The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Li Shimin had made great achievements in battle back then, and he was also Li Yuan's preferred successor.

However, the Five Surnames and Qiwang knew that Li Shimin was talented and ambitious and would never give them much room for development, so these people united and pushed Li Jiancheng to the position of prince, and began to strengthen Li Jiancheng's power so that Li Jiancheng would not be a short-term prince.

In addition, they also facilitated the cooperation between Prince Li Jiancheng and King Qi Li Yuanji to jointly deal with King Li Shimin of Qin.

Judging from the situation at that time, their steps can be said to be step by step. Li Shimin was forced to have no ability to fight back. If things go on like this, Li Shimin's advantage will be slowly digested.

When they thought they were going to succeed, these people began to mobilize Li Shimin's generals to keep them away from Li Shimin, and then attack Li Shimin. There was no problem with the plan, but they forgot that Li Shimin was a daring person.

Just when all the plans were about to succeed, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Incident, directly killing his eldest brother and third brother, which was considered to have broken off an arm of Wu Xing Qi Wang. Knowing how much manpower and material resources were invested, they did not offer effective resistance during Li Shimin's ascension to the throne.

From that time on, there was no way to mend the rift between the two parties. It was just that Li Shimin was too weak at the time, and Wu Xing Qi Wang also suffered heavy losses in that political struggle, so everyone ostensibly shook hands and made peace.

Now that both sides had recharged their batteries, a battle began again, but Li Xiang's sudden appearance made both sides a little confused.

But it's a good thing for Li Shimin. Originally, he had to go out and face Wu Xing Qi Wang, but now his grandson can come forward.

For Wu Xing Qiwang, they could have faced Li Shimin directly, but now they need to go through Li Xiang first. Even if they win, they will suffer heavy losses, and they have no chance of winning against Li Shimin.

So they adjusted their strategy in time, hoping to reach an agreement with Li Xiang. Even if the two sides fought, they would not let them suffer, and in the end, Li Shimin or other princes took advantage.

Cui Sanye thinks he can succeed. If Li Xiang uses all his strength to fight to the death with the Cui family, what if Li Shimin doesn't support Li Xiang? By then, Li Xiang will be just a polished commander and still has no hope of getting that big position.

If Li Xiang is dedicated to the Tang Dynasty, then Cui Sanye's plan will not succeed, but if Li Xiang only has a little selfish idea, then Cui Sanye can adjust his strategy and push Li Xiang forward.

In the process of promoting Li Xiang to ascend the throne, they can also get some handle on Li Xiang and use this as a threat to continue the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes for decades.

Of course the plan was very good, but whether it could be implemented was another matter. When Li Xiang woke up in the morning and saw the invitation in Qian Ping's hand, he had a look of sarcasm on his face.

You are a commoner, even though you are one of the four elders of the Cui family, but just based on this post, you asked me to visit you. Isn't this too ridiculous?

"Your Highness, not to mention this Third Master Cui, even if Cui Yun City posted a message, all the princes in the imperial city would go there..."

Qian Ping said with a grimace at the side that Cui Yuncheng used to be the person in charge of the Cui family in the capital. If he held a banquet, some of the princes' children would even come over to accompany them. This is the ability of the most wealthy family.

"What you are talking about was in the past. From now on, I will set the rules. But if they are willing to post, the assassination should have nothing to do with them. Let the people who investigated the Cui family come back to continue investigating the other families."

Li Xiang said disdainfully. Although the people next to him were very confident, everyone was still a little scared. This was the Cui family, the most wealthy family in the world. It was said that when Emperor Sui Yang was at his peak, the head of the Cui family celebrated his birthday, and Emperor Sui Yang still kissed him. Of course, no one has confirmed this. Maybe the Cui family made it up themselves.

"Xiang'er, you have to go."

As soon as Li Xiang finished speaking, Li Chengqian's voice came from outside. Li Xiang was having breakfast, so he quickly packed his clothes and welcomed his father in. Even though he was a biological father and son, Tianjia There are also various rules.

"Why did the father say this, and the son is still afraid of him?"

Li Xiang welcomed Li Chengqian to the main seat.

"Let me tell you something. Back then, your second uncle was just like you, but he offended the Bolingcui family, which was a level worse than yours. But do you know how they dealt with your second uncle? ?”

Li Chengqian sighed. Although he hated Li Tai very much, when it came to this matter, it was also the first time that the prince of his generation bowed to the five surnames and seven hopes.

Seeing Li Xiang shake his head, Li Chengqian continued.

"They used two methods. One method was to make your second uncle die in the Imperial Manor, and all the tenants committed suicide. The second method was to entangle a group of great scholars, saying that your second uncle went against the destiny of heaven and did strange things. I have offended God..."

Li Xiang was a little confused after hearing these words, but after Li Chengqian's explanation, Li Xiang generally understood that the tenants in Li Tai's imperial village committed suicide, which was the result of bribery by the five surnames and Qi Wang, but Li Tai could not explain clearly. Because the mouthpiece was not in his hands, although he also bribed a group of literati, they were all young people and their credibility was not high.

The people under the control of the Five Surnames and Qi Wang were all eminent scholars in the imperial court. They kept making up ghost theories, saying that Li Tai's palace was haunted at night, which frightened the tenants to commit suicide. The death of one or two people would definitely not affect Li Tai, but thirty Two lives...

At that time, in order to calm down the turmoil, Li Tai had to privately find the person in charge of the Cui family in the capital at that time. No one knew about the transaction at that time, but the turmoil soon calmed down, but those who knew about it You can also see that even if you are a prince, you can't do anything to the Cui family, and you have them in their hands.

"I know you are very powerful, and you are not afraid of them if they come in the open, but if they come in secret, you are really no match for them, so my father lets you go."

Li Chengqian even had a commanding tone when he spoke.

You must know that since Li Xiang was reborn until now, although he respects Li Chengqian, he has done some ridiculous things, which also made Li Chengqian and Li Xiang talk with a hint of discussion, but the last sentence had no meaning in any way.

"You still don't know how powerful they are, go ahead!"

Li Chengqian said earnestly, and then hammered his useless leg. He didn't want anything to happen to his son...
