Prince of Tang Dynasty

After the autumn hunt, Li Shimin relied more and more on Shu Wang Li Ke and Wei Wang Li Tai.Originally, there were many ministers who supported the two of them, but now that the two are reused, their power has naturally increased a lot, and the situation in the court has also changed as a result.

A few months ago, the situation in the court was that the forces of Prince Li Chengqian and Shu King Li Ke were contending, and the forces of Wei Wang Li Tai had to take the back seat.Although Li Shimin has always favored Wei Wang Li Tai, the ministers who support Wei Wang Li Tai are basically civil servants, and there are fewer military officials who support Wei Wang Li Tai.

Generals like Cheng Yaojin and the others who fought with Li Shimin were only loyal to the Tang Emperor Li Shimin.Even the prince Li Chengqian, they are not loyal, even if the prince is the heir apparent of the Tang Dynasty.Not only are they not loyal to any prince, but they will not have too much contact with any prince.

Changsun Wuji once wanted to help Prince Li Chengqian win over Cheng Yaojin and the others, but Cheng Yaojin and the others categorically rejected him.

Li Ke, king of Shu, has one of his biggest advantages, that is, the other half of the royal blood still flows in his body.Although this half of the royal lineage made many people feel that he could not take that position, many courtiers "handed down" from the previous dynasty supported him very much.Among these courtiers, there are many military officials.

In addition, Li Ke, the king of Shu, is very good in himself, and has always been favored and reused by Li Shimin, and he is also very famous and status in the court.In addition, Li Shimin deliberately let Shu Wang Li Ke compete with Prince Li Chengqian, so in terms of power, Wei Wang Li Tai is inferior to Shu King Li Ke.

Ever since Crown Prince Li Chengqian fell off a horse and injured his legs and feet, some people who originally supported him turned to King Wei Li Tai one after another.In addition, after the prince Li Chengqian was injured, he did not appear in the court for more than two months, which made his power severely suppressed by the power of the Shu king Li Ke.Even with the eldest grandson Wuji around, this trend cannot be changed.

Many ministers in the court thought that Prince Li Chengqian's legs and feet would not get better, and that Prince Li Chengqian would become a useless person.Once Prince Li Chengqian becomes a lame man, he will definitely be deposed.

The crown prince has always chosen his son, so the one who is most likely to become the new crown prince is Wei Wang Li Tai, so many ministers have switched to Wei Wang Li Tai during this period of time.

Although everyone kept secrets about Prince Li Chengqian's court affairs, Prince Li Chengqian had been the heir apparent for so many years, even if he didn't go to court, he could still be sensitive to changes in some things around him.

When he was injured and lying on the bed, ministers would visit him every once in a while, greet him, and tell him about the affairs of the court.However, after the autumn hunt ended, fewer and fewer ministers came to visit him, and he still didn't know what happened.

On this day, the eldest grandson Wuji went down to court, and went to the East Palace to visit Prince Li Chengqian as usual.Except for Li Shimin who came to visit Li Chengqian every day, Changsun Wuji came to visit Prince Li Chengqian every day.

Changsun Wuji knew that Prince Li Chengqian didn't like to hear words of sympathy, so he never said them.He treated Prince Li Chengqian as before, and reported to Prince Li Chengqian the affairs of the court.

Of course, some major events were not mentioned to Prince Li Chengqian.The reason for not saying it is because I don't want to irritate the prince Li Chengqian who is still recovering from his injuries.

"Uncle, is there anything else you haven't told me?" Prince Li Chengqian was a gentle and refined person before he was injured, but since he was injured, his temperament has changed drastically. "Is the fourth brother very proud of being in court now?"

Changsun Wuji didn't want to talk about this at first, because he was afraid of angering Prince Li Chengqian, but now that Prince Li Chengqian knew about it, he couldn't hide it anymore.

"The King of Shu and the King of Wei have been very useful in the court recently."

"Gu knows it." When Prince Li Chengqian said this, his face was dark and distorted. "Before Gu is abolished, these people can't wait to curry favor with fourth brother."

"Gao Ming." Looking at Prince Li Chengqian's distorted appearance, Changsun Wuji couldn't help feeling worried, and called him affectionately, "In a few days, the plaster cast on your legs and feet will be removed. You will be able to return to the court, and then everything will return to the way it was."

"Uncle, if I'm really crippled, do you think Father will abolish me?"

When Zhangsun Wuji heard this, he reprimanded him with a straight face: "What nonsense, how could you become a lame man? You are the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and auspicious people have their own celestial features, so it is impossible for accidents to happen. Besides, Xiao Yu My son said that with a plaster cast, the bones in your legs and feet will grow back."

"Uncle, Xiao Yu'er is not a miracle doctor. He said that my legs and feet will grow back as long as they can?" Seeing that the plaster cast will be removed in a few days, Prince Li Chengqian has become more and more anxious these days, "Xiao Yu'er Just saying that my legs and feet may be back to normal, but there is no guarantee that my legs and feet will be back to normal."

"You don't believe Xiao Yu'er's words, but you have to believe in yourself. You are the prince, and nothing will happen." Changsun Wuji reached out and patted the prince Li Chengqian on the shoulder, "Don't worry, everything depends on uncle, uncle Will always support you."

Prince Li Chengqian heard Changsun Wuji's words, stretched out his hand to hold Changsun Wuji's hand tightly, his eyes were slightly red, and his voice was choked up: "Uncle, it's fortunate to have you, fortunately to have you always supporting me, otherwise I, the prince, would have died sooner or later." It was scrapped..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Changsun Wuji: "What nonsense, you are the prince who was appointed by the emperor himself, how could you be deposed."

"Father..." Crown Prince Li Chengqian smiled sarcastically, "In the eyes of Father, there is only the fourth younger brother, so there is no son like me. If I become a useless person, Father may wish to abandon me. Let the fourth brother sit on the crown prince."

Changsun Wuji warned in a low voice: "Gao Ming, don't talk nonsense."

"Uncle, isn't it?"

"The emperor will never abandon you, so don't think about it." Changsun Wuji said gently, "Uncle knows that you have been lying in bed for more than two months, and I feel very uncomfortable, but don't worry, with uncle here, there is no People can shake your crown prince."

With the words of Changsun Wuji, Prince Li Chengqian felt a lot more at ease.

"With my uncle here, I feel relieved."

"You can relax these few days, just wait for the plaster to be removed."

"I listen to uncle."

Changsun Wuji appeased Prince Li Chengqian again, then left the East Palace, turned around and went to Tongxin Hall to meet Li Yu.

After returning from Autumn Hunting, Li Yu originally wanted to return to Zhuangzi to continue his career, but Empress Changsun and Li Shimin were worried about his health and asked him to rest in the palace for a while.

"Xiao Yu'er, tell uncle the truth, will the prince's legs and feet be back to normal?"

"Uncle, I said before that I can't guarantee it." Li Yu said with a serious face, "The plaster I made can only fix the legs and feet of the prince's brother, but there is no guarantee that the legs and feet of the prince's brother will return to normal."

"You mean the prince's legs are still possible..."

"Uncle, the prince's brother's leg is too badly injured." In modern times, the prince's brother's leg and foot could be preserved through surgery.

"Too."

"Uncle, the prince's elder brother is auspicious, and he may be able to recover his legs and feet." In history, the prince Li Chengqian was crippled, and it is not known whether the prince Li Chengqian of this world is.

Changsun Wuji reached out and touched Li Yu's little head, and said with a smile, "You're right, the prince is auspicious, and he will be fine." After finishing speaking, he looked at Li Yu's little face still A little pale, without any blood color, I couldn't help but worry, "Why is your little face still without any blood color?"

"When did my face turn red?" Li Yu touched his own face and said in a self-deprecating spirit, "If there is, it must be red from the sun."

Changsun Wuji was amused by Li Yu's words, and raised his hand to gently pinch his little nephew's slightly pale face.

"Seeing that you are in such good spirits, uncle is relieved."

"Uncle, I'm fine."

"However, it's going to be cold soon, so you have to pay attention to your body."

"Uncle, I know."

Changsun Wuji gave Li Yu a few more instructions, and then left the Tongxin Hall.

After Changsun Wuji left, Li Yu suddenly felt a little cold.Originally, he didn't feel cold, but just now when he heard Changsun Wuji say that it was getting colder, he suddenly felt a chill.

How could his fragile body be able to withstand the cold winter in Chang'an City.Thinking that the original owner spent every winter in bed, Li Yu became terrified.

No, he had to prepare some warm things in advance.

When it comes to winter, the warm clothes must be down jackets.He asked Shangyi Bureau to make two down jackets for him.There should be no shortage of good duck and goose feathers in the palace. Although duck or goose feathers are used to make down jackets, it is certainly not like modern down jackets, but it is better than nothing.

In addition to down jackets, there are also big cotton jackets.

Thinking of cotton jackets, Li Yu suddenly realized that there was no cotton in Tang Dynasty.

No cotton, and of course no padded jacket.He remembered that cotton first appeared in Xinjiang. In Datang, it should be in the Western Regions.

Cotton is harvested from July to early September, and now it is almost October, so the cotton has already been harvested in the Western Regions.He had to tell Comrade Li that he would send someone to the Western Regions to buy cotton.

Li Yu first drew a picture of cotton growing on a tree, and then drew a picture of cotton being picked from a branch.

Li Shimin was discussing political affairs with the ministers in the Hongwen Museum. Li Yu's visit was unfortunate, and it was not easy to go in and disturb Comrade Li and the others, so he had to sit on the steps outside the door and wait.

"Your Highness King Rui, what's your matter, why don't you ask your servants to convey it to you?" Feng Yong knelt beside Li Yu, and said respectfully, "I'm afraid everyone will be too busy for a while."

Li Yu sat on the steps at the entrance of the Hongwen Museum basking in the sun with his small face in his right hand. Hearing what Feng Yong said, he took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to Feng Yong, and confessed: "Eunuch Feng, what are you waiting for?" Tell Aye for me, let him send someone to the Western Regions to buy cotton."

"Cotton?" Feng Yong heard this word for the first time, and asked with a puzzled expression, "His Royal Highness, what is cotton?"

"Cotton can be used to keep out the cold. Whether I can survive this winter depends on it." Li Yu told Feng Yong in a very solemn tone, "You tell Aye, send someone to the Western Regions to buy cotton today, and it is best to buy cotton in the sky. It can be sent to Chang'an before it gets cold."

"Your words, the servants will definitely convey them truthfully."

"Eunuch Feng, let me tell you, this cotton can be used to make jackets, shoes, quilts, hats, etc." Li Yu said, "Things made of cotton are very warm, much warmer than those made of fox fur. When the cotton arrives, I will ask the Shangyi Bureau to make padded jackets for you in the future, so that you will not be cold when you stand guard at the door in winter."

Just hearing Li Yu's last words, Feng Yong's heart warmed.

Li Yu stood up and patted his buttocks, "Eunuch Feng, please tell Aye that I will go back to the Tongxin Hall and continue to bask in the sun."

"Your Highness, don't worry, this servant will definitely tell everyone about you verbatim."

Li Yu stretched again, raised his hand and waved to Feng Yong: "Then I'm leaving."

"Slow down, Your Highness."

Li Yu muttered as he walked: "It's still September, and I feel cold. When it's really cold next month, I'll have a hard time. I hope the cotton can be sent to Chang'an sooner."

Feng Yong stood where he was, and when he heard Li Yu's murmurs, his heart ached.

An hour after Li Yu left, Li Shimin and the others finally finished discussing the business, and Feng Yong hurriedly reported to Li Shimin what Li Yu said about Mian.

After listening to Feng Yong's words, Li Shimin immediately sent someone to the Western Regions to buy cotton, and emphasized that it should be sent back to Chang'an urgently within [-] miles.

The author has something to say: Li Yu: My fragile body...
