The immortal of the Tang Dynasty, but the game starts at Xuanwu Gate?

"Fine, fine, shut up right now." Li Shimin was speechless. Everyone was discussing such a serious matter, and you had to do this.

Let's say something like, "Anyway, you have to win the snowball fight."

what?

I can have you!

Chen Huai'an pursed his lips: "Anyway, I don't care, you have to write that I won the snowball fight."

Li Shimin ignored him, considered it seriously for a moment, and agreed: "Let's do it this way!"

"You and Kemin should handle this matter. Once the details are finalized, the workshops under the Ministry of Works will manufacture it... Um, Wei Zheng and Fu Ji, you should also get involved and help develop a series of regulations."

"Time... I don't demand anything of you, but you must hurry!"

"Your Majesty, we obey!"

The people whose names were called stood up and answered.

Chen Huai'an then suddenly said, "Actually, there's no need to expand it to the whole Tang Dynasty all at once. Let's try it out in Chang'an first, and then gradually expand it to the surrounding areas."

"At the same time, it can also help identify and fill in any gaps, and see where there are any errors or omissions."

"Furthermore, Chang'an is the capital, and there are too many people coming and going from the south and north. If we try it out in Chang'an first, the people will often spontaneously spread the news."

"It's also possible to gain some initiative first."

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin didn't hesitate at all: "That's settled then!"

"Let's test the use of the court report in Chang'an first. As for the Li family of Zhao County... let's delay for now. Anyway, Xue Wanche hasn't returned yet, so there's still time. Once the court report is ready, and the Li family of Zhao County makes their move, and other families follow suit, we'll immediately send out the court report."

"Do you understand?"

Du Ruhui and the others felt a pang of sorrow. With Li Shimin's order, they knew they would likely have trouble sleeping for some time to come.

However, they didn't refuse and agreed.

Immediately afterwards, everyone began to discuss various details. Chen Huai'an would occasionally chime in with his own opinions, but most of the time they were eating and drinking.

By the afternoon, the meal was finally over, and the ministers left one by one to attend to their own business.

Chen Huai'an also planned to go home.

However, at that moment, Li Shimin called out to him: "Wait a minute."

Chen Huai'an stopped in his tracks, then sat back down, puzzled. "Is there anything else, Your Majesty?"

Li Shimin nodded slightly: "Previously, you said that in order to avoid an overreaction from the aristocratic families, you would only publish two names. I understand your concerns."

"Are you worried that the appearance of something like this will affect our future plans?"

Chen Huai'an shook his head: "Didn't His Majesty decide to issue the court report only after the Zhao County Li family made their move and all the other aristocratic families had joined in?"

"At that point, they'll have no choice but to go down a dead-end road."

"I'm not worried, so I only said one sentence."

Li Shimin looked at him carefully for a moment and said, "You've worked hard."

Chen Huai'an was taken aback: "What?"

"I... said, 'You've worked hard,' are you deaf?"

Chen Huai'an: "..."

He scoffed, "It's not hard work, it's just a miserable life!"

"Hahahaha." Li Shimin was not annoyed at all, and laughed loudly, "Alright, I know you don't covet anything and you don't lack anything, but I won't shortchange you on the rewards you deserve."

"Of course, I know you seem quite interested in martial arts. How's your Shaolin martial arts training going?"

Mentioning this finally piqued Chen Huai'an's interest; he remembered that Li Shimin had previously said he would find more people for him.

"I have learned fairly well, and the masters have been very patient in their teaching. I wonder who else Your Majesty intends to send to instruct me?"

He really doesn't lack anything; this is his only hobby right now.

Li Shimin nodded: "I don't know why you want to learn martial arts so much, and I'm too lazy to ask. Since you like it, I'll help you think of a way."

Although Chen Huai'an was a civil official, he had no doubt about the other party's military prowess.

I remember when we first met, he and Wei Zheng were in the imperial prison. In the end, he ran away because he couldn't stand the hunger.

At first, when he saw the broken wooden pillar in the prison, he thought it had been broken by something, but later he realized that it must have been Chen Huai'an who broke it.

If he weren't a born superhuman, he wouldn't believe it even if you beat him to death.

However, Li Shimin didn't care. After all, superhuman strength is rare, but it's something that can still be seen eventually.

Isn't Qin Qiong one of them?

After pondering for a moment, Li Shimin remembered two people and said, "Have you ever heard the saying, 'External training focuses on muscles and bones, while internal training focuses on breath control'?"

"I've heard of them; they seem to be two different schools of thought, right?" Chen Huai'an replied with great interest.

"That's right," Li Shimin said. "Shaolin Kung Fu focuses on training muscles, bones, and skin; it belongs to the external style. If there is an external style, then there is naturally an internal style as well."

"But you haven't even mastered Shaolin Kung Fu yet, so don't think about internal martial arts for now. Focus on getting your body in good shape first. Once you've finished learning Shaolin Kung Fu, I'll find two internal martial arts masters to teach you."

"No problem!" Chen Huai'an agreed without hesitation. "Thank you, Your Majesty."

As for why we don't send someone to teach him now...

You can't bite off more than you can chew; that goes without saying.

Anyway, Chen Huai'an has plenty of time, so he can just wait.

Li Shimin casually waved his hand: "No need, you have helped me too much, and I have never asked for anything in return."

"I know that you have a sense of righteousness in your heart. Sometimes you don't want to help me, but you want to help the people of the world."

"Of course, I don't care. A gentleman judges by actions, not intentions."

"If you need anything, you can tell me at any time."

"Remember, it's anytime!"

Li Shimin's attitude suddenly became serious. Looking into his eyes, he instructed, "If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, don't worry, I'm here for you!"

Chen Huai'an's expression changed slightly.

Li Shimin... wasn't he from Yuzhou?

isn't it?

Li Shimin originally thought that his words would at least move or touch Chen Huai'an somewhat.

But the other person looked strange and even moved their body to the side.

Li Shimin immediately realized what was happening and cursed, "You son of a bitch, what are you thinking?"

"Get the hell out of here! I'm wasting my breath arguing with you!"

"Then I'll be going..." Chen Huai'an said, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon, and quietly moved his feet.

"You...I..." Li Shimin's face turned pale and then red. "Get out! Get out!"

"Why are you swearing?" Chen Huai'an muttered a couple of times and quickly left Xiande Hall.

After he left, Li Shimin's face remained dark for a long time before he finally gave a helpless laugh.

We're completely out of ideas.

"Never mind, things should get much better once this kid gets married," Li Shimin sighed.

Not long after he entered, Zhang Anan, who was standing behind him, hesitated for a long time upon hearing this, then lowered his voice and asked, "Your Majesty, speaking of which, why do you insist on having the Duke of Anguo marry the daughter of the Feng family...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Li Shimin slightly turned his head, his eyes icy: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"

"Yes...it's Your Majesty!"

"......"
