"Queen, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has said that without His Majesty's will, these cold-resistant materials cannot be sent to the front line."
"Are we just sitting in Chang'an City and watching His Majesty and tens of thousands of soldiers freeze to death on the front line?"
The afternoon meeting was held all afternoon. Li Tai did not agree to transport supplies to the front line on the excuse that the emperor did not have an order and he did not dare to make the decision at will.
Queen Changsun had no choice.
Although she is a queen, she can't get involved in the affairs of the court.
Otherwise, you will have to be reprimanded by the official.
At this moment, Wei Zheng pursued him to the Lizheng Hall and begged Empress Changsun again.
Empress Changsun was also extremely embarrassed.
Of course she was worried about the safety of the emperor and the frontline soldiers, but this matter was now under the control of the prince Li Tai.
What can she do?
As a queen, do you want Li Tai to stay out of this matter?
"Mr. Wei, I and Qingque have just discussed this matter, and Qingque insists on his own ideas."
"He said he was worried that without His Majesty's will, he would not dare to send these supplies easily."
"They said that if they were intercepted on the way, the army on the front line would definitely collapse." Empress Changsun said softly.
At this moment, she also blamed Li Tai a little, secretly saying that he, the prince, was not responsible at all.
As a prince, he always adheres to the idea that if he doesn't do something, he will not make mistakes. How can he have the opportunity to grow?
If this were known to the emperor, he would probably be very angry.
"Empress!" Wei Zheng's voice suddenly increased.
"I don't want to speak ill of the prince in front of the queen, but what the prince did today really seems to be rebellious."
"Knowing that winter is about to enter on the front line, His Majesty and tens of thousands of soldiers are all wearing summer clothes."
"As the prince, he does not want to solve the problem immediately, but instead shirks the responsibility. The queen, the queen, and the ministers have to wonder whether the prince wants to do something evil to your majesty..."
"Wei Zheng, don't talk nonsense!" Queen Changsun stood up with an extremely ugly look on her face.
The attendants in the Li Zheng Palace were all shocked.
They had followed Empress Changsun for many years, but they had never seen her like this.
Everyone lowered their heads and even breathed cautiously.
Wei Zheng was scolded by Empress Changsun, even though he knew he should not say these words to Empress Changsun.
But thinking of the safety of the soldiers on the front line, Wei Zheng did not lower his head, but looked directly at Empress Changsun.
"The Queen feels that what I said is wrong, so please ask the Queen to speak to His Highness the Prince and ask His Highness to send cold-proof materials to the front line."
"In the future, your Majesty or the Empress will decide how to deal with the ministers, and the ministers will definitely not have any complaints." Wei Zheng and Empress Changsun handed over their hands, and then left the Li Zheng Hall.
Queen Changsun sat at the top, watching Wei Zheng's leaving figure, and said nothing for a long time.
…
"Your Majesty, the time is almost up. Your Majesty finds that there is no movement in Chang'an, so he will definitely send Zhao Chen back to check."
"It's time to pack up the supplies and set off. As for Zhao Chen..."
In the East Palace, Kong Yingda and Li Tai whispered.
In today's court meeting, although Li Tai's excuse was fine, as the prince, being so irresponsible was not a good thing for Li Tai himself.
If there is really no movement at all, it will be easily questioned by officials.
And they were only targeting Zhao Chen this time.
The emperor and the frontline soldiers still dare not really ignore it.
"That's right. Someone just came to report that the old and immortal Wei Zheng went to the Queen Mother's palace again. He probably wanted the Queen Mother to persuade me."
"The old guy is really confused now. Can the harem interfere with my decision?" A sneer appeared on Li Tai's face.
He waved his hands to Kong Yingda and said: "I will go to the Li Zheng Palace right away. You go and deliver the news to me and all the officials. Just say that I have thought about it and deeply feel that it is not easy for the soldiers on the front line."
"Even if I disobey my father's order, I must send this cold-proof thing to the front line."
"Okay." Kong Yingda nodded with a happy face.
Kong Yingda discovered that after several setbacks, Li Tai became too thoughtful.
First, he said in public that he had reasons why he couldn't do anything, which made all the officials feel very disappointed.
Then he turned around and said that he would send things to keep out the cold regardless of himself.
This will undoubtedly make the officials who were disappointed just now feel happy.
His impression of Li Tai will also change.
As for Li Tai saying that he was going to the Li Zheng Palace to meet Empress Changsun, Kong Yingda didn't need to think too much to know that he was going to play the role of a dutiful son.
The only pity is that Kong Yingda doesn't know how Li Tai plans to deal with Zhao Chen when he returns.
…
Empress Changsun was a little tired today, and the lack of things to keep out the cold on the front line made her very worried.
Coupled with the anger shown by Wei Zheng just now, Empress Changsun felt even more troubled.
Just as he was about to go to the back hall to pray, he heard an attendant say that Prince Li Tai was coming.
Empress Changsun was very dissatisfied with Li Tai's performance today.
I didn't want to see him at first, but thinking that he was my son after all, I still asked someone to bring Li Tai in.
"My son, please pay homage to your mother." Li Tai knelt on the ground and shouted to Queen Changsun.
Such a gesture actually made Empress Changsun feel a little surprised.
"What's wrong with Qingque? Kneel on the ground and get up quickly." Empress Changsun asked Li Tai to get up.
But no one helped Li Tai.
Li Tai knew in his heart that Queen Changsun was angry with him.
"Mother, I am guilty." Li Tai was still kneeling on the ground.
"Today at the court meeting, the queen mother advised my son to send people to send things to keep out the cold to the front lines, but my son refused because he did not have the will of his father."
"I apologize to my mother for making my mother sad." After Li Tai said this, he kowtowed heavily to Queen Changsun.
Empress Changsun looked a little better.
"As the crown prince, it is right for you to follow His Majesty's orders. My mother does not mean to blame you." Empress Changsun sighed.
"The mother does not blame the son, but the son feels unhappy. My father and tens of thousands of soldiers are confronting the enemy at the border, but the prince, the son, cannot help. He is really incompetent."
"After I returned to the palace, I thought about it for a long time. Now the border is about to enter winter, and my father and tens of thousands of soldiers only have winter clothes."
"No matter why my father has not sent an order until now, tomorrow morning, I will let the team transporting things to keep out the cold set off."
"If my father is to blame in the future, I am willing to shoulder the responsibility alone."
"I came here today to ask my mother to forgive my stubbornness at the court meeting today." Li Tai said and kowtowed to Empress Changsun again.
Even if Li Tai apologized to himself like this, how could Empress Changsun still sit still?
He walked down and helped Li Tai up, and said with a loving look on his face: "You don't have to be like this Qingque, your dear mother knows that she misunderstood you."
"If your father is dissatisfied, my mother will explain it to you in the future."
"Your father will not blame you."
"Go back and rest early. You are quite tired these days."
Empress Changsun held Li Tai's hand with a look of relief on her face.
"I will leave first, and my mother will rest early. I will come back in two days to say hello to my mother." Li Tai said to Empress Changsun.
Empress Changsun nodded and watched Li Tai walk out of the Li Zheng Hall with a smile on her face.
But he didn't see the pride hidden in the darkness on Li Tai's face.?
