Eastern Palace.

Wei Ting reported to Li Jiancheng: "Feng Li has heard news that Princess Jinyang got on the King of Qin's carriage after leaving the palace.

"But there was an argument in the middle of the way, and Princess Jinyang was driven off the carriage by the King of Qin."

After Li Jiancheng thought about it for a while, he knew that Wang Yu must have asked Li Shimin for Gao Huitong, which angered Li Shimin.

How could I give up the beauty I got?

Li Jiancheng smiled: "I'll be relieved if Wang Yu makes things difficult for him."

In the past few days, whenever he thinks about the scene where Li Shimin was so popular with the people on Zhuque Street, he feels upset and feels like he has been slapped in his chest, which makes people feel suffocated.

In Li Jiancheng's view, the grand triumphal ceremony was not to promote the great military power of the Tang Dynasty, but to Li Shimin's declaration to the world that he was the best prince of the Tang Dynasty and the most suitable person to be the crown prince.

"Bang!"

Li Jiancheng, who was uneasy, punched him and cursed: "Damn it, I will never let him succeed."

Wei Ting was startled by Li Jiancheng's sudden anger. He thought he had said something wrong and immediately knelt down and apologized: "His prince is relieved."

"You go down."

Li Jiancheng sent Wei Ting away and sat quietly in contemplation.

In the current situation, Li Shimin's achievements are above him, which is a fact and he cannot change it.

However, he would never allow the Qin Prince's Mansion to expand its power and must be suppressed.

At this moment, Li Jiancheng suddenly felt that there were too few talents in the East Palace, and he had to recruit talents and give advice for himself.

Thinking about this, Li Jiancheng got up and walked out.

That night, Li Jiancheng accompanied Li Yuan for a meal.

After the meal, he said to Li Yuan: "Aye, there are still many vacancy in the Eastern Palace. I want to ask Aye for a few people to fill the vacancy."

Li Yuan heard what he meant and asked directly: "Who do you want?"

"Wei Zheng, Feng Deyi, Yu Shinan... Xu Shimo." Li Jiancheng recited a long list of names.

Most of them were old ministers of Dou Jiande and Wang Shichong, while Xu Shimo was an official who surrendered to the Tang Dynasty with Gao Kaidao.

Li Yuan's eyes flashed, and the names that Li Jiancheng pronounced had long appeared in the memorials given to him by Li Shimin.

As early as after returning to Beijing, Li Shimin handed over a memorial to ask him for prisoners of war, but he kept suppressing him and had no instructions.

These two brothers...

"You go back first, I'll think about it."

Li Jiancheng seemed to understand something, but he didn't say much and took back to Li Yuan.

"Wei Zheng, Yu Shinan, Feng Deyi..." Li Yuan opened Li Shimin's memorial and murmured these names.

......

The second day.

Li Yuan issued an edict, conferring Li Shimin as General Tiance, and was appointed as the governor of Situ, the Minister of Shangshu of the East Shaanxi Road. He was above the princes and dukes, with his fief increased to 30,000 households, and was granted the Tiance Mansion to establish its own official subordinates.

After Li Jiancheng learned the news, he locked himself in the room and vented.

“Damn…Damn…”

Before this, Li Shimin had already ranked as the King of Qin, the Taiwei, and also served as the Shangshu Ling and the General of the Right Guard. The Taiwei was the leader of the three dukes, who was in charge of military and political affairs in the world, and was actually the leader of all officials.

Now, Li Shimin has been named General Tiance, and General Tiance is above the princes. Li Shimin ranks first among the princes, and the princes are three dukes below. Li Shimin also commands the Taiwei, Situ, and the highest commander of the Shangshu Province under the three dukes, Li Shimin also serves as the Shangshu Ling.

In other words, at this time, Li Shimin was the highest in terms of both his lord and his official position, second only to Emperor Li Yuan and Crown Prince Li Jiancheng.

After venting, Li Jiancheng walked out of the room as if nothing had happened and instructed his subordinates: "Go and prepare a big gift, I want to congratulate my brothers."

Li Jiancheng was not the only one who went to the Qin Palace to congratulate him, but almost all the royal officials in Chang'an City went there.

Wang Yu also went there, but he didn't go to see Li Shimin. Changsun was busy entertaining guests, so she took Li Chengqian and a few children to play in the garden.

Li Yuan said nothing about Li Shimin's grand banquet for guests, but instead ordered Yue Yu to take the reward to the Qin Prince's Mansion.

For a moment, Li Shimin was incredible and no one in Chang'an could surpass him.

Before the curfew that day, Li Shimin sent someone to send Gao Huitong to the Princess's Mansion in Jinyang.

Wang Yu was surprised by this. Li Shimin actually compromised?

"I have met Princess Jinyang." Gao Huitong saluted respectfully.

Wang Yu hurriedly stepped forward and helped her up: "Sister Gao, get up quickly, there is no need to be too polite between you and me."

Perhaps because of her family's death, Gao Huitong seemed very depressed and unfamiliar. She took a step back: "I can't stand the princess's sister."

Her self-proclaimed hurt Wang Yu's heart.

Wang Yu slowly pulled his hand back and sighed: "I know that your family died in this war, and you are sad because of it, but the dead are gone, and the living should live well.

"Put it aside, I really treat you as my sister.

"The chaos has passed and peace is coming. We will no longer have a question of position. We will be a family."

Gao Huitong's expression was a little loose.

"I want you to come from the King of Qin, not to want you to be my slave, but to give you freedom.

"I will support you and help you wherever you want to go and what you want to do."

Gao Huitong finally raised his head and asked in disbelief: "You...all you said are true?"

Wang Yu showed his most sincere smile as much as possible: "Of course it is true, the sky is high and the sea is wide, let it fly."

Hearing this, Gao Huitong's eyes heated up and tears surged up. She quickly raised her head and forced the tears in her eyes back.

Seeing her actions, Wang Yu couldn't help feeling sad.

The next moment, Wang Yu smiled and said, "It's getting late today. I've arranged a room. You go and rest first.

"This matter can be discussed later. You can stay in my mansion with peace of mind and think slowly."

Gao Huitong agreed gentlely.

However, early the next morning, Gao Huitong went to see Wang Yu: "Now I have no relatives and no relatives in my hometown. I really don't know where to go or what to do."

She knelt down and continued, "If the princess doesn't dislike it, I'm willing to stay and serve the princess."

Wang Yu was happy and quickly helped her up: "I am very happy that my sister is willing to stay. There is still a female official in charge of the business in the backyard. If my sister is willing, I will ask my sister to the backyard of the princess's mansion in the future."

"I am naturally willing. Thank you princess. Please don't call me this. I can't bear it." Gao Huitong said without being humble or arrogant.

Wang Yu agreed: "Okay, don't call yourself a slave in the future. This is the rule of the princess's mansion."

After saying that, Wang Yu ordered: "Jiangbao, take Lady Gao to get to know the princess's mansion and tell her about the rules of the princess's mansion."

"yes."

Yuzhai has always been lively, and immediately walked out with Gao Hui: "Madam Gao, don't be so nervous. Our princess has always been kind and kind to the servants and is very casual.

"The rules of the Princess' Mansion are not strict, nor are they loose.

"First of all, the servants do not need to be called "slave" in front of the princess, but also called "Xiao Yuer".

"The princess said that we are all a family, friends, and partners, just be as easy as possible..."

The voice became farther and farther away, and Wang Yu took his eyes back and looked at the silent spring flowers and autumn moon.

"I asked Mrs. Gao to take charge of the backyard. What do you think?"
