Emperor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1169 Abdication with preconditions

"Besides, which of the things Yang Jie did after this was not for the inheritance of the Tang Dynasty for thousands of generations?" Yin Shi's face flashed a gentle color.

"In the end, you and your concubine both watched Yang Jie grow up. Don't you know what kind of child Yang Jie is?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin fell into contemplation, and the scenes from the past were quickly skipped in his mind.

One thing, two things, three things... Countless things.

"Could it be that the royal father thought that this son was doing this for his own selfishness?"

"Is not it?"

"No, Father, you are wrong. What my son is doing is for the common people in the world, and it is a bigger wish!"

The same thing happened on New Year's Eve. On the last New Year's Eve, Li You's conversation with himself now vividly appeared in Li Shimin's mind.

"My son hopes that the Tang Dynasty can truly become strong, and even in the face of natural and man-made disasters, it will be able to persevere and re-emerge countless times! From now on, I, the Tang Dynasty, will never have the humiliation of being a minister and paying tribute and seeking peace with relatives. To become the most dignified country in the world!"

Li You's words at that time were so firm, every word seemed to hit Li Shimin's heart.

"Erchen hopes that the Tang Dynasty in the future can become the pride of every people, so that the common people are all proud of being a Tang Dynasty! I hope that the Tang Dynasty in the future will be able to be the ruler of the world, stand strong in the East, and do everything possible. Show me the greatness of Tang Dynasty!"

"This is the dream of my son, and it is also the grand wish of my son to work hard for it - I hope that one day, I can see the emperor of the Tang Dynasty come to the world, come to congratulate me from all directions, and all countries come to court!"

As if watching a movie, Li Shimin pondered the scene engraved in his heart in his memory for a long time.

"The emperor's ingenuity is intriguing, but... in this, there may still be things worthy of my belief...ˇ!"

Li Shimin suddenly picked up Yin Shi and kissed him fiercely, then said with a smile, "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have almost walked into a misunderstanding."

Looking back on the past, Li Shimin almost immediately concluded that his son, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li You and Li Yangjie would never do such a premeditated thing for the throne!

Even if Li You really wants to get the throne, he will be upright, instead of using such despicable means.

"Your Majesty wants to understand."

Yin Shi was also well aware of the reason why the harem was not allowed to take part in politics, so she stopped talking and fell asleep in Li Shimin's arms.

……

In the early morning of the second day, to Li Shimin's surprise, he slept comfortably all night.

When the sun shines through the window lattice, he only feels comfortable all over.

Seeing that Yin Shi in his arms was still sleeping, Li Shimin couldn't bear to wake her up, so he quietly got off the bed, dressed and left the harem.

Attendant Zhao stood outside the palace early, his face was not good-looking.

After he was healed yesterday, he couldn't sleep, and the pair of panda eyes became the most striking feature on his face.

"Your Majesty, you..."

Looking at Li Shimin's appearance as if nothing was wrong, the servant Zhao almost had to doubt his own eyes.

He couldn't believe it, how could Li Shimin, who was so angry yesterday, become so calm today?

Li Shimin nodded to him and said, "Place the Taiji Temple."

Attendant Zhao hurriedly nodded in response, and arranged for several little eunuchs to prepare Li Shimin's chariot and take him to the Taiji Hall.

Today's Taiji Hall is unusually quiet. There is no chatter between the officials and officials like in the past. Everyone has a sad face and bears the same panda eyes as Zhao's servant.

Almost all of them didn't fall asleep last night, even Cheng Yaojin, who has always been known for his big heart.

The wind and rain are coming, and the building is full of wind, and no one knows what will happen today.

Whether it was the emperor's concession, or whether the emperor ordered a bloody storm to wash away the power of Tang Prince Li You, is unknown.

And the most important thing is that if things go to the worst stage, no one thinks that His Royal Highness will be weak enough to be slaughtered by others. On the contrary, His Royal Highness's power is already huge to an unimaginable level!

Therefore, at that time, it is possible that the Tang court may fall apart because of the war between Li Shimin and Li You!

Everyone was trembling, it was a move about the supreme power, and their lives were hanging by a thread.

"...What's the matter, why are you all so lackluster?"

Sitting on the dragon chair, Li Shimin asked unexpectedly like no one else.

"……what?"

Civil and military officials are all stupid, why is this time, Your Majesty is still interested in joking?

Seeing the confused and unexpected expressions on the faces of Wen and Wu of the Manchu Dynasty, Li Shimin even showed a smile.

"I know what you are thinking about in your mind," Li Shimin said smoothly, "After thinking about it last night, I actually have a certain number in my heart."

Has Your Majesty made a decision? ?

Everyone held their breath, this decision about the Tang Dynasty and their fate is about to be announced (good promise)!

"I think what Shi Wen said yesterday still has some truth... Therefore, I plan to abdicate and let the sages have the preconditions!"

"Varied……?!"

The several important ministers who were secretly talking yesterday all had expressions of surprise, and the boulder hanging in their hearts finally fell to the ground!

However, more officials and officials didn't know what it means to "abandon the throne and let the virtuous with preconditions."

As long as it wasn't a bloody and bloody confrontation-like transfer of power, then for these important officials of the imperial court, there was not much life-threatening at all.
