My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 61: Concubine Yang's Admonition

Not long after Li Yin and Cheng Yaojin left, Wei Chigong walked out of the Tai Chi Hall. The scorching sun was shining in the sky, with a tinge of heat, but Wei Chigong's heart was as cold as a cold night in deep winter at this time, Li Shimin didn't sternly Instead of scolding him, he kindly asked him what he thought of Han Xin, the founding minister of the Han Dynasty.

  Wei Chigong is a stupid person to be able to achieve today's position. Li Shimin is warning him not to take credit for himself, otherwise he will end up no different from Han Xin back then.

Wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, Wei Chigong suddenly thought of Qin Shubao, who was as famous as himself. Only then did he understand why the emperor was ill and refused to go to court immediately after he ascended the throne. It turned out that he had already seen through the emperor's feelings for these leading generals. Being apprehensive, I also understood why Li Jing was reprimanded by the emperor after defeating the Turks and returning to the court. He was just reminding these veterans that this world belongs to him, Li Shimin.

   "My lord, what's wrong with you?" After leaving the Chengtian Gate, the servants of the Duke's Mansion immediately greeted him. Wei Chigong's pale face made him startled.

  Wei Chigong climbed onto the horse with difficulty, and said: "Go back to the Duke's mansion, and from today on, tell me that I am sick, and thank you behind closed doors!"

   "Master, what are you!" The old follower, who has been with Wei Chigong for some years, couldn't help asking.

Looking at the deep palace gate, Wei Chigong smiled wryly and said: "Flying birds do their best to hide their bows, but cunning rabbits are dead and running dogs. The emperor is already very kind to me. I, Wei Chigong, are so stupid to think of him as the king of Qin." !”…

Yuchi Baolin was imprisoned, Wei Chigong and Li Shimin resigned from the official position after a long talk, and the story of being sick at home and thanking guests behind closed doors quickly spread in the court. The reason why the news spread so quickly was all because of Li Yin's grand Tang Shang Daily, when Li Yin brought the newspaper to Li Shimin for review that day, Li Shimin asked Li Yin to publish the information about Yuchi Baolin's abduction of the princess in the newspaper, and after Wei Chigong resigned from office, he asked Li Yin to publish the news This article was also added, which meant a warning to the courtiers.

  In Duke Yi’s mansion, a middle-aged man with white temples was standing in front of the hall and was holding a short branch to tease the parrot in the cage. At this moment, the butler came over and handed him a copy of Shengtang Shangbao.

   "Hey, Wei Chigong, this old guy, really won't turn back until he bumps into the south wall!" After reading the newspaper, Qin Shubao sighed, and asked again: "How is Huaiyu now?"

   "Master, the Eldest Young Master has served as the instructor of the Nursing Academy in Prince Liang's mansion. It is said that King Liang treats him like a brother!" the housekeeper replied.

   "This kid's temper is exactly the same as when I was young, and I can't bear the slightest grievance. It's okay, instead of staying here and becoming a rich and noble son, it's better to go and hone with King Liang!"

   "The master said so!"

Yuchi Baolin is now a stinker. Cheng Huailiang's behavior of protecting the princess has greatly increased Li Shimin's favor. Without Wei Chigong as a general in the army, the status of Cheng Yaojin, the founding veteran, has been highlighted. After a few days of calm, Li Shimin It was ordered that Princess Qinghe be married to Cheng Huailiang, and Cheng Yaojin was also granted the title of Duke Lu, with the same status and prestige for a while.

  Cheng's Mansion, now Lu Guogong's Mansion, Cheng Huailiang was lying on the bed, at this time, Cheng Yaojin walked in with Li Yin.

"Huailiang, let's see who's coming!" After Li Shimin formally bestowed the marriage, Cheng Yaojin's face was flushed when he went to court. , but there is only one thing that has always been a pain in his heart. Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Li Jing are all civil servants and generals who came from the family of officials, but he Cheng Yaojin. It was very contemptible, that's why he went up and down to try to become a member of this noble family through marriage, and now he finally got his wish.

   "Your Highness Sixth!" Seeing Li Yin coming in, Cheng Huailiang propped himself up and prepared to get out of bed to salute.

  Li Yin quickly walked a few steps, helped Cheng Huailiang to lie down, and joked: "We are almost married now, so we don't need so many etiquette."

   Cheng Huailiang listened, and giggled: "Your Highness is always Your Highness, Cheng Huailiang must not forget etiquette!"

   "Come on, you, I just stopped by to check on your injuries. I didn't expect that Yuchi Baolin was so vicious that he allowed his servants to hurt people with bows and arrows. I was a little negligent." Li Yin said.

  Cheng Yaojin said: "Your Highness don't need to feel guilty, even if he receives two more arrows, it's worth it."

   "Yes, Your Highness, Huai Liang is willing to die for Princess Qinghe if she can win Princess Qinghe's favor!" Cheng Huailiang said.

   "You should tell Qinghe about this!" Li Yin stood up and said, "I still have to enter the palace, and I won't be staying soon!"

   "Did something happen?" Cheng Huailiang asked when he saw Li Yin's tired expression.

  Li Yin said: "Sizi was frightened that day, and it took a few days to burn it. This is my fault after all. I went to the palace to see her!"

   "Your Highness, Huailiang really made things difficult for you!" Cheng Huailiang said with reddened eye circles and choked up.

   Li Yin smiled and said: "I am not only for you, but also for Qinghe!" After finishing speaking, Li Yin walked out.

On Suzaku Street, Li Yin went to Tai Chi Palace alone. Speaking of which, he felt very guilty about the fact that his son was frightened. If he still had the mentality of taking advantage of these people when he first came to Tang Dynasty , he gradually understood that he attached more and more importance to these family members and friends, and he had few factors for himself in the birth of this plan. It was Qinghe's tears that moved him and made him fall into this vortex, but he did not regret it , Reason told him that if he wanted to protect these family members, he must have the power to be feared. He would not fight for it, but he would create a power for himself that anyone would be afraid of. Not a king but a king.

  Just as he was thinking, the Chengtian Gate of Taiji Palace was approaching, so Li Yin took a wooden box from Honghai'er and entered the Taiji Palace.

  After Zhao Kai notified, Li Yin entered Yanxi Palace, Sizi and Li Zhi were chasing and fighting beside the eldest grandson empress, when they saw Li Yin coming in, they all ran over with a smile, "Sixth brother!"

  Li Yan smiled and took one with each hand, and came to Empress Changsun and said: "My sons and ministers see the mother!"

   "Let's get back on your feet, Min'er, you don't have to feel too guilty about that incident, it was just an accident!" During the past few days when Sizi was ill, Li Yin came to visit every day, so Queen Changsun persuaded him.

"It's my son's fault after all!" Li Min knew that if it hadn't been for Sizi and Li Zhi, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun would not have been so angry. There is no basic ability to know people and make good use of them.

   After finishing speaking, Li Yin took out the 20cm long wooden box, and said, "Son, what did Brother Six bring?"

  Xi Zi was just recovering from a serious illness, her face was still a little pale, she hugged the wooden box, opened the lid, and saw many cylindrical things wrapped in paper, and a trace of milk fragrance was evaporating from it.

   "Sixth brother, what is this!" Sizi's big eyes were full of curiosity.

  Li Yin said: "It's something more delicious than candied haws!" Empress Changsun laughed and said, "What weird thing did you come up with?"

  Take one out of the box, Li Yin peeled off the top layer of paper, and said, "This is called Big White Rabbit Toffee, come on, Sizi, open your mouth!"

   "It's so sweet!" Sizi put the sugar in her mouth according to her words, and the rich sweet taste entered her mouth, she cried happily.

   Li Zhi looked at Sizi, his saliva was about to flow out, and he said anxiously: "Brother Six, I want it too!"

   Li Yin also dialed one for him, stood up, and handed the wooden box to Empress Changsun: "Mother, you can try it too!"

   "I'm not a child!" Empress Changsun glared at Li Yin. The candied haws from last time became another snack in the palace, which made the concubines and princesses full of praise, not knowing what this is.

  Which woman doesn't like snacks with red makeup? Even though Empress Changsun said so, she pinched one and put it in her mouth, "It tastes really good!" After chewing a few mouthfuls, Empress Changsun praised.

  Since Si Zi and Li Zhi finished eating one, they clamored to eat again. Li Yin said, "Although this candy is delicious, children shouldn't eat too much at one time. It's not good for teeth!"

  After listening to Li Yin's words, Si Zi and Li Zhi were like deflated balls. Li Yin stopped teasing them and said, "But it's okay to eat a few yuan at a time!"

   "Sixth brother is really bad!" Sizi pouted and said angrily, her cute appearance made Li Yin and Empress Changsun laugh.

   After playing with the two little guys for a while, Li Yin resigned from the eldest grandson queen and went to Ziyun Pavilion.

"Sixth brother, how is Huailiang's injury?" Qinghe asked as soon as Li Yin entered the door. She used to play and play with other princesses at this time, but now she stays honestly in Ziyun Pavilion every day. As soon as Li Yin came , he asked Cheng Huailiang's injury.

   Concubine Yang was sitting in the room reading a book, Li Yin said: "Concubine Mother, look, you will only pass the door next year, now you are like a little daughter-in-law!"

   "Sixth brother!" Qinghe was very dissatisfied with Li Yin's behavior of making small reports, and said angrily.

   Concubine Yang gave him a sideways look, "I messed with your sister as soon as I came here, how did you act like a brother!"

  Li Yin sneered and said: "That little physical injury is nothing to Cheng Huailiang, he is almost ready to get off the road now, and it is estimated that he will be fine after a month or so!"

  Qinghe relaxed his mind, thinking about something, his face suddenly turned red, looking like a little girl.

"You went to Yanxi Hall again?" Concubine Yang put down the book and said suddenly, "This matter has indeed caused these two children to suffer, but if it weren't for them, the emperor wouldn't be so angry. The battle between the Tang Dynasty is so cruel, and the flesh and blood of close relatives are sometimes pawns, so I often advise you, third brother, not to stare at the throne, but your three characters are too similar to the emperor, although he promised , but I don’t think so in my heart!”

  Li Yan frowned, and said: "But the third brother told me that we have the blood of the former Sui Dynasty, and it is impossible to ascend to the throne!"

"That's why he is not reconciled!" Concubine Yang suddenly looked sad, "Min'er, concubine mother has accepted her fate, and the only wish in this life is for you and Ke'er to be good. Suspicion, the emperor and the empress don't say anything, it means that this matter is in line with the emperor's wishes, they want to acquiesce to this fact, if it is not for your sister this time, I will never agree to this plan, in the future you should concentrate on you The chamber of commerce, don’t get involved in this court struggle anymore!”

  Li Yin hesitated for a while and said, "Yes, Concubine Mother!"
