Chapter 260 Imperially confers King Huai and bestows on Qingzhou

"I have seen Your Majesty."

Standing in the hall, Chen Qiao simply gave a hand-to-hand salute.

"Chen Qing has something to say?"

Li Shimin's expression softened, and he looked at Chen Qiao with a gentle expression.

"Although the eldest prince is very immoral, he has never made any serious mistakes. Your Majesty, please take pity on the first prince for the sake of the former empress."

Chen Qiao said in a calm voice.

In fact, this time, Chen Qiao had discussed with Li Shimin in advance. After all, Li Shimin had just issued the decree to abolish the prince. Li Shimin needed someone to intercede for Li Chengqian in order to make him king and reward him with fiefdoms.And this pleading person, only Chen Qiao is the most suitable.

Hearing Chen Qiao's words, Li Shimin was silent for a moment. Just when the courtiers thought that Li Shimin was about to get angry, Li Shimin asked calmly, "Could it be that Chen Qing also thinks that I shouldn't abolish the crown prince?"

Even if you are acting, you have to be more thoughtful.

"No, it's hard for the eldest prince to inherit the rule due to his lack of virtue." Chen Qiao said again.

Now, the ministers of the whole court were a little at a loss, even Qin Qiong and Li Jing didn't get any news in advance.Li Jing frowned and looked at Chen Qiao, and then at Li Shimin who was standing on a high place, he couldn't figure it out for a while.

Cheng Yaojin, who has always been the most straightforward, was eager to try. He was afraid that Li Shimin would blame Chen Qiao, so he wanted to speak out, but he was stopped by Qin Qiong and Li Jing as usual.

Changsun Wuji, who stood at the head of the group of officials, seemed to have suddenly understood the joints. He turned his head and looked at Wei Zheng who was standing behind him. Both of them showed a tacit smile. The minister next to the two of them was even more confused.

After a long silence, Li Shimin finally spoke, "Then according to what Chen Qing said, how should I feel sorry for Chengqian?"

Realizing that Li Shimin's words had softened, the courtiers couldn't help whispering.

"The eldest prince has been the crown prince for several years. Once he loses power, he will inevitably be bullied by others, my lord," Chen Qiao said, looking up at Li Shimin, "Please Your Majesty crown the eldest prince as a king and reward him with fiefdoms, so as to ensure that the eldest prince will have no worries in the future."

Hearing Chen Qiao finally uttered these words, Li Shimin looked at Chen Qiao who was speaking righteously, and a smile flashed across his face, "Oh? As far as I know, Cheng Qian had made things difficult for Chen Qing several times before. , Chen Qing has no grudge against the prince?"

Chen Qiao was taken aback. When he discussed this matter with Li Shimin yesterday, Li Shimin didn't mention this at all.

"It's a family after all, so how can we bear grudges?" Chen Qiao said calmly.

Li Shimin smiled even wider, and finally nodded, "Okay, since Chen Qing has let the past go, I will follow what Chen Qing said."

The courtiers who didn't know what was going on looked at Chen Qiao in surprise for a while. After this incident, they knew once again that Chen Qiao's position in Li Shimin's heart was beyond their imagination.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Chen Qiao saluted again.

Although Li Shimin wanted to crown Li Chengqian as king, he had to think carefully about the title and land.He really didn't want to discuss this matter in the court, so he passed Chen Qiao and Changsun Wuji to the Tai Chi Hall after the next court.

"Tell me, what title should Cheng Qian give?"

As soon as the three of them sat down in the Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin asked a question.

Chen Qiao curled his lips and refused to speak, but he still remembered that Li Shimin didn't follow the plan just now.

Li Shimin knew what Chen Qiao was thinking, so he only looked at Changsun Wuji, "Auxiliary machine, what do you think?"

Changsun Wuji's eyes fell on Chen Qiao and Li Shimin one after another, and suddenly he said with a smile: "Your Majesty and General Chen had a good show, and almost deceived the minister."

Hearing this, Li Shimin laughed a few times, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you, so just tell me."

Changsun Wuji has always been very fond of his nephews because of the reason of the eldest grandson empress. He naturally does not want to see Li Chengqian being bullied in the future. As for Li Tai who doesn't care about his brotherhood, he also I really can't be bothered.

"I think His Majesty already has an idea." Changsun Wuji pushed the question back to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin pointed at his eldest grandson Wuji and shook his head with a smile, "Indeed, I have already drawn up a title for Chengqian, you two have a look." Then, Li Shimin handed a piece of cloth to the two of them.

"Husband?"

After seeing the words written on the cloth, Changsun Wuji looked at Li Shimin with some doubts.

"May I ask Your Majesty, what does this mean?"

Li Shimin said: "There is no deep meaning, but I hope that when he goes to the feudal land in the future, he can think about some of the principles that I and the Guanyin maid taught him when he was young."

Changsun Wuji sighed deeply, and then knelt down to Li Shimin, "Your Majesty is kind and loving, and I thank you on behalf of the empress."

Li Shimin stepped forward to help the eldest grandson Wuji up, "The Guanyin maidservant is most worried about Chengqian. He has been named the prince since he was a child. I have me watching from above, and my brothers below are watching. He is too tired to have the attention of the officials."

Hearing Li Shimin say this, Chen Qiao knew that Li Shimin really felt guilty towards Li Chengqian, but as an emperor, he couldn't say too much. He is not only Li Chengqian's grandfather, but also the monarch of all people in the world. .

"I understand, I understand." Changsun Wuji said with red eyes.

"I wonder where Your Majesty intends to make the First Prince's fiefdom?" Chen Qiao asked from the side.

Li Shimin led the two of them to the map, pointed to a place that was very familiar to Chen Qiao and said, "Qingzhou."

A few years ago, when Chen Qiao led the army to Japan for the first time, he had been stationed in Qingzhou for one night.It has to be said that Qingzhou is indeed a rich and fertile place, and it is very suitable as the fiefdom of Li Chengqian, who makes Li Shimin feel guilty.

A few days later, Li Shimin decreed to confer Li Chengqian as King Huai, and made Qingzhou his fiefdom.

"When will elder brother leave for Qingzhou?" Li Lizhi asked in the general's mansion, lying in Chen Qiao's arms after being punched in the stomach again.

Chen Qiao put his arms around Li Lizhi, pondered for a moment and said, "I'm going to leave after the new year."

Li Lizhi sighed and rubbed her belly, "It seems that when this child was born, my elder brother was already far away in Qingzhou."

Chen Qiao chuckled, "At that time, if you want King Huai to come back, it's not impossible. After all, His Majesty never said that King Huai was not allowed to enter the capital."

"Is it possible?" Li Lizhi asked in surprise.

Chen Qiao nodded her delicate nose and said, "Of course."

When it was time for dinner, Chen Qiao looked at Li Lizhi and Fu Lan who were sitting beside him, and said, "When King Wu came to the mansion a few days ago, I said I wanted to invite King Wu and Princess Wu to come to the mansion some time ago. Sit up, sit down, now that King Huai is about to leave, I thought it would be better to take this opportunity to let them meet, then I will call King Jin and Princess Yuzhang, and you brothers and sisters will have a good get-together."

"But... the eldest brother and the fourth brother..."

Li Lizhi spoke worriedly. Although she also wanted to let Li Chengqian and Li Ke settle their suspicions, she was afraid that they would be calculating. Even if they called everyone, she was only afraid that they would make superficial efforts because they were worried about her.

Chen Qiao stroked Li Lizhi's beautiful hair, and said, "It's okay, King Huai has already thought about it, and King Wu is not a small-hearted person. When the time comes, with the persuasion of King Jin and Princess Yuzhang, he will definitely shake hands." Peaceful."

"If that's the case, then it's up to you to decide."

Hearing what Chen Qiao said, Li Lizhi relaxed her frown and agreed.

Seeing Li Lizhi agree, Chen Qiao and Fu Lan looked at each other and smiled reassuringly.

After dinner, Chen Qiao sent people to Prince Huai's Mansion, Prince Wu's Mansion and the palace to deliver posts.This post also specifically stated that Li Chengqian and Li Ke were asked to bring their wives and children.
