After all, Li Shimin's last words were what he wanted to say to Li Chengqian the most.
The only reason was that he wanted him to comfort Empress Changsun and not to hold a grudge against him because of this matter.
After understanding the key, Li Chengqian couldn't help but feel helpless.
He was really becoming more and more speechless towards me as an old man.
We are all biological fathers and biological sons, so why should we just say it openly? Does it have to be so roundabout?
But he was speechless, he still had to do things.
After leaving Ganlu Palace, Li Chengqian went to Kunning Palace instead.
When Li Chengqian came over, he saw the unique look of the wolf mother.
I saw her rocking the crib with one hand to coax the child to sleep, and holding an ancient book in her other hand to read.
Behind him, there were three or five palace maids helping Queen Changsun take care of her hair.
"My son, please pay homage to your mother..."
"no."
Empress Changsun raised her eyes slightly, and then said: "Why are you so free today and come to my place?"
"Of course I miss you."
Li Chengqian walked forward with a smile on his face, and went directly past the palace maid's work to help Wolf Mother continue to take care of her loose bun.
Hearing this, Queen Changsun couldn't help laughing.
She said: "You guys, when I lived in the palace earlier, I didn't see you coming over when I had free time."
"Now I live in the East Palace, only three to five steps away. I still want to go there."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian curled his lips and said, "It is only natural that a son misses his mother."
"I didn't come here before. That's because whenever I see my father, he always leaves a lot of trivial things for me to do."
"Nowadays, I have too many trivial things to do, and I really don't have enough time to do it."
"Why don't you just finish your work today and come over quickly to see your mother?"
At this point, Li Chengqian also changed the topic and asked directly: "How is the queen feeling recently? Are you eating well? Are you sleeping well? Have you had any gas problems again?"
Listening to Li Chengqian's rapid-fire questions, Empress Changsun couldn't help but look back at him.
"There's something wrong with what you're saying."
"To show hospitality for nothing is to be considered a traitor or a thief..."
Empress Changsun dusted off the dust on her clothes and said, "What's wrong? You made a mistake again. Do you want your mother to help you go to your father to plead for mercy?"
"It's really not my fault..."
Li Chengqian also said with some embarrassment: "It was during the morning court this morning... uh..."
"Um?"
Seeing him hesitating like this, Queen Changsun was also a little confused.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hesitating?"
Empress Changsun looked back at Li Chengqian, raised her eyebrows and said, "Is it possible that in addition to missing your mother, you also miss the ruler in your mother's hand?"
Well……
My dear wolf mother, can we talk carefully if we have something to say?
Li Chengqian couldn't help but complain in his heart, what the hell is this?
One is that after making the family prosperous, they must bring the family back to earth.
The other one turned a blind eye. Although he followed the others' arrangements, in the end he asked his own son to come and take the blame.
Li Chengqian was really speechless by these two old gangsters.
But now facing Empress Changsun, he didn't dare to say anything else.
Therefore, he could only tell the truth: "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that something happened with my uncle, and the eldest son's family is probably going to suffer a disaster like a storm."
"What?"
Hearing this, Queen Changsun was also very surprised, and she even stood up involuntarily.
However, she has always drawn a clear line with the eldest son's family, and has also strictly ordered the eldest grandson's family to do things outside in their own name.
After all, since ancient times, the impact of harem interference in politics has been very bad.
Others don't say it, but they say that this magnificent man, how could he have come to the end if he didn't have those harems involved in politics and his relatives holding power?
While Queen Changsun was on the throne, she also set standards for herself.
One is to curb the eldest grandson's family and prevent relatives from gaining power from the root.
It can be said that Li Shimin was completely responsible for the expansion of the Changsun family. At the same time, Changsun Wuji also had his own extraordinary talents, which enabled him to achieve his current status.
Secondly, Empress Changsun also never interfered in court affairs unless necessary.
This can also be seen from the fact that Li Chengqian was constantly targeted in the court, and Queen Changsun, his own mother, never said a word.
But after all, she is also from the eldest grandson's family.
How could she sit still when she heard that something had happened to the eldest grandson's family?
But soon, Queen Changsun reacted.
She sat down again and said slowly: "What do you want to tell me about the matters in the court?"
"If it's anything else, I naturally won't tell my mother."
"I also know that my mother doesn't like hearing about these power-playing things."
"But now isn't this my uncle and my mother's natal family?"
Li Chengqian sighed and said: "And if we can trace the origin of this matter, it turns out that he is a good boy..."
"Blame you?"
Queen Changsun asked with some confusion: "Where do you start with this statement?"
"It's because my son and I caused the trouble for my father's policy of raising tigers and devouring wolves when he was managing the family."
"Back then, the aristocratic families were in trouble. Although my father was sitting in the court, he was like a three-year-old child. The government affairs of the court were basically controlled by those aristocratic families."
"As long as the father does not comply with their wishes, they will unite and fight against the father."
"But as the saying goes, a century-old dynasty and a thousand-year-old family are all passed down from generation to generation for hundreds or even thousands of years."
"Wanting to govern a family is equivalent to going down a deep well to get ice, and you still don't know how deep the water is."
"In the end, there was nothing I could do, so I had to tell my father about the strategy of feeding the tiger and swallowing the wolf."
"It is nothing more than making one or more aristocratic families dominate, and annexing and annihilating those deep-rooted aristocratic families from the root."
Li Chengqian pursed his lips and said, "My son is also thinking that the eldest grandson's family is my maternal family after all, and it is my mother's natal family after all, so I am the one I can trust the most."
"Then I joined forces with my uncle to do business and make troubles all over the country..."
Queen Changsun has heard of this.
But because it looked like nothing, she didn't ask much, and she didn't know the specific details.
All she knew was that the Sun family had experienced an inexplicable rise these days.
But I didn't expect that this kid's idea was behind all this.
After hearing this, Queen Changsun also changed her expression.
She said bluntly: "Then what?"
"Then……"
"Then there are more and more people in Changsun's family, and their quality is also different."
"I've been getting into trouble a lot lately, and it's really unjustifiable."
Li Chengqian looked at Empress Changsun and said with a guilty conscience: "In order to solve this problem, my uncle planted several shit pots on himself."
"And today at the court, my father has ordered Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate the matter..."
Originally, Li Chengqian thought he would suffer the thunderous wrath of Queen Changsun.
Who would have thought that after hearing the last sentence, Queen Changsun's expression softened a lot.
She chuckled and said, "So, you came here today to protect your father from thunder?"
Um?
Li Chengqian looked at Queen Changsun with surprise.
Oh my god, when did this wolf mother like me have such a strong ability to understand?
