Li Shanchang remained silent. He had little talent to know that he had been looking forward to being able to do great things since he was a child. God treated him well. Since more than ten years ago, he approached Zhu Yuanzhang's tent in white clothes, he has been dedicated to assisting Zhu Yuanzhang for his sadness, working hard and stabilizing the rear. He believed that this man who was determined to imitate the Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, would definitely make his achievements in this chaos. He would also rise and find his own great achievements. His vision is not bad. This man who was still arrogant at the time is now fighting south and north, destroying Chen Youliang, killing Zhang Shicheng, attacking Fang Guozhen, and accepting Chen Youding. The Northern Expedition Army has forced Dadu to establish a dignified Ming Dynasty.

Dynasty, which he had not expected. Now he is in a high position and is famous in history, but all this seems to be limited. Who said that behind this glory is not a danger? If he had not carried the mission of the family, learned from Fan Li and Zhang Liang, and had been able to live a happy life for two years, it would be great. But this is impossible. Today, he is in a high position, and some people will not let him go. Once he leaves, will he, his son, his younger brother, and his Li family be subject to persecution from others? He doesn't know this, and he dare not think about it. He just wants to have his own day and keep them safe. Even today, the emperor has become disgusted with him, and he cannot leave immediately!

Li Shanchang thought about it secretly, but hesitated. He didn't hear Tao Kai's philosophical words just now. Even if he heard them, he didn't care. He had been with Zhu Yuanzhang for more than ten years, and he knew better than anyone else that Zhu Yuanzhang could not leave him at the moment.

"Haha, thank you Lord Tao for reminding me, but Your Majesty is so arrogant to the empress. How can I, Li Shanchang, serve Your Majesty well? You should also know that although there are many capable people in the court, few people can be familiar with the rear and stabilize the rear. Now the Tartars have strength. Wang Baobao's hundreds of thousands of troops are still in the north. Our army has not yet attacked Dadu. I am originally responsible for the heavy responsibility of stabilizing the rear. If you rashly imitate Fan Li of Yue and Zhang Liang of Han, you should know the consequences. Now that I am invisible, it will only make Your Majesty's grand achievements in driving out the Tartars' photovoltaic Han people's territory and give up halfway. I believe I don't want to see such a result, right?"

Tao Kai smiled indifferently and said to himself: "It seems that Li Shanchang wanted to attack the north to strengthen the rear and be loyal to the power position. He did not expect that fame and fortune were a double-edged sword, which could not only bring people limited glory and glory, but also to miserable places where people's body and heads were different. The cunning rabbit died, the lack of dogs cooked, the birds were gone, the good bows were hidden, the literary species, Bai Qi, Han Xin, there were few examples like this? Dominating the power position and not giving it will only arouse the emperor's suspicion and disgust. That was a murderous sword hanging above his head, and I don't know when? Li Shanchang, Li Shanchang, I didn't expect that you would never see through this truth for a lifetime? It's really sad?"

Tao Kai was born in the emperor's order, and he also had an appreciation for Li Shanchang. He really didn't want to see him gradually being disgusted by the emperor. He was suspicious and sang for a moment, staring at Li Shanchang and said, "It's not reasonable for the Lord's concerns. However, now my Northern Expedition Army has captured Shandong and Henan, and now has captured Tongguan and entered Dadu. With Xu Da and Chang Yuchun's ability to fight, and with Lord Xiao Yunxiao's stable rear and transporting food and grass, the Tartars will not be long before they will be expelled from the Central Plains. By then, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty will definitely be more important than the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Qin Emperor Han Wu, Tang Zong Song Zu, and the current emperor's character, I don't need to say more, and I know it well. Why should I be so persistent? It's like riding a tiger's back. Looking at the scenery, it is really dangerous! "

Li Shanchang narrowed his eyes, looked cold and said nothing.

Tao Kai continued: "Since ancient times, those who are attached to power and position have a good ending, there are only a handful of people who have a glory during their lifetime, and countless people who suffer from their descendants after their death. Adults are familiar with poetry and books. Do you still understand this principle?"

"The Prime Minister is one person, one person, one rank, and one rank above all officials. I think the emperor is the most suspicious, not to mention that the lord or the lord, the grand tutor, these official positions are not jealous and jealous. Once the lord is not a little careless, it will be a place that will never be restored? Taking advantage of the great emperor's grace now, why not retreat bravely? "

Li Shanchang still said nothing. The light in his eyes not only flashed with light that was not easy to detect. He thought for a moment, and suddenly sighed, saying, "Mr. Tao is right and right. The position of the Prime Minister is too high, and he is jealous of all officials. It is also close to the emperor, which naturally arouses His Majesty's concern and suspicion. He is not careful. Not only does all officials help, but even His Majesty feels lucky to gloat. At that time, everyone will fall down. The worst thing is the official?"[

"Sir, just understand, just understand!" Tao Kai was overjoyed and praised Li Shanchang with great joy.

Li Shanchang smiled mysteriously and said, "Today, Lord Tao's words made the original minister suddenly understand. I know what to do?"

Tao Kai was overjoyed and said, "It's rare for the lord to understand, it's rare for the lord to understand?"

Li Shanchang said: "Please rest assured, Lord Tao. After I have handled the major matters in my hand, I will definitely resign from the emperor, retire to the mountains and forests, be an idle cloud and wild crane, and have a few days of leisure!"

Tao Kai looked at Li Shanchang without moving. Seeing that his face was calm and not like lying, he was happy and was anxious to go back and report to Zhu Yuanzhang. He stood up and said with a fist, "I have been nagging for a long time. Please forgive me, mercy, please forgive me?"

Li Shanchang smiled without moving, and said with a fist, "Mr. Tao is so polite. Today, Shanchang remembers this kindness of Lord. Will he repay him well in the future?"

"Where, where, sir, are you polite?" Tao Kai bowed and left the Li family mansion.

A curtain of the inner courtyard was lifted open, and Li Cunyi's long body walked out, cursed a few times at Tao Kai's figure gradually distant, then turned around, looked at Li Shanchang, who was sitting on the Grand Master's chair beside him, and hesitated: "Brother, do you really want to retire to the mountains and forests?"

Li Shan's face was shady and gloomy, and he looked extremely ugly. He said coldly, "What should I do if I don't retreat to the mountains and forests? The emperor has already disgusted me and has become suspicious. If he doesn't retreat, I'm afraid that the emperor will not let me go?"

"Emperor, will the emperor really do this?" Li Cunyi seemed to be unbelievable and wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.
