Great Tang Southern Emperor

However, in the eyes of outsiders, these credits belong to Li Jing and Li Ji. Li Zhen is just a name. Although he may have contributed, but if it is said that these are all his credits, few people are convinced.

In addition, there are some technical contributions, but most of these contributions have military purposes, and many of them are unknown to outsiders...

The only thing outsiders know about Li Zhen is that Li Zhenchao can make money, and he can make a lot of money.Whether it is the ability to make money or the ability to research and develop science and technology, they are the things that Shihlin hates the most - besides, they themselves hate Li Zhen very much. If there is news that Li Zhen is appointed as the prince at this time, I believe the entire Shihlin will explode Yes, even Li Shimin had to consider their opinions.

Now Li Zhen is not short of military, political and financial resources. The only thing he lacks is a credit, a credit that is big enough to shut up the entire scholarly community... As long as he can make such a great contribution, Li Shimin will take this opportunity to kill him again. If he becomes the crown prince, then even Shilin will have to hold his nose to recognize him.

At this time, Li Zhen personally led the army to attack Nanyang...

And depending on the situation, the current progress is good. Although he encountered a lot of troubles at the beginning, with his efforts, he has overcome them all.The young army has also gradually adapted to the environmental conditions in Nanyang, and the attack speed will be greatly increased. Now that Linyi has been wiped out, the next target has been determined...

As long as Li Zhen really completes the feat of sweeping Nanyang and expands the country for three thousand miles, then Li Shimin will definitely make Li Zhen the prince. No one could say a word against it.

This is also the main reason why the aristocratic family and Confucianism are anxious to fight against Li Zhen-Li Zhen is not the same as them. If Li Zhen really becomes the prince, or even becomes the emperor, then it is conceivable that the entire Confucianism and the aristocratic family will suffer. Hit hard.Even if no other tricks are used, as long as Li Zhen no longer reuses the aristocratic family and Confucian children, their influence will inevitably decline. As long as this process lasts for more than 20 years... who knows you?Wentian Shuyuan is the best place to be an official.

However, Li Zhen has this ability, and the possibility is very high - Wen Tian Shuyuan is continuously cultivating talents for him, and hundreds of outstanding students graduate from there every year. A capable official, with another seven or eight years of experience, will basically be recruited into the court as an official... At that time, where will there be a foothold for Confucianism of the aristocratic family?

Similarly, this is also the reason why Cheng Yaojin supports Li Zhen openly.Seeing that Li Zhen's feat is about to be completed, if he doesn't submit his certificate of honor at this time, when will he wait?

What's more, Cheng Yaojin's sons are also friends with Li Zhen, and now they are working in Tiance Mansion. They are already destined to be tied to Li Zhen's chariot. Only when Li Zhen inherits the throne can the Cheng family continue. Prosperity... Even for the future of his own family, Cheng Yaojin must spare no effort to help Li Zhen.

"Cheng Yaojin, you are presumptuous, how important is the matter of the crown prince, and how can you decide it alone?" Li Zhengdao was also anxious, and he stood up and sternly reprimanded him.

If Li Zhen is really established as the prince, then the aristocratic family can only take the last step in order not to be eliminated in the future.but……

At that time, no matter the success or failure of the action, it will inevitably cause a fierce reaction from Datang. The family will confront Datang, and may even go to war with Datang head-on-although the family has the power to subvert Datang, the fact is that really?Datang is not easy to mess with. With the blood alliance and Confucian forces, is it true that they will be able to defeat Datang?

Even if Datang is really overthrown, the result of the aristocratic family may not be so strong - at least it must be a serious injury, and it may completely decline and be replaced by a new aristocratic family. This is not what they want to see arrived.

Therefore, unless forced, the family will never take this step, but if it is really forced - the rabbit will bite people in a hurry, let alone the hungry wolf of the family?

Chapter 460 You Betrayed...

Chapter 233 You Betrayed...

Therefore, if Li Zhen is really established as the prince, then the family must take action.Because once Li Zhen is really established as the prince, his position as the prince will be extremely stable, and it is almost a certainty that he will become a great treasure in the future.

And once Li Zhen really became the emperor, the first thing he would do would be to clean up the inside—the inside must be settled first when fighting against the outside world.As for who is inside, you can guess without guessing.

It's a pity that Li Zhengdao's scolding was too weak, Cheng Yaojin asked tit for tat: "Why can't I say it? Let me ask you, among the current princes, who is better than you when it comes to virtuousness and contribution to the Tang Dynasty?" His Royal Highness the King of Shangyue?"

Cui Luan said loudly: "It was all given to him by the heavenly book, and it was given to him by Immortal Zhenyuan. The credit belongs to Immortal Zhenyuan, not King Yue."

Yuchi Jingde followed closely and asked back: "Then why didn't Immortal Zhenyuan give the book to others, but to His Royal Highness the King of Yue? What's more, even if Immortal Zhenyuan gave the book to you, you would dedicate it to the court so selflessly ?"

"Of course I will."

"Can you swear with your conscience?" Fang Xuanling asked.

"I..." Cui Luan was dumbfounded. People at this time are still very superstitious. They believe that there are gods above their heads. How dare he make such an oath?What if you are punished?

"Hmph..." Li Shimin snorted dissatisfied, feeling very upset.

"Father, my son thinks that the eighth younger brother is wise and powerful, and has made unparalleled contributions. The position of prince must belong to the eighth younger brother. If the eighth younger brother becomes the prince, the son has nothing to say. Otherwise, if someone else becomes the prince, the son will be the first prince." One objected."

"Wow~"

The ministers were in an uproar again, and even Changsun Wuji closed his eyes in despair, because the one who said this was none other than the Fourth Prince Wei Wang Li Tai... But...

How is this possible?

This is the unanimous thought of everyone at the moment, you are all princes, you should be competitors, we are planning to support you to the top, but you are good, and you will directly stand on Li Zhen's side... How can you play this? Son?

"Qingque, you..." Li Shimin was also shocked by Li Tai's words, and really couldn't understand.

He knew that Li Tai had ideas about the throne, and because of the crown prince, he had a bloody battle with Li Chengqian. Now that Li Chengqian has been abolished, it stands to reason that Li Tai should be brave and diligent, and go further to fight for the crown prince. , Why did he seem to be one step away from the last step, why did he give up?Not only did he give up, but he also recommended Li Zhen, which... is too unbelievable...

"I think my fourth brother is right, and my father and I also think that it is best for the eighth younger brother to be the crown prince." Li Ke naturally would not let Li Taizhuo be more beautiful than before, so he quickly stood up and said, "Please forgive me." Hai'er's rebellious words are also the truth in Hai'er's heart. Among all the princes, there are not many people who are capable of competing for the position of Crown Prince.

Among them, the eldest brother has been demoted. Among the remaining four, the ninth brother is still young and can basically be excluded. Among the remaining three, the son thinks that he is no less than the fourth brother in terms of ability, knowledge and courage. I believe that the fourth brother I also thought the same way, no matter which of the two of us takes the position, the other will not be convinced.

Only the eighth younger brother can not only far surpass the son and the fourth younger brother, but also has the protection of the Great Immortal Zhenyuan, and he is also an extremely intelligent person... Only the eighth younger brother is established as the prince, that is the real hope of everyone, not just the son's submission Don't worry, I believe that the rest of the brothers will not have a little opinion.

Therefore, the son begged the father, whether it was for the sake of the world, or to appease the thoughts that the sons should not have-the son begged the father to make the eighth brother the crown prince...the son has no complaints or regrets. "

Li Tai knelt down and shouted: "I have no complaints or regrets..."

"Ke'er, Qingque, you..." Li Shimin was very moved. Because of the change of Xuanwu Gate, what he hated the most was that his sons and brothers would fight each other. He knows better than anyone how tragic and painful it is for brothers to fight each other.

Because of this, in history, Li Chengqian and Li Tai fell in love and killed each other for several years, but they ended up dying together, and Li Zhi took advantage of it in vain.The reason why Li Zhi was chosen was not because of how talented Li Zhi was, but because Li Shimin knew too well that almost all of his sons were not fuel-efficient lamps. No matter who succeeded in the future, the rest of the brothers would not better off.

Only Li Zhi is better in this aspect, at least he has no shortcomings in benevolence and filial piety, and he will not embarrass other brothers. This is also the most important reason why Li Shimin established Li Zhi-Tai Li, Cheng Qian, and King Jin did not exist; The King of Jin established the throne, and the Thais took over the throne without any harm.

Li Shimin saw clearly that if Li Tai was made the crown prince, neither Li Chengqian nor Li Zhi would survive, but if Li Zhi was made, both Li Chengqian and Li Tai would survive.History has also proved that Li Shimin's decision was correct. Li Chengqian died earlier than Li Shimin, let alone this. It died when I was a year old.

This is also what surprised Li Shimin the most. His two unequivocal sons unanimously recommended Li Zhen as the crown prince. The respectful brotherhood and brotherhood shown in it made Li Shimin very happy: "Hahaha... ...Okay, okay, you are all good sons of the father, the father is very happy...hahaha..."

Seeing this, Du Ruhui was overjoyed, and hurriedly stood up and asked, "Your Majesty...you mean..."

To be honest, Li Shimin was really a little moved, but after thinking about it, he felt that it would be better to wait for Li Zhen to make great achievements before he canonize, at least no one would gossip at that time.

"My dear friends are right, but after all, Zhen'er is far away in Nanyang, so let's put it down for now, let's talk about it when Zhen'er comes back."

What is said... What is the difference between this and directly agreeing?It's not just about the time, sooner or later.

"The emperor is wise..." Du Ruhui was overjoyed. He knew that Li Zhen's crown prince position was already a three-fingered egg—it was a sure thing. As long as Li Zhen came back victorious and became the crown prince with great victories, forgive anyone. No words came out.

However, this is also the most dangerous period of time. It is impossible for the aristocratic family to allow Li Zhen to become the crown prince so smoothly. They are bound to make big moves in the future, and it is not impossible to even send people to assassinate Li Zhen... It seems that the next For a while, be careful...

Thinking of this in his heart, Du Ru squeezed a jade pendant on his waist in the dark. This is a jade pendant, but it is not just a jade pendant...

Chapter 461

Chapter 234

"Your Majesty can't... Since ancient times, the eldest son has been established. His Royal Highness King Yue is neither the eldest son nor the first son. If he is rashly established as the heir, I am afraid that he will be opposed by the people of the world." This is the last move that Li Zhengdao thought of. If this If he can't persuade Li Shimin with one move, then he really has no choice but to admit defeat and face Li Shimin's horrible punishment.But this trick is not so easy to crack.

Cui Luan seemed to have grasped at straws, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Li's words are justified. It is not in accordance with the etiquette to make the king of Yue the heir."

"Please think again, Your Majesty, the King of Yue is not suitable to be the crown prince."

"Your Majesty, although you can forcibly support the King of Yue, but can you stop everyone in the world?"

"Although His Royal Highness King Yue has made meritorious deeds, he has also made mistakes. It is not the capital of a king..."

"..."

For a while, all the people who opposed Li Zhen's alliance became active again. I have to say that Li Zhengdao's reason was too good. He directly blocked Li Shimin's decision in terms of etiquette. Even Li Shimin had no way to deal with it, but he didn't want to Compromising with these people, he fell into a dilemma for a while.
