Chapter 17 Could it be that Li Er set me up?
The Royal Poetry Society, the final word.

It is true to sincerely invite literati from all over the world!

It is true that Li Shimin tested Li Xian's talent!
Looking at the confident Li Xian on the seat, Li Shimin was eager to know whether this person with such a prophetic power could still bring him surprises.

Take a sip of herbal tea, and the coolness of ice silk will pass through the mouthpiece, refreshing.

It seems that the previous suspicions were also chatted happily, and they were left behind, and the whole person felt refreshed unconsciously.

Putting down the teacup, Li Shimin began to imagine.

"In the south of Chang'an, there is a pan of water with nine curves, surrounded by mountains and fog. The mountains are as beautiful as daisy, and the water is as blue as blue. It is a resort for summer gatherings. It happens that my Cuiwei Palace is here."

"As for the reward for winning the championship, I will decide with the Ministry of Rites."

"The guards are comprehensive, how about Li Aiqing being in charge of ensuring safety?"

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin turned his head, only to see Li Jing lowered his head and concentrating, his face gloomy, his mind wandering away.

Li Shimin had seen Li Jing's outrageous behavior in his life, so he couldn't help but frowned.

"Li Aiqing?"

Hong Funu reacted first, seeing Li Jing in a daze, hurriedly bumped Li Jing with her elbow, and whispered.

"Husband, Your Majesty will ask you something again."

Li Jing was thinking about how to euphemistically report Li Xian's idleness and lack of talent, so there was no need to think about the poetry meeting.

Seeing Hong Fu Nu this time, she panicked and raised her head in astonishment.

"Ah? Majesty... Your Majesty."

Li Shimin smiled when he saw this situation.

"Li Aiqing, don't lose your mind. You have gone through the bloody battles of the Southern and Northern Wars. Even if there are too many people, there will be no trouble."

"The layout of the guards is assigned by Li Aiqing, how about it?"

How could Li Jing dare to refute, despite the cold sweat on his forehead, he cupped his hands in response.

"Follow the Holy Order."

Li Xian was completely indifferent to watching the monarch and his ministers discuss the layout, all he wanted to do was get rid of the torment of practicing etiquette and return to the carefree life of salted fish, and he was even a little excited.

This time, Li Er supported himself and did a personnel matter!
At least one day I can enjoy the mountains and rivers and enjoy myself.

But in an instant, Li Xian's mood sank.

wrong!

Fang Yiai invited himself to the poetry meeting just to show off his own talent and beat me.

He even imagined that he could overwhelm me and make me lose face in public.

The Royal Poetry Society run by Li Er is very powerful, which is similar to the poetry society run by Fang Yiai.

If I show my skills at the poetry meeting and beat all the heroes, wouldn't I be able to secure the title of the number one talented scholar in the Tang Dynasty?
In this way, the official position is safe, and the marriage contract is not a matter of course?

In the end, wouldn't it be that I want to marry Princess Gaoyang?

hiss~
Thinking of this all of a sudden, Li Xian felt his scalp go numb!

After going around in circles, he fell into the trap set by Li Er and led himself into the pit?

No wonder Li Er's beloved daughter went back to the imperial city to file a complaint. This Li Er was still a normal person when he arrived in Li's residence!
[Well, Li Er, you have such a scheming plan!You almost plotted against me! 】

Li Shimin, who was negotiating matters with Li Jing, suddenly heard this voice, choked up his words, and turned his head.

Instead, he coughed lightly, talked to Li Jing again, nodded slightly, and leaned back on the back of the chair.

Li Xian touched his chin, his eyes seemed to have seen through Li Shimin's tricks, and he was quite disdainful.

【Tsk tsk!Li Er, you are also a member of the royal family, so if you want to fight for your daughter, is it okay to say it directly?Why such a big detour? 】

[The more dissatisfied I am, Li Xian, the more you want to put your daughter with me in an open and honest manner? 】

[As the saying goes, marrying wrongly destroys three generations, and the Li family is not prosperous, so don't come to harm the Li family again! 】

Ok?
Li Shimin almost choked on the tea that had just moistened his upper lip.

If I marry my daughter to you, it's fine if I don't think of the royal honor, but you boy still say it's a disaster?
It is true that Princess Gaoyang is spoiled and willful, but is it as unbearable as you said?
Is it possible that my daughter will do heinous things?Caused you so disgusted?

Thinking of this, Li Shimin, as a father, was a little restless.

Slowly putting down the teacup, Li Shimin glanced at the three people in the hall and adjusted his mind.

"Um……"

After a drawn out voice, Li Shimin pondered for a moment, then spoke slowly.

"Princess Gaoyang..."

As soon as the words fell, a voice suddenly sounded in my mind.

【coming!coming!Sure enough, Li Er was not kind, and wanted to avenge his personal revenge! 】

It's okay to say this from the bottom of my heart, but in my eyes, Li Jing stood up abruptly, half kneeling on the ground, bowing his head and cupping his hands.

"His Majesty!"

"The humble minister is incompetent in teaching his son, and indulges the dog to be rude to the royal family. His Majesty the King will punish him."

Hong Funu also knelt down on the ground one after another, wiping away the traces of her tears, and cried out.

"Your Majesty is benevolent, and Xian'er has no intention of contradicting him. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

On the contrary, Li Shimin was taken aback by Li Jing and his wife.

Just now I was thinking about how to be more reserved about this matter, after all it was Gao Yang who was messing around, how could it be that Li Fu took the lead in pleading guilty?
Standing up and supporting Li Jing's arm, Li Shimin sighed softly.

"Li Aiqing, Mrs. Li, please."

"Princess Gaoyang knows that she is spoiled and pampered. This time, she has violated the royal dignity by arguing with the Li family. I have already ordered her to restrain her."

boom.

Li Jing and Hong Funu felt that their minds were in chaos.

this?Why?

Your Majesty has always doted on Princess Gaoyang, but actually grounded her?
The two turned their heads, their eyes met, and their faces were full of surprise.

Li Shimin sat down again, swung his sleeves, and motioned for the two to sit down and talk.

"Hey~ Speaking of which, it's because I'm in charge of government affairs, with very little control, that's why I caused trouble."

From the corner of the eye, he glanced at the astonished Li Xian, and Li Shimin sighed and looked over.

"Li Xian, the royal family and the Li Mansion are married, you have to take care of me and restrain me."

At this time, Li Shimin did not have the demeanor of the old king, he completely showed the image of a loving father, Li Xian's lips parted slightly, quite surprised.

"Ah? Ah...?"

Li Shimin's eyes flashed, he glanced at Li Xian, and said slowly.

"What do you think... Princess Gaoyang?"

After going on for a long time, it is finally necessary to solve the mystery in his heart, Li Shimin's heartstrings seem to be agitated, and he is quite nervous.

【how?What do you think? 】

[Pampered and willful, wanton and reckless!As a married woman, she hooked up with the monk Bianji, which violated human relations and would be shamed by future generations! 】

[There is nothing wrong with it, you are an emperor through the ages, a Ming monarch of the Tang Dynasty, but the management of family affairs is not satisfactory. 】

【It's the father's fault whether to raise or not to teach!The reason why Princess Gaoyang is so temperamental is notorious, and you can't get rid of it because of emotion and reason!In other words, you are not being a good father! 】

This is what he said in his heart, but when Li Xian got up, he put on another rhetoric completely.

"Princess Gao Yang's temperament is unruly and capricious, but she is frank and lovely, pure and innocent."

"In addition to her beautiful appearance and the appearance of a celestial being, Li Xian feels very honored to be able to marry into the Li family."

Call ~
Li Shimin only felt that his heart was stuffy and he panicked.

Not only because of Gao Yang's heinous mistake, but also because of his deep self-blame.

What Li Xian said is right, he is busy with state affairs and manages a lot of affairs every day.Empress Changsun manages the harem, assists in state affairs, and raises the prince and Li Tai and Li Ke into talents.This is a physically and mentally exhausted body, how can I have the leisure to estimate the royal princess...

Swaying the dragon sleeves, Li Shimin let out a long breath, with a look of sadness floating on his cheeks.

"Li Xian, it is the blessing of the Li family that you know the etiquette at a young age."

"Speaking of which, I have indulged Gao Yang too much."

After waving to Eunuch Rong who was standing by the door of the hall, Li Shimin continued.

"According to my decree, Princess Gaoyang does not know the etiquette, so the confinement will be extended for half a month!"

When he stepped out of the mansion, Li Shimin smiled, turned his head, and patted Li Xian on the shoulder.

"Poetry Club is the world of young talents."

"Don't let me down."
