    In the Daming Palace in Chang'an, Li Shimin cried bitterly for a long time after learning that Li Yuan had passed away. After experiencing Li Chengqian's rebellion, Li You's rebellion, and expelling Li Tai from Chang'an, Li Shimin was able to understand Li Yuan's face more and more.  Regarding his mood when he and Li Jiancheng were fighting, he felt even more guilty towards Li Yuan.  "Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince's motorcade has entered the city." A eunuch said to Li Shimin, who was wearing plain white mourning clothes.  "Well, I understand." Li Shimin's voice was low.  Hearing this, the eunuch turned around and was about to leave. At this time, Li Shimin's words came again, "Let's hold a national funeral!" "Yes." Soon after the eunuch left, death knells rang out in the Daming Palace, and bursts of mourning resounded throughout the Daming Palace.  The first thing Li Min did when he arrived in Chang'an was to transfer Li Yuan's body to the official responsible for the funeral of the Ministry of Rites. Then he and many princes and princesses also put on plain white clothes sent by the Ministry of Rites. Naturally, there was a special ceremony for Li Yuan's funeral.  The personnel is responsible, and he does not need to step in and ask these things.  The group changed clothes and then went to the Daming Palace. Compared with the previous Taiji Palace, the Daming Palace was obviously more luxurious than the Taiji Palace. The equipment inside could basically reach the level of the Yizhou Prince's Palace. But at this time  Everywhere in the Daming Palace was plain white, and even the maids and eunuchs put on mourning clothes.  "Father, the prince and the princesses are all here." Li Min saw Li Shimin and Li Yuan's other heirs in the main hall of the Daming Palace where the funeral was held. They were sobbing softly towards Li Yuan who was lying in the coffin.  Hearing Li Min's voice, Li Shimin wiped his eyes. Under the instructions of the presiding officer, Li Shimin led the royal family members to carry out the funeral process step by step according to the orders of the etiquette officials. The various complicated etiquette systems made the funeral last for a full month.  During this period, the whole of Chang'an was shrouded in this depressing atmosphere. No entertainment or marriage was allowed until Li Yuan's funeral was over.  Li Min has been staying in Chang'an for more than a month. After all, he is the prince and cannot break the rules. Speaking of which, Li Min is also a little sad, but this sadness comes from the friendship he has gotten along with Li Yuan over the years. It is not as sad as Li Shimin's.  The real pain of his father, after all, Li Yuan was not his real relative, so during the whole process, he was just like sending away an old friend, unlike Li Shimin who lost weight, and Li Yuan's other heirs did not care much about Li Yuan.  A deep impression, after all, they were still very young when Li Yuan was imprisoned by Li Shimin.  "Father, you have to take care of yourself." Li Min came to Daming Palace to say farewell to Li Shimin that day. When he saw Li Shimin's emaciated appearance, Li Min said.  Li Shimin was a little distracted. He did not answer Li Min's question, but said something irrelevant, "Liu Lang, is there really no magic in this world?" Hearing this, Li Min was stunned. Li Shimin used to be obsessed with it.  After taking the elixir, he never looked for the art of immortality after being exposed by Li Min as the fake Taoist priest seven years ago. Now that he mentioned it, Li Shimin must have been affected by Li Yuan's death and developed a fear of death. When a person  When you have endless wealth and rights and can enjoy everything in the world, you must be afraid of death. "Why did your father suddenly ask about this again?" "It's nothing." Li Shimin seemed to have come back to his senses and said again: "Since Yizhou  We are busy with government affairs, so just go back." Li Min wanted to ask more, but seeing Li Shimin looking distracted, he opened his mouth and said nothing, turned around and left the hall.  Then he went to say goodbye to Queen Changsun and Concubine Yang. At Concubine Yang's place, Li Min told Concubine Yang about Li Shimin's strange behavior. Relatively speaking, Concubine Yang must have known something about the inside story, and just as Li Min guessed,  Concubine Yang sighed after hearing this and said: "Your father has been searching for Taoist masters these days. I think your father must have become interested in the art of immortality again. After all, your grandfather's death made him understand that the emperor  Just like ordinary people, they cannot transcend death. " "This elixir is not good for the body. You and the queen must persuade your father." Concubine Yang's words finally confirmed his suspicion.  With a low sigh, Concubine Yang shook her head, "Who can persuade your father to come back to your decision? This time your father even plans to build a Taoist temple in the back mountain to practice Taoist techniques." "This time.  It's simply ridiculous. Could it be that my father wants to imitate Emperor Jiajing?" Li Min blurted out.  "What Emperor Jiajing?" Concubine Yang looked at Li Min doubtfully and said.  Li Min suddenly realized that he had let something slip. Emperor Jiajing was a prince of the Ming Dynasty who loved Taoism. He had not been in court for twenty years and only asked for immortality. He did not want Li Shimin to become like this, "It's nothing, son."  "You said the wrong thing." Concubine Yang withdrew her confused gaze and said, "Actually, there is another reason why your father is like this. The letter your imperial grandfather left for your father suggested that you should intervene in the government affairs as soon as possible."Now you only care about your Yizhou. Is the land of Datang just a piece of Yizhou?  I think what your grandfather said makes sense. You are now the prince and can no longer be so biased. Because of this, your father is ready to hand over the management of state affairs to you, so that he can have time to continue his quest for immortality.  " Li Min was a little unbelievable, "But my father didn't tell me about this.  " "You will know soon. After all, he still has to deal with the ministers.  "Concubine Yang seemed to be saying something that was natural. After coming out of Concubine Yang's palace, Li Min still couldn't digest this sudden change. Li Shimin planned to retreat behind the scenes and let him take charge of state affairs. Although Li Shimin had already had this intention  , but it came too suddenly. Li Min thought that maybe Li Yuan's death really stimulated Li Shimin. But in this way, Li Shimin could be his free emperor, eat, drink, have fun, and seek immortality. That's all.  As soon as this happened, the prince Li Min was about to suffer, and the entire Tang Dynasty was pinned on him. He returned to Yizhou with a feeling of trepidation. Within ten days, it was just as Concubine Yang said, Li Shimin.  An imperial edict came to Yizhou, asking the prince Li Min to supervise the country and prime minister of state affairs. "Congratulations to your highness, the chief minister of state affairs!  "As soon as this imperial edict arrived, the happiest people were the officials of Yizhou. They all flocked to the Prince's Mansion as if they were celebrating a festival. Li Shimin's imperial edict was nothing short of pushing Li Min to the pinnacle of power.  , and the status of these old subordinates will naturally rise. "Your Highness, it's time for you to pack up and go to Chang'an.  "Shangguanyi smiled like an old fox. They still had some feelings for Chang'an in their hearts. Hearing this, Li Min rubbed his head in pain. No matter how prosperous Yizhou is, it is not the capital after all. Since he, the prince, is in charge of the country, how can he  It¡¯s not a problem to stay in this place. After the imperial edict arrived, Li Shimin also talked to Li Min. He planned to hand over the former Tai Chi Palace to Li Min as the Prince¡¯s East Palace. ¡°Well, Shangguan Yi, please make a list.  Whoever stays will go to Chang'an. On this trip, we will start comprehensive reforms of Datang.  "Li Min said in a deep voice. Now that Somalia's oil has begun to be sold, high welfare policies can be implemented soon. At this time, it will be too late if we don't carry out the government reform of the entire Datang Dynasty. "Yes.  "Shangguanyi said happily. After waiting for so many years, he could finally go back with pride. After discussing various matters about going to Chang'an with the officials, Shangguanyi left with all the officials. After the officials left, Cui Yingying  Walking into the Council Hall with Su Mor'er, Su Mor'er said: "Your Highness, don't you need us to go there?  " "You should stay in Yizhou for the time being. After going to Chang'an, I will let Luo Anguo's engineering team carry out construction in Chang'an. You can come back after all the facilities there are completed.  "Li Min said thoughtfully, as Concubine Yang said, he can't just make Yizhou rich, it's time to let other places enjoy the treatment of Yizhou. After he goes to Chang'an, he will prepare to build Chang'an and at the same time let other places enjoy the treatment of Yizhou.  Private capital has entered Chang'an. For Li Min, Chang'an will undergo major construction sooner or later. After all, sooner or later he will become the king of the Tang Dynasty. It is not appropriate to designate Yizhou as the capital because Yizhou is too remote. At this time, the Tang Dynasty  The population is still mainly concentrated in the north.
