Chapter 359: The Prince's Cultivation Plan

Li Yuanjing's voice was undoubtedly telling Li Shimin that he would not come forward in the next exploration.

This time going to sea can be regarded as helping the imperial court bring some people out, there are no suitable troops, it doesn't matter, the Haizhou army will give you 30,000.

This also means that Li Yuanjing's Haizhou army only has 10,000 people left, which is a Haizhou army that has undergone three years of training and has rich sailing experience, even if the training method is given to the imperial court, it will take at least two or three years to barely train soldiers who can go to sea.

Although the Haizhou army was nominally 50,000, it was actually 40,000.

And this is also the reason why Li Shimin has repeatedly tolerated Li Yuanjing, and even allowed him to have an army, Li Yuanjing did not show his selfishness many times, and Li Yuanjing didn't even need Li Shimin to take the initiative to speak, Li Yuanjing sent what he wanted.

Good and bad, Li Shimin naturally knows it in his heart.

Therefore, he was a little worried that he would not be able to control it, so he secretly urged Li Yuanjing to find his fiefdom as soon as possible and let him leave.

"This trip to Lingnan will definitely not be too easy, and the Shi family is not a soft persimmon, I plan to let you go!" Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief and said.

This is not a decision made on the spur of the moment, but a decision made after careful consideration.

The changes that the imperial court wants to make in Lingnan are too big, and it may cause more serious consequences, sending other people to go, Li Shimin is a little worried that he will not be able to control the field, even if it is Li Daozong.

"Why didn't the imperial brother let the prince go?" Li Yuanjing asked suddenly.

"He is the prince, how can he leave Chang'an easily?" Li Shimin smiled, it's not that the prince can't go, but it's not very convenient to go.

What is the climate and environment in Lingnan, there is no need to say more, in case the prince is infected on the way, it will affect the whole country, even if he fails to contract those messy diseases, but the prince is still too young after all, and the current prince is only fourteen years old, although he is performing well, but it is still not good to be alone.

"When the younger brother was as old as him, he was already able to lead the troops to the sea to fight, and the imperial brother protected him in the palace from the beating of the wind and rain, how could he walk alone in the headwind in the future?" Li Yuanjing patiently persuaded him, but his mind kept thinking about Li Chengqian's life process.

But the more I think about it, the more I feel sorry for him, there are still many people with the same fate in history, but their endings seem to be the same.

A large part of the existence and continuation of a dynasty depends on how it is inherited.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty killed his own crown prince Liu Ju, and as a result, his successor was far inferior to Liu Ju, that is, from then on, the Han Dynasty began to go from peak to decline.

The Tang Dynasty in history is the same, but the difference is that Li Chengqian was abolished after his own death, and in other respects, among these sons of Li Shimin, no one is more suitable for succession than Li Chengqian.

But Li Chengqian also has his own weakness, and it is precisely because of this weakness that he lost his future and his life.

Li Yuanjing began to transform Li Chengqian a few years ago, but the degree of transformation was far from enough.

Now Li Chengqian is like a flower in a greenhouse, once he loses the greenhouse that shelters him, his life will quickly wither.

And his greenhouse is not Li Shimin, Li Shimin has never been a qualified father, Li Chengqian's biggest barrier is Empress Changsun, the death of Empress Changsun completely changed Li Chengqian's fate, in other words, his sky collapsed in an instant, his mentality collapsed, and he didn't know what he should do for a while?

The children of the poor have long been in charge, looking at the Tang Dynasty, ordinary families, like Li Chengqian's age, most of them can carry a hoe to work in the field alone, it cannot be said that they can support this family, at least they can be regarded as half a laborer.

Thinking of this, Li Yuanjing continued: "The prince's biggest weakness is that he is too fragile psychologically, and he will be a little helpless in the face of a huge blow, and even make some foolish decisions, if he can persist and survive this time, he can ensure that Datang will improve in the next fifty years!" ”

Li Shimin looked at Li Yuanjing with some surprise, Li Yuanjing has never been involved in the matter of competing for the prince, although the princes are still young, but the two little guys of King Wu and King Wei are not fuel-efficient lamps.

Although the two little guys don't know the intention of doing this, the people behind them are constantly pushing, once the people they invest in are in place, so do you need to say more about the benefits in the future?

Li Yuanjing is right, Li Shimin is actually most optimistic about Li Chengqian, but Li Chengqian's fatal weakness also gives Li Shimin a headache, and he doesn't want his experience to happen to his son again.

So at the beginning of the fight, he firmly stood on Li Chengqian's side, and directly expressed his attitude to the other sons, he will not change the prince, you should rest as soon as possible.

As long as Li Chengqian does not ascend the throne, they will not give up.

"I'm not at ease when I hand over such a big matter to the prince!" Li Shimin shook his head, he was afraid that Li Chengqian would collapse in the face of huge pressure, and once Li Chengqian collapsed, the generals he sent would not be easy to operate, this was not helping people, but harming people.

Li Shimin's eyes have always been on Li Yuanjing, the whole plan was proposed by Li Yuanjing, he is also familiar with the situation in Lingnan, in terms of candidates, in fact, there is really no more suitable than Li Yuanjing.

But now Li Yuanjing obviously wants to push the prince, Li Shimin has no objection to this, even if Li Yuanjing doesn't push, he will find a way to hone the prince in other places, but now......

Li Shimin suddenly smiled and said, "The prince can go, but you also have to go, at a critical time, you still need to stand on the platform for the prince!" ”

Li Yuanjing sighed speechlessly and said, "Brother Chen can go, but this matter must be kept secret, and only some high-level officials will know about it!" ”

Li Yuanjing really didn't want to go, so his limelight would be a little too strong, but Li Shimin's meaning was obviously to let him take the prince, and it was a little inappropriate to refuse.

And then he didn't have anything to do, Dongkaidao had all been handed over to the eldest grandson Wuji, and now it was done well over there, Zheng Zheng Xiangrong's appearance, and Li Yuanjing in the south also pushed it out, and his plan was to build a ship, which would take at least two years or even longer.

Cold treatment is actually the best way to deal with it, and it is also the way that Li Yuanjing hopes the most, but Li Shimin doesn't want it, at least in cultivating the prince, Li Shimin doesn't want Li Yuanjing to be so idle at home, because Li Yuanjing's thoughts are very important, although it is a bit dangerous.

"Yes, I just wronged you!" Li Shimin nodded, of course he understood Li Yuanjing's intentions.

"There is nothing wronged or wronged, the younger brother is his uncle, and it is also appropriate to be a green leaf for the prince!"
