Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 217 Manna Palace

As soon as he returned to Chang'an, Li Er called the prince to Ganlu Hall after a short rest.

Ganlu Hall is the emperor's sleeping hall.

There is a Zhuming Gate behind the Taiji Hall. To the north of Zhuming Gate is Liangyi Gate. The horizontal street between Zhuming Gate and Liangyi Gate is the boundary between court and bedroom.

The dormitory area is divided into two rows of palaces by a side street (Yongxiang). Since this part is the dormitory, the defense is more stringent.

Four horizontal gates were added in Yongxiang: Donghengmen, Xihengmen, Rihuamen and Yuehuamen.

The south of Yongxiang is the living area of ​​the emperor, that is, the "emperor's bedroom", and the north of Yongxiang is the living area of ​​the empress and concubines, that is, the "back bedroom".

Except for the emperor and concubines, underage princes and princesses, as well as serving maids and eunuchs, foreign ministers are absolutely forbidden to enter, even adult princes are not allowed to enter whenever they want.

In the middle of the front row is the building complex of Liangyi Hall. To the north of the horizontal street, in the middle is the Ganlu Gate. Inside the gate is the Emperor's sleeping hall, the Ganlu Hall.

On the left and right sides of Ganlu Hall are Shenlong Hall and Anren Hall, and on both sides are Daji Hall, Baifu Hall, and Chengqing Hall, each of which has its own courtyard.

The famous change of nectar happened here.

Li Chengqian is neither unfamiliar nor familiar with Ganlu Temple.

Since he became the crown prince, this is the first time Li Er has summoned him in the Ganlu Hall, and he has never been to the Ganlu Hall before.

Therefore, this was the first time that Li Chengqian walked into this palace where he would live as the emperor.

"I will see my father!" Li Chengqian came to the dragon couch and saluted Li Er.

Li Er casually sat on the dragon couch, patted the seat beside him and said, "Chengqian, come, sit beside me."

"Thank you, father!" Li Chengqian got up, walked to Li Er and sat down.

As soon as Li Chengqian's butt touched the dragon couch, His Majesty Li Er's voice came to his ears.

"Chengqian, are you convicted?"

Li Chengqian was startled!
The urgency in the middle of the night called me here, just to raise the teacher and question the crime?

No, if Master Xing wanted to inquire about the crime, he should have been reprimanded by Li Er as soon as he came in. As early as when he stepped into the Ganlu Hall, he would have roared and told him to kneel down.

She would never let herself sit beside him so gently.

Unless he didn't want to raise a teacher to question the crime at all, thinking of this, Li Chengqian felt relieved immediately.

"Father and emperor went on an expedition to Goguryeo, and my ministers supervised the country under the imperial edict. There was never a single mistake, and my ministers were stupid! I don't know where the crime is?" Li Chengqian said.

Out of the corner of Li Er's eyes, he looked at Li Chengqian, who was sitting firmly beside him, neither humble nor overbearing, and felt a little satisfied.

He wouldn't immediately lie on the ground just because he asked casually just now, shouting that he was guilty, but he didn't realize his wrong attitude at all.

On this point, Li Er is still satisfied with Li Chengqian.

"You still dare to say that you are not guilty. You left the palace to go to Xiazhou privately. How do you say I should punish you." Li Er looked back at Li Chengqian, pretending to be annoyed.

I saw Li Chengqian got up and cupped his hands and said: "Father really wronged my son and minister!"

"Oh! How did I wrong you?" Li Erdao, he wanted to see how Li Chengqian would argue.

"Father, the soldiers of our Great Tang guarded the land and guarded the borders, protecting the country and the people. It can be said that they have made great achievements. Without the dedication of these soldiers, how could there be peace in our Great Tang."

"As the prince of Jian Guo, I should go to appease the sergeant. What's the crime? What's more, I went out of Beijing to Xiazhou this time, and I went there in a fair way." Li Chengqian said.

As the crown prince, he doesn't need to sneak around to appease the army.

"For what you said is reasonable, I don't care about this matter with you." Li Erdao.

Li Chengqian was telling the truth, and he couldn't use this excuse to educate the prince.

"Then I ask you, what happened to Xue Yantuo?" Li Er asked again.

As long as Li Chengqian's answer is slightly wrong, he can take the opportunity to reprimand and teach him.

"Xue Yantuo? I don't quite understand what the emperor means?" Li Chengqian said.

He was secretly wondering what Li Er wanted to do, why he suddenly asked about Xue Yantuo.

He had to figure out how to respond to Li Er's next question, and how he should answer it.

"I ask you, Ba Zhuo came to attack my Tang Dynasty, you just need to defeat Ba Zhuo, why did you kill Xue Yantuo?" Li Er asked.

"Father, Xue Yantuo has repeatedly violated our Tang Dynasty and ignored his authority. Xue Yantuo's disobedience has already been clearly revealed."

"My son wanted to defeat Bazhuo's army, and after teaching Xue Yantuo an unforgettable lesson, he would send envoys to Mobei to spread the blessings of my great country, the state of etiquette."

"Let Xue Yantuo not dare to offend my Great Tang's national prestige again, and never have a second heart, and surrender to my Great Tang for generations." Li Chengqian said.

He didn't blush at all when he panicked, as if what he said was true, but he never planned to let Xue Yantuo go.

"Really?" Li Er questioned, but seeing Li Chengqian's serious expression, which did not seem to be fake, Li Er believed Li Chengqian's words.

"Everything my son said is true, it is all from the heart, there is absolutely no falsehood, the sun and the moon can learn from each other!" Li Chengqian lied swearingly.

"Since you have said so, I will believe you."

"Since you plan to send envoys to Xue Yantuo to spread the prestige of our Tang Dynasty, why did Xue Yantuo perish?" Li Er asked.

For Li Er's question, Li Chengqian had already thought of a countermeasure, and he knew the best answer.

"Father, please tell me, that day our army defeated Bazhuo's army, and after Bazhuo's army was defeated and fled, my son ordered people not to chase him, and returned to Wantong City immediately."

"Unexpectedly, before the minister returned to Wantong City, he received news from Mobei that because of Bazhuo's brutality, all the tribes could not bear his atrocities and raised troops to resist Bazhuo's rule."

"All the tribes, led by Tumidu, the leader of the Uighur tribe, broke through the royal court of the Xueyantuo Khanate in one fell swoop, and killed Xueyantuo."

"My son was worried that there would be chaos in Mobei, so I sent Wang Fangyi to lead [-] troops to the outside of the Great Wall, and stationed troops on Yu Dujun Mountain, with the intention of deterring the tribes."

"Unexpectedly, it caused a misunderstanding among the various tribes. They mistakenly thought that the Tang Dynasty was going to destroy Xue Yantuo, so the Uighur tribe sent troops to kill Bazhuo and gave his head to his ministers."

"There is no leader among the dragons in Xue Yantuo, which led to continuous internal strife in Xue Yantuo, so I had to order Wang Fangyi to send troops to suppress it."

"Fortunately, Xue Yantuo's rebellion did not lead to greater turmoil, otherwise it would be my son's fault." Li Chengqian told Li Er about the event of Xue Yantuo's extermination with slight changes.

"It's not your fault! You did a good job!" Li Er said, how could he not know what Li Chengqian did in this matter.

But Li Er didn't blame Li Chengqian. After all, Li Er had seen Xue Yantuo's displeasure for a long time, but he never found the right opportunity to act.

Otherwise, Xue Yantuo would have been eliminated several times by Li Er!If Xue Yantuo is not removed, there will never be peace on the border of the Tang Dynasty.

This time Bazhuo led the army to attack, which gave Li Er an excuse to destroy it, but Li Chengqian took the first step.
