Chapter 828 What is Han Tong
Outside the hall, the court guards stood in a pile, but their heads were lowered, and no one dared to take a look at Li Chongjiu.

Li Chongjiu and Shi Deyun walked to a wing room next to the main hall where they rested on weekdays.Shi Deyun's tears flowed down.Seeing Shi Deyun like this, Li Chongjiu couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, but he didn't know what happened, he turned away from the left and right, and then said: "I'm discussing military affairs, why do you come here to cry?"

Shi Deyun said with red eyes: "Your Majesty, since I married you, I have been with you for more than ten years, and I have never asked Your Majesty for anything. I know that my foreign girl is not as noble as the empress, in terms of deep feelings , is not as good as Concubine Li Gui, but in my heart... In my heart, His Majesty is the most important person to me besides Yinger."

After hearing Shi Deyun's words, Li Chongjiu couldn't help but feel a little guilty and said: "Okay, I didn't treat you badly. I am very good to you and Ying'er."

Shi Deyun raised her head and said, "Then, since Your Majesty said he was very kind to me and Ying'er, why did you transfer Ke Mulun away?"

Li Chongjiu pondered for a while and said, "I have another call for Ke Mulun."

Shi Deyun asked: "Your Majesty, you also know that Ying'er has always been close to him, and if he leaves him, who will counsel him?"

Li Chongjiu said: "Practicing martial arts is to strengthen the body, and it is enough for a while. I am going to invite a few great scholars to teach Ying'er. They are all..."

Li Chongjiu was about to explain, when he reported outside the study: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent military situation from Hedong."

Li Chongjiu said: "I know." At that moment Li Chongjiu said to Shi Deyun: "I can't explain this to you for a while, you can go to the queen first, and I will come to you later."

Shi Deyun wanted to speak, but seeing Li Chongjiu's expression, he knew that the military situation was the most important thing.She was not an unreasonable woman, she immediately said: "Well, Your Majesty, you have to make it clear to me today no matter what." After speaking, Shi Deyun left sadly.Li Chongjiu looked at Shi Deyun's back and couldn't help worrying, but he still returned to the hall.

After Shi Deyun left the palace, she walked alone in the imperial garden, and all the maids behind her were called away by her.She didn't listen to Li Chongjiu's words and went to see Yang Ehuang, but went to relax alone.

After Linshuo Palace was rebuilt, the imperial garden was also refreshed, but for Shi Deyun, he had no intention of appreciating it.

Shi Deyun didn't know how long she had been walking, and suddenly heard a commotion in the distance, so she had unknowingly arrived at Su Concubine's palace.Concubine Su's palace seemed to be very lively, with maids in the palace and officials' wives constantly coming to visit.and

It's not like my palace is deserted.

At this time, I saw Mrs. Su came to the steps and personally sent a few officials out, but I saw Concubine Su smiling, and she was dressed in a concubine's fine attire, which set off her elegant demeanor.

Seeing this scene, Shi Deyun thought that when Concubine Su first came to the palace, she was not favored by Li Chongjiu, so the palace people mostly neglected her.But then she gradually changed her indifferent temper, and began to flatter Li Chongjiu, which made Li Chongjiu love her very much.But now that concubine Su gave birth to a prince, not only is the mother more expensive than the son, but the son is more likely to inherit the crown prince.So Concubine Su's status in the palace today has risen.

Thinking of this, Shi Deyun couldn't help feeling sad inwardly, wondering why I was so stupid, wanting Yinger to get what he shouldn't have.

In all fairness, which mother does not want her son to become famous, even though this was not her original intention when she first married Li Chongjiu.At the beginning, Li Chongjiu was still a rebel general of the imperial court, independent and self-reliant, and outsiders saw it as precarious, but he married her because he simply liked her, so he had no hesitation.But now, Li Chongjiu is about to unify the world and become the Lord of the Son of Heaven.Shi Deyun also hoped from the bottom of her heart that Li Ying could become the crown prince, and she never denied it.

If Emperor Yang Ehuang had a prince, then the position of prince should be handed over to Emperor Yang Ehuang, and Shi Deyun had no objection at all.As Li Chongjiu's wife and concubine, although Shi Deyun doesn't need Yang Ehuang to love her so much, everyone can see Yang Ehuang's contribution to Li Chongjiu.So she is willing to take a step back, but she can accept the son born to Yang Ehuang as the prince, which does not mean that she can accept other people.

"Meet the empress!"

When Shi Deyun was walking, he suddenly heard the maid's voice behind him, turned his head and saw Yang Ehuang walking towards him.Seeing Yang Ehuang, Shi Deyun burst into tears and said, "Queen."

"Needless to say, I already know about it, let's talk about it when we return to the palace."

At present, Shi Deyun and Yang Ehuang went back to the palace together, but when Yang Ehuang came back to pick the weeds, she jumped up and pestered Shi Deyun in a childish voice: "Where's my brother? Why didn't your mother bring him?"
Shi Deyun also liked Caiwei very much and said: "He is still practicing arrows with his master Ke Mulun, ask him to come play with you again in the afternoon!"

"Okay, Caiwei, you go down first, don't get entangled here."

Caiwei stuck out her tongue when she heard Yang Ehuang's words, and then she jumped outside the house to play with a few palace servants.

Only Shi Deyun and Yang Ehuang were left in the room.Yang Ehuang said: "Sister, the matter of establishing the crown prince has caused a lot of trouble in the court. I know about it from the beginning to the end. But there is no news right now. You are secretly sad here alone, but I don't think so. necessary."

Shi Deyun asked: "But the three princes under your majesty, why does he treat Ying'er so lightly? Did he do something wrong?"

Yang Ehuang said: "I shouldn't have said this matter, but do you know? Your Majesty once had a word with me. It's not that he didn't like Li Ying, but he was afraid that Ying'er would be too pampered when he was a child, so he didn't like Li Ying." Well, he just wants to put on an appearance of alienating him, so that others will not be able to welcome him, otherwise it will be difficult to become a great weapon in the future. Therefore, His Majesty values ​​him very much in his heart."

After hearing this, Shi Deyun couldn't help but said in surprise: "Queen, Your Majesty really said that?"

Yang Ehuang nodded and said, "Yes."

Shi Deyun's face was full of worries, because she Yang Ehuang would not deceive her, but she still asked cautiously: "I heard that Xiao Niangniang intends to ask Concubine Su to let the Queen of Chu be raised by you, and let him become a grandson." Concubine Zhao, is there such a thing?"

Yang Ehuang nodded and said: "Yes, but I refused. Do you know? Although I am a queen, I am no different from an ordinary woman. As a woman, as long as my husband and my children are good, this life is enough. As for After all, Concubine Su's child will be raised by Concubine Su, I neither want to win someone's love, nor do I want to help King Chu become a prince."

Shi Deyun nodded again and again.At this time, someone from outside came to report: "Empress Empress, Your Majesty has come down."

Yang Ehuang smiled and patted Shi Deyun's hand, and the two stood up to greet her together.

After Li Chongjiu entered, he saw that Shi Deyun's face had changed from cloudy to sunny, and he was overjoyed at the moment.

Yang Ehuang also said: "Your Majesty, this concubine went to see Caiwei, you can talk to the noble concubine!"

Li Chongjiu nodded.After Yang Ehuang left, Li Chongjiu walked up to Shi Deyun and asked, "Are you still blaming me for transferring Ke Mulun away?"

Shi Deyun blushed and shook her head.

Li Chongjiu said: "I tell you the truth, this attack on the Tang Dynasty is an inexhaustible feat. After this battle, the world will be pacified. Therefore, His Majesty intends to allow Ke Mulun to gain military merits in this battle. After returning to the court, he will be promoted and reused. He will become Yinger's right-hand man in the future, do you understand my intentions?"

Shi Deyun couldn't help being excited when he heard this, tears welled up in his eyes again and said, "Your Majesty should have told me earlier, so I won't misunderstand."

Li Chongjiu waved his hand and said: "Although I have this intention, I have issued an imperial edict regarding the matter of the crown prince in secret, so it is not easy to tell you clearly. That's right, I have appointed Ying'er as the crown prince in the imperial edict."

Shi Deyun was so excited that she almost fainted, but she still asked, "Your Majesty, are you not afraid that the ministers will object to making Ying'er the crown prince?"

Li Chongjiu smiled and said: "The ministers who want to oppose are only those nobles from the east of the river who are proud of themselves. The other ministers will not have any objections. The so-called Han Tong, what is Han Tong? Although Gao Huan, the emperor of Qi State, He is a Han, but he acts according to the law of the Hu people. He respects the Hu and suppresses the Han. Is this the Han system? On the contrary, Yu Wentai, who created the hegemony of the Zhou Dynasty, is a Hu, but he respects the laws of the Han people and advocates the integration of Han and Hu. As for the former Sui emperors Yang Jian and Yang Guang, they also have the blood of Hu people and Han people, and Yang Jian's Xianbei surname is also called Pu Liuru."

"As for Li Yuan, Li Shimin and his son who competed with me for the world, they are also descendants of Xianbei people and Han people. Does the Guanlong gentry still oppose them? Because the Guanlong gentry themselves are also descendants of Hu people and Han people. The world is so big, not only The Han people are obsessed with the views of Han and Hu, and they are self-proclaimed. Since I want to unify the world, I want to tolerate all ethnic groups. I only want the next generation of Zhao Guo to respect the customs of Han and Hu, so that the people in the country can live and work in peace and contentment, and future generations will not be bullied by other countries. That's it."
"Your Majesty, I understand!" Shi Deyun said, wiping away tears.

Li Chongjiu held Shi Deyun's hand and said: "Ying'er is my eldest son, I have high expectations for him, you teach him well, don't let me down."

Shi Deyun said: "Your Majesty, the concubine knows."
Changan.

Promise Hall.

It has been more than a year since Li Shimin ascended the throne, and after ascending to the throne of the Tang Dynasty, he has become more and more powerful as an emperor.As Li Shimin's think tank and his right-hand man, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui also had a few strands of gray hair between his temples.

"Your Majesty, according to the reports of generals from all over the country, since the beginning of spring, Zhao Guo has significantly reduced the use of troops in Hexi, Hedong, and Xiangyang."
After Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Du Ruhui coughed a few times and said, "Your Majesty, Zhao Jun has reduced the use of troops. I don't think it is a good thing. It's just like fighting with people. If you want to throw your fists out, you have to retract them first. Have the strength to swing out. When the Zhao army attacked Tang in two years, it was imminent, and now the retreat is to accumulate strength and launch a decisive battle."

After Du Ruhui finished speaking, he coughed a few more times.

Li Shimin said with concern: "Keming, your health is not very good recently, please take care of yourself."

Du Ruhui said: "Your Majesty, I understand this by myself, thank you for your concern."

Li Shimin said: "I will order someone to bring some old ginseng from the palace to your house."

Du Ruhui showed a grateful expression and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Shimin sat on the chair and said: "Li Chongjiu decided to put all his eggs in one basket and fight to the death with me, but I haven't just sat and waited for him to attack this year."
