The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 680

Even Li Chengqian was extremely surprised, he never thought that Li Tai would intercede for himself.So he looked at Li Tai with grateful eyes.

Seeing that Li Shimin didn't reply, Li Tai continued to speak: "Father, although the emperor raised troops to force the palace, but from the beginning to the end, the emperor never thought about putting his father to death."

"This shows that in the mind of the emperor, he still respects the father very much. It is because he was bewitched by someone with a heart, and felt that he might be replaced by his son at any time. That's why he had no choice but to take the risk."

"In your opinion, I don't know how to deal with Li Chengqian. Is it possible to let him continue to be the prince?" Li Shimin looked at Li Tai and asked.

"I only want to keep my brother's life. As for letting my brother be the prince, I will still be a commoner. This minister doesn't have to worry about it." Li Tai said to Li Shimin with a smile.

After Li Tai said this, everyone couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.The real reason why Li Tai did this was to win Li Shimin's favor.Fortunately, the crown prince can be successfully obtained in his hands.

"Li Chengqian has committed such a heinous crime. Even if his death penalty is spared, it is impossible for him to be the crown prince again. After all, the future world of the Tang Dynasty cannot be entrusted to someone like him."

"But I really want to ask you, since Li Chengqian can't continue to be the crown prince. Who is more suitable for the position of the East Palace?" Li Shimin asked Li Tai.

"This is your business, my father, and I have no obligation to worry about that." Li Tai said to Li Shimin with an expression of taking care of whoever he loves.

"I think you are very suitable for the position of the prince. So I decided that you will be the prince of the Tang Dynasty. I don't know what you want." Li Shimin looked at Li Tai and asked.

Before Li Tai could say anything, Kong Yingda stood up first, and said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has committed a felony, he cannot continue to be the heir apparent of the Tang Dynasty."

"However, the position of the crown prince involves the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, so I ask the emperor to think twice before doing so. To avoid what happened today."

"I said Master Kong, what did you do just now? When the rebels surrounded the Jinluan Palace, why didn't you see you and force them back with your sharp teeth? Now you stand up and make irresponsible remarks." Cheng Yaojin said to him. Kong Yingda said.

This sentence pierced Kong Yingda's heart directly, and Kong Yingda didn't know how to answer for a moment.His face was flushed instantly, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Since ancient times, military generals rule the world and civil officials rule the world. If we need civil officials to quell the rebellion, what's the use of you military officials?" Another Confucian courtier stood up and pointed at Cheng. Biting gold said loudly.

"Okay, shut up. I'm not asking you now. I'm asking Li Tai, the King of Yan. You can insert whatever you want." Li Shimin said angrily with a cold face.

This time, no one dared to say anything, they all bowed their heads in silence, waiting for Li Tai's answer.But they were also very curious, wondering how Li Tai would answer Li Shimin.

"Father, do you think that my son's unrestrained character, if one day sits on the dragon chair, will it damage the prestige of the Tang Dynasty?" Li Tai said to Li Shimin with a smile.

"What if I insist on making you the crown prince? If you don't stay in the East Palace and become the heir apparent of the Tang Dynasty, I will push Li Chengqian out of the Meridian Gate and behead him right now." Li Shimin looked at Li Tai and said.

This time, the people present were completely dumbfounded. No one would have thought that Li Shimin threatened Li Tai to kill Li Chengqian if he did not become the crown prince.

How can there be such a thing from ancient times to the present, which princes are not vying to be the prince.Does anyone else need to force him?I'm afraid that even if you don't force him, he will try his best to rack his brains.

Cheng Yaojin at the side was overjoyed at this moment.The happiest thing for Cheng Yaojin this time is to see Li Tai deflated.It can even be said that as long as it is not good for Li Tai, Cheng Yaojin thinks it is a good thing.

So Cheng Yaojin said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, the last general will take the former prince Li Chengqian to the gate of the Wu Dynasty to be executed now. If His Royal Highness King Yan refuses to agree, all you need is an order from the emperor, and the last general will definitely let the former prince be killed." Li Chengqian's head is in a different place."

Hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, not only Li Tai felt helpless.Even Li Shimin was very angry in his heart, and said secretly in his heart: "I am competing with my son, what are you doing with an outsider?"

But Li Shimin couldn't say that, he could only open his mouth again and said to Li Tai: "You should think about it, your brother's life depends on your attitude."

Everyone felt that Li Shimin had reached this point.Li Tai should borrow the donkey from the slope and live in the East Palace to become the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

But what everyone never expected was that at this moment, Qin Huaiyu walked into the Golden Luan Hall in a panic.First, he bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to Li Shimin.

Then he said to Li Tai: "His Royal Highness King Yan is in trouble. The Khitan King escaped. He led more than [-] Khitan soldiers to rebel, and now Youzhou City has been occupied."

When everyone heard Qin Huaiyu's words, they couldn't help being surprised.Unexpectedly, when Li Tai came to King Qin in the capital, his lair had already been lost.

Li Tai said to Li Shimin: "Father, Youzhou is in trouble now. My son must rush back to deal with it as soon as possible, otherwise the northern border of our country will be unstable."

After Li Tai finished speaking, he didn't wait for Li Shimin's permission at all.Instead, he turned around and said to Qin Huaiyu: "Ben sent the king's military order, and the Imperial Guard quickly assembled, and rushed to the train station immediately, and took the train to Youzhou for rescue."

After Qin Huaiyu said to Li Tainuo, he turned around and left the Golden Luan Hall.When they arrived outside the Golden Luan Hall, they fired the signal flare directly into the air.

An orange flame bloomed in the sky, and it slowly dissipated after a long time.At this time, Li Tai had already walked out of the Golden Luan Hall, and went directly outside the imperial city with Qin Huaiyu and others.

Seeing Li Tai leaving like this, everyone didn't think they were also worried about Li Tai.After all, Li Tai only has more than 1 Imperial Guards in his hands.How can we fight against the more than [-] people of the Khitan king?

Fang Xuanling came out of the squad and said: "Your Majesty, if the Khitan King really occupies Youzhou, I am afraid he will use Youzhou as a base to send troops to the Central Plains. Please also send troops to conquer the Khitan King to ensure the peace of our northern border."

"I'm talking about Lao Fang, so don't join in the fun. If something really happens, that boy Li Tai has already prepared it." Cheng Yaojin said to Fang Xuanling with a smile.

Cheng Yaojin's words made everyone startled.They never expected that Li Tai would use this method to refuse to be the crown prince.However, if Li Tai did this, he would inevitably be suspected of deceiving the emperor.

"Release Li Chengqian to a commoner and exile to Qianzhou to serve as an army. Without my imperial decree, you are not allowed to leave Qianzhou for half a step." Li Shimin said.

Then he got up and left the Jinluan Hall, leaving all the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty on the Jinluan Hall.A person went to the harem angrily.
