Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 282 The Living Funeral of Jiang Guogong's Mansion
When Li Chengqian's carriage arrived at Jiang Guogong's mansion, he saw the Chen family's second eldest, Chen Xuande, and third eldest, Chen Xiande, dressed in filial piety, standing in front of the gate to greet him, and bursts of Sanskrit sounds came from the courtyard.

Standing outside the door and watching the battle, outsiders must have thought that the Chen family was really having a funeral, but after seeing these two young masters, Li Chengqian was sure that there was something strange about it.

The reason is simple, after someone's son dies, his face doesn't show any sadness, unless it's not the real father and son, so Li Chengqian gave them a bad review in his heart for the poor performance of these two brothers.

"Mr. Chen, what's going on? Where is your father?" Chen Xuande's official position is the doctor of the Ministry of Water. I really don't know how this prime minister's son is messed up. He is in his 40s and is just a junior official from the fifth rank. .

"Oh, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, Chen Xuande, a member of the Ministry of Water Affairs, has seen His Highness, and I never expected that your father's funeral would have alarmed you and the two upstarts. This is really a big face of the Chen family. Hurry up, Your Highness, please come inside." .”

Chen Xuande didn't have any other skills like his old man, but his slick temper got the true inheritance of Chen Shuda. This guy is really a talent for working in the Ministry of Industry. It is very suitable for him to go to Honglu Temple to deal with those foreign envoys.

Seeing that the three princes didn't intend to go in, Chen Xuande took a few steps forward after pleading guilty, and whispered, "Your Highness, my father is waiting for you inside."

Alas, is this old guy going to act so recklessly when he reaches his destiny?After all, he was also a prime minister, don't you want a little bit of face?It's so unreliable.The helpless Li Chengqian could only walk towards the mansion under the guidance of the third child of the Chen family with full of doubts.

When passing by the yard, the monks and Taoist priests sitting on the left and right sides were chanting scriptures louder than anyone else, and the women and children of the Chen family in the main hall were also pretending to cry when there was thunder and no rain.The three of them who saw this scene instantly felt pain in their eggs. This was definitely the funniest funeral they had ever seen in their lives.

Hahaha... "His Royal Highness, don't be offended. If you don't use this method, the veteran wants to see you, the supervisor of the country, it will be like ascending to the sky." After finishing speaking, intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at Changsun Chong and Ma Zhou .Li Chengqian didn't understand what he meant, so he waved his hands to the two of them, signaling them to retreat with Chen Xiande.

"Chen Xiang, if you always want to see Gu, you can just come out of Chengqing Hall directly. Why do you have to do this? Could it be that the younger sister's shamelessness makes you always angry." In terms of respecting the elderly, Li Chengqian has always done the same thing. Yes, otherwise the old man's rudeness would not have been ignored.

Hehe, after a few dry laughs, Chen Shuda personally offered a cup of tea to Li Chengqian, and then said: "The old minister has to thank the princess for what your highness said, so that he can remember that evil animal, otherwise he Sooner or later, you will die on that mouth."

"As for why I made such a move, it's because it's too inconvenient for Chengqing Palace to speak, don't you think so?"

What the old man said is correct, inside and outside the Chengqing Palace are the emperor's confidantes, he doesn't care who the people inside are, they will tell the emperor everything that happened inside.That's why Li Chengqian wanted to reject Li Yuan's will and refute Wei Zheng's chapter in Chengqing Hall.

"Chen Xiang, what is it that makes you pay so much attention to self-destruction of your reputation?" The old man's trick is very good, at least he hides it from everyone's eyes, as long as he achieves his goal, sacrifice What's the deal with fame?

Cough, cough, cough, "The old minister heard that King Zhou was imprisoned, and at the same time rejected the emperor's release. The old minister is old, and I don't know that Wuchang will come to claim his life that day, so I only hope that the children and grandchildren will be under the protection of Your Majesty and you." Let's have a bowl of Ansheng's rice, would you like to see?"

Oh, Chen Shuda is old, but he has become a frightened bird. He moved Li Yuanfang by himself. What is he afraid of? Is it because of Chen Shaode's few words?Or is it because of that old man Li Yuan?

You must know that after the Xuanwu Gate, Li Yuan's confidants were strictly restricted, except for him who was still a servant at that time, and even when he was discussing meritorious deeds, he was even allowed to go on stage to announce the decree.

"Chen Xiang was joking. You are a veteran of the two dynasties, a hero in the founding of the country, and have a close personal relationship with my Li family. No matter how you look at it, the Chen family can pass on the title of Jiang Guogong." Although I don't understand what Chen Shuda said The real intention, but Li Chengqian still agreed.

After hearing Li Chengqian's promise, Chen Shuda smiled like a chrysanthemum: "Your Highness is really happy, so the old minister will not hide it. To say something disrespectful, the old minister believes that you have no intention of harming the Chen family.

But the old minister didn't believe His Majesty. One must know that there was a lot of festivals between Prince Qin's mansion and Zhang Jieyu back then. The old minister didn't want to be buried soon and end up in the same fate as Liu Wenjing.Of course, the origin of this has to start from the four years of Wude."

In the fourth year of Wude, Li Shimin, who was still the king of Qin at that time, conquered Luoyang. After countless bloody battles, he finally captured the city and destroyed the state of Zheng.In war, there must be some captured. Wang Shichong is always greedy for money, so this time Li Shimin seized countless gold, silver and jade wares.

After Li Yuan inquired, he immediately asked the concubines to choose their favorite things, but when they arrived, Li Shimin rejected Zhang Jieyu's concubines on the grounds that they were used as military supplies, and did not agree to arrange for their children to be officials in Luoyang.

Now, the stepmothers headed by Concubine Yin De and Zhang Jieyu were all holding grudges, and complained about King Qin by Li Yuan's pillow when they had nothing to do, and Li Shimin suffered a lot for this.

Later, when Li Shimin rewarded his generals with his military achievements, Li Shentong got a piece of good land, which happened to be valued by Zhang Jieyu's father.

So Zhang Jieyu went to Li Yuan to ask for it for his father, and Li Yuan, who was served comfortably, immediately wrote an edict asking Li Shimin to give up the land, but surprisingly, King Qin directly rejected the emperor's imperial edict.

Therefore, Zhang Jieyu, who had new and old hatreds, went into slander: "The concubine's father's land is given by the imperial edict, and the king seizes it from others."

As for men, the most important thing is to pay attention to the image of their own women. Li Yuan, the emperor, is naturally unavoidable, so people quickly spread the news that Li Shimin, Pei Ji and Chen Shuda planned to abolish him if the King of Qin did not obey.

But who knew that King Qin's bones were very hard, and he didn't care about the emperor's words of "my edict is not as good as your teaching evil?"

It made Li Yuan very shameless, but when he wanted to abolish Li Shimin, Fang and Du rescued their master on the grounds of military situation.

Afterwards, Li Yuan said in front of several of them: "Erjiu Dianbing was misunderstood by Confucian scholars, and it is no longer my old days." It is because of this sentence that Zhang Jieyu and Yin Defei were allowed to design the palace of the officials of the Qin Palace. Among them, the most obvious one is Yin Ashu beating Du Ruhui.

And Li Yuanfang was Zhang Jieyu's son, Chen Shuda was really afraid that the emperor would use the Chen family as an excuse to take revenge on Zhang Jieyu and others.You must know that the officials who were insulted back then can now live in eight houses, open government offices and build mansions. They will not persuade the emperor to make big things small. What is it to sacrifice a small Chen family in order to wash away their shame? Woolen cloth.

Once the emperor worked hard with them, the little Chen family would be reduced to ashes in an instant. This was what Chen Shuda was most worried about. .
After pondering for a while, Li Chengqian looked at Chen Shuda and said with a smile: "Chen Xiang, why do you want to go against the emperor's will?"

"Because this old minister is what His Majesty needs." After finishing speaking, he pushed the box on the table in front of Li Chengqian.
