Chastity Layman

  Chapter 922 The prince has nothing to do

  Prince Chengqian was held by his father Li Shimin and got into the same carriage.

  The ordinary-looking carriage drove slowly on the flat bluestone streets of Chang'an. What the emperor and his son said in the carriage, even Changsun Wuji had no way of knowing.

At the gate of the Taiji Palace, the emperor got off the car, and the prince promised to help him. Li Shimin shook off his hand, "I am still young, and I am not old. To be honest, I can still ride a horse, draw a big bow, and even swing a lance." The enemy, even if there are millions of troops, there is no fear, can you do it?"

   Chengqian was stunned, and the emperor jumped off the carriage with a steady figure.

   "Go back, remember what I told you just now. Today I met and chatted with the old guys. Although I was happy for a while, I drank some wine, but I was not drunk."

  The emperor entered the palace gate, but the prince was still in the same place.

  Eldest Sun Wuji stepped forward, "Your Highness?"

   "Uncle!"

The eldest grandson patted Chengqian in a daze, "Today you and I are both in modest clothes, so we don't judge each other as monarchs and ministers. I will chat with you as your uncle. Uncle watched you grow up. It has been almost ten years since you became the crown prince at the age of eight, and you have changed a lot, and you are also deeply honored as a sage prince in the government and the public, but you should not be burdened by this reputation, so you can be complacent, your father said That's right, today's you are far behind him in the past!"

"Do you know why your father lost his composure today? It's because your father is also a very strong person. I think he started his army at the age of sixteen, and he fought invincible hands all over the east, west, north and south when he was in his twenties. Your father is not only a man who can ride A mighty general who is good at shooting is also a commander who strategizes. There are so many heroes in the world who have fallen into your father's trap, and who among the heroes in the world will not obey your father?"

"But today, your royal father heard Qin Qiong and the others talk about Qin Lang and Cheng Chumo, and found that the sons of these fierce generals were actually better than blue. Do you know how touched your father was at that time? Children and grandchildren, one generation is not as good as the previous generation, but Qin Langcheng and the second generation of upstarts can go farther and stand higher than their parents at such a young age."

   "Your father led our group back then, he was the best, do you understand?"

   Chengqian bowed his head, "Uncle, you mean I've embarrassed my father?"

"That's not true. It's just that Qin Lang and Cheng Chumo's achievements today have something to do with His Majesty's ability to employ people, but it also has a lot to do with their ability to withstand tempering. If you can't cut a jade, you can't make a tool. Look at Qin Huailiang and Cheng Chumo. It’s been more than ten years, that’s why we have achieved today’s achievements.”

   Chengqian nodded, "I have always admired the teacher Weigong the most, Uncle, do you think I should also invite myself out to sharpen my skills?"

  Changsun Wuji smiled, but shook his head again.

"You are the prince. How can the prince leave Beijing easily? You need more tempering, but you don't have to go out to sharpen it. In the past few years, when His Majesty is not in Beijing, you have supervised the country's regent, and you usually take charge of the affairs of Yongzhou Mansion. It's all good, but you are still young after all, so you will inevitably make some mistakes, but you don't realize it yourself. For example, in the matter of the princess, you have been making mistakes from beginning to end, but you have never woken up. No matter what Why don't you like Mrs. Su, but since he has entered the palace, she is the head of the East Palace. His Highness doesn't live with the Crown Princess, and ignores the Crown Princess. How childish is that? If it is not handled well, how can His Majesty believe that His Majesty will be able to better inherit the Great Tang Dynasty in the future?"

  Chengqian was in a bit of pain. He really didn't like Su Shi. From the first time we met, he didn't like her. After entering the palace, he hated her even more, and he hasn't even touched her until now.

   "Your Highness, you are married, it is best to conceive the princess as soon as possible, and it is best to give birth to the eldest grandson of the emperor as soon as possible. This will also be of great help to your reserve position."

  Although Chengqian has been the prince for nine years, it does not mean that his position is very stable. How many people who have been the prince for decades have failed to become the emperor in the end?

   Besides, today is still so young, so many things are really full of uncertainties.

   "Uncle, I really don't like the Su family."

"You are stupid, you still say such childish things now, Su, whether you like it or not, he was chosen for you by your father, emperor and your mother, and he has already married and entered the palace. Do you still want to abolish him?" Lose your own princess and marry another? Have you thought about the consequences?"

"Whether you like it or not, this is a fait accompli, so you can take it to heart, but you have to do what you have to do. In fact, most things in this world are like this. Not everything we can do as we want, This is true for ordinary people, and even more so for a king, if you can't even handle such a little thing well, and you can't face it correctly, how will you deal with all kinds of things in the world after you sit in that seat in the future?"

   "Don't say anything, I'm lucky to be with Mrs. Su tonight. From now on, I will live with Mrs. Su until she becomes pregnant."

   Chengqian's face showed pain, the young His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, could still accept this concept very well. Get along day and night with a person you hate, and have a child with him.

"Your Highness, life is too much involuntary. Everything needs to weigh the pros and cons, and often requires compromise. Do you see that the Yellow River and the Yangtze River run straight eastward? No, no matter whether it is the Yellow River or the Yangtze River, they all have twists and turns. Why? Because there will be countless mountains and boulders blocking the way in front of you. The mountains will not charge hard, but will turn around, and sometimes even turn around. This natural scene actually contains many The most simple way of the world."

   "Sometimes, you should learn more from Qin Huailiang, he is your teacher, look at this guy, he is very flexible in doing things, he will never hang himself on a tree, let alone smash against a rock."

   Chengqian looked at his uncle who cared about him, and finally said something a little embarrassed.

   "I didn't feel anything when I faced Su Shi."

   "It's the same when the lights are turned off and when they are blinded."

   "It's different, I really don't feel it."

   "I don't feel it at all, can't I?"

"cannot!"

  Changsun Wuji couldn't help scratching his head when he heard this, this is a troublesome matter, he never thought that Chengqian was so young, yet he still had such obstacles in the face of the Su family.

  The emperor has issued a death order, and Su must have a child.

   "How about you imagine yourself as someone else?"

   "No." Cheng Qian still shook his head.

   "Drink some wine, doesn't Qin Lang have deer blood wine, sea cucumber wine, whip wine, etc., you drink some."

   "Uncle, I'm fine. As long as it's not the Su family, I can fight for seven rounds at night."

  Changsun Wuji was a little surprised, the young man is very fierce, he is in his prime, and he can only score twice, but his nephew can fight seven times at night?

   "Take it easy, you're still young, don't waste your body's essence, enough is enough, once every three to five days, once or twice a time is enough."

Changsun Wuji thought for a while and came up with an idea, "Why don't you do this? I heard that you love Mrs. Pei the most. Recently, Hou Junji's daughter also entered the East Palace and you like it very much. Then you can choose one to guide Su. Mrs. Pei, or simply let them serve you together, maybe Pei or Hou will be there to help you out?"

  Chengqian didn't expect that Uncle, who knows how to play, could come up with such a trick.

"Don't be embarrassed, this is a task. If you can't finish it, His Majesty will not be happy. You must pay attention to it." The eldest grandson patted his nephew on the shoulder, "If this is not enough, then write a letter to Qin Lang and ask him for advice. , this guy is young, and there are countless beauties in the backyard. It is said that this guy can guard ten girls at night, he is very perverted, he must have a way."

  Chengqian's mouth is wide open, Yeyu ten daughters, is the teacher still so fierce?

   "Uncle, what my father said about tempering is probably not just as simple as having a child with the Su family, please teach me, uncle!"

  The eldest grandson Wuji is still very careful about his nephew, but he has bet the future of the eldest grandson's family on this nephew.

   "You have to come up with some real achievements, preferably something that can amaze a saint. It can't be an ordinary thing, let alone the credit of the people under your command."

   Chengqian was a little distressed. In the past few years, he began to study government affairs, and even often stayed behind to supervise the country when the emperor was out hunting in Beijing.

   "Nowadays the world is peaceful and the two capitals are prosperous. Although Chang'an can't help the king, it is also bustling with business and business, and the law and order are good. I really can't think of any other place that can show outstanding achievements."

Changsun Wuji shook his head, "The world is not peaceful today. Dongcuan in Yunnan has raised troops to cause chaos, and Annan has set up the Southern Dynasty with arrogance and puppetry. Now they have sent troops across the river to invade the Tonghai Governor's Mansion, and the rivers in the West Lingnan Road Dongman has been in turmoil recently, one after another, and the chaos has never stopped. The Jing Navy of the Southern Governor's Mansion also crossed Hengshan and sent troops to Linyi to help the queen of Linyi to restore the restoration. The west is not peaceful either. There are also frequent wars, and Tubo has been threatening the several Qiang kingdoms that belonged to the Tang Dynasty, even Tuyuhun."

   "Not to mention that Xue Yantuo is extremely arrogant, Goguryeo is rebellious, and Japan is ambitious..."

   Chengqian frowned, "How about I ask to go to the south to pacify the barbarians? With a teacher in Lingnan, the southern barbarians should be pacified soon."

  The eldest grandson shook his head.

"With Qin Lang in Lingnan, why should His Highness go there? Even if His Highness goes down, His Majesty will know that Qin Lang's contribution is actually due to the chaos. Besides, His Highness has never commanded troops, let alone fought a battle. , This is really a reckless idea of ​​commanding the barbarians, and it will only make His Majesty dissatisfied, don't forget, Your Majesty is the generalissimo who raised the army at the age of sixteen, and fought all over the world at the age of twenty, aren't you just playing tricks?"

   "Then what to do?"

  The eldest grandson also felt a headache, the emperor suddenly became dissatisfied with the crown prince, this matter was really caught off guard.

   "Forget it, Your Highness should ask Qin Lang, he might have an idea."
