Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

"I know that the Supreme Emperor has a heart-to-heart knot, and this time has added a few rifts between the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty father and son. I am guilty, and my heart is to be punished. I will go to Yichun Palace and kneel outside the hall to plead guilty to the Supreme Emperor!"

After repeating his crimes, Changsun Wuji was about to rush out of Wangbei Pavilion.

"stop!"

His Majesty Li Er was finally willing to speak, and he continued to shout with a gloomy expression: "You go there now, it's no different from courting death. Wuji..."

When he said the last three words, His Majesty Li Er's tone was obviously a little more tactful, with less anger and more regret.

The eldest grandson Wuji has been with Li Shimin for many years, does he not know Li Shimin's temper?As long as His Majesty talks to himself in this tone, it means that he is out of danger.

Taking a long breath secretly, he felt relieved.

Then, as if listening to the admonition, he replied: "Your Majesty, I am here. I have done something wrong this time, which has caused you trouble. I am guilty, please punish me!"

His Majesty Li Er supported both sides of the armrest with both hands, stood up from the dragon chair, walked down slowly to the side of Changsun Wuji, and said softly: "Wuji, how can I not know your thoughts? Putting aside that you are Shangshu Zuopushe , not to mention my right-hand man, you are still an old man in Tiance Mansion, my big brother-in-law! How could I not know your good intentions, Wuji?"

Hearing His Majesty Li Er's affectionate words, Changsun Wuji was moved, his nose felt sour for no reason, and there seemed to be something sour in his throat, he choked up and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, minister, minister..."

"Wuji, don't talk about it, do you still need such a relationship between you and me?"

His Majesty Li Er interrupted Changsun Wuji's tears, patted him on the shoulder, stretched out his thumb and gently wiped the tears from the corners of Changsun Wuji's eyes, and said from the bottom of his heart, "Wuji, did you do well this time?" Wrong, but very wrong, do you know where the problem is?"

Right or wrong?

At the first glance, Changsun Wuji was extremely contradictory, and then shook his head to express his understanding.

His Majesty Li Er suddenly smiled and said: "Thanks to your eldest grandson Wuji who was the number one think tank of my Tiance Mansion back then, haha, Wuji, do you really think that I don't want to take down the old officials of Wude in one fell swoop, expel them from the court, and never leave the court again?" Hold me back?"

Speaking of this, regardless of Changsun Wuji opening his mouth to say something, he asked himself and answered: "I think, I think very much, I think about it day and night!"

Changsun Wuji heard the emperor speak so nakedly, and hurriedly asked: "Then why does Your Majesty still..."

His Majesty Li Er didn't wait for Changsun Wuji to finish his speech, and asked decisively: "You still follow the suggestion of the Supreme Emperor and order to stop the joint trial of the three divisions, right?"

Changsun Wuji grunted slightly and nodded.

His Majesty Li Er said: "Don't say that the Supreme Emperor forced me to stop. If I knew in advance that you would attack Pei Ji and other old military officials so rashly, hehe, I would also take the initiative to stop. The reason is that you are too impatient and your appetite It's too big, Wuji, is the line of Wude old ministers as simple as you imagine? They are all veterans who have gone through two dynasties. Can the small Gong Ji case be completely eradicated?"

"Too impatient, too much appetite?"

Changsun Wuji secretly thought about what His Majesty Li Er said. Could it be that this is the real reason why His Majesty stopped the joint trial of the third division?

His Majesty Li Er continued: "It's not uncommon for you to be bitten by a snake without dying. Could it be that Wuji has forgotten the case of Yang Xuangan in the Sui Dynasty? If you only fight against one of Yang Gongren or Chen Shuda this time, I can open my eyes. Turn one eye and turn the other eye, the Taishanghuang can also prevaricate for you. But I didn't expect you to have such a big appetite... Wuji, too much is easy to break, too much haste is not a good thing."

"Your Majesty, I know I'm wrong!"

Changsun Wuji cupped his hands and bowed deeply, regretfully said: "I will never act rashly again!"

His Majesty Li Er nodded, waved his hand and said, "You step back, I will not pursue this matter, so let's stop here!"

"I have thanked Your Majesty for your kindness, and I will leave!"

After finishing speaking, Changsun Wuji turned around and walked towards Wangbei Pavilion.

As soon as he walked to the door, his Majesty Li Er's voice suddenly came again: "Wuji, Gong Ji, as a doctor of Kusi, but guards himself and steals. It’s not an exaggeration. It’s useless to keep such a person, it’s better to use him as a warning, and also to deter other officials. Do you know how to do it?”

Changsun Wuji couldn't help but twitched when he heard the words, and said silently, Chang He, this is His Majesty's intention, but I can't blame my eldest grandson Wuji for not keeping his promise.

Immediately, Changsun Wuji replied: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I know what to do. Three days later, the three divisions will announce the verdict in the tribunal. Gong Ji, the official treasury doctor, will be sentenced!"

His Majesty Li Er walked back to the dragon chair, sat down again, waved his hand to signal Changsun Wuji to step back, and said softly, "Yes!"

Changsun Wuji went out of Wangbei Pavilion, led by an eunuch out of Liangyi Hall, and went straight out of the palace.

His Majesty Li Er in Wangbei Pavilion seemed to be very tired at this moment, he leaned against the dragon chair and kneaded his eyebrows gently with his hands. After about a while, he stared at the door with bright eyes and said to himself:

"Perhaps what my father said is right, it is better to contain each other than to dominate the family. Ninth Five-Year Supreme, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, is destined to be a lonely family all his life. My father's surname is Li, and I am also surnamed Li. Blood is thicker than water, and we are one. If I would rather trust outsiders than my father, wouldn't it be the same as committing suicide?"

After finishing speaking, His Majesty Li Er suddenly got up from the dragon chair again, looked out of the North Pavilion and ordered: "Come here, let's drive to Yichun Palace, I should go to accompany my father and his old man."

"Here! Your Majesty is going out, driving Yichun Palace..."

Chapter 530 Welcome to the Tiance Mansion

In the evening of the next day, Guo Ye took a car to Gao's mansion in Chongyifang, and together with Gao Shilian, went to Changsun Wuji's mansion.

As night fell and the lights came down, the Changsun's mansion was brightly lit, with a lamp at every ten steps and a person at every hundred steps.

However, no matter how rich the eldest grandson's family is, no matter how noble and high-end, Guo Ye, who has seen the imperial palace and forbidden garden several times, has long been familiar with it.

Gao Shilian was familiar with Changsun's mansion, so he directly led Guo Ye to the small courtyard where he and Changsun Wuji conspired last time, the living room.

As soon as he arrived outside the living room, Guo Ye heard a burst of laughter from inside, mixed with low-pitched and high-pitched swearing, and the atmosphere sounded quite harmonious.

Gao Shilian stepped into the living room first, and shouted: "Haha, I'm late because of something, I'm late."

The eldest grandson Wuji got up to greet him, and jokingly said, "Uncle, why do you always act slowly? My lords came early."

"Master Gao is here, let us wait for a while."

"Ha, who made Mr. Gao have the highest seniority among us? Both Mr. Changsun and Empress Changsun have to call him uncle. Can he not be late?"

"In my opinion, this is what I learned from that bad old man Pei Ji, relying on the old and selling the old!"

"Hahaha……"

There was another round of laughter in the whole living room.

Guo Ye stepped over the threshold and glanced roughly. Besides Changsun Wuji, there were four other people.

The ages are about forty to fifty years old, some are standing, some are sitting, chatting with each other happily.

Gao Shilian hurriedly pulled Guo Ye closer to the middle of the living room, and said to several people: "Come on, let me introduce to you adults, this young man is amazing. Yu Shi Taizhong served as a supervisory censor. Hehe, even the old and cunning Yu Shinan of the Imperial College admired him. Hehe, this guy is now a soldier in the Ministry of War. He is a baron of Longxi County. ,Character……"

Gao Shilian clattered his introduction, then suddenly turned his head and asked Guo Ye, "Guo Ye, what do you say?"

Guo Ye shook his head and said timidly: "Master Gao, although the boy has passed the age of weak crown, he still has no words yet!"

"Ang? No words? A majestic military officer, Wailang, a man from Longxi County, has only a name and no words? This is unreasonable, unjustifiable!"

Gao Shilian shook his head again and again, and scolded: "You, you are too sloppy, too sloppy!"

Suddenly, a man next to Gao Shilian came out. He was about fifty years old. He was very refined and elegant, and he was very handsome.

The man said softly: "If Mr. Guo doesn't give up, how about Fang giving you a letter?"

Guo Ye didn't react for a while, Gao Shilian who was next to him suddenly laughed and said, "That's a good relationship. Mr. Fang is in charge of the Zhongshu Ministry, and he is appointed as the order of Zhongshu, which is deeply favored by His Majesty. Moreover, Mr. Fang is very knowledgeable, even Yu Shinan is very appreciative of Mr. Fang, if you can help Guo Ye get some characters and form a fate, it will be a good fortune for this kid!"
