Chapter 31 The prince is crazy

(Thanks for the recommendation and support, is it still far from collecting 500? Hehehe!)

Li Chengqian was a good brother who listened to his elder brother. As soon as he returned to the East Palace, he immediately memorized the things his elder brother asked him to memorize. Then he immediately found the master craftsman who was the chief supervisor and followed him to the chief supervisor. He stayed in the evening until the night before he hurried back from the chief supervisor, and did not even have water or rice in during this period.

All of this was told by some bad guys in the East Palace that Li Chengqian's East Palace master Kong Yingda was a slight eye. The purpose was to see Kong Yingda scold Li Chengqian, so that Li Chengqian would become the target of public criticism and lose Li Shimin's favor.

In fact, Kong Yingda thought so too. Kong Yingda was also very angry about Li Chengqian's low-spirited place like the one who was going to be a prisoner. He thought that Li Chengqian must have lost his ambition.

So he made an act that made the bad guys happier, that is, to prepare to directly participate in Li Chengqian's book during the morning court the next day, and asked Li Chengqian to apologize in public in front of the civil and military ministers.

He wanted to kill Li Chengqian's majesty and smash Li Chengqian's self-esteem, with the purpose of making Li Chengqian listen to all of him in the future, because he learned the way of a saint. As long as he listened to himself, Li Chengqian would definitely become a good emperor.

I was speechless all night, and it was soon time to go to the morning court the next day

The morning dynasty of the Tang Dynasty was due to the unified war and the creation of the national system. In the early Tang Dynasty, it was held daily. Later, with the stability of the current situation, Fang Xuanling submitted a request for three days in 639. In 649, Changsun Wuji and others requested to "see the court and sit on the sun". It was only changed to "five days" in 651.

It is now the ninth year of Zhenguan, which is 635, so Li Shimin has to attend court every day.

The current morning dynasty is also called Changchao, and Changchao in the Tang Dynasty also had strict etiquette systems.

Since the Tang government did not allocate residences for Beijing officials. Officials' residences were built or rented by themselves, the distance between the official's residences was not too far from the Tai Chi Palace or the Daming Palace.

There was no record of the exact time of the early dynasty in the Tang Dynasty, but all officials needed to arrive at the Tai Chi Hall or Xuanzheng Hall in advance.

Since the palace gate will not open until the end of the night (after 5 a.m.), in order to facilitate the rest of the officials ("waiting for leaks"), the emperor specially built the "Waiting for leaks".

According to the Tang system, being late or not in the morning court will be punished.

Therefore, officials in the morning court had to get up at the fourth update. There were officials who participated in the morning court's poem "Morning Court" and they were all in the morning court. After the night was over, the palace gate opened at the second half. Under the leadership of the Imperial Officer, the ministers entered the palace gate, passed the "gate" of the prison guarding the palace gate, and then passed the "Jingdian Seven Turns" Longwei Ramp, and followed the prescribed shift sequence.

Many people will definitely ask, the morning dynasty of the Tang Dynasty was standing and sitting.

The regular attendant official needs to get up at least five o'clock (3-5 o'clock) and stand for at least two and a half hours from 4 o'clock in the morning to the morning court ceremony (6:30 o'clock). The regular attendant officials are middle and senior cadres of the fifth rank and above, and are generally relatively high in age. In the following "All officials' memorials" session, the palace arranged seats.

When officials of the Tang Dynasty presented the matter to the emperor, they did not need to kneel down or stand, and could "sit and discuss the truth."

However, there were no chairs in the Tang Dynasty, so this is a kneeling seat. Japan learned how to learn how to kneel down. If you kneel down, your feet will make you doubt your life.

In the morning of this morning, Li Shimin first discussed some people's livelihood and then discussed the attack on Tuyuhun. However, due to differences, civil officials and military generals had a big fight. Military generals scolded civil officials for fear of death, and civil officials scolded military officials for being brainless.

Both sides are old acquaintances, so they used the most ugly words to curse each other. Fortunately, they did not fight, but the order in the court was still chaotic, which really made Li Shimin angry. What made Li Shimin the most angry was that just when the matter of Tuyuhun's horse was not yet resolved, a new problem emerged, that is, the lack of salt.

Some officials reported that the production of salt is now reduced and the supply of military salt cannot be guaranteed.

Hey, it’s really like it rains all night long. You should know that it’s not okay without salt. Salt is the source of human body’s strength. What else can you fight without salt?

Li Shimin repeatedly asked the other party whether he could increase salt production, but unfortunately the other party disagreed. Li Shimin was really angry. Although he wanted to kill someone, you have to know that even if Li Shimin was the emperor, sometimes he could not do anything about it. Because he controlled salt production, he was a family called the Cui family in Qinghe.

Li Shimin also wants to give in to this family.

In this way, Li Shimin was full of fire and was about to retreat. However, at this moment, the old man Kong Yingda was about to give a fatal blow to our Crown Prince Li Chengqian.

"Your Majesty has this memorial."

"Oh! Kong Aiqing, what else do you have? Please come quickly." Li Shimin, who wanted to go to court, stopped unhappily.

Kong Yingda suddenly stood up from his seat, stood up, bowed respectfully to Li Shimin, "I want to participate in the plays of the prince and lose his ambitions. There is a statue of Qin II. Yesterday, our master from the East Palace waited in the East Palace for a day but saw the prince. In the evening, the prince hurried back and followed him to the general to serve as a prisoner. As soon as he stayed, it was midnight.

If the prince could put the spirit of staying in prison and being a prisoner on the study, how could I worry about me and others? However, the prince did his own way, did not respect his teachers and elders, and even disobeyed and deceived his teachers. Your Majesty, I ask Your Majesty to issue an order to let the prince write a letter of guilt."

"You!" Kong Yingda's words made Li Shimin crazy. He pointed his fingers at Li Chengqian and said, "You rebellious son, do you still want to be the prince?"

This scolding was really annoying. If you can question whether you want to be the prince or not, it means that Li Shimin is really angry.

Several people in the court showed a slight joy, but at this time, Changsun Wuji immediately stood up from his seat and said, "Your Majesty is the crown prince of a country, what must be a misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstanding!" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and asked, "Did you not attend class yesterday?"

Li Chengqian immediately stood up and said, "Yes!"

"Then are you staying in surveillance until midnight?"

Li Chengqian replied calmly, "Yes!"

"Auxiliary machine, is there any misunderstanding?" Li Shimin shouted.

Changsun Wuji frowned. At this moment, Li Tai tried hard to get up from his position, showing a regret and pain expression, "Brother Prince, why are you? Yesterday, my father just corrected you slightly because Ma Zheng's policy theory was not done well.

You can’t be angry and not go to class, and you can’t be distracted from playing things. The father’s finger is for our own good, and we must cherish it.”

Li Tai's words seem to be regretful, but in fact every word is heartbreaking.

"Ah, it turns out that you are against me. I scolded you, so you are not convinced. You just want to use these to disgust me. I am really my good prince.

Now you dare to disgust me like this. If you become the emperor in the future, will I kneel down to you? Otherwise, you will make me look good?"

"Have your majesty calm down!"

Li Shimin's furiousness made all civil and military officials stand up and bow to Li Shimin.

Changsun Wuji repeatedly winked at Li Chengqian, wanting to make Li Chengqian kneel down to admit his mistake, but what made Changsun Wuji a little stunned was that if such a scene had scared Li Chengqian to faint.

But today, Li Shimin, who had reached the brink of rage, made Li Chengqian not feel nervous at all, but instead smiled faintly.

Looking at Li Chengqian who showed a faint smile, the civil and military officials present all said in their hearts: The prince is crazy!
