Chapter 18 Li Yuan's Thoughts
Li Yuan was very surprised by Li Haochen's sudden performance, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. Li Jiancheng knew that he was not good at seeing this. After several contacts, Li Haochen definitely belonged to the kind of fearless person. It was a good proof that he dared to beat Li Tai in the street.
When Li Yuan reacted, Li Jiancheng frowned and spoke first: "Haochen, what are you doing? Get up quickly, my father is tired, don't bother him anymore!" Li Jiancheng looked at Li Haochen with attentive eyes, hoping that he would not cause trouble, so he quickly got up and left with him.
At this moment, Li Yuan said, "Cared, don't worry, I must first hear what your newly appointed General Zhongwu has to know!" As he said that, Li Yuan returned to his Grand Master's chair, and then said to Li Haochen: "Tell me! I will hear!"
Li Haochen knew that he would definitely not be able to express his thoughts directly. He had already planned it before Li Yuan came out. Therefore, as soon as Li Yuan finished speaking, he said, "I have a story to tell His Majesty. When I was a child, there was an old man from my hometown, who was a great charity. The old man had already beaten up at such an age, so I wanted to find an heir for my family business. The old man had many sons, but among these sons, the eldest son and the second son were the most capable. The old man followed the ancient method and let the eldest son inherit the family business. However, the old man loved his second son very much. When the old man was alive, he always met his eldest son.
When he had a conflict with his second son, the old man wanted to pass the family business to his eldest son in the future, and he always favored his second son. Finally one day, the old man died, and everyone thought that the eldest son would inherit the family business. Who knew that because the old man favored the second son too much when he was alive, many people in the family depended on the second son. So after the old man passed away, the second son of the old man joined forces with other forces in the family to drive the eldest son out of the house and he inherited the position of the head of the family. The eldest son not only lost the position of the head of the family, but also left the house and died unfortunately! The story of the minister is over!"
After hearing this, Li Jiancheng took a breath. Li Jiancheng could not believe that the story Li Haochen told was true. This was just a silly statement about the relationship between the father and son.
Li Jiancheng could understand, how could Li Yuan not know what Li Haochen meant?
However, Li Yuan was surprised not angry, but asked Li Haochen with interest: "I ask you, if you are an old official, how should you do it? You must know that the palms and backs of your hands are flesh!"
Li Haochen said slowly, "If I were an old man, I would rely on my eldest son when I was still alive, because he wanted to inherit my family business. I wanted my second son to know in my heart that the position of the head of the family is something he cannot covet, and at the same time let the elders in the family know who will be the real heir in the future. I will not be ambiguous. In this case, although I may feel a little sorry for my second son, at least there will be no brothers who will be killed in me a hundred years later."
After hearing this, Li Yuan said nothing for a long time, and sighed for a moment, "I understand!" He turned to look at Li Jiancheng and said, "Jiancheng, you have found a talent!" Then he looked at Li Haochen and said, "I didn't expect that you had such an opinion at a young age. You should follow the prince to assist him. In the future, the prince will ascend the throne. You will be the most powerful minister. I am not that old man, and I am not confused!"
As he said that, Li Yuan looked at Li Jiancheng kindly and said, "Jiancheng, I originally thought that in the future, you will be in charge of the Tang Dynasty. Let Shimin lead the troops to defend the enemy outside, so that the Tang Dynasty will be stable. But recently I have also discovered that Shimin has the desire of emperors. If he really lets him lead the troops outside, I am afraid that you will be really unstable in the Tang Dynasty at that time! I know all these, but you value civil officials and despise military generals. There are no generals in the Eastern Palace. All the generals in the court who can conquer and fight well are in Shimin's Tiance Mansion. This is also my mistake at the beginning, and it is too late to regret it now. It is precisely because of this that if Shimin is really forced to force him to raise an army, how should you deal with it? So I have never made up my mind. I think that my old bone can last for a few years.
Head, as long as I am still alive, Shimin will definitely not dare to rebel. After all, no one will be sincerely helped by unfaithful people. Shimin is smart by nature and will definitely not do this! So I also wonder if I can do my best to repair the relationship between you and the two of you. Unfortunately, I also know that this may be just my wishful thinking, but I cannot see you in trouble, and I cannot see the future Tang River, bloody storm. Therefore, even though I know that it is impossible, I must try my best to try it out!" As Li Yuan paused, glanced at Xue Wanche, then looked at Li Haochen and then said, "But today I can make up my mind! No need to compromise, I will issue an order in a while." This is very obvious. With these two people here, he doesn't have to be afraid that Li Shimin will lead the Tiance Mansion to rebel in the future.
After listening to Li Yuan's words, Li Jiancheng realized how good his father was. Thinking of his father's thoughts on him so much, his eyes were red and his voice was choked: "My father's teachings must be remembered in my heart! You must also take care of the dragon body and rest early!" As he spoke, it was getting late. The three of them came out of Li Yuan's palace and saw a bright moon in the sky. It was already three times. The three of them thought about their own thoughts and did not say much, so they all returned to their respective residences in the East Palace. They were speechless all night!
Early the next morning, Li Haochen was woken up by a soldier. He had no habit of getting up early. At the same time, he was a fat man as high as 300 pounds. He was sleepy and the soldiers did not dare to call him hard. So after this procrastination, he got up until Si Shi, and then asked the soldiers, "What happened?"
The soldiers said that there was a royal list posted in the military camp this morning, and no one knew the words, so they wanted to ask the general to see what was written on it.
Li Haochen was also curious about what was written on the emperor list, so he washed up briefly and followed the soldier to see what was going on. Li Haochen approached the emperor list and took a breath, and saw that the emperor list said:
On the ninth day of the fifth month of the ninth year of Wude, Emperor Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty told the world that Prince Li Jiancheng was diligent and loving the people, and his kindness was kind... The general meaning was to praise Prince Li Jiancheng very well.
The general meaning of the second paragraph is: "Today, when the Emperor Li Shimin of Qin was established, the Shence Mansion established by the war has lost its meaning. The Shence Mansion was specially cancelled. The generals of the Shence Mansion originally mean that those who continue to make meritorious contributions in the Tang Dynasty can stay, and the court will have their own appointments. If they want to return to their hometown, the court will play back the hometown according to their military merits." Li Haochen nodded secretly and said to himself that His Majesty the Emperor had indeed taken action.
