Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the game is to touch the Princess Changle

In the evening, in a private room of a restaurant.

"I wonder what you think about this matter?"

In a private room on the third floor of Leshan Restaurant, a large table of Chang'an aristocratic families sat. This time, they did not raise their glasses and laugh as before, and the atmosphere in the private room was a little depressing.

Everyone's facial muscles were tense, and their eyes were a little sad.

"Master Lu, I wonder what you are talking about?"

After everyone was silent for a moment, Zheng Guang of Zheng Clan of Xingyang asked knowingly.

"Although the young man took advantage of the situation today to defeat the two aristocratic families of Cui and Wang. This is also due to their own death. They didn't even know the other party's name.

They dared to send people to assassinate, and the other party publicly tried the whole thing in public. How can they not be defeated?"

Zheng Guang saw that Lu Changfeng did not answer him, and immediately expressed some of his own opinions.

After listening, some people nodded, and some people seemed to be concerned about the ending of the Cui and Wang families.

"Although what the head of the Zheng family said about taking advantage of the situation makes sense, not everyone can take advantage of this situation. Have you noticed that His Majesty and his trusted ministers are also present today? Look at the attitude of the commander of the imperial army towards the young man.

I think that young man is not only presenting the method of refining snowflake salt to His Majesty, but also able to survive the assassination of so many people."

When Li Shanhuai finished speaking, more people nodded in agreement.

They were more concerned about Su Chen.

"Everyone should not discuss the affairs of the Cui and Wang families. We have no hatred for the young man, nor have we ever had a grudge against him. In the future, we may have more contact with the young man."

Cui Yuanzong of the Qinghe Cui family is now unwilling to talk about the Boling Cui family. Although the ancestors of the Boling and Qinghe Cui families are brothers, it has been nearly 400 years.

Now that the Boling Cui family has been destroyed and its reputation has been ruined, their Qinghe Cui family has also been affected.

"Why don't we use this snowflake salt as an opportunity to find this young man, prepare a generous gift to express our gratitude and show our attitude, what do you think?"

Li Shanhuai from Longxi proposed.

Today, this young man used the people's public opinion to deal with the two prominent families. Who knows if it will be their turn next time.

"Brother Shanhuai's method is very appropriate, but where can we find this young man?"

The heads of other noble families also nodded frequently, all agreeing with Li Shanhuai's proposal.

"In my humble opinion, after the morning court tomorrow, we will go to the palace to meet the emperor and explain the reason to the emperor. Didn't the young man say today that the mining rights can only be found by the emperor.

It doesn't matter whether the emperor tells him or not, and our attitude towards the young man can also let him know."

After thinking for a while, Li Shanhuai thought of a way to have the best of both worlds.

"Okay, that's great!"

"It's late today, everyone, let's go to the palace to meet the emperor tomorrow, cheers!"

Everyone agreed with their ideas, only one person was not very interested.

…

Lizheng Palace.

“Guanyin, you and Chengqian Changle go. Father doesn’t like me. Going there will only make him angry.”

Li Shimin smiled helplessly and said to himself: Father, my son is also suffering!

Empress Changsun held Li Shimin’s arm and looked up at him, revealing a look of heartache, and didn’t know how to comfort him for a while.

In the past three years, Emperor Taishang Li Yuan has never had a good face to Li Shimin, let alone a good word.

However, he is very sympathetic to this second daughter-in-law, and he also loves the princes and princesses born to Empress Taishang. Hearing from the servants that the queen was seriously ill a few days ago, he specially sent someone to visit.

Even though he is the emperor, it is not convenient for him to enter the harem of the current emperor.

"Erlang, don't think too much. I plan to invite my father to attend Changle's engagement in two days. Your Majesty, do you think it's appropriate?"

Li Shimin gently patted Empress Changsun's hand, nodded and said, "Guanyin, you decide on this matter."

Empress Changsun smiled gently, "Erlang, let's go see my father together!"

Li Shimin looked embarrassed, "Is this okay? What if my father doesn't want to see me? Then... I will just stay outside the door and not say anything?"

"Erlang, let's go!"

Empress Changsun smiled and pulled Li Shimin's arm, looking like he was being dragged away by her.

Changle and Li Chengqian followed with a smile.

...

Taiji Palace, separated from the harem by a wall.

According to convention, Taiji Palace should have been the palace where the emperor lived, but the old emperor was angry with his son and refused to move.

In fact, the environment of Taiji Palace was not good, and it was very cold in autumn and winter.

"Grandpa Emperor, Grandpa Emperor! Li Zhi, you are here!"

The old man who was sitting in the hall drinking tea heard the shouting from afar and smiled unconsciously.

The tea and wine and the set of living room chairs that Old Li brought were all brought by Empress Changsun herself.

She was worried that if Li Shimin brought them, the emperor would be angry and refuse to accept them.

"Li Zhi, Gao Ming, Empress, you are here!"They are here!"

Li Yuan showed a kind smile on his face. In fact, he also felt lonely. Fortunately, he had several children, grandchildren and granddaughters who often came to see him.

He just didn't want to see Li Shimin's unlucky son and several old members of the Qin Palace.

Look, he was kind just now, but when he saw a dazzling guy following behind, he snorted coldly.

Li Shimin, who had never planned to dare to come in, didn't want to go in even more after hearing this snort.

"Daughter-in-law greets father!"

"Grandson greets grandfather!"

Li Yuan immediately turned back into the kind old grandfather.

"Okay, okay, sit down."

The old eunuch immediately stepped forward to serve tea, but was taken by Empress Changsun, who helped Li Yuan refill the tea.

After Empress Changsun sat down, she first glanced at Changle, then smiled and said:

"Father, Li Zhi will be engaged to Su Chen in the previous royal manor two days later, that is, on the sixth day of June, at the previous royal manor. "

Speaking of this, Empress Changsun glanced at Li Shimin intentionally or unintentionally, and continued:

"I would like to invite you to go with me, father. I wonder if you are willing?"

Li Yuan's smile faded a little, as if he was thinking.

"Grandpa, you must go, otherwise Li Zhi will not accompany you in the future!"

When Changle saw that her grandfather did not agree immediately, she stood up and came to Li Yuan's chair, shaking his arm and threateningly.

"Okay, okay, my precious granddaughter is getting engaged, I will definitely go."

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he immediately turned into a sour face, and said to the outside of the door in a strange way:

"I just don't know if that unlucky thing agrees with me, an old guy, to leave the palace!"

Li Shimin, who had been sitting on the steps outside the door and listening carefully, immediately stood up and patted his buttocks.

Standing at the door and said respectfully:

"Father, I dare not. I am so happy that you are willing to participate. "

Li Yuan snorted again, and then his old face changed again.

"Li Zhi, tell Grandpa Huang about this Su Chen. I have heard of him, but not in detail."

Li Shimin heard that Li Yuan still disliked him, and sat back on the steps tactfully.

Changle was about to speak, and he kept talking.

"Cough!"

Empress Changsun suddenly coughed, and Changle looked at Empress Changsun in confusion.

Then she realized that her mother was looking at Li Shimin outside!

The living room fell into a brief silence.

"Who is outside? The tea is cold. If you don't want to drink it next time, tell me earlier. Don't waste my tea."

Li Yuan said something sarcastic to the outside again.

"Father, your son is coming right now, right now! "

Li Shimin reacted quickly, stood up and ran into the living room while patting his butt.

He sat down next to Li Yuan and drank a sip of tea.

"Father, the story about that kid has to start from the Leshan Restaurant run by Changle outside the palace."

"It started like this..."

Li Shimin told Li Yuan everything in detail.

Li Chengqian and Changle would add a few more words in the middle, and they kept talking until it was almost dark for dinner.

"Nearly 10,000 catties of grain seeds per mu."

"In a blink of an eye, overthrowing two wealthy and prestigious families."

"In an instant, pulling the queen back from the brink of life and death."

After listening, Li Yuan exhaled a long breath of sixty years of old air and murmured.

"I would like to meet this 16-year-old...

grandson-in-law right away."
