Chapter 207 Painting the pie again

Li Qun had already arranged everything before coming, and counting the time, the emperor’s body might not be able to hold on anymore.

Li Qun knew that the emperor would not let them go so easily. Even if he died, he would have to take them to be buried with him.

But this matter will not be as simple as the emperor thought. He has done so many evil things, and he should pay the price for what he has done this time.

The emperor was waiting for Li Qun's answer, but Li Qun's face remained unchanged, his eyes were calm, and he responded to the emperor: "The matter of establishing a crown prince is related to the country, the country, and the lifeline of the court. It is a royal matter and a national matter. .”

"Your Majesty summoned me to the palace to ask for my opinion. I was flattered. Since your Majesty asked the question, I risked losing my head."

"I should give your Majesty an answer."

Li Qun did not express his thoughts directly as the emperor wished. After all, this kind of thing is not a trivial matter.

There are still words to be polite and courteous. The emperor has always liked to hear such words, and now that he is about to die, he should not change his preference.

The emperor listened to Li Qun's convoluted words. Although the compliment sounded nice on the surface, in fact he could not hear the content. The emperor's face was calm, and his eyes were tired and fierce.

At this time, he had already lost the majesty he had when he first came to the throne many years ago. He could clearly feel that his life was like a candle that was about to burn out and he would soon be far away from the world.

But before that, he had to take away some people to eliminate the remaining evil for the next generation of kings.

"Then tell me, what is your answer?"

The emperor said, the strength in his tone was already insufficient, and he would cough twice in succession as soon as he finished a sentence. He raised his hand to cover his lips, his pale face made people feel weak.

“The answer is actually not that important. What is important is which prince you really want to be the crown prince.”

"Your choice is my choice."

"I will do my best to assist you and continue the Li family's country."

Li Qun answered the emperor's words very respectfully. , there was no offense in these words, but to the emperor's ears it sounded quite threatening.

The emperor's face became even more miserable when he heard Li Qun's words. When he heard the words "Li family", he only felt a little dazzling. If he died, the Li family here would still be the same as before. That Li royal family?

I’m afraid that’s not the case.

When the emperor saw that Li Qun had not spoken a sincere word from the beginning to now, his eyes froze, he took a gentle breath, and then exhaled, his tone was not as understated as before.

"Li Qun, there is no one else here."

"If you have any dissatisfaction, you can tell me, I will try my best to satisfy you."

The emperor knows that he has done this for so many years He felt sorry for Li Qun a lot, but as the emperor, he had many things to weigh and many interests to take care of. It was impossible for him to change his plan just to take Li Qun into consideration.

Many times, his choices represent huge interests, and every step he makes is a decision made after careful consideration.

The emperor knew that he had been separated from Li Qun for many years. Ever since he forcibly broke up his marriage with Cui Xiu, they had never talked about anything like before.

Li Qun heard the emperor's words, but he did not speak and remained silent.

The relationship between them is no longer the same as before, so he cannot express his dissatisfaction verbally. He will get what he wants by himself.

There is no need for Li Xiuhuai to give. Similarly, even if Li Xiuhuai is not willing to give, he will not give up taking it. This is what Li Xiuhuai owes and he must pay it back.

There is no room for negotiation between them, and some things have already reached the end of the road. The emperor waited for Li Qun to speak. He kept looking at Li Qun. Under such attention, Li Qun said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to test me anymore."

"It doesn't matter what I think in my heart. Your Majesty still puts the overall situation first."

"No matter Your Majesty chooses the fifth prince or the sixth prince, I will do my best to assist you."
< br>Li Qun knew that the emperor did not really want to make amends, but he had done a lot of bad things over the years and was afraid of retribution.

When the emperor heard what Li Qun said, he sighed softly, and then said: "The border troops came to report, and Beizhai came again."

"Are you willing to lead an army on an expedition?"

The emperor asked Li Qun carefully. He did this because he wanted to take advantage of this period of time to send Li Qun out. He didn't want to let Li Qun do what happened next. Get involved.

He has not killed all Li Qun for so many years, just to keep him as a chess piece to control the entire situation.

Li Qun is a heavenly general. His talent in fighting is extremely high, even higher than his father's talent. If such a talent disappears, who knows when the next one will come? .

The emperor is reluctant to part with Li Qun, but if Li Qun rebels against his superiors, even if he is unwilling to abandon this chess piece, he will still be cruel.

After all, a chess piece that cannot be manipulated, even if it has the effect of reversing the situation, will do more harm than good, and in the end it will be abandoned.

When Li Qun heard what the emperor said, he knew that what they had been talking about for so long was all nonsense.

This is the only reason why the emperor called him here today.

The emperor wanted him to stay away from Kyoto City during this period, just like when his father had an accident and his sister was isolated and helpless in Kyoto City.

He killed enemies for his country on the battlefield, but those in power treated his family so ruthlessly.

This often makes him doubt whether his actions are too selfless.

Li Qun has always cared about the world in his heart. He knew that the people affected by the war were innocent, so he would fight regardless of his own life until the last second of his life.

But cherishing the world does not mean giving up his family. Their Duke Xu's mansion has always been worth a thousand pounds in his heart.

The emperor wanted to repeat his old trick and let him lead the army at such a critical time. When he came back, everything returned to normal.

He will never have the chance to interfere in matters in Kyoto.

Li Qun only felt that the emperor's plan was really useful. Aren't he afraid that he would violate it in disguise?

Li Qun was unhappy, but he still replied: "If your majesty allows me to go, I will do whatever I can."

The emperor recalled what he did before, even more ruthlessly than before. Li Qun accidentally thought that his life would be lost, but he knew one thing.

That is the emperor's cruelty. He will be more cruel to himself than the emperor.

He will not give up any opportunity. The best moment has not yet been reached. He still needs to continue to work hard, but the emperor's time is running out.

No matter how hard it is, it only takes a few days.

"If you can return victorious this time, no matter what you say, I will satisfy you!"

When the emperor heard Li Qun's words, he immediately promised Li Qun with a smile.
