"Your Majesty, the matter between the prince and the prince is a major matter. Even if it is too late, your majesty should inform the concubine."

"Guanyin maid, it's not that I didn't tell you, yesterday the prince came back and beat and beat in the east palace, and many servants in the east palace were injured by the prince.

Even if I told you at that time, what would you do?"

Li Shimin sighed: "The prince is too old, if you always reprimand him, it will make him detached from us."

Chapter 177

Li Shimin's words were so serious that Empress Zhangsun's face was a little sad after hearing it.

She raised her head and asked with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, isn't this right in His Majesty's arms?"

"Guanyin maid, what do you mean?"

"Your Majesty named Kuan'er Marquis of Chixian County, and then acquiesced to the fight between Kuan'er and the prince. Don't your Majesty want Kuan'er to also participate in the struggle for the crown prince?"

After hearing this, Li Shimin was speechless for a while.

He has slept in the same bed with Empress Changsun for more than ten years, and Empress Changsun is naturally clear in his mind.

At this time, Empress Zhangsun said in a daze: "Your Majesty, you are the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, you want to choose a good successor, the concubine understands.

But then... they are all our children!"

"You let them have a try, it's okay to have a high or low level.

But you can't drive them to a dead end, do you still want to repeat what happened more than ten years ago?"

When Li Shimin heard this, his face suddenly changed: extremely bleak.

Li Shimin still has lingering fears when he thinks back about the incident under the Xuanwu Gate more than ten years ago.

The world knows that Li Shimin relied on the battle of Xuanwumen to ascend to the throne of the emperor, but what the world does not know is how critical the situation at Xuanwumen was that day.

At that time, Li Shimin had already fallen to the power of the DPRK, and even the General Tiance's mansion had been demolished, and the people under his command had been transferred to other places, such as Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.

Moreover, Zhang Liang, Li Shimin's bodyguard, was caught and tortured by the former prince Li Jiancheng, which almost leaked the secret.

And just a few days before the battle of Xuanwumen, the concubine Wan sent a message from the trustee, revealing that a few days later, the abolished prince and the king of Qi were going to attack Li Shimin when they were discussing matters at Xuanwumen.

In just a few days, Li Shimin made a decisive decision and decided to counterattack.

At that time, he only relied on the five hundred guards in the palace of Qin Wang, plus the inner servants who had been placed in the palace many years ago.

Coupled with the information of Concubine Wan, there is only one chance of life.

On the day of Xuanwu Gate, Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin were responsible for defending the Qin palace.

And Yuchi Gong, Hou Junji, Zhang Gongjin and others followed Li Shimin into the palace and ambushed at Xuanwu Gate.

At that time, the situation was very critical, and the abolished prince was also a smart person. As soon as he saw the change of the guards on the city wall of Xuanwu Gate, he immediately fled.

And Li Shimin was chasing after him and almost died. If Yuchigong hadn't actively rescued the driver, Li Shimin might have died earlier than the abolished prince.

This is also the reason why Yuchigong was classified as a general of the town.

After Li Shimin's Xuanwu Gate succeeded, he not only killed the abolished prince and the king of Qi, but also drove out all their descendants.

The prince's five 55 sons and the Qi king's five 55 sons were all guillotined by Li.

Although Li Shimin's heart is like steel, but when he thinks of the mourning before his ten nephews died, Li Shimin is not for a long time.

If the battle between Wan Kuan and Li Chengqian is like this in the future, then all the dead will be his own descendants, and Li Shimin's heart is tight.

But after a while, Li Shimin's expression turned back.

"Guanyin maid, do you know that something happened in Furong Garden yesterday?"

Empress Changsun was very surprised. She was having such a serious conversation with Li Shimin. Why did he suddenly change the subject? Empress Changsun shook her head for unknown reasons, while Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Last night in Furong Garden, the two sons of Duke Ying made a big scandal. First they were stung by bees and turned into pigs' heads. Then they hugged a tree naked and did indecent acts. Then they were beaten by Chang Le in a rage. ."

After hearing this, Empress Changsun showed an unbelievable expression on her face: "This literary friendship is a matter of elegance, how can such absurd things happen?"

But Empress Zhangsun thought about it carefully and immediately understood.

"Your Majesty, the two sons of Duke Ying have never been filial, and this Kuan'er is on good terms with Duke Ying's daughter. I am afraid that Kuan'er is venting his anger for his crush."

Then Li Shimin nodded: "That's right, Kuan'er made an extraordinary move and unknowingly took care of the Wu brothers.

The brothers of the Wu family have suffered so much, and now they are still squatting in the prison."

"Then Ying Guogong has been on the bed for two years, and he handed me a book this morning, hoping that I will open up and let his two children go."

At this time, Empress Zhangsun asked with a solemn expression: "Why did Your Majesty mention this, this is just a joke between children."

"Guanyin maid, what I want to say is that Kuan'er may be different from me."

After hearing this, Empress Changsun's face suddenly became startled, she didn't know what Li Shimin was going to say.

"Guanyin maid, I was at odds with the former crown prince, and I had no choice but to take risks.

But Kuan'er is much more clever than I, and without the use of force, he can knock you down without knowing it."

Li Shimin sighed at this moment: "I, Li Shimin, are incompetent, so I can only do my best.

But Kuan'er is resourceful and resourceful, he has countless ways to win, and he doesn't necessarily have to fight hard."

"Your Majesty, have you already concluded that Kuan'er is better than Chengqian?"

"Guanyin maid, don't you think? Kuan'er is the eldest son. He has been living abroad for more than ten years, but he has a lot of skills. Isn't this God bless you and me?"

"Your Majesty, Kuan'er and Chengqian are still undecided about who is older and who is younger."

Then Li Shimin smiled after hearing this: "Call Kuan'er and Chengqian in front of you and take a look, and you can see who is older and who is younger at a glance."

"Your Majesty, since you have already identified Kuan'er in your heart, why should you let Chengqian suffer? If you have already decided to let Kuan'er inherit the throne, then abolish Chengqian as soon as possible, so that he can be a rich man for the rest of his life."

"Guanyin maid, this matter is not so simple.

Even if I want to change the prince, it is very difficult to do so.

How many people in this dynasty support Li Chengqian, and Kuan Er doesn't even have a surname of Li now, how can I make him the crown prince?"

"Then what the hell is your majesty thinking, do you want our children to kill each other?"

"Guanyin maid, of course I didn't mean that.

I am waiting for Kuan'er, Kuan'er's ability is above me, and he can solve the things that I can't solve now.

I can't convince those... Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, Kuan'er can."

"If that's the case, then His Majesty should tell Kuan'er earlier and tell him his identity."

"Guanyin maid, now the court has to deal with the Turks, this is the top priority.

If the Turkic nail is removed, the court will be much quieter.

Only then will I have the energy to deal with the Prince's affairs."

The Empress Changsun sat silently on the bed, looking at the poems she copied in front of her, she couldn't help but have mixed feelings in her heart.

Chapter 178

In the Hall of Nectar, Li Shimin was sitting next to Empress Zhangsun, also looking at the poem written by Wan Kuan, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Sometimes I feel that this Kuan'er is... a treasure given to me by God, Kuan'er is brilliant in writing and skillful in his methods, and even the things he will make are easy.

There is no way I can turn a blind eye to such a talent."

"That's why His Majesty has long decided to let Kuan Er inherit the throne, right?"

Empress Zhangsun asked with tears in her eyes.

"Guanyin maid, I was actually hesitant at first, but Kuan'er has done more and more things, and I have become more and more aware that handing over the throne to Li Chengqian is actually a kind of torture to him."

Li Shimin sighed: "Chengqian has such a formidable brother, his position as emperor is not stable, if he wants to be stable, he must kill Kuan'er.

Guanyin maid, do you want Kuan'er to die?"

"Of course the concubine doesn't want to, but if Kuan'er inherits the throne, what will he do to Li Chengqian?"

Li Shimin smiled after hearing this: "I don't know what will happen to Kuan'er, but Kuan'er can completely restrain Li Chengqian without taking Li Chengqian's life.

Kuan'er has the ability and the means, as long as he ascends the throne, no one can shake his position."

"Your Majesty, but Kuan'er is still so young, and there are no ministers around to support him.

It's a bit too cruel for you to involve him in this dispute."

"Guanyin maid, for the emperor, it is much better to know these things sooner than later."

Empress Zhangsun was stunned: "If I hadn't met at the top of Qunyu Mountain, I would have met Yaotai under the moon.

Your Majesty, now Kuan'er is still thinking about those juvenile loves, how do you let him fight for the throne?"

"To be an emperor, you can only have pets, not love.

Since he likes this girl of Yingguo's family, I will reward him, but I will never allow him to ruin a big thing because of a woman."

When Empress Zhangsun heard this, she smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, the concubine only understands now.

It turns out that even His Majesty can't do things, but let Kuan'er do it, even His Majesty has no way to deal with those... courtiers, but you let Kuan'er deal with them, Your Majesty is so cruel ...!!!!"

Li Shimin also followed with a wry smile: "Guanyin maid, it has only been more than ten years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and the family is still huge.

There are wolves outside, and the courtroom is full of loopholes. Even if I, Li Shimin, have great skills, I will not be able to push the Tang Dynasty to its prosperity in my lifetime."

"I, Li Shimin, must choose a prince who is powerful enough. Only in this way, the Tang Dynasty can continue."

"Your Majesty, Kuan'er is just a child!"

"Guanyin maid, born in the emperor's family, can't be regarded as ordinary people.

Kuan'er is a child, but as my Li Shimin's child, he has to do some things."

Empress Zhangsun sighed and stopped talking, while Li Shimin put away the verses in front of him, and sat quietly.

"Guanyin maid, Miss Cui's family went to Furong Court yesterday.
