Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

At this time, within a hundred steps of the Wangbei Pavilion and even the Wangbei Pavilion, there are only His Majesty Li Er and Guo Ye.

Before Guo Ye's butt was hot, His Majesty Li Er said with a smile: "Guo Qing, although I went to the hunting ground today out of interest, I really did not go in vain. Haha, I am very happy, very good."

Guo Ye nodded with a smile and said yes, waiting for His Majesty Li Er's next words, because His Majesty Li Er just asked him to accompany him into the palace to discuss matters, and it was definitely not as simple as expressing emotion.

Sure enough, His Majesty Li Er didn't pause and asked, "Guo Qing, the King of Shu has changed a lot recently. He not only has the style of a gentleman, but also has a heart of benevolence. I want to make the King of Shu the crown prince. What do you think?"

puff~

Guo Ye's butt slipped, and he fell to the ground, unable to react for a long time.

Obviously, he was frightened by His Majesty Li Er's words...!

Chapter 901 Is this none of my business?

Li Ke, the king of Shu, is the prince?

Isn't His Majesty Li Er trying to self-destruct Tang Guozuo?

Bullshit, really bullshit, this is a big joke.

Guo Ye fell to the ground and his first reaction was not to get up, but waved his hands and loudly stopped him: "Your Majesty, you can't do it, you can't do it!"

"Well?"

His Majesty Li Er saw Guo Ye's reaction so strongly, he couldn't help frowning, and asked in a deep voice: "Could it be that Guo Qing is not optimistic about Ke'er becoming the heir apparent of the Tang Dynasty? I had a dispute with Ke'er in the past, and I still can't let it go? Guo Qing, tell me, why do you object... Hey, what are you doing sitting on the ground? Get up, the dignified ceremonial minister Zuo Shilang answered, and unexpectedly How decent is it to sit on the ground?"

Guo Ye calmed down and calmed down, patted his buttocks and slowly got up from the ground, several words flashed in his mind to deal with His Majesty Li Er.

You can't tell His Majesty Li Er straightforwardly, Your Majesty, your three sons Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Ke will not be able to inherit your lineage in the future.

But he couldn't say anything about Li Ke, the King of Shu, in front of His Majesty Li Er, and say something about how Li Ke was eager for quick success and quick benefits, and how the city was extremely deep.Because now His Majesty Li Er has greatly changed his impression of Li Ke through what happened in the hunting ground today, and his impression of Li Ke is very good.

If I say that Li Ke is not good in front of the emperor, it will only arouse the resentment of His Majesty Li Er, and it will only have a counterproductive effect. Maybe His Majesty Li Er will draft an order to announce it to the world on the spot , Li Ke was made the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

Besides, His Majesty Li Er also said just now that he and Li Ke have long had a quarrel, if he speaks ill of Li Ke again, wouldn't that lead him into a pit, and make His Majesty Li Er feel that he is a small-bellied chicken intestine who coerces personal grievances and abolishes the public to vent his anger? ?

"Guo Qing?"

His Majesty Li Er looked at Guo Ye who had not spoken for a long time with a little dissatisfaction, and asked, "Tell me, why do you object to my making Ke'er the crown prince?"

Here comes the urging again.

Just when Guo Ye couldn't find a suitable reason to persuade His Majesty Li Er to change his mind, he suddenly thought, Nima, who am I, what kind of national event is it to establish a prince?Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and even Yu Shinan didn't express their opinions, why am I so anxious?Are you rushing to make a fuss?

In his opinion, as long as His Majesty Li Er reveals his intention to make Li Ke the crown prince, he will definitely attract strong opposition from the ministers of the court and the central government. Among them, the loudest and most violent voices of opposition must be led by Changsun Wuji and others. The Tiance Mansion belonged to the former ministers, and even the entire Guanlong family's interest class.

Not for anything else, just because Li Ke's mother's surname is Yang and not his eldest grandson, and because Li Ke has half of the blood of the former Sui Yang family flowing through his body.

Li Ke's position will definitely hurt the interests of the former ministers of the Tiance Mansion and the entire Guanlong family.As long as Li Ke is in power, these people will be the first to suffer.

Changsun Wuji, the uncle of the country, bears the brunt of it. How could they let Li Ke ascend to the top?

Therefore, Li Ke is destined to be a disaster, and His Majesty Li Er's proposal is destined to encounter unimaginable obstacles.

In an instant, the context in Guo Ye's mind became very clear. He didn't need to rush forward at all for this matter. Someone who came after him would catch up and block the bullet for him.

If he wants to prevent Li Ke from ascending to the throne, he only needs to do one thing, and that is to turn passive into active, and let His Majesty Li Er spread the matter out, let more people know that His Majesty Li Er has This thought is good.

For the rest, there is no need for him to intervene.

Suddenly, he already had an idea in his mind, and it was a bad idea.

I saw him dryly laugh twice, and explained: "Your Majesty, how could this humble minister coerce private reports to the public? Moreover, there is no embarrassment between the humble minister and His Royal Highness the King of Shu, let alone personal grievances. Back then, in the Governor's Mansion of the Shu State What happened online was just a spat, it was just a disagreement, no big deal."

His Majesty Li Er looked at Guo Ye suspiciously, and asked: "Then I said just now that I want to make Ke'er the crown prince, but you yelled a few times in a row to make it impossible. Isn't this an objection? What is the reason for your objection, Guo Qing?" What is it?"

Guo Ye cupped his hands slightly, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the yelling that I can't do it doesn't mean that His Highness Lishu King is not allowed to be the crown prince, but that His Majesty can't talk about the appointment of the crown prince so hastily. Think about it, Your Majesty. It's just the left servant of the Ministry of Rites. There are ministers on the top of the minister, there are six ministers, there are three princes and nine ministers, as well as the royal princes, county kings, and even the elders of the current dynasty. Compared with them, the humble minister is too insignificant .

And the establishment of a crown prince is a major national event, which is related to the Tang Dynasty and the inheritance. These bigwigs on top of Weichen didn't say anything about this kind of matter, but Weichen expressed their opinions before them. Isn't this inappropriate?If the time comes to let them know, Your Majesty, forgive me for boldly saying that Your Majesty is going to put the subjects in a position where everyone spurns and loathes them. "

"Oh haha……"

His Majesty Li Er suddenly came to his senses, and finally understood why Guo Ye was nervous and worried just now, and then smiled, "So that's the case! In this case, I am Meng Lang, and I will naturally discuss this matter with all my ministers and colleagues. The members of the royal family are discussing. But now behind closed doors, there are only two of us, the monarch and his ministers, Guo Qing, you can tell me the truth, what do you think I will make Ke'er the crown prince?"

Nima, you still have to listen to yourself.

However, Guo Ye has now heard the meaning of His Majesty Li Er, and sooner or later he will open up and discuss with the officials in the court, so it does not make much sense for him to support or oppose.Because as long as this matter is involved, there will naturally be people, no, there should be several very powerful forces to oppose Li Ke's supremacy, and I am afraid that even the old emperor Li Yuan, who is hiding in the deep palace, will be trembling on crutches Come out against it.

After figuring out the joints, Guo Ye simply coaxed His Majesty Li Er to be happy, clapped his hands pretending to be generous and said: "Your Majesty, this matter, I must raise my hands to approve it. After all, there will be no prince in the country. Sorry, right?"

His Majesty Li Er was overjoyed when he heard the words, and walked down happily, patted Guo Ye on the shoulder and praised: "Guo Qing, who knows me! Look, the king of Shu has a compassionate heart and a benevolent heart. In time, after I have cultivated it painstakingly, even if I can't be a successful king, it is still more than enough to be a successful one. This kid, yes, is much better than his two elder brothers."

Guo Ye secretly belittled, you can be happy and happy now, just enjoy yourself, but don't take it too seriously.How could Changsun Wuji and the others allow you to get your wish?Even if you dislike Changsun Wuji and the others, you can't even listen to the words of the Supreme Emperor, right?Even if you are a fan of the authorities, how could anyone in the Li royal family hand over Li Tang's country and society to a person with the blood of the former Sui Dynasty?Don't forget that Li Tang overthrew the former Sui Dynasty, and the Li family of the Tang Dynasty and the Yang family of the former Sui Dynasty had a knot that could never be resolved.

After thinking about it, Guo Ye said with a smile: "That is, that is, if the emperor supports it, the humble minister must devote himself to death and support it with all his hands and feet."

He didn't say the subtext of the second half of the sentence, but said silently in his heart, of course it was just spiritual support.

But His Majesty Li Er was very happy, and he was not as thoughtful as Guo Ye thought. He waved his hand at Guo Ye and deliberately explained: "Guo Qing, please don't publicize this matter for the time being. I will discuss it with all the ministers tomorrow morning. Alright, Guo Aiqing has worked hard today." Now, you go back home and rest first."

Guo Ye said yes, and then exited the Wangbei Pavilion.

Just a few steps out of the Wangbei Pavilion, he heard His Majesty Li Er shouting happily in the Wangbei Pavilion: "Come on, let's drive to Sufeng Hall, I will spend the night at Concubine Yang's place tonight, hahaha... "

Guo Ye shook his head secretly after hearing this, "You are just empty-handed and happy for nothing. If you don't believe me, you will wait and see tomorrow."

He knew that in the early morning tomorrow, there would be a battle between dragons and tigers, and the scene of turbulent wind and clouds.

Poor His Majesty Li Er will definitely swallow his anger and dispel the idea of ​​King Lishu as the prince tomorrow under the verbal swords of the ministers.

At that time, Changsun Wuji will finish singing, and Fang Xuanling will appear on stage!

If a trouble is not good, Wei Zheng will come up and give Li Er Majesty a deadly remonstrance on the spot, will you change your mind?If you don't change me, Wei Zheng, I will kill you on the spot.

Thinking of this, Guo Ye's scalp tingles.

Fortunately, he doesn't have to go to court tomorrow, and he doesn't have to suffer that crime. He has already made up his mind, and he will tell Cui Henian for his brother's sick leave later, saying that he caught a cold while hunting yesterday, and he will rest for ten days and a half months. Let's talk about right and wrong.

Chapter 902 Change, bad news

As expected by Guo Ye.

On the morning of the second day above the court hall, there was really wind and thunder surging, and the sky and the earth changed color.

As soon as His Majesty Li Er proposed Li Ke, the king of Shu, as the crown prince, he was strongly opposed by all the ministers.

The voice of opposition really hit like a torrent of mountains and seas, and the waves were higher and higher.
