Datang: Starting from a fortune-telling stall, Wu Zetian was suddenly abducted

Chapter 44 Li Chengqian seeks hexagram

Empress Changsun was a little agitated. After coughing twice, she refuted Li Shimin:

"If these evil-doing people are allowed to continue harming their neighbors, will those innocent people spread their grievances on my concubines?"

"Second brother, if God receives these grievances, will it reduce my status or bring disaster to my concubine?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin was instantly speechless.

He could not care about the reaction of the people, the reaction of the ministers, and even more so the reaction of the people in the world.

But the only thing he couldn't ignore was the woman in front of him who lived and died with him.

After thinking for a moment, he sighed and said, "I didn't think about it."

"Come here, if you take back the decree issued by the previous morning, you will say that I did not think it through properly."

After finishing the explanation, he gently took Empress Changsun's hand and said: "Guanyin Maid, you are right, I will listen to you, okay?"

Li Chengqian also learned about this very quickly, so he entered the palace angrily to seek explanation from his mother. However, he was scolded by Empress Changsun and walked out of the palace with a frown on his face.

He stayed at the palace gate for a long time, and after thinking about it, he went to his uncle Changsun Wuji's mansion, hoping to find him some ideas.

Changsun Wuji also understands his younger sister's temperament best. Once Changsun Wugou makes up his mind, even ten bulls will not be able to pull him back.

However, whether it was from the perspective of palace marriage or from his perspective as an elder brother, he would never sit idly by and ignore this matter.

Extending along the idea of ​​amnesty for the world, he thought of a way not long after.

After he explained this idea to Li Chengqian in detail, Li Chengqian's eyes lit up and he immediately followed what he said and contacted other ministers.

Three days later, in the court.

Li Daliang, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, came out and said, "Your Majesty, I have a plan to report."

"In the past dynasty, wars were raging everywhere. Taoist temples all over the country were destroyed by war or were in ruins."

"Now that the world is under great rule, I sincerely request your Majesty to repair the Taoist temple again..."

"I can also pray for the Queen."

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers looked astonished. The key to this memorial lies in the last step.

After Li Daliang finished speaking, Wei Zheng also left the shift, and said with a slightly solemn expression:
"Your Majesty, I think this is feasible. Although the repair of the Taoist temple requires a lot of money and food, it is a more appropriate move than amnesty to the world."

"Although I am praying for the queen, my queen is in good health and the harem will be safe."

"It is said that everything will be prosperous when the family is harmonious. Your Majesty can certainly focus on handling world affairs."

This logic is perfectly fine!
Moreover, Wei Zheng is standing at a different height, and his analysis is indeed very reasonable.

Immediately, a minister stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I also think it is feasible."

"My minister seconded the proposal."

"The minister also agrees."

All civil and military officials voted unanimously.

But when he saw Li Shimin sitting on the dragon chair, he showed a wry smile and said, "My dear friends, you are interested."

"It's just that I have to go back and discuss this with the Queen again."

Hearing Li Shimin's words, everyone remembered the fact that the imperial edict was withdrawn yesterday, and instantly understood what was going on, and they all tried their best to suppress their laughter.

After Li Shimin saw Empress Changsun with uneasiness, he tactfully told Empress Changsun the suggestions of the ministers.

And he emphasized several times that he did not make the decision this time, but came to discuss it with her first.

After listening to Li Shimin's words, Empress Changsun couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Second brother is interested, and I agree with the renovation of the Taoist temple."

"However, now that there is a locust plague in the county outside Chang'an City, it is better to put aside the money to repair the Taoist temple temporarily. After the locust plague has passed, we will repair the Taoist temple."

"What do you think, second brother?"

Li Shimin sighed softly and agreed rather helplessly.Knowing all this, Li Chengqian was very anxious. He rushed all the way to the palace without stopping, planning to do some ideological work for his mother.

However, when he came to the gate of Qingning Palace, he hesitated. He repeatedly disobeyed his mother's wishes.

Now if I try to persuade her again, it's nothing for her to teach herself, the main reason is that she is worried that her condition will get worse, so the loss outweighs the gain.

My younger brothers and sisters may not know how much hardship my mother endured back then.

Only he, the boss, knows that the night after his father goes out every time.

After she fell asleep, her mother would secretly wipe her tears and pray to the Sanqing, asking them to protect her father.

During the Xuanwu Gate Incident, my mother asked my father to take away all the guards in the house.

Then, holding the sword and holding himself in the other hand, he stood at the door of the house, waiting for the final result. Once his father was defeated, his mother would definitely kill herself on the spot.

At that time, he clearly remembered that his mother was holding his hand and trembling all the time!

No, he must save his mother, even if it means risking his own life.

Thinking of this, he plucked up the courage and was about to walk into the palace, but suddenly he heard someone calling him from behind: "Wu Zhao is here to see the prince's brother."

He turned around and saw Wu Zhao, who was as beautiful as a flower and jade, with bright eyes and white teeth, and he couldn't help but have another idea in his mind.

The mother is very close to this girl Wu Zhao, so asking her to work with her to persuade her mother will definitely have a higher success rate.

He stopped quickly and told Wu Zhao what he thought.

Wu Zhao blinked his beautiful eyes and thought for a while before speaking: "Brother Prince, I can understand that you are being cautious."

"However, I think these ideas are a bit illusory. It is better to be down-to-earth and find some reasonable price comparison methods."

"You see, for example, the wine Yuan Shouwei drank for my mother was more effective, and Yuan Shouwei promised me that he would think of a solution."

Although Wu Zhao said it very straightforwardly, Li Chengqian didn't take it to heart. He also knew that everyone was doing it for his mother's good.

Can't help asking curiously: "Sister Wu Zhao, what is this Yuan Shouwei you are talking about?"

Immediately, Wu Zhao told him about Yuan Shouwei.

When Li Chengqian learned that Yuan Shouwei was even more capable than Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang, he suddenly felt a little excited.

I plan to meet this magical Taoist priest myself.

But before going, I have to prepare some gifts, so that I can show my sincerity.

Moreover, he has always believed in a saying: Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man.

If Wu Zhao and the others couldn't accomplish anything, they might not be able to accomplish it themselves.

The next day.

Li Chengqian confidently took a few guards to the foot of the mountain in Huayin County.

Looking at this aura-filled hill, he couldn't help but reach out and touch the things in his arms, instantly feeling more confident.

After the group arrived at the Taoist temple, they saw Yuan Shouwei telling a businessman's fortune.

The guard behind him was about to drive the businessman away, but was stopped by Li Chengqian, who just stood quietly and waited.

After Yuan Shouwei finished doing the math for the businessman, Yuan Shouwei stood up and saluted Li Chengqian: "I've seen the layman, I kept you waiting for a long time."

It turned out that he had a clear view of the scene just now, and his impression of Li Chengqian was naturally more favorable.

Li Chengqian had done enough work for Yuan Shouwei before coming here, so he was not surprised to see Yuan Shouwei so young.

After hearing Yuan Shouwei's words, he also bowed and said some polite words.

When Yuan Shouwei saw his face, he felt a little familiar, but he wasn't sure.

Just ask him if he wants to offer incense or tell a fortune.
