Chapter 280 The jade pendant crisis
Yuan Yuan ate some pastries in Liangyi Palace, and after giving instructions about the country, he was going to Xianchi Palace to see the Supreme Emperor Aweng.
Before leaving, she ran to the back garden of Liangyi Palace and took a walk.
When they arrived at Xianchi Palace, Li Yuan was taking a nap in the back hall.
Zhao Wang Li Yuanjing was waiting in front of the palace, apparently waiting for the Supreme Emperor to wake up.
Yuan Yuan ran over from the corridor with a small bundle in her arms. When she saw Li Yuanjing, she waved to him mysteriously.
One big and one small squatted in front of the hall to unpack their bags.
The little kid smiled until he narrowed his eyes and said as if he was taking credit: "This is the gift I want to give to the Supreme Emperor Aweng!"
The wooden box in the bag was opened, and inside was a sapphire double crane pendant.
The jade pendant has a delicate texture and exudes a warm brilliance. The crane on it is lifelike and the lines are smooth, which shows the exquisite craftsmanship.
King Zhao naturally knew that the two majesties in the palace often hid treasures everywhere for the little boy to find and play with.
It's just that this jade pendant is the King of Qin's pendant given to him by the Supreme Emperor when His Majesty was still King of Qin.
The imperial brother even showed this, he must be very fond of this child.
This child has grown up and knows how to give treasures to repay the love of his elders.
But the current situation is...the things that the Supreme Emperor himself sent are coming back to his hands again?
Li Yuanjing's face remained calm, and he was looking forward to his father Li Yuan's reaction when he saw the jade pendant.
He patted the little kid's head in cooperation and said encouragingly: "Very good, the Emperor will definitely like it."
***
A quarter of an hour later, Li Yuan held a familiar jade pendant in his hand and fell into deep thought.
His emperor's son really loves this kid, and this jade pendant is very real to him.
But should he accept this gift?
Come on, he's an old father, and it always feels weird to secretly hide his son's things.
If you don't accept it, you've failed the little guy again. Besides, if he refuses to accept it, will the kid stop giving it to him in the future?
He looked at the little boy running around happily in the garden not far away, and then at the six-year-old King Zhao, who had a normal expression and was playing "chase me" with the little boy. The old man stroked his beard.
Yuan Yuan sweated all over her forehead and returned to the inner hall with a smile. Li Yuan wiped her sweat and gave her water with a loving look on her face.
Then he said casually: "You and Liu Lang had a good time, how about you give him the jade pendant?"
"Aweng, the low-sugar Bobo milk tea you asked your sister to send you this morning is still warm and you haven't finished it yet."
Yuan Yuan wrinkled her chubby face and thought for a while, then nodded.
"Yeah, yeah, uncle Rokuro is fine!"
She took the jade pendant and put it into Li Yuanjing's hand. She took out a Qiuqiu candy from the small cloth pocket at her waist and handed it to Li Yuan as if to compensate.
"Then I will give the two cents to the Supreme Emperor Aweng!!!"
Li Yuan happily agreed.
Li Yuanjing looked at the cunning old man with difficulty, thinking that it was shameful for him to hold the emperor's brother's jade pendant. What if the admonishers found out and said that he coveted your majesty's things and wanted to usurp the throne?
After Yuan Yuan had eaten, drank, and played in Xianchi Palace, she couldn't open her eyes. Li Yuan ordered someone to take her to a side hall to rest.
After Li Yuanjing finished talking to his old father, he took the hot jade pendant and went to Liangyi Hall.
After thinking it over, it is safest to return the property to its original owner.
***
In Liangyi Hall, Li Shimin held the jade pendant and looked at his sixth brother with raised eyebrows: "You had a good time with that kid."
His uncle has never received a gift from the little kid!
The good uncle looked at the sky sadly forty-five degrees.
King Zhao was speechless: "This is originally the emperor's brother's thing."
Li Shimin glared at him, could this be the same?
He waved his hand and summoned Zhang Ananda: "Hide in the back hall this time."
Zhang Ananda took the wooden box and bowed down.
King Zhao was a little worried: "If Yuanyuan finds it tomorrow, won't he know that I have returned this pendant to the emperor?"
He also didn't want to be the bad uncle who failed his children.
Li Shimin couldn't help laughing: "She only knows how to hunt for treasures, but she doesn't know the meaning of those treasures. If I ask her to search for them next time, she will just think that I really like that style and actually hide several pieces of the same thing." jade pendant."
After settling the matter of the jade pendant, Li Shimin began to talk to King Zhao about the military camp.
"I heard that you have been training at Shenlongwei. Next year, you, Yuchi Erlang, Pei Xiaolang and others will form a young army and learn how to march and fight over long distances."
"The Western Expedition will begin at the beginning of the third year of Zhenguan at the latest. At that time, I will ask you to go with Li Jing."
Li Yuanjing responded solemnly.
Both brothers understood that this young army was left by Li Shimin to the prince.
After all, the generals who founded the Tang Dynasty were old, and Li Shimin was in his prime. The prince would ascend the throne in the future, and young generals would be needed to guard the territory.

At the end of the afternoon, Du Ruhui came out of the Yamen of the Ministry of War.
As soon as I went out, I saw Yuchi Jingde, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Shubao, and the noisy little princess squatting not far away, meeting and talking in a circle.
Du Shangshu was curious and walked over with his hands behind his back.
As I got closer, I heard Yuchi Jingde say in a low voice: "Cows are mostly used in farming and are very precious. But don't we have new four-wheelers, which can partially replace animal power. Now ordinary people can also slaughter cattle with the permission of the government. .”
"But the cows in our village are used to grow grain and are of great use. If you want to eat beef, you can go to other people's houses to find a cow."
The three adults and one child came closer and heard Cheng Yaojin say in a low voice: "I don't know about others, but Du Ruhui, that old man, must have cattle in his village. My eldest son has a good relationship with Du Dalang and often goes to Du's village to play." .”
Qin Shubao decided: "I think this is feasible."
Yuan Yuan clenched her little fists, her eyes shining: "Then let's go find Dua Weng quickly, the roasted beef is so delicious!!!"
Du Ruhui, the old man, lowered his face.
Can these generals not hear his footsteps? ? ? This is pointing to him! ! !
The four brothers over there finished their discussion and stood up.
When the little boy turned around, Du Ruhui showed a loving smile again: "Well, I do raise cattle in the village. You can go over and slaughter the cattle and cook them on your holiday."
Yuan Yuan jumped up and down happily.
It happened that Yuan Erlang also walked out of the Ministry of War. He knew that his little niece was coming to pick him up for duty, so he came out in a hurry.
When he went out, he heard his little niece excitedly say to him: "Second uncle, second uncle, Dua Weng's family has a lot of cows, give them all to us to eat!!!"
Du Ruhui's eyes widened, did he give it as he said? ? ?
Yuchi Jingde and others all laughed.
Yuan Daguan took the confused second uncle, said goodbye to the old men, and skipped back home.
Du Ruhui looked at the three generals expressionlessly.
Yuchi Jingde put his arm around his shoulders and said with a "you really don't know what's good" look on his face: "Then the three of us can't find a cow? It's not just to let you show off."
Cheng Yaojin echoed: "If you give that kid a meal of meat, will His Majesty remember you? Your Majesty will have to reward you."
Qin Shubao nodded: "You, Du Shi, will have a bright future in the future."
Du Ruhui's face was full of words.
"The future of my Du family depends entirely on that cow???"
