Chapter 131: each with his own mind

"Your Majesty is going to inspect Yizhou?" When the three of Shangguanyi heard the news, they were all shocked.

After Li Yin received the letter from Chang'an, he went directly to the governor's office. He already knew about the messy things in the courtroom. But it's not that easy, he said: "There's nothing to panic about, just handle government affairs as you normally would."

Shangguanyi had guessed something from Li Yin's expression, "Your Highness, this time your Majesty is here for wheat, steel and cement!"

Dou Xiande said: "It is unbelievable that seven stones of wheat can be produced on one acre of your Highness's land, and the quality of those solid iron tools is even higher than the weapons of the Fubing. This will inevitably arouse the envy of others."

"Dou Sima is right. These people will definitely encourage His Majesty to let His Highness hand over these skills. Your Highness should have made preparations earlier." Wang Yinlong echoed.

Li Yin thought for a while, and said: "It's natural, I will deal with my father at that time, and this matter can't be cheap for those who have ulterior motives."

After Li Shimin decided to tour Yizhou in the south, Li Ke sent a letter to Li Yin, asking him to prepare early. In the letter, he pointed out the people who were against him in the court. Li Yin read it again, and Li Tai was not surprised. On the above, and this time Li Chengqian actually shot Li Yin again after pretending to be a bad guy for several months. In addition to these two people, there is another important person who finally tore the sheepskin, that is Changsun Wuji.

After reading the letter, Li Yin sneered again and again, and they couldn't help it when he made a little noise. Today's Li Yin is no longer the original Li Yin. Since they want to play, he will accompany them to the end , to see who can have the last laugh.

Chang'an, Qujiang Pond, Li Chengqian walked along the side of Qujiang Pond with Ashinalan in his arms. It is now the middle of May, and it is the season for all things to grow. The side of Qujiang Pond is full of spring, and the willow trees surrounding the pool are covered with Layers of fresh green, countless willow branches hang down, and the breeze blows, the branches and leaves flutter, just like a girl caressing her blue silk.

In the pool, gorgeous painted boats go back and forth, and beautiful songs come from it from time to time. On the shore, literati gather, reciting poems and composing Fu, so windy.

Ashnalan looked at the beautiful scenery of the pool, and praised: "Your Highness, this place is really beautiful..."

"No matter how beautiful it is, how can it be worth one ten-thousandth of Alan's." Li Chengqian looked at Ashinaland and said.

"Your Highness!" Ashinalan also looked at Li Chengqian affectionately, and the two looked like a couple of gods and gods.

Li Chengqian was happy in his heart. Two months after Ashinalan entered the East Palace, Ashinalan finally accepted him. Li Chengqian was so happy that he almost obeyed Ashinalan's words. she.

"Alan, before you asked me to join forces with Li Ke to deal with Li Tai, why did you ask me to say something unfavorable to Li Yin in front of the emperor this time? Although Li Yin has created a few novel things, it doesn't have to be like this. Moreover, he is in a wasteland like Yizhou, so there is no threat to us, when I ascend the throne as emperor, I only need to charge him with treason, and he can be dealt with." Li Chengqian suddenly Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and said.

Ashinalan has her own ideas. After she committed herself to Li Chengqian, her status has greatly increased. After entering the palace and inquiring about her life experience in detail, Ashinalan had to fabricate the identity of a Hu merchant's daughter.

Ashinalan's background is unknown, so Li Shimin would naturally not agree to let Li Chengqian marry her as his concubine, but Ashinalan made Li Chengqian look like a different person. These are what Li Shimin would like to see, so he acquiesced in allowing the two to be together.

And in this way, Ashinalan is dedicated to assisting Li Chengqian to make his crown prince stable. Her idea is very simple, but also very vicious. With Li Chengqian's love for her, after Li Chengqian ascended the throne, the queen's position is still hers. At that time, Shimin was already dead, so who else could control Li Chengqian? She and Li Chengqian had no say in the Great Tang Dynasty, and then she let the Great Tang decay day by day, waiting for her father Khan Jieli to make a comeback .

Originally, all the plans were going on as usual. Ashinalan saw that Li Tai was the biggest threat to Li Chengqian, so she asked Li Chengqian to pretend to please Li Ke and join forces with Li Ke to deal with Li Tai. However, the news from Yizhou made her temporarily change her mind. strategy.

After being able to come and go freely, Ashinalan quickly got in touch with Jieli in secret, and kept passing the information she got from Li Chengqian back to Jieli, and this time the movement in Yizhou also attracted her attention. What he cares about is not wheat or cement, because the grassland does not need this, what she needs is steelmaking skills, with this, Xieli's plan to conquer the grassland will go more smoothly, so he asked Li Chengqian to play Li Shimin, and let Li Yin take this The skills were handed over to the imperial court, and she got them from Li Chengqian.

"Of course I'm doing it for His Highness's benefit. Li Yin's possession of so many skills will only make Yizhou more and more prosperous. Now that His Majesty is in good health, His Highness still doesn't know how to become the throne. At that time, Yizhou will be at the end of the road." Ash Shi Na Lanjiao said.

Li Chengqian frowned and said, "Just asking for those skills won't help. Yizhou can do whatever it wants." Li Chengqian was not stupid, and found a flaw in Ashinalan's words.

"But it is better than Li Yin, and we are not much better." Ashinalan added, and when she said this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but nodded.

In the Cui Mansion, Cui Shao threw a celadon teacup on the ground heavily, his chest heaving violently. These days he tried his best to defend Li Yin, but the other six noble families sang against him, and they only wanted Li Shimin to urge Li Yin to make friends with him. The skills in his hands completely disregarded the friendship between the five surnames and Qiwang, "The other three surnames are nothing, why is your Lu family the same."

Mrs. Lu sighed, waved her maid back, and said, "From my father's point of view, what he did was not wrong. Li Yin is the son-in-law of the Cui family, but not the son-in-law of the other four surnames. Li Yin belongs to the royal family of the Li family. It is a prominent family, and the emperor has been suppressing the five surnames and seven Wangs. Isn't our daughter marrying Li Yin as a proof? Now that Li Yin has mastered such skills, this is of course a good thing for the Li royal family, but it is different for other prominent families. That's why even the scheming eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help jumping out, and it wasn't for the benefit of the Guanlong nobles to prevent the Li family from dominating the family."

Cui Shao sat down dejectedly, "But Mrs. Cui has only one way to go. After all, Yingying is our daughter!"

Mrs. Lu walked up to Cui Shao and said, "A few days ago, I met Yuan Tiangang, the volcanic commander, and told him Yingying's birthday. He said that Yingying would be extremely rich and honored in the future. No nonsense, I believe what he says."

Cui Shao has never believed in these strange things, but he also felt a little comforted when he heard it, "I hope so."

At this time, Li Shimin in the Taiji Palace was also quite troubled. He would set off in a few days, and he hadn't figured out how to deal with it. When he came to court today, he didn't go to the Yanxi Palace, but to Ziyun Pavilion.

"Why is Your Majesty worried?" Concubine Yang was a little surprised to see Li Shimin coming, so she asked the maid to pour a cup of tea. She sat down beside Li Shimin and asked.

From court to **, that is to say, only Concubine Yang has no huge family behind her. Li Shimin felt a little more relaxed here, and he said: "Have you heard about Min'er?"

"Ke'er told me!" Concubine Yang didn't intend to hide anything.

Li Shimin picked up his teacup and said, "What do you think?"

Concubine Yang smiled lightly and said: "The concubine is just a woman, how can she know anything about court affairs?"

Li Shimin took a sip, and put down his teacup, "Hey, you can share your opinion on this matter. Even Empress Changsun will not mention this matter to her now. Only you and I can rest assured."

Concubine Yang was stunned, seeing that Li Shimin was indeed in a dilemma, and said: "Now the nobles of Guanlong and Qiwang of the five surnames are all standing together, if you want to pay, you have to pay, or if you don't, you have to pay, but if the royal family is like this Submitting will make them even more unscrupulous in the future."

"I think the same way. I have to worry about the life of the nobles in everything. I really have had enough, but there is nothing I can do. The Tang Dynasty has to rely on them." Li Shimin frowned.

There was a strange look in Concubine Yang's eyes. The courtiers repeatedly persecuted Li Yin. How could she not be distressed as a mother. She thought about it and said, "Your Majesty, my concubine has a plan."

"What strategy?"

"Since Min'er has to hand it over, why not take this opportunity to hand over all the land of Shu to Min'er. The southern gentry is weak, so it means that the Li royal family has all the land in their own hands. In the future, the land will surely become an inexhaustible granary for the Li family." Concubine Yang said.

Li Shimin was shocked when he heard the words, which means that Li Yin has become the real king of Shu. With Li Yin's ability today, he believes that Li Yin can turn the land of Shu into an inexhaustible granary for the Tang Dynasty. The idea of ​​going to Shu coincided with each other.

Nodding his head, Li Shimin said: "You are right. With the merits of Min'er's contribution to these skills, it is enough to silence the officials and get what they want. They will not continue to embarrass Miner."

"The concubine thinks the same way." Li Shimin agreed with her idea, and she couldn't help being a little happy.

After staying in Ziyun Pavilion for a while, Li Shimin got up and went back to Ganlu Palace. Concubine Yang sighed softly as she watched Li Shimin's gone back. It's useless, all she can do is to make the two sons less difficult on the way forward. Of course, she also has selfishness in the idea just now, in order to let Li Yin have more self-protection power in the future.

And the reason why Li Shimin agreed with her idea was because the gentry had never united against him like today, which made him suddenly feel a crisis, and at the same time, it also gave him the idea of ​​many emperors. It is better to give power to outsiders than to your own sons. In the past, under the pressure of the gentry, although his sons were crowned kings, they were all just remote positions. It was just a symbol, because the northern states were actually under the gentry Under the rule of Yizhou, Yizhou is different. Without the interests of big nobles participating in it, it is a good move in the game.
