Zhangsun Wuji didn't see Li Shimin last night and came over again this afternoon.
In Taiji Palace, Li Shimin was handling political affairs.
Seeing Zhangsun Wuji come, Li Shimin had the intention to test the deposed.
"Fuji, why did you come to see me?”Li Gong put down his pen and asked indifferently.
"Your Majesty, this old minister came here to pay his respects to Your Majesty. At the same time, I would like to ask when the decree regarding the salt and iron official camp will be issued.”Zhangsun Wuji cupped his hands and said.
He naturally wouldn't say that he was testing Li Gong's attitude on behalf of Gao Ming.
Zhangsun Wuji didn't test him, but Li Shiming wanted to test him.
"Fuji, zhen wants to appoint another crown prince. What do you think?”Li Gong said casually.
Zhangsun Wuji was stunned.
He looked at Li Gong with a muddled mind and said with a trembling voice,"Your…Your Majesty just…just said…said that you want to appoint another Crown Prince?”
"What do you think?" Li Gong looked at Zhangsun Wuji and nodded.
What do I think?
What opinion could I have?
Zhangsun Wuji's heart was about to jump out of his chest.
He spent so much effort on Gao Ming because he was the eldest son. As long as he didn't make a big mistake, he would definitely become the Emperor of the Tang Empire.
Now that you said you wanted to abolish the Crown Prince, then wouldn't all the effort he had put into Gao Ming over the years become a joke?
"Your Majesty, ever since the Crown Prince entered the Eastern Palace, although he has made small mistakes, he has never made a big mistake.”
"If His Majesty issues an edict, I'm afraid the entire court will fall into chaos.”
Zhangsun Wuji fell to his knees with a thud.
His current state could be described as tearful.
If Gao Ming was crippled, then wouldn't all his years of management be in vain?
If Green Sparrow succeeded to the throne, even if she did not mess with Zhangsun Wuji, she would not put him in an important position!
His Majesty doted on the green sparrow to such an extent?
Zhangsun Wuji was nervous.
Li Shiming was also stunned. He was just testing the waters, who would have thought that Zhangsun Wuji would be so agitated.
Thinking of Zhangsun Wuji's identity, he felt slightly relieved.
However, Li Shi Min also understood that if he said this in the court, he would probably be put on the spot.
Wei Zheng, that old man, would probably point at Li Shimin and scold him.
Moreover, he could not reveal Yan Lin's identity.
Otherwise, it would be harming Yan Lin.
The officials would not agree to a country boy directly sitting on the position of Crown Prince.
Li Gong felt a headache.
He waved his hand and gestured for Zhangsun Wuji to get up.
"Ancestors, zhen was just casually saying that. You don't have to worry!”Li Shi Min said.
How could Zhangsun Wuji not be worried?
His Majesty's guarantee was too perfunctory.
"Your Majesty, the Great Tang has just risen, and the Crown Prince has done nothing wrong. You must not rashly talk about the Crown Prince's dethronement, or else the hearts of the people will change, and it will not be beneficial to the country!”
"The Crown Prince is His Majesty's legitimate son. If he didn't make a huge mistake and rashly abolish the crown prince, wouldn't that go against His Majesty's promise?”Zhangsun Wuji said loudly.
Li Gong had spoken on the first day he became the emperor.
The throne of the Great Tang could only be inherited by the eldest son.
Only when the eldest son committed a major mistake or died would it be extended to the other princes.
Zhangsun Wuji wanted to remind Li Gong that Gao Ming was still fine. It would not be the green sparrow's turn.
How could he know that the Crown Prince candidate in Li Shiming's heart was not Green Sparrow?
It was Yan Lin from Bie Lin Pavilion. Zhangsun Wuji left Taiji Palace and wiped the cold sweat off his neck.
His Majesty's seemingly unintentional words just now made Zhangsun Wuji raise a trace of vigilance.
He didn't tell Yu Gao Ming about this matter, but went straight home and thought about his next move.
……
The next morning, Duke Wei's Public House received an invitation from the Empress.
He invited Li Jing's wife, Zhang Chuchen, to enter the palace to talk to the Empress.
Li Niannian accepted the invitation.
This was because Zhang Chuchen had gone to Pingkang Lane early in the morning with a long sword in hand.
Yan Lin felt that there seemed to be more people coming to his restaurant recently.
Early in the morning, he heard a series of hurried knocks on the door of the restaurant.
Hearing this voice, he knew that this person came with ill intentions.
Although he didn't want to open the door, he thought that if he didn't see it, the person outside wouldn't let it go.
He opened the door.
Sure enough, as soon as he opened the door, a long sword was placed on Yan Lin's neck.
"Are you the owner of this restaurant?"
"You're so young and good-looking. Why did you do such a dirty thing?”
Before Yan Lin could speak, he heard the woman in front of him roar at him.
"This auntie…"
"Good boy, you dare to call me auntie!”Zhang Chuchen was furious.
Even though his daughter had already grown up, Zhang Chuchen was still unwilling to accept his old age.
No one dared to call her auntie to her face.
This kid was actually so unbridled.
He would definitely break his limbs and hang them on the restaurant's signboard.
"Sister, Yan Lin has never met you before. I wonder how he offended you?”Yan Lin said with a smile.
The sword on his neck was extremely sharp.
He could feel the hairs on his neck stand up.
The woman in front of him was obviously a little crazy.
If he didn't do as she said, Yan Lin couldn't guarantee that this woman wouldn't have a cramp in her head and slash at him.
"Sister? You're quite smart." Zhang Chuchen snorted coldly and withdrew his sword.
She came here to ask about the situation first.
If she killed him without asking clearly, it would not be in line with her style. Zhang Chuchen sat down at the side and placed his sword on the table.
She could also tell that Yan Lin had no martial arts skills and his body seemed to have a hidden illness.
Taking him down would be a piece of cake.
"Sit down, I'll ask you." Zhang Chuchen looked at Yan Lin.
"I am Yan Lin." Yan Lin said indifferently.
"I don't care what your name is." Zhang Chuchen glanced at Yan Lin and said coldly.
"Young Master, the Laba Congee is ready.”Yan Lin sat down opposite Zhang Chuchen.
Just as he was about to retort, Xian Shu came out of the kitchen with a bowl of fragrant Laba Congee and placed it in front of Yan Lin.
" Young Master, this Madam is…" Seeing a woman sitting in front of Yan Lin, Xian Shu asked curiously.
"This is an old friend of mine who came to visit today.”Yan Lin explained.
However, he also didn't want Xian Shu to worry about him.
" So you're a friend of the Young Master. Then I'll bring a bowl for Madam as well…"
"No need, Xian Shu. She is not used to eating these things.”Yan Lin interrupted Xian Shu.
Zhang Chuchen's expression froze.
Just now, she thought that this porridge was very fragrant and different from the ones she had eaten before, so she wanted to try it.
Who knew that Yan Chen would stop him so quickly?
He thought to himself that this kid was so vengeful.
"Alright, Young Master, drink slowly. Call me if there's anything.”Xian Shu nodded his head and said a few words to Yan Lin before turning around to head to the rear courtyard.
Yan Lin picked up his chopsticks and slowly ate the porridge.
It was as if Zhang Chuchen was not in front of him.
"Brat, you're quite calm. You're still in the mood to eat porridge.”Zhang Chuchen looked at Yan Lin in surprise.
"Or else?" Yan Lin smiled and bit a red date.
This kid's temperament was really good.
