Emperor Mingyuan heard the cold sweat falling down. He wanted to defend himself, but found that he could not defend himself.

Prince Anfeng continued: "When you enthrone the crown prince, you do not examine the abilities of the kings, and you should focus on preferences and those who flatter you will look up to you, and those who disobey will not consider it. As a result, the country's foundation will be fought for a long time, and the city will be disturbed. When you establish Yuwenhao as the crown prince, you are unwilling to be the king, and you are always afraid of making mistakes. You repeatedly let Yuwen'an become a big shot. If it were not for the prince's restraint, Yuwen'an's ambitions have never stopped.

There is another incident in the leprosy mountain. At that time, the conditions in the country were bad, and the surrounding areas were invading several times. Xianbei and Beimo were eyeing each other. Most of the energy of the country was transferred to the border. When you ascend the throne, you could have sorted out the livelihood issues of the country, reforming medical care and education, but you did not do anything, and still used the last resort of your father's last resort. Until the crown princess cured the leprosy and felt safe, he decided to reform. In recent years, you have not made any mistakes, but you have not made any great contributions. When you sent troops to Beimo, you missed the best time. Fortunately, the prince did not listen to you and secretly improved his weapons. Otherwise, today's Northern Tang Palace would have been bloody, and you would have been on the throne today and ordered all the ministers?"

"If you say it yourself, you can at most tell the story of the incident that you personally visited the disaster area during the floods of Huaijiang River and never closed your eyes for three days and three nights. You have been praising this for a year, and the people have been talking about you as a saint, but even now, you have never issued an order to build a dam, and the disaster is still there."

"You can spend all these years safely, not because you are so lucky, but because your father abdicated, Chu Xiaowu does not have to be the chief assistant. In order to support you, he is in poor health, and he still serves as the chief assistant. But you really make things difficult for him. In order to revitalize farming and suppress business, you have been entrusted with good people. In order to revitalize farming and suppress business, you have been entrusted with good people. In order to increase the number of cultivated land, you have opened the prison door. Whether you commit murder or exiled serious criminals, you have sent them to reclamation. After three years of reclamation, you will be issued a good citizen certificate, resulting in the increase of local murder cases year after year. The chief assistant went to various prefectures and prefectures to establish a special team of murderers, and almost died of exhaustion on the road. There are countless such things. What are your face? Say you have a great wise ruler?

Don't justify your father doing this during his dynasty, but he had no choice but to fight for so many years, his national strength was weak and his people were gone, so he could only do this, but you don't need it. When he abdicated, he had cleared most of the obstacles for you."

Emperor Mingyuan's face was ashamed, and he could not refute Prince Anfeng. He was indeed not a wise ruler.

After counting it, Prince Anfeng looked at his expression and said, "But, although you have no great achievements, you have no big mistakes. You are indeed not a foolish emperor. You distinguish right from wrong, serve the people wholeheartedly, and work diligently, not indulge in leisure and joy. You focus on political affairs. The people are willing to call you a lord. It is not because you have made great achievements, but because you have not caused too much chaos to this country.

This king doesn't blame you. It was because you made you the crown prince because you had the feelings of family, country, and the world, and were diligent, willing to suffer grievances for the Northern Tang Dynasty, and value the country but rather than yourself. But when you no longer have these, you are not worthy of being this emperor. Now, it seems that the world has been peaceful, and you suddenly become important and start to make a fuss. But your father and the chief minister have been polished out in the past ten years of your ten years as king. After this battle with the Beimo, do they still have the strength to see you continue to be mediocre?

When you should make drastic reforms, you still stagnate and even got angry at this time. Do you think you can still be regarded as the emperor?

I don’t give you this face and lead troops to besiege the imperial city. I want to tell you that if you don’t become this emperor, I can replace you at any time. You can choose to continue to be mediocre, or you can choose to use wise men, abolish water conservancy, build roads, develop farming and revitalize the economy, enhance national strength, and military, and stabilize the status of the Northern Tang, because the next twenty years will be crucial. Only when the Northern Tang Dynasty does what I say can it be truly comparable to the Great Zhou, Dayue, Daxing and other countries, otherwise, it will still be backward."

Emperor Mingyuan felt a chill and a hot feeling. He felt blood buzzing into his head, and then suddenly blew away with a bang. His whole body was cold. He always thought he was doing well and the people thought so, but when he dreamed at midnight, he was still guilty. It can be seen that what Prince Anfeng said was not bad at all. He was not very wrong, but he was not very good at it.

The twenty-year development that Prince Anfeng has been emphasizing was exactly the same as what the Supreme Emperor once said to him, but he did not feel so urgent, because this time, the Beimo severely defeated Beimo and signed a peace agreement. If Beimo violated it, Beitang could promote a righteous army and attack Beimo.

And he believes that what's wrong with vigorously developing farming?

Only when the people are full can they develop their national strength, and he has not lost the trade economy. He has been developing in the past two years. Although this is what Lao Wu wants to do, there is no conflict with his original intention. He even married the princess to Leng Si and improved the status of a businessman.

He did what he thought he should do. As for what is not so urgent, if the national strength does not allow it, he is powerless to do anything.

He chewed this sentence repeatedly in his heart, but heard Prince Anfeng say another sentence, "Twenty years have not been developed for you. In these twenty years, there will be various contradictions, domestic contradictions, and some frictions with neighboring countries. Therefore, you cannot be tired, relaxed, and delayed. Being an emperor is a waste of nothing!

Emperor Mingyuan looked at him in a daze. Aren’t he going to force the palace?

Why did you teach him a lesson?

Prince Anfeng also looked at him, "So, do you admit that you are confused?

I just asked you, why have I not come here for so many years but now?

You haven't even thought about other possibilities, just thinking that I am coveting your throne, and the world is so great, everything is not just one reason. If your mind remains unchanged, you will be self-confidenced, and do not explore other possibilities, the Northern Tang Dynasty will stagnate forever like you!"

"So, don't you come for the custody?"

Emperor Mingyuan asked.

He patted Emperor Mingyuan on the shoulder, "For a country, crisis is always everywhere. Think about it carefully, don't always yell that you are not wrong. When you were established, you knew you were mediocre. Your father tried his best to plan for you. Although he was not satisfied for many years, he would only interfere with you too much. He would be afraid of losing your ruling power and be afraid of being the emperor. He supported him hard with his old age and was your backing. This time it seemed to be a dispute between the prince and you, but in fact, the prince was a beacon he chose for you. He was afraid that if he was gone, you would be wary of the prince again. Then he could foresee the future of the Northern Tang Dynasty. He must ensure that you trust the prince and truly achieve a balance. He would not threaten the status of the country because of other princes or princes. Only then can he be at ease.

He is not fond of the prince or fighting for status for the prince. He is afraid that you will be favored for the moment, which will damage your brother's harmony, ruin his decades of planning, and ruin the Northern Tang Dynasty!"
