Chapter 67 Father Robbing Son
Ever since the eldest son of Wei left the Chongwen Hall of the Imperial Palace, this sacred teaching place that had been filled with laughter and fun for a month has once again returned to its former tranquility. To be precise, it should be lifeless.
Li Gang no longer had the passion for lecturing in the past. The two most promising students did not come to class, which made the old man a little sad. One thought that loaches should not hang out with young dragons. In the eyes of the old man, this was nonsense. The reason why loaches did not hang out with young dragons was because
He disliked the young dragons, so didn't he choose two with horns and take them out of the palace?
The shrewd and articulate girl also returned to the Lizheng Palace to serve the queen. Wei Wuliang left, and she seemed out of place in the classroom.
The Chongwen Hall is quiet, but the East Palace is no longer quiet.
Li Er chased Li Chengqian and asked for the grain he had collected. He said kindly that the father knew that you wanted to do something else. Life in the Tang Dynasty was indeed very hard in the past few years and there was a lack of food. But now people will not starve to death. This food
My father will solve it for you and sell it to him at half price.
His loving father's persuasion was in vain. Li Chengqian shook his head like a rattle and refused to give.
These grains were not bought with money from the treasury, but were a reward when he was made the crown prince. Li Chengqian had almost sold out the items in the imperial palace, and even if they refused to give them to him, Li Er really had no way to rob them.
After his good words and persuasion had no effect, Li Er showed his true nature and pointed at Li Chengqian and cursed loudly.
When everyone was studying together, Wei Jiu was lucky enough to see the early dynasty of the Tang Dynasty at the crack of the door. Today, His Majesty Li Er does not sit dignifiedly like in the TV series. He mostly leans on the chair and holds his head with one hand. When he is angry, he will kick over the table.
, full of gangsterism and extremely violent.
The quarrel between the father and son gave the eldest grandson a headache. When he tried to persuade Li Er, he was always complained that the child was spoiled by the queen. When he tried to persuade Cheng Qian, the child didn't say anything or refute, he just insisted.
Food is not given.
Li Er was so angry that he yelled in the East Palace that he would never give you the title of crown prince. Li Chengqian looked indifferent. You can do whatever you want, and I won't give you food. I don't believe that you are the father of the emperor.
Are you still trying to steal food from your son?
At first, Li Er just acted like a prince and collected grain because Baixin worked hard during the war. But the increasing amount of grain made him jealous. If this grain was sent to the army, the war against the Turks could be put on the agenda.
"Li Chengqian, I am asking you once today whether you want to give me the food you have piled up in the East Palace or not!"
The roar shook the Li Zheng Hall, and Li Chengqian knelt in the hall without saying a word, just shaking his head and shaking his head. Li Er was so angry that he grabbed the tea cup and was about to smash it out. At this time, Li Chengqian spoke.
"Father, how about giving your teacup to my son? It can be exchanged for a few stones of food."
Li Er felt dizzy for a while, covering his head and pointing at Li Chengqian.
"In the future, your concubine will no longer have to go to the House of Internal Affairs to receive monthly payments. Now that your wings are strong, you dare to shout with me? Next year you will know how that cunning fox Wei Jiu deceived you, and he fed you to the bottom.
What kind of stupor?"
"Back to my father, I don't know. Wei Jiu said that this year's grain harvest will be crazy, and next year I will give you a great opportunity. There is another thing, my father, Wei Jiu wants to do business with you."
When the words came out, Li Er was furious. He stood up and walked into the palace. He picked up Li Chengqian with one hand and threw him out of the palace door. Then he shouted at the guards and closed the door.
In his heart, Wei Jiu was a liar, a eloquent liar. He deceived the prince and was unwilling to deceive him. What kind of business could he do with him? Could he transform the entire palace? He kept cursing, and the eldest grandson lowered his head and smiled.
, neither persuading nor stopping, just letting Li Er lose his temper.
Qing'er, who was waiting on the side, opened her mouth, but thought about it but did not speak. She stood quietly next to Changsun. In her heart, although Wei Jiu was a deceitful disciple, he did have some ink in his belly.
Li Er has no intention of giving up, he will not give up these grains.
After dealing with the political affairs, he went to the Chu Palace again to negotiate with Li Chengqian. Today, the Chu Palace is a bare house, and its appearance has not changed much. However, there is a huge difference between this time and the last banquet.
The large vase on the floor and the exquisite hollow-carved screen had all disappeared and were sent to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and exchanged for silver under Li Chengqian's order. There was only a table and a few chairs left in the room, and nothing else.
Li Er frowned slightly and said directly without sitting down.
"I will take half of the food. In the Turkic War, you can place a few of your cronies as vanguards, exchange military honors for positions, and consolidate your position as the crown prince. The boys from the Cheng family have a good relationship with you, okay?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not stand up when being questioned, but lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
"Father, you want food. If you don't give it to me, it will be considered unfilial. But please leave some for me, let alone exchange it with money. Life is not easy for you and your mother, and there is no need to consolidate the crown prince."
My position and position. As the crown prince and crown prince, I am not the official in the court, nor will I use my status and power to force others to rely on me. What I want is the support of the people. I am going to study. Please forgive me, father.
crime."
When Li Chengqian left, he said he wanted to study, but he left the palace.
Li Er, who stayed where he was, was a little stunned. He didn't expect Li Chengqian to agree so easily without making any demands.
It was already dark when I left the Chu Palace and returned to the Li Zheng Hall. I was not in the mood to review the memorials and rested under the care of my eldest grandson. However, I always felt that something was wrong in my mind. I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, feeling a little annoyed. I couldn't help but look at the eldest grandson next to me.
Play a little tantrum.
"I'm so upset that you don't know how to ask. I just went to Cheng Qian's place."
Li Er told the story again, and the eldest grandson just smiled, gently pressed the quilt for Li Er, and whispered.
"I have to say a few words for Cheng Qian. Ever since Wei Jiu's child appeared in Chang'an, he has lifted a curtain over the heads of their peers. I don't understand court affairs, but these
They are still paying attention to the children's movements. The child of the Cui family who was forced to call Cui Mang laid out the buns very well, and his ability is constantly showing. I heard that the children around him are also not idle. Recently, they are beating and preparing to lay the buns.
Pingkangfang was a man of skill when he was down and out."
Hearing this, Li Er became interested, sat up and motioned for his eldest grandson to continue.
"The two children Ke'er and Chongyi have already made a name for themselves in Pingkangfang. I heard that they had a conflict with the legitimate son of the Cui family and ended in a small victory. Wei Jiu need not be mentioned. Only one of his peers won. He is in Chang'an.
His deeds are not low anymore. Now there is only one restaurant left in the West City that can compete with him. All the young people are showing their strength. As the prince, Cheng Qian, how can he not be anxious? This food should be the first thing he prepares.
You have taken away most of the basis for your second fame, so it is normal for him to be unhappy."
While Zhang Sun was talking, he didn't forget to bring a cushion and put it behind Li Er to make him feel more comfortable.
Regarding Changsun's words, Li Er didn't want to admit it, but when he thought about it, it was true. Before he came, Chongyi and others also had conflicts with Cui Mang, which was nothing more than a small fight.
But Chang'an changed after Wei Jiu, the fox, came. The children no longer fought and fought, but began to form alliances and rivalries over business.
