Datang: At the beginning, Li Er eavesdropped on his heart

Chapter 493
"General Cheng, are you saying that the prince wants to train his troops?" When Li Shimin heard this, he immediately understood and asked with a surprised look on his face.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince indeed has plans in this regard. His Highness asked His Majesty to lend him a soldier in the future."

Cheng Yaojin replied respectfully, although he was also very puzzled, but his expression did not change.

"Is the prince going to prepare another surprise for me?" Li Shimin sat up straight and joked.

"I don't know about this general. It's just that the prince asked the general to ask your majesty to lend him troops. He didn't reveal the specific actions to the general."

Cheng Yaojin shook his head, expressing that he didn't know either.

Hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, Li Shimin was silent for a moment, and then said:

"General Cheng, since the crown prince wants to borrow troops, let's lend them to him first, but I still want to know what the crown prince wants to do first."

Cheng Yaojin's eyes lit up immediately after hearing the emperor's words, and then he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty is wise, and I obey the order."

"Okay, you go back and tell the prince that I agree, let him go to the martial arts field to rectify the soldiers and horses tomorrow, you should step down first."

Li Shimin waved Cheng Yaojin to leave.

"Yes! The last general will leave!" Cheng Yaojin saluted and left the Imperial Study Room.

After Cheng Yaojin left the imperial study, Li Shimin looked out of the window, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and murmured:

"The prince is really getting more and more interesting, hehe, that's fine, I hope the prince can often play like this, so as not to be idle all day long."

Li Yin:? ? ? ?

After Cheng Yaojin left, Li Shimin immediately ordered someone to convene all the ministers to discuss the matter.

After the ministers came to the court, they were immediately arranged to sit in their own seats. This time, there were 58 people in the court, and each of them had only one person, and the rest all sat down in their own seats.

Not long after the ministers sat down, Li Shimin casually glanced at the hall, his eyebrows knitted together, and suddenly asked: "Why didn't the prince come to court?"

Wei Zheng said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness left the city early in the morning and is not in Chang'an City at this time."

"Then do you know why he suddenly borrowed troops from me?" Li Shimin said dissatisfied.

"Well, I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince wants to train a team of tigers and wolves for my Great Tang."

Wei Zheng said without thinking.

"Your Majesty, I thought the prince was plotting against you!" Suddenly a minister said.

"Nonsense, His Royal Highness is gentle and humble, and he is still young, how could he rebel!"

Upon hearing this, Changsun Wuji stood up and retorted immediately.

"What does His Royal Highness want soldiers and horses to do? This is fine, and there is no war."

"Hehe, don't forget, when His Royal Highness crusaded against the Japanese country, you were all cowards. Now that His Royal Highness wants soldiers and horses, you are just farting here, what the hell!"

"You... Sure enough, a reckless man is a reckless man who only speaks obscenities!"

"If you have the ability, you go to war, a weak scholar who only knows how to hold a pen."

Fierce quarrels sounded above the court hall, and the court had already been divided into two factions, arguing endlessly.

"All loves, be quiet!" Li Shimin's head hurt from the noise, and he spoke to stop the farce, and the court suddenly became silent.

"King Wu, tell me what you think."

Li Shimin glanced at Li Ke who was standing in the first place, and everyone's eyes also focused on the King Wu.

"Reporting to my father, in my opinion, His Highness the Crown Prince is an upright man and has no reason to rebel. He may have other plans."

"After all, the Tang Dynasty is peaceful and peaceful, and the prince is still young. It is impossible for the prince to think of murdering his father."

Li Ke lowered his head and rolled his eyes. After some explanations, Li Shimin was convinced. He also guessed casually, how could he know what Li Yin was thinking.

After all, the current Datang is still a scene of peace.

"Well, what do you think, King Wu?" Li Shimin asked again.

"Reporting to Father, since His Royal Highness wants to train soldiers for the Tang Dynasty, and Father has already agreed to him, then I think you can send troops to help the Prince. I wonder what you mean, Father?"

Li Ke asked respectfully.

"How about you, Mr. Wei, what do you think?" Li Shimin turned his gaze to Wei Zheng again.

Wei Zheng stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty Qizuo, I thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would never rebel. Instead, he believed that troops should be sent to protect the safety of His Highness the Crown Prince, in case something happens to him."

"What Master Wei said is absolutely true."

All the ministers nodded after hearing this. This arrangement is indeed reasonable.

"Well, since His Highness the Crown Prince wants to train tiger and wolf warriors for the Tang Dynasty, then the Great Tang Dynasty will send some soldiers and horses to His Highness the Crown Prince, so that His Highness the Crown Prince can train the soldiers and horses as soon as possible."

"In this way, His Highness the Crown Prince can be regarded as making a contribution to our Great Tang."

Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction and continued:
"As for where to dispatch the soldiers and horses, then just send him a soldier and horse with no combat effectiveness. Which adult is willing to send a soldier and horse to His Royal Highness for training?"

After speaking, Li Shimin glanced at the people present.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen has a troop called Panmen Battalion. It is a recently reorganized team. It contains some veterans who have been on the battlefield but have no obvious military exploits. Most of them are veterans, and there is a shortage of them now. As a sergeant major, why not leave this team to His Royal Highness?"

At this time, a minister surnamed Xie stood up and said.

"Since this is the case, I will leave the matter of Xie Aiqing to you. When the time comes, you will be responsible for handing over this army to the hands of His Highness the Crown Prince."

Li Shimin nodded.

"Yes! My minister obeys the order." Master Xie clasped his fists and saluted, with a smile on his face.

"In addition, His Royal Highness needs a large amount of food and grass. We can send a large amount of food and grass from various state capitals to the border for His Royal Highness to train tiger and wolf divisions."

Another minister also stood up and suggested.

"I have thought about this a long time ago. I don't know who is willing to be the official responsible for transporting grain and grass this time." Li Shimin nodded and said.

"Your Majesty Qizuo, leave this matter to my son, and I promise to complete the mission!" Li Ke was the first to stand up and ask for orders.

"Well, Li Ke will be in charge." Li Shimin nodded.

"My dear, please retire." Li Ke bowed and then retreated.

"Anyone else have anything to add?" Li Shimin looked at the others and said.

"Report to Your Majesty, no more."

"My Emperor Shengming."

As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, all the officials shouted in unison.

"Retreat!" Li Shimin waved his hand, signaling to retreat.
