Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 517

In addition to seeing Xue Rengui as a talent to be made, and not wanting to be buried like this, Dou Kuan came here today to plead guilty. The crown prince has backed a lot of criticism for mentioning him to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Integrity.As for him, for his own selfish desires, he failed to kill his relatives righteously, but just asked them to resign from office, and Dou Kuan still felt a little guilty in his heart.

In fact, Dou Kuan didn't say anything, and Li Chengqian knew what he meant by coming today. No matter how proud Li Chongzhen was, without his order, Chang Sun Chong wouldn't dare to show them the confidential files even if he had eight heads.

Dou Kuan is a typical man with a sharp mouth and a tofu heart. Although he speaks harshly, he is merciful to his father and brother who are sorry. Otherwise, with the current momentum, they will definitely be killed. No.

At that time, only the old man Dou Cong will be left in the entire Fufeng County government. For such a thing, he doesn’t need to stand out, just find someone in the Ministry of Integrity to impeach him. Don’t say it’s just to vent his anger on his mother. Well, it would be easy to swallow the county government in one gulp.

It is such a rare quality to be in a high position without making trouble, and to suffer great humiliation and only say a few mild ridicules. What else can you ask for from such an official?

"Yanji, what you did was not at fault. Those few committed nothing serious, and they didn't make any progress. At most, they were dismissed from office and seized titles. Now that they can stand up and resign themselves, forget about their past mistakes. You There is no need to feel guilty about it.”

After finishing speaking, Li Chengqian walked down from the steps, patted Dou Kuan on the shoulder in fear, and continued: "People are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless, after all, they are father and son brothers, how can they be so cruel so easily! When Hong Gaoping Wang's family was with Shouguang County Lord, the hand that held the pen kept trembling. They were all relatives of flesh and blood. It was really uncomfortable to order them to be killed. As time went by, I gradually understood why my father often Standing at the Xuanwu gate in a daze."

"The establishment of the Pichang Temple is an unacceptable act, the purpose is to deter those who have the heart to reach out to the people. Since the Li family has become the lord of the world, they have to be worthy of them, so I don't care if they get a little bit of infamy.

But looking back, sometimes you still have to adapt to the situation and deal with it according to the situation. You can't force your relatives who are committing crimes to be killed. If that happens, what will happen to the court. "

Dou Kuan understands that Li Chengqian can only say these heart-to-heart words in this world, and he is really lucky for Dou Kuan to be among these five people.To be honest, he still wants to persuade the prince when he has time. It is true that the law is strictly enforced, but it cannot be done absolutely. Once the courtiers are forced to the opposite side, the country will never have peace.

Fortunately, the crown prince knows the truth that too much is too late, and knows how to grasp the heat and measure. In this way, it can not only deter corrupt officials, but also not intensify the conflict between the East Palace and the courtiers. It is the best of both worlds, killing two birds with one stone. In Huazhou, he was much more mature, and Dou Kuan was very pleased about this.

"Your Highness, I still have a word of advice. Since His Majesty's dragon body is already in good condition, His Highness should take the initiative to resign from the post of supervisor of the country. First, take the initiative so that His Majesty will not suspect that you are greedy for power, and second, it will also save the court. Those people whispered furtively, some things were said three times, and the falsehood became true."

Although Dou Kuan entered the court not long ago, because of the special nature of the Ministry of Integrity and Government, he would always hear some gossip. That day in the Taiji Hall, the emperor could manage the government, but he just let the prince handle it. Is there nothing tricky in it?

It's no wonder that the courtiers think too much, the emperor's father and son are too similar, the same heroism, the same tyrannical means, and the incident in the ninth year of Wude was at the bottom. No one can guarantee that the prince who "leads troops well" will I don't know how to learn from my father and sit in that position ahead of time.

Dou Kuan was not the first person to have such concerns. Xu Jingzong also told him the same thing. It wasn't that Li Chengqian was really greedy for power. As early as half a month ago, he invited the emperor to come out to take charge of the government in the Palace of Lizheng.But I don't know what my father thinks, I don't agree with it anyway, I have to wait until after the competition among the nations, no matter how hard Li Chengqian tries, he will never let go.

After thinking about it, Li Chengqian realized that he had been fooled. There were so many countries coming this year, and Tubo was still eyeing it. Such a complicated situation was the time to test the ability of the rulers to adapt. This is another question that father asked his son.

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian couldn't help sighing in his heart, it's all the same, he is going to be a father, can't he just take a test like he does with children.

"Yanji, you are a loyal minister. Let's talk about what we say. Your Majesty, Gu has said it a long time ago, but his old man always uses the excuse that the dragon's body has not healed to stop him. If Gu talks too much, he He raised his hand to beat him, and said Gu was an unfilial son, unwilling to share his father's worries. You said that he was talking about this, so what can Gu say as a son? Forget it, as long as he can be filial, he will Just wait for some doubts!"

After listening to the prince's words, Dou Kuan was a little confused. He really couldn't understand why the emperor would do this. You must know that he is in the prime of life, and he is in the prime of life. I am afraid that this dragon chair will have to be built for decades. The power in his hand should be Hold it firmly in your hand.

But he not only allowed the prince to control the military and participate in government affairs, but also let the prince clean up the hearts of the people with a conniving attitude. Logically speaking, this situation should be done before he knew that he was dying. Why so early.

And the prince's own strength is constantly increasing, isn't he afraid that the prince or his subordinates will be impatient before he gets old?The example of the ninth year of Wude is there. No one knows the reason for this better than the emperor himself.

Of course, he was not the only one who had such doubts among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. Among the close officials of the East Palace, there was only one person who did not say a word about it, and that was Zhao Guogong's eldest Sun Wuji.The biggest change this old fox has made so far is his attitude towards the prince's nephew. He is more respectful than any other prime minister. No one knows what the reason is.

After being stunned for a long time, more incomprehension appeared on Dou Kuan's face, and he said with emotion: "God's will has been difficult to ask since ancient times. The ancients never deceived me. Your Majesty's mind is something that ordinary people like me can understand."

"Okay, it's strange if you can guess it. Gu has been his son for so many years and gets along with him day and night. It's not that many times he can't understand his father's mind. What's so strange about it!"

To be honest, Li Chengqian has always believed that the ministers are eating carrots and worrying about this aspect. As far as the army is concerned, he only has the Liu rate and the Zuowuwei army to mobilize.

Moreover, since the establishment of the Northern and Southern Offices, the emperor has adjusted the candidates for the generals of the guards, and his control has become more powerful than before. He has turned the Northern Offices into his private army, and thoroughly cleaned the Southern Offices. Among the current guards, Who could be more prestigious than the emperor.

Taking the imperial palace as an example, there are only a thousand guards guarding the eastern palace, and the rest of the palace is guarded by the emperor's confidantes. Even though he is the supervisor of the country, he has no right to mobilize them.Even if Li Chengqian had the intention of treason, as long as he dared to walk out of the East Palace, the head would be put on a plate and sent to the emperor in less than half an hour.

If that's the case, it's better to wipe the neck directly. I really don't know how those guys came up with such a weird idea, isn't it ridiculous! .
