Chapter 207
"The vision of the white rainbow penetrating the sun should be in the southeast, and my son is in the middle of the pass. What does it have to do with him? Is Yu Qing's words too far-fetched?" Li Shimin stared at Yu Zhining and asked dissatisfied.

Regarding Li Shimin's reaction, Yu Zhining had expected it for a long time. Li Ke had reached the age of release. If Li Shimin hadn't protected him, he would have been released like other clan children. How could it have been delayed until today? Ke's release was not out of Zhining's expectation.

Yu Zhining said: "Yangzhou is the most important town in the southeast. One place is the safety of the southeast half of our Tang Dynasty. Since the fourth year of Zhenguan, when His Highness was appointed the governor of Yangzhou, he has not yet been appointed as the governor of Yangzhou. The local governor of Yangzhou The vacancy of officials is bound to be detrimental to the stability of the prefectures and counties, and what the vision corresponds to may not be Yangzhou."

Yangzhou is located in Huainan, and its wealth is well known throughout the world, not even under the two capitals. Otherwise, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty would not have lingered in Yangzhou and refused to return to Beijing, so that Guanzhong fell and the world was lost.Therefore, Yu Zhining's statement that Yangzhou City is related to the stability of the southeast half of the country is not false.

But Yangzhou belongs to Yangzhou, and the sky belongs to Tianxiang. What does this have to do with Li Ke? Li Shimin asked: "I know the importance of Yangzhou, but how can the white rainbow go through the sun and have nothing to do with my son?"

Yu Zhining said: "Your Majesty, according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, the prince grows up and should be an official in a foreign country. The king of Chu has already grown his hair, but he is still in Chang'an. It is inconsistent with the reason. The white rainbow shines through the sun. Perhaps it was a warning from the heavens to advise His Majesty to order the King of Chu to become a vassal. The King of Chu is an outstanding man in the world, a noble man in the sky, maybe once the King of Chu goes, the disaster in the southeast will be avoided."

Yu Zhining first followed the law and talked about the astronomy, and then praised Li Ke generously, all in order to persuade Li Shimin to release Li Ke.

As for the whole court, there were not a few people who hoped that the princes would be released. Some had selfish intentions, and some had public intentions for the country. But no matter what the intention was, when Yu Zhining's words came out, the hall suddenly became lively.

"I report to Your Majesty, I think Yu Shilang's words are very true. It is not good for the country if the prince is an adult and does not let go. I hope Your Majesty will think carefully." Yu Zhining finished speaking, and Wei Zheng, the new servant, stepped out of the line and said to him Li Shimin said.

Li Shimin watched Wei Zheng come out, and couldn't help frowning.

Although Yu Zhining was upright, he wasn't stubborn, and it didn't make sense, but Wei Zheng was a stubborn ass. Since he came out to speak, he was bound to pursue it to the end.

However, the real headache for Li Shimin was not limited to this. Among the ministers, Wei Zheng beat his head. As soon as Wei Zheng finished speaking, several people stood up from the hall and said in unison: "The prince is released as an adult. As a rule, I hope His Majesty will take good advice."

As everyone said, Li Shimin's face unconsciously became ugly.

Li Shimin said displeasedly: "My son is only fifteen years old, what does the vision of heaven have to do with my son, do you have to force my father and son from the heavenly family to separate and not see each other?"

Li Shimin's words were already angry, if it was someone else, he should have been cautious, but Wei Zheng didn't realize Li Shimin's dissatisfaction.

Wei Zhengdao: "Although the King of Chu and His Majesty are father and son, they are also monarchs and ministers. The so-called rulers of heaven and earth are relatives and teachers. Before a ruler is a relative, the king and ministers first, and then father and son. Since the King of Chu is a minister of Tang Dynasty, he should obey his orders."

It is indeed the court's custom for princes to leave the capital when they become adults. Although Li Ke is only 15 years old, he is already an official right Xiaowei, who manages politics every day. Given Li Ke's current situation, it is really unreasonable to force him to stay in the capital.

In the past, people would often advise Li Shimin and ask the prince to let him go, but Li Shimin kept silent, but now Yu Zhining used the celestial phenomenon of the white rainbow to make them bring up the old matter again, and with the help of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, even if Li Shimin didn't It is difficult to protect Li Ke even if Li Ke leaves Beijing.

Li Shimin had no choice but to say angrily: "What do you mean by accepting loyal words? In the ninth year of Wude, the Turks broke through the pass and the soldiers attacked the Wei River. If the king of Chu hadn't invited him to go north as a hostage at that time, how could there be today's Tang Dynasty, and today's ministers. Today All the ministers forced the King of Chu out of the capital above the main hall, but did not think about the merits of the King of Chu, is this the way to be a minister?"

As far as Li Shimin is concerned, Li Ke is a minister, but as far as Li Ke is concerned, Wei Zheng, Yu Zhining and others are also ministers.

Wei Zheng is upright, but he is not a troublemaker, Li Shimin's words made him stunned.

Li Ke is different from ordinary princes. He has meritorious deeds since he was young, and he has given life to millions of people in Guanzhong. Wei Zheng would never dare to obliterate these credits, and he didn't know how to reply for a while. .

But Wei Zheng is a stubborn donkey. Although he didn't know how to respond to Li Shimin's words, since it was something he decided on, he would not back down. Wei Zheng stood in the hall, although he had nothing to say, but his face was blushing. Not half a step back.

Li Ke on the side looked at the monarchs and ministers in the hall, and he already had speculations in his mind.

Today's situation, although the princelings took advantage of the vision of the white rainbow penetrating the sun to make trouble, but this matter is definitely not a temporary idea of ​​Yu Zhining, it must be the result of long-term consideration, the so-called white rainbow penetrating the sun is just a pretext they borrowed.

Even if there is no Baihong Guanri today, there will be other things. If they want to make trouble, there are so many opportunities.

As for Chang'an, Li Ke didn't have to stay.

When Li Ke heard Ashina Yun's words outside the Chunming Gate, Li Ke had already moved his mind to leave the capital. Can not accept.

It's just that Li Ke knows that being forced to leave Beijing is two completely different concepts from voluntarily leaving Beijing, and he just wanted to give Li Shimin this feeling. He, Li Ke, was forced to leave Beijing by these ministers who were friendly with the prince. .

When the ministers were arguing with Li Shimin, Li Ke did not come out, but watched the excitement calmly from the sidelines.

When the situation in the hall reached a stalemate, Li Ke knew that it was time for him to step forward.

Li Ke suddenly came out and said: "I would like to report to my father, today's affairs are all caused by my son, and my son will never dare to make my father difficult. I ask my father to let me go, and I hope my father will give me permission."

As soon as Li Kezhi's words came out, Li Shimin was surprised for a while, and then a trace of warmth flashed in his eyes.

Since ancient times, only Chang'an has been the most prosperous place, and all the princes of the Tang Dynasty want to stay in Chang'an to enjoy themselves, but Li Ke alone invited him out of Beijing.

But at this moment, Li Shimin looked at Li Ke's slumped face, which is what he should look like if he voluntarily left the capital. of.

What a child of pure filial piety.

In the ninth year of Wude, Li Ke asked himself to be a hostage, but now seven years have passed, and Li Ke is still like this. From the beginning to the end, Li Ke has been thinking about him as his father.

Li Shimin looked down at Li Ke, and couldn't bear to ask: "Ke'er, once Bai Hong Guanri said, it has nothing to do with you, so you don't have to take it on yourself."

Li Ke raised his head and glanced at Li Shimin. Although there was a bit of grievance in his eyes, he still forced a smile and said: "I have heard about the beautiful scenery of Yangzhou, and I have long wanted to go to see it. It is rare to have such a good opportunity today. I also hope that my father will take a look." Grace."
