The banquet had always been held in the Imperial Palace. In the past, it was always held in Han Feng Palace, and it was the same this year.
It was a day of rest and there was no need for court. Many officials personally sent the children and their wives to the entrance of the palace before leaving.
It was the same for the ordinary officials of the fifth and sixth ranks, as well as the current dukes and princes. After all, this was a banquet organized by the Empress, so he had to give her some face.
"Brat, you have to perform well this time. If any of the young ladies take a fancy to you, this old master won't have to worry about your next life.”
An official said to his son.
The others were generally the same.
Only the top officials of the Great Tang were not like this. After all, they were already in high positions and held great power. Unless they were married to the royal family, they would not look down on others.
These people's words were usually directed at the crown prince, princes, and even princesses.
For example, the current Crown Prince. Many young ladies were targeting him.
Because no matter how one looked at it, the one who would inherit the throne in the future should be Li Shimin. Therefore, there were many young ladies who wanted to fly up to the branches and become phoenixes.
When Li Cheng Xin inherited the throne in the future, she would be able to directly become the Empress of the current dynasty. This was what many people yearned for.
This was why every year, Li Cheng Xin would be the center of attention.
Other than that, the princesses were the ones who received the most attention. After all, as long as they became the Emperor's son-in-law, although they could no longer have three wives and four concubines, they would have endless wealth and splendor.
After all, if he became the Prince Consort, he would be put in an important position by Li Shiming. It could be said that it was a shortcut to promotion and wealth.
Outside the Vermilion Bird Gate, there was a commotion.
At this moment, a carriage slowly drove over. Li Changge, Li Jingren, and Li Yueli slowly alighted from it.
All of a sudden, the three of them attracted the attention of the audience because Li Changge's name was now very famous in Chang 'an City!
Although Li Shimin was the one who had ordered the slapping of the Crown Prince and the kidnapping of the bride, Li Changge was still eye-catching.
Two times in a row, everyone thought he was done for, but not only was he fine, he had even become one of the most respected existences in the Great Tang, a Third Grade Great General.
"Greetings, Great General Kingsford!"
All the officials present hurriedly bowed. In this huge imperial court, there was only this group of people who could sit on equal footing with Li Changge.
Although there were quite a few of them, after all, just the founding heroes alone could be compared to more than ten or even twenty of them. In the early days of the Great Tang, there were many dukes.
The young disciples of the various families also bowed to Li Changge, but their eyes were clearly filled with jealousy.
After all, Li Changge was only fifteen years old, but he had already become a third-grade general. This was comparable to Gan Luo in ancient times.
Of course, many people were not happy with Li Changge's position. After all, Li Changge had only completed Li Shimin's order to kidnap the bride and suffered some grievances, so he could be promoted to the rank of Great General.
If it were them, they would be happy to do this ten times!
However, they didn't know that Li Shimin had bestowed this official position to Li Changge to help him solve his problems.
Ever since Li Changge entered Chang 'an and fell out with the Crown Prince, the officials of the imperial court had already started to get on each other's bad side.
Although they didn't hate Li Changge, they definitely didn't like him. After all, in their eyes, Li Changge dared to hit the Crown Prince. This kind of person was a lunatic.
However, after Li Shiming revealed that Li Changge was his confidant, this feeling disappeared.
They would think that Li Changge was Li Shimin's trusted aide since he was a child, and that he was Li Shimin's favorite. Not only were they not afraid, but they were also trying to rope him in. After all, Li Shiming might have been the one who had led them to do so.
Many people even suspected that Li Changge beating up Li Chenghao was instigated by Li Shimin. His goal was to beat up the Crown Prince. After all, the Crown Prince had been forming cliques all these years.
It had to be said that it was difficult to survive in the officialdom. One still had to figure out the emperor's will.
Their guesses were similar to Zhangsun Wuji's. Li Chenghao had indeed kept a low profile during this period of time. After all, Li Shiming had snatched the throne himself. They thought that it was entirely possible for Li Shiming to treat his son like this.
Li Cheng Hao had been forming cliques, so Li Shi Min couldn't help but feel that he had bad intentions.
In fact, they were really overthinking. Li Shimin simply wanted to help Li Changge solve the problem so that he could continue to stay in Chang 'an.
Otherwise, if Li Changge couldn't be found, even if he was sixteen, his Ninth Prince wouldn't be able to come back.
