Chapter 234

In the study, only Li Chengqian and Lin Heng were left.

"I came here to look for you this time because of what happened on the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"That day you stood in front of the Tai Chi Palace and said that those who will be alone sooner or later will be alone. Do you still remember this?"

Of course Lin Heng remembered that the meaning of what he said that day was that he wanted Li Chengqian, a thoughtful uncle, to stop committing suicide and be your crown prince in peace and contentment.

After all, Li Shimin's love for Li Chengqian was notoriously generous. After Li Chengqian rebelled, he didn't even kill anyone, but was simply demoted to a commoner and exiled to Lingnan.

And all the prince's henchmen were killed.

On the other hand, Li Tai, who followed his brother's example and rebelled, was immediately killed. The status of the eldest son is indescribably important.

Lin Heng looked at Li Chengqian strangely: "Why does His Highness ask about this?"

Li Chengqian smiled and said: "There are some things that it is not convenient for me to talk to others. No one can do it, only Lin Heng can do it."

Lin Heng panicked. This kid was probably trying to pull him to rebel. The timeline hadn't reached the age when Li Chengqian wanted to rebel. Besides, Li Shimin was in his prime, and even ten lives wouldn't be enough for him to rebel!

"His Royal Highness, please tell me."

Li Chengqian sighed slightly: "In the case of Goryeo, I heard that you helped my father a lot and donated many extremely powerful weapons."

Lin Heng breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that this was the case. Why did he think Li Chengqian was going to do it?

"Goryeo is arrogant and despises the Tang Dynasty. I am just trying to help the Tang Dynasty. It is nothing."

"On the other hand, Your Highness the Crown Prince seems to have a mental illness?"

Li Chengqian laughed and did not deny it: "I just went to see my father and said that I wanted to go on an expedition together, but he refused."

Upon hearing this, Lin Heng immediately understood why Li Chengqian today seemed to be about the same as usual, but was in a low mood.

The eldest brother-in-law wanted to send troops with Li Shimin to win some military honors and consolidate his position as prince, so as not to be snatched away by others in the future.

After all, in today's Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin is too capable. Li Shimin is responsible for handling almost everything by himself. Although the prince has the title of prince, he usually only studies and occasionally handles government affairs with Fang Xuanling and others. , in fact, there are not many things.

Moreover, Li Chengqian was suspicious by nature and thought about many things, so it was difficult to avoid thinking like this.

Lin Heng smiled and then said: "Your Highness, are you afraid that certain things will happen again?"

Li Chengqian's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the person in front of him dared to say anything!

But then things returned to normal, and this was a hit.

He did think so. After all, the prince established by the emperor's grandfather was taken away by his father, and the previous prince followed a similar path to himself.

Li Chengqian said calmly: "What do you think?"

Lin Heng said with a smile: "I think His Highness the Crown Prince is simply overthinking it. Times have changed!" "Huh? How should I put it?"

Lin Heng said slowly: "When the Supreme Emperor raised his army, it coincided with the end of the Sui Dynasty. The government was corrupt and chaotic, and the people were in dire straits. During the troubled times, my father led troops to conquer all directions and laid the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. The generals and the father are all highly regarded, and then due to some reasons... Haha, I won’t go into details, in short, the father created the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty today."

"My father has won the hearts of the people. Even if he has done some things, the people have great expectations for him. Even becoming the emperor is a matter of course for the people. The government will not change."

"But times are different now. The Tang Dynasty is at its peak. The prince and crown prince are the foundation of the country. Once established, it will not be shaken. Of course, as long as we don't do anything excessive. And my father's thoughts are mine. Yan, probably because he doesn’t want His Highness to be put in danger. After all, there is only one Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, and His Highness should be the most valued person by the father."

After hearing Lin Heng's words, Li Chengqian pondered for a moment: "Yes"

But he felt that his father seemed to value the other sons more than himself, which could be seen from his daily behavior.

Lin Heng continued: "The position of prince is something that my father has carefully considered. It is to prepare for the future of the Tang Dynasty. It requires a certain amount of training."

"So Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't actually have to worry too much. All he needs to do is arrange it and do it well. Of course, I am a prince consort. This is just a personal opinion."

When Li Chengqian heard this, he looked a little sad and sighed: "But over the years, I always feel that I cannot satisfy my father and cannot reach the level that a prince should have."

Lin Heng was stunned for a moment. He had already said such a thing?Those who knew it thought the two were having a heart-to-heart talk, while those who didn't know thought they were discussing rebellion!
He immediately said: "His Royal Highness, it is better not to say such things. Whether the father is satisfied or not is not something we can figure out."

However, he still wanted to tell his uncle not to think too much about useless things, and immediately said: "If His Royal Highness has nothing to do on weekdays, he should naturally study and learn the knowledge of governing the country, but if he has time, he might as well be like his father. , go out more among the people and the military."

"These are all the subjects of my father and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"I believe that based on the character of His Highness the Crown Prince, no one will question His Highness the Crown Prince. There is no need to consider other things. You must keep your integrity and do not form factions or seek selfish interests, let alone..."

Lin Heng really didn't dare to say any more, and immediately paused. Li Chengqian looked at Lin Heng in confusion. Unexpectedly, the person in front of him actually warned him not to rebel?

How could he rebel? No matter how much his father ignored him, he was also his father's son and would never do such a thing no matter what.

Lin Heng's warning was only from a historical perspective. After all, the person in front of him might really want to rebel in the future. In addition, the Han King Li Yuanchang would also have to die together, and there were many more people who would die.

As long as you, Li Chengqian, don't seek death, this emperor will be yours. Why do you think about so many useless things all day long? Even if you are plotting rebellion, can you outsmart Li Shimin?

Lin Heng said calmly: "What I talked to the Crown Prince about today was all from the bottom of my heart. His Highness the Crown Prince has supported my relationship with Ning Xi from the beginning, so that's why I said this. Don't blame His Highness the Prince."

Li Chengqian also waved his hand: "It doesn't matter."

Then he laughed and said: "Looking at the Tang Dynasty, you are probably the only one who dares to talk to me like this."

"What you said just now is very good. I have been staying in the Prince's Mansion for a long time. I should go to various places to have a look. I heard that your Lin County is about to have a harvest recently. Why don't you take Gu with you? "

Lin Heng smiled and nodded: "What's wrong with that? I just have nothing to do today, so it doesn't hurt to go and have a look together."

Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes: "Haha, I think your injury has recovered. Ning Xi will stay here for a long time. It's time to return to the palace."

Lin Heng was stunned. Your Highness, am I telling you not to go astray, and then you took my wife away?
You didn't do that, did you?
