Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th.

Although this may be the worst Mid-Autumn Festival that Li Yuan has ever spent in his life...the penultimate one was Tiantai Mountain last year, but Li Yuan still held a banquet in Cuiwei Hall.

The troops in Qizhou, Longzhou, and Ningzhou have all turned around. Now, in addition to Li Shan's bodyguards inside and outside the Phoenix Valley, there are only Shangfanfu soldiers led by Zhang Pinggao and Liu Hongji. As for the Beiya Imperial Army who is in charge of the imperial palace, they are from Chang'an. Some of them were transferred over, but the original troops had suffered all their casualties when Yang Wenqian conspired to rebel.

Although there was a banquet, it was relatively simple. After just experiencing a rebellion, Li Yuan and Li Shimin had no intention of making a big deal, so they ended it hastily.

In the back hall, Li Yuan sat by the window, "That must be Zhang Gongjin. Later, I will ask my disciples to use the seal to say goodbye to Daizhou. Who does Erlang want?"

"Father, let's choose." Li Shimin maintained a cautious attitude. In addition to Qin Wutong, Li Shiji and Xue Wanjun are all his people in Daidi today. Liu Shirang, the governor of Shuozhou and the governor of Xinzhou are also his people. Really There is no need to grab this spot.

"Huh?" Li Yuan heard the chirping children, looked out the window, and laughed and cursed: "Huairen is really... a dignified heir, a famous general in the world, actually leading a child to flutter butterflies and catch insects, what does it look like!"

Li Shimin couldn't help but smack his lips, "He actually had fun with the eldest son of the Chai family and the eleventh brother... Huairen once mentioned to the third sister that he still has a childlike innocence."

"Do you still have a childlike innocence?" Li Yuan chuckled, "My father was also confused that day!"

"Father?"

"I actually want him to be the prime minister!" Li Yuan said with a smile: "Look at what he looks like... In 20 years, I'm afraid he won't be qualified!"

Li Shimin wasn't sure if his father's words had any deeper meaning. Li Yuan also noticed it and glanced at his son, "We'll talk about it then. But Huairen is kind to others and has a cautious temperament. He hasn't changed much or become a pillar, but he should be It’s good for the country.”

"Maybe it can also be a pillar and a stronghold of the country." Li Shimin said calmly.

There was endless confidence in his calm words.

Li Yuan was startled, then waved his sleeves and said, "That's right, Erlang is no better than a father, so there is no need to worry about this."

"However, Huairen has no ambition to make progress." Li Shimin said with a smile: "Now, everyone inside and outside the Phoenix Valley thinks that the love between Wei and his successor is unparalleled."

"Is it because of Wei Xuancheng?"

"Yes." Li Shimin nodded and said: "He found the child after begging his father...Father, the child is determined to call Wei Zheng back to the capital one day. This man has a strong personality and may be able to take charge of the sect one day."

"It's up to you to deal with it, but it's not just Wei Xuancheng." Li Yuan looked at Li Shan who was yelling, "There are also Li Qianyou, the fourth brother of Pharmacist Li, and, uh, Xue Wanche."

Turning to look at his son, Li Yuan said in a low voice: "Huairen asked me privately yesterday not to transfer Xue Wanche back to the capital, or to serve as a deputy governor of the state, or to make up for the history of the Yuan governor left by Li Qianyou."

The implication is very clear. Now that Qin King Li Shimin has replaced Li Jiancheng in the East Palace, it is already unstoppable. Li Shan first rushed Wei Zheng to Lingnan to avoid trouble, and also wanted to put Xue Wanche away to avoid being implicated.

In fact, it is impossible not to be implicated, but Li Shimin has some speculations in his heart. After all, there is no Yi Chu, and there is Pei Shiju behind him. Once Xue Wanche returns to Beijing, with his ability to lead the army, he might be used by Pei Shiju... just in case. If Xue Wanche is involved, his life or death will be uncertain.

Li Shimin sighed, "Li Huairen is nostalgic for old friendships. I heard Ling Gong mention that he deeply hates Duke Dai. The biggest reason is that the bodyguards around him were severely damaged. When he returned to Beijing from Daizhou that day, the village was full of people. Every family in Huairen offered sacrifices and burst into tears."

"Pingyang also mentioned that Huairen was in Guji Town to pay homage to the fallen soldiers that day. He was so distraught that he fell to the ground in dizziness due to heartbreak." Li Yuan said with some emotion, "It was a great achievement to save people twice, but for As an old friend of the Donggong Sect, it is indeed sentimental and righteous for me to plead for mercy."

After a pause, Li Yuan made up his mind, "Then let Xue Wanche come to the meeting and then be transferred to Daizhou Biejia. In the future, we will conquer the Turks. Brothers Xue Wanche and Xue Wanjun can be the vanguard generals."

"Yes." There was a loud shout from outside. Li Shan, who had caught a butterfly, raised his hands. Li Yuanjia and Chai Zhewei shouted and jumped on Li Shan's body and climbed up.

"It's really shameless!" Li Shimin couldn't help but shake his head, "I heard Ling Gong said that after a heavy snowfall in winter, Huairen actually played with the children in the village by building blocks of snow."

"Hahaha, Chen Fu also said back then that they would look like dogs and tigers if they were piled up." Li Yuan also shook his head, "When we have children, it shouldn't be like this anymore, right?"

"It's hard to say. My father should be reprimanded. After all, he is an official of Zong Zhengqing."

"Forget it." Li Yuan felt a little uncomfortable, "Yesterday Huairen was still being pampered and coquettish in front of his father..."

"What?" Li Shimin, who knew it well, said slightly angrily: "As a minister, you actually..."

"That's all, that's all." Li Yuan snorted, "I just made a few jokes with Qinghe County, but who would have thought that Cui Qing would actually scold Huairen for having different intentions."

"Father, are you going to give me a beautiful woman?" Li Shimin looked strange. He had already heard Li Shan complain twice, and Cui Xin had pointed at that guy and scolded him several times.

"As a father, I have good intentions. Mrs. Cui is pregnant and has given me several beauties to accompany her... Mrs. Cui is so jealous!" Li Yuan said angrily: "Huairen actually said that he would let Pingyang judge the situation later!"

Li Shimin finally couldn't hold back his laughter, "Father, the third brother-in-law has never taken a concubine."

At this time, outside the window, he could faintly see someone calling from the palace in the distance. Li Shan turned around to look, asked a few words and then disappeared with the two children in hand.

"Take the young man of the Chai family to play wantonly, and you won't be able to cause trouble for him in Pingyang!" Li Yuan laughed and cursed a few times, but not long after, he saw Li Shan, who was still stained with grass blades, carrying a box into the back hall.

"Uncle." Li Shan put the box on the case and saluted, "Meet His Highness the King of Qin."

"Wrong, wrong." Li Shimin said with a smile: "If you call me uncle, why do you call him King of Qin?"

"Second brother." Li Shan changed his words and said, "I made some snacks to worship the moon tonight."

Li Yuan looked at the round pancake in the box curiously, "This is it?"

"My nephew calls it 'moon cake'." Li Shan took a piece and handed it to Li Yuan, "Uncle, try it. It's made with red bean filling."

Li Shimin took a piece and looked at it, "Is this Sesame's?"

"Yeah, there's writing on it."

Li Yuan also noticed that there was the word "red bean" on the mooncake. He looked at it for a while and took a bite. After a while, he smiled and said: "Huairen, Huairen, you actually know how to cook?"

"What Huairen has learned is mixed." Li Shimin was also speechless, "But in the kitchen..."

"So what about the kitchen?!" Li Shan rolled his eyes, "Tonight's dinner before the moon festival, I will personally take care of it!"

Li Yuan thought it was too sweet, so he put down the mooncake and said with a smile: "Then we'll wait for Huairen's feast."
