"Needless to say, Gaoming. Although he has been established as a prince since he was a child! However, he lives a prison-like life every day, being taught by various masters, reading this kind of book, reading that kind of book, and even has to worry about being criticized by you.
His Majesty the Tang Dynasty was not happy and was worried that the prince would be lost!
What does he look like in the East Palace, and what does he look like when he comes out? Your Majesty should know clearly!
As for those princes, they are still young and may not know much.
But Your Majesty thinks that when they grow up, they will still be as simple-minded as they are now?"
"Especially Li Ke. I remember that this son's personality is most like His Majesty's. But because of his bloodline, he should be opposed by many courtiers. He should know that even if Your Majesty wants him to ascend to that position, all the courtiers will be opposed.
Won't allow it!
But what about Qingque...?"
"Your Majesty, why do you think I have only taught Gao Ming, but as for Qing Que, Ke'er and others, even if the old man mentioned them several times in front of me, I have always avoided them?"
"Why?"
Li Shimin asked subconsciously.
"Because there is only one prince in the Tang Dynasty!"
Li Xuan let out a long breath and said: "Therefore, as long as the character of the prince of the Tang Dynasty is not lost, those princes must never have the idea of coveting the throne of the prince."
"But they are all brothers, how could they have such thoughts?"
Li Shimin said again.
"Your Majesty is drunk?"
Li Xuan sneered and glanced at the wine bottle next to Li Shimin before it was halfway down.
"Your Majesty, from the Qin and Han Dynasties to the Sui Dynasty, which emperor was not so confident in his own prince? Brothers will not kill each other because of the same throne, but what is the final result?
Moreover, your Majesty must not forget that you have set an example for them!"
"Xuanba, don't mention this matter again!"
Li Shimin's face froze, he took a sip of wine and said loudly.
"I don't have to say it, but please remember that the Tang Dynasty can only have one prince, and your Majesty is still in his prime, so you'd better not be so partial to those princes, otherwise it will cause them to have undesirable consequences.
idea?
Even if they don't have that idea, the ministers in their prince's palace will subconsciously encourage them for their own selfish desires!
Whatever will happen then, your Majesty, just don’t regret it..."
Li Xuan said.
He really felt helpless about Li Shimin's arrogant operation and Pu Xin.
When Li Tai, Li Ke and others were only a few years old now, he had already begun to show such great partiality.
In fact, if he hadn't cruelly refused before, I'm afraid even little Li Zhi, who was only five years old, would have been sent to Lijiazhuang by him now.
After listening to Li Xuan's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but fell into deep thought, and the look on his face became more and more solemn.
"Li Wei, go and see why the food hasn't been served yet?"
At this time, Li Xuan turned his head and said to Li Wei.
Li Wei bowed to Li Xuan with a grateful face and ran out.
However, after going out, Li Wei couldn't help but look stunned.
Li Chang, Li Chengqian and others were standing in a house not far away with worried faces.
"Uncle Li, serve the food quickly!"
"okay……"
In the house, Li Xuan was not sure whether Li Shimin listened to what he said while drinking.
Anyway, he has said it and he feels relieved.
If we can save a few princes from death, then we should save a few from death.
And will Li Shimin take the blame?
Li Xuan said it didn't matter.
The only change was that Li Chengqian and Li Chongyi, these little bastards, looked cautious in the next few days.
at the same time.
Something not big or small also happened in Chang'an City.
A chief clerk of the Prince of Shu's Palace was directly exiled to Bazhou by Li Shimin because of a trivial matter. At the same time, there were several other minor officials in the Prince of Shu's Palace who were also exiled one after another for making mistakes.
At the same time, some officials who understood military affairs were selected to serve as the main bookkeepers of the Shu Palace, the clerks were involved in the military affairs, and the meritorious officers were involved in the military affairs. They were all officials who had come down from the Sui Dynasty.
And the news that Li Ke wanted to go out to conquer the vassal country also spread.
Some officials in the DPRK also began to have wandering thoughts.
As for Li Chengqian, after bowing respectfully to Li Xuan, he began to concentrate on practicing calligraphy.
As for the little bastards like Li Chongyi and Cheng Chusi, as the New Year began to arrive, they started to get busy, and it would take a day or two before they could come to Lijiazhuang.
…
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Still in a familiar tone, Li Xuan slowly walked down from the second floor.
Sure enough, when he saw Bandai holding a square wooden box with a happy face, Li Chang stood quietly aside.
After seeing Li Xuan coming down, Le Tai hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I have lived up to my command and made twenty pens!"
Hearing this, Li Xuan looked happy, took the square box from Bandai's hand, placed it on the coffee table, and opened it.
Sure enough, there were twenty exquisite pens lying quietly inside.
The entire pen is copper-yellow.
Unscrewing the cap of the pen, Li Xuan could not help but feel his eyes light up as he saw the golden nib and exquisite body of the pen, and nodded slightly.
“Excellent!”
"Hey, thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty!"
Bandai handed over his hand with a face full of joy.
Li Xuan was startled, then turned around and asked: "Has the Fire Tong Gun that I want been developed?"
Bandai's expression suddenly froze.
"Okay, the New Year's Day will be in a few days. You all go to rest for a few days. Take the wives and children at home to Chang'an City to buy more good cloth and sew some new clothes!"
Li Xuan chuckled.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The orchestra quickly bowed and bowed.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Li Xuan looked startled and called to stop the orchestra.
"Let's make another twenty small glass bottles, just like this..."
After saying that, Li Xuan stood up directly, walked to the table beside him, took out a piece of paper, and started drawing with a pen.
Soon, a small bottle with an oval shape, one and a half inches long and one inch high appeared on the paper.
"These bottles are used to hold ink, so the threads on the bottle mouth must be tight. After tightening, there must be no leakage!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The band leader responded and walked out quickly.
Two days later.
Twenty identical small glass ink bottles were placed on Li Xuan's coffee table.
At the same time, there are twenty rosewood boxes, six inches long and three inches wide!
There are two grooves in the wooden box, and a piece of satin is padded in the grooves, which can just fit a pen and an ink bottle.
Moreover, there are two magnets installed on each side of the wooden box, so the lid can be closed automatically.
"Butler, go call those bastards over here!"
After playing with it for a while, Li Xuan gave instructions to Li Chang who was standing beside him.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Li Chang responded quickly and walked out quickly.
Soon, Li Chengqian and Li Baoding, who were all sweating profusely, hurried in and saluted Li Xuan.
"I've met the Master!"
"Um!"
Li Xuan glanced at a few people and nodded slowly.
"It seems that you are now used to sharpening your muscles!"
Li Chengqian, Li Baoding and others couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths slightly. If we don't get used to it, we will be defeated by you sooner or later!
"In view of your good performance in the past few years, I thought of giving you a gift as an encouragement!" Li Xuandao.
"Gift?"
Hearing this, Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and others were startled, then their expressions brightened, and they subconsciously looked at the wooden boxes on the table.
