Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 1155
In fact, Li Qinzai did not approve of Li Xian's participation in the fight for reserves.

His own disciple, Li Qinzai, knew how important he was. With Li Xian's current age, qualifications, moral character, and connections in the court, none of them had an advantage.

Even Li Xian admitted that his only advantage was Li Qinzai, the teacher.

So, a teacher with weight can decide whether he can be the crown prince?
Isn't this noisy?

"Besides my teacher, where do you think you are better than Li Xian?" Li Qinzai asked again.

Li Xian thought for a long time, then sighed dully: "The disciple seems to be inferior to him."

"You know you are not as good as him, but you want to be the crown prince, then your purpose is not for the great Tang Sheji and thousands of people, but for your personal desire for power." Li Qinzai said sharply.

Li Xian's face immediately flushed red.

As if the last fig leaf was torn off by the street, Li Xian found that his privacy and shady desires were all exposed to the world.

"Sir, I want to be the crown prince because I want to benefit the country and the people. I may have personal desires, but I can't deny my public loyalty." Li Xian said unconvinced.

Li Qinzai nodded: "Well, of course it cannot be denied. If you successfully become the crown prince and succeed your father in the end, I am also willing to believe that you are a good emperor, at least I think so in my heart."

"Not only do you think so in your heart, but disciples will also do the same. To expand the territory and benefit the people, disciples are obliged to do so." Li Xian said emphatically.

Li Qinzai smiled: "Before getting power, anyone would make such great ambitions of justice, but once you get power, can you guarantee that you will still think so?"

"After tasting the delicacy of power, you will be addicted to it. At that time, you racked your brains to think about how to balance the court situation, how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, how to fight wits and courage with courtiers, and how to control all the power in the world. Concentrate in your own hands..."

"Don't rush to deny it, you will be like this. Anyone who sits in that position will be like this, including your father. Even if you really want to do something for the people of the world, you must first settle the courtiers, otherwise your imperial decree will come out. If there is no palace, the people below will also obey and obey."

"As for the matter of settling courtiers, some emperors spend their whole lives doing it, and even do it in a mess."

Li Xian said with a cold face: "What's the difficulty in settling the courtiers? If I have the power, those who don't obey my orders will be expelled or killed. For such a simple matter, who would spend a lifetime fighting wits and courage with them."

Li Qinzai sneered: "You have an elder, well, he is your uncle. His name is Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian said a word before his death, 'I am the son of heaven, and I should do what I want. If there are remonstrances, I will kill them. Is it possible to kill 500 people?'"

"Haha, what you said just now is similar to that of your elder. They are all the same bastard. With your kind of heart, you are really suitable to be a prince, can you really be a good emperor?"

Startled, Li Xian involuntarily straightened his body and sat upright.

"Sir, this disciple was a little impulsive just now, and he did say some stupid things. Don't blame me, sir." Li Xian apologized sincerely.

Li Qinzai hummed: "I don't blame you, but to tell you the truth, I won't fight for your reserve. If you can't figure it out and think I'm too ruthless, it doesn't matter. You and I will terminate the teacher-student relationship."

Li Xian was shocked, and his expression suddenly became flustered: "Sir, I know I was wrong, and I will never mention the matter of fighting for the reserve again. Please, sir, don't push the disciple out of the door!"

After speaking, Li Xian got up, and hesitantly bowed down in front of Li Qinzai.

Li Qinzai smiled and said, "You don't want to fight for the heir? Prince of the East Palace, what a glorious position, the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty, do you really want it?"

Li Xian hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "I want it, but I care more about the relationship between teacher and student. If I have to choose one of the two, I am willing to give up the East Palace and study under the teacher's school from now on."

Li Qinzai nodded with a smile, and said gratifiedly: "You say it as if you are very knowledgeable. You are obviously a scumbag. What are you talking about studying knowledge? If you really don't want to compete, you can hang around under my family from now on and be a full-fledged vassal king." good."

Li Xian smiled wryly, "Sir, why didn't you hurt your mouth when you were injured..."

Li Qinzai sneered, rebel, when the school starts, you will experience the familiar feeling of being beaten as you wish.

He knew that Li Xian was telling the truth, and it should be from his heart. Who wouldn't want power?But everyone's choice is different.

Li Xian is considered to be a pure heart, he made a choice between power and affection regardless of the pros and cons.

Even though he was still unwilling, even though he was still uneasy, he finally gave up.

Li Qinzai didn't help Li Xian, not because he was afraid of trouble, but because the time hadn't come yet, and at the same time, Li Xiande didn't cooperate.

Li Xian in history finally became the emperor as he wished, um, it was the sad six emperors.

Today's history may be different, but Li Xian is still not good enough to control the position of the East Palace. Besides, it is really taboo for Li Qinzai to meddle in the battle for the heir apparent.

What the emperor's family taboos the most is that the foreign ministers don't know their own weight, think they are important, and foolishly get involved, forming cliques and cultivating party members.

Little did he know that the emperor hated this kind of person the most. Once he gets involved, the emperor will lock you in, and he will kill you. It's just the difference between killing early and killing late.

Li Qinzai would never make such a mistake.

Li Xian is still young, if you tell him how dangerous it is to compete for reserves, he probably won't understand.

As long as you participate in it, the failed counselors will switch to other camps at worst. As long as you are thick-skinned and subdued quickly enough, you can still keep your life safe.

But the prince who failed to fight for the heirloom was really registered as the king of hell by the brother who succeeded.

As soon as the father kicked his legs and the crown prince ascended the throne, the first one to take out the flag to sacrifice was the opponent who failed in the battle for the crown.

"You returned to Chang'an with me that day. Let me ask you, do you know the news that the prince is seriously ill?" Li Qinzai asked suddenly.

Li Xian was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "The disciple knew about it as soon as he returned to Chang'an, that's why the counselors of the palace will push the disciple to compete for the crown."

Li Qinzai said slowly: "The prince is your elder brother of the same father and mother. He is seriously ill. Have you visited him in the East Palace?"

Li Xian was taken aback for another moment, then lowered his head in shame.

Knowing the answer, Li Qinzai shook his head and sighed, "You said you would be a good prince, a good emperor, but you are so indifferent to basic family ties. Do you really think you are worthy of being a prince?"

The words were ugly, Li Xian felt ashamed, but he still blushed and bowed his head and said: "The disciple has been blinded by the desire for power these days, it is the fault of the disciple, now the disciple understands, I will go to the East Palace to visit my brother after a while. "

Li Qinzai hummed, and said: "By the way, tell Li Sujie that the two princesses of Xuancheng Yiyang and all the little bastards will gather outside Yanping Gate in three days and go to Ganjing Village together."

Li Xian was stunned, and he didn't turn his mind for a moment: "What are you doing?"

When speaking, the back of Li Xian's head happened to be within reach of Li Qinzai.

This position stands too handsomely.

Li Qinzai couldn't help but slapped Li Xian on the back of the head: "School is back, you bastard! Now Chang'an City is very hot, you little bastards don't stay away, aren't you afraid of being involved in right and wrong?"
