Man Tanghong

Chapter 380 Li Jiancheng bared his teeth?
Li Yuanji muttered in his heart, but his face remained calm, and he said indifferently: "There is nothing to be shaken by, it must be nonsense."

Ling Jing hesitated for a moment, and said with a strange expression: "I also think it is nonsense, but the rumors in the market are too true."

Speaking of this, he specifically emphasized: "Your Highness should also know that there is no wave without wind."

Li Yuanji glanced at Ling Jing, and said meaningfully: "Did you get other news from other sources, otherwise you couldn't have emphasized twice that this rumor might be true."

When Ling Jing heard this, he knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, and immediately said frankly: "To be honest, I did get other news from other sources. This rumor may indeed be true."

Li Yuanji's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained calm, "Tell me carefully, what did the other party say that actually made you believe that this rumor might be true."

Since Ling Jing spoke up, he didn't hide it, he said frankly: "The other party told me that this rumor first came from the palace."

Li Yuanji's heart skipped a beat again.

Not only the heart beats, but the eyebrows also jump.

If this rumor first came out from the palace, there is a [-]% chance that it is true.

After all, the imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty is not like the imperial palace of the Song Dynasty. It is strictly controlled. There are very few secrets of the palace revealed on weekdays.

It is very likely that this rumor was released by Li Yuan to test the attitude of the ruling and opposition parties.

If people in the government and the opposition could accept it, then maybe Li Yuan would really do it.

If people in the government and the opposition cannot accept it, then Li Yuan will most likely give up this idea and think of another way.

According to the history of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan's idea is unlikely to be realized in the end.

However, under his influence, Datang has undergone some changes. Whether it was Li Jiancheng raising private soldiers in Gyeongju or poisoning Li Shimin in Quchi, it was nearly two years earlier than recorded in history.

So it is not ruled out that Li Yuan's idea will also change.

So it must be stopped.

If Li Yuan expands the territory of the Tang Dynasty and engages in enfeoffment outside the territory, then he has no objection, and he doesn't even mind helping Li Yuan.

But if Li Yuan engages in internal divisions and internal struggles, he must stop them.

Datang is still not the historical Tang that beat up neighbors, dominated the world, and all nations came to court. Datang is still very weak, and there are powerful enemies outside the region, and there are many ambitious people in the region.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to engage in such things that make relatives hurt enemies and make things happy at this time.

"If my guess is correct, this rumor should have nothing to do with my father, it should be spread by people with ulterior motives in the palace to confuse the public.

You continue to pay close attention to this matter, but don't let the wind mean the rain. "

Li Yuanji didn't tell Ling Jing the speculation in his heart, but concluded that the rumor was false and told Ling Jing not to believe it.

Ling Jing hesitated and said, "But..."

Without waiting for Ling Jing to finish speaking, Li Yuanji waved his hand arrogantly and said, "It's nothing serious, this rumor must have nothing to do with my father. If my father really wanted to, why did he only distribute it to my elder brother and my second brother?" Half of the country, why not give it to me?

Could it be that my eldest brother and my second brother are his sons, and I am not his son?

Why can my elder brother and my second brother enjoy his family business, but I can't?
Is it because I don't have the qualifications? "

Ling Jing looked at Li Yuanji with astonishment.

Li Yuanji continued: "You also know that my father has always doted on the three of us brothers, if my father really wanted to share my Li Tang's family business, how could I lose my share?
Since there is no share of mine in the rumors, it means that this is not what my father meant. "

Li Yuanji's analysis was straightforward.

Ling Jing opened his mouth, only wanting to ask Li Yuanji.

My Highness, can you have a clear understanding of yourself?
Can your weight in the heart of a sage be compared with that of the crown prince and King Qin?
Can the ability and importance you have shown be compared with the crown prince and King Qin?
Even if the sage divided the Great Tang into two, deep down in his heart he hoped that the divided Great Tang would continue to prosper instead of decline.

The abilities shown by the Crown Prince and the King of Qin are enough for the sage to see the bright future after the Great Tang is handed over to them.

But the ability you have shown makes a saint feel a headache, let alone seeing a bright future.

How could it be possible for the sage to share Datang with you?

Are you comforting yourself, or are you feeling good about yourself?

Li Yuanji saw Ling Jing's expression of "I have some unpleasant words, and I don't know if I should say them", and realized that his words were not very convincing, so he immediately added, "Don't worry, I To say that this rumor is nonsense must be nonsense."

Ling Jing was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to start a conversation, Li Yuanji said again: "It's not nonsense, I will also turn him into nonsense."

Speaking of this, Li Yuanji stared at Ling Jing and smiled indifferently: "You have to believe in my current strength."

Ling Jing's body shook slightly, and he immediately understood what Li Yuanji meant.

Li Yuanji's strength is not weak now, and he can already influence some important decisions of Datang.

Therefore, Li Yuanji can change the decisions that Li Yuanji does not want to believe in, or the decisions that he does not want to accept.

Although Li Yuanji's ability alone may not be able to reverse some important decisions made by Li Yuan, Li Yuanji will definitely not fight alone when it comes to dividing the Tang Dynasty into two.

Judging from his current analysis, if Li Yuan really wanted to divide the Great Tang into two, that would be a fantasy.

First of all, Li Jiancheng would not agree.

As the eldest son, Li Jiancheng has the absolute right to inherit the Tang Dynasty. It is impossible for him to be a half-faced emperor instead of being a unified emperor.

Li Shimin would not agree either.

The power in Li Shimin's hands is enough to help him ascend to the throne of the Tang Dynasty. Why should he share the country with Li Jiancheng, and then take the other half of the country from Li Jiancheng in a waste of time and effort.

With the throne at his fingertips right in front of him, how could he be willing to look far away.

The royal family will not agree.

The royal family now enjoys supreme wealth and superhuman authority. As long as they lie down peacefully, they can enjoy the glory and wealth for a lifetime. Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin make a choice.

Civil and military officials will not agree.

The civil and military officials have paid so much to get their status today. How could they allow their status to be reduced by half, how could they allow another change in the Tang Dynasty, which would make their wealth and prosperity change.

So this idea of ​​splitting Datang into two must be whimsical.

It does not meet the pursuit of everyone in the Tang Dynasty, but only Li Yuan's pursuit.

The problem is, even if Li Yuan is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he dare not insist on something when everyone in the Tang Dynasty opposes it.

With the support of everyone in the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuanji said that this rumor is nonsense, so it is indeed nonsense.

"I believe in His Highness's strength."

Ling Jing nodded and said sincerely.

Li Yuanji also nodded with a smile, and picked up the teacup to invite Ling Jing to have a drink, but just when the teacup was halfway through, he remembered something, "Speaking of such a big event that my second brother was killed, it should be It shocked the government and the public, and attracted a lot of discussion from the government and the public, why didn't you hear anyone talking about it, and you didn't hear anyone running around to complain for my second brother."

Ling Jing heard this, smiled wryly and said: "In the beginning, there were quite a few people talking about it, some complained for His Royal Highness King Qin, some raised their eyes for His Highness the Crown Prince, and some said His Highness was domineering.

But after being arrested by people from Chang'an and Wannian counties, as well as people from the left and right Wuhouwei, no one talked about it. "

Li Yuanji suddenly realized.

So it was suppressed by Li Yuan.

No wonder Li Shimin's murder was such a big deal that no one in Chang'an City talked about it, and no one complained for Li Shimin.

"What was my eldest brother's reaction after he found out that my second brother was fine?"

Li Yuanji asked.

Li Jiancheng spent so much money just to want Li Shimin's life.

Li Shimin is fine now, how could he not respond.

Ling Jing said with a smile: "It is said that after getting the news, he was furious."

Li Yuanji gloated and said, "What else?"

The smile on Ling Jing's face turned bitter, and he said, "Also, the person His Royal Highness hates most now is His Highness."

Li Yuanji was taken aback for a moment.

Ling Jing explained with a wry smile: "His Royal Highness learned that His Royal Highness forced the saint to be promoted to Su Dingfang as Prince Zuo Nei, and after he took Wang Gui into his family, he almost brought someone to Quchi to ask you Xingshi for his crimes."

Li Yuanji was happy, "He has the guts, so why didn't he come?"

Ling Jing smiled wryly and said, "I heard that I was persuaded by someone. However, His Royal Highness has already said that you have bullied others too much, and you must give him an explanation."

"Do I have to give him an explanation?"

Li Yuanji was even happier, and said almost without hesitation: "Then I will give him an explanation."

Ling Jing looked at Li Yuanji puzzled.

Li Yuanji happily ordered: "In the future, you will send people to spread the news, and you will say that the poisoning of my second brother is indeed what my elder brother said.

At that time, not only my elder brother and my second elder brother were present, but also my uncle Wang, my cousin, Dou Gui, Zheng Shanguo, Wei Zheng, Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong and many others.

If someone doesn't believe it, you can go to them for verification. "

Ling Jing said with a look of astonishment: "Isn't the saint not allowed to spread this matter? Your Highness, if you do this, you are not afraid of angering the saint?"

Li Yuanji laughed and said: "It is because my father does not allow this matter to be spread that my elder brother is so arrogant, and after poisoning my second elder brother, he dares to bark his teeth at me.

Now that I'm spreading this matter and attaching a series of witnesses, I want to see how arrogant he is and how he bared his teeth? "

Speaking of this, Li Yuanji looked at Ling Jing and said, "As for my father, you don't have to worry about it. As long as you don't leave anything behind, even if my father finds out about me, he won't arrest me without evidence. How about it."
