Chapter 963 Defense
"Do you really want peace in the world?"

Li Chengqian whispered in his heart, and after sitting quietly for a while, he buried himself in the memorial in front of him.

Empress Changsun took Gao Yang for a walk in front of the Tai Chi Palace, listening to Gao Yang talk about what she had learned these days while walking.

Looking up at the East Palace not far away, Empress Changsun asked the maid accompanying her, "Has Chengqian been in the East Palace all this time?"

The maid said in a low voice: "Queen, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been staying in the East Palace these days, living in seclusion, and handling affairs in the East Palace all the time except for hearing the government in the morning."

Empress Changsun said discouragedly: "There are so many troubled things for the five surnames, it must be very difficult for Chengqian."

The maid lowered her head and said nothing.

Gao Yang raised his head and said: "Mother, have you listened to your daughter again?"

Empress Changsun smiled, stroked Gao Yang's bun and said, "Is that why you don't want to marry Fang Yiai?"

Gao Yang turned his head and said, "I don't want to marry him."

Even though Gao Yang said so, Empress Changsun smiled helplessly.

Today's Gao Yang is still only 14 years old, and it is said that his age is just a kiss.

The marriage of princesses and princes in the court has always been decided by His Majesty himself.

There seems to be a tacit understanding between Li Shimin and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.

The eldest sons of the Chinese and military ministers of the DPRK arranged their own marriages, and most of their second sons married princesses.

It not only maintains a distance, but also has a certain relationship with the royal family.

Under this kind of tacit understanding, Gao Yang's future husband-in-law will also do the same.

Li Shimin thought at first that it was Fang Xuanling's second wife's bereaved love.

Empress Changsun said: "Actually, the second child of the Fang family is not bad. The queen mother has seen it for you. He is a good child."

Gao Yang still raised his chin and turned his head, saying: "My daughter just doesn't like it!"

Getting used to Gao Yang's temper, Empress Changsun didn't want to say much, she glanced at Dong Gong and nodded secretly, "It seems that Cheng Qian is much more sensible."

Holding Gao Yang's hand, Empress Changsun was still strolling around the palace.

In the Qianyuan Hall, Li Shimin was drinking with Changsun Wuji.

Li Shimin held the wine bottle and said: "In the past two years, I have neglected the eldest grandson's family."

Changsun Wuji held the wine bowl and said: "Your Majesty, please don't say such a thing, I am willing to do my best for Your Majesty."

Li Shimin smiled and said: "Okay, your son has joined the official department now, and in the future he may be able to control the promotion of officials all over the world."

Hearing this, Changsun Wuji immediately knelt on the ground and said, "The dog is incompetent, I hope His Majesty will not blame you."

Li Shimin was a little drunk, but his eyes were still clear, he stared at Changsun Wuji and said, "How do you think I will recover Li Zheng?"

Changsun Wuji lowered his head and remained silent for a while.

Seeing that Changsun Wuji was silent, Li Shimin said, "Tell me, and I will listen."

"Here." Changsun Wuji bowed slightly and said, "I think Li Zheng, if His Majesty can subdue him, it's fine, if not, kill him!"

Putting down the wine bottle in his hand, Li Shimin stood up and said, "Why kill him?"

Changsun Wuji said loudly: "Now Your Majesty can restrain Li Zheng, but later on, your Majesty should be very clear about who will restrain Li Zheng and what Li Zheng is holding."

After saying this, Changsun Wuji's hands were also clenched in cold sweat, and he glanced at Li Shimin from the corner of his eyes.

Li Shimin said in a low voice: "How do you know that thing is in Li Zheng's hands, not mine."

"Chen..." Changsun Wuji's face turned pale immediately, as if His Majesty never said that the thing was in His Majesty's hands, and Li Zheng never said that he had that kind of thing, all of which he bought from Zhenxi Army All this has something to do with Li Zheng's disciple Daniu.

Li Shimin walked in front of Changsun Wuji, looked at him kneeling on the ground and said, "I actually trust you very much, but I really don't like people doing tricks."

Changsun Wuji was sweating like rain, he fell on the ground and said, "I am guilty!"

Li Shimin sneered and said, "Forget it, I don't blame you. If you hadn't done so many things back then, I wouldn't have been able to sit on the throne."

Changsun Wuji quickly said: "Your Majesty! From the bottom of my heart, Li Zheng is really too young. Now Li Zheng is only in his early twenties, and if he surrenders so much, who knows what will happen to him in the future. We have to guard against it, Your Majesty!"

Changsun Wuji was so excited when he said something that he almost kowtowed in front of Li Shimin.

Li Shimin squatted down and looked at his expression and said: "Of course I understand what you said. It's hard to say what will happen to Li Zheng in the future, but what about you in the future? Can't hold it down, even if it's you, look at the current Chengqian, can he hold you down as an uncle?"

"I can guard against Li Zheng, can I guard against you?"

Li Shimin's words echoed in the hall.

Changsun Wuji knelt on the ground and did not dare to move.

"It's because of the friendship between you and me at the beginning. I will not pursue your small actions in the court. The imperial examination is coming soon. I don't want this imperial examination to be an opportunity for you to gain wings. Do you understand what I mean? Why are you so eager to win over me? Talented people from all over the world, do you really think I am blind?"

After speaking, Li Shimin waved his sleeves and said, "You know what to do, step back."

Changsun Wuji saluted repeatedly and stood up to leave.

It wasn't until after he walked out of the palace gate that Changsun Wuji felt the chill on his back and the cold sweat all over his body.

Two days later in Jingyang, Li Zheng was modifying a bicycle while humming a little song.

Xu Jingzong came to Li Zheng's side and said, "Chang'an Ling, what are you doing?"

Li Zheng was already fiddling with the bicycle and said: "Tie Da's craftsmanship has improved a bit, and this iron chain is getting better and better."

Xu Jingzong stared at the greasy iron chain and nodded in understanding.

Li Zheng tied the iron chain on the gear and said: "Did you know? The better the fit between the iron chain and the gear, the better the efficiency and reduce the power consumption. The pedal drives the gear, the gear drives the iron chain, and the iron chain drives the rear." gears, the wheels turn faster."

Xu Jingzong still nodded with a vague understanding, "Chang'an Ling is really a god."

Li Zheng sighed: "Stop flattering, it's all about physics knowledge, you won't understand it if you tell me."

Xu Jingzong nodded again and again, "Chang'an Ling is right."

Li Zheng washed his hands, stood up and said, "Tell me, what is it?"

Xu Jingzong said in a low voice: "Eldest Sun Chong has been grounded."

"Foot grounding? What does it have to do with me?"

"Chang'an Order doesn't know anything." Xu Jingzong put his hands in his sleeves and said: "Now that the imperial examination is coming soon, his eldest Sun Chong will make friends with talented people everywhere in Chang'an City. Many people and scholars know that he is the son of the current uncle. If you want to curry favor, what's more important is that this eldest Sun Chong is still serving in the Ministry of Officials."

Li Zheng was thinking, "Is the imperial examination coming soon? Make friends with talented people? Still working in the Ministry of Officials."
