Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 385 Discord

The cold wind swept across the entire Chang'an City.

After Cheng Yaojin and others left Qin Tian's mansion, they did not disperse, but went to Cheng Yaojin's mansion.

After arriving at Cheng Yaojin's mansion, Cheng Yaojin ordered people to prepare wine and food.

When half of the food and drink was eaten, Cheng Yaojin had a fight with Li Ji.

Soon, the people present were divided into two camps, Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda and others belonged to one camp, and Qin Shubao, Li Ji and others belonged to one camp.

The two sides fought in Cheng Yaojin's house, and Li Ji was even more careless, and Cheng Yaojin punched him so that his nose bleeds.

After seeing the blood on both sides, Li Ji left angrily.

Time passed quickly, and it was the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month.

In Chang'an City, under Pei Ji's persuasion, many of the Eastern Palace's cronies expressed their willingness to submit to Li Shimin. Many of the Eastern Palace's cronies who had absconded were either killed or surrendered. Xue Wanche and a few others were the only ones who hadn't been arrested yet.

The Ministry of Rites and the Clan's Mansion are preparing for Li Shimin's canonization of the crown prince. After the new year, the canonization will be formalized.

On this day, when Li Shimin was reviewing memorials in the side hall, a young eunuch came in with a food box.

"His Royal Highness."

Li Shimin raised his head, but then lowered his head to review the memorial. He has just become a prince, and there are many things that need to be familiarized with and dealt with.

"what's up?"

"His Royal Highness, today the stove sacrificed, and the slaves specially ordered some stove candy for you from Qin Tian's mansion."

"Zao Tang?" Li Shimin didn't know anything about Zao Tang. During this period of time, he hadn't even been out of the palace, and what he heard and saw were all important affairs of the court. He had no time to care about small things like Zao Tang.

The eunuch smiled: "Yes, stove candy, this is a new delicacy invented by Qin Tian, ​​and there is a story about using this stove candy to sweeten the mouth of the Stove Lord. Say good things to the mortal world, so that the country and the people of the mortal world will live in peace..."

The little eunuch told the story about Zao Tang, of course he had his own changes, and the changes he made were exactly in line with Li Shimin's wishes.

Hearing that the stove candy is still a good omen, Li Shimin immediately said, "Open it, let me taste it."

Looking at the stove candy covered with sesame seeds makes people appetite greatly. Li Shimin took out one and tasted it. It was very fragrant and sweet, and it tasted particularly crispy.

"Delicious……"

Li Shimin seldom eats such a sweet thing, so he finally gave up after eating a few with such a face.

"This Qin Tian doesn't do his job all day long. I'm so busy that he still has time to make this thing." After eating the stove candy, Li Shimin turned his face and turned his back on him.

But the eunuch said hastily: "Your Majesty, Mr. Qin has not been free these few days. It can even be said that he is worried about him."

Hearing this, Li Shimin was a little puzzled: "He is not busy with government affairs all day, so what can he worry about?"

The eunuch said: "The Holy Majesty is in the palace, so he may not be clear about the outside affairs. A few days ago, Duke Lu and British Duke came to plead for Wei Zheng?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin's expression was slightly condensed, but the little eunuch didn't seem to notice, and continued: "Li Ji wanted to use credit for Wei Zheng's life, but Cheng Yaojin didn't want to, so he started fighting after returning, and Li Ji's nose They were all beaten crookedly, and now they are recuperating at the mansion, "

Hearing that these people in Wagang Village had conflicts, Li Shimin was suddenly relieved, but then he was a little curious: "What does this have to do with Qin Tian?"

"Of course it has something to do with it. People like Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda don't want to give up credit, but people like Li Ji and Qin Shubao value friendship and are willing to trade credit for Wei Zheng's life. As a result, a few people got into a fight, and Qin Tian was caught between them. Among a group of people, it is very difficult."

After the little eunuch finished speaking, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief. Wagangzhai was divided into several camps. If they had grievances like this, they would not be able to form a single force.

And this also made Li Shimin feel that there is no long-term brotherhood. After a long time, it still depends on the interests. For example, Cheng Yaojin is very greedy for money and credit. Is it possible that you don't let him take credit?
Thinking of this, Li Shimin nodded: "Well, tell Qin Shubao and Li Ji to wait for me at the Ministry of Punishment. By the way, call that Qin Tian again."

Li Shimin decided to consider the issue of Wei Zheng's life and death. If he could accept Wei Zheng for his own use, it would be beneficial to him. After all, Wei Zheng is a man of great talent.

And if he really wanted to let Wei Zheng go, he would also need to let people like Qin Shubao and Li Ji see this kindness, so that he could win people's hearts.
-
In front of the criminal department, the cold wind howled.

When Li Shimin came, people like Qin Shubao and Cheng Yaojin had already arrived, but their positions were very interesting.

Li Ji, Qin Shubao and others stood aside, Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda stood aside, the two groups of people didn't look at each other, if they really looked at each other suddenly, they couldn't help but snort.

Qin Tian stood in the middle, and was about to chat with Cheng Yaojin when he was suddenly scolded by Qin Shubao: "Come here?"

As Qin Shubao's adoptive son, Qin Tian couldn't listen, he smiled wryly and was about to go there, when he was suddenly caught by Cheng Yaojin.

Qin Tian was caught in the middle, in a dilemma. Fortunately, Li Shimin came, otherwise he might not know how long he would suffer.

"His Royal Highness..." After seeing Li Shimin, Qin Tian immediately shouted loudly, at this moment, Cheng Yaojin finally let him go, and Qin Tian rushed towards Li Shimin as if seeing a savior.

"I haven't seen His Highness the Crown Prince for a few days, I really want to die His Highness the Crown Prince..."

Just as Qin Tian was about to rush over, Li Shimin suddenly dodged and dodged. Qin Tian jumped into the air, showing a little sad expression, but he didn't dare to do this again, so he could only follow behind Li Shimin, which could be regarded as using Li Shimin's body to protect himself.

"His Royal Highness..."

"His Royal Highness..."

The two groups of people saluted at the same time, Li Shimin nodded, and then looked at Li Ji. Li Shimin was a little embarrassed by Li Shimin's look. He wanted to turn his head away, but felt that it was not polite, so he could only lower his neck in the end.

"What's up with the Duke's nose?"

Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Ji immediately, with complicated eyes, Li Ji smiled wryly: "That's right, it was snowing a few days ago, and one accidentally fell down and touched his nose, which made His Royal Highness worry."

Li Ji made an excuse, but as soon as he finished speaking, someone broke the stage.

"What fell down? It was obviously beaten by Cheng Yaojin, a ruthless person. If you hadn't stopped me, I would have beaten you back..."

"Bah, who are you, call back and try if you have the ability..." Cheng Yaojin was about to rush over immediately, but was stopped by someone.

In front of the entire criminal department, it seemed that there was going to be another commotion.

"enough……"
