As an emperor, Li Shimin's vigilance instinct was fully activated at this moment!
The emperor's basic quality is doubt.
No matter how much you trust someone, you still need to be suspicious at some point.
The sum total of these six people is a collective that holds great military and political power. If they want to do something evil, he is not sure that he can withstand it.
Especially when Xu Fenglei became the leader of this group...
"Your Majesty is joking."
Xu Fenglei waved his hand and said with a smile,
"How can I have such a big face? All the princes came here with requests and asked me difficult questions!"
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, and the curiosity in his heart rose, overwhelming his suspicion.
"oh?"
He continued,
"What do you mean? What problems did they give you?"
Xu Fenglei pointed at Fang Yiai, Changsun Chong and other children.
"It's not because they see me teaching well that they want to send their sons to study under my door."
He said helplessly,
"These guys treat me as a retired veteran!"
"It's not that I don't want to teach, it's just that I don't have enough energy to take care of so much..."
When Li Shimin heard this, he immediately looked at Yu Chigong and others.
Seeing their embarrassed expressions, he felt relieved.
Okay, the misunderstanding is cleared!
As long as these old gangsters are not behind closed doors plotting to make some big news, it doesn't matter to him if they are doing other things.
"I see."
Li Er teased,
"You guys are smart enough to know how to find teachers for your children."
After a pause, he raised his eyebrows again and said:
"It's just that I asked you, are you a little too courageous? You have decided to target Xu Fenglei! Do you know who he is? He is the Prince's Young Master!"
"You guys are shouting one after another, young masters. Do you know that the greatest responsibility of young masters is to teach the prince well?"
Everyone: "..."
After being reprimanded, the princes lowered their heads one after another, showing shame.
"Just by teaching a few of the emperor's heirs, I feel that they are overqualified and underused. The talent of listening and understanding is enough to help the country!"
Li Shimin hummed softly,
"Human energy is limited. If you ask those boys in your family to take away some of it, how can Duke Xu contribute to the Tang Dynasty? How can he leave his name in history?"
"I understand that you are not a teacher. You want to be a famous minister and leave a mark in the history books! What are you doing, instead of delaying my future?"
After spraying everyone, he looked at Xu Fenglei again.
"Listen clearly, I am not telling you, you are just too talkative!"
He pointed out,
"In the future, if you encounter such unreasonable requests, just refuse them. If they dare to pester you, ask the servants to kick them out!"
"A bunch of old guys, so shameless!"
When Xu Fenglei heard this, he also smiled.
"Your Majesty, it's over, it's over."
He said hurriedly,
"It's not that serious. A few old friends came to visit to reminisce about old times and pay New Year greetings. Others were just mentioned in passing..."
"Here comes someone——"
"Look at the tea, take out the best tea in the house and make it!"
"Yes." Xiao Zi responded quickly, turned around and left.
After all, he came from Tiance Mansion and was fairly familiar with the emperor and empress, so he was able to remain calm at this moment.
Several other servants and slaves who were recruited from the rear were afraid to breathe at the moment. They bent down and shivered.
"Master, happy New Year! I wish you a happy New Year!"
Li Chengqian ran up quickly, knelt down, and kowtowed to Xu Fenglei.
"Happy New Year, Master, and my disciple wishes you a Happy New Year!"
"Master..."
"Father Xi..."
The five royal heirs, led by Prince Li Chengqian, knelt down and saluted respectfully.
"Hahaha, okay, okay..."
Xu Fenglei hurriedly helped the children up and said with a smile,
"I'm very determined... Look at me, I didn't know you were here today, and I didn't even prepare a red envelope!"
"This is really..."
He imagined the scene of Li Chengqian giving him New Year greetings, but he didn't expect it to be today!
Or the emperor and empress came to the house with their children in person!
This was so grand that he couldn't even handle it.
"No need for red envelopes, and the kids don't need them either."
Changsun Wugao said with a smile,
"I came to your place today just because I wanted to do it on the spur of the moment. I just went to worship heaven and ancestors in Yuanqiu, and I thought since I'm out of town, I might as well let the children wish you a happy New Year while I'm here for a stroll."
"I was very busy in the past few years, and I haven't had a good time this year. Now that it's the new dynasty and the new year, I have to be more careful."
"The so-called Lord of Heaven and Earth, Lord and Master, after bowing to the first four, you, the master, should also bow to me, right?"
When Xu Fenglei heard this, he shouted that he couldn't bear it.
"The Queen's words have offended me..."
He smiled bitterly and said,
"It is my duty to educate the prince and the others. Now that it has been made so grand, I feel that the burden on me is even heavier..."
On the first day of the new year, the emperor and empress came in person, and the emperor kowtowed.
Throughout the ages, which master has been treated like this?
"It's better to be heavier! These kids all depend on you to train them."
Li Shimin said seriously,
"I'm getting busier and busier these days, and I'm becoming more and more neglectful of Cheng Qian and the others. Only if you keep an eye on me can I rest assured."
"come--"
He waved behind him.
A row of convoys suddenly appeared, and the guards were seen filing in carrying New Year's goods and moving them into the mansion!
One crop, another crop.
One crop, another crop!
The moving guards were dizzying.
The New Year's goods and gifts piled up and piled up, piled up and piled up, until they piled up into a mountain!
Four or five times more than Changsun Wuji, who gave the most gifts!
"hiss--"
Cheng Yaojin hissed, secretly shocked and said,
"Your Majesty is indeed Your Majesty, this..."
"This is too luxurious!"
When the royal family took action, it was indeed extraordinary!
The servants in the house were all stunned at this moment, staring blankly at the pile of gifts getting higher and higher, their expressions changing from shock to numbness...
"Your Majesty, empress, this, this, this, this..."
Not to mention the servant, even Xu Fenglei was almost stupid and kept saying,
"This is too expensive! How can anyone send so many New Year gifts?"
"Stop, stop it!"
Li Shimin laughed.
"Is it expensive? I just want you to feel valuable and the burden on you is heavier!"
He said happily,
"To me, these are nothing, just think of them as one year's tuition for the princes!"
"It's the first year of Zhenguan. I hope you won't slack off so that you can teach the emperors well. In a hundred years from now, you will be the first Grand Master of the Tang Dynasty!"
Everyone: "!!!"
Damn it, it was just a hint at first, but now the emperor directly promised it himself!
As long as you work hard, you can be awarded the title of Grand Master!
Master!
Everyone present knows the weight of these two words! This is not just as simple as being an extremely human minister...
Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others almost shed tears of envy...
And Xu Fenglei was also stunned at this moment.
