself, have you lived in your palace for a few days after you came back? Going to paint boats every day, eh? Are you afraid of making people laugh? You haven't married yet, and you go to paint boats every day. Who would like to go to boats every day? Marry you?" Li Shimin continued to curse at Li Ke.

"Yes, father, I was wrong, but Azu insisted on giving this money to me, and I don't want it. If I don't believe you, ask my brother-in-law." Li Ke said with his head down.

Li Shimin glanced at him, then softened his tone and said: "If I give you money, my father won't say anything? But can you not spend it indiscriminately? How much did it cost to go to the boat? Last night, you were not alone in the boat. How many people did you bring? How much did you spend?"

"It didn't cost much. I spent 100 yuan. I finally came back. Those friends want to celebrate with me, so I have to go. I'm a prince, so I just let them spend money, right?" Li Ke stood there and replied.

"You? 100 yuan? You bastard, do you want to spend that 1000 yuan before you leave Beijing?" Li Shimin stared at Li Ke furiously and cursed, Li Ke stood there without saying a word .

Seeing Li Shimin scolding Li Ke so much, Li Chengqian also thought of Wei Hao's words in his mind, so he mustered up the courage to say to Li Shimin: "Father, the third brother knew that he was wrong. The third brother is in Shu, and it is very bitter there. It's not easy." Back in the capital, it’s understandable to celebrate with friends. The third brother is suave and open-minded. Father, please bypass the third brother this time.
The third brother's money will be made up by the son-in-law. At that time, the son-in-law will drag 1000 yuan to the old man's side. The third brother should not spend the old man's money. It was the old man who gave us grandchildren pocket money, but 1000 guan is not a small amount of money after all, the old man also has a lot of expenses, and there are many uncles who are very young and need to spend money. "

When Li Chengqian stood there talking, Li Shimin was shocked. He really didn't expect that Li Chengqian would stand up and speak to Li Ke, and even said that he would make up the money for Li Ke, but Li Shimin still said calmly: "Money , your mother has already made up for it!"

"That's good, third brother, if you're short of money, tell your elder brother that you still have some, you and my brother, don't be separated, and don't ask your father for it. In fact, your father doesn't have any money. Come to the East Palace to find me then! " Li Chengqian turned to look at Li Ke and said,

Li Ke was actually quite surprised, but he still cupped his hands to Li Chengqian and said, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness!"

"Hey, third brother, you and my brother, what are you calling His Royal Highness, just call me Big Brother!"

"Yes, brother!" Li Ke said immediately, cupping his hands, while Li Tai stood there watching the scene, not knowing what Li Chengqian was playing.

"Well, let's all sit down!" Li Shimin's expression softened a lot at the moment, and he asked them to sit down.

"Father, my son wants to ask for one thing!" Li Chengqian said to Li Shimin as soon as he sat down.

"What's the matter?" Li Shimin asked casually while making tea there.

"After the next year, I want to inspect the counties around Chang'an. It may take a month. I want to know how the people's lives are. This time, I have read the memorial written by them for the Li De Award. Every time, it feels like a stick in my throat, and I feel uncomfortable, thinking of the hard life of the people in my Tang Dynasty,
But, without going to see it in person, I still can't imagine the extent of the suffering. Therefore, I want to go down and have a look in person, inspect the surrounding people, go to the people's house in person, and ask my father for permission. "Li Chengqian cupped his hands to Li Shimin and said,
Li Shimin heard it, looked up at Li Chengqian, and then nodded with a smile: "Okay, Gao Ming has such an idea, very good, to understand the lives of the people, the people are very miserable, as a prince, and you two, as a prince A prince needs to benefit the people,

You are not as good at this as Shen Yong. Shen Yong, who grew up in Xicheng, knows what the people need. This year, the repair of the straight road has been praised by the people. Many people appreciate the road you built from Chang'an to Luoyang. It’s thanks to you. This point means that we have done a good job. In the future, we need to do more things like this! "

"Hey, I know, but I just said that I don't know the real living standards of the people, so I can't do some specific things. I say every day to benefit the people, but I don't know how to do it, so I need to go and see for myself. " Li Chengqian was also happy when he heard Li Shimin's praise.

"Okay, go ahead and bring some more guards there. You are the prince, so you need to learn more!" Li Shimin nodded and said.

On the other hand, Li Tai rolled his eyes, then cupped his hands and said to Li Shimin: "The words of the eldest brother just now are really inspiring, and I also want to go to see the people. go."

He just finished speaking, Li Shimin didn't know what to say?let him go?Why is Li Chengqian angry?not let him go?Didn't it suppress Li Tai's enthusiasm?
"Okay, the fourth brother is willing to help the eldest brother share this responsibility. Okay, father, I will go with the fourth brother when the time comes. It will be good to have a care, and it will also make the fourth brother lose weight. I said fourth brother, you have to cut back, or you will be out of breath when you walk in the future, it will be bad, go out with big brother this time, and suffer a little bit!" Li Chengqian agreed with Li Tai for the first time, and even went with Li Tai. ty kidding,

Li Tai was confused, and Li Shimin didn't know what happened to Li Chengqian, why did he change his sex all of a sudden?But this kind of Li Chengqian is the Li Chengqian he hoped for, so he nodded with a smile, and said to Li Chengqian and the others: "Okay, then Qingque will go with your elder brother!"

"Uh~" Li Tai was dumbfounded at the moment, he just said that whether he went or not would depend on his mood, if Li Chengqian really went out for a month, then he would suffer.

"What, fourth brother? Are you afraid that your elder brother will make you suffer? Hehe, you must endure hardship, but don't worry, I will definitely let you eat well." Li Chengqian still looked at Li Tai with a smile and said, feeling sorry for Li Tai in his heart. This kind of performance is also very proud. He probably never thought that he would agree to go.

"Your Majesty, I just heard the news that Xia Guogong has come to the palace and is giving gifts to all the empresses in the palace. It is estimated that he will go to Da'an Palace. In addition, there is a message from the Empress Empress asking if your majesty is free at noon. If you are free, go to the Lizheng Hall for lunch, the empress wants to invite Duke Xia to have lunch in the palace." Wang De came in at this moment and asked Li Shimin.

"Oh, Shenyong is here to give gifts, all right, send someone to call him over immediately, and also, go and tell the queen that I, Gao Ming, Qingque, and Ke'er are going to the Lizheng Palace for dinner together." Li Shimin smiled when he heard that Said to Wang De, Wang De smiled and cupped his hands, and withdrew.

Soon, Wei Hao came over. When he arrived at the Ganlu Hall, after Wang De went in to report in advance, Wei Hao went in directly.

"I have seen the father, yo, all of you are here, I have seen His Highness the Crown Prince, I have seen His Highness the King of Shu, I have seen His Highness the King of Yue!" Wei Hao smiled and said to them.

"Come, come, come and sit down, boy, is there a gift? Where is the gift?" Li Shimin smiled and beckoned Wei Hao to sit down.

"Father, look at what you asked. Of course I sent it to my mother's side. On your side, my mother's mother will share it with you. Anyway, I sent a lot!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin helplessly and said.

"You son of a bitch, I told you, can I send it here alone, and let me go to the Lizheng Hall every time? How about you?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and cursed.

"Father, you can ask, if the son-in-law is going to give gifts to his parents-in-law, if there are any separate gifts, please forgive me, of course I am, hehe, I know, you need wine, but this time I sent 100 catties Liquor, enough for your father, right?" Wei Hao said to Li Shimin with a smile.

"Well, bastard, that's enough, but your mother doesn't allow me to drink so much, but it's okay, hehe, did you send it to Lizhi?" Li Shimin asked Wei Hao happily again.

Wei Hao rolled his eyes again.Every time Wei Hao sent liquor to Li Lizhi, Li Shimin took it away.

"Just deliver it. Come, drink tea, Shen Yong, you have done a good job this year, and the emperor knows in your heart that you are lazy, but you are really doing a good job. I am very much looking forward to the spring of next year." , although it is said that the library needs to pay some money every month, but seeing so many students studying so hard in the library, I am very pleased and emotional,
Hey, if I had done this long ago, it would be great. However, it is not too late now. The other steel workshop is also very good, and it has brought great changes to our Tang Dynasty. This is also thanks to you! "Li Shimin said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"Father, look at what you said, what merits are not credited, do you think I care about this? I just want to let the people of Tang Dynasty live a better and fairer life, and don't be monopolized by those aristocratic families." It’s good to have all the opportunities, otherwise, the people will never have a bright future, and things will happen after a long time.” Wei Hao said with a smile.

"Yeah, you child, the emperor knows. By the way, you will go to court tomorrow for the last time. Remember to come. Also, I really don't want to fight. I don't know how to explain to your parents when you will be locked up in the cell during the Chinese New Year. , have you remembered it?" Li Shimin confessed to Wei Hao,

Wei Hao nodded with a smile and said reassuringly: "Don't worry, I promise not to fight tomorrow. If anyone makes me have a bad life this year, I will make anyone have a bad life next year!"

"You son of a bitch!" Li Shimin scolded when he heard that, laughing.

"Brother-in-law, can I borrow some money?" Li Tai approached Wei Hao with a smile at this moment, and asked Wei Hao,

Wei Hao was stunned when he heard this, and Li Shimin was also stunned.

"I said, you still owe your sister the money, right? Your sister told me that if you don't pay it back this year, your sister will go to your palace to ask for it in person!" Wei Hao immediately looked at Li Tai and said ,

Li Tai's face turned red in an instant, and at the same time, he was also scared. The eldest sister is about to make a move, and she wants to clean up herself?
"Ask why your brother-in-law wants money?" Li Shimin also stared at Li Tai dissatisfied and asked.

"Qing Que is short of money? How much is missing? Tell Big Brother, Big Brother will get you some." Li Chengqian looked at Li Tai with a smile and said, Li Tai looked at Li Chengqian stupidly, he felt that he didn't know Li Chengqian Alright, is this the real big brother?When did he become so generous?When Li Shimin heard it, he was also stunned.

"Brother's harvest this year is not bad, so, tomorrow, brother will send 2000 guan money to each of the third and fourth brothers to spend this year well, especially the third brother. It is not easy for you to come back from Sichuan, so you can buy something. When you go to Sichuan next year, take it with you!
But Qingque, you have been spending a lot recently. A few days ago, you got 5000 yuan from your mother, and now you are short of money, so you can’t spend it recklessly. It can be done in a way, the empress spends money very economically, if you are so extravagant, it will be bad for the empress to scold at that time, I will be short of money in the future, so I will come to the East Palace, the elder brother will find a way for you, don't bother the empress all the time . " Li Chengqian continued to smile, looked at Li Tai sincerely and said, making Li Tai foolish.
