"Why is this? Everyone says that the son-in-law is loyal and patriotic. Could it be that he is unwilling to contribute to the country?" Changsun Wuji asked pretendingly puzzled.

Du Shaoqing snorted coldly and refused to look at him, turned his head to look at his cheap father-in-law, saluted and said: "Your Majesty, I think you can send a shrewd and capable prince to go, one can effectively govern the local area, and the other is to train talents. If we can turn the bitter cold land into a happy land, wouldn’t it be easy to change it to any place in the Tang Dynasty?”

This Li Er's eyes lit up, yes, why didn't I expect that?

Just now, he only paid attention to the rivalry between his son-in-law and uncle, and forgot to think about the countermeasures. Du Shaoqing dared to contradict these ministers so directly, because he was unwilling to bend over the so-called political rules in the court. He has always disliked obeying everyone's default This set of rules.

"Well, among the princes of the right age, who is suitable? Ke'er who is in Sichuan? Or Tai'er who is studying?" Li Er asked, there are only a few who are of the right age and can be released to govern a place. personal.

At this time, the crown prince Li Chengqian who had been standing aside suddenly stood up and begged the emperor loudly: "Father, my son is willing to go west to govern Tubo."

Chapter 3 and One

Li Chengqian's stepping up was something that no one in the Hall of Deliberations had expected. It was the duty of the heir of a country to guard the East Palace, and it was never heard of the matter of releasing the governance area.

There is a saying that a country cannot be without a king for a day. The prince has his own mission. In case of accidents to the emperor, the prince must be in charge of the country at any time. Will it suddenly come out today?

"Your Majesty, no, I object." The Minister of Rites, Wang Si, stood up and said.

Then Wei Zheng and others also spoke up to object, but among the ministers, only Guojiu Zhangsun Wuji did not speak up, and he was noncommittal about the prince's actions.

Emperor Li Er pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, Ke'er should go. He is titled the King of Shu, and he is now in the land of Shu. He is also close to Tubo. Chengqian should stay in Chang'an and help with government affairs. .

What Zhong Aiqing said is right, as a prince, you can't just focus on one place, you have to look at the whole Tang Dynasty. "

Li Chengqian said loudly: "I beg your father for your permission!

The sons and ministers are young and do not know anything, and their knowledge is shallow. They live in Chang'an and can't see the sufferings of the people from various memorials. Du Mama said a word, and it is superficial to get it on paper!

It is precisely because Erchen is a prince that he needs to personally experience the lives of the people, and Erchen does not want to be a Zhao Kuo who only talks on paper. "

As he spoke, he glanced at Du Shaoqing, as if recalling that he was studying in March in Luoxia Town.

And the other courtiers also looked at Du Shaoqing. For this sentence, many people praised it in a small way. Being able to say this sentence is also in line with Du's character, being pragmatic rather than unrealistic.

Fang Xuanling persuaded: "Prince, think twice. In the past and present, many monarchs have learned and grown up in the palace since they were young, and still governed a country. It makes sense."

Fang Xuanling's words were pointing to Li Chengqian, but he may not have understood, or he may have understood without fear, so he insisted: "But how many sage kings are like this? My father joined the army at the age of 17 and fought the world. It is through suffering and seeing everything that he can become the saint who is praised today.

Li Chengqian dare not say that he has great ambitions, but he is willing to follow the example of his father, so why not be afraid of danger! "

Li Er felt relieved that his son could say such a thing. The eldest son finally got the hang of it and lived up to his expectations. However, Li Er was also a little bit reluctant about whether he could go to Tubo, not because he was worried. No matter how good or bad the governance of Tubo is, I am worried about the safety of my son, after all, I am not familiar with the place of life.

Thinking of this, Li Er raised his eyes to look at his eldest brother-in-law, Changsun Wuji, and found that the other party's eyes were slightly closed and his brows were tightly frowned, as if he was entangled in contemplation, but he had no intention of opening his mouth. Li Er looked at Du Shaoqing again, among the crowd, He's the only one who's ever been to the Southwest.

Du Shaoqing also saw the questioning gaze of the other party, smiled slightly, and saluted Li Er respectfully: "Father-in-law, if there is nothing else, my son-in-law asks to leave."

Um?What is this for?Many ministers thought that this was a court meeting and it was all official business. How could you reminisce about the old days with His Majesty?

But Du Shaoqing went on to say: "Before I came, my daughter Xuanxuan pestered me to go to the construction site of Changle House to dig treasures in person. At that time, you were in a hurry to notify the court, so my son-in-law let the child ride a tiger alone, but such a precious daughter , I’m always worried, so I want to apologize and go back and have a look.”

"Mr. Du, you are too dissolute. Is it time for you to deal with private affairs?" The old minister stood up and said dissatisfied.

Who knew that at this time Li Er laughed and scolded: "Go, I know that you are tired and lazy, and you know how to make trouble here.

Hurry up and go back to see my granddaughter, if you scratch your skin, I won't spare you. "

My old minister seemed to have eaten a dead fly, watching His Majesty wave Du Shaoqing back, and the latter walked out of the Palace of Political Affairs, no one spoke to stop him, and no one said that he was rude. Was it opened by his Du family?

Some people who didn’t open their mouths understand it, some people don’t want to offend Du Shaoqing, and the emperor Li Erxin said that this kid seems to have a smooth side, this sentence avoids the important and ignores the minor, in fact, it implies that since the child wants to do things, even if it is dirty work. If the parents can't bear it, they should watch him do it, because the child likes it.

If Du Shaoqing expresses his support or opposition in court, he will definitely offend people, and if something happens in the future, he will not be able to escape being impeached, but he is very smart to hint like this.

After a moment of silence, Li Yixin said, Du Shaoqing made it very clear, let him go, and provide enough security guards, even if he is worried, he can go to inspect and nurse later, there is no need to stop him.

"Okay, then let Chengqian go." Li Er smiled and looked at his son Li Chengqian.

"Your Majesty" someone wants to say more.

But Li Er said forcefully: "How? Do you think I can't sit in Chang'an? Or who is worried that I won't live for three to five years?"

Well, no one spoke now, Li Er turned his head and smiled at Li Chengqian and said, "Did you see? Everyone is worried about you going, so I have a few requests.

You are given up to five years to make achievements, at least to ensure that the local people are self-sufficient and loyal to Datang. After five years, no matter how successful you are, you must come back.

In addition, when you go here, first, you must bring your bodyguards, and second, you need to select capable subordinates. I will give you the privilege to allow you to choose people yourself. There are five places for each soldier, and you can choose anyone below the fourth rank. "

Unexpectedly, his father, who has always been domineering at home, would let go of his agreement and support him so strongly. Li Chengqian was so moved. He knew that if his third younger brother Li Ke went, he would not have the qualifications to choose people at will.

The emperor gave permission, and Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and other high-ranking officials did not stop him, so the officials could only do so.

After talking about who will govern Tubo, we talked about Hou Junji's rewards. In the end, Li Er decided to change Hou Junji's Lu Guogong to Chen Guogong, continue to serve as Minister of the Ministry of War, add Guanglu Doctor as a scattered official from the second rank, and so on. It will be announced when the army returns with honor, and the double rank of Wu can be said to be extremely generous.

After retiring from the court, Li Chengqian did not return to his East Palace, but went to the Queen's Lizheng Hall to bid farewell to his mother. Unexpectedly, Li Er also went there. It seems that both father and son like to confide their inner emotions with the eldest grandson Queen.

Li Er pointed to his son and said: "If you don't know much about people or things inside and outside the court, you can ask your uncle first, and then tell Du Shaoqing to bring Changle and Xuanxuan into the palace. I miss my granddaughter."

Li Chengqian smiled and nodded in agreement, and said in his heart that my father had figured out that if I wanted to find someone to help, I would definitely go to Du Shaoqing, it seemed that he also had the same intention.

Chapter 3: Du Shaoqing Who Dare To Say Anything

To Li Chengqian's disappointment, his dear uncle, Changsun Wuji, only kindly said some words of encouragement for the matter of going to Tubo to take responsibility, without any other performance. Such a reaction made Li Chengqian feel cold.

Back then, even if I was stealing cows and messing around, my uncle would go to the court to explain his love to the court as hard as possible. Although he scolded me at the time, but the truth is the deep responsibility of love. The human feeling is to reject people thousands of miles away. This is not the case for relatives and nephews, or just for a colleague.

So on the way from the eldest grandson's house to Du Shaoqing's house, Li Chengqian frowned. He didn't figure it out along the way. Is it because of his own problem or his uncle's problem?

After thinking about it, he walked to the door of Du's house without knowing it, and handed over the BMW to the guards to settle. Li Chengqian entered the door of Du's house by himself, but was hit by Xiao Xuanxuan head-on.

"Oh! This round doesn't count, someone is blocking me." Like a little mud monkey, Xiao Xuanxuan quickly rolled over from the ground and shouted, not even caring to see who she bumped into.

Princess Changle, who followed Xiao ran over, was holding a feather duster in her hand, and she was so angry that she couldn't laugh or cry: "You girl, I urged you to come over and take a bath and change your clothes, but you're fine, why don't you use this to play cat-and-mouse with me on purpose?

Watch me catch your little ass and not spank it. "

Li Chengqian stepped forward and bent down to hold his niece, and smiled and persuaded the princess who was coming: "Why is Fifth Sister so arrogant? The child is still young, so she is reluctant to give her a finger."

The little girl turned around and said, "Ah, it's the uncle who came, hehe, the uncle is the best, he would not dare to hit me with you around, unlike Dad, he would not even dare to care if my mother chased and beat me." .”

Xuanxuan was a big kid, and she was so surprised that she threw herself into Li Chengqian's arms without looking at the dirt on her body.

"You are covered in mud, and your uncle's clothes have been soiled. Why don't you go change with me?" Li Lizhi reprimanded her daughter.

Li Chengqian pampered his niece's little head, hugged it up, and said with a smile: "Forget about fifth sister, it's okay, I'm going to go out for business soon, I can't bear little Xuanxuan, let me hug her more." Hold this little boy, I'm here to find my brother-in-law.

And the father asked me to bring a message, saying that you and your wife should take the child into the palace, because he and the queen mother miss the child. "

The princess was surprised and said: "As the prince, why do you still have to go out on business? Is there any disaster? How long will it last?"
