The next day.
Tai Chi Hall.
Li Shimin was concentrating on reviewing the memorial. This memorial was relatively long and had just been handed over by Li Jing.
This memorial elaborated on Li Jing's plan to march into the northwest, as well as various matters such as personnel arrangements, money and food.
Next to him, Wang De was still chattering about the activities of his three sons in the past few days.
"The King of Yue is studying like crazy. He has visited all the great scholars in Chang'an City and discussed knowledge with them. The great scholars all admire the King of Yue's knowledge."
"But the King of Yue is still not impatient. He studies until midnight every day and gets up to practice martial arts when the rooster crows in the morning."
"It is said that the King of Yue invited two veterans of the Qianniu Guard yesterday, and the two veterans were defeated by the King of Yue..."
While Li Shimin listened, he made circles and crosses on the memorial, and occasionally made comments on the side and wrote his own opinions.
Hearing that Li Tai was so crazy about studying, he couldn't help but frown. He only slept for two hours a night?
This is not possible. He is still young and it is time for his body to grow. How can his body bear such a big burden?
"You go to Qingque later and tell him that studying is a good thing, but too much is not enough. The body is more important than knowledge. Don't hurt the body."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"The prince is in the East Palace and is studying every day. However, yesterday he beat a young eunuch and broke his nose. The Queen learned about it and went to teach the prince a lesson. The prince seemed unconvinced and said that Your Majesty and the Queen eccentric."
"However, today he handed over a letter of apology."
"Your Majesty, please take a look."
Li Shimin put down the paper in his hand. He had finished reviewing it and was generally satisfied. Li Jing was not smooth, but he was a person who strived for perfection in everything he did. He could always see where he shined.
"Show me..."
Li Shimin opened the prince's confession and read it slowly.
He has good literary talent, gorgeous rhetoric, and sincere words. He has realized the mistake of his wanton behavior as a prince.
At the end of the memorial, the prince begged Li Shimin to forgive him, saying that he was willing to use practical actions to prove that he was sincerely repentant.
He asked Li Shimin to let him leave the palace to understand the sentiments of the people and experience their sufferings.
He also said that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Only by knowing the sufferings of the people can one be a qualified prince.
All the princes are studying hard, strengthening themselves, and preparing to devote their lives to the Tang Dynasty in the future.
As the prince, he should work harder and be an example to his younger brothers.
After Li Shimin read Li Chengqian's apology memorial, he even didn't believe it. This was a confession written by Qian'er. Is this really what Qian'er was thinking?
However, when he saw that the handwriting was indeed Li Chengqian's, he cursed himself secretly. Gan'er truly regretted it. As a father, he should believe in his children instead of doubting them.
Both sons studied so hard and thought about the future of the Tang Dynasty, which made Li Shimin very happy.
So he took up a pen and wrote in the apology memorial: "Now that you realize your mistake, let's prove it with practical actions!"
Finally, after thinking for a moment, he added: "Qian'er, father believes in you."
"What is Ke'er doing recently? Why haven't I seen him for several days?"
Wang De smiled flatteringly and said: "Your Majesty, you just met His Highness the King of Shu in heaven and on earth three days ago."
Li Shimin patted his forehead and felt that ten days and a half had passed.
"What is Ke'er doing recently?"
Wang De's eyes lit up, as if this was the most important thing he wanted to tell His Majesty.
"Yesterday, His Highness the King of Shu took His Majesty the Emperor and Concubine Wan Gui to pay homage to the King of Chu. His Highness the King of Shu also invited three purple-robed Taoists from the Taoist school..."
Li Shimin knew that Li Ke took the Supreme Emperor and Concubine Wan Gui to pay homage to King Chu. It was originally arranged by him.
As a result, Li Yuan had someone come and tell him that Li Shimin would no longer be in charge this year, as Da Sun had already made arrangements for them.
So Li Shimin was happy and carefree, and there were many things in the court waiting for him to deal with.
Just hearing that his son actually invited three purple-robed Taoists, Li Shimin suddenly raised his head and looked at Wang De: "Wait, what did you say, purple-robed Taoist?"
"In the entire Tang Dynasty, there are only three people who can wear purple robes, Pingyangzi, Qingyangzi, Yuyangzi..."
"Your Majesty guessed it right, His Highness the King of Shu invited these three Taoist immortal masters."
Li Shimin frowned so hard, how could it be possible?
These three Taoist masters generally do not leave the mountain.
After he ascended the throne of God, he wanted to invite the ancestor of the Li family, the founder of Taoism, back to the ancestral temple to worship him, but the three purple-robed Taoists disagreed.
He also said that if they wanted to invite their ancestor back, they would have to kill all the disciples and grandsons of their ancestor in the world and then step on the bodies of the three of them.
This matter went on for a long time, and in the end he could only acknowledge his ancestor verbally, but failed to invite his ancestor back to the palace.
Now when those three people saw Li Shimin, they didn't look good on him. How could his son invite those three people to do things for his brother, King Chu?
Li Shimin thought about it, but he couldn't figure it out. What kind of ecstasy soup did his son pour into those three people?
If his son really has this ability, maybe he can really invite his ancestor back.
By then, the Li family of the royal family will be the serious descendants of Li Er. Who in the world dares to say that the Li family of the royal family is not noble?
"Hahaha……"
"Where are the three of them now? I would like to sit with them..."
Li Shimin had a smile on his face and wanted to chat with the three masters and have a chat.
"This... the old slave doesn't know."
Li Shimin smiled and said: "If there is anything else, keep talking!"
Wang De quickly bowed and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Shu also invited the old Zen Master Huiren and several other Buddhist Zen masters to set up an altar for the King of Chu."
Li Shimin: "..."
Li Shimin almost choked. When he offered sacrifices to his ancestors, he never invited the Buddhist and Taoist families to set up an altar for his ancestors.
My short-lived brother was so lucky that he was jointly established by the Buddhist and Taoist families, mainly by the big bosses of the Buddhist and Taoist families.
Keer is awesome!
"Wang De, go and ask Li Shu to investigate. I'm very curious about how Ke'er invited the two big guys from Buddhism and Taoism."
At this time, Li Shu walked into the hall. Li Shimin saw Li Shu's anxious face and asked, "What's going on?"
"Your Majesty, please see me."
"Your Majesty, I have received news that all Taoist believers came out of the mountain yesterday."
Li Shimin stood up with a sigh and asked with an ugly face: "Why?"
Taoist priests all over the world come out...
In prosperous times, Confucianism was used to maintain order, but in troubled times, Taoist priests came down the mountain.
Li Shu bowed and said: "We don't know yet, but according to the news, all the Taoist believers left the Taoist temple where they practiced, went down the mountain to save the people, and hung pots to help the world."
"Quickly, call Yuan Tiangang to come see me..."
Li Shimin no longer dared to remain calm. With a dark face, he walked back and forth in the hall, waiting for Yuan Tiangang's answer.
Wang De looked at His Majesty's dark face and was about to get angry, so he decisively shut his mouth. Now that he was praising His Majesty the King of Shu, he might suffer.
Originally, he wanted to praise the deeds of King Shu again!
