In the afternoon.
In the Imperial Study.
Empress Zhangsun frowned and her cheeks were slightly red.
"So, this Zhang Feng is really an extraordinary person?"
"Yes!"
Li Shimin couldn't help but let out a deep sigh of relief.
This meal lasted for at least two hours. In these two hours, Li Shimin told the story of how he met Zhang Feng and how he became Old Li. He told them everything in detail.
At this time, on the table in the Imperial Study, a jar of wine had been emptied, and two large plates of fried cicada pupae had been swept clean.
Li Shimin was still talking about Zhang Feng's deeds.
"Guanyin maid, you don't know! Brother Zhang Feng is such a genius! If it weren't for him, I wouldn't know how to deal with the drought in Longyou Road and what happened after the drought! "
Hearing Li Shimin say so.
Empress Zhangsun was stunned.
This was the first time she had heard her second brother continuously praise someone. Moreover, it had been continuously for two hours without repeating a single sentence!
Empress Zhangsun covered her mouth and chuckled, "Second brother, could it be that your tone and manner of speaking seem to have been learned from that Zhang Feng?"
Li Shimin was stunned. "Guanyin maid, why do you say this?"
"I can feel that ever since Xieli came to the Wei River, your personality has changed, and you're a bit dejected. However, half a year ago, your dejection seemed to have slowly disappeared. Could it be that you didn't notice?"
Li Shimin was shocked.
Did he?
Empress Zhangsun got up and pressed Li Shimin on the chair. She massaged his shoulders and said, "Second brother, do you know? After the Wei River, all of the Great Tang was in turmoil, but in the last half a year, your personality has suddenly changed. You've become more cheerful, and you've become very cocky! "
"Guanyin maid, what are you saying … Am I that kind of person?"
Li Shimin touched Zhangsun's hand and said, but he couldn't help but feel a little smug in his heart.
Empress Zhangsun smiled: "Do you know? It is also because of your changes in the past six months that the originally unstable Tang Dynasty has gradually stabilized. I used to think that it was because I was inspired by Heaven by praying to Buddha, but now I understand that all of this is really because of Heaven's inspiration! "
"He bestowed Brother Zhang Feng from the Tang Dynasty!"
"That's why he solved the crisis in Longyou Circuit and predicted the situation in Tubo and other countries, as well as what the Tang Dynasty can deal with now. Second Brother, haven't you realized that this man is really the lucky general of the Tang Dynasty?"
Li Shimin nodded and said emotionally, "The one who knows me best is Guanyin Maid! I think so too, but I invited him time and time again, but this brat actually thinks that the official position of the person I know is too low, and he is not willing to be a small official! And he always refuses on the grounds that the time is not right! "
Speaking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help but laugh again.
"Then why don't you take this opportunity to directly tell him your identity?"
"It's useless!"
Li Shimin shook his head.
If it was possible, why did he have to pretend to be Lao Li in the past six months?
The palace gate was as deep as the sea.
Although the Tang Dynasty had a smooth journey, no one knew that the struggle between the civil and military officials had always been there!
Li Shimin also wanted to invite him to the palace at this time, but if he didn't do it willingly, wouldn't he fall behind and be criticized by all the civil and military officials in the court?
There was another reason.
This was the most important one.
Li Shimin didn't want to take the initiative to break the current situation!
He lacked friends!
Zhang Feng really regarded him as a friend.
He cherished it very much. If he had a showdown, it would be equivalent to turning from a friend to a minister. Therefore, Li Shimin had many opportunities to block this matter!
He was afraid!
"Second Brother, such a virtuous talent, and he is so clear and sharp about the structure of the Tang Dynasty, such a young man, why don't …"
Hearing Zhangsun's words, Li Shimin was instantly overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Guanyin Maid, do you have any good ideas? Quickly, tell me! "
As he spoke, Li Shimin hurriedly got up and hugged Zhangsun's slender waist.
Empress Zhangsun blushed and snorted, "Second Brother, why don't you let Qian 'er follow that young shopkeeper?"
"This …"
Li Shimin wanted to refuse, but suddenly, his eyes flashed with excitement. He hugged Empress Zhangsun tightly and spun her around twice. He laughed and said, "Hahaha, you're really my good Guanyin Maid!"
"This is a wonderful idea!"
"Tomorrow, I'll order Qian 'er to bring the gift to the small tavern!"
"Brother Zhang Feng has done so many things for me. Although this is a great achievement, it can't stop people from gossiping. However, if he becomes the Crown Prince's teacher, then it's a different story!"
Empress Zhangsun struggled and broke free from Li Shimin's embrace. She said, "Not only that, didn't you say that the young shopkeeper is only about 20 years old? At this age, he's similar to Qian 'er and the others. I think if Qing Que' er, Kuan 'er, and Zhi' er go together, what do you think? "
"This …"
"I see!"
"Isn't this a little inappropriate?"
Li Shimin was a little hesitant.
Empress Zhangsun rolled her eyes at Li Shimin.
"Why do you think that Little Brother Zhang Feng is cooped up in the tavern all day long? He lacks playmates! If Chengqian goes alone, not only will he not be able to stop people from gossiping, he will also be criticized by His Majesty for making the Crown Prince take the shopkeeper as his teacher. Do you think this is appropriate? "
"However, if they go together and say that they're playmates, then the officials will have nothing to say!"
"That's right!"
"Hahaha!"
Li Shimin stared at Empress Zhangsun with a red face. He slowly leaned forward and said, "The one who knows me is Guanyin Maid!"
