Four Nights Red House

The surrounding air suddenly became condensed!Even the slightest breathing seemed so unnatural!

Longji was startled, and Dang even got up and knelt down in front of his father: "Father, my son is not..."

"I know you have no dissent!" Li Dan interrupted, knowing what he wanted to say.After passing through the vision of some sahas illuminated by the sky, he leaned his body forward slightly, and after nodding to Longji, his tone became much gentler, "I'm serious." His expression was also solemn.

Longji was a little dazed and a little stupefied.He subconsciously raised his head to meet his father's eyes, and there seemed to be a deep sense of truth hidden in those serious eyes.It seems to be determined, it seems to be determined, and it seems to be a kind of unrealistic exploration... It is difficult for people to really see clearly when the strands and strands converge in one place!

Longji's thoughts were full of confusion, and his thoughts were disturbed by Li Dan. He didn't know why his father said such a sentence to him suddenly. Contrary to his father's original decision, so he deliberately said so like settling accounts after autumn?

But he didn't dare to plead guilty, because these were just his guesses, and he wasn't sure.At the same time, it is unavoidable that there is such a layer of worries. The good-natured father suddenly proposes to pass on the throne to him. Is this... Hearing some bad words, the father has suspicions about him in his heart, so he deliberately tested him?Or maybe the father's disposition is really calm, and after so long struggle and balance, he is really tired and tired, so he really moved to give up the crown prince?

Either way, it's possible.But no matter whether the claim of passing the position was true or not, he was really taken aback!And he couldn't even respond to his father's words.

After tossing and turning for a long time, Longji tried to move this topic away, his eyes were moved, and his voice revealed a trace of sincerity: "I beg you, Father, don't scare my son with such words. Father's words... let my son smell it." It smells bad." His throat moved and he choked a little, "I don't want to face such a problem, because I don't want to part with my father in the future." These words are not all lies, there are some truths that are revealed. almost in between.

Dan felt soft in his heart: "Tsk." He frowned slightly, then sighed helplessly, raised his hand to help his son up, "Father, this is not good, why did you ever say goodbye to you?" Sighing, his voice darkened, "Who said that Jiangshan is an excellent thing? It is a responsibility, and whoever sits will be tired!"

Longji's thoughts turned very fast, and he could perceive a real meaning from his father's subsequent words and the expression in his eyebrows.Suddenly, he felt that his father was tired. He had been extremely tired both physically and mentally for a while, so when he was tired, he thought of "letting go" again, and said that he wanted to hand over the throne to him. if.

On the other hand, Li Dan himself, his whole life seems to be inseparable from one word, that is "let".He first gave up the throne to his mother;

Father, he condensed his whole life's experience, and exhausted his whole life's energy to write this vigorous and thought-provoking word "Rang". Did you have a good time?Or have you ever been really happy?

No one knows, including Li Dan himself!

After coming and going, Longji had vaguely understood Li Dan's thoughts, and he began to calm down and seriously consider his father's proposal.

To be honest, it's not like he didn't have the unfilial idea of ​​bypassing his father and ascending the throne directly.In fact, as early as that day before Shangguan Wan'er's bedchamber, he got off his horse and begged for orders, and when his father walked away through the army without saying a word, only holding the dead Wan'er in his arms, he was faintly moved by this idea; later he knelt for three days When Sanye could not kneel down to his father, and finally had to kneel with his eldest brother Li Chengqi to ask his father to come forward to preside over the overall situation, he also thought about this, and revealed it faintly.But both the courtier and the elder brother tactfully avoided his proposal. At that time, he saw clearly that the people in the world turned to his father instead of himself, so he had no choice but to give up.

In fact, after his father ascended the throne, Longji was a little bit thankful, thankful that he had not been completely taken over by momentary greed, and thankful that he had successfully helped his father onto the throne.Because after the restoration, the emperor faced a messy situation, and there were too many things that needed to be organized and planned, and Longji himself was only a 25-year-old boy after all. His means and experience are not enough to settle the many chaos in this great Tang Dynasty!

Nowadays, what should be organized has become somewhat orderly. Although the situation in Datang is still chaotic, and it is expected to become more chaotic day by day, it is all because of the intransigence between the two forces of Taiping and Longji. If both parties can make concessions, or one of them forces the other to take a step back, Datang's urgent needs can indeed be resolved!

I'm afraid this is also the root cause of why my father thought of giving up the throne and supporting the crown prince...

However, Longji still didn't dare to respond to his father's words rashly, he had to think long-term about what he had and what he didn't have.I understand in my heart that he can't take it easy to be the emperor now, because his foundation is not very stable, and his wings have not reached a satisfactory maturity. For him, it is safe and feasible to rely on and help his father, Once he agrees to his father's momentary zeal and becomes the emperor, he may be emptied of this power immediately on the grounds of being young, and even his father will be helpless at that time!

"Royal father." As soon as the thought came to Longji's mind, when Longji looked up, his eyes were filled with tenacity, and his voice was calm, "My son is determined not to accept it now!" Immediately he clasped his fists, "Please consider for the sake of the common people in the world, and take up this country Heavy duty!"

Li Dan didn't speak, just met his son's eyes.The stalemate between father and son here is not like a mutual insistence that they are unwilling to give in, but a kind of knowing communication and tacit eye search.

The sound of the surrounding wind passed through the ears softly, and the quiet time was a little solemn.After a long time, each other saw some different flavors and true thoughts in each other's eyes.

Li Dan thought about it for a while and settled down, finally nodded, and staggered his gaze: "I have called officials above the third rank to discuss this matter last night." After opening his mouth, his tone softened, and then he glanced at his son again, "You come here Please ask them to go back before, they will tell you soon." After a pause, he said.

Longji's heart trembled.Although there was no sense of blame in his father's tone, it still made him a little embarrassed to directly point out that the officials were their own masters and would report to him after discussing the matter.

Li Dan's words did not intend to blame, let alone have any other meaning, it was just a very casual sentence.And Longji's reaction made him a little helpless.

Sure enough, the emperor would be a lonely family. Since he ascended the throne, no matter whether it is his son, sister, or the courtiers around him, as long as he shows a little reaction on his side, it will cause these people to go back and forth and speculate. It's exhausting!Even an unintentional sentence or a casual joke can be taken as the truth by them, and they will never take the initiative to approach jokes and unintentional!It is said that the emperor's heart is unpredictable, but it is because the emperor has the power of life and death, so he dare not predict, dare not believe it!

It is such a position that is doomed to be unbearably high and has to be guarded too much. Why are there so many people who are drunk and dreaming only to win it?I can't figure it out, and people who haven't tried this Zhongbaiwei personally can't understand...

He was a little tired, both physically and mentally.Waving his hand made Longji retreat.

.

As Li Dan said, he convened officials to discuss matters last night, and what he discussed was the matter of passing on the crown prince.After that, the officials hurried back as soon as the scene was over, and each found their masters to report the incident.

The emperor was tired of sitting on the throne, and only used the excuse that he once gave way to the world, saying that he was calm by nature and had no intention of being an emperor, so now he plans to choose a wise man to inherit the rule and pass on the crown prince.Such a thing is indeed a major event, a first-class event, a major event that changes fate and overturns the universe!

But even after discussing all night, there is naturally no result after the discussion.Because none of the courtiers made a statement, and no one was so stupid as to express their attitude on such an extremely sensitive issue!

Come to think of it, this kind of thing is really not easy to express your attitude.The emperor proposes to abdicate the crown prince, if the courtiers respond to the emperor, conform to the emperor's thoughts, and praise the emperor's virtues and dedication to the country and the community, don't they affirm the meaning of the emperor's words, and indirectly accuse the emperor of not being good enough to take the throne?And even if that was what the emperor really meant, which emperor would want to see a situation where the courtiers responded immediately when he said he would abdicate?

And if it is said that the emperor's decision-making is not wise, it is really inappropriate to say that he only recognizes the emperor and does not want to follow the prince!Because the prince is of the same body as the emperor, he will be the emperor in the future. If he does not conform to the prince, it is tantamount to disobeying the emperor, and it is even more unwise to offend the prince.

And there is one more thing that has to be considered, that is, did the emperor become suspicious of these courtiers because of the previous few things, and came to knock on the mountain to test these courtiers after finishing the prime minister?

With so many doubts, Li Dan discussed the matter overnight, but naturally no results were discussed.This group of ministers just fished in troubled waters and avoided the important ones, and none of them clearly expressed their attitude!

Li Longji already knew the news when he paid his respects, needless to say.

And when Princess Taiping heard her confidant tell her that the emperor had plans to pass on the throne, her heart suddenly "thumped"!

I know in my heart that the emperor is facing the deteriorating battle between himself and the prince, and has the idea of ​​retreating... If this is just a momentary thought, or if some people believe that it is a deliberate temptation in their hearts, then it will be better.And if the emperor is serious, it will be really difficult!

Taiping felt uneasy, she was eager to think of a way to curb Li Dan's thoughts!

She decided in her heart that Li Dan must not be allowed to abdicate, absolutely not!Once Li Longji ascended the throne, it would be even more difficult for her to do anything.Abandoning the crown prince is easy, but abolishing the emperor is treason...

Taiping is in a hurry, really in a hurry.For her, Li Dan's reign is much better than Li Longji's reign!The relationship between her and Longji has really been going against each other for so long, and there is no room for mediation between them.Once Longji succeeds to the throne, the sharp cold light sword will be the first to point at her!At that time, not to mention the power and status that he enjoys and is endowed with at this time, Li Dan will be better off in one day. After all, he is her brother, and Longji will still take care of it; If she's not there, she might not even be able to save her dear life!

The current situation is cruel, and all the changes come too suddenly...
