Chu Tang: Tell Li Er at the beginning that I am a time traveler

"What would you do if you were asked to be your Majesty in the future?"

Li Kuo said this lightly.

It was as if he was chatting with Li Chong about daily life.

If it were someone else, they might be frightened and have all kinds of thoughts.

even……

Maybe some people have been frightened to their knees.

But Li Chong wouldn't think so much.

after all……

First of all, he is the grandson of the emperor, and he should inherit this position.

Secondly, it can only be said that his error tolerance rate is very high. Anyway, if he gets the answer wrong, he can just be cute with his imperial grandfather.

"If I were to be your Majesty in the future, I would definitely not rely on the shadow of my Aye."

"What do you mean?"

Li Kuo asked.

"That is to say... According to general history books, when the previous emperor dies, the previous emperor usually leaves a team of people to support the country for his heirs."

"And I will never rely on the team Aye left for me."

"Why? Isn't it good... to leave you a team that can assist you in running the country?"

Li Chong also replied: "It's not that it's not good, and my grandson didn't say no, but... all those emperors who are wise and powerful in history books rely on the shadow of others."

"If you want to sit firmly on the throne, you need people who are loyal to you, rather than people who are given to you by others and asked to be loyal to you."

"And, as an emperor, you must also establish your own authority among your own people."

"to be honest!"

"Why are there so many ministers who assisted the country in the history books that they always controlled the government?"

"Isn't it because the emperor relies on the legacy of his father's generation?"

"Of course! You can't blame them, the future generations, for this."

"Because they are always locked up in the palace and don't understand the outside world at all. That's not what the powerful officials want him to know. He can only know what he knows."

"If you want to be a grandson, you should be like the founding emperor of every dynasty."

"Like Liu Bang, like Emperor Wen of our Tang Dynasty."

"Only if the people under his command obey him, then the decree can be carried out quickly and effectively. Only if the people under him obey him, then there will not be too much turmoil in this country."

"Actually... my grandson said something inappropriate."

"Many emperors like to suppress the prince."

"My grandson thought this was wrong."

"If it's for the purpose of training the prince's ability, then that's fine."

"Yes, she is totally worried about the prince's rebellion."

"Okay, often the crown prince is suppressed. He has fought for more than ten years in the court, and the old emperor is about to die. Looking at the following, there is no successful person who can inherit the throne, so... at this time, I remembered , for the sake of the country, the country, and the country, and then randomly appoint someone who is not ready to be your majesty."

"Then... match him with some trustworthy ministers."

"My grandson has read history books all over the place, and most of the history of the dynasty is like this."

"And the result of this is often that either the emperor is ignored by the powerful ministers. For example, Emperor Jing of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was even worse. He was directly deprived of his throne by the powerful ministers. This was the later Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty."

"Of course, Emperor Jing of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was still young, and Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty bullied orphans and widowed mothers. He didn't know how to do anything. There is nothing we can do about it."

"If you want the inheritance of the dynasty to last forever, the prince must have a certain level of strength, and he must have a very clear understanding of himself."

"Unfortunately……"

"I estimate that very few people in all dynasties have such an understanding."

Li Kuo discovered that Li Chong was really smart.

even……

They are all smart enough to know how to be a prince.

If every prince understands this truth, then how can your majesty worry about the prince treason?

then……

Li Kuo said: "But if the prince is allowed to cultivate his own team, what if he rebels one day in the future?"

Li Chong; "Are you referring to Emperor Taizong Wen?"

Li Kuo: "Ahem! You can say that."

This time, Li Zhong could clearly feel that the cough was caused by embarrassment.

Li Chong said: "I would say that Gao Zu will not become the emperor. Since you promised to make Emperor Taizong Wen the prince, why did you regret it in the end?"

"Why did you promise to make Emperor Taizong Wen the prince when you knew there was already a prince?"

"We clearly know that Emperor Taizong Wen is about to achieve great success, but why do we still let him continue to lead troops and perform meritorious deeds?"

"Of course!"

"If I become your Majesty in the future, and the prince happens to be incompetent, and there is another king among the kings who is as good at civil and military affairs as Emperor Taizong Wen, then I will definitely depose the prince without hesitation, and then take the crown prince's position , pass it on to the capable prince."

Li Kuo: "Nonsense! It has always been a rule to establish the elder rather than the younger, and to pass on the descendants to direct descendants rather than concubines."

Li Chong: "Then my grandson has to ask, is everything always right?"

"The ancients also said that the sky is round and the earth is round."

"But now it has been proved that this land is round."

"Establish the elders but not the younger ones, pass on the heirs and not the concubines. This is just a rule in peacetime, to stabilize the court. It's a kind of deception, self-deception."

"As everyone knows...the succession to the throne is not filled with blood everywhere."

"Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty knew that Confucianism on the outside and the law on the inside, Confucianism on the outside, is for others to see, and the internal law is the core."

"Of course! It is indeed not easy to judge whether a person is capable, good enough, and capable of replacing the prince."

"But like Emperor Taizong Wen, don't be too obvious."

"If the crown prince had gone to Luoyang to fight Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande back then, would he have won?"

"At that time, almost half of the country in the Tang Dynasty could be said to have been conquered by Emperor Taizong Wen." "Who has the ability and who does not."

"As your Majesty, you must have a strong balance in your heart."

Li Kuo: "The palm of the hand is flesh, and the back of the hand is also flesh. Who can part with it casually?"

Li Chong: "If you ask me, this is mainly due to my failure to be an emperor."

"If it passes the test, it will even prevent the kings from wanting to take over the throne."

Li Kuo: "It's not a small tone."

Li Chong: "Grandfather, my grandson is not bragging. My grandson is definitely more powerful than you, Grandfather, and even more powerful than Emperor Taizong Wen."

Li Kuo: "..."

"I don't know how high the sky is."

Li Chong: "I know! How high is the sky? I think it should be infinitely high. In other words, it cannot be described as high. How thick the earth is. I will go back and ask people from the Academy of Sciences and the Imperial College. They will know immediately."

Li Kuo: "Ahem! It seems... you are really not afraid of me."

Li Chong: "My Imperial Grandfather, what do you have to be afraid of? If Imperial Grandfather thinks that what I say is unreasonable, you can just use examples to refute me. If you can refute me, then I will listen to you, Imperial Grandfather. Grandson I’m not the kind of unreasonable person.”

Li Kuo really wanted to call the guards and drag this man out and chop him into pieces.

only……

I don't know why, but the more he behaves like this, the more I like him.

Li Kuo: "So, by establishing the Ministry of Culture, you are cultivating your own power?"

We have to find a way to make this kid anxious.

Li Chong: "Yes, but not entirely."

did not expect……

This guy really dares to admit it.

I saw Li Zhong said: "They are a group of people who only know how to grasp the pen. How can they be considered a force? In order to use their specialties, they must first conquer the world before writing edicts."

"To conquer the world, we need people like Zhou Ze."

"There are only 120 people, so it's not very useful."

"When Sun Er established the Ministry of Culture, he first wanted to make money. Only when you can make money and have benefits that can be distributed to others, will others follow you and be willing to help you."

"It's like whenever a minister makes great achievements, the emperor must reward the minister."

"If you, as the emperor, don't even have money, then which of your ministers will be willing to continue to help you?"

“When you have money, you can do more things.”

"For example... Qianliang Bingjia..."

Li Kuo was staring at him intently at this time.

Li Chong also followed his imperial grandfather, coughed, and then said: "My grandson has no intention of rebellion. My grandson just doesn't want his fate to be handed over to the powerful ministers who will assist him in the future."

"Grandfather and Aye, both of you will die sooner or later. When the time comes, your grandson will be able to get the throne sooner or later."

"My grandson just wants to make the succession to the throne smoother."

"And for the grandson..."

"It is His Majesty, and there is not much difference between being a prince."

"As long as His Majesty doesn't say that he wants to depose his grandson as the crown prince."

"otherwise……"

"Why would you want to rebel if you have nothing to do?"

Li Kuo: "What if you, Aye, want to destroy you?"

Li Chong: "What's the reason?"

Li Kuo: "I just don't like you."

Li Chong: "Then I will destroy Aye."

Li Kuo's eyes widened, as if to say, boy, what you say is dangerous!

Li Zhong said unhurriedly: "If he wants to destroy an excellent heir like me, then he must be a weak king, and there is no need to keep him. Our Li family does not need such a useless monarch. To be precise, he is a waste of his own life, he has no idea in his heart, he is not lying down and enjoying himself, but he still wants to interfere with other people's excellent waste monarch."

"My grandson must ask him to be the supreme emperor."

Li Kuo: "Here comes someone!"

Guard: "Your Majesty."

Li Kuo: "Put the emperor's grandson in jail in Dali Temple to calm down for a few days."

Li Chong: "..."

Guard: "This..."

Li Kuo: "You won't listen to me anymore?"

Guard: "This...is!"

Li Chong: "..."

Li Zhong was confused!

"No, Grandfather, are you serious?"

Li Kuo: "Pull it down."

Guard: "Yes! Your Highness, please forgive me. Please come with me."

Li Chong shouted: "The tiger is the lord of all beasts, and you don't dare to offend its wrath. Only the love between ancestors and grandchildren can be reviewed step by step."

Li Kuo almost laughed angrily.

you boy!
The response was quick.

But don’t think that I don’t know. This poem is clearly about the relationship between father and son. You changed two words just to fool me?
And there is no love between tigers and grandparents.

I'm afraid I don't even know which tiger my ancestor is.

Li Kuo continued: "Pull it down."

Li Zhong was still saying: "My Shang Yuan Ye!" (End of this chapter)
