"Father, I think what you ministers said is very good and accurate!"
"So...for the position of crown prince, you must not consider your sons and ministers!"
Li You stood firmly with Changsun Wuji, Hou Junji, Chai Shao and other ministers! It was as if he was on the same side with them!
[We just want to be a dandy prince, and when we grow up, we can go to our own fiefdom to farm well. This is our goal!]
[Originally, we were reluctant to participate in the court meeting and take charge of General Zuo Wuwei. Li Er, please don’t go too far!]
[Don’t even think about letting us be the prince! It’s absolutely impossible!]
If being an emperor is a short-lived profession, then being a prince is an extremely short-lived, and it is also a high-risk profession. Look at the princes in the past dynasties, how did they live their lives? There are very few who can successfully ascend to the throne, not to mention many. As for Li Chengqian, he was originally a kind-hearted person who respected his teachers and filial piety, but he was forced to become a pervert who was cautious, suspicious, and played with his sleeves.
Although Li You has a system and has accumulated a lot of trump cards by keeping diaries and signing in over the years, it would be too wasteful to use them all in political intrigues.
As soon as these words came out.
All the ministers were stunned! They looked confused!
what's the situation?
There are still people who refuse to be crown princes themselves?
Are you so self-aware?
Li You saw that the surrounding ministers were looking at him blankly, and said quickly: "Everyone, please don't be in a daze. Tell me if you have any dirty information about me. Don't worry, I am with you and have the same goal. That is You can’t let me become the prince!”
Changsun Wuji:....
Fang Xuanling:....
Du Ruhui:....
Hou Junji:....
Chai Shao:....
The ministers were all speechless. Li You's reverse operation immediately stunned them, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
Faced with such an interesting situation, Li Shimin rarely laughed. Looking at some ministers in the court who had not expressed their opinions, he asked: "My dear friends, what do you think about making that prince the prince?"
The meaning of Li Shimin's words is already obvious, that is, to let those ministers who have not expressed their stance clearly express their attitude.
"I think that Li Ke, the king of Han, can be made the crown prince!"
"I second the proposal!"
"I second the proposal!"
.....
The remaining ministers basically chose to support the King of Han Li Ke.
After all, after King Li Tai of Wei and King Li Zhi of Jin were eliminated in advance, King Li Ke of Han was indeed the most suitable candidate.
As for King Yan Li You, he would not choose it unless there was something wrong with his head.
See this scene.
Li You smiled with satisfaction.
[It’s not bad to let Li Ke be the prince, it’s better than that guy Li Tai.]
[To put it bluntly, as long as we are not allowed to be the prince, we have no problem with Li Er choosing a pig to be the prince. 】
【The overall situation has been decided! I can finally go back home to catch up on my sleep!】
At this moment, Wei Zheng walked out slowly!
Li You's heart skipped a beat when he saw Wei Zheng. Since the last time he defeated Wei Zheng in the court, this famous official of the Tang Dynasty had a 180-degree change in his attitude toward him. He heard that he would defend himself on various occasions. This once....
[No...this Wei Zheng wants to ruin our good deeds!]
[Wei Zheng, I’m warning you, don’t act recklessly! We finally got the situation under control, but you will be ruined by us!]
…
[If you play our book seriously, we will send you the 82-year-old Lafite wine from our collection later. If you want to say good things to us, I will kill you!]
82 years old wine? Lafite?
Is it the 582 vintage? That is a good wine that is forty or fifty years old!
Li Shimin almost laughed when he heard this.
I just think that my fifth son is really interesting!
Others fought for the position of the prince, and even fought against each other, but this Li You tried his best to not be the prince!
The corners of Li Shimin's mouth raised slightly, "Wei Aiqing, if you have any suggestions, tell me quickly!"
Wei Zheng bowed solemnly to Li Shimin, and then said: "Your Majesty, I do not agree with Lord Fang Xuanling, Lord Du Ruhui and several other Lords' views on King Yan!"
"Although everyone in the world thinks that His Highness Prince Yan is cynical and willful, it would be a huge slander to say that he is lazy and has made no contribution to the country and the country!"
"I only want to say one thing. Does anyone know how potatoes are obtained?"
Huo Guogong Chai Shao said calmly: "I heard that King Yan accidentally discovered it when he was out hunting. It's just good luck! Any merit is just a small merit."
Wei Zheng shook his head, "This potato was not discovered by accident, but was cultivated by King Yan who spent countless days and nights!"
"I know you won't believe it, but I, Wei Zheng, can use the lives of my whole family as a guarantee!"
Li Shimin suddenly became interested and asked with a smile: "Wei Aiqing, why are you so sure?"
Wei Zheng cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, after I saw potatoes in the court last time, I conducted a private investigation and asked the maids and servants of Chengxiang Palace and Prince Yan's Mansion. They can all testify that Prince Yan often cultivates various kinds of potatoes in the backyard. Crops, and potatoes are one of them, I work until late at night every time!"
“It is precisely because of King Yan’s hard work that
^0^, Only then did we have the magical potato with an output of more than 1,000 kilograms per mu! How can you say that King Yan is lazy? How can you say it is a small achievement? I think King Yan has made great achievements for the Tang Dynasty. Credit!”
Wei Zheng's words left Chai Shao, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others speechless!
This was not over yet, Wei Zheng continued: "In addition, King Yan cherishes the palace maids and servants, observes the people's sentiments in the music room, and makes no mistakes! Make him the prince! I think it is feasible!"
Yin Hongzhi was so excited that he clapped the wat board in his hand, "Well said!"
Xu Jingzong and Quan Wanji also nodded repeatedly, sighing in their hearts. They are indeed the former Yushi Zhongcheng. With a few words, they immediately changed the bad image of King Yan as a playboy and incompetent into a good image of a low-key, calm and good prince who cares about the world. !
But... Changsun Wuji, Hou Junji, Wang Gui, Chai Shao and others were not happy!
Changsun Wuji pointed at Wei Zheng with a wat board and said angrily: "Wei Zheng, what are you talking about?"
Wang Gui: "As expected of Mr. Wei Zhengwei, you have turned black into white!"
Chai Shao sneered and said: "What about King Yan? In the minds of your Majesty and the people of the world, it is a natural number. Even if you are eloquent, you cannot change the result!"
Hou Junji: "Traitor! If you are in the army, I will kill you!"
Li Shimin felt very comfortable listening to it. He felt that there was nothing wrong with what Wei Zheng said. He even wanted to add more, such as the Quyuan plow, waterwheel and iron pot trading, Pinghu Shice, etc. that were promoted at the same time. Provided by Youer.
…
If anyone dares to say that Youer is incompetent, I, Li Shimin, will be the first to refuse!
"Hou Junji! This is the Tai Chi Palace, not the army. Stop beating and killing!" Li Shimin scolded.
Hou Junji, who was the most arrogant, immediately stopped and said he did not dare.
Upon seeing this, Chai Shao, Wang Gui, and Changsun Wuji did not dare to say anything and quickly retreated.
Li Shimin continued: "Wei Aiqing just expressed his own opinion, why are you so angry? Fortunately, you usually ask me to listen to different opinions. If your feelings come to your own, you can't do it, right?"
"But I think Wei Aiqing's evaluation of King Yan is very pertinent and reasonable!"
boom!
The heads of the ministers were suddenly buzzing.
They looked at Li Shimin in panic, and had a bad premonition in their hearts!
No way! No way! Does your Majesty really want to make King Yan Li You the crown prince?
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty!"
When Wei Zheng heard that Li Shimin recognized his remarks, he bowed to Li Shimin and returned to his seat. At the same time, he did not forget to cast an encouraging look at Li You!
Li You:I￥%*
At this moment, Li You really wanted to rush forward and punch Wei Zheng twice.
[Wei Datai! What's wrong with you? Where are we, who promised to join in with Henhen? Look what you said?]
[Damn, after listening to what you said, I feel like I am a prince with a moral model! 】
【Tiantian, if you don’t do business, you have to do something important, right? 】
[Originally, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, and Wang Gui combined their firepower to knock us out in one wave. Now, it’s better. You can use a wave of poisonous milk to send our milk to the sky!]
[That guy Li Er looks at me differently. I’m afraid he really wants to make me the prince! I’m so annoyed!]
[No matter what, as long as Li Er dares to say that he will make me the prince, I will give up the throne directly, or run away with the bucket! In this society without cameras and eyes, Li Er can't even think of finding me!]
Listening to Li You's collapsed inner speech, Li Shimin was angry and laughing at the same time!
What made him laugh was that it was too late to be happy when people knew he was going to become the prince, but Li You was annoyed to death. What made him angry was that this kid Li You actually wanted to run away!
However, Li You's words made Li Shimin hesitate.
After comparing several sons, he really liked the fifth one, Li You!
However, Li Shimin also knew Li You's temper. If Li You was directly canonized as the crown prince, this kid would really be able to escape, so...
After thinking for a moment, Li Shimin already made a decision in his mind.
"Okay, I have made a decision regarding the selection of the crown prince!"
Upon hearing this, the officials immediately looked at Li Shimin nervously.
"I have decided...not to establish a crown prince for the time being! The next period of time will serve as an assessment period. All my sons will be the subject of assessment. After passing the assessment in various aspects, I will finally establish a crown prince! To the peace of all my dear friends, the world The hearts of the people!"
Li Shimin finished speaking.
The ministers were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise!"
There is no way! In their opinion, this is the best result. If Yan King Li You really becomes the prince, it will be bad!
As long as the world is undecided, they all still have a chance!
…
"Father is wise!"
King Li Tai of Wei, King Li Ke of Han and Li You also clasped their fists and shouted in unison.
[Huh~ This is pretty good, Li Er is pretty good at being a good person.]
[Test? We have never been afraid of anyone, and we are very stable in last place!]
[Let Li Tai, Li Ke and others fight for the position of prince.]
[I still want to live my own leisurely life! Continue to maintain my persona of a playboy prince!]
Just when everyone thought that the crown prince issue was over, Li Shimin continued: "I am ready to re-establish Tiance Mansion!"
boom!
^0^ This news was like a thunder exploding in the Tai Chi Hall.
In Tiance Mansion, when Li Shimin was still the King of Qin, in order to highlight Li Shimin's heroic achievements, the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan created a special official position that was almost equal to that of the Prince's East Palace! He had his own official system to recruit officials and retainers!
The power is huge! And in the absence of a prince, the owner of the Tiance Mansion is equivalent to a prince!
After Li Shimin became emperor, Tiance Mansion naturally disappeared!
Now, it was Li Shimin himself who was brought up again and wanted to reopen Tiance Mansion!
The ministers are all extremely nervous now, and they don't dare to speak casually. They are just waiting for Li Shimin's next words!
Sure enough, Li Shimin continued to say slowly:
"Li You, King of Yan, cultivated the sacred potato and made great achievements. He was conferred as General Tiance, founded the three departments of Yitong, and established his own official office! He is responsible for the promotion of potatoes and mutual trade with Turks!"
Boom!
The heads of all the officials in the Taiji Hall were exploded again, causing them to almost faint!
They were originally very curious. His Majesty was very optimistic about King Yan Li You just now, and his words revealed his intention to make King Yan the crown prince, but in the end he decided not to make him the crown prince for the time being. His Majesty was waiting for them here!
His Majesty conferred the title of General Tiance on King Yan, opened a palace and is responsible for several important affairs of the current court. After a period of assessment, wouldn't it be easy to win the first place and then naturally become the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty?
Also, in the Tang Dynasty where there was no prince, what was the difference between General Tiance and the prince?
How could the officials who had reacted be willing to agree?
"I will die to remonstrate with you!"
Changsun Wuji couldn't bear it anymore!
He had accompanied Li Shimin from General Tiance to the throne step by step, so he naturally knew how important the position of General Tiance was.
King Yan Li You must not be allowed to sit in that position.
"Haha, in my Tang Dynasty, the monarchs and ministers are harmonious. We can speak freely and open up the avenues of expression. There is no need to be constantly admonishing! If you have anything to say, just say it!"
After Li Shimin made his decision, he was in a good mood. He leaned back on the dragon chair and said with a smile.
Changsun Wuji: "Your Majesty! When you became General Tiance, you made tremendous contributions to the Tang Dynasty. This was specially designed by the Supreme Emperor just for you!"
"However, Li You, King of Yan, has no meritorious service except for cultivating the sacred potato. He is not even qualified for the post of General Zuo Wuwei, let alone General Tiance!"
"It is not unreasonable for the people to call King Yan the third generation of the Tang Dynasty. If Your Majesty insists on doing so, I am afraid that the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed after three generations!"
"Your Majesty's arrangement is really...ridiculous! It's an act of foolishness!"
"Your Majesty, please think again!"
Changsun Wuji was also a little over the top! He directly called Li Shimin a foolish king and said that the Tang Dynasty would perish in three generations!
This shocked Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and other ministers!
The ministers were extremely nervous at the moment. They were really worried that His Majesty would be angry and someone might have their heads dropped!
However...
Li Shimin burst out laughing.
I laughed secretly in my heart and said: Ridiculous? What a foolish act? If I had listened to you and made Li Zhi the crown prince, the Tang Dynasty would have perished for three generations! You don’t understand Li You at all! You don’t know what the real Li You is. Great talent, even I am not as good as him!
"I know what you are thinking, but this time you are... wrong!"
Like the Tang Dynasty: The dandy prince, whose diary was peeked by Li Er
Dear, this chapter is finished, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
