Because Li Chengqian has two stunning wives.
Others will inevitably have miscellaneous thoughts, thinking that Li Chengqian is sanctimonious on the surface but in fact is a libertine who hangs around flowers all day long.
But little did they know that since ancient times, the most fearful and annoying thing for kings is that their children are addicted to drinking and sex.
And if Li Chengqian was really a libertine who wandered among flowers, would Li Shimin still love him so much?
In other words, if Li Chengqian dared to linger among the flowers, Li Shimin's three-foot ruler would have to be broken by more than a dozen.
Li Chengqian's performance has always satisfied Li Shimin.
Because he never indulged in drinking and having fun.
But today, Cheng Yaojin gave the Tubo envoy a plan, saying that Li Chengqian was lustful and asked the other party to find a dozen beauties to present to Li Chengqian, and Li Chengqian would treat them differently.
This doesn't need to be seen by others, any local in Tang Dynasty can tell that this is deliberately deceiving people.
It would be fine if the other party didn't do it, but if they did, the consequences would be quite terrible.
It is no small thing to let your favorite and most trusted son indulge in wine and flowers.
After all, Li Chengqian was the crown prince, the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
By tempting him astray, isn't it just to embarrass Li Shimin?
If Li Shimin learned about this, it would be strange if Li Shimin didn't drive those envoys out of the Tang Dynasty.
And Cheng Yaojin obviously didn't have a good trust either. He just didn't want these envoys to have an easy time.
Who told you to give gifts to everyone, but not to me, Lao Cheng?
When Li Chengqian learned about this, his stomach ached from laughing at him.
He looked directly at Cheng Yaojin and said, "Then the Tubo envoy really believed your lies?"
"That's natural."
"What I said, Old Cheng, completely bluffed the Tibetan envoy."
"Maybe they have collected the beauties now and are preparing to send them to you."
Cheng Yaojin chuckled and said: "And those beauties, just think of it as the share that I, Old Cheng, gave you."
"Don't!"
"Our own children and nephews must also settle the score."
Li Chengqian was also very sober.
He said straightly: "The ruby they gave you is truly priceless. Either we divide it equally, or I will go tell my father now and ask them to find me a dozen princesses!"
"hey-hey……"
Li Chengqian laughed evilly and said, "I'm afraid my father won't need to take action by then, and my two father-in-laws will have to eat you alive."
Not to mention Su Dan, his daughter is still the main concubine, and it doesn't matter how many concubines there are.
Because his daughter's position will never be shaken.
But it was different with Lu Qing.
After all, Lu Wanjie is a concubine.
If a bunch of concubines suddenly come to compete with Lu Wanjie for favor, will his daughter's life be difficult to live by?
Do you have to devote yourself to these insignificant palace battles all day long?
Lu Qing definitely didn't want to.
And Cheng Yaojin didn't expect that Li Chengqian would threaten him with this matter.
Cheng Yaojin immediately said: "Your Highness, this is your fault. What you said at the beginning was only 30-70."
"Then did I say who is third and who is seventh?"
Li Chengqian stretched out ten fingers and said: "I am seven, you are three!"
Holy shit!
Is this a fucking robber?
Cheng Yaojin was about to swear on the spot.
This guy really went too far.
Is there anyone who would take advantage of the situation?
Moreover, this guy wanted to snatch the gem before he even warmed it up. This was really too much.
Cheng Yaojin said: "Your Highness, you are a little unreasonable."
"yes."
"So I'm telling you, we're 50-50."
Li Chengqian said with a smile on his face: "Uncle Cheng, you have to admit it."
Li Chengqian has no other advantages except his strong learning ability.
For example, I learned Li Shimin's political ability and commanding ability.
I also learned Changsun Wuji’s wisdom and layout ability.
Of course, these are not Li Chengqian's best abilities.
To say that he is the most awesome, it is nothing more than learning from this guy Cheng Yaojin a magic trick that transcends ancient and modern times.
Of course, the short name for this skill is...shameless...
Cheng Yaojin also admitted defeat.
He taught it himself, who can he blame?
He said straightly: "Your Highness, I can share it equally with you, but no matter what, you have to wait until I sell the stone, right?"
Cheng Yaojin was also planning for himself.
After all, this stone is worth four thousand taels of gold. Even if you look at the entire Tang Dynasty, not everyone can afford this price.
If you want to sell it, you will definitely have to wait for a long time.
What if after three or five years, this guy forgets about it, then...
Cheng Yaojin's abacus crackled.
But with Li Chengqian's mind, can he not see his little ninety-nine?
Li Chengqian smiled and said, "Uncle Cheng, you don't need to worry about this matter."
"Your nephew can't afford four thousand taels of gold, but two thousand taels is really not a big deal..."
Li Chengqian waved his hand and shouted towards the door: "Come in!"
Immediately afterwards, eight soldiers from Qianzi Camp walked in from outside carrying three large boxes.
After placing the box on the ground, the soldiers immediately opened the box.
Under the reflection of the sun, the contents of the box shimmered with golden light, almost blinding Cheng Yaojin's dog eyes.
When I got closer and took a closer look, I was shocked to find that the box was filled with gold bricks.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Yaojin's face was full of horror.
He looked back at Li Chengqian and said, "Is this...all of this yours?"
"Of course not."
"In order to get these two thousand taels of gold, I spent a lot of money."
Even though Li Chengqian made a lot of money from doing business with the eldest son's family, people still have to eat and drink to survive.
Moreover, Li Chengqian has always been very generous to the people around him, and casual rewards are enough to drain the wealth of ordinary wealthy people.
Therefore, it is really difficult for him to come up with two thousand taels of gold at once.
But don't forget.
He has a wealthy father-in-law and an uncle who is extremely wealthy.
After searching their hands, it would be easy to borrow several thousand taels of gold.
Li Chengqian said straight away: "But no matter what, I brought these two thousand taels of gold, give me the gems!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand in front of Cheng Yaojin.
At this time, Cheng Yaojin was also a little bit unable to get off the tiger.
His original intention was not to hand over the gem.
Now that Li Chengqian has sent the money, what else can he do?
Even if you grit your teeth and hold on, you still have to hand it over.
Moreover, having two thousand taels of gold is better than nothing.
What's more, he also knew that Li Chengqian had earned these two thousand taels of gold.
If you want to make more money in the future, you have to rely on Li Chengqian, right?
Therefore, Cheng Yaojin did not hesitate for too long before handing the gem to Li Chengqian.
He looked at the gem reluctantly and said, "Your Highness, where are you going to send this gem?"
He thought that if Li Chengqian sold it at a low price, he might be able to buy it back.
When the value of the gems increases, he will make a fortune.
But obviously, his wishful thinking went wrong.
Li Chengqian said straightly: "The queen mother's phoenix crown is still missing a gem. This one is just right..."
In an instant, Cheng Yaojin was like a deflated ball.
He doesn't have the guts to snatch things from Empress Changsun...
