Today's Tang Dynasty is free from external enemies and is peaceful internally.
Not only was the curfew policy that had been implemented for several years canceled, but the court regulations were also changed.
From once a day at the beginning, it was changed to once every two days.
The time for ministers to go to court is fixed.
You can only arrive early, not late.
Once you are late, you may be scolded and fined, or you may be sentenced to jail.
Before the morning dynasty begins, all civil and military officials must line up in front of the Tai Chi Hall at dawn.
The eunuch on duty would stand by with a lantern to prevent the blind guy from falling to death or injury.
And on the eve of the morning court, Li Chengqian, who had been away from the court for a long time, also appeared in front of people's eyes at the right time.
This was the first time he went to court after being crowned prince.
Therefore, when many ministers saw him coming, they came over to chat with him as soon as possible.
But it's just chatting, but it's just flattering.
For example: "Your Highness, after you came back from the Western Regions, your style is even more amazing than before."
Another example: "Your Highness, the things done in the Western Regions have been done beautifully, and it has really demonstrated the prestige of the people of the Tang Dynasty."
Li Chengqian smiled at these words and continued walking forward.
As the eldest son of the empire and also the crown prince, his position was at the front of the crowd.
And when passing by Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji suddenly whispered: "Today's court meeting may not be peaceful."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian paused.
But he didn't stop, he continued to move forward, walked to his position and stood up.
By this time, the two princes Li Tai and Li Ke had already taken their positions.
Seeing him coming, Li Tai and Li Ke looked at each other.
Immediately, Li Tai was the first to speak: "I think I haven't congratulated my brother yet. I am so happy that my father has granted me the title of crown prince."
"There's nothing to congratulate about."
"Whether we want to be a prince or not, we are all princes, and we all have to share the worries of our father."
"The only difference may be that after becoming the prince, you have to live in a different place."
Li Chengqian looked back at Li Tai, and then said: "However, I really don't want to move."
What he said really came from his heart.
Regardless of whether he becomes the prince or not, what he wants to do is to benefit this era and the people of this era.
Therefore, it makes no difference whether you are a prince or not.
And the last sentence he said was true to his heart.
He really doesn't want to move, especially moving into the palace, which is what he is most reluctant to do.
However, these words were different in the ears of Li Tai and Li Ke.
This clearly shows that you are getting a good deal and still selling well.
Li Kezhi sneered and said: "Brother Huang's noble character is enough for us brothers to learn from him for a lifetime."
"yes."
Li Tai also followed up and said: "Brother Huang has a mind for the world and a righteous heart. I really admire my younger brother."
Li Chengqian was also happy after hearing the strange words of these two people.
He turned around directly, looked at the two of them and said, "You don't have to be so weird here. If you have any dissatisfaction, just say it."
"It is the father's intention to make me the crown prince."
"If you are not satisfied, you can go to your father and tell him."
Li Chengqian rubbed his fingers and said, "However, my two royal brothers, I have to remind you."
"It's best not to show off some unsavory little tricks and make them look embarrassing."
"Otherwise, I will definitely let you know what moves are worthy of being on the stage."
After saying this, he specifically looked up at Li Ke.
But just this glance made Li Ke feel cold in his heart. He was also stunned on the spot, and he didn't even dare to blink his eyelids for a long time.
To be honest, Li Chengqian is really different now than before.
It turns out that he is not a bully when others see him, but he is also someone who just smiles after being bullied.
But now, just one look from him was enough to send chills all over.
When Li Ke looked at Li Chengqian, he even felt that he was not being watched by someone, but by an extremely ferocious beast.
At that moment, Li Ke broke out in cold sweat.
It wasn't until Eunuch Zhou pushed open the palace door and shouted to go to court that he suddenly came to his senses.
Seeing his lost look, Li Tai couldn't help but said: "Brother Sanhuang, what's wrong with you?"
"No...nothing..."
Li Ke took a long breath and regained his confident look on his face.
He glanced at Li Chengqian's back, and when he recalled what happened just now, he always felt a little unreal.
It seemed like that scene was an illusion.
Li Ke took a deep breath and said, "How is the arrangement you arranged going?"
Hearing this, Li Tai smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not get any good results from him in court today."
Li Ke nodded, and then walked into the Tai Chi Hall side by side with Li Tai.
…
Tai Chi Hall.
Li Shimin sat on the main seat.
Looking at the people in the audience, especially Li Chengqian who had changed into a bright yellow prince uniform, he couldn't help but smile a little.
If someone else is canonized as a prince, it will take a while to prepare the clothes, not to mention all the complicated procedures such as the coronation ceremony.
From front to back, it will take at least half a year to declare the completion ceremony.
But Li Shimin's plan to confer Li Chengqian as the crown prince was not planned for a day or two.
Not only had the coronation ceremony been prepared, but six sets of the crown prince's uniform had also been made.
What's more, Li Shimin even prepared the Jiuyi Xuanyi that Li Chengqian would wear when attending the coronation ceremony.
This shows how far Li Shimin has planned this matter.
And after he glanced at Li Chengqian, he waved his hand and said: "If there is something to do, we will leave the court. If there is nothing, we will retreat."
"My lord, I have something to report."
Following the words, Zhu Suiliang stepped out of the queue.
Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "Dengshan, what do you want to say?"
"Recently, all the families from Henan have jointly signed a memorial."
Chu Suiliang said: "I hope your majesty will severely punish the current prince, Li Chengqian."
Punish Li Chengqian severely?
What is supposed to come will definitely come.
Li Shimin frowned and looked at Chu Suiliang and said, "What's the reason?"
Chu Suiliang pursed his lips and said: "The reason they gave is that His Royal Highness is in power in Liangzhou and is militaristic and provoking border wars without the permission of the court."
"As a result, the land of Shenzhou, which had just restored peace, once again fell into the flames of war."
"And during the war, His Highness the Crown Prince's behavior was even more criticized."
"With no regard for the laws of nature and human ethics, he carried out troops to massacre the city and kill innocent people indiscriminately, which really makes people feel sad and angry."
"And they also said..."
Chu Suiliang raised his head and glanced at Li Shimin.
"Look what I do?"
"Keep talking, what they said, I really want to hear what they can say."
When he said this, Li Shimin's smile began to turn cold.
Of course Chu Suiliang knew that Li Shimin was angry.
He gritted his teeth, lowered his head and said, "If your Majesty does not severely punish the prince, in the future, none of the Taoist scholars in Henan will become an official."
Hearing this, Li Shimin really laughed.
"Yeah."
“These people are really awesome.”
"They actually started to threaten me..."
Li Chengqian's method of doing things may be a bit extreme.
But is it someone else's turn to teach you how to punish your son?
Is it someone else’s turn to threaten me?
