Li Shimin looked at Yap with satisfaction.
According to the Guanyin maid, this kid was indeed extraordinary after receiving guidance from an expert.
In comparison, Green Sparrow was not that outstanding. However, it was already very good for him to wash my feet. It could be seen that he was filial.
Yap Liangchen felt a chill down his spine when he saw the man looking at him with such a strange look. He quickly interrupted him.
Li Shi Min came back to his senses and stretched out his palm.
Yap Liangchen nodded. Seeing Zhangsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Qin Qiong and the others also stand up, he didn't ask them to stay and stood up to send them off." Take care, everyone."”
"Brother Ye, there's no need to send me off."
Zhangsun Wuji and the others cupped their hands and left with Li Shimin.
Of course, they were very happy. First, they had invested in the saltpeter business, and second, they knew Yap Liangchen's identity.
Empress Zhangsun didn't know that Yap Liangchen was His Majesty's illegitimate son.
When the Emperor forced them into a corner, they went to Empress Zhangsun to complain, saying that the Emperor had raised an illegitimate child outside the palace.
......
Tang Imperial Palace, Political Affairs Hall.
This was the place where the prime ministers of the Great Tang held their meetings.
Sunset.
Wei Zheng entered with a smile on his face. He was in a good mood.
He, Zhangsun Wuji, and Qin Qiong had invested in the saltpeter business, each holding 10% of the shares. This meant that they had a source of income.
Although he was an Imperial Censor and received five hundred stone meters a year, he was still a little short of money to support his wife, children, and servants.
Wei Zheng didn't care about gray income, so it was best to invest in a proper business.
"Lord Wei, what's wrong? Did you pick up money?”
Fang Xuanling, who had just finished dealing with government affairs, had just stood up and stretched his muscles when he saw Wei Zheng walking over with a smug expression. He teased him.
"Lord Fang, you're right.”
Wei Zheng was in a good mood and immediately told them about it. Just now, the Emperor brought them to see that immortal disciple and even brought them a business deal, so he was very happy.
"The white-robed youth who looks exactly like His Majesty? Could this person be the Emperor's illegitimate son outside the palace?”
The more Fang Xuanling listened, the more he felt something was wrong. Then, his expression changed slightly.
Seeing this, Fang Xuanling pulled him to the side. There was no one around.
"I guess so." Wei Zheng nodded.
He had been scolded by the Emperor many times, but it was always Fang Xuanling who spoke up to persuade him to reconcile. The two of them had a deep friendship, and this news was just gossip about the Emperor. There was nothing that could not be revealed.
Fang Xuanling instantly understood and chuckled."Even if a prince like this is conferred the title of king, he won't have much status. His Majesty has produced many princes.”
"That might not be the case. His Majesty likes this youth very much.”Wei Zheng thought of the Emperor's affection for the youth and hesitated.
"So what if you value him? He's not Empress Zhangsun's son, so it's impossible for him to inherit the throne.”
Fang Xuanling was talking to himself. He was now in charge of the Eastern Palace, so he naturally spoke up to help Li Chengqian. He also subconsciously had hostility towards this future prince, Ye Liangchen, who was wandering among the people.
"Lord Fang, you misunderstood. What I meant was that His Majesty likes this youth very much, but he didn't say that this youth could inherit the throne.”Wei Zheng smiled. Fang Xuanling was thinking too much.
This throne would definitely belong to Crown Prince Li Chengqian, as long as the Crown Prince did not rebel. If Your Majesty were to abolish it, I, Wei Zheng, would be the first to remonstrate.
Fang Xuanling blushed.
It didn't matter how much Ye Liangchen tortured him, but the Crown Prince's enemy was still the King of Wei, Li Tai.
Ever since the King of Wei moved into the Hall of Martial Virtue, his henchmen became even more arrogant.
"Only you and I know that His Majesty has an illegitimate child outside the palace.”
Wei Zheng grabbed Fang Xuanling's hand tightly.
Fang Xuanling nodded and Wei Zheng left.
He thought about how he planned for the Crown Prince to stabilize his position as the Crown Prince and sighed.
The reason why he worked so hard was because he wanted to be an elder of two dynasties.
In this era, he could not compare to Zhangsun Wuji. After Du Ruhui died, he could only be the second in a thousand years.
However, in the next dynasty, he wanted to be below one person and above ten thousand people.
That's right, Fang Xuanling's ambition was the powerful Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, Li Si, whose name would go down in history.
As long as he could hold on until the day the Crown Prince ascended the throne, it would be fine.
......
"Guanyin maid, how much ice is left in the ice storage room of the Food Bureau?”
"Um."
Empress Zhangsun was stunned for a moment, then immediately called the palace maid in charge and asked.
After the palace maid heard this, she ordered the little palace maid to bring the book over. Then, she replied respectfully,
" Your Majesty?"
Taiji Palace was located in the north of Chang 'an. It was a low-lying place. It was extremely hot in summer, especially at night. If there was no ice beside the bed, it would be extremely stuffy.
She could endure it, but His Majesty had wind disease and was most afraid of heat and humidity.
"Guanyin maid, don't panic. Zhen will explain to you later.”Li Shimin stepped forward and held her hand.
"Is this Liangchen's idea?" Empress Zhangsun suddenly asked.”
Li Shi Min nodded, and she immediately felt relieved.
The palace maid in charge trembled.
At least a few thousand people had to be transferred. However, if he asked for the commander's seal from His Majesty, would he be misunderstood as having disloyalty?
His Majesty relied on the Black Tortoise Sect's mutiny to rise to power. He would definitely be afraid of me.
It was better to wait for His Majesty to speak.
"Didn't you hear what I said? Why don't you move it?"
Li Shi Min saw that the palace maid was still here and couldn't help but feel slightly angry.
"Your Majesty, how long will it take for you to move more than 10,000 catties of ice?”Empress Zhangsun couldn't help but chide.
Li Shimin blushed and took out a commander's seal from his pocket. He threw it over." I order you to dispatch the imperial guards to transport it to the Eastern and Western Cities for sale."”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The palace maid in charge took the commander's seal and left in a hurry as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden.
