Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 139 Li Yuan's Appeasement

The summer in Chang'an is getting hotter and hotter.

Li Yuan still had that nightmare every night, so tired that he looked much thinner.

He has not been to court for two days.

East Palace.

Prince Li Jiancheng was very satisfied with the result. Although he couldn't bear to do it himself, as long as his father's health was getting worse, it would be a good thing for him.

This made him feel at ease.

However, when Li Jiancheng was very satisfied with the situation and was watching the changes in the East Palace, Li Shimin was gloomy at the Qin Palace.

"Auxiliary machine, father has been sleeping badly, and he hasn't gone to court for two days now, maybe this is not a good sign?" Although Li Shimin said it calmly, Changsun Wuji could hear his anxiety.

Today, Li Jiancheng's position as the crown prince is very stable, and many civil servants and military generals in the capital have attached themselves to him, and his influence is very strong.

If Li Yuan fell ill suddenly, or even passed away, Li Jiancheng's ascension to the throne would be very smooth. At that time, even if Qin Wang Li Shimin arranged the situation outside the capital, it would not be of much help.

If you want to compete for the throne, you can't wait for Li Yuan's death, you have to wait for him to be in power, even if he wants to die, you have to wait for the prince's power to become weak.

But now they are not satisfied with either of the two situations.

"His Royal Highness, the most urgent thing is to find a way to cure the insomnia of the Holy Majesty. As long as the Majesty's illness is cured, we still have a chance."

Undoubtedly, Changsun Wuji knew Li Shimin the best, so he said it straight away. Li Shimin looked up at Changsun Wuji, then frowned, and said, "But this insomnia, I'm afraid it won't be cured. In my father's heart , I don’t know what’s on my mind.”

Changsun Wuji pondered for a moment: "His Royal Highness King Qin hasn't seen His Majesty for a few days, right?"

"I haven't seen him since that day, maybe four days."

"Don't you think that as a son of man, it's unreasonable not to see your father for four days?"

Changsun Wuji's tone was slightly cold, but Li Shimin's expression changed slightly, and he continued: "The auxiliary machine is right, this king will enter the palace right now."

The hot weather seems to make people dehydrated at any time.

Li Shimin entered the palace against the scorching sun.

When they came to Li Yuan's bedroom, the whole bedroom was surprisingly quiet, except for a little maid standing outside waiting for orders at any time, there was no one else.

Li Yuan was lying on the bed, his eyes were bloodshot, he was extremely tired, and he looked much older.

When Li Shimin saw Li Yuan, he suddenly cried and rushed over: "Father, father, my son is not filial, my son is not filial, my father is suffering here, but my son is not serving you, my son is not filial..."

Li Shimin cried with snot and tears, and Li Yuan's eyes hurt, but he opened them slightly and glanced at Li Shimin. Looking at this crying son, Li Yuan's heart suddenly felt unbearable.

They are all my sons, they are all my darlings, so why should I favor one over another?
"Shimin is here?" Li Yuan's voice was hoarse and tired.

Li Shimin nodded, grabbed Li Yuan's hand and said, "Father, my son is here, my son is here, why did you become like this, father, did you ask the imperial doctor to prescribe medicine?"

Li Yuan closed his eyes again.

"I've been to the imperial doctor, and I've also prescribed some medicine for nourishing the mind, but it's useless."

His illness lies in his heart, so what's the use of medicine for rejuvenating his mind?

When Li Shimin heard this, he became anxious immediately, and said: "Since the imperial doctor's medicine is useless, why doesn't the father ask for a famous doctor to see it? My son will go and tell the world, and ask for the cure for the insomniac for the father."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he kowtowed to Li Yuan three times, then turned and left.

The purpose of his visit today is firstly to see Li Yuan's situation, and secondly to see if there is any way to save him. Since the imperial doctor is not good enough, he will search all over the Tang Dynasty and the whole world to find a god who can save Li Yuan. medicine.

Li Shimin left, and after lying on the bed for a long time, Li Yuan suddenly sighed.

"Pass down the order to reward King Qin with a thousand acres of land and two hundred slaves..."
-
After Li Shimin left the palace, he returned directly to Prince Qin's mansion.

When he came back, his expression was serious.

Princess Changsun felt a little nervous when she saw him like this, and asked, "But father's condition hasn't improved?"

Princess Changsun is slightly plump. Although she is not particularly stunning, her temperament is unmatched by other women.

She is gentle and virtuous, looking at Li Shimin with some eagerness in her eyes.

She naturally understood why Li Shimin was worried, but for her, she had to show concern for today's world.

Li Shimin glanced at his concubine and sighed: "Father's condition looks very serious."

Things were much worse than Li Shimin imagined, Li Yuan's health was very poor, and if this continues, Li Yuan may not last long.

Just imagine, can a person who sleeps very little get better?
Princess Changsun saw Li Shimin like this, put her hand on his shoulder, and said: "My lord, don't worry, my father is auspicious, he will be fine."

Li Shimin nodded: "I have sent people from the auxiliary machine to collect prescriptions that can cure insomnia throughout the Tang Dynasty, and there must be results soon."

While the two were talking, someone came from the palace and brought Li Yuan's reward to Li Shimin. Li Shimin's expression changed slightly when he saw this, it was fine, why did his father suddenly reward him?
Not only is there a maidservant in the land, but she even allowed herself to hold an important position in the court. What does his father mean by this?
Li Shimin frowned in thought, and Princess Changsun said: "Is it because the father thinks of your filial piety and wants to reuse the prince again?"

A slight smile appeared on the corner of Li Shimin's mouth. It's not true that his father wants to reuse him. What his father wants now is to maintain the stability of the court so that the crown prince can ascend the throne smoothly, and he is undoubtedly the biggest threat.

But at the corner of his mouth for a while, his father and the prince pushed him too much. His father was worried, worried that he would take a risk, so he wanted to comfort himself.

This is similar to slapping and giving a sweet date. All he wants is to be obedient and obedient.

Li Shimin suddenly felt aggrieved. He is also a son. Why did his father treat him like this? It seems to be a reward, but in fact it is just to protect the prince and protect the prince.

However, although Li Shimin understood this, he didn't have the slightest intention to point it out. After glancing at his princess, he smiled: "Maybe, let the auxiliary machine speed up the search for a cure for insomnia, even if it's running all over the Tang Dynasty. It must be found too."

At this time, Li Shimin absolutely did not allow his plan to go wrong. Before he was absolutely sure, his father could not die.
