Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 488 Lobbying the Prince
"Where is the prince now?" Li Jingxuan asked an eunuch.

"His Highness is in Guangtian Palace at the moment." The eunuch replied.

Li Jingxuan let go of the eunuch, turned around and walked towards Guangtian Palace.

The eunuch guarding outside Guangtian Hall saw Li Jingxuan, turned around and went inside to report to Li Jue.

"The old minister has seen His Highness!" Li Jingxuan saluted.

"The Grand Tutor is here! Please sit down! What is the Grand Tutor going to teach the widows today?" Li Jue said.

"The old minister came here this time and has something to discuss with His Highness." Li Jingxuan said.

"The Grand Tutor is planning to tell the widow about the East Turkic Rebellion! Isn't this matter already settled? Is there still a need to discuss this?" Li Jue said.

"This matter has been determined, and there is no point in discussing it."

"What I want to tell His Highness is about Liu Rengui, the concubine of the left. This time, Xiao Siye was able to become the main general in the crusade against the Eastern Turkic rebellion. He has contributed a lot." Liu Rengui said.

What do you mean, come to show off your opponents to you, come to show off to everyone?Li Jue thought to himself.

"Isn't this great? Liu Rengui has surrendered to the Taifu, which is really gratifying!" Li Jue said.

"The crown prince misunderstood me. This matter is not worthy of congratulations. Instead, we must be vigilant and be more careful." Li Jingxuan said.

"This is a matter between you and Liu Rengui. Is it necessary to tell the widow?" Li Jue asked doubtfully.

"Confused, the crown prince is confused!" Li Jingxuan patted his thigh and shouted in a low voice.

"You..." Li Jue pointed at Li Jingxuan angrily, not knowing what to say.

"The prince should know that both Hua Dazhi and Li Jingjia have close contacts with King Wu and Li Ke, and they are both King Wu's accomplices."

"This time we send troops to quell the Eastern Turkic rebellion. Once they succeed, they will all increase their ranks. By then, King Wu's power will only grow stronger."

"What's more important is that Liu Rengui also took refuge with Wu Wang Li Ke. You must know that Liu Rengui's influence is not small."

"Under their strong alliance, it's hard to say whether the prince will be able to ascend to the position of the Ninth Five-Year Lord in the future."

"Prince, think about it carefully. You and Wu Wang Li Ke have always been at odds. With the grievances between you and Li Ke, Li Ke can let you ascend the throne?" Li Jingxuan said.

"I am the prince, and that is the future emperor. As long as my father does not abolish me, what can they do to me?" Li Jue said angrily.

Li Jue didn't know whether Li Ke's growing power would threaten his crown prince, he knew in his heart, based on the grievances between him and Li Ke.

Li Ke didn't want to see him become emperor in his heart, and he would not let Li Ke go when he became emperor in the future.

But he overlooked one point, that is, his father would not allow any powerful force to threaten the imperial power, let alone anyone who could influence the emperor's will.

The emperor can allow his subjects to fight each other because everything is under the emperor's control.

The emperor will find a balance in their struggles to balance them. They can fight, but they cannot dominate.

Whether it is Li Jingxuan or Li Ke, or Liu Rengui and others, as long as one party dominates the situation, the emperor will take action to suppress it until the balance is restored.

What the emperor wants is for them to restrain each other, so that they can better control the situation, and everything is under the emperor's control.

"Actually, His Highness understands in his heart that once King Wu's power reaches a certain level, he can influence His Majesty's will."

"Even if His Majesty is alive, Li Ke dare not do anything to you, Prince, but what if His Majesty dies?"

"Your Highness, think about what the Second Emperor of Qin, Hu Hai, became the Second Emperor of Great Qin. Maybe, the Sand Dune Change will happen again in Great Tang in the near future."

"Your Highness, although you are the crown prince, you are right! But don't forget, you are not the emperor. As long as you are not the emperor for a moment, you may never be the emperor."

"His Royal Highness, don't forget that the late emperor was not originally a prince, and Gao Zu never thought of abolishing the construction of the hidden prince, but it was the late emperor who became the emperor in the end."

"Your Highness, you have to remember that as long as you haven't become the emperor for a moment, there will be infinite possibilities, and you should not let your guard down at any time." Li Jingxuan said.

"Li Jingxuan, what do you mean? Are you threatening me?" Li Juemeng got up, pointed at Li Jingxuan, and roared angrily.

The more Li Jingxuan said that, the more afraid Li Jue became. He was right, as long as he was not the emperor, there were infinite possibilities.

Regardless of the fact that he is now the prince of the Tang Dynasty, theoretically speaking, he is under one person and above ten thousand people.

But Li Jue knew in his heart that sitting in the seat of the crown prince was not as good as he thought. The crown prince seemed to be only one step away from the emperor.

But this step is really as difficult as reaching the sky.

"No, Your Highness misunderstood, I am helping His Highness!" Li Jingxuan said neither humble nor overbearing.

"You said you were helping me, did you help me like this?" Li Jue asked.

"Your Highness! I really want to help His Highness! I just came to see His Highness at this time! I have no hostility towards Your Highness. Your Highness wants to eradicate King Wu, and only I can help His Highness!" Li Jingxuan said.

"How are you going to help me? If you want me to believe you, show your sincerity." Li Jue looked at Li Jingxuan and said.

"I will only tell His Highness about this matter, and I hope His Highness will allow the subject to come and talk to His Highness." Li Jingxuan said.

Li Jue saw that Li Jingxuan didn't speak, Li Jue didn't speak, Li Jingxuan didn't speak either, just sipping tea quietly.

He believed that the crown prince Li Jue would understand that if the crown prince wanted to keep everything about him, he had to be on the same boat as him.

Therefore, Li Jingxuan was not worried at all, he was sure of Li Jue.

Li Jue stretched out his hand and beckoned to Li Jingxuan, motioning for Li Jingxuan to come forward and speak.

The corners of Li Jingxuan's mouth raised slightly, everything was under his control.

Li Jingxuan got up and sat down in front of Li Jue.

"Teacher can tell me how you plan to help me." The two faced each other, Li Jue said in a low voice.

"Don't worry, Your Highness! This time, Monan's rebellion will not go smoothly." Li Jingxuan said in a low voice.

"What do you mean? What did you do here?" Li Jue asked.

"That's right! But Your Highness, don't worry, as long as Mo Nan's rebellion fails, we can severely injure the King of Wu. At that time, the crown prince only needs to read the book of the King of Wu in front of His Majesty!" Li Jingxuan said.

"I will do this. Xiao Siye is your man. Monan failed to suppress the rebellion. As the chief general, he will definitely be convicted. Don't tell me you want to involve him." Li Jue said.

"Prince, you have to be careless when doing big things. Sometimes you have to abandon your car to protect your handsome man. As long as you can hit Wu Wang Li Ke, what's the point of sacrificing a Xiao Siye? Your Highness, think about it carefully, and I will resign!" Li Jingxuan said.

Li Jingxuan got up and took two steps back, saluted and left Guangtian Hall.
