For so many years, the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs have not been in control, isn't it the same as living in peace? "

"When I know people and employ people, I can score points. When I know that I am in control, I can give my subjects freedom so that they don't realize that they are under control. In this way, the monarch and his subjects will get along more harmoniously. This is the emperor's mind.

And I am the Son of Heaven, and I will not allow the majesty of the Son of Heaven to be provoked, so I will not allow any existence under my rule that is beyond my control.

Speaking of Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, then you look back, where are the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes now?

I can live in peace with them, but it doesn't mean that I can tolerate such existence forever. I spent 20 years burying my head and accumulating, and finally got rid of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.

Because of this, I cannot just sit back and watch the birth of another five-surname and seven-wang. "

Seeing Li Chengqian's attitude softened, Li Er explained to his son with a teaching mentality.

Everything today was doomed to the collapse of Li Er's image of a wise king in Li Chengqian's heart, so Li Chengqian was hit hard, and he felt that he was powerless to persuade his father politically.

"Father, there are people beyond people, and there is heaven beyond the sky, even if our Li family becomes the royal family and dominates the world, even if you are the emperor and no one can match, there will always be existences beyond your control in the world, right?

Manpower is sometimes poor, and the most difficult thing to conquer is our ambition and greed. You designed to get rid of Du Shaoqing this time, but can you guarantee Datang Wannian?Everyone understands that there is no thousand-year dynasty.

Unless you can live longer than the sky, it is really hard to say whether what you have done today will continue the Li Family Tang Dynasty or harm the Li Family Datang Dynasty. "

Li Er gritted his teeth and said, "Do your best to obey the destiny!"

"personnel?

Don't forget, Du Shaoqing is your son-in-law, he also saved the life of the empress mother, not only the empress mother, how many people in our family have been saved by him?This kind of life-saving grace, in exchange for your suspicion and massacre, what will the people of the world think?Are you really hard-hearted? " Li Chengqian questioned.

It's a pity that he forgot that the emperor was afraid of Du Shaoqing, so the more he talked about Du Shaoqing's favor and ability at this time, the more the emperor's fear was aroused. It was because Du Shaoqing was too powerful and made friends with too many people, so it was even more terrifying.

"Throughout the ages, for this seat, how many people went on and on and shed their blood like rivers. What kind of revenge is there for revenge? The relatives are all ruthless and ruthless, let alone a mere foreign relative." Li Eryi looked indifferent, but the corners of his mouth twitched slightly betrayed his heart.

"So, this is the real person you are?" Li Chengqian was full of disappointment, "I remember when I was studying in the medical center, I talked with Du Shaoqing about Xuanwumen, and he advised me not to just look at the surface, everyone has it He also said that you had no choice but to kill your uncle and third uncle.

Now it seems that he misunderstood your character.

It is our extravagant hope that there is no family affection in the heavenly family. "

Li Er's face was painful and ferocious, and he snorted coldly: "Xuanwumen? How old was he when he was in Xuanwumen? Is he qualified to talk about Xuanwumen?"

"Yes, he doesn't seem to be qualified, but since this incident happened, everyone has the right to discuss it. The mouth of the people is better than Fangchuan. You can't stop the mouths of the people in the world.

Erchen, a person who has personally experienced it, dare not say that he knows the truth. He has never seen it, so why did he talk about it?

But I know that the reason why he explained this to me is for our own good. He is maintaining your image and the brotherhood of our generation, and he doesn't want the brothers of our generation to turn against each other and follow in your footsteps.

It's ridiculous that he made a mistake, and he also said that you will teach me this lesson when you pass on the throne.

Hehe, the biggest miscalculation of the number one talented man in the Tang Dynasty was believing that the emperor had family affection! "

"Bastard!" Li Eryi slapped Li Chengqian on the face, his whole body was trembling, and immediately felt a rush in his head, a sudden spin, and then he fell backwards.

Li Chengqian supported him and put him on the dragon chair. After a stick of incense, Li Er gradually calmed down, his face pale as if he had suffered from a serious illness.

"Father got a headache when he was furious. This is your old problem. If it wasn't for your brother-in-law's diligent treatment and care for you and your mother these years, this headache might have killed you.

Now you are going to kill your brother-in-law and his family, what if you get sick again in the future? "Not only did Li Chengqian not call the imperial doctor, but he just sat by and watched.

But Li Er was not as angry and strong as before, and became extremely calm.

After a long silence, he looked at his son with clear eyes, and said earnestly: "I know what you said is right, and I am grateful and happy to Du Shaoqing in my heart.

I even thought for a moment, how good it would be if Du Shaoqing was my son, so that I wouldn't have to worry about painstaking preparations, how good it would be to hand over the country directly to him in the future?

It's a pity that his surname is not Li, and I'm not only your father, I'm also the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. In this position, I can't help myself. "

"My brother-in-law also said this, the two of you are not considered old, you should be bosom friends.

Since I am not in this position, I may not be able to understand your involuntary feelings.

However, I have my own views on this matter. It is true that there are various inexplicable crises and uncertainties as you said, but all these have always been there, and it will not be resolved forever just because you killed a Du Shaoqing. "Li Chengqian replied calmly, rebutting with reason and evidence.

Li Er did not argue, but changed the subject, "Du Shaoqing is indeed extremely smart. A person who has never seen Xuanwumen can tell the pros and cons of Xuanwumen in one word. Anyone will be afraid."

"So, when you killed your uncle and third uncle, did you really have other secrets?" Li Chengqian asked in surprise.

Recalling the bloody Xuanwu Gate, it was the eternal pain buried deep in Li Er's heart, the knot that made him unable to sleep all day long for 20 years.

"Back then, your grandfather closed the door and said that you and I would share the Great Tang equally with your uncle. One person and half of the land will be ruled, but unfortunately things backfired in the end."

At that time, Li Chengqian was eight years old, and he vaguely knew some news, "Uncle is the crown prince, and half of your military exploits were won by you. Can, why didn't it work out in the end?"

Li Er shook his head and said with emotion: "How can it be so simple?

Half of the plan to rule the land is sincere, and the other half is also an excuse of the emperor's mind. After all, your grandfather had only been the emperor for nine years at that time. Although he was already 60 years old, he was still in good spirits and had no intention of abdicating.

However, the matter of Xuanwu Sect was not in his expectation, even something he had always wanted to avoid but could not avoid. "

"How do you say that? Is there anyone who can't force you?" Li Chengqian asked.

Li Er's eyes brightened, and he sneered, "Persecution?

Didn't someone force it?

I joined the army when I was young, and fought for more than ten years. I fought in the north and south, and those who followed me were all loyal ministers and generals with great military achievements, and most of them came from poor backgrounds.

Most of the people who support your uncle are of noble origin, and your uncle rarely leads the army, but he manages the money and grains of the Great Tang Dynasty very well, but the price he pays is a bit high. In the most difficult time, he even looked at Shandong with five surnames and seven The family has established an IOU.

In this way, you will understand that the final battle for the throne is no longer just a dispute between the two of us behind closed doors.

Whoever takes the position can drive the prosperity and wealth of the supporters behind him, on the contrary, all previous efforts will be wasted or even their heads will be moved. This has been the case since ancient times. "

"But it wasn't like this later. You came to power, so you don't use the martial arts under your uncle? Wei Zheng, the Xue brothers, etc., do you have to use knives?

I vaguely remember that my uncle loved me very much when I was young, and the relationship between our two families is very good. The Xuanwu Gate was like an unexpected incident. I still don’t understand it. "Li Chengqian was puzzled.

Mentioning this, Li Er couldn't help being aroused with hatred and anger, "Of course not!

When you were an eight-year-old prince, you knew how to think about brotherhood. What's more, your uncle and third uncle and I are siblings. We grew up with our father traveling around since we were young. Our brotherhood is deeper than yours. How can we draw a sword? facing each other?

It was calculated by others. "

"Scheming? Who is so bold to plot against the Crown Prince and the King of Qin? Five surnames and seven kings?" Li Chengqian exclaimed.

"It's not just them, all the people who are staring at the throne, the Wu Qunchen behind me expect me to ascend to the throne as soon as possible, even if they take power by force, they all hate the crown prince Jiancheng, and they all do things by unscrupulous means, not like me, I also know that the other party is my brother.

In the same way, the people behind your uncle also want to get rid of me quickly, saying that my meritorious deeds will become a disaster sooner or later, and they are also plotting to mutiny and kill me.

In the final analysis, their so-called loyalty is only for their own future status and wealth. No one cares about the life and death of our brothers in the Li family. Our brothers are all victims of politics. "
