Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 379

After entering the Chengqing Hall and the Sleeping Hall, the emperor waved to the waiting palace servants irritably, signaling them to go down.This situation is not right, Li Chengqian hurriedly poured a cup of hot tea, pretending to be a fool with a cheerful face, waiting for the emperor to speak.

After taking a sip, Li Shimin cast a glance at his son who was pretending to be stupid, and said lightly: "Gao Ming, Gan Yun and the others have already told me about Su Wan. Well, yes, I am old and know what to say." , what should I ask. Wait for Xuanling for a while, and you will know the whole story of your matter!"

After agreeing with "No", Li Chengqian also found a place to do it by himself. It seems that Su Wan is really not aimless.

After a while, Fang Xuanling walked in quickly with a fat belly. The big belly was flickering. It was said that the prime minister's belly could hold a boat. Looking at the person's belly, he knew that the person didn't come in, but the belly came in first. It's really a natural appearance of wealth and honor.

After seeing the ceremony, Lao Fang wiped his sweat and said, "Your Majesty, the people in the front hall have already dispersed. The auxiliary machine and Xuanling broke up unhappy. Things are developing in the opposite direction as you planned?"

kindness?Why, according to the meaning of the words, it was the emperor's intentional arrangement for Changsun Wuji to run out and quarrel with Wei Zheng.Oh, what did I say, what my uncle said was so straightforward and explicit, and he didn't mean to be shy at all!
"Okay, now that everyone is here, I will start. If there is anything missing, Xuanling, please fill it in."

"No, Your Majesty."

After Fang Xuanling's voice fell behind, the emperor raised his head, looked at the roof, and narrated the past in a low voice. From his voice, it could be heard that the emperor was deliberately suppressing his anger.

In the fourth year of Wude, after Li Shimin defeated Dou Jiande, he entered Luoyang.During this period, in addition to appeasing the people of Luoyang City and other public political actions, he also did a very secret thing,

This incident was not until eight years after Li Shimin proclaimed himself emperor, and only Fang Xuanling knew about it in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, which shows the importance of this incident.So here comes the question, what is it that makes Li Shimin so cautious?
It turned out that during his stay in Luoyang, Li Shimin visited a person named Wang Yuanzhi, the abbot of Yuqing Temple in Luoyang.This person was not well-known at the time, but he had acted out of righteousness in the battle of Hulaoguan, so after the war, Li Shimin paid a visit in casual clothes.But it was because of this person's guidance that Li Shimin embarked on the road of seizing the heir.

Wang Yuanzhi's identity is a Taoist priest, but he is not an ordinary Taoist priest. He possesses an ability that ordinary people do not have—foreseeing the future, just as his name indicates.Yuanzhi, as the name suggests, can know what happened a long time later.

Therefore, when Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling went to visit Wang Yuanzhi, after seeing Wang Yuanzhi, Li Shimin did not report his family name, but this expert saw through Li Shimin's real identity at a glance, and said: "There is a saint here, Could it be the King of Qin?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin was taken aback, thinking that this expert really deserved his reputation, so he told the truth and asked Wang Yuanzhi a question.He wanted to ask this old man who could predict the future about his future fate. After all, he was the vassal king who led the army. Who knew that after winning the world, the emperor's father would be a dead dog.

After listening to Li Shimin's question, Wang Yuanzhi's answer hit the most sensitive and secret corner of Li Shimin's heart like a bolt of lightning, and illuminated it like daylight.Wang Yuanzhi said: "Those who are about to become the Taiping Emperor must cherish themselves."

That's right, this answer is exactly what Li Shimin expected.In fact, from the day when Jinyang raised troops, along the way, Li Shimin fought north and south, and made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty. After the suppression of Dou Jiande and Wang Shichong, Li Shimin's achievements were unmatched in the entire Tang Dynasty. The more and more credit he has made, the more and more Li Shimin asks, and the only thing that can satisfy him is the shining golden throne under his emperor's butt.

Therefore, the purpose of Li Shimin's visit to Wang Yuanzhi is self-evident.To be precise, he wants to find a clear political direction for his future goals.

Although this was the answer Li Shimin had been looking forward to for a long time, when he suddenly heard the word "Son of Heaven", a layer of cold sweat broke out on Li Shimin's forehead involuntarily.One must know that at that time, he was only a vassal king, coveting the position of the emperor as a vassal king. Once the news got out, he would lose his official position at the slightest, and at worst, his life would be lost.

However, this kind of fear only disappeared in Li Shimin's heart for a moment, and soon the fear in his heart was replaced by an unparalleled excitement and joy.At this moment, his heart is full of unparalleled self-confidence. He knows that he will be the man of destiny in the future, and the country of Datang will belong to him.

Li Shimin has always been a trump card under Li Yuan's hands. No matter what difficulties Li Yuan encounters, as long as he plays Li Shimin's trump card, all difficulties will basically be solved.

It is precisely because of this that Li Shimin has repeatedly made great contributions to Datang.Therefore, with the increase of credit, Li Shimin's request is by no means what a vassal can satisfy, he wants to be the supreme controller of the Tang Empire.

Therefore, this private visit to Li Shimin in the summer of the fourth year of Wude is very necessary for Li Shimin.It turned Li Shimin's subtle and secret desire for power into a huge and firm political ambition, and prompted him to put it into practice step by step.

It was Wang Yuanzhi's words that gave Li Shimin a kind of confidence and strength that was almost apocalyptic, and made him embark on the road of seizing the heir without hesitation with the belief that "the destiny is in me".

From the summer of this year, Li Shimin never looked back.Time has passed, and eight years have passed since the "Xuanwu Gate Incident". When the prophecy has become a reality, Li Shimin, who is already the supreme ruler of the Tang Empire, still misses Wang Yuanzhi who "helped" him at a critical moment.

For this reason, he issued an imperial edict: "I used to be in the feudal dynasty, I was asked early, and I have a demeanor, and I will never forget my sleep." To express his gratitude to this worldly expert, I hope to find this Expert, please "thank you", but it wasn't until Su Wan's words that he got another message from the expert.

It is also because of this Wang Zhiyuan that a political game that will eventually lead to bloodshed and killing kicked off ahead of schedule, floating over the Li and Tang Dynasty early.

The story is very exciting, but Li Chengqian was a little confused when he heard it. Wang Zhiyuan obviously helped his father, okay? Is it okay to stop enjoying the emperor's favor? What made them turn against each other, and what made the emperor hate him so much? What about him? .
