Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 250 Visit
In addition to announcing the royal addition to the world, Li Er also hosted a banquet in the palace for officials above the fifth rank in the East Palace.

The civil and military ministers who received the notice came to the East Palace to attend the royal banquet one after another.

The ministers who came early gathered together with their well-connected colleagues to chat about gossip and private conversations, and their laughter could be heard from time to time.

"Your Majesty is here! His Royal Highness is here!" At this moment, the eunuch's voice came from outside the palace.

Then everyone returned to their seats and got up to welcome the emperor's holy car.

"See Your Majesty! I have seen the prince!" All the ministers saluted.

Li Er walked to the main seat and sat down, while the crown prince sat next to Li Er's subordinate.

"All lovers are free!" Li Er said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" the ministers thanked.

"Is there anyone else who hasn't come?" Li Er originally wanted to say something auspicious, but he found that someone was absent, and depending on the arrangement of the position, he was also a person of high authority.

Li Er looked around and found that Gao Shilian, the eldest grandson Wuji's uncle, did not attend today's banquet, and wondered why he did not come.

"Report to Your Majesty! The Crown Prince Taifu and Shen Guogong Gao Shilian are sick at home and cannot come to the banquet." A minister got up and said.

Li Er was a little depressed when he heard that, Gao Shilian was not just a courtier to Li Er, they also took into account the relationship between their in-laws.

Even though Gao Shilian was the uncle of Empress Wen's natal family and the relatives of Li Er's children, the in-law relationship in the Sui and Tang Dynasties was always complicated.

Gao Shilian was also a great contributor to the Xuanwu Gate Change, and the relationship between the monarch and his ministers was extraordinary.

"Didn't Wen Min say that Duke Gao's health has changed, so he can walk around? I wanted Duke Gao to go to the banquet to be happy and prolong his life, but why did he become bedridden again? What's going on?" Li Er asked, a little annoyed in his tone!
Wen Min is Gao Shilian's eldest son, Gao Shixing, and his nickname is Wen Min, even the cousin of Changsun Wuji and Changsun Empress, and Li Er's son-in-law.

In fact, Gao Shilian was ill long before this!It was only when Gao Shilian came to report some time ago that Gao Shilian's condition had improved, Li Er was relieved.

Who would have thought that now he was suddenly told that his condition had worsened to the point where he was bedridden and unable to move.

Li Er felt that Gao Xingchen had deceived him, which made Li Er very angry.

"Your Majesty! This is the news that I only learned when I passed by the Duke of Song's mansion when I came here. Today, the crown prince is happy to have a son. Wen Min was afraid of disturbing His Majesty's pleasure, so he temporarily suppressed the matter and did not report to the palace. !” said the minister.

"Okay! Let's start the banquet!" Li Er waved his hand and said, the banquet had already started. Although he was anxious to see Gao Shilian, he couldn't leave just like that.

Li Er's expression was a little downcast. The banquet this time was not pleasant.

After the banquet ended in a hurry, Li Er sent Wang Yuan to Gao Shilian's residence to inquire about Gao Shilian's situation. Li Er didn't know that Gao Shilian's time might be numbered!
Wang Yuan was ordered to visit Gao Shilian in Gao's mansion. He never thought that he would meet the crown prince.

As soon as the banquet was over, Li Chengqian and Wang Yuan came to Gao Shilian's residence.

"Young master! His Royal Highness is here!" the servant reported to Gao Xing.

"What? Eldest brother is here?" Princess Dongyang said, Wang Yuan beside him was also very surprised!

"What are you still doing in a daze! Get ready to pick up the driver!" Gao Xing said.

Gao Shilian's sons were also surprised why the prince came to visit his old father in person. Anyway, it was a great honor for them that the future emperor could come to Gaofu in person.

Everyone hurried to the gate to pick them up.

"Welcome Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Gao Xingxing and others hurriedly saluted when they saw Li Chengqian stepping down from the car.

"Excuse me, everyone!" Li Chengqian stretched out his hand to support him.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Everyone got up and said.

"Wang's servant is here too!" Li Chengqian looked at Wang Yuandao, he knew that Li Er was worried about Gao Shilian, so he thought Li Er would go to Gao's mansion himself.

He, Li Chengqian, came to the Gaofu to condolences, more for the sake of showing off, to let the world know his benevolence and righteousness.

Even if you don't want to be an emperor who expands the territory in the future, you must become a benevolent emperor who is successful in defending the territory and benevolent.

"This old servant has seen Mr. Lang! Everyone is worried about Shen Guogong, and specially ordered this old servant to bring the imperial physician to visit him, and let the imperial physician diagnose and treat Shen Guogong." Wang Yuan said.

"Wen Min, how is Taifu's situation now? I heard that Taifu is seriously ill, and I am very worried! I came here to visit so I can feel at ease." Li Chengqian turned his head and asked Gao Xingxing, and walked inside while talking.

Looking at Gao Xing in front of him, Li Chengqian had an indescribable feeling in his heart that he should be his uncle in terms of seniority, but he was also his brother-in-law.

"Thank you, Your Highness, my father is well!" Gao Xing said.

Gao Shilian's condition is now under control.

Li Chengqian knew in his heart that this was only temporary, Gao Shilian had already reached the point of exhaustion, and he might die at any moment.

But Li Chengqian couldn't say it out, people who didn't know thought he had ulterior motives.

Li Chengqian pretended to breathe a sigh of relief: "In this case, I can rest assured!"

While speaking, everyone came to Gao Shilian's bedroom to visit Gao Shilian.

"Teacher!" Looking at Gao Shilian who was lying ill in bed, Li Chengqian stepped forward and saluted.

"The old minister has seen the prince! The old minister is sick! I can't get up to salute His Highness! I hope His Highness will forgive me!" Gao Shilian said.

"Teacher's health is important, you don't have to pay so much attention to these vain rituals!" Li Chengqian said, "Does Taifu feel better?"

"The old minister feels much better!" Gao Shilian said, he knew that he might not have much time.

After Li Chengqian said a few words to Gao Shilian, he walked out of the bedroom. He didn't bother Gao Shilian too much, and Gao Shilian needed to rest anyway.

Wang Yuan had already returned to the palace to report the situation to Li Er when Li Chengqian was talking to Gao Shilian.

Wang Yuan told Li Er about the imperial physician's diagnosis, and even told Li Er about meeting the crown prince at Gao Shilian's mansion.

"Wen Min! The Grand Tutor will help you to take good care of me. If you need anything, just tell me. The widow and the emperor will definitely satisfy you."

"The Grand Tutor is the master of the widow. He has worked tirelessly to assist the widow in dealing with the affairs of the court. Now he is seriously ill! The widow feels uncomfortable." Li Chengqian said.

"Your Highness, please take care, don't hurt the dragon's body!" Gao Xing said.

"Okay! Now Taifu needs you to take care of him, so you don't have to accompany the widow, and the widow can feel relieved when he sees that Taifu's health has improved!"

"The widow will not bother you to take care of the grand tutor. I will go back to the palace. I hope you can send the situation of the grand tutor to the east palace at all times, so that the widow can always know." Li Chengqian said.

"I understand! Someone must report my father's daily situation to His Highness!" Gao Xing said.

Li Chengqian patted Gao Xingshi on the shoulder, turned around and got into the carriage, and returned to the East Palace under the guard of the guards.
