Chapter 282 The Change of the Prince (Part 2)
Li Chengqian couldn't help but wonder, if he and Hou Junji continue to be entangled like this, which path will this devil, who has been blinded by utilitarianism, take him?
I worry day and night that my father will depose me and make Qingque the crown prince, while Hou Jun will work hard to get the position of Taiwei, rank among the three princes, and be the most respected minister!
As the saying goes, they hit it off immediately. He has the support of many courtiers, while Hou Junji controls the left guard army. This ending...
Cold sweat trickled down Li Chengqian's back, and his heavy clothes were soaked through in an instant!
Emperor Cepheus's rebellion?
Just thinking about it makes Li Chengqian scared to death!
His Majesty Li Er has always been in Li Chengqian's mind, that is, he is an invincible commander who is invincible in battles, invincible in all attacks, strategizing, and winning thousands of miles! All the enemies who stood in front of him were defeated by him one by one. No one could resist, let alone resist!
Even his uncle and third uncle were killed by his father, right?
Since you can kill your own brothers, what's so rare about your son? What's more, I have more than one son...
Li Chengqian simply didn't dare to think about it anymore. His mind was buzzing now, and he only had one thought - luckily he met Fang Jun that day!
It was precisely because of listening to Fang Jun's words and two poems that the more Li Chengqian thought about it after he came back, the more it made sense!
Does your father want Yi Chu?
Absolutely not!
What is the father afraid of? What he fears most is that his brothers will imitate his brother-killing behavior, leaving an eternal legacy! As long as he, the eldest son, can fulfill his duties, even if Qingque and the third child are outstanding, his father will not be easy to save!
Because once he deposes himself and replaces other brothers, it will leave a hint of endless disaster to future generations: the throne can be fought for! From then on, every time a new emperor of the royal family ascends the throne, it will be accompanied by bloody conspiracies and secret fights. The foundation of the empire will be exhausted bit by bit. Eventually, this old empire will fall apart and turn into ashes. Annihilation...
That's what my father absolutely doesn't want to see!
Therefore, just like Fang Jun said, he doesn't have to fight at all, because Gu is the eldest son, the prince, and the natural successor of the empire. Only Gu is qualified to inherit the splendid country of his father!
Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief, clenched his palms tightly, raised his eyes to look at Hou Junji, and said softly: "Li Jing has retired, Cheng Gong and Yuchi are both old, and the rest are irrelevant. Why should the Duke of the country insist?" Reading a mere name? ”
The implication is that those veteran generals have all retired, and the remaining ones cannot pose any threat to you. As long as you rely on your life peacefully, you will naturally become a military general and surrender, so why bother to take risks? Which false name?
Hou Junji was startled and looked at His Highness the Crown Prince in confusion. Is this... what the Crown Prince said?
Whenever he talks about this, the prince is always furious, angrily scolding his majesty for treating him poorly, but he favors the king of Wei even more. He walks on thin ice with fear all day long, fearing that when he wakes up, his majesty will write an edict to dethrone him as the prince, and he is in constant panic all day long. !
But today...
"Your Highness, the humble ministers have been waiting, so can Your Highness? It is better to strike first, and to strike later will suffer disaster. If you wait until His Majesty has made up his mind and issues the edict, there will be no changes. Your Highness will regret it too late!"
In the past, these "heartfelt" words would have made Li Chengqian extremely excited, but now, there is only endless chill.
He didn't want to have any disrespectful thoughts, because the father may not be easy to store!
He didn't dare to have any disrespectful thoughts, because he knew that no matter how many people supported him, they would definitely not be his father's opponent!
Hou Junji left with full of doubts, but Li Chengqian still sat on the couch, motionless.
He is an indecisive person, but also a kind-hearted person. He neither wants to be deposed by his father and then give him a glass of poisonous wine, nor does he want to stir up a storm and cause countless innocent people to die...
Although the afternoon sun was blazing, a breeze blew from the window at some point, taking away the heat in the hall and picking up a faint fragrance.
Li Chengqian looked up in shock, only to find that the Crown Princess Su was kneeling in front of him at some point, holding a cup of fragrant tea in her bare hands and staring at him with a pretty smile.
Li Chengqian touched his cheek and asked doubtfully: "Are there oil stains on Gu's face?"
Su Shi smiled and shook his head.
"Then why are you staring at Gu?"
Mrs. Su gently handed the teacup in her hand to Li Chengqian, and the pear dimple appeared: "I... I haven't seen His Highness thinking about things so quietly for a long time."
Li Chengqian was suddenly startled, and quickly picked up the teacup and drank tea to cover up his embarrassment.
Ever since he broke his leg and saw his father's disappointed eyes while lying on the bed, he had been living in fear.
How can the leader of a country be disabled and make all nations laugh at him?
He was afraid that his father would depose him as the crown prince, not because he was worthy of the emperor. If he were the second son, he would be a peaceful king in the prosperous age, indulge in drinking and reveling, and live up to his destiny!
But throughout the ages, has there ever been a deposed prince who died a good death?
Not only was he unable to die well, but the crown prince in front of him, whose canonization edict stated that she was "soft in appearance and quiet in nature," and the three underage sons, all received nothing more than a glass of poisonous wine...
< br>
I don’t want to die, and I don’t want my wife and children to suffer from this and die!
So I must fight!
Now I realize that I was wrong all along...
"I just saw Chen Guogong. He seemed to have an ugly face and left in a hurry. Did your Highness have a quarrel with Chen Guogong?" Su asked worriedly.
She didn't know much about things in the court, but she just felt that the prince was now disliked by his majesty, and many of the ministers who had acted according to the prevailing circumstances had become weeds, all leaning towards the King of Wei. Only one Hou Junji remained the same. Since he is loyal, His Highness must treat him with courtesy. Otherwise, if even this loyal minister is driven away, then the throne will really be lost...
Li Chengqian put down the tea cup and sighed softly: "Gu Yi jumped out of the mortar nest, but he is still addicted to it. It's not that he can't jump, but that he doesn't want to jump..."
Su Shi seemed to understand, but she changed the subject and talked about an interesting incident in Beijing. She said humorously: "My father is not in good health. I went to visit my house in the morning. I happened to meet my eldest brother, so we chatted for a few words. Eldest brother Said that Fang Erlang, known as the leader of Chang'an's dandy, did another thing. A big deal, I actually made a bet with Taichang Shaoqing Zheng Boling in the Taiji Palace, saying that it would rain within seven days... Now it has spread all over the capital, and everyone said that Fang Erlang may have had a wrong dream, thinking that he was a thunder god descending to earth. , The reincarnation of the Mother of Lightning, haha..."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smile.
But after laughing, he said calmly: "Everyone in the world knows that Fang Jun is a dandy, but they don't know that he is actually a talented person! It is widely said that this person is an excellent poet, but they don't know what is most outstanding about him. But he has an unpredictable way of observing things! He can burn sand into crystal clear glass, he can make lard into soap with strong decontamination ability, and the remaining waste liquid can actually make candles... If he said it would rain within seven days, so would Gu. Believe it or not, this person is truly powerful!”
Mrs. Su was a little dumbfounded. Her husband had always been arrogant and arrogant. How had he ever shown such high regard to others?
It’s not even a matter of admiration anymore, but of admiration!
Li Chengqian gently took Su's slender hand, looked deeply into his wife's eyes, and sighed softly: "I have suffered a lot from you all these years!"
Mrs. Su was stunned for a moment, then her heart suddenly throbbed, her pretty face turned red, and her eyes were instantly filled with tears!
With just this sentence, all the worry and fear in the past few years have become a thing of the past...
"I have already figured it out," Li Chengqian took a deep breath and looked firmly: "From today on, I will be the prince in an ordinary way, doing what I should do and not doing anything I shouldn't. If my father is satisfied, In the future, I will naturally work hard to take care of this beautiful river and mountains; if my father insists on Yi Chu, then I will ask my father to let me take you and a few children to find an island overseas to isolate myself from the world..."< br>
Tears poured down from Mrs. Su's eyes, and she held Li Chengqian's palm tightly with her backhand. She sobbed softly, with a smile on her pretty face, and hummed in a soft voice: "Shangxie, I want to know you, and live a long life." There are no mountains, no mountains, no rivers, no thunder in the winter, no rain and snow in the summer, but the sky and the earth are united..."
Li Chengqian laughed loudly: "If you get a wife like this, what else can a husband ask for?"
Are you saying these two pictures of mine are fake? Cliffhanger is not! I won't admit it even to death... Fang Jun's arrival not only affects the social structure of Datang, but also affects some people and things. So, let's start with Li Chengqian, who I think is the most miserable... But everyone Don’t think that I am Li Chengqian’s crown prince. You will never imagine the plot that will follow! Solemn warning: Never abandon the book~~o((≧▽≦o)ahhahaha...
