In the imperial city, Li Chengqian completely collapsed to the ground. He didn't know why he was like this. What he did was not wrong in his own eyes, because he was just to preserve his position and the supreme throne. , but why is it like this? He asked himself again and again, but still couldn't get the answer, because in his world, everything was centered on himself, and he never took the people of the world into consideration. Such people would always have countless reasons to do things for themselves. He came out to justify things that hurt others, but when he finally lost, it was particularly desolate. Just like now, although Li Chengqian did not end up being unable to stand up forever because of the pleas of countless ministers and the concessions made by Li Kuan, he also lost all hope. "Father, please leave first!" Li Kuan did not stay long. He knew that no one in the civil and military circles in the dynasty had a good attitude toward him. Who asked his group of subordinates to come up with an unfounded threat that would make the entire dynasty angry? The hall was in a state of panic. So he left first. There were other things waiting for him to deal with, at least the group of barbarians needed him to deal with them. It is not that there are no soldiers to fight in the Tang Dynasty, but Li Kuan is going to deal with the barbarians who come out this time. This is his compensation and a move to express his position. "Go! I don't want to pursue those people anymore. But what they did did have a great impact. I hope you can take care of yourself!" Li Er did not keep Li Kuan. He now has a mess waiting to be dealt with. Li Kuan Leaving was just what he wanted, because some things couldn't be done in front of Li Kuan. "Auxiliary engine get up! Speaking of which, this is also my fault. The Tang Dynasty needs a king with courage and means. My country cannot be left in the hands of an incompetent person! I just didn't expect Cheng Qian to be so unsatisfactory. ! That¡¯s all!¡± Li Er said this without hesitation to everyone present, because these people had already proved their loyalty by being willing to die for the Tang Dynasty, and he believed that as long as he was here, these people would definitely know what to do. choose. But Li Er still miscalculated one person, and that was Hou Junji! "Father I know I was wrong, father!" Li Chengqian came to his senses on the ground at this time and begged: "I was just obsessed for a moment. Please have mercy on me! I don't dare to do it anymore. , All this is just a moment of confusion on the part of my son!¡± ¡°Cheng Qian, I have high hopes for you and hope that you will be decisive and courageous, but I didn¡¯t expect that your decision would be so ruthless, and I didn¡¯t expect your courage. You are so cruel! You are not suitable to be the successor of the empire, because you have no power in the world, so I will not tolerate it this time!" Li Er glanced at Li Chengqian and said. "Father" Li Chengqian opened his mouth and hesitated, but in the end he hung his head heavily because he also knew that the decision made by Li Er would not be changed easily, and this time it was in front of countless officials. The decision made in person is beyond doubt. But he was not willing to give in. None of this should have been like this. He should have been able to accumulate strength silently and then be fully prepared. It was finalized, but now he has become like a bereaved dog, lying on the ground like a dead dog. "Your Majesty, the prince just didn't grasp it for a while. Isn't all this too harsh?" Changsun Wuji still had a trace of luck at this time. "Not sure for a moment? Is this really the case? Although I didn't mention anything, how much have you done as an auxiliary machine in these years? Has he understood it? In the eyes of this boy, he only has the ability to control the country of Datang, but not How long will it take for him to realize the rise and fall of this empire? Will he believe what others tell him? Rebellion!" Li Er was very aware of Li Chengqian's actions over the years, and gradually lost his original hope. Because he gradually felt that he, the eldest son, yearned for a nomadic life. For the sake of gratification and grudges, everything must go according to his wishes. With such a big heart, he would never be able to become a convincing monarch, but he happened to be the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty. These things can be done by barbarians and foreigners, and people from the rivers and lakes and green forests can do these things, but as the prince of the Tang Dynasty. This is something that must never be done. "I can tell him what to do, but he will do it perfectly in front of me, but when he is behind my back, he is completely different. How can I trust him to hand over the Tang Dynasty to him with such obsessive and treacherous behavior?" Li Er said calmly: "Moreover, his mind is too narrow-minded. When I questioned him just now, he actually tried to drag others into the water. If such an irresponsible person becomes the king of the Tang Dynasty, that will be the biggest problem." It¡¯s a mistake! It¡¯s just that no one has spoken out about the reasons for his teachings, but his position cannot satisfy me!¡± ¡°What the Holy One said is reasonable, but how can Chengqian understand what we want him to achieve? OnlyHe's just a seventeen-year-old boy! "Changsun Wuji sighed. "When I was seventeen years old, I had already gone into battle to kill the enemy. That boy Li Kuan was younger than him, but the things he did were not inferior to what I did back then. All of this is actually related to my age. It has nothing to do with it, but whether he is willing to do it or not. There are some things that I can tell him directly, but there are some things that can only be understood by oneself. Only those who understand in person will benefit them throughout their lives! And if we tell him bluntly, it will only make it more difficult for him to take another step forward in the future! "Li Er said. "Your Majesty, I dare you to let me teach His Highness the Crown Prince for one year. If you can't make the Crown Prince become what Your Majesty wants, then don't worry about anything. If there is still hope for the Crown Prince, then I hope Your Majesty will give him a chance. ! " Changsun Wuji requested. "Auxiliary engine, is this worth it? A country is easy to change, but a temperament is hard to change! "Li Er glanced at Changsun Wuji indifferently. This old minister's stubbornness frightened him. "I am willing to use my body as a guarantee!" One year to change the prince and make him a qualified successor to the empire! " Changsun Wuji bowed and knelt down. " Come on I'll give you and Cheng Qian this chance! It's just that I don't want any guarantee from you. If you can't satisfy me in one year, then he can just be an idle prince for the rest of his life! "Li Er agreed to Changsun Wuji's request. After all, he had prevented Changsun Wuji from giving advice to Li Chengqian more than once. "I kneel down to thank you, Your Majesty! "Changsun Wuji kowtowed to the ground and did not get up for a long time. He hoped that Li Chengqian could inherit Li Er's throne, so that the eldest son's family would completely become the top family in the Tang Dynasty, instead of being neither good nor low like now. The superiors would not do anything for it. The Tianxia Family admits that it is indeed much better than the ordinary distinguished families, but it does not have such a deep foundation, and Li Er is so majestic that the eldest son's family will definitely not be able to completely rise under his command. Li Chengqian had an opportunity, but all this was a discussion between him and Changsun Wuji. The others have not yet learned about it, because the two of them avoided the ministers in the main hall during the discussion and were in the Li Zheng Hall. After the discussion in the side hall, Li Kuan left the palace and returned to his mansion. This time, he was alone. The huge Chu Prince's Mansion was now empty. Only the servants were carefully cleaning it and keeping the entire mansion clean. He was not going to take those three women back for the time being, because his purpose had not yet been achieved. This time he was just coming back to solve the problems he had encountered before. But when he came back, a thin figure was kneeling in Chu. In front of the palace. "This is" Li Kuan suddenly felt dizzy when he saw that figure from a distance. It was none other than Li Kuan's precious sister Li Lizhi. It was already late autumn, and Li Lizhi was wearing thin clothes. Kneeling at the gate of Prince Chu's Mansion, the autumn wind picked up her hair, and her long hair was swaying in the wind, and her dress was covered with dust on the ground, making her look particularly miserable. Originally her pupils were as clear as autumn water, but now they are muddy and seem to have lost all their vitality. Only the faint flame swaying slightly in the depths of her pupils is what Li Kuan said to her before he left last time. Those words. It was that hope that kept her going, but she didn't know if this hope was a lie, and she didn't know when the colorful bubbles burst like a dream in her mind. What she did every day became simple and persistent, which was to wake up early in the morning and take good care of Xiao Qiuqiu, and then wait in front of the Prince of Chu's Mansion, waiting for the person who gave her hope. But waiting for so many days made her feel uncomfortable. Extremely tired, but unable to give up, her fragile body persisted, just because she trusted him, from the time she first sat and waited in the Chu Palace until now. Kneeling down in front of Prince Chu's Mansion, no one tried to persuade her, "Li Zhi, why are you doing this? "Li Kuan came up behind her gently and let out a long sigh. For this kind of congenital disease, he could only do his best to obey fate. He was really not sure whether it would succeed or not, and he weighed a few pounds. He It's very clear. Everything is uncertain, so he can only try his best. But with Li Zhi's appearance, he is extremely hopeful that everything will get better. "Second brother" Hearing Li Kuan's voice, a glimmer of hope flashed in Li Zhi's eyes. , the whole person became 'alive'. She remembered clearly that the second brother said that when he came back, he would be able to solve Xiao Qiuqiu's stubborn illness. (To be continued.)
