Li Shimin heard that Yang Hongli had something to do with Li Chengqian, and thought that Li Chengqian had written the letter to him and made it public. He immediately shouted: "You dare to rebel! You are the one who tells Yang Hongli to see him."

Yang Hongli had actually heard Li Shimin's movement outside, thinking that Li Chengqian wrote a letter to Li Shimin and told Li Shimin that he was furious.

"My minister Yang Hongli, please see Your Majesty." Yang Hongli came in and saluted Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was angry at this time and was also concerned about the etiquette of the ministers he met. He angrily said, "That rebellious son is getting more and more bold." As he said that, he threw down the letter Li Chengqian wrote to him.

Seeing that Li Shimin did not let him flatter or ask anything, Yang Hongli threw down the letter paper, thinking that he had guessed correctly, and without saying anything else, he took out Li Chengqian's memorial and held it in his hand.

The eunuch in the hall hurriedly picked up the letter and passed it to Yang Hongli, and received the memorial and submitted it to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin thought the memorial was the same as the letter, and he threw it aside without looking at it. He opened his eyes wide and said with a cold voice: "This rebellious son is simply lawless. This time I must punish him severely. Don't think that he is the crown prince and has meritorious deeds. As long as I am still alive, no matter who says it in the Tang Dynasty, it doesn't count, one by one..."

Li Shimin became more and more angry as he spoke. He stood up suddenly in Yang Hongli's shocked gaze, walked to the desk and walked back and forth in the hall for a few times, suddenly stopped and pointed to the door of the hall and shouted: "People come to pass on my will and send someone to beat Cheng Qian's 20-pin. I want to see who is still talking to me?"

Li Shimin became more and more angry the more he thought about it. If Li Chengqian only wrote him a letter to explain his point of view to him privately, even if he was disrespectful, he would be embarrassed to mention it to outsiders. He would be humiliated to find an opportunity to deal with Li Chengqian and then pass.

However, if the ministers know about this, they will not say that they will use this to oppose his expedition to Goguryeo, which is suspected of winning people's hearts and attacking his prestige.

Li Shimin really wants to beat Li Chengqian hard now. Of course, there is another purpose to kill the chicken and respect the monkey. Because Li Shimin has always advocated opening up the road to speak out, it is difficult to directly attack ministers who advise, but Li Chengqian can beat him at will.

Using the crown prince to establish his authority is also a sign to the ministers of his firm attitude towards Goguryeo. Ministers who want to give advice should consider it.

"Your Majesty must not be done! This time, the Crown Prince led his troops to destroy Xue Yantu Khan's tent is a great contribution to the country and the family. It is originally a matter of duty to submit memorials and suggestions to govern the local area. Although there may be any inappropriate state affairs that the Crown Prince discusses less than the experience, how can you punish him so severely if you teach him with kind words?"

Yang Hongli hurriedly advised him, no matter what he thought, he would have to advise him, otherwise even if Li Chengqian didn't speak, the princelings would not let him go.

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this, turned his head to look at Yang Hongli and said in a slow tone: "Yang Aiqing also thinks what the prince said is inappropriate?"

Yang Hongli hurriedly said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince wanted to follow Qin Shihuang to build the Great Wall north of the river and build a straight road, and forced the barbarians to change their patrons..."

"Um?"

Li Shimin was shocked when he heard this. He walked to the small table in two or three steps and picked up Li Chengqian's memorial and began to read it carefully.

Seeing this, Yang Hongli hurriedly lowered his head and looked at the letter Li Shimin passed it to them. When Yang Hongli saw the contents of the letter, he immediately regretted coming to see Li Shimin at this time.

Sure enough, when Yang Hongli raised his head and wanted to explain what, he saw Li Shimin staring at him with a ignorant look.

"Yang Hongli, how dare you demolish yourself and read the private message the prince wrote to me?" Li Shimin said coldly.

"Your Majesty, I, I don't know." Yang Hongli was also frightened. The crime was a big deal or small, everything depends on Li Shimin's mood.

"Hmph! Why don't you report it directly if you have something?" Li Shimin felt like he was a "dream". He was already annoying enough to be taught a lesson by his son, but he still let others cicadas.

Yang Hongli looked at Li Shimin's expression and knew that the matter was not explained clearly. Although he felt that he was wronged, he could only change the topic: "Weichen just received the memorial from His Highness the Crown Prince. He felt that His Highness the Crown Prince was afraid of other actions, so he hurriedly asked Your Excellency to give up the decree to prevent His Highness from acting rashly and disrupting the alliance that the Tang Dynasty was discussing with the Uighur tribes and other tribes."

Li Shimin moved his heart and sat down calmly. He looked at Yang Hongli, who was still standing in the middle, pointed at the seat beside him and ordered him to sit down. Then he said in anger: "It's not wrong to Chengqian manage Hetao. Since he can fight, let him manage it."

"Your Majesty, rebuilding the Qin Great Wall and the straight road requires a lot of people and material resources. Forced barbarians to change their uniforms and easily cause them to rebound. I am afraid that they will cause endless disasters!" Yang Hongli said bitterly.

"The emperor will not accept the orders of the outside king, let alone Chengqian is the crown prince. If he really wants to do anything, do you think my order will be useful at this time?" Li Shimin said calmly. At this time, he had already thought about how to use this matter to achieve his purpose of expedition to Goguryeo.

"Your Majesty..." Yang Hongli said with embarrassment on his face.

Seeing this, Li Shimin showed a sarcastic smile on his lips, and he took out Yuchi Gong's memorial from the table and signaled the eunuch to hand it to Yang Hongli.

When Yang Hongli saw another memorial, he had to open it and read it. When he saw Yuchi Gong writing that Li Chengqian had all the 20,000 to 30,000 Xue Yantuo surrendered soldiers into the Bingcheng and frozen to death, he felt frightened.

After seeing that Li Chengqian was preparing to convene the Turks, Dangxiang Qiang, and the leaders of the nine surnames of Zhaowu in the Hetao region to go to Kongduigou to celebrate his attack on the tent of Xue Yantuo Khan, he knew that Li Chengqian would make a big move.

He hurriedly closed the memorial of the captain Chi Gong and advised Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, the crown prince, summoned the leaders of various tribes to the Kongduihe camp, which was clearly to threaten the barbarians of various tribes."

"snort"

Li Shimin just snorted disdainfully when he heard this.

Yang Hongli thought that he was not talking nonsense, so he hurriedly continued: "I am afraid that the crown prince will threaten the leaders of various tribes. Any requests made may be counterproductive. I also asked Your Majesty to issue an order to the crown prince as soon as possible, and ask Your Majesty to not act lightly."

When Li Shimin looked at Yang Hongli, he saw that he was very anxious, he asked lightly: "What's wrong with Chengqian managing this place?"

Yang Hongli said seriously when he heard this: "Your Majesty, this is a piece of Mao land, and it is all home to barbarians. It is really a waste of people's efforts to govern as His Highness said, and there is no benefit to the court..."

What Yang Hongli said was similar to what Li Shimin thought. At this time, the population of Guandong in the Tang Dynasty was far lower than that of the former Sui Dynasty. How could it take so much effort to manage the Hetao area?

However, Li Shimin didn't want Yang Hongli to do what he wanted at this time. He knew that the ministers would definitely object, but now Li Chengqian is leading troops outside of him and has no choice but to deal with him.

Li Chengqian's actions are very likely to cause a greater war in the near future, which is something that court officials would never want to see. If he wants to issue an order to transfer Li Chengqian back, he can only support him in the east expedition to Goguryeo.

After planning these things, Li Shimin refused to comment on Yang Hongli's statement: "Since that's the case, please summon all the ministers to discuss it."

When Yang Hongli heard this, he looked at Li Shimin with a blank expression, thinking to himself whether His Majesty wants to support His Royal Highness?

After a while, I realized that other ministers would definitely oppose Li Chengqian, so I hurriedly said, "Abide by the order!" Then I went out to summon the ministers who were walking.
