Regardless of whether you are an emperor or a prince, things in the clan are actually quite easy to decide. Either kill, imprison, or endure. Apart from these three things, there are basically no big tricks.

Taking the incident of Youwu Houjun as an example, Li Chengqian didn't know why Li Ke was embarrassing Fan Xing, but he had taken advantage recently and could only choose to pretend to be confused. What would the emperor think if he reprimanded Li Ke?

Moreover, how could such a big move of reviewing the generals of the guards be hidden from the eyes of Cen Wenwen, the minister of Zhongshu? He must have understood the emperor's intentions first, so he let Li Ke go to the emperor's "favour".

In fact, Li Chengqian has never understood why the always generous emperor would be so fussy about his official position since he trusted Cen Wenwen so much. What is the difference between the work he is doing and the power he holds now and Zhongshu Ling?

?

After carrying out the emperor's imperial edict, Li Chengqian drank with these heroes for half the night, and then talked to them one by one over wine. In the end, under the ridicule of the generals, Li Chengqian was helped out by Henglian and Zhang Sizheng.

.

Did Li Chengqian drink too much? Of course not. After leaving the main hall, Li Chengqian walked away from the left and right, and walked steadily towards the East Palace with his hands behind his back. This was not that he deliberately pretended, this rule was specially taught to him by the emperor in his early years.

Yes, no matter how happy or depressed you are, you must leave some room when drinking to ensure that your mind is clear at all times.

The reason is very simple, because the emperor believes that neither civil servants nor military generals are 100% reliable. The location of Taiji Palace not only attracts the princes, but also attracts them. There are too many such painful lessons in history, and

There are so many that one can hardly count them.

After returning to the East Palace, Li Chengqian did not go to Dugu Miaoyin's place to rest because it was too late. After taking a hot bath under the care of Henglian, he returned to the study to review the transfers from Zhongshu Province and various departments in the East Palace.

of documents.

What made him most happy was the cooperation between Changsun Huan and the Wang family. The progress was rapid. From this incident, it can be seen that money can resolve all conflicts except blood feud.

Let’s just say a few days ago, the emperor issued a decree to arrange a marriage for the young King Li Zhi of Jin Dynasty. The candidate for the princess was the legitimate daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan. If you had done this in the past, you wouldn’t have even thought about it. They would be able to get it back for you in one go.

, and now, under the high pressure of imperial power and the offensive of money, a huge family like theirs has also learned to bow its head.

This is very good. Those who know current affairs are distinguished. The Wang family must have a special understanding of this sentence in their family history. Otherwise, how could they use it so skillfully? At this point, the Cui family behaved like

It's a little bit worse. What that bastard Cui Xian did was that I got rich after killing him eight times. How can I bear such a big grudge?

Just like that, after the sun rose, Henglian and Zhang Sizheng walked in carrying washing utensils and breakfast. Li Chengqian also put down his pen and washed his face and gargled.

According to the rules of palace maids, not to mention the prince Li Chengqian, even the higher-ranking female officials are being served by others. However, Li Chengqian cannot get used to such treatment and has told Henglian a long time ago not to be serious about such matters.

"Princess, why haven't you seen her?" After taking two bites of side dishes, Li Chengqian asked Henglian who was clearing the table.

"Um, back to Your Highness, the Crown Princess came to see you while you were taking a bath last night, and ordered the general to take good care of the courtyard and not allow you to come or go in any way until you wake up.

At the same time, the general also noticed that the female officials and maids of the East Palace were all out, and it looked like they had lost something!"

Hey, this is really new. I really didn’t know that Lord Ma has three eyes. He stole things on my head. Just when Li Chengqian wanted Zhang Sizheng to go and see what happened, Dugu Miaoyin shouted angrily.

walked in with his sleeves tucked in.

Li Chengqian was amused by her appearance when he saw that she was sitting down without saluting him, with her lips pouting so much that a oil bottle could hang from her lips. In his memory, Dugu Miaoyin always seemed to be elegant and generous, neither happy nor angry.

In terms of appearance, this is the first time that I have been in such a state.

"My beloved concubine, look how you are acting like the founding hero last night. Is it because I haven't sobered up yet, or you, haha..." As he spoke, Li Chengqian couldn't continue, but

He rubbed his belly and kept smiling.

Being teased by Li Chengqian, Dugu Miaoyin rolled her eyes at him, and then said angrily: "Your Highness, do you know? The Princess Belu was lost last night. Except for your study, every hall in the East Palace was lost."

We searched all over the house and the room, and finally found her under the collapse of her side hall. Look, I spent the whole night searching in fear, and my hair is almost turning white!"

Dugu Miaoyin is not yet twenty years old. No matter how much she cares, her hair will never turn white. Li Chengqian understands what she means. Princess Bolu is not an ordinary Liangdi. Her existence not only affects the two of them,

The country's diplomatic relations were also related to the fundamental interests of the Tang Dynasty in the west. If something happened to her in the East Palace, even if the emperor and the prince did not pursue it, she would have to bear the reputation of a jealous wife.

"Okay, my beloved concubine, don't be angry. Bolu is a small country of Zuer. Naturally, it can't compare with the Tang Dynasty in terms of etiquette. As the mistress of the East Palace, you should be punished and scolded, so you don't have to worry so much. Gu

I will always be on your side."

Princess Bolu was carried into the East Palace from the side door. Her canonization ceremony was also very simple. It was just that Crown Princess Dugu Miaoyin issued a golden book to her. Li Chengqian never saw her at all, let alone in

She took a rest.

However, according to what Dugu Miaoyin said, this foreign princess did not have the so-called plateau red at all. In this regard, Li Chengqian had wronged her.

"Your Highness, isn't this good? After all, she was sent by Bolüguo. If I constrain my concubine according to the palace rules, wouldn't it be obvious that she will be difficult for others?"

Brushing the phoenix hairpin on her head, Dugu Miaoyin replied sheepishly, there are already rumors in the palace that she is ostracizing the new concubines in order to dominate the exclusive palace. If she really did what Li Chengqian said, then she wouldn't be right.

What's going on?

Moreover, Empress Changsun also criticized her, both verbally and externally. The prince is the crown prince of the country and the future emperor. One of his descendants is destined to become the fourth generation emperor, so no matter from that perspective, it should not be

This matter was delayed due to personal anger.

"My beloved, you are thinking too much. Since she has chosen to be the wife of the Li family, she must abide by the rules of the Li family. If she can't stand even these rules, then Liangdi may not be able to secure her position!
