From Kowloon's Inheritance

Chapter 280 Meeting the Eldest Prince for the First Time

Heaven and humans are very powerful, but the number of heaven and humans is too small, and they are scruples about each other, so they cannot easily attack.

Ji Xuewei said: "Who has the most hope to become the crown prince?"

"Tell me, why didn't the emperor appoint a crown prince?" Instead of answering Ji Xuewei's question, Li Mu asked another question.

"why?"

Ji Xuewei was also silent.

"On the surface, it seems that the eldest prince is unfilial and was abolished as the crown prince, but the fundamental reason is not!" Li Mu said indifferently: "The fundamental reason is that there are no two days in the sky, and there are no two monarchs in the country. Even if it is only the crown prince, it is just a backup. But the emperor still can't tolerate it!"

Qin Shihuang couldn't tolerate Fusu, Han Wudi couldn't tolerate the prince, Li Shimin couldn't tolerate Li Chengqian, Kangxi couldn't tolerate the prince, and thanks to Zhu Biao's early death, otherwise Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't tolerate him either.

Everything in the world can be shared, only wives and power cannot be shared.

Why did those great emperors kill the heroes, or let the heroes retire and go home? The essence is that they are unwilling to share power.As for abolishing the prince, it is essentially the same as killing heroes.The emperor and his ministers are the relationship between the emperor and the minister; the emperor and the prince are also the relationship between the emperor and the minister.Many princes thought they were the crown prince, that is, the emperor, at the same level as the emperor, so they were cheated to death.

In the eyes of those talented and general emperors, they are the monarchs and ministers first, and the father and son second.If the power is gone, there is really no power; the son is dead, and there are several more.

It is said that there is a novel that with the help of the protagonist, Li Chengqian no longer rebelled, became the crown prince, and then became the emperor.

In fact, it is impossible.

Even if Li Chengqian did not rebel, he would be abolished for other reasons.

The wolf wants to eat the lamb, whether the lamb drinks the upstream water or the downstream water, or whether it drinks water or not, it is all the same!
"The emperor doesn't need a prince. The prince will threaten the emperor's power. Maybe when the emperor is seriously ill or is about to die, he will choose a relatively young and weak prince. Let's be the prince!" Li Mu said.

"A relatively young, relatively weak prince!"

Ji Xuewei was puzzled.

"Choosing a prince and marrying a wife are actually a concept. A strong man likes a weak woman, and a weak woman likes a strong man!" Li Mu said: "The fourth and eighth are the first to be eliminated because they are too capable. A weak and young Young prince, most likely!"

"Why?" Ji Xuewei asked puzzled.

"The powerful prince has already been beaten by the emperor; why would he choose the strong fourth and eighth sons? Isn't this creating trouble for himself!" Li Mu said: "Many princes who seem to be the most promising are actually the least hopeful!"

Qin Shihuang chose the young and weak eighteenth son Hu Hai, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty chose the young and weak Liu Fuling, Li Shimin chose the young and weak old ten Li Zhi, Zhu Yuanzhang chose the young and weak Zhu Yunqi, and Kangxi seemed to choose the young And the weaker old fourteen.

"That's the fourth child, the eighth child, there is no hope!" Ji Xuewei said: "On the contrary, the latter ones have some hope!"

"This is the boss' invitation card!" Ji Xuewei said, taking out an invitation card, which was recently inviting Li Mu to a banquet.

Li Mu took a rough look and said, "Reject!"

"Refusal is offending!" Ji Xuewei said.

"Living in the world, you always have to offend people!" Li Mu said lightly.

Ji Xuewei said: "Let's see each other, otherwise it's hard to say!"

"Alright!" Li Mu nodded.

"It's in the Mingyue Building in the past!" Ji Xuewei said, "You used to go there often!"

"So it's there!"

Li Mu said.

It seems to think of the old days eight or nine years ago, when he had just won the test, it was the proud moment.

…………

Ningxing 39 years, March.

The weather in March seems to be slightly chilly.In another month, it will be the time of thawing, and by then, it will be the time for farmers to plant the land.

In three days' time, it will be the Spring Festival Ceremony.

The Spring Festival Hall is mainly dedicated to worshiping the god of land and the god of spring.

This world is a world of high martial arts, and it can also be an agricultural society. Food production is limited. The emperors of all dynasties have attached great importance to spring plowing. On March [-], the emperor will lead all civil and military officials to perform sacrifices in the wild.

At night, Liuli Street became lively, brightly lit, brothels opened one after another, with gorgeous lighting decorations, luxurious furnishings, rich local tyrants, elegant literati, and various nobles, all came here to find fun.

Mingyue Tower, a famous brothel on Liuli Street, has elegant services and countless literati gather here.

On the third floor of Mingyue Tower, the eldest prince was looking at the night in the distance, and seemed to have fallen into silence.

"Retire, will you come?" the First Prince said.

Suddenly, I saw a man walking on the street, his footsteps were flickering, and his speed was very fast, he was already approaching Mingyue Tower.He didn't ride a horse or a carriage, so he came on foot.

"he came!"

A gleam of joy flashed in the eldest prince's eyes.

As soon as my heart moved, I wanted to greet him in person, but I still suppressed the restlessness in my heart and waited.

After a long time, Li Mu went up to the restaurant, and was greeted by servants in person. Li Mu reached the third floor, in an attic.

The door opened and Li Mu entered.

"Greetings to the First Prince!" What caught my eye was a mighty man, with extraordinary bearing, martial and handsome, like a born emperor, but he was vaguely familiar, but he couldn't seem to remember it.

"Retire, it's been good recently!"

The First Prince said.

"You are brother Qingshan!" Li Mu seemed to think of something.

"It's me!" said the First Prince.

"You are actually the eldest prince!" Li Mu was a little stunned.

"It's me!" said the First Prince.

"Somewhat unexpected!" Li Mu sighed.

Thinking back to nine years ago, when he was still a scholar and a prostitute, he made friends with a man named Zhao Mi, whose name was Qingshan.

They are Jinshi in the same examination.

Then, have feelings for each other, talk about poetry, drink together, and pick up girls together.

They have a good relationship with each other.

It's a pity that Li Mu left the capital in order to avoid Kowloon from seizing the heir, and went to the south of the Yangtze River to serve as the county magistrate, so the relationship was broken.

This time, they were almost unrecognizable when they met.

"Retire, how are you doing recently?" the First Prince asked.

"Of course it's very good. Recently, I got engaged to Princess Xuewei, and I also got engaged to Princess Wuying. I enjoy the blessings of Qiren. I've reached the pinnacle of my life. I don't need to work hard anymore. I can eat as much as I want!" Li Mu said with a smile, " Actually, I want to thank Qingshan, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have gone to Jiangnan back then, but to a high-class county!"

Seeing Brother Qingshan again, I gradually understood many things that I didn't understand.

Back then, when Li Mu left the capital, only Qingshan saw him off.

As for the other students, they are all the future.

In the eyes of those classmates, Li Mu left the capital and abandoned his position as an editor of the Hanlin Academy, which was self-willed and depraved.

It is human nature to step on the low and hold the high!

Counties are also divided into levels, low-level counties, medium-level counties, and high-level counties.

Originally, it was normal for Li Mu to go to a low-grade county; but he went to a high-grade county instead.

And when they went to Yin County and Ningbo again, they were all taken care of by Wu Yong.

I didn't quite understand it in the past, but now I understand that it is he who operates everything.

To the First Prince, it was just a casual remark, but it was of great help to him.
