Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 41

It can be said that Li Shimin started his career by rebellion. First, he followed Li Yuan to rebel against Emperor Sui Yang, and then he rebelled against his own father Li Yuan.

So, to be honest, Lao Li is also a little worried that others will rebel against him.

At this time, Gao Ming told him that there was a way to prevent others from rebelling against him, and Lao Li was immediately moved.

Although he only memorized a few simple words of "faith" and "Ideological and Political Department" from the beginning to the end, this did not prevent him from becoming very interested in this idea.

"Gao Ming, do you mean that as long as I allow you to set up that so-called 'Ideological and Political Department', you will have a way to prevent people from rebelling against me?"

Gao Ming nodded immediately.

"That's right, but it's not 'can't rebel', but 'won't rebel'!"

Seeing Gao Ming's unhesitating look, Li Shimin laughed immediately.

"Well, how many people do you want?"

Hearing that Li Shimin agreed so readily, Gao Ming felt a little surprised, but he reacted quickly, and after thinking about it for a while, he stretched out two fingers towards Li Shimin.

Seeing Gao Ming's actions, Li Shimin nodded again.

"2000 people? Okay, I agree!"

As soon as his words fell, Gao Ming waved his hands dumbfounded.

"No, no, no...not 2000 people, but 200 people!"

Now it was Li Shimin's turn to be surprised, looking at Gao Ming standing on him, Li Shimin frowned again.

"What can 200 people do?"

Seeing Li Shimin's disapproval, Gao Ming was a little bit dumbfounded again.

"Father, I set up this ideological and political department to do ideological work for the soldiers, not to fight. 200 people are enough. Besides, Father, you were able to defeat Wang Shichong's [-] army with a thousand Xuanjia soldiers. This shows that sometimes quantity is not everything!"

Gao Ming flattered Li Shimin without saying a word, which immediately made Li Shimin happy.

"Well, Gao Ming, what you said is very reasonable. Well, 200 people should be 200 people. I will issue a decree to the Ministry of Education."

After speaking, Li Shimin, who was in a good mood, immediately picked up the brush and began to write. Seeing this scene, Gao Ming immediately saluted him.

"Thank you for your support, my son, I will definitely fulfill my mission!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin, who was writing, didn't raise his head.

"Well, if you don't do it, I'll see if I can beat you hard!"

"..."

If you smoke, you will know it!Even the native dialect has come out, can you still have fun?

Gao Ming fell silent, Li Shimin ignored him, just immersed himself in writing, and handed the written edict to the eunuch outside the door after finishing, and then nodded to Gao Ming.

"Okay, I will mention this matter when I go to court tomorrow, and then the ideological and political things you mentioned will belong to the Ministry of War!"

Speaking of this, Li Shimin saw that Gao Ming was hesitant to speak, and immediately snorted again.

"Hmph, I know what you're thinking. I've given you two Zhenwei school lieutenants. They are Wu San officials from the sixth rank. Are you satisfied now?"

When Gao Ming heard it, he was immediately happy.

"Satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied, thank you, Father, hehehehe!"

There are [-] grades of official positions in the Tang Dynasty. From the sixth rank, it is considered to be the upper middle. What is Gao Ming not satisfied with?
Seeing the smiling Gao Ming, Li Shimin was immediately happy, but he didn't show it, instead he gave Gao Ming a glare.

"Okay, it's nothing to do with you, go back, remember to go to the morning court tomorrow!"

When Gao Ming heard this, his smile immediately froze.

"Huh? Morning morning?"

The early courts of the Tang Dynasty had to go before dawn, which was simply unbearable for Gao Ming who insisted on "sleep until he wakes up naturally".

His face immediately fell down.

"Father, my son's legs and feet are not good, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient to go to court..."

Seeing the reluctance on Gao Ming's face, Li Shimin waved at him before he could speak.

"Don't come here with me. A few days ago, when you took people to dig my lotus roots in Taiye Pond, didn't you have a great time running? Why didn't you see that your legs and feet were inconvenient then?"

"But……"

Seeing what Gao Ming was going to say, Li Shimin immediately became impatient.

"Nothing but, as a prince, you didn't even go to the morning court. What do you say? Besides, didn't I give you a walking chariot? Well, there is no need to talk about this matter. I have made up my mind. You can step back !"

Seeing Li Shimin's firm attitude, Gao Ming could only sigh.

"Yes, my son is leaving!"

Seeing Gao Ming walk out of the imperial study listlessly, Li Shimin snorted coldly.

"Hmph, this kid just needs to be cleaned up!"

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin picked up a piece of rice paper on the table, and a smile appeared on his face again.

"I love the lotus that comes out of mud but not stained, clean and clear but not demonic, straight in the middle and straight in the outside, not spreading or branching, fragrant far away but clear, graceful and clean, can be seen from a distance but not played with..."

While Li Shimin was admiring "Ai Lian Shuo", Gao Ming had already returned to the East Palace.

Of course, the eunuchs sent by Li Shimin also followed, and took away more than a dozen barrels of bean sprouts from Gao Ming's warehouse.

It was a really bad day for Gao Ming.

But Gao Ming is also a person who knows how to adjust his mood. After the eunuchs left, he asked people to prepare food and drink, and then asked Su Wan'er and the others to perform Hu Xuanwu for him.

There is no way, Datang has no TV, no computer, no Internet, and no decent entertainment facilities. Fortunately, there are many beauties in the East Palace, so you can have fun watching singing and dancing performances.

With the sound of chime bells and other musical instruments, Su Wan'er in a long skirt also began to dance lightly. Gao Ming smiled and lay sideways in Shi Shu's arms, and she still fed a piece of preserved fruit into his mouth, while Shi Jian Then with a smile on his face, he started to beat his legs.

Gao Ming suddenly felt that he was going to heaven.

Of course, this is just Gao Ming's illusion, he can't go to heaven, he can only go to court.

His arms were always unable to twist his thighs, so the next day, before dawn, Gao Ming set off on a walking chariot. Unfortunately, he still failed to defeat the sleepy bug, and just arrived at the entrance of the main hall, he sat on the chariot and fell asleep. caught.

At this time, the morning court has not yet started, even the gates of the city have not yet opened, all civil and military officials are still waiting outside the gates, only the princes Gao Ming and the others arrived at this time.

As the crown prince, Gao Ming still had some power and authority. Seeing him sleeping soundly on the chariot, no one dared to disturb him.

After a while, Li Zhi saw that Gao Ming hadn't woken up yet, so he gritted his teeth and walked over.

"Brother Huang, Brother Huang, wake up, you are about to go to court!"

"Ok?"

Hearing Li Zhi's voice, Gao Ming frowned, and opened his eyes a little. After seeing Li Zhi's face clearly, he got up, stretched his waist and yawned.

"Well... it's a pheasant slave, when did you come?"

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, Li Zhi suddenly showed a wry smile.

"It's been a while, by the way, why did the emperor suddenly come to court today?"

Hearing his words, Gao Ming suddenly sighed.

"Your father asked me to come."

"..."

Li Zhi was dumbfounded.
