In Taiyuan, in the Guogong Mansion, Li Shude stood in front of the window looking haggard, looking at the already faint sky, the father and son had been standing all night.

In the end, Li Shude shook his head and said: "My Li family has been loyal for generations, and I must not be ruined by this miracle, even if Your Majesty is unkind, I can't be unjust, this word rebellion will not be mentioned again in the future, I hope Your Majesty can remember my Li family's loyalty for generations, and will not start to harm you." ”

Li Xuanba got up silently and walked out the door. Only the three men sitting in the chair refused to leave, and in the middle, a man of medium height and broad body but full of elegance and bearing frowned:

"Father, as soon as this miracle comes out, my Li family has no room to retreat, except to be captured, there is only one way to rebel, and with the help of the Chongxuan Dao Court, we and the dynasty may not be without the strength of a battle, you are in heaven's will." ”

Li Shude turned around suddenly, staring at his second son, his expression instantly turned cold. It's just that Li Ji'an didn't retreat and looked at his father.

Seeing this, Li Xuanba turned around and pulled the elegant man to sit down and said, "Second brother, even if you rebel, you need to plan slowly, so don't force your father anymore."

In the end, Li Ji'an sighed, and then got up to leave. Li Shude looked at the backs of his two sons and sighed.

His son himself knows that the second son's military strategy and martial arts are the best choice, and he is generous, he has an aristocratic demeanor since he was a child, his heart is extremely tenacious, calm and ruthless, and naturally exudes a heart-wrenching charm.

I remember that the National Teacher once commented that his second son was the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix among people, and he could help the world and the people at the age of 20, and the name Li Ji'an was chosen because of this.

It's just that he still has three sons, and the fourth son is now appreciated by His Majesty today, and he is accepted by the Xuan Dao Court, and he is invincible in the world if he cultivates for a long time, but his temperament is too upright, and sometimes it is easy to break if he is too rigid.

There are also the eldest son and the third son, Li Jian, Li Ji, none of which are reassuring.

Li Jian, who was sitting on the chair, was thin and capable, different from Li Xuanba and Li Ji'an's temperament, calm and atmospheric, and looked quite benevolent and righteous. It is the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the military strategy and martial arts are not bad, if it is placed on weekdays, this son inherits his position as the prince of the country, and with the help of his brothers, the Li family will only prosper, but at such a time in this life, it is something that people have to worry about.

The third son, Li Ji, inherited his mother's style, more than feminine, lack of atmosphere, and his style of acting is too feminine, and he leaves no room for ruthlessness......

Alas, Li Shude sighed again and waved his hand to let the two of them leave the room as well.

Outside the door, Li Xuanba and the two waited for the eldest brother and Li Ji to come out and the four of them got together again, Li Ji'an looked at Li Jiandao:

"Big brother, my father is the only one you can persuade on weekdays, so let him prepare early. I can still think of some ways to delay it for a while, and there are still a few reliable people in those green forest heroes on the rivers and lakes, but once this period of time passes, I am afraid that the Li family will no longer have peace. ”

Li Jian shook his head and said slowly: "Father has father's thoughts, and now Your Majesty has not done anything, so we will raise the banner and rebel, what kind of disloyalty and injustice will my Li family fall into at that time." ”

Li Ji said with a gloomy face: "Big brother, you are always so indecisive, as long as the rebellion is successful, the history books will not be written by us in the future?"

Li Xuanba smiled bitterly and stopped everyone: "Second brother, you'd better expand the army privately recently, even if we don't oppose at this time, we must strengthen the army a little to protect ourselves."

If Your Majesty only punishes the Li family slightly, we will leave it at that, if we are determined to kill them quickly, you and my brother will only have one way to die in battle. ”

"Okay, let's break up here, by the way, fourth brother, that woman's origin is unknown, you better be careful. ”

Li Xuanba smiled slightly, didn't speak, and turned to leave.

----------------------

Under the cover of night, the entire Shengyuan Dynasty was surging with undercurrents.

The news of the birth of the true dragon of Taiyuan Mansion immediately spread throughout the upper echelons of the Shengyuan Dynasty at an unimaginable speed, and the title of Dragon City, the city of Taiyuan oracles, spread far and wide.

Among them, the performance of Li Xuanba and another girl that day was even spread by word of mouth, and even many people speculated that the woman that day might be the Holy Maiden of the Demon Gate, and the entire Shengyuan Dynasty shook up and down for a while.

At midnight, the Taiji Hall of the Forbidden City in Kyoto, the hall is brightly lit, and His Majesty is sitting on the dragon chair today, and the ministers are standing in the main hall in order.

The whole hall was silent, and it was as if a needle could echo when it fell to the ground, only the slightly flickering candle flame was constantly beating, as if to add a little flame to the silent hall.

After the national teacher reported the miracle to the emperor, His Majesty was rarely angry, but silent.

It is precisely this that makes everyone tremble, because the Great Emperor is rarely silent, once he is silent, it means that he is thinking, and once he thinks, there will be something big happening in the Shengyuan Dynasty. At this moment, no one dares to speak indiscriminately at this moment, in case of touching the mold, it will be light.

You must know that His Majesty is a killer today.

Everyone knows that His Majesty just looks ordinary or that he wants people to look at him ordinary, if he wants to be eloquent or ruthless, the whole empire will dance with it, who dares to forget those bloody years?

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also regarded as the dragon among the Venerable Masters, Wen Taowu was proficient in everything, and he was deeply loved by the emperor, and everyone thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would inherit the unification.

But who knew that the day before His Majesty issued the edict, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly died strangely and violently, and there were two concubines of the former king in the room of His Royal Highness the Prince.

At that time, the whole dynasty thought that the Second Highness was not enough to undertake the heavy responsibilities of the dynasty, but the Second Highness, who was only 20 years old at the age of 20, suddenly shined, opened the imperial examination internally, revitalized agriculture, built the eastern capital, repaired the granary, opened the territory to the outside world, conquered the northeast in the east, and connected the western frontier to the west, laying a solid foundation for the current territory of the empire.

Once, because of the abolition of the nine-rank official rank, Yang Ye, who was still the second highness at the time, almost touched the interests of the entire Shengyuan Dynasty's gate lord family, and the original people of His Royal Highness the prince secretly accumulated strength, ready to admonish the first emperor by force, depose the second highness and set up the fourth highness Shu King as the crown prince, and the throne was stormy.

The Second Highness, who was usually silent, showed the strength that shocked the entire dynasty, first Yang Su, the first prince of the first kingdom who was deeply trusted by the first king, swore allegiance to the second highness, and falsely passed on the holy decree to execute the king of Shu.

Later, Li Shude, the first military general of the dynasty, led Xuanshuang to ride into Beijing to express his support, and the second highness ordered the slaughter of the prince's family of men and horses, and killed half of the opposing courtiers with a cane.

After that battle, the first emperor died of a mysterious illness in the palace, and His Royal Highness ascended to the throne paved with blood, and no one dared to oppose the decree issued under the iron-blooded suppression of His Royal Highness.

But most of the courtroom of the dynasty was vacant, and when half of the dynasty was about to collapse, the imperial examination system of the Second Highness made countless Hanmen Shu people see the hope of entering the upper echelons of the dynasty.

One by one, the pearls of the star literary world rose one after another, and for a time the world's talents came out in large numbers, quickly filling the gap in the court and becoming the mainstay of the dynasty, which was more concerted than when the emperor was alive, and it was also at that time that His Majesty won the allegiance of the entire dynasty.

The strength of the dynasty in the following decades once again proved the majesty of His Royal Highness at that time. The granary is abundant, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, the territory is vast, and the dynasty has an unprecedented prosperity.

No one will forget these, no matter how the years change, how the world changes, many people will remember that it is the man who looks ordinary, but actually has a magnificent world in his heart, which has created today's peaceful and prosperous world.

Although he has ignored the government since the empress left, it is precisely this majestic that has given the people of the Shengyuan Dynasty the grace to tolerate anything; without him, there would never be these people today;

Without him, there would never be the current prosperity of the dynasty, not so much that the Shengyuan Dynasty created him, but that he single-handedly created the current scene of the Shengyuan Dynasty.

There are no fools who can stand above the court, so naturally no one will be the first to speak.

"You all talk about it, how to deal with this matter, Taifu, you can tell me your opinion first. The Emperor said to the only old man seated in the main hall.

The old man was wearing a heavy armor, his beard and hair were all white, but even when he was sitting, his body was straight, and his iron and blood momentum was not strong, and he was not angry and arrogant.

People who can sit down on the main hall and dare to wear heavy armor, the Shengyuan Dynasty naturally has no one else except for the current His Majesty's uncle, the backer Wang Yangmu.

The old man can have today, of course, not by the least valuable blood relationship in the royal family.

Today's old man can be said to be completely exchanged for countless meritorious military exploits, from the first emperor to the current emperor, the backer king Yang Mu has made immortal contributions to the Shengyuan Dynasty to open up the territory and expand the territory.

The battle of dynastic unification that year, and the Eastern Expedition to the Goguryeo Dynasty a few years ago, were all commanded by Yang Mu, and every battle was invincible and invincible, establishing his status as the Dinghai Shenzhu of the Shengyuan Dynasty today.

It can be said that the military of the Shengyuan Dynasty, as long as the old man is in one day, the dynasty can stand.

What's even more rare is that although the old man has a fiery temperament, he has been loyal to the royal family of the Yang family all his life, and has done his best for the generations of the Yang dynasty.

At that time, he even almost set foot on Longhu Mountain, the most mysterious Taoist holy land in the world, if it wasn't for the emperor's efforts to dissuade him, the old man really dared to wave his troops at him, he was such a disrespectful of heaven and earth, and he was not afraid of ghosts and gods, but he was the only one who did his best for the Yang Dynasty.

Although occasionally he will draw a sword in the main hall with his temper, but which time is not for the future rise and fall of the Shengyuan Dynasty, His Majesty naturally sees all this, so he once said: "As long as the descendants of the Yang family reign for one day, they can not respect heaven and earth, ghosts and gods, but they must not be disrespectful to the elderly." ”

Yang Mu slowly got up from his seat, as if nothing had happened, and said calmly: "Although according to historical records, every time a miracle comes into the world, an emperor will arise, the first emperor Han Emperor in the past, and the first emperor ascended the throne, and the real dragon is entangled, but Your Majesty also knows that the old minister never believes in God.

I only believe that the Yang Dynasty will be a thousand generations and this pair of water and fire prison dragon sticks in his hands, no matter whether he Li Shude is not a true son of heaven or not, as long as His Majesty gives Lao Chen 50,000 troops, even if the Guogong has unparalleled combat power and has Xuanshuang Heavy Cavalry, Lao Chen will definitely let his Li family be wiped out.

Even if the old man is pointed out by thousands of husbands, he will fall into hell forever after death, but he can also protect the dynasty forever. ”

The old man continued: "Your Majesty, forgive the minister, this is not an opportunity to be soft-hearted, as long as our dynasty is an elite soldier, even if he does his best to help the Li family, it may not be able to succeed, as long as there will be no future troubles, my dynasty will not be able to say it for thousands of generations." ”

Standing opposite the old man, a middle-aged man wearing the official uniform of Shangshu's right servant and an extremely beautiful beard saluted slightly, frowned and said:

"Your Majesty, Lord Guogong has been kind to my dynasty, and has been loyal to assist Your Majesty for many years, and has never had two hearts. At this moment, he rashly attacked him because of miracles, and he was afraid that he would provoke thousands of people and shake the foundation of the country.

We can't mess up our hands and feet because of a miracle, and the Guogong has a heavy ride on the Xuanshuang, this time I went to Taiyuan Mansion, Kyoto is far away from its road, and the whip is out of reach, and when our soldiers come to the city, I am afraid that the Guogong and a few sons have already fled, and if the grass is not eradicated, there will be troubles.

The old minister thinks that this matter can be discussed in the long run, and he plans slowly, and first orders to recruit the prince and a few sons into Beijing, didn't you still say that you want to marry the princess to Li Xuanba. When the time comes, he will disobey the order, and we will be able to raise troops.

If he doesn't come because of his illness, he can first cut off his official position and let his son inherit it, and the prince has four sons, and then we will add fuel to the fire, and we will not worry that his heir will not commit suicide for the position of the prince of the country, and then he will be the only one lonely and widowed old man, and it will not be too late for us to start calmly. ”

Listening to these words, the civil officials nodded frequently, and had to admit that the prime minister was scheming, ruthless, and thoughtful, and it was no wonder that His Majesty trusted him.

On the top of the main hall, because one immediately moved, one Xu Xu Tuzhi suddenly quarreled, and the hall that was quite quiet just now suddenly made a noise, and spit flew, but His Royal Highness the Prince, who was standing under the head of the king of the backer, looked at His Majesty, and slowly spoke:

"The minister thinks that the words of the Taifu and the prime minister are justified, but what I want to say is that all the adults should not be confused by miracles, so what are you fighting for at this moment?

It is my Majesty's Shengming to open up the territory to the outside world, hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers of the dynasty have shed their blood, and the generals have strategized;

Internally, the Qing Dynasty officials ruled the treasury abundantly, it was His Majesty who opened the imperial examination, dug canals, and exempted from taxes, and all the civil servants were loyal to each other, and the world's talents came one after another, what does it have to do with miracles?

Regardless of whether it is a rule or martial arts, how much strength can a mere prince have? A son is a genius? He is wise? But what does this mean? Could it be that my thousand-year-old magnanimity cannot tolerate a mere miracle of a prince of the country?"

"Your Royal Highness, having said that, it is ......"

"But what? I know what you are nervous about, Meng Shengren once said, born in sorrow, died in peace, my Shengyuan Dynasty is not afraid of opponents appearing, the more powerful the opponent, the more my dynasty gathers together, this is not a spur. ”

His Majesty, who was sitting on the top of the dragon chair, suddenly opened his eyes, waved his hand to stop everyone's quarrel, and looked at Zhang Qingfeng, the national teacher who had not said a word all night, and said, "National teacher, what do you have to say?"

All the ministers looked at the middle-aged man in the corner who was wearing a gray Taoist robe, and he couldn't attract everyone's attention at all. Only then did I remember that the Chongxuan Dao Court was known as the will of heaven, and this miracle was also reported to His Majesty by the national teacher.

After waiting for him to speak, everyone present knew that the national teacher's cultivation had reached the realm of transformation, but he usually did not show the mountain dew.

Zhang Qingfeng bowed slightly, and said calmly: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has nothing to say." ”

All the ministers suddenly, only His Majesty was thoughtful, looking at the courtiers in the main hall who supported half of the Shengyuan Dynasty, he slowly got up, his eyes gradually brightened, and said word by word:

"I know what you mean, Qingyuan, I also understand what you mean, you are worried that I will die of a cunning rabbit and a lackey cook, so I intercede for the country. ”

His Royal Highness the Prince was drenched in cold sweat in an instant, knelt on the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty, the minister has been wronged. ”

The Great Emperor waved his hand, stood with his hands in his hands, and said lightly: "It's just that you seem to have forgotten how I sat on this throne?"

The hall was silent for an instant, who would dare to answer such a question.

"So, what I'm telling you is that I never worry about miracles. My life is a life of never admitting defeat, when my father was unwilling to inherit the unification alone, I did not accept it, so I fought for the throne;

At that time, I wanted to open the imperial examination, but you didn't let me, and I was also not convinced, but I still had to fight, and I fought for the dynasty today;

The queen mother is dissatisfied with the queen, but I am still not convinced, so I have to fight;

It is precisely in this way that you have today, my today, and the Shengyuan Dynasty today;

I have never been afraid of struggle, both to man and to heaven. Now, the sky is going to choose the Li family, and I tell you very clearly, I am not convinced!

I want to let this day, this earth, and this heavenly gods and Buddhas all open their eyes to see who is the true son of heaven.

I won't do anything to the Li family, I want to prove to all beings that I am the only true son of heaven in this world!"

The emperor's words were loud, and there was thunder in the plain place, and a majestic momentum arose spontaneously, echoing in this wide hall for a long time.

The king of the backer fell to his knees and shouted, "Your Majesty......"

The emperor looked at the old man who had worked hard, walked down the steps, slowly helped the old man up, looked at the old man and said, "Uncle Shi, don't you believe that I can win?"

At this moment, the old man burst into tears, nodded and said: "I believe, from the time I watched Your Majesty grow up, I knew that Ye Er was the best man in the world." ”

"Uncle Shi, I want to conquer the Goguryeo Dynasty again, how about you look at this Yang Dynasty for me?"

"The minister will live up to His Majesty's trust, and he should do his best to die. ”

"Good, good!" After saying two good words, the emperor suddenly turned around and walked up the steps and said in a loud voice: "Yang Qingyuan." ”

"The minister is here. ”

"I ordered you to stay behind for Liyang and escort grain and grass for my army. ”

"The minister will not disgrace his life!"

"Yuwen hurts. ”

"Wechen is here. ”

"I want you to open up the water passage between Kyoto and Jiangnan from now on, and take charge of all matters of the Shangshu Department. ”

"Your Majesty, at this time, the Eastern Crusade will be ...... with the opening of the canal."

The emperor looked at Prime Minister Yuwen calmly, and after a while, Prime Minister Yuwen knelt down in a dejected manner: "The minister obeys the order." ”

The ministers looked at the figure above the main hall and knew that the emperor who was so eloquent that he could make the entire empire dance with it back then had returned. It's just that on this eventful time, no one can say whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Suddenly, the calm voice of the National Teacher sounded: "Your Majesty, please take Li Xuanba on the expedition!"

The Emperor nodded, walked to the apse, and the ministers dispersed.

On the way to the imperial study, Zhao Ping slowly followed behind the emperor. The Great Emperor suddenly asked, "Zhao Ping, will I do anything wrong this time?"

The old man, who was originally leaning up, straightened up slightly and said: "Your Majesty, how can the old slave know what is right and wrong, the old slave only knows that what His Majesty says and does in this life is always right."

The old slave didn't dare to talk about state affairs, but he knew that His Royal Highness, who had become the generalissimo of the three armies at the age of twenty and was invincible, had returned. ”

The Emperor laughed loudly and was arrogant.
