Chapter 2234 Li Shimin's Plan
Ancient Chinese people said: "Huang" means "great", which refers to its magnificent splendor and beauty. "Emperor" means that its virtues resemble heaven and earth, which means that it can follow the way of heaven, act prudently, be the father of heaven and mother of earth, and be the master of the world.
This sentence fully explains what an emperor is. "Huang" means big, and also refers to the Three Emperors.
The Emperor represents the Five Emperors, the common rulers of the world.
The emperor is the son of heaven and earth, responsible for caring for all things in heaven and earth and governing the people of the world.
Although these were all fantasies of the ancients, they represented the social status of the emperor at that time.
As an emperor, Li Shimin could definitely say that he was the common ruler of the world.
No other dynasty had achieved such success as his. All nations came to pay tribute to him. Even the Western Regions knew that there was a giant dragon in the East.
He is extremely powerful and invincible.
People from all over the world want to visit the Tang Dynasty in the East, and they all hope to be reborn into the Tang Dynasty in their next life.
Because of Li Shimin's extraordinary achievements, he would have much higher expectations for his son. He hoped that his son could surpass himself.
Let the foundation he created become even more powerful and last for thousands of generations.
"Thank you for your teachings, father. I will learn more from you in the future." After listening to his father's explanation, Li Chengqian stood up and saluted solemnly.
These are all experiences of being an emperor.
Just as Li Shen said, those great Confucian scholars only taught him how to be a minister, and only the emperor knew how to be a monarch.
"You have to learn, but you can't learn everything. Don't learn his skills of getting into trouble.
This kingdom will be passed on to you in the future."
Li Shimin added that he hoped Li Chengqian could be like Li Shen, but he was afraid that he would really be like Li Shen.
"Yes, I'll remember it." Li Chengqian agreed quickly.
"Okay, there's nothing else to do. I asked you to come here so that you can have an idea of what's going on. You don't have to be too surprised when Li Shen's memorial arrives in a few days.
You can handle this matter yourself, you should know how to deal with it. "
Li Shimin put away the letter and gave instructions to Li Chengqian.
This can also be considered as the prince of power.
"Don't worry, father. I know what to do. I'll take my leave now if you have nothing else to do." Li Chengqian stood up and saluted.
Li Shimin nodded and Li Chengqian stepped out.
If Li Shimin had not made his analysis just now, Li Chengqian would still be worried about how to protect Li Shen, but now it seems that he has nothing to worry about.
This younger brother had already found a way out for himself, so he got it without any effort.
As they were walking, Li Chengqian suddenly wondered if he should ask Li Shen for some money. If he helped to deal with it, it would be considered as a favor.
It shouldn't be too much to ask him for some labor fees.
The Eastern Palace has been tightening its belt and living a very hard life in the past few months, all because Li Chengqian wanted to repay the 30,000 strings of cash he had borrowed as soon as possible.
It’s a pity that his annual salary from the Prince’s Mansion was less than 10,000 strings of cash. Together with the income from the imperial farm under the Prince’s Mansion, it was still just a little more than 10,000 strings of cash.
Li Chengqian had to live frugally for three years to pay back the money. Sometimes he felt that he was the poorest prince in history.
Now that we have this opportunity, would you like to...
Seeing Li Chengqian leave, Li Shimin drank his tea and felt uneasy.
The thought of the millions of dollars made him feel itchy.
How can one not be tempted by such a huge sum of money?
He is the head of the family, and what belongs to his son is his, he comforted himself in his heart.
After a while, Li Shimin stood up, walked to the desk, picked up a pen and began to write a letter to Li Shen.
"Deliver the letter personally to Prince Ji and tell him that only by spending money can he avoid disaster."
After Li Shimin finished writing the envelope, he handed it to Wang De and gave him some instructions.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid Prince Ji won't give in. Prince Ji loves money so much, it won't be easy."
Wang De took the letter and reminded that if he wanted to get money from Prince Ji, he could only use coercion, and bribery would definitely not work.
After hearing Wang De's analysis, Li Shimin touched his chin. Indeed, this rebellious son was stubborn and stubborn. Since he asked for money like this, he would definitely find all kinds of excuses.
After thinking for a while, Li Shimin looked up at Wang De:
"Wang De, how long has it been since I last visited the Imperial Concubine?"
"Your Majesty, since returning from the Duanzheng month, Your Majesty has not been to the Daji Palace. Even the tea leaves were fetched by this old servant.
It has been...almost a month." Wang De thought about it and replied.
"It's been almost a month." Li Shimin sighed and stood up:
"Let's go. We are going to the Daji Palace today. My tea is almost gone."
Li Shimin gave instructions to Wang De with a smile on his face.
"Yes." Wang De accepted the order. Wang De already understood Li Shimin's idea, which was to find the nemesis of Prince Ji.
Since Your Majesty cannot control Prince Ji, then find someone who can control him.
As everyone knows, Prince Ji is most afraid of Concubine Wei.
At this time, in Daji Palace, Concubine Wei was chatting with Empress Changsun.
The two most powerful women in the harem are now old.
Concubine Wei is 52 years old this year, and Empress Zhangsun is 48 years old. Compared with those young and beautiful new girls from decent families, they are indeed not attractive.
Even though Li Shimin had deep feelings for Empress Zhangsun, she was still not able to meet his needs physically.
I don't stay overnight at their place very often every month, most of the time I come to visit during the day.
"Ah~~~" Empress Changsun let out a long sigh.
Concubine Wei asked:
"Why are you sighing, sister?"
"It's all for Sizi and the little ones." said Empress Chang Sun.
She was talking about Princess Chengyang, Sizi, and the youngest Princess Hengshan.
"Sister, are you worried about their marriage?" Concubine Wei asked.
"You don't know that Chengyang and Hengshan have already picked out candidates, but Sizi is the only one who hasn't found a suitable marriage partner."
Empress Changsun shook her head helplessly.
"You can choose from among the children of nobles. There are quite a few of them in Chang'an City," Concubine Wei suggested.
Princesses usually married nobles, which was also to consolidate the imperial power.
"I did. Last year I started to have people look for noblemen of the right age in Chang'an City, but after searching for a long time I still couldn't find a good match.
Sizi is already eighteen years old, and I am very anxious."
When Empress Changsun was mentioned, she felt a little worried because her three daughters were still unmarried.
Concubine Wei understood Empress Changsun's thoughts as a mother. Sizi was not the eldest. Among the three daughters, Princess Chengyang was almost twenty years old, which was considered old.
"Sister, don't worry. Shen'er once said that it is best for a girl to get married after she is 18. If she is too young, giving birth will be very dangerous and will hurt her body.
His princess also waited for three or four years before giving birth.
I heard that Shen'er discussed this with Doctor Sun and after observation, they concluded that the best childbearing age for women is between eighteen and thirty years old.
So it doesn’t matter if Sizi searches slowly now.”
Concubine Wei spoke to comfort her.
(I think it’s time to adjust the time.)
