Chapter 447 After Li Ke entered the harem, he arrived at the palace of his mother, Concubine Yang, and before he arrived at the palace, several eunuchs and palace maids at the door saw him coming.

"His Royal Highness King Wu is back, Niangniang, His Royal Highness King Wu is back!" Several eunuchs looked at Li Ke, who came over, and immediately ran in and shouted loudly, at this time, a delicate middle-aged woman ran out of the palace gate,

Although she looks over forty years old, she doesn't lose her charm at all, and you can also see that when she was young, she was a great beauty.

"Ke'er!" The middle-aged woman shouted excitedly, this person is Li Ke's mother, Concubine Yang, the daughter of Emperor Yang of Sui, the princess of the previous dynasty, if according to the bloodline, Concubine Yang's bloodline is undoubtedly the most noble in the Tang Dynasty, and Li Ke is even more noble, great-grandfather, maternal grandfather, grandfather, father are all emperors.

"The child has seen his mother!" Li Ke saw Concubine Yang at the gate of the palace, almost trotted over, and before he could go up the steps, he knelt down and kowtowed first.

"Ke'er, Ke'er, my son, my mother finally saw you!" Concubine Yang was very excited, walked down the stairs quickly, hugged Li Ke, has been out for four or five years, has not been able to meet, as a mother, it must be very missed, she was surprised and happy to learn that Li Ke was going back to Beijing.

"Mother, the child is not filial, and he can't serve the left and right!" Li Ke also hugged Concubine Yang and said in a choked voice.

"Well, it's okay, it's okay, on the other side of the fiefdom, do a good job for Your Majesty, and also honor your mother, quickly, get up, the ground is cold, go back to the palace and say, go back to the palace and say!" Concubine Yang pulled Li Ke and said, Li Ke stood up and followed Concubine Yang into the palace.

"It's so warm, I remember it wasn't that warm before!" Li Ke entered the house and found that it was really very warm, it was like this in the Ganlu Hall before, but now that he is here, he also feels warm.

"This is still a stove made by Hu Guogong, and now the entire palace is equipped with this stove, which is very warm, firewood-burning, and safe, there will be no carbon poison, sitting in the house, sometimes you have to sweat!" Concubine Yang took Li Ke's hand and said with a smile.

"Well, I've heard of this Hu Guogong, the son of Uncle Qin Qiong, and I have a chance to get to know him." Li Ke smiled and nodded.

"You all go out, let's talk for a while." Concubine Yang said and let those subordinates go out, and those subordinates immediately gave up their hands and went out.

Then Concubine Yang pulled Li Ke to sit down and looked at this son carefully, he was indeed very similar to Li Shimin.

"Ke'er, why are you coming back at this time? Mother wishes you didn't come back, why did you come back? Concubine Yang stared at Li Ke and asked softly and anxiously.

"Ah, my father wrote to say that my mother misses Ke'er very much, and asked Ke'er to return to Beijing and visit my mother!" Li Ke pretended to be surprised and looked at his mother,

In fact, he himself knew very well what the purpose of coming to the capital was, and those people from the family had looked for him.

"Hey, you shouldn't come back, now here in the capital, the crown prince and King Wei are all vying for the crown prince, and the people of the family also want to support their own people to go up, are the people of the family looking for you? You tell the truth to your mother! Concubine Yang stared at Li Ke and asked.

Li Ke heard it and nodded.

"You, you!" Concubine Yang said and slapped Li Ke a few times, but Li Ke sat there and didn't move.

"You shouldn't listen to them, now the prince's position is quite stable, in the past two years, the family has been very miserable by His Majesty, they want to pull down His Royal Highness the prince, for the mother estimated, they think Li Tai can't do it, so they want to pull you into this whirlpool, why did you agree?" Concubine Yang looked at him and nodded, and said very anxiously.

"Child, child, child is also unconvinced, why can't I be the emperor? He Li Cheng is good, and children are also good, I am more noble than him in terms of background, and I am not worse than him.

Now there are so many people who support Erchen, Erchen is not fighting, but he is unwilling, and now that the eldest grandson Wuji has also lost power, it is not impossible for Erchen to compete for the crown prince, plus, the father also has this meaning, why don't Erchen fight! Li Ke sat there, looked up at Concubine Yang and said.

"Who said Your Majesty meant that? Don't you understand what Your Majesty means, let you stand up and fight, just to attract the family! Concubine Yang said anxiously to Li Ke, Li Ke nodded, of course he understood, but there was also a chance.

"Mother, don't worry, the child understands!" Li Ke looked at Concubine Yang and said,

Before coming back, Li Shimin wrote a letter to him, and he burned it after reading it, and the content of this letter could not be shown to others, so he could only come out and fight hard, of course, he himself hoped to win.

"You know what? You know? Now those generals basically default to His Royal Highness the Prince, and the proportion of poor officials is getting higher and higher, and they also support His Royal Highness the Prince, and the servants also support His Highness, how can you fight?

The other ministers of the family, although they are also valued by His Majesty, but compared to the servants of the house, they are nothing, let alone compared to Hu Guogong. Concubine Yang looked at Li Ke anxiously and said.

"Hu Guogong, Qin Huaidao?" Li Ke said in surprise when he heard Concubine Yang say this.

"Yes, it is Qin Huaidao, who is very respected and trusted by His Majesty, and he has also established immortal feats for the Tang Dynasty, papermaking, printing, pig iron, salt, and sweet potatoes and potatoes, all of which he made, with these, the Tang Dynasty can be passed down for hundreds of years, and no one can shake the royal status." Concubine Yang nodded and said.

"In this way, I want to get to know him, and people who are so capable have to make friends." Li Ke heard it, nodded thoughtfully and said.

"Ke'er, you can't win him over, you should know, he married Xian'er, Xian'er is His Highness's own sister, Xian'er must support His Highness, how can you win him over,

But for the mother to tell you, you must not offend Qin Huaidao, before the slave offended Qin Huaidao, has been demoted to the king of the county, driven out of the capital, if you can't win him over, but you must not offend him, don't remember! Concubine Yang sat there and reminded Li Ke to speak.

"Well, the kid remembers." Li Ke nodded and said.

"Wei Niang heard that he supported His Royal Highness the Prince, and helped His Royal Highness the Crown Prince many times, but he didn't make it clear that he supported His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Majesty wanted Qin Huaidao to go to the East Palace to serve many times.

He didn't go either, His Royal Highness didn't agree, and no one knew what he thought, but my mother still has to remind you again and again that you must not offend Qin Huaidao, King Wei is because he offended Qin Huaidao, and it is useless to come to the door many times to apologize.

And His Majesty also has a lot of trust in Qin Huaidao, and now the Qin Mansion is a Three Kingdoms Duke, a County Duke, a Marquis, and an Earl, and the Qin Mansion now adds up to three men. Concubine Yang reminded Li Ke again, Li Ke nodded, he knew the news.

"You can't offend, but it's impossible to win him over, you just show favor to him, if the family says that you want to deal with Qin Huaidao, you must not agree, in Your Majesty's heart, you are not as important as Qin Huaidao,

After all, the crown prince is there, you are an ordinary prince, your majesty said to give up, and even the slave was given up by your majesty, who else can't give up? Concubine Yang warned Li Ke again, she knew these things very well in her heart, after all, her father was also the emperor, and she understood how the emperor did things.

"Don't worry, the child understands that even if you can't be a friend, you must not be an enemy." Li Ke nodded, looked at Concubine Yang and said.

"Well, in addition, Lu Guogong, E Guogong, Liang Guogong, Wei Guogong, and British Gong will definitely oppose you going up, and you must have enough respect for them, they oppose because they are afraid that you will liquidate them, after all, they have brought down your grandfather's world." Concubine Yang sat there and spoke.

Li Ke nodded, he understands this worry, he actually doesn't have the idea of avenging his grandfather, he is Li Tang's prince, his surname is Li, but he also knows that he can use this excuse to clean up all those generals, of course, the premise is that he can be the emperor,

And those generals are also worried about this, once those generals don't listen to Li Ke, Li Ke can use this excuse to kill them, so those generals will never allow themselves to go up.

"The child will talk to those generals and ministers in the future, so that they can rest assured, even if they don't support me, as long as they don't oppose me." Li Ke nodded and said.

"Hey, it's very difficult, they are quite jealous of you, and His Royal Highness the Prince, in the past two years, he has also done things very steadily, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are also very good." Concubine Yang looked at her son worriedly and said,

How can it be so easy to compete for a big position, if Li Chengqian keeps making mistakes, then there is still a chance, but now Li Chengqian is much more stable, and his leg disease is also healed.

Although the eldest grandson Wuji has lost power, with the secret support of those generals, coupled with Qin Huaidao's secret support, the power is already much stronger than in previous years.

"The child knows, the mother can rest assured!" Li Ke nodded and said.

"Okay, let's have dinner in the palace later, it's not too early, anyway, be careful!" Concubine Yang looked at Li Ke with a sigh and said, there is no way now, since they have all come back, they can only fight, and she actually hopes that her son can succeed.

"This, mother, Cheng Zhihei, they have already set a place in the Qinfu Restaurant, let the child go over, or, the child will come over in two days to see the mother's parents?" Li Ke looked at his mother with a smile and asked.

"You, you know how to mess around!" Concubine Yang heard it, and blamed her son with a smile,

However, when she heard that it was Cheng Zhihei and they invited her son to dinner, she was also a little happy, after all, Cheng Zhihei and they are the second-generation military generals, if there is their support, it is fine.
