Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 108 Li Shimin's Game of Chess
Li Ji's words made Qin Tian very unhappy.

I don't want to go to places like Longkou County, so why is Li Shimin not even willing to help?

I helped him for nothing.

But Qin Shubao knew Li Ji better after all, after hearing this, he guessed that Li Ji's words had a reason.

"My lord, what's the matter?"

Li Ji said: "This is not a place for conversation, let's go to the living room to chat."

When the three of them arrived in the living room, Qin Tian looked at Li Ji and felt very strange. When did they need to be so mysterious?
"My lord, tell me."

Li Ji nodded: "Both of you are trustworthy people, so I will explain some things clearly. Now the emperor favors the prince, protects the prince in everything, and suppresses His Royal Highness King Qin everywhere. If this continues, we can only I'm afraid we will have a hard time."

After Li Ji finished speaking, he glanced at Qin Shubao and Qin Tian, ​​and seeing that they looked the same, he continued: "Mr. Yi, we are brothers who came down from Wagang Village together. There are some things Let me just say it clearly, His Royal Highness King Qin wants to fight for the unification, and our support is indispensable."

Hearing this, Qin Shubao and Qin Tian's reactions were still normal. Qin Shubao is not an idiot, how could he not understand Li Shimin's ambition to fight for the throne?

As for Qin Tian, ​​this is what he knows best, and Li Ji doesn't need to say that he knows it all.

"My lord wants to fight for the throne, I have no objection." Qin Shubao expressed his opinion.

Li Ji said: "Under the current situation, it is impossible to use normal means. In the end, there must be a hard fight."

"You mean forcing the palace?" Qin Shubao's expression was agitated, and he was shocked for the first time. If Li Shimin became the crown prince and then ascended the throne, he didn't think it would be a problem.

But it would be a bit rebellious to force the palace. Qin Shubao is a bit conservative after all.

Li Ji nodded: "Yes, if the situation continues like this, this is our only way out."

Qin Shubao's face turned pale: "How can this be done? This is a crime of treason."

Qin Shubao had no choice but to accept this matter, it was too risky to force the palace, and Li Yuan treated him well, he really didn't want to do anything to offend Li Yuan.

Seeing Qin Shubao like this, Li Ji couldn't help sighing, the thing he was most worried about happened.

There are so many subordinates of King Qin Li Shimin, whether it is Yu Chigong, Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, etc., they don't think much about things, and if King Qin wants to force the palace, they will definitely not say anything.

But only this Qin Shubao worried him the most, because Qin Shubao was more like a Confucian general, and if there was a Confucian word in a Confucian general, he was more loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

He was afraid that he would refuse. Of course, Li Ji didn't worry about being betrayed by Qin Shubao when he said it. He still trusted Qin Shubao after being friends for so many years.

Even if he doesn't support it, he will definitely keep his mouth shut.

As for Qin Tian, ​​he really didn't take Qin Tian seriously. For a person who has offended the crown prince, does he have anyone else to rely on?

Li Ji looked at Qin Shubao and wanted to persuade him. At this time, Qin Tian suddenly said: "The loyal father is loyal and patriotic, which is really admirable, but if he is too foolish and loyal, it will be bad. As well as the people of His Royal Highness King Qin, how many of them can be treated well?"

When Qin Tian said this suddenly, Li Ji was taken aback for a moment, he didn't think that Qin Shubao would be difficult to persuade, but Qin Tian didn't need to persuade him, this kid is very good.

It's just that as soon as Qin Tian said something, he was scolded back by Qin Shubao: "Shut up, Shuzi!"

Qin Shubao's expression was serious, obviously angry, this was the first time he was really angry in front of Qin Tian, ​​but Qin Tian didn't really shut up because of this.

"The adoptive father is angry with the child, but the child still wants to say that the child and the prince have confronted before. Just because of a trivial matter, he will never forget it. He always wants to find an opportunity to kill the child. Such a person has no heart. It can be said that the Great Tang is in his hands, how majestic is it? Those people of His Highness King Qin, even you, the adoptive father, how long can they work under him? Don't you have the heart to look at the old brothers, one by one? Go away from yourself?"

Qin Tian's words were sincere, Qin Shubao couldn't teach him a lesson for a while, and he also fought with Li Jiancheng. If it is about ability and mind, Li Jiancheng is really far behind, how could he not understand this?
It's just that he didn't expect Qin Tian to be so good at speaking. Thinking of how he justified the name of pork in the early court, he felt that he should have expected this earlier.

"If the Tang Dynasty is to become a glorious dynasty, and if all nations are to come to the dynasty, there must be a wise and capable monarch. Does Yifu think the current emperor and prince are right?"

Qin Tian looked at Qin Shubao, and continued: "The Holy Majesty is obsessed with women, and he is starting to spend extravagantly. The Crown Prince is not generous enough. These are not enough to make the Great Tang shine in the past dynasties. Only His Royal Highness King Qin has this ability."

Qin Shubao was startled, he wouldn't be surprised if Qin Tian said just now that the crown prince hated him, but he didn't expect Qin Tian to be able to say such words as Wan Guo came to court.

These military generals have been fighting for many years, what they want is not to make the world peaceful, to be majestic in the world, and to come to court from all nations. If they can see this while alive, their entire life of conquest will be worthwhile.

But if all their efforts in the first half of their lives were ruined because of Li Jiancheng, then they would not be reconciled to death.

Qin Shubao was dumbfounded, Li Ji suddenly looked at Qin Tian with admiration, he found that Qin Tian was suddenly a man with the whole world in mind, he had a big picture in his heart, such a young man, really shouldn't be the son of a landlord who came out of Qin's Village.

"What is Yi Guogong's opinion?" After Qin Tian finished speaking, Li Ji asked.

Qin Shubao hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded. He seemed to have no choice.

Seeing Qin Shubao nodding, Qin Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Shubao has made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, but his ranking in Lingyan Pavilion is very low. The reason is that he failed to participate in the Xuanwu Gate Change.

If not, based on his achievements, his status in Datang can be very high.

Now that Qin Shubao has been persuaded, he, Qin Shubao's adoptive son, can rest easy afterward, as long as Qin Shubao is honored, Qin Tian will be honored.

After solving this, Qin Tian finally asked himself what he cared most about.

"Mr. Ying, you said just now that I must go to Longkou County. Why?"

"The capital city of Chang'an, the prince's power is difficult to develop. If he continues to stay in the capital, he is afraid that he will be tricked by the prince one by one, and his life may be lost. In this case, it is better to retreat and preserve his strength. Moreover, even if he succeeds in forcing the palace, there will be a lot of people everywhere." There will also be turmoil, His Royal Highness King Qin intends to spread his people everywhere, secretly develop power, and wait for the opportunity..."

After listening to Li Ji's words, Qin Tian was startled. He had always been curious about why Qin Wang Li Shimin's people were demoted to various places in the sixth year of Wude, but in the ninth year of Wude, they were able to force the palace all at once and succeeded.

It turned out that since the sixth year of Wude, Li Shimin has been playing a game of chess.
