Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1949 The minister is the governor

Li Shimin stayed in the imperial study, feeling a little irritable.

Originally thought that Li Ke would be able to put down the rebels and relieve his Tang Dynasty's worries if he went here.

I never thought that Li Ke would become a prisoner as soon as he went, and was captured alive.

Shame, this is simply a shame to their Datang.

Now, the rebels want him to recognize the status of their Dali country, and he can't ignore Li Ke's life and death, but he can't just cede the land like this, it's really difficult for him.

The cold wind was blowing outside, and the snow was flying heavily.

The city of Chang'an was silvery white, and the small stove in the house would emit sparks from time to time.

Li Shimin couldn't help sighing. At this moment, a palace official hurried over: "My lord, Concubine Yang has been kneeling outside. It's been... for a while."

Li Shimin was a little surprised to hear Concubine Yang knelt outside for a while.

But soon, he understood what was going on. Concubine Yang's son had been captured. She probably hoped that she could save Li Ke, but how?
Facing Concubine Yang, he didn't know what to say.

"Tell Concubine Yang, let her go back first, I will find a way to deal with Li Ke."

The palace servants took the order to retreat, but quickly came back and said, "My lord, Concubine Yang is still kneeling in the heavy snow, refusing to leave."

"This..." Li Shimin was a little strange. After sighing helplessly, Li Shimin could only go out to see what was going on.

The wind was strong outside, Concubine Yang knelt on the snow and shivered from the cold, she almost became a snowman.

Seeing Concubine Yang like this, Li Shimin felt distressed for a while. She was his concubine after all. Back then, the relationship between the two was unparalleled.

She knelt on the snow like this, Li Shimin felt quite uncomfortable.

"My dear concubine, get up quickly, what are you doing?" Li Shimin quickly wanted to help Concubine Yang up, but Concubine Yang knelt down and said, "My lord, the King of Shu went to suppress the rebellion, but he underestimated the enemy carelessly, which caused my Tang Dynasty to be dissatisfied." It was the fault of the King of Shu that the major general was killed, and now that the King of Shu has been captured alive, he cannot plead guilty, and the concubine, as the mother and concubine of the King of Shu, should be punished on his behalf, please be punished severely by the Holy One."

Concubine Yang knelt on the thick snow, she looked so lovely and pitiful.

Li Shimin was taken aback, he thought Concubine Yang was asking him to save Li Ke, but he never thought that she was going to ask for punishment on behalf of Li Ke. At this moment, Li Shimin suddenly felt a little indescribable.

This kind of feeling used to only exist when he was with Empress Changsun.

"My concubine doesn't have to be like this. The King of Shu is also my prince. If you say that, I'm wrong too?"

"Don't dare, that's not what the concubine meant." Concubine Yang showed great panic.

This time Li Shimin really helped Concubine Yang up, casually patted off the snowflakes on her body, and then dragged him into the imperial study.

The temperature in the imperial study room was higher than outside, and it was very warm. Concubine Yang's face turned slightly rosy after she entered.

"My dear concubine, I know that you are a person who understands righteousness, but I also know that as a parent, no matter who is willing to give up his child, you don't have to plead for Li Ke. I will find a way to save him for Li Ke's matter." of."

Li Shimin was really comforting Concubine Yang, and he didn't intend to perfuse her at all. After all, as a father, he didn't want anything to happen to his son.

But at this time, Concubine Yang suddenly knelt down again, and said: "My lord, I know that there are many people in the court who want my lord to agree to the conditions of the rebels in order to rescue Ke'er, but although my lord is a woman, But I also know that this is absolutely impossible, so even if the Holy Majesty wants to save Ke'er, he can't indulge those rebels, otherwise, with this lesson learned from the past, other people can't carve up our Tang Dynasty?"

Concubine Yang's words touched Li Shimin's heart again.

"Don't worry, my concubine, I won't do this. I have a lot of talents in the Tang Dynasty. Isn't there a few who can rescue the King of Shu?"

When he said this, even Li Shimin himself was a little bit unconfident.

This morning, the reaction of the group of ministers clearly explained the situation, let alone someone willing to lead the army, not even one person dared to stand up and say a few words.

The majestic Tang Dynasty has come to this point, Li Shimin's heart is very hurt.

Concubine Yang didn't point it out here, but echoed: "What the Holy Majesty said is very true. We have a lot of talents in the Tang Dynasty. If nothing else, talents like Qin Tian are not comparable to others. We need to find other people. There is absolutely no problem with a few people coming to rescue Ke'er."

When talking about Qin Tian, ​​Concubine Yang just said it casually, but what he said casually gave Li Shimin a reminder. This ability rescued Li Ke and put down the rebellion, but Qin Tian must have this ability.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at Concubine Yang and said, "Concubine Yang is right. Don't worry, the King of Shu will definitely be fine."

Hearing what Li Shimin said, Concubine Yang knew that she had succeeded, so she didn't stay in the imperial study room, bowed and retreated, she couldn't take up too much of Li Shimin's time, he wanted Li Shimin to go to Qin Tian immediately.

After Concubine Yang retreated, Li Shimin really immediately sent palace guards to call Qin Tian into the palace.

The heavy snow in Chang'an City is still falling, the weather is very cold, Qin Tian is a little reluctant to enter the palace, firstly, it is cold, and secondly, the story of Li Ke's capture has already been spread throughout Chang'an. So why Li Shimin asked him to enter the palace, he can guess a little bit.

What happened this morning is no secret.

In this way, if such a difficult task falls on his shoulders, it will definitely crush him.

Moreover, if he really completes these tasks, can he really become a prince?

After becoming a prince, he will be a thorn in Li Shimin's side from now on. Although he wants to develop their Qin family, he never wants to make enemies, especially enemies like Li Shimin.

It's just that all the palace people have come, so it's a bit unreasonable for Qin Tian not to go to the palace.

Qin Tian hurried into the palace, the weather was a bit cold, so that his nose was red.

"Qin Tian, ​​Inspector of Chen Jingzhao Mansion, pays homage to the Holy Majesty."

Qin Tian just saluted, and didn't ask Li Shimin what he wanted him to do in the palace. Li Shimin glanced at Qin Tian and said, "Qin Aiqing doesn't need to be too polite. I've asked you today because I have something to tell you."

Qin Tian didn't mention it, it doesn't mean that Li Shimin didn't say it, Qin Tian smiled wryly, knowing that he couldn't escape after all, so he could only bite the bullet and ask: "I don't know what the Holy Majesty wants to tell me?"

"The king of Shu, Li Ke, was captured by the rebel army. I think you are the only one who can save him. I want you to lead the army. What do you think?"

"My lord, this subject is the governor."
