Although there was a lot of noise in arresting people on New Year's Eve, everyone was mentally prepared, so Li Shimin and civil and military officials accepted this fact calmly.

The next day was the first day of the Chinese New Year, which was one of the most solemn political activities in the year in the Tang Dynasty. Originally, Li Shimin did not intend to let Li Chengqian participate, and wanted him to recover from his injuries.

However, in order to formally participate in politics, Li Chengqian had already prepared a declaration of his politics in the Tang Dynasty, so how could he not participate?

After Li Chengqian's strong request, Li Shimin agreed to participate in the New Year's Day of the Guimao year.

After the incident in the second half of December, the civil and military officials in the court had no doubt about the status of Prince Li Chengqian.

During the Great Dynasty on the New Year, as soon as Li Chengqian's carriage appeared outside the Tai Chi Palace, thousands of civil and military ministers in front of the Tai Chi Palace all greeted him solemnly, showing a kingly atmosphere.

"See Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

When this scene was happening, Li Chengqian felt a sense of pride. He endured a slight pain in his chest and said loudly: "Everyone is calm!"

"The prince ordered all the ministers to be calm!" The old ghost standing next to the carriage immediately pulled his throat and repeated it.

"Thank you, Prince!"

Li Chengqian changed his chariot in front of Tai Chi Gate, and the gate of Tai Chi Palace was opened.

Li Chengqian took the chariot first, with all the royal families, civil and military ministers, court envoys sent by the governors from various places, and envoys from the surrounding vassal states followed behind.

The New Year's Day celebration was to celebrate the New Year to the emperor, which was carried out in three parts. The first part was that the crown prince led the royal family to greet Li Shimin. The second part was that the princes and ministers and local officials. The envoys sent to the court, also called the Chaoji envoys, to wish Li Shimin a New Year. The third part was that the leaders of various tribes and envoys from the vassal states wished Li Shimin a New Year. Today, Li Shimin was wearing a crown and a throne in Taiji Hall, wearing a robes and a crown princes, and was carrying his crutches. He led the princes and royal family members to pay homage to Li Shimin a step by step but solemnly.

Many ministers in the hall felt very sad when they saw this scene. The crown prince has not been favored by the emperor and ministers since he was injured on his feet. Last year, the news of destruction and establishment was once heard.

However, as the Eastern Palace quelled the rebellion of the commoner Li Tai, the position of Prince Li Chengqian became as stable as Mount Tai. It seems that the Tang Dynasty really needs a disabled emperor...

Li Chengqian and the kings finished their worship ceremony according to the ceremony, stood in the hall and waited for Li Shimin to speak.

"The prince and the ministers are in harmony and announce the order!"

When the ministers heard this, they were stunned. It was not the time to announce the imperial edict. The New Year's Day dynasty was filled with various ceremonies, and they were usually announced and given a banquet only after the court was finished. What imperial edict was announced at this time?

Without letting Li Chengqian and the ministers think too much, the eunuch Huang Qingming came out and announced the edict loudly: "The crown prince is in the shaking place, and the etiquette is overwhelming, but the calligraphy style is not written by Yizhi..."

A decree was read by Huang Qingming, the eunuch who announced the edict, and all the ministers understood that this was Li Shimin, in order to praise Li Chengqian, and asked him to approve his ministers in the future and directly criticize the orders after the letter.

It turned out that only the documents of the East Palace were ordered by the Zhan Shifu. In the future, with the edict of Li Shimin, Li Chengqian would write whatever he wrote or commented on the ministers, and all the words "orders" were called "orders".

All ministers who understood the significance of this edict were shocked. The prime ministers of the three provinces did not expect that Li Shimin had such courage to give Li Chengqian such great power. The power to criticize the orders was above the prime minister.

The ministers were shocked and not finished yet, so Huang Qingming took out the second edict.

"The crown prince inherited the Qian, loyalty, filial piety and virtue, and his determination and career are prosperous,..."

The content of the second edict is that Li Chengqian will set up a seat next to the emperor's throne in the Great and Changgongs. In the future, whenever Li Chengqian goes to court, he will sit in the seat next to Li Shimin and follow the government with Li Shimin.

After hearing the two edicts, the civil and military officials had not yet come back to their minds. When they reached out to Li Shimin stretched out his left hand to wave to Li Chengqian, pointed to the throne set up next to him with his right hand and said, "Chengqian will come and accept the congratulations from all officials with his father."

Although Li Shimin was wearing a crown today, there were twelve strings blocking his face, Li Chengqian seemed to see Li Shimin looking at him with kindness.

"I thank my father for his kindness, but my sons dare not overestimate the etiquette and violate the rules!" Li Chengqian refused to resist the desire to sit on him immediately.

When Li Shimin heard this, he said in a gentle tone: "Don't say anything, since I have issued an edict, it is not considered as a violation of etiquette and Yue's system when you sit up."

"My son obeys the order!" Li Chengqian said, and limped onto the throne specially set for him.

Just now, the princes and royal families who followed Li Chengqian, look at me and see if you don’t know what to do?

It was Li Ke who first reacted and said solemnly to Li Chengqian: "See Your Highness, I wish you a long life for thousands of years!"

The other princes and royal families behind had to follow Li Ke to pay homage to Li Chengqian. The ministers who visited the second round, the ministers who visited the court, and the envoys who visited the third round, the leaders and envoys of the tribes of various vassal states and tribes, all followed suit, first visited Li Shimin and then visited Li Chengqian.

Thousands of people went to the temple to visit their fathers in shifts, and even two hundred people had to pay dozens of times at a time, and the various etiquettes were different each time, so the whole morning passed.

Just as Li Shimin and the ministers were tired and hungry, they were about to announce the order to give the banquet, Li Chengqian suddenly stood up and saluted Li Shimin first, and whispered:

"Father, my sons also want to give some gifts to the ministers and ministers at this time, and there is also an order to read them together."

Li Shimin thought it was a case of Li Tai's rebellion, and frowned and said, "Cheng Qian's gift can be given after a banquet. The order will be ordered to wait three days later and the seal will be announced." It means that I will have a peaceful life.

Li Chengqian thought it was Li Shimin who was tired or unwilling to change the etiquette system, so he explained: "The gift prepared by his father and son is the "Four Books Collection", and the order is also about the right to reward and read out at this time."

"Oh!" When he heard that it was a letter and an order about Xingnong, Li Shimin nodded: "Then read it!"

Li Chengqian first bowed to Li Shimin and said, "Abide by the order!" Then he turned to the old ghost and said, "Old ghost declare the order!"

The old ghost had prepared a long time ago. Hearing this, he hurried forward and took two steps and said loudly: "The prince ordered him to say: "The mastery is diligent, and he is wasteful; his actions are accomplished by thinking, and he is destroyed by following. All officials in the world bear the emperor's orders and comfort the people. Only by working diligently to accomplish the work can the emperor be eliminated and the emperor's favor and the people's offerings.

However, all officials may have short wisdom and weak power, or have unclear nature and spirit, and are even greedy for wealth and power, which will lead to the government being in poverty and the people being in poverty.

The lonely king was grateful that Sun Quan still had the virtue of persuading learning, and lamented that all officials were harmful to the public and the public were particularly annotated by the "Four Books Collection" and printed 5,000 pieces to give them to the officials. I hope that you can study hard every day in the future to increase your skills in reporting to the country and the people."

After Bai Zhou finished reading this article, the Tai Chi Hall was in an uproar. Li Chengqian not only openly criticized all officials for being incompetent, but also gave them books to study hard every day. How could those old masters with a lot of beards bear it?

They have always scolded the emperor and the crown prince!

Li Shimin shook his head and smiled bitterly when he saw this situation, thinking that Cheng Qian was too impatient and would teach him well in the future.
