Chapter 260: Testing the Prince(1/2)
Empress Changsun is not very beautiful, but she is dignified, gentle and has an extraordinary temperament. She can no longer be described as beautiful.
She is the queen of Tang Dynasty.
It is the pride and dream of countless women in the Tang Dynasty.
She and Li Tianmin have been together for decades, and her position as queen has always been as stable as Mount Tai.
Ye Qingyun naturally maintains full respect for such a queen. .??.
“I’ve heard about Mr. Ye’s name for a long time, but when I saw him today, he is indeed well-deserved!”
Queen Changsun smiled.
Ye Qingyun smiled and said, "They are just false names. The queen does not need to take them to heart."
Li Tianmin said, "Master Ye, several of my princes are already in the hall, let's go there now."
Ye Qingyun nodded.
"good!"
At that moment, the group of people headed towards the main hall.
When we arrived at the main hall, we saw all the princes.
Except for Li Yuancheng, who has been deposed, Li Tianmin's other sons are already here.
One of five sons.
One of them was only three years old and looked a little at a loss when standing next to his brothers.
"You guys, please pay your respects to Mr. Ye immediately!"
Li Tianmin ordered.
Several princes quickly bowed to Ye Qingyun.
"Meet Mr. Ye!"
Even the three-year-old child learned well.
Ye Qingyun smiled and said, "I have met several of your highnesses."
Li Tianmin introduced them one by one.
"This is my second son Li Yuanhao."
"This is my third son Li Yuanfeng."
"This is my fourth son, Li Yuanxiu."
"This is my fifth son, Li Yuanke."
"This is my youngest son Li Yuanman."
Ye Qingyun looked at these five princes, and they all looked pretty good.
It can be seen that the bloodline of Lao Li's family is still very good.
Of course, choosing a prince is not just based on looks.
Appearance is secondary.
Mainly character and ability.<
br>
Li Yuancheng was cruelly destroyed by Li Tianmin because his character and ability were insufficient.
Otherwise, if he could see some hope, Li Tianmin would not make such a decision.
Now we have to choose a new prince.
Li Tianmin naturally had to be cautious.
Directly invite Ye Qingyun to help choose.
"Mr. Ye, which one of them do you think is more suitable to be the prince?"
Li Tianmin asked.
As soon as these words came out, except for the youngest prince who didn't understand anything, the expressions of the other four princes changed and they all looked at Ye Qingyun.
My father actually asked this person for his opinion?
Could it be said that this person's opinion can decide who becomes the prince?
For a time, the four princes all had their own thoughts.
Who doesn’t want to be a prince?
There was no hope before.
Now that Li Yuancheng has been deposed, wouldn't their opportunity come?
If I had known earlier that my father would ask this person to make the decision.
Then you should seize the opportunity to curry favor with this person before you wait for him.
pity.
It happened too suddenly.
They were completely unprepared.
"Your Majesty, these princes are very good."
Ye Qingyun said this.
How can he tell which of these princes is suitable?
Can this kind of thing be seen just by looking?
Anyway, Ye Qingyun didn't dare to decide easily.
This is not something that can be decided casually.
It is related to the future of such a large dynasty.
"Master Ye can give them a test."
Li Tianmin suggested.
Queen Changsun on the side also nodded.
Ye Qingyun thought for a while.
Then take the test.
Of course, Ye Qingyun couldn't test these princes in the usual way.
It is even more impossible to give them an arithmetic problem.
After thinking for a while, Ye Qingyun had an idea in his mind.
"Princes, if the Tang Dynasty is invaded by a powerful foreign enemy and the whole country needs to fight, and at this time there is a rebellion within the Tang Dynasty, what would you do, princes?"
When this question came up, even Li Tianmin didn't think of it.
This is too tricky.
And it is indeed a question worth thinking about.
There are powerful enemies outside.
There is rebellion within.
This is almost the biggest problem a dynasty can face.
If this time comes, it depends on what choice the emperor should make so that the dynasty can tide over the difficulties.
Once you make a careless decision, your country will be destroyed and your people will be destroyed.
Empress Changsun frowned.
She originally thought that Ye Qingyun would test some other aspects, such as poetry and poetry.
I didn't expect it to be such a test.
