Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 31 Multiple Choice Questions

If he takes refuge in Li Shimin, will he treat himself well?

Li Zhiyun killed the idea as soon as it came up.

He didn't have the concept of 'loyalty' in his mind. He might be able to live well for a while with Li Shimin, but his own destiny was in the hands of others, which made it difficult for him to accept.

Especially, he still has a chance to fight now.

After staying and putting on a coat, Li Zhiyun walked into the yard and looked at the bright moon.The breeze caressed his cheeks, calming his hot heart.

Thinking about things in his heart, Li Zhiyun didn't feel sleepy, so he got up in the yard, walked across the veranda, and walked quietly.

At this time, if he can still deal with it calmly, then he is really heartless.

The multiple-choice questions have always been there, but he deliberately avoided them and never had a choice.Now, the dream reminded him that it was time to make a choice.

Moreover, the struggle for succession did not take place after the extermination of Wang Shichong, but existed from the very beginning!

With his current performance, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin will definitely use him as a bargaining chip to increase their power, so as to win over.

Can he refuse?
"Tired!" he sighed.

The two voices sounded at the same time, which surprised Li Zhiyun.

"Who!"

At this time, Li Zhiyun realized that he had walked to the side courtyard unknowingly.This is the place where the affairs of the Chu palace are discussed, and it is usually used for the office of the officials of the Chu palace.

Beside him, candles were lit in the house, and there were faint figures flickering on the window cloth.

"Is that the king?" Du Ruhui's voice sounded in the room.

"Keming?" Li Zhiyun was stunned, looked up at the sky, and thought to himself, what time is it, why hasn't Du Ruhui gone back.

At this time, Du Ruhui had already opened the door and walked out.

"Meet the king."

"You and I match each other's hearts, so don't be too polite." Li Zhiyun habitually said nasty words.

Du Ruhui was immune to Li Zhiyun's nasty words. When he was 'invited' by Li Zhiyun to come to work in the Chu palace, he often heard Li Zhiyun's words that made people tremble.

"You didn't go back today?" Li Zhiyun asked.

"Yes, because the king has sealed the king of Chu, there are still many matters that have not been dealt with. Beiguan and Xue Shou and Xue Yuanjing have agreed to deal with them as soon as possible."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Du Ruhui asked, "Your Majesty has something on your mind?"

"Why do you ask?"

"The king was full of alcohol when he came back, so he should have a good rest, but the king didn't rest. If it wasn't for something on his mind, it wouldn't be like this."

Such a sensitive sense of smell, is this the 'Du Duan'?

"Today, the royal father ordered a marriage for me, I don't know if it's a joy or a worry." Li Zhiyun sighed slightly.

It should be a mixed blessing, Li Zhiyun is very confused.The future wife is the Yang family, but unfortunately, the second brother is Li Shimin.

"Is the king talking about Yang's daughter?" Du Ruhui asked.

"you know?"

"Well, I heard it from Li Zhen."

Li Zhen, this big mouth, must teach him a good lesson when he has the opportunity.Li Zhiyun thought secretly in his heart, and then he laughed at himself again, feeling that he could really think blindly.

Du Ruhui thought that Li Zhiyun's smile was lamenting that he was being used as a tool for marriage, so he explained: "Your Majesty, in fact, the sage did this to win over all forces."

Ok?
Li Zhiyun was puzzled, "What does Keming mean by this?"

Du Ruhui explained: "Your Majesty, didn't you find out that the Crown Princess was born in the Zheng family of Xingyang, Princess Qin was from the Changsun family in Guanlong, the future Princess Qi was born in the Jiangzuo clan, and the Princess Chu was a daughter of the former clan. Your Majesty, The saint is trying to win over all forces."

Having said that, Li Zhiyun was taken aback, and he remembered that it really happened like this.

Use the marriage of four sons to establish connections with various forces.Crown Princess Zheng Guanyin and Qin Wangfei's Changsun Clan are obviously establishing contact with the Shandong clan and Guanlong clan, and the future Princess Xiao of Qi and Concubine Yang of Chu also represent a clan power.

Lanling Xiao family, Jiang Zuo family.The Yang clan of the former dynasty represented the remnants of the former Sui dynasty.

Lao Li wants to have everything.

Thinking of this, Li Zhiyun suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.Because the power behind Li Jiancheng's wife seems to be higher than him, only the power represented by his future wife seems to be drawn by old Li Shishe.

Just like, Lao Li regards himself as a tool person to appease and win over former Sui old ministers.

Is this the difference.

Li Zhiyun thought secretly in his heart.

Du Ruhui continued: "So, Your Majesty must not spoil the saint's plan."

Li Zhiyun wanted to laugh a little, why did he have a bad plan, he was just uncomfortable.Not for the future wife, but for the manipulative fate.

"Kemin, you're right."

Right, I'm just analyzing it.Du Ruhui was dumbfounded, but he didn't say anything.

Li Zhiyun suddenly said: "Ke Ming, you have never solved this king like this before."

Du Ruhui smiled and said humorously: "Your Majesty gives you so much money every month, and your subordinates can't just eat and not work."

Hearing this, Li Zhiyun couldn't help laughing.

"Your Majesty, when is the wedding scheduled?"

"Not long after the father ascended the throne, there are many things, and it is temporarily set at the end of the year."

Du Ruhui said thoughtfully: "So, my subordinates, Xue Shou and Yuan Jing have time to prepare for the king."

"It's okay, there will be someone in the palace to help, you don't need to work hard."

In the past, although Du Ruhui worked in the Chu palace, he was probably the kind of person who clocked in and went to get off work. If you don’t ask him, he would rarely participate in the analysis of the matter.

This time, the distance between him and Li Zhiyun has narrowed a lot.

The two talked a lot, and finally, Li Zhiyun suddenly said, "Ke Ming, what do you think of King Qin."

Not addressing the second brother immediately made Du Ruhui's heart stunned.

"Why does the king ask that?"

Li Zhiyun glanced at him, knowing that he was still a little too hasty, so he patted him on the shoulder, shook his head and said nothing.

When the people of Chang'an heard about the marriage between the King of Qi and the King of Chu, the people in Chang'an were most likely to have fun.There are many people who feel sorry for Xiao Yu's granddaughter, who wants to marry the beast of King Qi.Li Shimin knows how many animals Li Yuanji has.

Since he came to Chang'an, Li Yuanji has often caused trouble in Chang'an, not flirting with women today, or going on a rampage with drinking and hunting tomorrow.As the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, Li Shimin warned and persuaded many times, but the effect was not great. Li Yuanji still went his own way.

The reason why the relationship between Li Yuanji and Li Shimin is getting worse and worse is because of the conflict between their words and deeds as their identities improve.

Li Shimin wanted to treat the people kindly, but Li Yuanji never treated the people as human beings.This alone prevents them from coexisting in harmony.

Moreover, Li Yuanji has always been very disgusted with Li Shimin's nagging remarks, and always felt that the second brother was deliberately targeting himself.

Therefore, during the rebellious period of the young man, the more he fought against him, the more rebellious he became.

Li Shimin did not allow Li Yuanji to rob the girl of the people, but Li Yuanji did so. Li Shimin was angry and told Li Yuan about the matter, and then Lao Li caught Li Yuanji and reprimanded him.

In this way, Li Yuanji became more and more unhappy with Li Shimin.

Therefore, he gradually let his name in Taiyuan resound in Chang'an.
