Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 83 I hope you and I encourage each other [Thanks to Nicholas Qin for the reward]

No one knew exactly what Dugu Zhen had talked with Li Yuan, and Li Zhiyun only received a report from the mansion the next day.Li Yuan ordered Sheng Yanshi and Shi Wanbao to arrest the rebel Li Mi, which specifically mentioned the need to protect Tang Dynasty officials.

Based on this, Li Zhiyun deduced that Dugu Zhen should have used tricks to get Lao Li to give in.As for what price Dugu Zhen paid, Li Zhiyun didn't know.

"It's definitely not coercion." Du Ruhui judged: "There is nothing that makes His Majesty feel more like Dou Wei's threat."

Are there thirty-seven families in Guanlong?

"Then what kind of sincerity do you think Dugu Zhen showed?" Li Zhiyun rubbed the teacup.

In this kind of thing, either Lao Li squeezed his nose to give in, or Dugu Zhen cut his flesh, anyway, one party will suffer.Looking at Lao Li's performance, Li Zhiyun knew that this time Lao Li would not scatter eagles when he saw the rabbit, and the Dugu family would not pay the price, so it might not be so easy to be kind.

Du Ruhui thought for a while, then shook his head, "This subordinate can't figure it out, this is something the sage has planned for a long time, and what the Dugu family brought out may not be that simple."

Li Zhiyun agreed with this statement. If the Dugu family hadn't suffered massive bleeding, Lao Li would not have given in so easily.

"Keming, after this incident, do you think Guan Long will feel disobedient?"

"No." Du Ruhui affirmed: "Your Majesty, although the Saint's plan this time... um, caused heavy losses to the Dugu family, but after all, it was only aimed at the Dugu family, and the rest of the Guanlong family did not suffer any setbacks. Moreover, the saint is what they wanted. It will not be repeated like this. But it must be true that the Dugu family is dissatisfied."

"Dissatisfaction is likely to turn into disobedience." Li Zhiyun said meaningfully.

Du Ruhui smiled wryly, and said: "Actually, it is understandable for a sage to do this. Guan Long occupies three seats in the Political Affairs Hall. With the addition of Xiao Yu, the son-in-law of the Dugu family, the sage will inevitably feel that Guan Long is too powerful to suppress him. No surprise."

"But now is the first year of Wude, the world is in chaos, but we are at odds, so it's inappropriate."

"Fortunately, the sage only targeted the Dugu family this time, and did not involve the entire Guanlong family, so there is still room for change." Du Ruhui said: "Moreover, this move will also allow the sage to further control the court. In this way, many things There is no need to restrict the Guanlong family."

Li Zhiyun nodded, and then smiled wryly: "This time, I was a fool for discussing matters in Wude Hall."

"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry. People have to grow. The sage governs all directions in accordance with the will of God. I believe that the old man will be very willing to see the King grow up step by step."

Hearing this, Li Zhiyun and Du Ruhui looked at each other and smiled.

"You guessed right, the prince really chose to support the father, but from my point of view, the prince did not express his position at the beginning, but he had no choice but to support the father under Liu Wenjing's signal."

Du Ruhui pondered: "This shows that the crown prince is not satisfied with the existing talents in the East Palace, he is still planning for the support of the Guanlong family."

"Do you think he can succeed?" Li Zhiyun took a sip of tea.

"That depends on what conditions the crown prince can offer to the Guanlong family, or how the crown prince will balance the balance between the Eastern Palace factions."

"Wei Ting grew up with the prince since he was a child. Wang Gui, Zheng Yuanxuan and others followed the prince earlier, and now they occupy various important positions in the East Palace. At this time, people from Guanlong want to intervene, and it may be difficult." Li Zhiyun smiled lightly.

"The king said so."

Li Zhiyun asked: "Xue Shou, how did you persuade me?"

Because of what happened last time, Li Zhiyun is now estranged from Xue Shou, and has not told him many secrets.

Due to the current situation of lack of talents, Li Zhiyun does not intend to give up Xue Shou.It's just that what he's planning is not trivial, and ordinary people don't dare to believe it.

Du Ruhui asked back: "Your Majesty, do you think Xue Shou is a smart person?"

"of course."

"Then there is no need to persuade the king. As long as the king does something, he will naturally understand. No matter what choice he makes at that time, it will be a matter of course."

Li Zhiyun pinched his brows and sighed: "Xue Shou, Yuan Jing, Chu Liang, Chu Suiliang, these people are all talented, but I can't be honest with each other, it's a pity."

"You don't have to be like this, it will take a hundred kalpas for a carp to leap over the dragon's gate."

Li Zhiyun stood up and walked to the window.Under the gazebo in the courtyard, Goddess Yang is embroidering.

"Keming, do you think this king can really succeed?" Li Zhiyun murmured, "This king is neither a son nor a descendant, and he has no support from others. Can he really succeed?"

What happened in Wude Hall today had a great impact on him. He was deeply shocked by the power of the aristocratic family to challenge the imperial power head-on.

Thirty-seven families in Guanlong, but the light words made Lao Li silent for a long time.If Dugu Zhen hadn't taken the initiative to take a step back later, no one would have known what the situation would have turned out in the end.

The most important thing is that the current him can't get into the eyes of those two forces at all.

Du Ruhui walked up to Li Zhiyun's side, and said in a low voice: "Since Your Majesty has decided to take this path, you must never give up, or you will suffer from it. At present, the battle between the Crown Prince and the King of Qin has gradually emerged. As long as the sage Continue to let the King of Qin lead the army to conquer the Quartet, and one day, the crown prince and the King of Qin will be in a situation of life and death."

"What this subordinate means is that if the king doesn't move, it's fine, and if he moves, he will decide the situation."

"But if the Crown Prince and the King of Qin win me over, what should I do?"

The Prince's power in the army may be weaker than that of the King of Qin, but in court, the Prince is definitely stronger than the King of Qin, and because he is afraid of the nobles in Guanlong, Lao Li will definitely support the Prince against Dou Wei and others.

Of course Li Zhiyun knew that Li Shimin had won the complete victory in history, but now it is the first year of Wude, and there are still nine years before that incident.

Nine years!

With Li Jiancheng's power in the court, as long as he takes refuge in Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng will teach him to be a man.

Moreover, don't forget that there is also Li Yuanji, a vicious brother.

This man dares to do anything.

But if you want him to go through life and death for Li Shimin, he will go out of his way.Ask yourself, Li Zhiyun is not willing to make wedding dresses for others.

Du Ruhui said: "Your Majesty only needs to remember four words."

"Which four words?"

"Loyal to the king and loyal to the father."

Li Zhiyun thought for a moment, then said: "You let me follow the father, impartial?"

"That's right." Du Ruhui continued: "In the chaos of the Lu Dynasty in the former Han Dynasty, the nobles of the Han family supported the Dai Wang to ascend the throne. Is it really because of the Dai Wang Xian? No. In terms of credit, it should belong to Qi Wang Xiang, but Han Jia Xungui refused to make Liu Xiang emperor on the pretext that Liu Xiang's uncle Sijun was arrogant."

Li Zhiyun knew about this period of history, so he said, "We didn't establish Liu Xiang, that's because the nobles of the Han family thought it would be better to control Wang Heng."

"That's right." Du Ruhui said meaningfully, "But don't you know what kind of person Emperor Taizong Xiaowen is?"

Speaking of this, Li Zhiyun understood, and he smiled slightly, "You are right, sometimes you really want to be a fool."

Of course, Li Zhiyun's situation is very different from that of Emperor Hanwen.What Du Ruhui meant was to let him hide his strength and bide his time.

He walked to the case and splashed ink.

"However, the situation of this king is different from that of Emperor Han Wen after all, and Keming needs to remind him a lot in the future."

Du Ruhui cupped his hands and said, "This subordinate obeys."

"Keming, without you assisting me, I really don't know what to do. How can you ask me to thank you?" Li Zhiyun wrote with his head down.

Du Ruhui smiled, and said: "Don't lie to your majesty, the Jingzhao Du family has a great family and a great business, and there is never a shortage of Du Ruhui."

Pen stop.

Li Zhiyun raised his head and said softly: "One day, you, Du Ruhui, will become an indispensable person in the Jingzhao Du family."

He pointed at the paper on the case, and said: "Keming, this is a gift from the king, and it is also a warning to myself. I hope you and I will encourage each other."

Du Ruhui walked over, and the content on the paper came into view vividly.

Those who have the will, things will be accomplished, the boat will be broken, and the hundred and two Qinguan will eventually belong to Chu.

Those who work hard, live up to the sky, and try their hard work, three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu.

At this moment, Du Ruhui knew that his choice was correct.Not because of these two sentences, but because of King Chu's decision on the future.

And, forbearance!
