Li Shimin is in a heavy mood now. When he was facing the memorial submitted to him by Dali Temple through a thorough investigation, he suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem.%%() But before he could respond, Li Ke from Taiyuan chopped off one of Murong Shun's arm and gave it to Li Chengqian, which put him in a passive position. He wanted to keep his appearance in Tuyuhun? Then his son was injured, and the queen fell into a coma because of this matter. Even if he woke up, he was very weak, which was unbearable. But if he really wanted to start a war with Tuyuhun for this matter, as the Tang Dynasty

He disagreed with the king of 100 people. Since the Tang Dynasty fought against the Turks last year, it consumed countless money and food, and the new army had lost 70% of the money and food. Even the brave and good warriors of Bingzhou had lost a lot of money. Now, if you want to fight with Tuyuhun, what should you do? In order to start forming and training, the new army in Bingzhou is carrying out military reform. Just rely on the army of less than 100,000 in Shuofang? Li Shimin shook his head and denied this idea. There are more than 100,000 troops in Shuofang, with only 300,000 cavalry, and the rest are infantry. It is still okay to defend the city. If you want to fight with Tuyuhun, a 300,000 string control man, it is difficult to win.

Li Ke, what are you thinking?

Li Shimin was very dissatisfied with his son's arm killing Murong Shun and sending it back to Chang'an. If it were in normal times, he would definitely be very happy that his son would stand up for his brother's grievance. But he was famous for doing this in front of him, but he put himself in a dilemma. This was Li Shimin quite angry.

Thinking of today's court discussion, he felt even more frustrated. The court officials naturally did not mention that the injured prince and Tuyuhun were both matters, but this just touched the sensitive king. The so-called Changsun Wuji, who actually hurriedly left to the East Palace after the court meeting, clearly expressing his dissatisfaction with the failure to deal with the prince incident at the court meeting.

Let’s go and see Chengqian! Li Shimin sighed and walked towards the East Palace.

Li Chengqian, the prince of the Eastern Palace, changed his spirits under the guidance of Changsun Wuji. Now he is energetic and does not have the decadence he used to be. He is seriously practicing reading "The Analects of Confucius".

When Li Shimin came to the Eastern Palace, the eunuch was about to go in and report to Li Chengqian, but Li Shimin stopped him. His purpose was to see how Li Chengqian was doing in the past few days? To be honest, Li Shimin felt that if he had to put this matter on him, he might not feel good, let alone Li Chengqian?

However, what surprised him was that when he walked into Li Chengqian's bedroom, he saw that it was not Li Chengqian who was decadent and lost his fighting spirit, but a prince who was energetic and determined to work hard.

Li Chengqian looked carefully and did not notice Li Shimin who had arrived at the bedroom. Li Shimin stepped forward and came to Li Chengqian's bed. He saw him studying the "Analects of Confucius? Learning", Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian quietly, and saw Li Chengqian taking notes while studying.

It is well known that the core concept in Confucius's thought is benevolence. Benevolent people love their relatives, their neighbors, and their strangers they have never met until everything in the world is in a state where the benevolent people are one with all things in the world. However, Confucius regarded filial piety and brotherhood as the foundation of benevolence or benevolence, which shows how much Confucius attached to them. Confucius believed that if a person could respect his parents and brothers, he would not commit rebellion. Because the person who committed rebellion would not only bring disaster to himself, but also implicate his parents and brothers, and shame his family and defiled his ancestors' temples.

Therefore, the "Analects of Confucius? Xueer" mainly talks about filial piety in benevolence.

"Disciples come in and be filial, and when they leave, they are younger than others, be cautious and trustworthy, love the people, and be kind. If you have the strength to do things, you can learn literature" ("The Analects of Confucius. Learning") In life, the first thing you come into contact with is your parents, brothers and sisters. Of course, family affection becomes the most primitive and basic feelings of a person, and filial piety is the most core bond to maintain family affection. A person who can be filial to his parents at home can respect others in society, be honest and trustworthy, and be close to be kind, then he can settle down and achieve his own career. This is what Li Chengqian studied.

Li Chengqian never found Li Shimin by his side, and Li Shimin was quietly watching his son. When Li Chengqian read the "Analects of Confucius? Xueer", Zixia said: "A wise man can do his best. He can serve his parents and help him. He can make his own contributions. He can make friends with friends and has faith. Even if he says he has not learned, I will definitely call him learning." At that time, he raised a pen beside him and wrote: As a minister, he should serve the king and his father as a filial piety. He will give up his body, his righteousness, and his destiny!

When Li Shimin saw this, tears almost flowed out of his eyes. He knew very well what Li Chengqian's annotation meant. But he still controlled his emotions well and said lightly, "Chengqian, you are very good. You have not disappointed me. You have risen up in adversity and are worthy of being my prince!"

Li Shimin's words came from the heart and were sincere and touching. When Li Chengqian heard it, he felt warm in his heart, his nose felt sour, and tears flowed out of his eyes.

"Son, please see the father!" He thought of getting up as he spoke, but was stopped by Li Shimin.

"No need to be polite, you can recover from your injuries!"

"Thank you, Father!" Li Chengqian choked.

When did the father praise himself? It seemed that a long time ago, when he had not been the crown prince, the father would often praise him, but as he became the crown prince, he never praised him like today! This made Li Chengqian feel happy and sad. What was happy was that his father praised him again. He felt sorry for him that he would pay such a great price for this praise.

"Chengqian, you must recuperate well. The incident of falling off a horse and being injured has been ordered to investigate Dali Temple strictly. I really won't let you suffer a grievance!" Seeing the tears in his son's eyes, thinking of his comment just now, Li Shimin suddenly couldn't suppress his indignation and said to Li Chengqian.

"Father, can you discuss something with you?" Li Chengqian said this after thinking about it for a while.

"Tell me! As long as it is within the authority of the father, the father will definitely agree to you." Li Shimin said kindly.

The review system of the three provinces and six ministries implemented by the Tang Dynasty restricted the imperial power, and the emperor's rights were not as great as those of the Song and Ming and Qing dynasties in later generations. Many major affairs of the court were drafted by the Secretary of the Secretariat. After discussion with the ministers and the emperor, they were handed over to their subordinates for review, and they were implemented by the Secretariat. Therefore, Li Shimin had this statement.

"Father, as the crown prince, I should share the national affairs for my father and solve the problems. How can I cause trouble for you? The Analects of Confucius said, this is not filial piety. Therefore, I would like to take back my father's affairs and do not need to be investigated again." Li Chengqian whispered. When he said this, he did not dare to look down on Li Shimin, which made Li Shimin even more sure that this was what Li Chengqian thought.

"you--"

"Father, the Tang Dynasty had just experienced the Turkic War, and it was impossible to fight with Tuyuhun now. My son thought that the father should put national affairs first!" Li Chengqian plucked up the courage to advise Li Shimin.

"Okay - OK! OK! Chengqian, you have finally grown up!" Li Shimin was happy and said three good words in a row. He said to Li Chengqian, "You don't have to worry about this matter. I will solve it yourself. As for you, it's better to recover from the injury first. After the injury is healed, you will listen to the government in Liangyi Palace. You should be at the age of studying politics!"

"Thank you, Father!" Li Chengqian said excitedly.

When Li Shimin saw his son's excitement, his guilt reduced a lot, and a faint smile appeared on his face. This was relief and joy!
