Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 5

When Li Shimin came to the East Palace, he didn't see Gao Ming, but he was not in a hurry, neither went back to the Forbidden Garden nor sent people to find Gao Ming, but walked into the study of the East Palace, and drank tea while reading.

It can be seen that he is in a good mood.

Of course Gao Ming didn't know that Li Shimin had gone to the East Palace, and at this time he was bringing Su Wan'er to burn incense in the Taimiao.

Looking at Li Yuan's memorial tablet above, Gao Ming's expression was very respectful.

But unfortunately, the thoughts in his heart were completely inconsistent with his expression.

"Li Yuan, you are lucky to have a grandson like me, so just have fun!"

After burning incense to Li Yuan, Gao Ming also burned a stick of incense to Empress Changsun, but this time his respect was not feigned.

Without Empress Changsun, Li Shimin's world would not be so easy to sit on. And most importantly, it is precisely because Li Chengqian is the son of Empress Changsun that Li Shimin loves his house and Wu Xia, so he tolerates him in every possible way.

It can be said that Empress Changsun is not only a good queen, but also a good mother, so looking at the tablet of Empress Changsun above, Gao Ming secretly sighed in his heart.

"Hey, I said cheap old lady, you just have a bad life. If I could have come a few years earlier, maybe I can save you and let you live a few more years."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming shook his head immediately, because he also found that his idea was a bit unrealistic.

As the saying goes, it is called "knowledge is better than mother". Gao Ming knows very well that if the eldest grandson empress is alive, with her intelligence, she will definitely find that something is wrong with her.

But Li Shimin was different. He had been estranged from Li Chengqian for nearly ten years. After such a long period of time, he knew very little about Li Chengqian's situation.

Under such circumstances, it can be said that it is very easy for Gao Ming to want Li Daitao to stiffen.

After burning the incense, Gao Ming didn't go back to the East Palace immediately, but walked around the palace with his arms around Su Wan'er's waist.

From Su Wan'er's point of view, Gao Ming did this as a sign of loving her, so she was very happy. For Gao Ming, although his legs and feet were a bit inconvenient, it was quite enjoyable to be able to walk around with his arms around the beautiful woman.

And most importantly, he must get familiar with Chang'an's imperial palace terrain as soon as possible.

Chang'an's imperial palace was called Daxing Palace in the Sui Dynasty, and it was renamed Taiji Palace after Li Yuan established the Tang Dynasty.

The Tai Chi Palace is very large, the distance from east to west to north to south exceeds 1000 meters, and the area covers an area of ​​more than 900 square meters. Living in such a large imperial city, if you are not familiar with the terrain, you will definitely get lost.

However, Gao Ming also knew that familiarity with the terrain should not be rushed, so after the two wandered around the imperial city for a while, he took Su Wan'er back to the East Palace.

After returning to the East Palace, Gao Ming went directly into the Imperial Study Room, intending to see what Li Chengqian usually reads, even if he couldn't understand it, knowing something is better than knowing nothing.

But when Gao Ming pushed open the door of the imperial study room, he was immediately stunned, because he found that there was a person in the imperial study room!

Looking at the man who was sitting in his study and drinking tea leisurely, Gao Ming frowned suddenly.

"Who is he?"

One must know that his current status is the prince of the Tang Dynasty. Can he enter the study of the prince casually?
The identity of this person is not simple!
While Gao Ming was thinking, Li Shimin spoke.

"Gao Ming is back? Has your homework been neglected these days?"

Hearing his words, Gao Ming was taken aback for a moment, and his heart beat faster.

"That's how he knows I'm Gao Ming?"

But he quickly realized that this man should be called Li Chengqian, because the ancients had characters in addition to their names, and Li Chengqian's character was called Gao Ming!
Looking at Li Shimin who was sitting at the desk, Gao Ming's mind began to think quickly.

"He not only dared to sit in Li Chengqian's study, but also asked me about my homework as soon as he opened his mouth. It seems that he should be Li Chengqian's teacher. Li Chengqian should have four teachers, namely Wei Zheng, Yu Zhining, Kong Yingda and Zhang Xuansu. Come on, I have to use the method of elimination!"

Thinking of this, Gao Ming's eyes narrowed immediately.

"Wei Zheng should be sick at home at this time, rule it out; Kong Yingda is relatively old, almost 70 years old, certainly not, rule it out; and Zhang Xuansu is an admonishing minister, it is impossible to come to ask me about my homework, rule it out; then the rest This person should be Yu Zhining!"

After thinking about this, Gao Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and then cupped his hands towards Li Shimin.

"I've been sick these days, so... please forgive me, Master Yu!"

As soon as Gao Ming said this, Li Shimin was stunned.

"You call me Teacher Yu?"

Seeing the astonishment on Li Shimin's face, Gao Ming's heart trembled suddenly.

"Did I call it wrong? Could Li Chengqian be called Mr. Yu Zhining or Master? No, I have to get rid of this lie!"

Thinking of this, Gao Ming smiled at Li Shimin.

"Teacher, it is also necessary to preach and teach karma to solve confusion. Mr. Yu has taught me well, so he naturally deserves my name as a teacher!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin opened his mouth wide.

"It turns out that this kid thought of me as Yu Zhining. No wonder this kid suddenly changed. He had forgotten all about the past. No, I have to test him again to see if this kid really forgot. Still pretending to be stupid!"

Thinking of this, Li Shimin nodded immediately.

"What a 'teacher, it's also good to teach and solve puzzles', then I'll ask you another question, if you answer to my satisfaction, I won't bother with you as a teacher anymore."

As soon as Gao Ming heard his words, he quickly bowed to him and saluted.

"Excuse me, Master Yu!"

Hearing his words, Li Shimin nodded again.

"Well, then listen carefully, the problem for the teacher is, if the Emperor Taishang and Prince Yin are both alive at this time, and your father wants to do the Xuanwumen thing again, what will you do?"

As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, Gao Ming couldn't help but gasped.

"hiss……"

The Supreme Emperor in Li Shimin's mouth naturally refers to Li Yuan, while the Yin Prince refers to Li Jiancheng. The most important thing is that it involves rebellion. Although Gao Ming is not a native of the Tang Dynasty, it does not mean that he is stupid. topic of discussion.

So after he heard Li Shimin's question, he immediately turned around and ran to the door, then opened the door and stretched out his head to look around, making sure that there was no one around and ran back, then made a silent gesture towards Li Shimin.

"Hush...Old Yu, did you forget to take your medicine when you went out? Can you talk about things like Xuanwumen by the way?"

Seeing Gao Ming's nervous look, Li Shimin couldn't help laughing immediately.

"Why can't you tell?"

Seeing that Li Shimin was still "obsessed with obsession", Gao Ming immediately slapped his thigh.

"Old Yu, are you really stupid or fake stupid? Let me tell you based on our years of mentoring and apprenticeship, don't mention the matter of Xuanwumen after that. Dragons have reverse scales, and those who touch them will die. This Xuanwumen is The reverse scale of my old Li!"

When Li Shimin heard the words "Dragon has reverse scales, whoever touches them will die", his eyes lit up immediately, and the smile on his face became brighter.

"I, Yu Zhining, have gone through two dynasties and have benefited the country. Your Majesty will not kill me!"

Seeing his proud look, Gao Ming snorted coldly.

"Hmph, why are you so naive at such an age? Let me tell you, my old Li is a ruthless man with a long history!"

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, the corners of Li Shimin's mouth twitched twice.

Ruthless?And is he a ruthless person with a long history?
"Then tell me, how ruthless is your old Li?"

Seeing Li Shimin's "frightened" expression, Gao Ming immediately felt even more proud.

"Hmph, let me tell you, if you let him know that you are talking about Xuanwumen behind your back, you will be pushed to the market outside Xuanwumen and beheaded. After beheading you, your son will be beheaded. , and then send your daughter-in-law to the harem to sleep with her, and finally send your daughter-in-law to the East Palace to let me sleep, how about it? Do you think he is ruthless?"

After listening to Gao Ming's words, Li Shimin's expression was completely dull, and it took a long time to squeeze out a word from between his teeth.

"ruthless!"
