The Tang Dynasty: The Concubine of the Holy Soldier

Chapter 242 Don't Come Empty
Chapter 242 Don't Come Empty
After all the attendants had retreated, Li Er pretended to be majestic and said: "Cheng Yaojin, you are so courageous, how dare you collude with Bai Jingyi to let go of those monks who are bewitching people!"

Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "Hey! The old minister is guilty!"

"However, General Bai's note is really clever. He deliberately used Pei Ji to let these monks go, but these monks even bit Pei Ji back. It's really wonderful!"

"My old Cheng almost couldn't laugh out loud when he watched the old thief Pei Ji shouting for grievances in the court hall!"

"Hahaha! Hahaha!" Originally, Li Er pretended to be angry on purpose, but when he met Cheng Yaojin, he always broke his skills in an instant.There's no way Cheng Yaojin's infectious power is too strong.

However, with a smile, Li Er suddenly sighed and said: "Pei Ji is definitely a rare talent! Nai He can't be used by me! Otherwise"

Cheng Yaojin was very speechless, and often said: "Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger. This is not false at all. I was still laughing a moment ago, as if there is a big happy event."

"As a result, he suddenly became sentimental at this time, making it impossible to guess what the Holy Majesty was thinking."

Cheng Yaojin has been an official for many years and has already practiced the ability to adapt to the situation, so he quickly put on a sad face and said: "Now our Tang Dynasty has just ended the war, and the people need time to recuperate!"

"Although there are no people with lofty ideals in the world, and there are very few students from poor families, but the old minister believes that one day, my Tang Dynasty will definitely prosper in literature and overcome this situation of incompleteness!"

"Hey~ I don't want to, my Great Tang is full of available talents! It's a pity that these aristocratic families are the real stumbling blocks!"

"Removing Pei Ji is only a solution to internal worries. Those aristocratic families are the real enemies of the Tang Dynasty! If the aristocratic families are not eliminated, it will be difficult for the Tang Dynasty to create a truly peaceful and prosperous world!"

Listening to Li Er's words, Cheng Yaojin's mind was active. Could it be that the Holy Majesty wanted to say that the matter about the position of prime minister would not work! ?

Immediately, Cheng Yaojin cupped his hands slightly to Li Er and said, "My Majesty, I think that our Tang Dynasty has just established a country, and our national strength is weaker, and we have experienced the baptism of several wars!"

"Compared with those powerful families with profound background, my Tang Dynasty is slightly weaker! Therefore, we still need to hide our strengths and bide our time, and make long-term plans!"

"Moreover, the aristocratic family has experienced hundreds of years of inheritance, and it cannot be eliminated in a short while! The future Tang Dynasty may depend on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince being able to eliminate the aristocratic family!"

When Li Er thought of the prince, he immediately thought of what Bai Jingyi said to him on the way back.

I am really like the Supreme Emperor, am I not a good father! ?But for the future of my Tang Dynasty, I have to severely punish the prince!
Immediately, Li Er shook his head and said, "How should I reward you for Zhijie's achievements this time!?"

Cheng Yaojin quacked and said with a strange smile: "My old Cheng hasn't sobered up to now, and I don't know anything about all this. It's all thanks to General Bai alone!"

Li Er said with a faint smile: "Haha! You old man is really cunning, I will reward you with ten cattle!"

"Save me, you old bastard, always tell me that your farm cattle will kill themselves if they don't move!"

Cheng Yaojin smiled, and then bowed to Li Er and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"

Afterwards, Cheng Yaojin left the palace with a smile all over his face, and at the same time, he was thinking about how much beef to send to Bai Jingyi, so that he could have a meal in the Bai Mansion by the way!
At the same time, Li Chengqian was pacing back and forth in the Prince's Mansion, Bai Jingyi's words were always echoing in his mind.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, but there was nothing he could do. After all, his power as a prince was not as great as that of King Wei. Although he was the most expensive, he was only in name only!

Du He watched Li Chengqian pacing back and forth, and hurriedly bowed to Li Chengqian and said, "His Royal Highness, this subordinate thinks that His Royal Highness should come to visit in person!"

"What!? Ask Gu to visit him personally with gifts!"

However, Li Chengqian turned around suddenly and said: "Send someone to prepare a gift, and I must visit Bai Jingyi in person!"

Du He was immediately stunned. He didn't understand why His Royal Highness didn't want to visit Bai Jingyi at first, but now he suddenly changed his mind.

Before Du He could figure out the cause and effect, Li Chengqian suddenly asked, "What reason do you think Gu should use to visit Bai Jingyi!?"

Du He thought for a moment, then cupped his hands to Li Chengqian and said, "I would like to report to His Highness the Crown Prince, this subordinate thinks that His Highness the Crown Prince can bring a congratulatory gift and congratulate Bai Jingyi on being crowned king at a young age!"

"In this way, the name is justified and the relationship with Bai Jingyi can be drawn in!"

Li Chengqian thought about it carefully, but in his mind he was thinking: "This Bai Jingyi never respected his father, how could he put Gu in his eyes!?"

"Moreover, no matter how much this Bai Jingyi disobeyed and disrespected his father, his father never punished Bai Jingyi, and even reused Bai Jingyi!"

"Perhaps it's because the father is so measured that he can truly let Bai Jingyi be used by the Tang Dynasty!"

At this time, Du He had already prepared the congratulatory gift, and respectfully sent it to Li Chengqian's side to report: "His Royal Highness, the congratulatory gift has been prepared!"

Looking at such an expensive congratulatory gift, Li Chengqian suddenly felt a little bit pained. After all, the Prince's Mansion has long been unable to make ends meet, and he still has to win over other ministers, so the front and rear arrangements are naturally indispensable.

Immediately, Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "Let's go! Come and visit Bai Jingyi with Gu!" After the words fell, Li Chengqian got into the carriage directly.

While walking on the road, Li Chengqian was imagining in his heart: "If Gu can win over Beiliang King Bai Jingyi, then it must be a great help in the future!"

"Furthermore, the position of prime minister is vacant, and a new prime minister needs to be recommended by hundreds of officials. If Bai Jingyi speaks out to help, he will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort!"

"At that time, let Bai Jingyi directly recommend Uncle Changsun to be the prime minister! Gu will be able to have a first-rank civil and military official! Since my uncle ascended to the position of the top of the hundred officials, who else in the court can compete with Gu for the crown prince? position!"

Behind Li Chengqian's carriage, Wei Wang Li Tai's carriage also came out slowly.

"His Royal Highness King Wei! You can see the frame of His Highness the Prince!"

Wei Wang Li Tai hurriedly opened the curtain of the carriage, looked at the carriage in the distance, and then said calmly, "Pass down the order of the king! I will visit Bai Jingyi another day!"

"Why is His Royal Highness King Wei!? If you don't go at this time, wouldn't His Highness the Crown Prince seize the opportunity!?"

Wei Wang Li Tai said very proudly: "This Beiliang king never even respects his father, how can he put his brother in his eyes!?"

"At this time, if this king appears together with the emperor's brother, it will be counterproductive!"

As he spoke, Li Tai directed the carriage team to evacuate directly from here without staying too long!
