Chapter 380

If Datang really became what Li Chengqian said, they really didn't want to object.

However, the emperor's privilege is supreme!After a new emperor comes to power, can he really tolerate these old courtiers?
Cheng Chuli seemed to know what they were worried about, and stood up and said: "The emperor's status is indeed supreme, but that's just his status. According to my system, the emperor has no right to kill people at will.

Haven't you seen it yet?The system I am talking about is meant to weaken the imperial power.Officials have the say to formulate the system, and the emperor has the final decision-making power.

This system has already destined him not to kill people at will when he becomes emperor.Because he can only be the emperor for five years. "

Li Shimin felt a little uncomfortable hearing Cheng Chuli's words.

But after thinking about it, he was relieved again, after all, he really didn't want to be the emperor now, so he understood it.The emperor is just a tool for correcting memorials.

As long as life is not threatened, what's the point of being the emperor?Who wants to be locked in the palace every day to read memorials?Anyway, he was tired of watching it.

As soon as those officials heard it, they immediately understood.

yes!When your emperor was in power, you killed people at will, what will you do when you step down?
Besides, they were the ones who made the system, and they didn't allow the emperor to kill people at will, and the emperor couldn't do it at all.

If that's the case, then they have no objection.

However, what Cheng Chuli said next shocked them deeply.

I saw Cheng Chuli said: "The imperial power is like this, and other people are no exception. Since the imperial throne has no right of succession, then the hereditary succession system must also be abolished for us princes and princes. From then on, the title is just a status symbol, there will no longer be a shred of privilege."

"what?"

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were stunned.Especially those princes and dukes, they almost couldn't help rushing up to kill Cheng Chuli.

Even Cheng Yaojin looked at Cheng Chuli in disbelief, what is this kid doing?The more you say it, the more outrageous it is, right?
At this moment, Changsun Wuji couldn't bear it any longer, stood up and said, "Duke Zhong, you are also a duke yourself, do you know what you're talking about?"

Of course Changsun Wuji couldn't tolerate this happening.Because his family values ​​are very important.

The system proposed by Cheng Chuli severely suppressed the development of the family.

If this is the case, what will the next generation do?In this way, his eldest grandson's family can only be a brilliant generation in the hands of his eldest grandson Wuji.How can this be?

Cheng Chuli smiled and said: "Duke Zhao, even the emperor doesn't have this privilege. As a duke, do you still want this privilege?"

gah...

Changsun Wuji lost his temper in an instant.

The other princes and princes also looked at each other in blank dismay.

Yes!

Even the emperor has no right of inheritance, you, a duke, still want the right of inheritance?No matter how you say this, you can't justify it!
However, your emperor does not have the privilege to do so, but our Duke wants it!
So, people are greedy after all.

The emperor takes turns to do it. In the past few years, it will be Li Shimin. In a few years, it may be Li Chengqian.

Who will be the emperor is voted by these ministers and the common people.They think that whoever has the ability will let him go, which can be said to have completely given up the right to inherit.

But no matter what, your Li family will be the emperor.Why can't our next generation be the Duke of the country?This is what they put their lives into.

Changsun Wuji didn't dare to say these words, but it didn't prevent him from opposing Cheng Chuli.

Changsun Wuji said: "It doesn't seem to have anything to do with hereditary succession, does it?"

Cheng Chuli said: "Duke Zhao! Think about it for yourself, what kind of virtue did your eldest son Sun Cong have before he followed me? What kind of virtue did you have before you followed me?
That's right, a proper playboy, to put it bluntly, is a waste.On the contrary, your other sons are more promising.Why did it become like this?Have you thought about it? "

As soon as Cheng Chuli said this, all the people with titles were embarrassed to speak again.Because of the reason, they more or less know something.

Cheng Chuli said: "There is nothing wrong, because they are a group of people who are destined not to work hard. I was born to inherit my father's throne, why should I work hard?

No matter how hard I try, I'll be a prince in the end.It is impossible to surpass at all, what is the use of my efforts?

Enjoyment is comfortable, hard work is tiring.Wouldn't it be nice for me to lie down and enjoy him?Why should I suffer any more?
Therefore, no matter how hard you try, you can't teach a person who doesn't want to work hard.Such a person, when he grows up, is often a waste.

What is the easiest thing in the world to do?That's right, give up.When encountering something that must be overcome to succeed, they no longer have the motivation to succeed, so why don't they choose to give up?

So do you think the hereditary replacement system is good for them?No, no, no, it is the system that you think is good for them that hurts them.

If my guess is correct, when you can't teach them, you will often choose to give up.Because you think that they are destined to be the princes of the state in the future, and their lives will be worry-free.It doesn't matter if you teach well or not. "

When Cheng Chuli said this, these princes and princes seemed to have thought of the past, and silently lowered their heads.

Because they found out that Cheng Chuli was right.Once upon a time, they thought so.

Cheng Chuli continued: "But have you ever thought about it, if they weren't destined to be dukes of the state, destined to be princes, would they have become like this?
There is another point where you are even more wrong. Do you think they are destined to be princes and princes, and doomed to live a carefree life?No no no, you are wrong.

If my guess is correct, your second son's greatest goal is to kill your eldest son.Even if your generation avoids it, the next generation will not be able to avoid it. There will always be a generation who will fight for this position.

What's even more frightening is that once something goes wrong, your eldest son is likely to kill you.History tells us that things like this happen all too often.This is human nature.

Just because of a title, you can't die yourselves.Do you still think that hereditary replacement is a good thing? "

Everyone was in a cold sweat at Cheng Chuli's words.

Yes, history tells us that things like this happen all too often.Once he was old and useless, wouldn't their useless son really kill them?

Who can guarantee this?
Cheng Chuli said: "You have also seen, what kind of virtues did these four of my disciples have before I followed me? Just this first prince, he publicly said it when he went to court.

When he was the prince, what he discussed with those around him every day was which brother threatened him and how to kill him.

If my guess is correct, he, Li Tai, once thought about how to kill his eldest brother without anyone noticing.This is reality, this is human nature. "

As soon as Cheng Chuli said this, Li Chengqian and Li Tai lowered their heads.

Cheng Chuli continued: "But this, can you blame them? No, absolutely not. Because this is an inevitable thing, it is this hereditary system that has harmed them. If people do not do it for themselves, heaven and earth will destroy it!
But after they became my students, they didn't want to be emperors anymore.You have already seen what the result turned out to be, now you can see how united the two brothers are.

Therefore, it is necessary to have a system of hereditary replacement, so that your own sons can be beaten into dogs.Or revoke this system, let your sons unite and grow the family, you choose! "

As soon as Cheng Chuli finished speaking, the princes and dukes suddenly realized that their titles were no longer good.

Yes, the hereditary title cannot strengthen the family.Only a family united by brothers with the motivation to struggle is the strongest.

Li Shimin was very happy and said: "I also think that this hereditary replacement system should be abolished, what do you think?"

The ministers had nothing to say at this time, but they still did not respond to Li Shimin's question.

Yes, if you suddenly asked them not to take something they used as their best treasure, it would be hard for them to accept it for a while.

"Cough cough..."

Li Shimin coughed twice and said, "Since that's the case, then it's up to all the lovers to decide! Three days later, we will abdicate."

Li Chengqian quickly stood up and said loudly: "Father, it is the general election. We need to elect a few more candidates. At that time, the ministers will vote anonymously."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Yes, then you and Qingque will be selected as candidates!"

"what?"

Li Tai next to me was stunned, why did the fire burn to me again?

He quickly stood up and said: "Father, I have never been a prince, so I don't need it?"

Li Shimin said: "It has nothing to do with whether you have been a prince or not. Anyone who has the right to be emperor can be a candidate."

Li Tai thought about it, and said: "If that's the case, then father, senior brother and second senior brother must also be included in the list of candidates. Because you also have the right to be emperor."

No way, if you pull in alone, you will be safer.

Li Shimin's expression was not good, and he said, "Ke'er and You'er are not in Chang'an now, so they are not included in the list of candidates for the time being."

Li Tai said: "This is not acceptable. Since he has the right to be the emperor, how can the father disqualify him with a single sentence? If they are elected, just go and inform them to come back."

Li Shimin has a big head, this Li Tai is becoming more and more difficult to deal with now.

"That's fine, then put them on the list of candidates!"

Li Shimin feels that it doesn't matter if they are included in the list, because it is impossible for them to be elected this term.

Li Tai said again: "Father must also be included in the list of candidates. My teacher said that this can be re-elected."

gah...

Li Shimin was speechless, each of his sons was different, and they were no longer the guys he used to control.

"Row."

Li Shimin said angrily.

Next, Li Shimin announced to everyone that they have basically won the island country.Prepare to send a large wave of officials there.

As soon as everyone heard it, the discussion became more lively.

After the next court, Li Shimin returned to the harem, and first met with Empress Changsun.

Then Li Shimin told her what the emperor did in turn.Said that after he abdicated, he could take her around.

When Empress Changsun heard it, her expression changed: "How is this possible?"

Yes, if his son is in charge, then it's okay, but if Li Ke and Li You are in charge, then it's okay?

Li Shimin chuckled and said, "Guanyin maidservant, you don't understand. Doing this will help our royal family to unite and allow us to go further in the Tang Dynasty."

"That's not okay, isn't it messed up? Then what about me, the queen?"

Li Shimin's face immediately turned cold. At this moment, he remembered what Cheng Chuli had said to him.

Your queen!She said she would not interfere in politics, but in fact, she was either doing politics or on her way to doing so.

"Presumptuous, the harem doesn't interfere in politics, haven't you heard of it? You don't care who is the emperor, who is the emperor, isn't it my son Li Shimin? Who can replace you, the empress dowager?"

After speaking, Li Shimin flicked his sleeves and left.

I won't play with you anymore, I'll make you pissed off.

Yes, whoever became the emperor is not his son Li Shimin, as long as Li Shimin is willing, will his emperor's son dare not listen to him?Smoke him anytime.

Li Shimin now realizes how stupid he is to fight for the emperor.

If he hadn't competed with his elder brother back then, the Xuanwumen Incident would not have occurred.

As long as he doesn't fight, how could his elder brother be against him?
He will be his king of Qin well, he doesn't need to worry about anything, he enjoys what should be enjoyed as usual.Isn't he fragrant?
As for Empress Changsun, being scolded by Li Shimin like this, she was completely dumbfounded.It feels like Li Shimin doesn't even know him anymore.

Didn't the former Li Shimin listen to her the most?How did it become like this now?
The most important thing is that after waiting for several months, Li Shimin finally came back and could finally play poker.

But now that they are gone again, how can they still play?

And Cheng Chuli stayed home with Cheng Yaojin for one night.Go back and enjoy the family happiness.

Early the next morning, Xue Rengui drove him back to Chengjia Village.

The car went straight to the gate of the old man's yard, and Cheng Chuli jumped out of the car.

"Old man, old man, I'm back..."

A villager saw that it was Cheng Chuli, and quickly shouted to him: "Young Master, the Supreme Emperor doesn't live here anymore."

"What? He doesn't live here, where did he go?"

The villager said: "At Weishui Lake, the house over there has been built, and the old man moved there to live there."

"Oh, that's it."

After thanking the villager, Cheng Chuli jumped into the car again, and the car quickly drove towards Weishui Lake.
