"Father, just say it!" Li Tai is in a stirring mood now, and the big pie that he thinks about day and night suddenly smashes his head on his head like this, and whoever he puts on him has to be half excited.

Li Shimin's eyes became distant, and he was silent for a while before he said: "Outsiders can do whatever it takes, but what kind of attitude should they have towards their brothers and sisters?" ”

This is the biggest pain in Li Shimin's heart, now that he has been on the throne for more than ten years, his position is stable, although he does not regret it when he thinks back to the Xuanwumen incident, but can he not be so ruthless and have to kill Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji? Wouldn't it be better to keep them in prison at the time? Now that it is his son's turn to make this choice, what is his mind for his brothers? Will he kill his brothers like I did? Thinking that his favorite sons were killed, he was too old to see such a tragedy, so such a question is the last key, the most important thing.

Li Tai was already overwhelmed by joy at this time, and he knew what this brotherhood meant to Li Shimin. Immediately blurted out without thinking: "Father, as long as I can ascend to the throne." I will definitely love my brothers, whether they are the eldest brother or the younger brother, I will take care of them with all my heart. Let them be happy and carefree until they grow old, and even I can kill Xin'er and them in a hundred years and pass the throne to the pheasant slaves. ”

"Is that true?" Li Shimin was excited when he heard this, this statement is not insignificant, if it can really be realized, then what he is most worried about will not happen.

Li Tai suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said word by word: "You have no jokes!" ”

There are two meanings to this, one is that as long as you become an emperor, you can't talk nonsense, you must fulfill it, and the other is that I, Li Tai, am a gentleman and made an oath in front of my father, the emperor, then you believe me, I will treat them well.

Li Shimin was excited when he heard Li Tai's words, and there was a son who understood what he meant, what else could he say. He stood up violently and hugged Li Tai: "It's really my good son, I am relieved to have you as the prince." ”

Li Tai's fat body Li Shimin couldn't even hug it, and his face was full of excitement, and his wish for many years was fulfilled. After surviving the eldest brother, it was finally his turn. He also hugged Li Shimin, crying in his voice: "Father, I... I will definitely be good to you and the pheasant slave. ”

The father and son felt the long-lost family affection, and when Li Tai left, Li Shimin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Tomorrow I will let Zhongshu draft the edict of the prince." ”

When Li Tai left the Taiji Palace, he walked floating. I felt that the sky was so blue, the air was so fresh, and the flowers and plants were so bright, that even the most hated eunuch became cute.

Li Shimin was also very excited, waited for a long time and finally waited for Li Tai's promise, he turned around excitedly in the Taiji Palace, thinking about Li Tai's promise just now, the more he thought about it, the happier he was, in the end it was the heir he valued, his character was different, he didn't want to wait for a minute at this moment, and now he was going to make an edict for the prince.

"Someone, pass on the book Chu Suiliang!"

Wang De hurriedly went to summon him in person, at this time Li Shimin was too excited, he was cunning and cunning, and when he saw Li Tai just leaving, he knew that Li Shimin wanted to make Li Tai the prince. How about asking Li Tai in passing? How do you ask Wang De to answer? It's better to stay out of the way for a while.

When Chu Suiliang heard the emperor's call, he didn't dare to delay and hurried over. Seeing Li Shimin's happy face, he saluted and asked, "Why is Your Majesty so happy?" ”

Li Shimin said with a smile: "I want to establish Li Tai, the king of Wei, as the crown prince, Aiqing, you should draft an edict!" ”

"Your Majesty has finally made up your mind to establish a prince, and Weichen congratulates Your Majesty! Congratulations for Datang! "Chu Suiliang is very happy, since ancient times, the canonization of the East Palace is a major event, a country has no definite prince that is a symbol of national instability, and now there is finally an heir, for their ministers and the people of the world are happy events.

Li Shimin was also happy in his heart, and he wanted to share the words in his heart with others: "Yes, today's conversation with King Wei warms my heart, and I can finally let go of what I am worried about." ”

"King Wei has been talented and intelligent since he was a child, and he is indeed worthy of His Majesty's love." Chu Suiliang is also a literati, loves literature for good scholars, and Li Tai of Gongcaoli is also very close, at least much better than a prince who loves martial arts to ascend to the throne.

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Being talented is nothing, what makes me make up my mind is Qingque's brotherhood for Chengqian and Pheasant Slave, he said that when he is a hundred years old, he can pass on the throne to Pheasant Slave when his son kills him, and there has been no such brotherhood since ancient times." ”

Chu Suiliang, who was studying ink, heard Li Shimin's words, his hand stopped, he didn't seem to hear Li Shimin's words clearly, and asked specifically: "Your Majesty, what did King Wei say?" ”

"He said that when he was a hundred years old, he killed his son and passed the throne to the pheasant slave!" Li Shimin said strangely: "What's wrong?" ”

Chu Suiliang fell to the ground with a bang: "Your Majesty, this edict cannot be drafted by Weichen." Weichen thought that King Wei had deceived His Majesty verbally and was suspected of plotting for his heir, which was a crime of defrauding the king. ”

"What do you say? How dare you separate the feelings of my father and son? Li Shimin was furious when he heard Chu Suiliang's words, he had just made up his mind to make up the prince, and you actually said bad things about him.

"Your Majesty Mingjian, Weichen believes that emotionally speaking, there has never been a brotherly relationship that is better than the relationship between father and son. It can be said that King Wei's words are completely to please His Majesty, just for the position of the crown prince. His heart can be punished! ”

"Impossible, impossible, how could Qingque lie to me?" Li Shimin listened to Chu Suiliang's words, as if he had been slapped on the head, and took two steps back and sat on the dragon chair, his face full of disbelief.

Wang De looked at Li Shimin and felt a pain in his heart, this master of his own life was shrewd, and he would be deceived by such simple words, which shows that the incident hit him deeply and hurt him so badly, but he couldn't intervene in this matter, so he could only pretend not to hear it and hide behind the pillar.

Where else did Chu Suiliang persuade: "Your Majesty, it's just that from the perspective of human nature, King Wei's words are false, if you don't believe what Weichen said, you can ask other ministers to see if they speak the same as Weichen." As a monarch, he should be upright and bright, how can he deceive his father with words, isn't that the same as Yang Guang? ”

The lethality of this word is too great, Emperor Yang Guang of Sui is also the second, and he also has a reputation for being virtuous when he is the prince, he designed slander to kill his brother Yang Yong, the crown prince, and then succeeded to the throne as the emperor, and lost the country of the Great Sui in a few decades, from a certain point of view, it is really a bit similar to Li Tai's situation.

Li Shimin still didn't believe that his son dared to deceive himself so ruthlessly, he still wanted to hear other people's explanations, and said weakly: "Xuanfang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji, Ma Zhou and others have entered the palace!" ”
